The Romantic Cultivator

Just as the short old man, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the Lovely Empress were all gasping with astonishment that Xiang Li was actually a sentient spirit entity that could talk, she had shyly sped back into Ji Yuan's soul sea by saying aloud. "A powerful dark animus is coming our way!"

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "Luckily there are only the four of us here. Please keep Xiang Li a secret..."

"What do you mean?" The short old man had interrupted him with a bewildered look, "You mean you didn't know that we have more than 30 000 cultivators that are outside and they can view through our imageries?"

The Lovely Empress was blinking at Ji Yuan, "Cheapskate Ji Yuan, you didn't know?"

Ji Yuan stammered weakly, "I didn't know and what is up with this cheapskate name calling?"

Then he solemnly asked his old master, "Seriously?!"

The short old man stared at Ji Yuan, "Do I look like I am joining hands with this 'Innocent Empress' here to joke with you?"

The Lovely Empress had suddenly become extremely flustered when she had heard old freak mentioning her random alias.

Ji Yuan turned to the Smiling Divine Maiden who displayed him a weak faint smile as she nodded slowly to indicate indeed this was the case.

He had slapped his forehead hard now, "Who is the one that says we can't be viewed by anyone in this trial…"

Xiang Li was panicky: You mean everyone outside can see me?!

Anyang muttered weakly: The two of you are the ones that were so confident that no one could view you. Luckily, I am not outside.

Then she turned to Xiang Li to say: Didn't I tell you to wear more clothes?

Xiang Li: Big Brother Ji Yuan is too poor to afford me spirit clothes...wuwuwu…

Ji Yuan:...

Ji Yuan:...

Ji Yuan:...

All of a sudden, the atmosphere outside were quivering with a great pressure and all the gigantic stone bulwarks seemed to be trembling violently.

Then a leathery winged humanoid with a powerful dark animus in the form of a three-headed dragon was seen in the dark sky above.

The powerful dark animus had immediately pronounced him to be a peaked 8th Immortal positioning cultivator!

Typically, 1st to 2th cultivation realm rank (Practitioner, Master Practitioner) are known as mortal cultivators, 3rd to 4th cultivation realm rank (Enlighten Celestial, Immortal Celestial) are known as celestials while 5th to 7th cultivation realm (Golden Celestial, Golden Supremacy and Golden Saint) cultivators are known as golden celestials.

Those cultivators that can cultivate above the 7th level peak, either with profound powers or treasures are all referred to as the immortal cultivators by the celestial cultivators of the Celestial Realm.

The real immortals in the Immortal Divine Realm actually have their own titles according to their immortal cultivations but they are not known to the majority of the cultivators of the Celestial Realm.

The cultivation practitioners of the Celestial Realm will usually refer to themselves as the celestial cultivators or just cultivators regardless of their exact cultivation realms since all of them are from the Celestial Realm.

But when they met with the cultivators from the Mortal Realm, they will then assert their claim as the celestial cultivators while referring the cultivators from the Mortal Realm as the mortal cultivators. In the Celestial Realm, if a cultivator has a 1st or 2nd cultivation realm, they will also be referred to as a mortal cultivator.<novelnext> For more chapters, please visit </novelnext>

Sometimes even a golden celestial will sometimes refer the 1st to 4th rank as mortal cultivators due to their insolent high horse attitude in the Celestial Realm.

In short, the golden celestials are the elites of the Celestial Realm and even Ji Yuan simply refers the normal celestials as mortal cultivators as long as they do not have any golden eyes.

Ji Yuan has a typically arrogant young master mentality because he had lived for hundreds of years with his equally arrogant fellow golden celestials and he is unlike what you will call a goody good MC that won't bully the weak with his arrogant attitudes.

Unlike in most cultivation books, the golden celestials here typically forget that they are once mortal cultivators and become the arrogant golden celestials that they hate, simply because centuries of being the superior beings had caused them to be so.

As for most of the cultivation stories that do not have arrogant MCs, it is because the arrogant young masters are there for the MCs to kill and after killing them, the story cultivation world will only have humble young masters to submit to the MCs.

A big difference is that the cultivators here like to show off their peak cultivations rather than hiding their cultivations like in the cultivations stories simply because they are just plain arrogant and wants to impress the others, especially the maidens. Also, they didn't want to injure themselves and the higher realms that they are, the easier for them to force the weaker cultivators to submit than force them to a deadly fight.

The leathery winged humanoid with a powerful dark animus was naturally Immortal Gu Bugu and he was alerted to the scene by the death of his half-brother the North King.

And now he was naturally looking with great arrogant upon Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the old freak simply because he was an immortal while they were all merely golden celestials.

Typically, a low tier 8th rank Immortal is able to kill 8th rank profound desolate beasts with ease, a middle tier 8th rank immortal is able to kill 9th rank profound beast desolate beasts with ease while an upper 8th rank immortal is able to kill a 10th rank profound beast with ease and a peaked 8th rank immortal like Gu Bugu will be able to kill a 11th rank profound beast with ease.

When he saw the split body of the North King that was lying on the ground, he was immediately enraged as he shouted almightily, "Who is that god-forsaken fellow that has killed the Hunter North King?! Is this the work of the old freak?!"

The Lovely Empress and the short old man were immediately pointing their fingers to Ji Yuan while the Smiling Divine Maiden had lifted her hands defensively to indicate that it was not her.

Ji Yuan began to smile bitterly, "Did I just get betrayed by my own group?"

He had actually wanted to point to his old master but he was a little too hard.

Now Immortal Gu Bugu was pointing his scaly finger at Ji Yuan, "So it is you!"

Ji Yuan was smiling bitterly, "So what if it is me? So what if it is not me? You are so high up while I am on the ground. Do you expect for me to fly up to battle you?"

Immortal Gu Bugu had suddenly raised his right fingers into a claw as he hummed coldly, "You still do not know the profound power of the eighth immortal profound art? It is on a completely different level than a puny celestial like you can ever imagine. As for the 9th Immortal profound art, it is totally out of your 7th rank profound art imagination."

All of a sudden there were powerful energy fluctuations that were glowing in Immortal Gu Bugu's hands; the desolate energies from the vicinity were suddenly attracted and was enveloping around Gu Bugu!

The short old man was shouting to Ji Yuan and the rest, "Our sword energies is unable to reach him. Everyone takes evasive action and run!"

"It is already too late!" Immortal Gu Bugu had suddenly unleashed a powerful dark profound energy that beamed in a straight line to the ground and it looked like a gigantic black spear; it was powered by the howling profound strength of the three-headed dark dragon spirit animus.

The Smiling Divine Maiden raised her defensive profound arts to her strongest profound strength as she shouted panicky, "Ji Yuan…"

But before she could finish, she was swept aside by a thunderous dark light that exploded and enveloped everything as it swallowed up everyone including Ji Yuan, the Lovely Empress and the short old man…

When this powerful dark profound energy had struck the ground, the entire rows of stone blocks below and by the sides were all pulverized by the violent dark energies!

Immortal Gu Bugu coolly stared at the messy destruction that was wrought by him, "This is the true powers of the immortals and even a 11th rank profound beast was not able to withstand the profound attack of this stance of mine, much less a seventh rank cultivator like all of you."

Indeed, when some of the debris were cleared, he could see the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress, the old freak and Ji Yuan were all lying flat on the ground and they were scattered all over the place.
