The Romantic Cultivator-Chapter 577 The Wonderland Of The Unwavering Monument (2)

The short old man was proudly telling Ji Yuan and his group, "This is a most wonderful wonderland and is called the Wonderland of the Unwavering Monument. Best of all, it is quite safe and is not a combat trial. Also, we can even improve upon our profound arts in this place!"

Ji Yuan was delighted as he laughed, "Then I am going to restore my reputation and to show everyone how awesome I am by being the top cultivator in that wonderland! Haha..."

The short old man frowned, "When is the last time that you are the top cultivator in a trial?"

Ji Yuan answered, "I am always top but not recently. It just happens that you are not around to witness my awesomeness, that's why.""

He began to frown as he pondered with displeasure, "I did remember I was top in the Trial of Righteousness. But I can't remember getting a thing from that trial…"

That was because the Great Beyond Goddess had taken his reward but as the reward was not something that could help Ji Yuan, she had kept quiet about it. Instead, she had changed the reward by helping Ji Yuan discreetly instead. Because the Great Beyond Goddess could not help directly without a reason, she had taken Ji Yuan's reward. In a way, this was her best reward for Ji Yuan.

The short old man asked Ji Yuan quietly by whispering to him, "How come these maidens are not happy when I have returned? And I seem to notice a look of despise in their eyes when they are looking at me? Even my two daughters are looking at me weirdly as though I am a pervert."

Ji Yuan laughed weakly as he answered quietly, "They are also giving me the same look, didn't you notice it as well?"

The short old man pondered for a while, "You are right. But why is that so?"

Ji Yuan hastily thought of an excuse, "Well, they are afraid, that is why. After all, we are so deep inside the last level of the final trial now. Their hearts are not as strong as us. After all, we both have our saintly divine swords but they do not have any… haha…"

The short old man laughed too, "Hahahaha… so that's the reason. But now I am back, I will definitely protect your beloveds for you, especially Maiden Yun Chi. Hahahaha…"

After some time, their group had finally reached the next wonderland and the name of this wonderland was the Wonderland of the Unwavering Monument.

A gigantic ridge cliff measuring 600m high stood in front of them and below were the desolate mists.

The instant that they had arrived at this wonderland, they could feel immerse pressure radiating from the towering ridge cliff in front of them. Nearly 600 cultivators could be seen in deep meditation all over the place; the closer they were to the ridge, the better was their Dao comprehension!

The short old man immediately said to Ji Yuan and his group with a laugh, "Did you notice the immerse pressure of this place? This place will be most helpful to our internal profound arts. The closer that we are to that ridge cliff, the more powerful our internal profound arts will be strengthened in understandings. Even your Yang Invincible Body Profound Art would be improved by this Dao comprehension!"

Ji Yuan was delighted as he chuckled aloud, "This is great news! So what are we waiting for? I can't wait to let everyone see how awesome I am in this place, haha! Watch me old man as I make perfect my understanding of the Yang Invincible Body Art, haha! I love this type of trial the best! Simple and direct!"

There were 600 steps to the ridge cliff.

For the first 200 steps, there were only 69 cultivators. And most of the cultivators were between the 201-400 steps.

The cultivators that were within the first 100 steps all had formidable profound defenses or internal profound arts and they just numbered 33 of them.

Ji Yuan's group was a big one so many of the cultivators that were in the vicinity had already sensed their approaches with their divine sense. When they saw that it was merely a group of 10 maidens and 2 male cultivators, many of the cultivators were actually laughing secretly in their hearts; it was because usually a big group means that they were weaker than the others hence there was a need for alliance. Moreover many of the cultivators were males and they had looked down upon the female cultivators.

The short old man had suddenly displayed his profound aura with his Yang Invincible Body Profound Art and he had calmly walked to the 555 steps which was his limit before he was forced to meditate for his next step.

He was now sweating profusely and had to stop.

This was really impressive!

It was actually not easy for the short old man.

In fact when he was at the 400 steps, the great pressure was already slowing him down and he had to use plenty of his profound strength to resist the great pressure from the ridge.

By the 450 steps, he could feel that his legs were trembling!

By the 500 steps, he was just using his willpower and all his profound strength!

At the 555 steps, he was forced to stop as he collapsed onto the ground in a meditation posture. This was his absolute limit!

Even Yu Jingjing and Yang Mi were at the 440 and 344 respectively!

Ling Feiyue was able to reach the 510 steps. Her internal and external profound arts were both top notched!

Little Princess was also among the top cultivators and she was at the 513 steps. f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Feng Minyue was at the 530 steps!

Zhi Jiugong had also reached the 530 steps and she was quite startled that a frail maiden like Feng Minyue was actually her peer.

Feng Minyue saw that Zhi Jiugong was surprised, so she smiled to her. "My internal profound art may be better than yours. But your spirit profound arts are definitely superior to mine."

The Smiling Divine Maiden was at the 501 steps.

The lovely Empress was at the 488 steps.

Every step difference was actually a huge power disparity and could not be overcome easily.

As the short old man was at the 555 steps, he was naturally the first and the most powerful cultivator.

And he was now smiling to himself: I am so awesome.

All the 600 cultivators presented were suddenly impressed by this new group and there were loud mutterings.

"Most are of them have actually made it to the first 200 steps. They are actually quite formidable. Don't tell me that they are mostly golden saints or even great saints from the powerful celestial influences?"

"I was blind…"

"They are all so impressive…"

"Wait, look!"

All of a sudden Bai Qianfeng had walked to the 600 steps and was meditating in front of the ridge cliff!

"Did you see that? Someone has actually reached the end of the ridge!" ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢

"Who is she? She is so impressive…"

"I don't believe it…"

Even the short old man was dumbfounded by it.

All of a sudden Yun Chi had also walked past the short old man with a wry smile as she said, "This isn't so hard after all."

And she had seated herself next to Bai Qianfeng.

"Did you see that?!"

"There are now two cultivators that have reached the end of the ridge now…"

"This is impossible right?"

"How formidable are they?"

Once again the short old man was dumbfounded when he saw that Maiden Yun Chi had overtaken him to reach the end of the ridge in such an effortless manner.

"Look there is one more…"

"He seems to be the last and he is at the 55 steps…"

"I don't think he is in their group…"

"Yea, he probably meets them halfway and join them for protection so that he can reach this wonderland…"

"Agree. He is so weak and is also the last…"

Ji Yuan was indeed the last and his dream of being awesomeness was bust in this place. So he had a most ugly look on his face as he was forced to meditate to improve upon the strength of his internal profound art.

A golden celestial was meditating slightly in front of him at the 56 step and he had turned around to comfort Ji Yuan, "Don't worry brother. One of these days, we will definitely reach the 400th step."

Ji Yuan was startled, "Not the 600th step?"

The golden celestial laughed, "It seems impossible for me. So 400th step is my goal. So what is your goal?"

Ji Yuan frowned before he answered, "The 100 steps."

The golden celestial: …

"That is indeed the most impressive goal ever…"

"You know fellow brother cultivator," The golden celestial smiled. "Even though I am just a 5th realm middle tier cultivator but the laws of the Empyrean are really fair. We have the most recovery to offset the imbalance between the great saints and us. In this way, we have a better fighting chance against these great saints who cannot use their profound arts to kill us so easily. If we cannot beat them, we can always try to outrun them in a fight. Speaking of this, we seem to be around the same cultivation realm so I am just wondering what your current cultivation realm is?"

Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes before he answered awkwardly, "Peaked Great Saint Ji Yuan from the Desolate Celestial Fraternity."

This was the most embarrassing line that a MC would ever say in a cultivation story to an inferior and now it was spoken by Ji Yuan.

The golden celestial: …

The golden celestial: …
