The Romantic Cultivator

Ling Feiyue asked again, "What did you just say again?"

She had remembered that the first time that she had met Yun Chi, she was purposely declaring Ji Yuan as the greatest hero in the entire celestial and was trying to screw him up in front of the other cultivators.

It was not wrong to say that she did not trust Yun Chi at all.

Even Feng Minyue was taken aback by what Yun Chi had said and there was a look of hostility in her gentle golden eyes; Ji Yuan is now her man!

Bai Qianfeng was now Yun Chi's direct disciple but even then, she too had a look of surprise in her eyes.

Yun Chi had realized that she had a slip of her mouth and she awkwardly laughed before saying, "I've met them on the earlier levels and have a casual talk with them. At that time I didn't know that they are Ji Yuan's enemies from the Evil Cultivation Palace. Look, I am trying to praise Ji Yuan to the moon and to the sun in front of them, that is why! Don't you agree that Ji Yuan… um… is actually such an interesting man?"

Of course she had known these two grand elders from the Evil Cultivation Palace. She had not only recognized their profound animus and had even led them on a mission to kill Ji Yuan in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth when she was the Death God Mingwang. Except that no one else knows of her identity as Yun Chi.

Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue were naturally not convinced and as a matter of fact, they had become even more wary of Yun Chi!

Who were they? They were not some three year old cultivators that could be easily fooled by a casual story. Firstly, Yun Chi's story had a big loop hole; she had only known Ji Yuan in the Red Mansion. After that, she had been separated from Ji Yuan briefly. That would mean that Yun Chi had already betrayed Ji Yuan when she was in the Red Mansion!

Secondly, they were now suspecting that Yun Chi's child was not fathered by Ji Yuan!

Bai Qianfeng was not a schemer because she was a goddess immortal. She could only think straight and she stared at Yun Chi for an answer.

But Yun Chi simply made an wry smile, "Our attention should be their fight, am I right? After all, if these two grand elders have defeated Ji Yuan then we will naturally be their next targets."

"Ji Yuan will never be defeated." This time it was Feng Minyue that had spoken up.

It startled Ling Feiyue to hear so but she stomped her foot to agree, "That is right!"

The two maidens then began to look into each other's golden eyes and there was a sense of appreciation.

Feng Minyue best friend in the party was actually Yu Jingjing and the two of them were as close as sisters. Even though they did not show it when they were parting but there was indeed a look of grief in their golden eyes. Some things were better not be said.

Moreover these two maidens were the most refined in the party. They were the refined types and although Ling Feiyue may seem emotional when it comes to Ji Yuan but even her shouts were soft. There were too many times that Ji Yuan had commented secretly that if Ling Feiyue had wanted him to take her threat seriously then she ought to learn how to shout first, otherwise he would just treat it as music in his ears.

Ling Feiyue turned to look at Bai Qianfeng, "Sister Qianfeng, I've noticed that you are not close to us anymore but you are suddenly really close to her. Why?"

Her here referred to Yun Chi!

Bai Qianfeng looked up from her meditating pose as she forced out a smile from behind her veil, "Am I?"

Silently both Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue were both saying 'YES, YOU ARE!"

Yun Chi smiled with her rosy small lips before she pointed at the Great Beyond Goddess, "Hey, we must maintain our party unity first. Don't forget that we have another opponent here and we don't even know her name or background!"

Ling Feiyue, Feng Minyue and Bai Qianfeng were all looking at the Great Beyond Goddess. Although Yun Chi's diversion was lame but it actually worked!

Somehow they would still need Yun Chi's help to overcome this unknown immortal cultivator first!

Ling Feiyue could not sigh softly as she turned to look at Yun Chi, "Rest assure that I will surely let Ji Yuan know all about your little schemes later!"

Below the valley, Ji Yuan was panting hard; he had displayed on the 500 strokes to test the defenses on the two bearded cultivators that were from the Evil Cultivation Palace but it was in vain!

There seemed to be an invisible protective spatial space around them and it caused his attacks to be deflected.

Those attacks that were strong enough to go through a little were easily deflected by their heaven-step divine swords!

JI Yuan was thinking to himself; should I get a little serious and summon my spirit entity to raise my profound strength to the eighth level and to kill them off with the Sacred Sword Pillar from my newly acquired Sacred Swords Profound Art? These two old freaks are really hard to crack. But if I were to use it now and if they don't die then I am dead. No! I must look for further opportunities or till they have used up their spiritual talismans. I have my own trump cards but I am sure that they have theirs as well…

Great Saint Jin Dahai suddenly said as he attacked several more times on Ji Yuan, "Why don't we all get serious a little?"

All of a sudden he had touched a rotating spirit talisman and it had turned into a flaming runic spirit talisman. That was not all. A red flaming spirit animus had also emerged from his body!

This was a seventh realm desolate spirit animus!

Ji Yuan was already shocked to see this but his startled shock did not end there when Great Saint Jin Qiang had also displayed the very same move!

He immediately knows that these two flaming spirit animus were able to enhance their fire attacks.

The two of them had trapped him in a small space and they were now suddenly throwing the two flaming runic spirit talismans on him!

The two flaming runic spirit talismans had exploded into two huge columns of fire that were more powerful than any seventh rank fire that Ji Yuan had ever since.

Great Saint Jin Qiang coolly said, "Our runic spirit talismans combined with our profound strength and spirit animus is able to increase the might of our seventh rank fire by 6 times. So be prepared to die!"

A single seventh rank fire was already capable of injuring a saint. With double the power, even a great saint could not escape unscathed. Moreover the power of these flaming fire was 6 times two!

Ji Yuan was forced to wrap his saint-step divine sword in a defensive posture and to use his puny profound aura to tank the attacks. But his profound defense was quickly burn off in just a second by these persistent fires!

A quick though paced into his mind as he unleashed the Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon to neutralize the attack before he was slammed with a thunderous impact into the side of the cliffs.

Coughing out a bout of golden blood, he began to slide almost helplessly down the cliff!

Xiang Li was panicky inside of Ji Yuan and she was rebuking Fairy Anyang Xiahou: Didn't you say that you have full mastery of the five elements including poison? Why can't our master tanks these flames?

Anyang weakly said: I did enhance our Lord Consort and Master fire defense and I can even further enhance it with your aid. But you have forgotten to enhance my abilities and you have scolded me? Regardless, our master profound defense is too weak. He isn't a defense cultivator or a power cultivator. How is it possible for him to have strong protective profound defense?

Xiang Li bared her cute little fangs to say: Well, our master is a sword cultivator. They should use their swords indeed. These monkey cultivators that ain't playing fair!

Anyang: …

Outside, even though Ji Yuan was heavily injured by the two flaming attacks and he was stumbling onto the ground in great agony but his strong will force himself to raise almost immediately.

This action caused the two beaded cultivators to be a little surprise.

Ji Yuan had immediately summoned all his profound strength for another Super Heavenly Light of the Coiling Dragon; he was determined to destroy his foes with the remaining vestige of his profound strength!

But to his stunned surprise, the two destroyed flame runic spiritual talismans were reforming in front of him again and were flying toward him again!

What the?!

Isn't spiritual talisman supposed to be only useable once?

He had made a gambit that these two great saints may not be able to launch another attack so soon because they need a little more time than him to muster their profound energies to sync with their spirit animus.

But it seemed that he was wrong!

There was another wave of thunderous flash as the mid-air between them exploded thunderously.

Great Saint Jin Dahai laughed, "Unfortunately we don't want a man to be our living furnaces."

Great Saint Jin Qiang was also smiling as the flame runic spirit talisman began to reform once again, "Our flame talisman can be used a total of 4 times and each time they will evolved to a more powerful version. It is just your bad luck that to run into two of the most powerful dark alchemists from the Dark Cultivation Palace. And also, we are not just any elders of the Dark Cultivation Palace but we are the grand elders."

"We have thought that you may be strong enough to warrant our attention but it seems that we are wrong obviously." Great Saint Jin Dahai could not resist adding. "There is no need for the Death God Mingwang to be involved. What good luck for us and what bad luck for you. So did we burn off all your profound strength?"

Ji Yuan was struggling to stand straight now and he was thinking: Darn it! I didn't even have the strength to use my ultimate sword art now… these two freaks are too formidable. But one to one, I may not lose…

But there was a sudden rascal smile from Ji Yuan.

This caused the two bearded great saints from the Evil Cultivation Palace to be taken by surprise: Is he putting on a brave front?

Ji Yuan said slowly, "I am not dead yet. That means that I am not defeated yet. As long as I still have a little breath, I can still outrun the two of you and I can still deny you the ultimate victory…"

Xiang Li was shocked: Big Brother, you are running away?!

Anyang face-palmed herself: I don't believe…

Great Saint Jin Qiang was suddenly not amused as he flew to intercepted Ji Yuan but Ji Yuan had already leapt away!

Great Saint Jin Dahai shouted loudly, "Don't let this rascal escape! He is known as the fastest runner in the entire Desolate Celestial Fraternity. More so now since he is a great saint now!"

He too was now chasing after Ji Yuan!

But Ji Yuan did not care as he continued to run away, much to the exasperation of his party above who was stunned by what they were seeing.

And moreover Ji Yuan was popping profound pills to regain his profound strength as he ran!

All of a sudden Great Saint Dahai seemed to whisper a divine transmission to Great Saint Jin Qiang.

With a cold smirk, they had suddenly stopped chasing Ji Yuan and were flying up the valley with a tremendous speed toward the Great Beyond Goddess and Yun Chi!

Great Saint Dahai laughed wickedly as he was the first one to catch sight of Yun Chi, "Very well then. I shall make your women into my living furnaces…"

All of a sudden Yun Chi's smooth bare back had spurted large white metallic wings. Great Saint Dahai's head, neck and body were all pierced into a bloody mess and in a single blink of an eye, he was being dismembered.

Not one drop of his blood managed to touch Yun Chi.

This stunned Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue as well!

Yun Chi was not human?!

Yun Chi could only sigh softly; she did not want to reveal her ultimate trump card but she did not want to fight with her profound strength lest her unborn daughter would be hurt.

Great Saint Jin Dahai was shocked beyond beliefs. They all had a defensive profound aura around them and it was even enhanced by their runic spiritual talisman. So how would their protective barriers be pierced so easily?!

He had no time to ponder over this first and moreover when he had suddenly met the golden eyes of the Great Beyond Goddess, he felt very tiny and her profound strength was like a towering cloud that could threaten to snuff his very life.

Therefore he had panicky retreated down the valley.

But before he could reach down the valley, Ji Yuan was upon him and he had pierced through him with a brilliant grand cross of light.

This stunned him because he had no idea why his defense barrier was taken down all of a sudden and before he could ponder further, his head was suddenly sliced off by Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan had used his Sword of Destruction or rather, his soul life force for his attack.

He was actually growling softly as he looked at Yun Chi, "I just need a little more time to test my life force sword with my new ultimate sword art, you know. You don't have to help me."

He had been running away to consolidate his strength for a new fight and he did not think that the two bearded cultivators would suddenly depart to attack his innocent party members.

It seemed to Ling Feiyue and Feng Minyue that Ji Yuan was not terrified of Yun Chi's new look and in fact, he had already known about it!

Ji Yuan was murmuring, "Weird. He seems to be weaker all of a suddenly…"

Fairy Anyang Xiahou proudly announced to Xiang Li and Ji Yuan in their soul sea: That is because their five elements protection didn't extend its protection to your life force sword. That is why!

But Ji Yuan said to them: This fight isn't fair. That goddess maiden had scared the freak out of him and he had not noticed I was coming. Or else it won't be so easy…

Anyang muttered: You really think that you can defeat the two of them together?

Ji Yuan laughed it off: It is only a matter of time. Now we will never know.

Anyang said bitterly: That is so shameless…

But Xiang Li was saying: My big brother is the best!

Anyang: …
