The Romantic Cultivator-Chapter 633 Prelude To The Upper Area Trial (2)

Ji Yuan was now examining the powerful barrier in front of him with his divine sense. As he did so, so did the members of his group.

He was naturally with his old man the White Sword Monarch and 10 of the female cultivators of his group. Or rather, these female cultivators were all the members of his harem.

Also with him were 35 other cultivators and many of them were from the Endless Celestial Fraternity and were even in the White Sword Celestial Clan.

This caused the White Sword Monarch to laugh jovially, "It seems that I am not so lonely after all."

Right now, everyone was examining the sealed barrier in front of them. 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

Yun Chi smiled and said nonchalantly, "It seems that the profound strength of the cultivators is necessary to open this sealed barrier. The number of cultivators actually did not matter."

Bai Qianfeng nodded as she agreed too, "That's right."

Zhan Wuji and the rest of the cultivators were suddenly quiet; it was not because they were suddenly humbled by Ji Yuan or the White Sword Monarch but the presence of the ten extremely beautiful maidens were too overwhelming; they were just too enticing and enchanting together that all the 36 male cultivators were all looking in disbelief at their presence.

Moreover this Ji Yuan had claimed that he was the lord consort of these ten maidens!

How could this Ji Yuan be so lucky?

As they watched and listened, Ji Yuan had suddenly said. "Since it is profound strength that we need in order for us to check the trial inside, why don't I force my way through with my profound power of my sword arts? This will work just as good, am I right?" 𝘧𝒓e𝑒𝑤e𝙗𝚗o𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝐜𝐨ｍ

Yun Chi smiled, "That may be so…"

"Then I shall do it…" Ji Yuan had immediately interrupted with a soft chuckle.

"But this is actually unnecessary." Yun Chi interrupted him with a wry smile as she tapped on the sealed barrier gently and all of a sudden, the sealed barrier in front of them had suddenly dissipated!

Everyone was startled, including the White Sword Monarch.

"What did you just do?" The White Sword Monarch looked curiously at Yun Chi; he was actually thinking of forcing his way through this sealed barrier with Ji Yuan if the combined profound strength of all the cultivators were still not enough.

Yun Chi smiled nonchalantly, "Nothing really. I happen to know a thing or two about unraveling sealed barriers. Since this trial is in the final section, it may be interesting to explore the trial here. So let's go in?"

Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes when he had heard Yun Chi; he knew very well the depth of her profound strength.

But he said nothing and instead he was smiling as he said to the maidens in his group. "Let's go in!"

Soon everyone walked into the valley of darkness but they were all cautious.

It was because they could sense the presence of numerous powerful arrays in this place; for all they know, the trial may have already started!

Zhan Wuji said as they walked cautiously in the darkness, "We have more than forty cultivators here. Do we need to be so afraid? Moreover we have Great Saint Ji Yuan and the White Sword Monarch here."

The short old man frowned at him, "It is better to be safe…"

Ji Yuan began to rub his chin, "Yea. I totally agree with this…"

Ling Feiyue had suddenly pulled Ji Yuan to walk in front and said weakly, "Ji Yuan! Stop thinking too much! Safe or not safe, we will handle this for you."

Many of the maidens including Bai Qianfeng were nodding weakly as they looked awkwardly at Ji Yuan.

For those that had been with Ji Yuan for some time, there was a tendency for him to be in a safe mode and when he did his super cautious mode, the whole journey would end up being extremely slow and even awkward.

It was not that Ji Yuan was wrong in drawing the cautious conclusion but the maidens had thought that with Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng and even the White Sword Monarch around, things would not go too terribly wrong.

Ji Yuan muttered as he protested weakly, "This is my first time in the final section of the final trial and this is the first trial. Therefore I should be as cautious as possible…"

Yun Chi had suddenly pushed himself forward as she whispered in his ears with her divine whisper profound art, "At this moment, you are our mascot. So you ought to act as awesome as possible."

When Ji Yuan had heard her, he was laughing softly as he stood upright with righteousness and said to the rest of the cultivators that were all moving in the same direction. "Follow me! Haha…"

But at the same time, he was whispering to Yun Chi. "Erm, I have an uneasy feeling about this place. I can walk in front but erm, try to keep me safe."

Yun Chi giggled softly, "I won't let my lord dies in this place."

When she was giggling, Bai Qianfeng, the Lovely Empress, Zhi Jiugong and the Smiling Divine Maiden were all giggling softly behind.

The Lovely Empress could not resist adding, "Ji Yuan is no hero of mine!"

Even Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Feng Minyue, Yang Mi and Yu Jingjing were all giggling softly.

Ji Yuan muttered almost incoherently, "This sounds a little suspicious coming from the Death God."

Yun Chi quickly displayed an unhappy look at Ji Yuan as she kicked him to move faster; she had heard him alright even though it was really soft. It was because she was the one that had given him his desolate cherubim and through the connected spirits, she was able to discern Ji Yuan's almost incoherent protest.

Soon Ji Yuan and the rest of the cultivators had come to another section of the mysterious valley and there was a black stele in front of them.

All the cultivators were immediately probing with their divine senses on the black stele to discern the messages that were on it.

It read;

S+ Rank Trial.

This is a valley of darkness and death.

At least 8 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.

Ji Yuan immediately frowned at the message of the black stele, "S plus trial? This is between a S and a SS trial. And what is this riddle that is written on it?"

Ling Feiyue had become thoughtful all of a sudden, "We need 8 cultivators at least for this trial? This means that this is a major trial and a tough trial."

The short old man stroked his long white beard before saying, "Although I do not understand this riddle but it is actually a warning for us to leave this trial."

Zhan Wuji took this opportunity to flatter the White Sword Monarch, "Ancient Patriarch is indeed right. However I am willing to become this beacon of light that will lead us to shine in the darkness."

Many of the cultivators were chorusing the same; they were not going to give up so easily especially when they were already here.

Ji Yuan who was rubbing his chin had suddenly clicked his thumb and said excitingly, "I think that I've finally figured out this strange riddle!"

The White Sword Monarch, the maidens in the group, Zhan Wuji and the rest of the cultivators were now turning with eager anticipations as they looked at Ji Yuan.

Everyone seemed to be saying: What is it then?

Ji Yuan chuckled as he said with a wry smile as he looked at the White Sword Monarch, "I don't have a father cultivator so I do not know. Anyone here is a father?"

Everyone: …

The White Sword Monarch growled immediately, "Why are you looking at me like this? I have only daughters and I don't have a son."

Yang Mi, Chu Lixue the Smiling Divine Maiden: …
