The Romantic Cultivator

After Ji Yuan had entered a meditation trance, he soon found himself on a standing on top of a serene mountain and in front of them were many pagodas.

He was immediately excited, "I am in the lower mortal now? Wakaka."

According to the black stele, he was allowed to end this trial anytime by severing his profound strength in his heart beat. To the others, he may be dead but in actuality, this body was only a temporary body that was given to him while he was in the lower mortal realm.

Ji Yuan was not nervous about the trial despite being warned by Mo Bei; it is because he has a good mentality when it comes to facing a trial. To him, it is always a new experience and he is only too eager to explore more.

The cultivators may only see the trials as something to be overcome but to Ji Yuan, he is someone that likes to enjoy the progress.

Even Xiang Li was excited because she could feel Ji Yuan's excited vibes. "Woot! We're in the mortal realm now!"

Ji Yuan laughed, "We are going to have a lot of fun in this place."

Fairy Anyang warned him weakly, "My lord, you've better focused on overcoming the trial rather than having fun. Failing the trail will cost you all the fun."

Ji Yuan laughed weakly, "Haha…I've never been to the lower mortal realm. We're going to see the plain lands and the oceans. Muhaha…."

Xiang Li frowned as she looked around Ji Yuan from inside his soul sea, "Erm, Big Brother. We seem to be surrounded by the mountains. Where are the oceans and the plain lands?"

Ji Yuan rubbed his chin as he muttered weakly, "Did we get send to the wrong place…"

"Hey, you over there. Why are you staring in the air like an idiot? Are you lost?" Several shouts interrupted him.

Ji Yuan looked up and saw several men in a Taoist robe.

He smiled bitterly before shouting, "I am indeed lost. Where am I?"

A man hummed coldly, "You are now at the Primeval Mountains the consecrated ground of the True Origin Celestial Sect, one of the seven most powerful celestial clans. Are you ignorant or not? It seems that you lack spiritual roots to even be a cultivator of the way here…"

Another man interrupted, "Since he is already here, this means that he is destined to be a cultivator. Don't be too harsh on him. Maybe he is too tired and that is why. Or maybe he is too excited to have finally found his way up. We should give him a little credit."

The same man turned Ji Yuan to say, "I am Senior Protégé Wu Jinhua. If we are destined to be protégés of the same celestial clan then we will surely meet again."

Then he pointed to a direction, "All you have to do is to travel up this path and you will reach the outer palaces of the True Origin Celestial Sect in no time."

Ji Yuan laughed as he raised his hands to bow politely, "I thank you seniors for guiding my way. Haha."

All of a sudden Wu Jinhua raised his sword and pointed at Ji Yuan, "Wait a minute! Your eyes! Why do you have golden eyes?! Are you a demonic cultivator?!"

When he had said that the other four mortal cultivators had all unsheathed their swords and were pointing at Ji Yuan!

Ji Yuan blinked his eyes as he stared at them blankly; he had forgotten that he may look a little special with his golden eyes.

He tried to exercise his profound strength and was shocked that he could only exercise it to the fourth realm level.

He almost vomited blood!

He could hear Mo Bei's mocking laughter; I told you so!

His golden celestial profound strength had completely been suppressed and now he was only like the strongest mortal cultivator here.

Although it did not affect his recovery and his true regeneration ability but it means that he would have a problem wielding even his own divine swords…

Ji Yuan protested weakly, "I am actually not a demonic cultivator. Please hear me out…"

"Rubbish!" All five cultivators shouted at the same time and they were all leaping around him in a sword formation now!

"Leave him alone." A quiet voice said out of the blue.

Ji Yuan and everyone looked up to see an extraordinary beautiful maiden appearing on top of them.

This extraordinary beautiful maiden was dressed in elegantly in a Taoist robe as well, similar to what the other five men were wearing.

When the five men saw her, they immediately greeted respectfully. "Our respects to Elder Qiu Xiuyu."

The extraordinary beautiful maiden took a nonchalant glance at Ji Yuan before she said, "He doesn't look like a demonic cultivator. He seems to have a respectful celestial background."

Wu Jinhua asked, "He is one of us?!"

Qiu Xiuyu pointed at Ji Yuan's golden robe, "This robe of his must be a profound treasure. I've never seen anything like this before."

Ji Yuan was sudden grinning; of course. I can't even afford this robe myself. It is all thanks to the Golden Prince Hua Yingxiong. Haha.

"Moreover, it is said that if we are able to cultivate to the Ascend Realm, our eyes can turn golden and we will be able to ascend to the Celestial Realm. Since this little fellow here already has golden eyes, maybe it means that he has the affinity." Qiu Xiuyu continued nonchalantly.

Ji Yuan frowned; I am a little fellow? I am older than anyone of you here. I am your grand-daddy!

But he was also appraising this Elder Qiu Xiuyu at the same time.

With a single look, he had already gauged her cultivation realm level; she is at the fourth cultivation realm and is an Immortal Celestial.

Not bad, he thought. She is merely a realm to become a golden celestial. Maybe she will be able to ascend to the Celestial Realm in the future.

Qiu Xiuyu said nonchalantly to Ji Yuan, "You may go now."

Ji Yuan answered, "Well thanks for your guidance. I am Ji…"

Before he could announce his name, she had walked away!

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

He merely waved his hands to the other five cultivators, "Oh well, seniors. See you in the future! Haha…"

Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan, "Big Brother, you seem to have a sudden motivation now after seeing that Elder Qiu Xiuyu."

Fairy Anyang hummed softly, "He is probably thinking of banging his new elder right now."

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

He weakly protested, "I am merely thinking of befriending her and to repay her for intervening to help me earlier. Don't get the wrong idea."

Fairy Anyang giggled as she winked at Xiang Li, "Why is that I can already sense that you are already thinking of banging your new elder in your soul sea now. You mean you are thinking of repaying her with your body?"

Ji Yuan stammered weakly, "Nonsense! No such things!"

Unknown to Ji Yuan, Qiu Xiuyu was quietly watching Ji Yuan as he disappeared into the mountain trails.

She had a flushed look on her countenance; I've never seen such a beautiful man. His eyes are too mesmerizing. What am I thinking? I've sworn to dedicate myself to cultivation. One day I will join my grand patriarch in ascending to the Celestial Realm. All these are just fleeting moments that I should not have any lingering with…

Moreover, although I look young but I am already several centuries old. I will be a laughing stock if I am together with such a young man…
