The Romantic Cultivator



When Ji Yuan had given a loud painful yell, Li Yifen and Jun Qianfeng could only see Ji Yuan was frozen in place; this caused them to be greatly perplexed but since no harm was visible on Ji Yuan, they could only quietly watch behind him.

The reason why they did not try to disturb Ji Yuan was also because they had thought that Ji Yuan was deep in focus as he tried to unravel the invisible threads of the immortal arrays in this place.

But actually, Ji Yuan was simply talking in his soul sea.

And he was talking to a little girl in black dress that was called Little Yui. 

He had given up on consulting Xiang Li for any meaningful advice because she was not plainly not connecting to his situation at hand and was completely useless as usual.

But Xiang Li's calmness had also given Ji Yuan a clue that this dark sword or profound darkness did not mean him any harm; as the Goddess Tear, Xiang Li is averse to any evil presence and anything that did not turn her off means that he is quite safe to interact with it. 

Ji Yuan asked Little Yui, "Erm, I am your master?"

Little Yui nodded quietly, "You are the reincarnation of my master. Little Yui has waited for a long, long time for you to return. When master is broken that fateful day, Little Yui is also broken. And she seals me in that dark place."

Ji Yuan was smiling weakly; that place was actually the Goddess Star Palace and the Great Beyond Goddess had sealed the dark sword that the True Devil God had carried in it. 

He slowly said to Little Yui: I actually don't remember much about the True Devil God and I don't really care much. I am Ji Yuan. Little Yui, do you want to follow me from now onward?

Little Yui chuckled adorably: Little Yui is willing to follow master again! I am your sword! Your Little Yui! Master finally remembers me!

Ji Yuan muttered to himself: I didn't remember you. These spirit fairies are so hard to communicate with…

But Little Yui giggled: Of course, master remembers me or else master won't make Little Yui your sword again.

Xiang Li immediately protested: Little Yui, I am Big Brother's sword, alright? 

Little Yui looked at Xiang Li and giggled, "I know Big Sister Xiang Li. You are master's faithful sword too. You have saved master many times.

Xiang Li was suddenly giggling too: I did? Heehee. Yes I did. From now onward, I am your Big Sister Xiang Li! 

Anyang frowned: Don't forget about me too.

Little Yui giggled: You are Second Big Sister Anyang. Second Big Sister Anyang is also master's faithful sword and saved master many times too!

Anyang giggled with great delight: Little Yui, then you shall be our little sister Little Yui. And Aura the youngest.

Aura muttered: I am the youngest?! 

Anyang ignored Aura and did not reply to her. 

Both Aura and Little Yui are actually much older than Anyang and Xiang Li but spirit fairies all have a different growth rate. So technically, Anyang and Xiang Li are both older because they are more mature while Little Yui and Aura are both still little children.

Ji Yuan asked Little Yui: What is this golden coffin in front of me and this voice?

Little Yui happily answered: Master, you ought to touch it. 'He' is waiting for you to touch the golden coffin to communicate with you. This is your golden avatar.

Ji Yuan was looking quite startled: My avatar? 

Little Yui nodded: Indeed! When master's real body died, all your avatars will also perish as well. This avatar carries your last will and create a sanctuary for you. To this day, it has been waiting for you to return. 

She paused to add: Your avatar won't hurt you. So master can just walk forward without any worries. Little Yui is also awakened because this avatar has restored Little Yui too…

Little Yui would not have awakened so soon but the avatar of this place had freely given her the soul energies of the spirit divine relics that were at the Outer Sanctuary. 

And hence, Little Yui was now able to manifest in front of Ji Yuan now. 

Ji Yuan looked a little perplexed but he got bolder as he stepped forward to touch the golden coffin that was in front of him.

This time round, he was no longer moving so cautiously and he had walked casually for more than 100m before he finally reached the chained golden coffin.

He felt no fear but a weird sense of familiarity as he placed his hand gently on the suspended golden coffin that was in the air.

As he touched the golden coffin, his soul seemed to be taken to a great void and he was floating in the darkness.

All of a sudden, he could see a dark figure that had appeared in front of him and there was a faint outline of a golden animus around this dark figure. 

The dark figure said solemnly, "I am you and you are me. Although the golden body in this golden coffin isn't the real you but it is condensed with your last remaining profound strength. Today, I will be returning your immortal golden body to you."

Ji Yuan blinked his eyes, "My immortal golden body?"

The dark figure explained solemnly, "Even though you are already carrying the true golden body of the True Devil God but your immortal golden body has not fully manifest yet. Your avatar's golden body will be able to awaken your golden body to the immortal golden body. Today, I shall be returning your immortal golden body to you…"

Ji Yuan interrupted him, "Then you will die right?"

The dark figure merely said, "This is my destiny to wait for you to return. I am merely your avatar."

Ji Yuan slowly nodded, "But I am curious about something. Can you tell me before you are gone? Why are you here and what is the relationship between the Ancient Race and the Spiritas Race?"

The dark figure said, "They are the same. The True Devil God is the ancestor god of the Spiritas Race. It is he who suppressed the cultivations of the Ancient Race to create the Spiritas Race. While the Ancient Race can cultivate the infernal energies and the spiritual energies, the Spiritas Race can only cultivate the spiritual energies…"

Then he added, "This place is where the first of the Spiritas Race had come from. The priesthood of the Ancient Race is actually dedicated to the True Devil God. We are linked in mind and soul. You actually want to ask me about the profound darkness, am I right?"

Ji Yuan chuckled weakly, "That's right."

The dark figure seemed to smile, "The profound darkness is actually the great abyssal energies which only the True Devil God can wield. The True Devil God is actually the true master of all the abyssals…"

Ji Yuan was shocked, "The true master of all the abyssals?!"

The dark figure nodded slowly, "He is the first of all the abyssals and the Ancient Race is the second. The subsequent abyssal races are all corrupted by the infernal energies and are all monstrosities unlike the True Devil God and the Ancient Race. That is why the True Devil God wanted to create a new realm that is incorruptible by the abyssal energies. That is why he created the Spirit Divine Realm and Immortal the Greater Spirit Realm." 

Ji Yuan was startled, "So the True Devil God is the creator of the Spirit Divine Realm and the Immortal Greater Spirit Realm…"

The dark figure answered, "The new realm is supposed to be a paradise for the Spiritas Race and will be freed from abyssal influences of the abyssal worlds. Hence, it is hidden from the abyssals that can feed upon the spiritual energies. My role here in this realm is to convert the Ancient Race to the Spiritas Race and to bring them to the new Spirit Realm."

Then he said sadly, "But before this great work can be done, the other Gods of the Abyssals had waged war upon the Immortal Entropy Realm. Although they cannot find the Spirit Realm that the True Devil God had created but they had found the Immortal Entropy Realm. Hence, rift portals were opened from the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm to the Immortal Entropy Realm. And so began a terrible immortal war between the Chao Race of the Immortal Entropy Realm and the Great Abyssal Race of the Immortal Great Abyssal Realm."

His voice had suddenly become woeful, "Even the True Devil God could not help but be embroiled in this immortal great war…"

Ji Yuan could not resist a murmur, "So that is how I've met the Goddess Destiny?"

The dark figure looked startled, "You remember Destiny? You have met her?"

The dark figure scanned Ji Yuan's memories before he said solemnly, "It seems that you do not really know who Destiny really is."

Ji Yuan: ???

He muttered weakly, "I know that she is an immortal oracle. Her divination seems quite accurate…"

The dark figure said solemnly, "She is the Chaos Empress Sovereign Destiny of the Chaos Race. She is the ruler of the entire Chaos Race. The two of you have fought numerous times during the great immortal wars of the two races." 

This time, Ji Yuan was truly astonished as he weakly muttered, "She is this powerful?! Then why is she in the Spirit Divine Realm…"

He was now panicky thinking if he has offended Destiny now, whether unwittingly or wittingly. 

The dark figure answered him, "I have no answers for that as it probably happened after your death. But do you want to know why you have died?"

Ji Yuan muttered weakly, "That is a good question…"
