The Romantic Cultivator-Chapter 580 Prelude To The Great Valhalla Hall

Ji Yuan and his group had now found a new wonderland and the name of this wonderland was the Great Valhalla Hall.

This was what they had found out by touching the black stele and they saw that there was a huge cavern opening in front of them.

When Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng had found this wonderland, Ji Yuan was not surprised at all.

It was because he knew that they had been cheating.

While everyone was patrolling, Ji Yuan was flirting with the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong.

It was because he knew that Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng would take flight in secret after everyone was away and they would quickly find the next wonderland. In this way, none of them would be lost.

By taking flight, he meant that they were not merely taking flight but was flying.

And he was proven right.

That was why he did not go too far away from their appointed meeting place.

When the short old man saw this wonderland, he was trembling but he was also excited, "I had once visited this wonderland when I was very young. I've thought that I may never seen it again. This is one wonderland that I must go."

When he had said that, Ji Yuan and the 10 maidens were all curiously looking at him.

"What is it this place?" Ji Yuan asked curiously.

The short old man solemnly answered them, "This place is actually a combat trial. There are a lot of unspeakable horrors in this place and you must have a golden talisman or else you will surely die in there. This will be explained later once you are inside the Great Valhalla Hall. This place is where the names of the heroes that die shall be engraved in the Great Valhalla Hall. Therefore, I shall not advise that you go to this place. So, I guess that this is time for us to say farewell."

Ji Yuan laughed, "I will be afraid? My fighting spirit is aroused now. Haha…"

Ling Feiyue whispered to the rest of the maidens, "He happens to learn a stupid skill called the Undying Fighting Spirit…"

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan began to ask the short old man solemnly, "What is the reward of this place since you have been in there before?"

The short old man grinned, "I've got my Yang Invincible Profound Arts and my white saintly divine sword in there. But it is a most dangerous place. I wish I can tell you more but the mystic laws of this place prevent me from telling you more about this trial unless you have been inside yourself. However, I am allowed to warn you because this is a most difficult trial of the middle final trial."

Ji Yuan took a quiet look at the 10 maidens behind and he was saying, "I am going in. It is because I am a cultivator and I need to improve my sword skills in a combat trial. This is the only way that I can improve myself and it is not by meditation. And as a cultivator, I need to take certain risks."

When he had said that, the short old man nodded as he stroked his long beard in approval: This is his Ji Yuan!

"So, anyone going or who is staying behind?" Ji Yuan asked quietly; he had suddenly lost his usual humor in his golden eyes.

The ten maidens quickly discussed among themselves and the reply shocked Ji Yuan.

Except for Yun Chi, Little Princess, Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Feng Minyue who were the 5 that were not going, the other 5 maidens, Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all going in. 𝐟𝙧ℯ𝑒𝒘𝐞𝒃𝗻𝒐ѵ𝘦𝑙.com

The reason why Yun Chi had chosen not to go was because her unborn daughter whom she called Little Precious was more important than any profound treasures. Unless it was necessary, she was not going to take any risks.

As for Yang Mi, she felt she was too weak and she did not want to give her father any pressure by going inside; she was actually the only maiden that was not a great saintess. Moreover she could cultivate her Holy Oracle Goddess with her Sister Yu Jingjing too.

As for Yu Jingjing, she had wanted to cultivate her Holy Oracle Goddess with the cultivation methods that Zhi Jiugong had taught her.

As for Feng Minyue and Little Princess, they were taking the opportunity to cultivate more of the insights that they had gained from the earlier wonderland. And that was the reason why they had decided to give this wonderland a miss.

Ling Feiyue rolled her alluringly golden eyes as she took a look at Bai Qianfeng, the Smiling Divine Maiden, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong. "I am forced to admit that I seem to be the weakest among my sisters that are going to this place."

Although she had said that but she was smiling wryly.

The Lovely Empress chuckled softly as she displayed a moment of loveliness, "Hehe. I'm just going in for some profound treasures. Maybe I can even find a saint sword or two."

The short old man reminded her, "It is not for playing. This place is particularly brutal."

Then he turned to look at the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue, "Are you sure that you really want to come? It is really a dangerous place."

The Smiling Divine Maiden faintly smile, "Just because my mother consort had perished in this place too, so you are trying to dissuade me?"

The short old man was startled but he quickly composed himself; just before her mother consort had passed away, she had used several profound treasures to send out her last location in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth and the name of the wonderland where she had died was the Great Valhalla Hall.

When Ji Yuan had heard this, he was startled as he turned to look at Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden. "Is that true?"

The Smiling Divine Maiden gave a soft divine hum as she nodded quietly, "My mother consort had indeed died inside the final trial and that is reason why I am also here. Because this place has my mother consort's memories. She was only here because she had wanted to help my father to fulfill his dreams."

The short old man returned a dark frowned, "What is the past, is the past! I have already forgiven her for her infidelity to me. She is still my first consort and you are still my daughter!"

When Ji Yuan saw the melancholy look that was on the Smiling Divine Maiden's countenance, he was saddened too. But as this was a family matter, he decided not to ask too much.

He pretended to laugh, "Haha. Let's go then. We will soon return from this trial. So stay safe everyone!"

He took a slow look at Ling Feiyue, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress and Zhi Jiugong; we are all cultivators and we have to defy death all the time or death will surely overtake us. This is our choice to enter this trial to be stronger. I hope to see everyone safe and sound after this…

When Xiang Li saw that Ji Yuan was so sad in his heart, she asked him: Big Brother, why are you so sad?

Ji Yuan bitterly answered: That is because I have not banged the three sisters yet…

Xiang Li, Anyang: …
