The Romantic Cultivator

Ji Yuan was now standing in the battle arena.

Today was his turn to battle an opponent from one of the three opposing factions.

As Ji Yuan appeared inside the battle arena, his opponent from the Water Faction had also appeared and he was smiling; it was because his opponent was Ji Yuan who was supposedly a dying cultivator who had overused his life force energies.

He was smirking; it is my great fortune today to meet a stupid cultivator that has been burning his life essences. Plus he has never been defeated before. Today I am going to be a rich cultivator!

Ji Yuan on the other hand was smiling broadly. It was because he was still thinking about Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing; they had suddenly become best of friends overnight.

He had suddenly noticed that there was no longer any ice between Feng Minyue and him anymore; she had readily listened to him while sharing her experiences in the Nine Celestial Fraternity.

Even Yu Jingjing was also opened with him and he had suddenly realized that he had wronged Yu Jingjing on their first meeting.

He had readily apologized to her and she had also accepted his apologizes.

Ji Yuan was not a fool; he knew that these two maidens seemed to have developed affections for him and he welcomed it.

And right now his golden eyes were looking at them tenderly.

It was as though these two maidens had already pledged their hearts to him.

Yu Jingjing, as he realized later, is actually the number one beauty in the Endless Celestial Fraternity and she is from one of the top three celestial sects in her celestial fraternity.

Even though Ji Yuan had no proof that she was speaking the truth but it was alright to him; he doesn't mind getting tricked by a great beauty once in a while.

After all, he got nothing to lose literally; he is dead poor and his only precious profound treasure is his saint-step divine sword which can be recalled by him and only be used by him.

He was actually thinking; I got nothing to lose anyway and she got nothing to gain from me actually.

But the truth was, he was beginning to like Yu Jingjing a lot.

Yu Jingjing is actually quite frank and amicable. She is like a heroine that tries to mediate peace whenever she goes.

That was why previously she had tried to interfere with her music when Ji Yuan had first met her. But a misunderstanding between the two of them caused Ji Yuan to think that she was mocking him.

But she had since apologized sincerely to Ji Yuan, "I really never know that such a saint figure will exist in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity."

She was also in awe of Feng Minyue as well after learning of her name. "You're really that Great Saintess Feng Minyue the Fragrance Princess?"

Her celestial sect as a collector of celestial information on the saintly cultivators in the Celestial Realm naturally have Feng Minyue's records in the archives.

She had since become best of friends with Feng Minyue as well and they were now as close as sisters.

As Ji Yuan looked up to the speculator stand at Yu Jingjing, he had a smile as he thought; Well, on accord that we are bosom friends now, I'll forgive you for lying to me about your immortal beard recipe. Now I know that you're only trying to get my attention. Haha."

He took a quick look at the rest of his beloveds; Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi before he took a step forward to meet his opponent.

His opponent continued to smirk coldly, "Ji Yuan, I am Qiu Wuji. Today is the day that I will send you to meet your maker. If you are wise enough to quickly surrender, I will preserve your full corpse…"

All of a sudden Ji Yuan had taken out his saintly divine sword with his left hand from his spatial ring and had thrust it into the ground with a loud thunderous shockwave that shook the entire battle arena.

Everyone was startled and reacted with great shock when they suddenly saw a saint-step divine sword that was suddenly placed in front of them!

"This…"

"Impossible…"

"There can't be a saint sword in the Celestial Realm…"

"How come he has a saint sword?"

"Look, his saint sword has a double halo…"

"This is…impossible…"

"It is hard enough to wield a saint sword and he has actually divine harmonized with his saint sword?!"

"Is he is a genius or a monster?"

"He is a great saint with a saint sword and a sword spirit…"

Ji Yuan had indeed displayed his sword spirit as well as his divine harmonization with his saintly divine sword.

Ling Feiyue along with Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi were looking at one another; they kinda have been expecting this for quite a while but they did not know why Ji Yuan had chosen to reveal his trump card at such an early stage?

At the same time everyone could feel Ji Yuan's sword intention in their minds and they were trembling; if that Qiu Wuji attacks Ji Yuan, he would be dead in an instant!

Sword intentions can only be formed only if a cultivator could reach the highest pinnacle of sword cultivation and only a sword saint can achieve it.

This Ji Yuan is actually a Sword Saint!

The only reason why Ji Yuan's sword intentions could even reach all the way to the speculator stand was because he was a Super Sword Saint now, having overcome the Trial of the Sword Saint twice over and he had obtained the terrifying sword intentions of the Malevolent God Domain.

In short, his will through his sword which was most commonly called 'Sword Intention' was able to gain a physical form in the minds of the speculators.

Everyone could even immerse themselves as a cultivator that was facing Ji Yuan and they could even see Ji Yuan's sword strokes flashing if they were to react in the next instant.

Only the strongest cultivators were unmoved by Ji Yuan's sword intention as they could still parry off his next couple of moves but many of them were still being unsettled because Ji Yuan's sword intentions were constantly changing and they were unsure what would happen after the next couple of moves since they could not see the future past the couple of moves!

Many saint cultivators were gasping now and breaking into cold sweat now;

"I can only see 16 possible moves if I were to react against Ji Yuan…"

"You are much better than me. I can only see 5…"

"I can see at least 47 moves…"

"If Ji Yuan moves first, the number of moves will increase…"

Chu Ren was sighing; he was trying to observe Ji Yuan's battles so that he could find a chance to defeat Ji Yuan but he was now unsure. It was because all of them seemed to have underestimate Ji Yuan because they were never his actual opponent in the first place; they did not seem to realize how terrifying Ji Yuan's speed with his sword really is.

His experience had taught him by looking at his opponent's leg posture that Ji Yuan must be a right-hander but he was only using his left hand. Therefore his speed with his right hand must be even faster.

He had suddenly realized that he had no hope of defeating Ji Yuan anymore.

Previously Ji Yuan did not even unsheathe his saintly divine sword and had already defeated him soundly.

When Ji Yuan had unsheathed his saintly divine sword, the profound power that could be felt was really terrifying!

Hi opponent Qiu Wuji had completely broken down in cold sweat. It was because the sword intention that he saw when he reacted was Ji Yuan killing him with several burst of his sword energies.

The profound energies that could be unleashed by a saintly divine sword were so terrifying that all his profound defenses were shattered and he would be killed even before he could be near Ji Yuan…

Qiu Wuji stammered with fear, "I'll surrender…please don't kill me…"

Ji Yuan had clearly anticipated it as he quickly said to everyone, "I don't want to kill anyone but if you were to force my hand, don't blame me for using my saint-step divine sword on you. And by the way…"

He had suddenly unleashed his life force energies with his saintly saint sword as he sent a huge streak of brilliant light across the invisible dome, shaking the entire battle platform!

Not once but thrice, stunning everyone!

Ji Yuan had used his life force sword three times in a row and he was still smiling awesomely.

"Did you see that…"

"He has used his life essences three times?!"

"That is impossible…"

All the speculators, including Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and Mo Bei were all stunned by what they were seeing as well.

Did they just see Ji Yuan using his life force sword three times in a row seemingly without being affected by anything? Then why did he bleed from his nose the past couple of times in his previous fights?

Ji Yuan was so awesome that all the fighters in the entire battle platform were all staring blankly in the direction where Ji Yuan was and forgetting that they were all in the middle of a fight.

Although Ji Yuan's voice was not loud and he had weak internal profound strength to resonate his voice across the battle arena but everyone was struggling with their internal profound strength to hear his golden words.

When one is powerful, there is no need for powerful internal profound strength to make their voices heard. All they need is their opponents' internal profound strength to be strong to make themselves heard.

Ji Yuan's voice may be the sound of needles dropping but today his voice was like a drum in the ears of many of the geniuses.

As Ji Yuan disappeared from view, having been sent out by the Trial after his victorious battle, many of the cultivators on the Fire Faction were now shouting with great fervor. "Sword Saint Ji Yuan! God of Songs Ji Yuan!"

Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing could not believe how powerful a cultivator Ji Yuan is now.

Yu Jingjing was gasping nonstop and she was flushing; she had never thought that Ji Yuan will actually be a top level sword saint and this caused her passionate heart for Ji Yuan to deepen…

As for the other maidens, they could not believe what they were all seeing; actually Ji Yuan's life force sword was just an extension of his sword energies and were nothing extraordinary.

If he imbued his life force energies into his real profound sword art like the Heavenly Light of the Coiling Light or any of his other more powerful profound sword arts, they knew that it would be even more devastating!

Even for them, they were muttering with great bewilderment that Ji Yuan did not seem to be weaker than them nowadays.

Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi liked Ji Yuan not because he was a powerful cultivator. They were stronger in cultivation than him as they have plenty of cultivation resources.

In their eyes, Ji Yuan was poor and they were determined to help him because he was their lord and of course, they all liked his beautiful looks and romantic poems as well.

Bai Qianfeng was naturally way stronger than Ji Yuan but she was suddenly unsure now because the ability to use life force energies without being affected by it was like a cheat plus Ji Yuan had a saint-step divine sword that was also impossible to obtain even in the Immortal Realm.

Naturally she was also not attracted by his mere beautiful looks because she valued powerful cultivators more and the immortal cultivators had plenty of beautiful men; she was just very touched by Ji Yuan in the past and willingly become his consort.

But today she was smiling beautifully because Ji Yuan is now a worthy and compatible fit for her, because he is an awesome and powerful cultivator now.
