The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 642 The Hollow World (3)



All of a sudden, a monstrous desolate beast with armored body that stood upright burst into view. Instead of having a pair of forearm, it had six evil looking blades instead. It looked horrid and more like a monster from the abyss.

The armor of this beast was hissing immediately and it was drooling acidic saliva.

Ji Yuan immediately flashed toward this monstrous desolate beast with his two emperor-step divine swords and he was only as tall as its bended knees.

There was a brilliant flash of light as he unleashed his grand cross on the body of this monstrous beast before he was forced to evade out of its way when the four claws began to swing and exploded the ground around him!

To the startled shock of Ji Yuan, he had only made a dent to its armor and it was quickly regenerating.

Yun Chi immediately said, “This is a 10th rank desolate monster. Be careful!”

Ji Yuan was startled, “10th rank?”

He quickly turned to look at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng as he called out hastily, “What the heck? 10th rank? Yun Chi, Qianfeng. The two of you can beat this thing? Our profound strength doesn’t seem to be restricted in here.”

Yun Chi had already flashed to Ji Yuan and had pulled him away, “Although we can win this thing but we need to run first!”

Bai Qianfeng had already told the rest of the ground, “Run!”

Ji Yuan was startled, “Run? Why?”

Yun Chi answered as she pulled Ji Yuan just in time away as the ground behind them exploded loudly into a wall of profound energies, scattering and raining debris and dust onto them. “There are more of these things around this place. If I am not wrong, then this is a trap.”

Ji Yuan was startled, “This is a trap?!”

Yun Chi said quietly, “The instant that we appear in this place, we are all forced to reveal our profound animus. If I am not wrong, then this place is a place to trap the immortals.”

Bai Qianfeng had also turned to say to Yun Chi and Ji Yuan, “We ought to escape from this place. All of us.”

The rest of the cultivators in the group were all startled, “This is a trap?”

Ling Feiyue was startled, “Who will design such a trap?”

The Smiling Divine Maiden hurled a blast of sword energy behind her and at the desolate monster that was still chasing them, “We have better shake this monster first before we do any talking.”

After 20 minutes, they had finally shaken off the desolate monster away from them in another location by suppressing their profound animus.

The short old man aka the White Sword Monarch said breathlessly, “The laws of this place is completely different from the Celestial Realm. In this place, we have to consume our profound strength to suppress our profound animus. This is really tiring.”

Ling Feiyue smiled weakly, “Luckily we have Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng here…”

Shui Xisi was smiling bitterly, “10th rank desolate monster?! What kind of a joke is this. This is more tiring than I’ve thought.”

Zhi Jiugong said quietly, “The higher our cultivation realm, the more profound strength that we need to suppress our profound animus. But if we don’t have our profound animus, how do we fight or even run?”

The Lovely Empress bitterly said, “Then we have to keep our profound animus up and this is like advertising our whereabouts to everyone in this place. Moreover I am betting that their divine sense is able to sense miles away.”

Ji Yuan said weakly, “Then what do you suggest we do now?”

Yun Chi answered sharply, “We need to use our golden talismans to escape from this place as soon as possible. And I mean for real. We are leaving this place.”

Ji Yuan was startled, “We are leaving so soon?”

Bai Qianfeng nodded, “If we do not leave, then we will surely die in this place. There is no doubt about it.”

Yang Mi who had the lowest cultivation realm, began to answer weakly, “I am in for leaving this place.”

She looked exhausted and she was a saintess.𝑵𝑂𝑽𝔢𝗅𝔫𝐄xt.𝓬𝐎𝓂

This place had a high difficulty level.

Ji Yuan slowly nodded, “Let’s leave this place first. Now I know what the black stele means.”

He began to recite the lines from the black stele;

“This is a valley of darkness and death.

At least 6 cultivators in each team are required to enter the Valley of the Darkness.

In the Valley of the Darkness, cultivators are not going to teach their sons no more, and sons will be cowards.

The sons will search for something without knowing what they search for, insecurity and doubt will torture them for the answers that their father cultivators have already known.

Women will be like men, and men will be like women.

If you are the courageous, you may enter this trial and be the beacon of light in the Valley of the Darkness.”

He bitterly said, “I know why the sons are cowards now and the men will be women. But I still don’t get the women will be like men part.”

But he had already taken out the golden talisman and was saying, “Let’s turn back. This place is too dangerous. Let’s burn our golden talismans and leave this place now.”

Everyone in their group nodded and agreed.

However none of them saw the look that were on Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng or Shui Xisi.

As Ji Yuan flickered his golden talisman, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing, Little Princess, the short old man aka the White Sword Monarch, Ling Feiyue, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden had all burnt their golden talismans as they disappeared from this place; this place was too dangerous and it was wiser for them to give up.

When Ji Yuan had burnt his golden talisman halfway, he had suddenly destroyed his own golden talisman and were staring at Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng; they had already burnt their golden talisman halfway but they were looking grim.

The Lovely Empress who was also burning her golden talisman halfway was startled by Ji Yuan and she had also stuff out her golden talisman, “What is wrong Ji Yuan?”

Only Shui Xisi did not burn her golden talisman yet.

“What is wrong, Qianfeng?” Ji Yuan had suddenly asked. “You are not like this before?”

Bai Qianfeng took a glance at Yun Chi before she lowered her head to say to Ji Yuan, “So you have discovered…”

When her golden talisman had finished burning, she was still in the same spot.

Shui Xisi quietly said, “Immortals that come to this place won’t be able to escape. This is a trap for the immortals.”

Ji Yuan was startled and he stared angrily at Shui Xisi, “Then why didn’t you say so earlier?”

Shui Xisi protested weakly, “I’ve only realized it after I am here. Do you really think that I know everything? I have never even been here. I have heard of this account before but it is at the back of my head. I didn’t burn my golden talisman so that I can verify this. What if I am wrong?”

Ji Yuan: …

Yun Chi quietly said to Ji Yuan, “You should have another golden talisman. Burn your golden talisman and be gone. As long as we can survive for 7 days, we can rejoin you outside.”

Ji Yuan shook his head with a grin, “I am not going anyway. I will be joining the two of you here.”

“I will join you here as well,” the Lovely Empress laughed softly and there was delight in her lovely golden eyes.

Ji Yuan frowned, “Why are you still here? Go back!”

The Lovely Empress took a playful step back, “I don’t want to do so. So what can you do to me? Ravage me?”

Ji Yuan: …

Shui Xisi was also giggling, “Ji Yuan, let me join you here. Maybe I can be helpful to you.”

Ji Yuan frowned, “I doubt so.”

Shui Xisi: …

Ji Yuan sighed softly, “Barely 1 hour in this place, we are now down to 5. It is no wonder why this place is a S+ Trial and required a group.”

“Because some of the cultivators in the group will be cannon fodder?” Shui Xisi giggled as she offered a helpful insight.

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …
