The Romantic Cultivator



The Greater Spirit Realm.

The Goddess Ai Tina, Tang Li and the other 4 immortal divine consorts were also observing the trials of the Spiritas Tower that were taking places for the champions.

They were all an immortal array that were linked to the Spiritas Tower.

At the same time, more than 30 immortal divine consorts in the great hall were all grasping with shock at the difficulty of this trial.

Tang Li said to the Goddess Ai Tina, "Shall we summon Achilles' help in helping to stabilize these arrays of the Spiritas Tower?"

The Goddess Ai Tina weakly said, "I am just thinking of a little blood to make the speculators relish a little. I didn't expect for it to be so much blood…"

Then she smiled bitterly to all the rest of the divine consorts, "Why are you all looking at me like this? This is the first time that I am using the Spiritas Tower. Naturally there may be some small glitches. For this first trial, this is an honest mistake. Do you really think that I want them all dead? This is just a simple trial and all they need to do is to move away from the desert fire, that's all that they need to do. Surely, they are all not dumb to figure out that they are in a huge spirit array that confuses their directions?"

Then she could not resist adding a weak reward, "Even that Great Spirit Hero Ji Yuan can do it, why not the rest?"

Tang Li muttered weakly, "I believe the Goddess Ai Tina…"

The Goddess Ai Tina raised her voice to say with a soft chuckle, "Since it is already too late to change the trial once it has started, we can do it much better for the next trial. I'll be a little mindful that most of them are celestial champions and unskilled in the spirit cultivations…"

"… the best thing that I can do now is to restrict the random mobs from coming to the desert surface. This will reduce the risks for the teams drastically. But I can't do a thing for the sand pit monsters so they have to try to avoid them by walking carefully in the desert. As for the deadly desert sand storms that can burn their profound animus, I can also reduce the frequency of the sand storms…"

"… this should be easier now… but I need all your help to help me to stabilize the profound arrays to do so… and to get the correct setting…"

The first day had finally passed for Ji Yuan and his team and they were now 800 miles from the desert center where the pillars of fire were spurting nonstop. 

Ji Yuan was a little relieved that his strategy had actually worked and they had no fatal encounters for the rest of the day. 

The injuries that were sustained by Xiao Muhan, Yi Ling and Spirit Consort Miao Humei were also much better now especially after they had consumed some healing profound pills and there were no further encounters to deteriorate their injuries. 

Luckily for Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling, they were both saint cultivators.

Ji Yuan learnt that Yi Ling was actually a middle saint cultivator and she was also a medium boundary over Xiao Muhan, so she was actually stronger than him when it comes to recovery. And moreover, her injuries were also lighter than Xiao Muhan.

As for Spirit Consort Miao Humei, even though her injuries were the heaviest at the start and she was also at the weaker 6th Spirit Realm which was the lowest in their team but her deep wounds had already been closed; this was due to her healing talismans. 

Ji Yuan tried to get her to use her healing talismans on Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling but she was forced to decline as she explained that she was actually using physical talismans for her healing and these physical talismans were actually tied to her soul force. Moreover, she had only just 2 left to be used for the duration of the entire trial. Even if she used on Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling, the effect won't be that fantastic. 

Ji Yuan could see her helpless look; she wanted to help but she could not.

But he completely understood this because Spirit Consort Miao Humei looked like a kind maiden. If she helped Xiao Muhan and Yi Ling then she would lose her only life saving measures and moreover she was also a 6th Spirit Realm cultivator; the chances of her getting an injury in the trial was actually much higher than the rest.

Even in their current team, she was also the weakest cultivator.

This trial actually had no day or night.

So even if 1 day had passed, Ji Yuan and his team were still walking slowly around the sand dunes as they tried to find their way out of this burning desert.

Even though they had no more encounters for quite some time now but their profound strength was being slowly sapped to maintain their profound animus against the burning desert which was hotter than desert that Ji Yuan had been to.

And moreover, the longer that they were in this desert, the higher was the demand on their profound strength.

Ji Yuan tried to crack a joke with his senior sister while they were walking together, "You know. It is funny to see my senior sister walking almost naked in the hot desert. But this sight is indeed very beautiful. I bet that many of the speculators are also looking at you right now, senior sister."

All of a sudden Chu Lixue had a sudden startled as she quickly put on a black cloak around her.

Ji Yuan was startled, "Why do you need to do that for, senior sister?"

Chu Lixue weakly said, "You just remind me that my old man may be watching me. He will be extremely angry. You know his temper, am I right?"

Ji Yuan weakly said, "I forget. But maybe he is also a champion?"

Chu Lixue lowered her voice to smile weakly at him, "What do you think?"

Ji Yuan laughed softly, "If I were my old man, maybe I just buy a ticket to the colosseum to check which one of us are inside the Spiritas Tower. This is the best way to obtain information of our group. Hahaha…"

In the city-state of Melnibone, in the crowded colosseum where tens of thousands were all watching the Great Games of the Spiritas Tower.

An old, the White Sword Monarch was with a Spiritas Maiden Xiaotian and he looked angry when he saw that his daughter Chu Lixue was wearing the revealing spiritas clothing and he could even hear many of the spiritas around him exclaiming how beautiful she was. 

Maiden Xiaotian smiling at him, "That maiden is really so astonishing beautiful. Don't you think so? Especially the way she parts her legs to walk. Even as a maiden, I am so envious of her elegant posture. I wonder what is her name?"

She quickly took out a cultivation arena slip that was given to her when she had entered the colosseum, "Hm, she is the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue from Snowy Pavilion City… she is also so blessed to be in the same team as the Great Spiritas Hero Ji Yuan. He is so beautiful looking…" 

The White Sword Monarch: …

He had naturally recognized his daughter Chu Lixue and Ji Yuan. And even Xiao Muhan.

He had also spotted Ling Feiyue, Hua Yunzi, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong inside the Spiritas Tower as well.

According to the arena slip that he got, Shui Xisi, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong represented the city-state of Pandora and they served as champions for the Divine Consort Atalanta.

As for Ling Feiyue and Hua Yunzi, they were representing the city-state of Aiel and they were the champions of the Great Divine Consort Long Fenghuang. 

Maiden Xiaotian saw that the White Sword Monarch was trembling so she smiled, "What is wrong? You must be so happy to see your disciple Ji Yuan again, am I right?" 

The White Sword Monarch answered bitterly, "This is a decadent world!" 

But when he saw the revealing bosoms and the beautiful look of Maiden Xiaotian looking at him, he immediately calmed down and smiled to her, "I don't mean you…"
