The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 390 The 6th Level Trial



When Ji Yuan saw Mo Bei, he was grinning immediately; it was because he had found his ‘scapegoat’.

He laughed, “Senior Mo Bei…”

“Ji Yuan! My lord!” The six maidens interrupted him by surrounding him and asking him, “What did you say to the Death God Mingwang? Why did he leave all of a sudden? What magic did you do?!”

They were extremely intrigued because it did not make any sense to them why would the Death God Mingwang suddenly leave just like this?

Ji Yuan of course could not tell them that the Death God Mingwang is actually Yun Chi and that she had left because he had surprised her by revealing that he had long known of her identity.𝐧𝑜𝚟𝑬𝓁𝐍𝔢xt.𝒸𝞸𝑚

Ji Yuan coolly said, “It is all because of Mo Bei. I told the Death God Mingwang that the most powerful cultivator from the Mo Clan is here. If he is wise enough, he has better fled while he has the time.”

When Mo Bei heard Ji Yuan, he laughed. “Of course I am the most powerful cultivator in the Mo Clan, beside my patriarch Diviner Mo Ming. Who is this Death God Mingwang anyway? Is his background more powerful than my Mo Clan? Hahahaha…”

Ling Feiyue turned to Mo Bei to smile gently, “You’re in luck. This Death God Mingwang is merely a 9th realm immortal cultivator. Thanks to you, we just got ourselves out of an otherwise tricky situation.”

Mo Bei laughed weakly, “You must be joking with me, am I right? There are no immortals here.”

Bai Qianfeng smiled coldly, “You’ve better believed it.”

Yu Jingjing giggled, “That’s right. You’ve better believe it.”

Mo Bei turned to smile bitterly at Ji Yuan, “Junior, your maidens seem to be on a humorous side today.”

JI Yuan laughed, “They are not joking. It is because this Death God Mingwang is an immortal cultivator that is being sent by the Evil Cultivation Palace here. He is extremely formidable. Luckily I am able to use your name to scare him away. But I am afraid that he will be hunting you next instead of me because I’ve told him that Senior Mo Ming dares him to challenge the Mo Clan first.”

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei muttered weakly, “Are you really the great hero that Diviner Mo Ming has said…”

Ji Yuan grinned, “I’ve thought that you said I don’t look like a great hero.”

Mo Bei continued to mutter bitterly, “Junior, I suppose you’re joking with me, am I right? Can you be more serious this time? You will lose your creditability in front of the maidens. Can you imagine what they will think of you in the future? Surely you don’t want them to think that you’re a liar in their hearts, do you?”

Ji Yuan turned to the six maidens to grin, “Senior Mo Bei thinks that I am joking that the Death God Mingwang is an immortal cultivator. What do you think?”

“Ji Yuan is always serious!” Ling Feiyue chuckled.

Ji Yuan chuckled at Ling Feiyue’s smart remarks. He knew that she was lying in front of him but he did not mind her sarcastic wipe at him because he truly loved Feiyue a lot and they had been through a lot together. Lots of fun and intimate sharing together in fact.

He really could not imagine if Ling Feiyue was not around to company him in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth; the two of them had been together for such a long time on a daily basis that he could not imagine being without her.

“You mean you don’t believe my lord?” Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng growled at the same time.

Yu Jingjing was giggling, “Ji Yuan will never lie to us.”

Shui Xisi winked at Mo Bei, “The Death God Mingwang is really a 9th realm cultivator. Thankfully, you’re around.”

Feng Minyue said, “We thank Senior Mo Bei’s aid and your heroism…”

Shui Xisi quickly added, “I will drop you some extra flowers on your death anniversary date…”

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei: …

Ji Yuan had suddenly changed topic by asking, “What is this trial all about? How come you are wandering all over the outer citadel rather than partaking in the trial?”

Mo Bei looked a little sheepish before he answered, “This trial is really not easy at all. I’ve failed it three times.”

“Oh?” Ji Yuan’s interest was piqued immediately. “Tell me about it.”

Mo Bei bitterly said, “Why don’t you touch that black stele over there and you will know?”

Ji Yuan laughed, “With my senior around here, do I even need to rack my brains to decipher any profound writing? Haha…”

Mo Bei frowned, “You’re really…undeserving to be a great saint with your laziness.”

Ji Yuan laughed, “I don’t even know how I have become a great saint. Haha.”

This was the truth.

When he had said that, all the other maidens behind him were all looking sheepish and cursing him secretly; they had all been cultivating very hard yet Ji Yuan was able to become a great saint from an initial saint in less than two years. This does not make any sense to them at all!

He had virtually skipped several centuries of hard work and he had no rich spiritual mountains to back his cultivation!

But secretly they all knew that it must be Xiang Li that had been aiding Ji Yuan because the Goddess’ Tear is the only profound artefact that can perform a miracle.

It is just that they cannot believe that a mostly useless Xiang Li and a lazy Ji Yuan would be able to advance together so rapidly.

Ji Yuan now had two sword spirits, two saintly swords, a ninth rank spirit animus and he had even completed the True Sacred Saint Profound Art.

They just could not believe that Ji Yuan would be this strong now.

Mo Bei said, “In order to enter the inner citadel, we need to obtain the pure spiritual force of the lower mortal realm first. How can this be an easy task?”

Ji Yuan asked, not understanding. “This really doesn’t sound too hard. Or is the spiritual force in the lower mortal realm really hard to obtain?”

Mo Bei frowned, “This isn’t hard? Do you know that only the inner core protégés of the celestial clan are able to access the secret spiritual veins of the celestial clans. This is the same here. No one will allow you to even access the spiritual veins in the first place.”

Ji Yuan smiled weakly, “We are golden celestials. Surely we can just storm into the celestial clan…”

Mo Bei immediately knocked Ji Yuan’s head, “Idiot! If I can do that long ago, will I still be around here?”

Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, “Well, I’ve thought that you’re a gentleman.”

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei: …

Mo Bei solemnly replied, “Indeed I am. That’s why I’ve failed the trial.”

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Mo Bei continued, “This trial is a little tricky. Firstly, your profound strength will be sealed and you will be a just an ordinary mortal cultivator.”

Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, “This already sounds very bad to me.”

“Secondly, you’re not allowed to kill anyone while in the lower mortal realm or you will fail the trial.” Mo Bei continued.

“Thirdly, while you are allowed to retake the trial any number of times but you’re not allowed to kill a single person or else you won’t be able to retake the trial and you will be struck here.”

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, “This doesn’t sound like a big problem.”

Mo Bei frowned as he patted Ji Yuan on his shoulder, “Junior, you’re too young, too simple. You have no idea how infuriating the mortal cultivators are and sometimes you feel like killing them.”

Ji Yuan smiled weakly, “Don’t tell me you’ve killed one already?”

Mo Bei began to laugh weakly, “Of course not! I’m an orthodox cultivator. Haha…”

Ji Yuan turned to the maidens to say, “I guess that this is the time for us to undertake our next trial. Are you all ready?”

All the maidens answered Ji Yuan, “We are all ready anytime!”

Mo Bei muttered, “Good luck to you then.”

The spirit entities nearby echoed, “Enter the golden portal. Please be seated at the upper halls in your meditation pose and when the golden light shines upon you, the trial will starts. It is advisable to touch the black stele first to learn more about the nature of the trial first.”

Ji Yuan and his party quickly touched the black stele before entering the golden portal; it is exactly what Mo Bei had told them. This trial will take them to the lower mortal realm for a trial to extract the spiritual veins.

As Ji Yuan entered the golden portal, he found himself appearing on a small floating platform and he had also spotted the Death God Mingwang sitting on one of the floating discs above him.

Yun Chi was now being surrounded by a golden halo and it means that the trial had already started for her.

At the same time the other maidens had all found themselves in a small floating platform away from each other.

They quietly nodded to each other as they began to seat themselves.

They knew that they were being surrounded by an invisible profound barrier that prevent sounds from being communicated lest they disturb the thousands of cultivators that were floating on the discs who were all taking their trials.
