The Romantic Cultivator



It was not before long that Ji Yuan, Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng and Cardinal Harpy Li Yifen had walked 9 miles at the long great hallway.

It took them over 2 hours. 

And yet, there was no sight that any spirit divine weapon would appear.

This caused Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng to look at little panicky as she hurried her eyes at the numerous relics that were by the sides.

She could not help muttering, "Maybe bring this lowly human slave here is a jinx to me."

Li Yifen pretended not to hear her as she walked on her own. 

Ji Yuan could not resist back a grin, "Maybe you are not destined to own a spirit divine weapon. Not everyone is able to wield one, you know."

Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng stared coldly at Ji Yuan, "Although I may not be able to wield one but the Great Patriarch Sword Saint will be able to wield it for sure."

Ji Yuan frowned, "Why do you want to come here to obtain a spirit divine weapon and then only to give it to him?"

Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed coldly, "He is going to ascend soon and I want to give it to him as a gift so that he will remember me for life."

Ji Yuan: …

"You know," he could not resist saying. "He is probably lying about the part about ascending to the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm."

Well, he was actually lying about that as he needed to find an excuse to leave at that time. 

Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng hummed, "Do you think everyone is a liar like you?"

Ji Yuan: …

He was exasperated: I will be a liar?! I have never lied before in my life! 

Anyang covered her face as she pointed out: My lord, that statement itself is a lie. Stop deceiving yourself.

Ji Yuan pretended not to hear Anyang and he felt indignant that he had been wronged. After all, he felt that he was quite a righteous cultivator.

Just as he was about to protest loudly to Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng, there was a soft yell that had come from Li Yifen.

It was because a beautiful divine sword with a soft glowing animus was suddenly floating toward Li Yifen and she was astonished.

It was also a powerful celestial-step divine sword! 

Li Yifen was astonished as she caught hold of the divine sword, "This… it just come to me. I have no idea why…"

There was a delightful look that was on Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng as she hurried to Li Yifen, "If you have no need for it, may I have this spirit divine sword?"

Li Yifen rolled her eyes sheepishly before she tossed the spirit divine sword to Jun Qianfeng, "If you really want it, you can have it then."

She actually did not mind at all since she was not here to look for any spirit divine weapons.

Ji Yuan was also looking quite sheepish: Although a celestial-step divine sword is truly a high grade divine sword, I don't really need one. Maybe my other maidens can have it if you really want to give it to me…

Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng looked delighted as she took the spirit divine sword.

She began to mutter happily, "Although he already have two emperor-step divine swords but a spirit divine sword is a sentient sword and may be able to protect him through his ascension…"

Ji Yuan just rubbed his chin as he said to himself: Well, in order to pass the fake Great Patriarch Sword Saint this spirit divine sword, you have to find him first. This may be a little difficult because I don't intend to appear again. But then, since you want to give it to me, I don't really mind appearing just once in front of you to get a free celestial-step divine sword…

As he was pondering this, there was a sudden creaking sound in front of them that startled them.

It was because the gigantic iron gates that were in front of them were being activated and they could hear the loud mechanic swings of the iron gates!

Li Yifen was stunned, "It seems that the gates of the Inner Sanctuary are opening. How is it possible?"

Even Cardinal Confidant Jun Qianfeng was looking quite stunned, "But isn't this iron gate supposed to require 7 golden signet rings to open?"

But as she said so, she was further startled to see that there was a carpet of luminous light that appeared from the ground of the gigantic iron gate to the foot of Ji Yuan; it was as though Ji Yuan was being welcomed to enter the Inner Sanctuary.

When Li Yifen had saw this scene, she was also stunned. 

Ji Yuan had caused the Inner Sanctuary to open?

And Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng were now both staring at Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan had also saw the carpet of light that had appeared in front of him and he was staring back at them as he said bitterly, "Don't look at me like this. I actually didn't do anything at all. Maybe this light appears to anyone that appears close to it."

Li Yifen said solemnly, "This shouldn't be happening at all… this place is protected by immortal arrays that can withstand the test of time itself."

Jun Qianfeng nervously turned to Li Yifen to ask, "Should we check the Inner Sanctuary? Maybe there are more powerful spirit divine weapons that are inside the Inner Sanctuary?"

Li Yifen turned to her to say, "Maybe you should ask Holy Harpy 4444 first."

Jun Qianfeng unhappily asked, "Why should I ask a lowly human?"

Li Yifen solemnly said, "Because the Inner Sanctuary seems to welcome this lowly human and not us. If you barge inside with this attitude of him, the Inner Sanctuary may even be hostile to you. Then I rather that you stay here with me or we leave this place."

Jun Qianfeng looked startled as she stared with shock at Ji Yuan but this time, she dared not murmur a word.

Ji Yuan was perplexed, "The Inner Sanctuary may not open just for me. Why don't we explore it together?"

Li Yifen sighed softly before she said solemnly, "You may not know this but the Inner Sanctuary is a sentient place. It seems to only welcome you."

Ji Yuan looked startled, "It is sentient?"

Li Yifen slowly nodded, "Why do you think that it has opened even without collecting the 7 golden signet rings? Even if we have the 7 golden signet rings to enter the Inner Sanctuary, the place may not welcome us. Why do you think the current Cardinals and the past Cardinals didn't have the chance to even enter the Inner Sanctuary for the past thousands of years?"

Ji Yuan asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

Li Yifen said solemnly, "Even if we have the 7 golden signet rings to enter the iron gate in front, there is still another gate beyond it. If the Inner Sanctuary doesn't want us to enter, that gate won't even open for any of us. But today…"

She pointed at the iron gate and pointed back at the carpet of light that led to Ji Yuan, "But today, it seems to be opened just for you. Who exactly are you?"

Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and answered weakly, "Erm, I am just a lowly human slave."

Li Yifen: …
