The Romantic Cultivator



In the Greater Spirit Realm.

The Goddess Ai Tina was in panic and so did the rest of the immortal divine consorts like Tang Li; it was because they had all coughed out golden blood!

The 24 immortal divine consorts that were watching by the side were all startled and were panicky.

"Goddess Ruler Ai Tina! Are you alright?"

"What is going on here?"

"This is a back lash?"

"Impossible… what is causing this?"

It was because the Goddess Ai Tina had suddenly lost control of the soul core of the Spiritas Tower and she was greatly startled as she held weakly onto her heaving breasts. 

"Profound darkness… this is the profound darkness that has suddenly appeared in our profound arrays… it attacks us…"

Tang Li was gasping with shock, "What is going on here?"

The Goddess Ai Tina quietly said, "Summon Immortal Divine Lord Achilles immediately. I need his divine consult."

Immediately one of the immortal divine consorts answered, "Let me go and fetch the Immortal Divine Lord Achilles."

Then she said to the other immortal divine consorts, "We have been too careless. I am careless. At first, I thought that this may be my fault for unable to properly seize control over the Spiritas Tower. But I am so wrong…"

"The Spiritas Tower is divided into 5 floors. The first two floors are easier for us to manage but the 3rd, 4th and 5th floor contain the more powerful profound darkness which only the Supreme Divine Gods could control because there were 6 of them…"

"But for us, we are unable to contain the profound darkness that is within the Spiritas Tower… I doubt that even Achilles can contain it because I have found residues of the profound arrays that are left behind by the Supreme Divine Gods to fully control the Spiritas Tower."

Tang Li was startled, "What is this profound darkness that is inside the Spiritas Tower?"

The Goddess Ai Tina was quiet for a while as she weakly continued to read from their profound arrays, "I do not really know. But it seems to be a nefarious being that is contained by the Supreme Divine Gods. Now that they are no longer around, it is difficult for us to contain it.…"

She had suddenly remembered that Xu Yifei had once told her that she had sensed profound darkness during her ascension and that was why she had hesitated. It seemed to her now that this profound darkness was actually the one that she had sensed.

Tang Li said weakly as golden blood drooled from the side of her lips, "If we stop the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower then we can contain this profound darkness, right?"

The Goddess Ai Tina said bitterly, "This is a good solution but unfortunately, we have already lost control of the Spiritas Tower. This Spiritas Tower seems to have a sentient conscious on its own now."

Tang Li was shocked, "Then what may happen to the champions that are inside the Spiritas Tower?"

The Goddess Ai Tina said weakly, "The dead champions shall be recycled to feed this profound darkness thing. As for the champions that are alive, I do not know. It is because the Spiritas Tower is now deciding on their fates now and we have no control over it anymore. We can only watch for now…"

For the next 2 days, Ji Yuan had spent his time chatting with Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan.

There were 22 other champions that have survived the second trial, one of them was Old Yang Batian the champion of Ding Jie'Er.

Old Yang Batian merely chuckled to Ji Yuan when he had appeared in the arena, "Why am I not surprise to see you again, Brother Ji Yuan. Hahaha…"

Ji Yuan laughed too but he quickly returned to his own group which consisted of only Chu Lixue and Xiao Muhan.

In the past few days, Chu Lixue was the only maiden that was with Ji Yuan and while she was with him, she had developed an attachment to him that caused her heart to falter when she did not see him. 

She did not think that she would trust a man so much, especially to a man that tried to destroy her Bliss City.

Ji Yuan on the other hand had fully regained his profound strength and he was quite impressed by the little parasite worm inside his inner spiritual sea.

He said to Anyang and Xiang Li: This parasite worm sure is impressive.

Anyang said weaky: It is a spirit plant and not a worm.

Xiang Li giggled: It is a divine tree and not a spirit plant.

Ji Yuan laughed as he declared: Worm, plant or tree, it doesn't matter. We should give it a name instead.

The Hundred Blazing Rose looked delighted: Mas…master is going to give me a name? Woah!

Ji Yuan answered: Right! I shall give you a proper name. Everyone has a name and you should have a name as well.

Xiang Li asked curiously: So, the name of this divine tree is Worm?

Ji Yuan: …

The Hundred Blazing Rose: …

Anyang: …

Xiang Li asked: Not Worm? Is it Parasite then?

Ji Yuan: …

The Hundred Blazing Rose: …

Anyang: …

Ji Yuan frowned: Xiang Li, you ae really bad at naming. I actually want to name this parasite worm as Maggot.

Anyang: …

The Hundred Blazing Rose was delighted as it struggled to speak amidst its excitement: Woah! This sounds…like a great name! So, from now onward…I am called Mag…got!"

Anyang interrupted: No, your new name shall be Aura. 

Ji Yuan frowned: We don't know if this thing is a maiden or a man yet…

The Hundred Blazing Rose giggled: I am a… maiden.

Ji Yuan began to frown with a plenty of disbelief: Are you sure about this? 

The Hundred Blazing Rose asked curiously, "Mas… master, you can't tell from my naked look?

Ji Yuan: …

How the heck can I tell?! You're just a plant! 

Anyang giggled: Aura is a maiden. I am certain.

Xiang Li was also giggling: That's right. Aura is a maiden. 

Ji Yuan frowned: How the heck can the two of you able to tell?! 

Xiang Li giggled: Big Brother, you can examine her soul core and you can tell. It is really simple.

Ji Yuan: …

Xiang Li, I am not a spirit entity like you….

But he quickly announced: Alright then. Aura shall be your name from now onward. 

The Hundred Blazing Rose cried: But… master… I like the name Mag…got…

Ji Yuan said bitterly: Aura is a better name. Maggot is a preposterous name actually. Hahaha…

Then he added curiously: I am actually curious. How come Aura can talk? I didn't know that spirit plant can talk?

Aura chuckled: I am…a… divine tree!

Ji Yuan weakly said: Alright then. Aura is a divine tree…

Xiang Li giggled: She is really ancient. Millions of years old.

Ji Yuan frowned: Tell me in term of my celestial age.

Xiang Li and Anyang answered at the same time: Same as a 7 year old celestial maiden. 

Ji Yuan almost wanted to bang his head immediately.

He said weakly to Aura: You know Aura. I am old enough to be your grand daddy…
