Chapter 328 The Trial Of The Transmigration (5)
Ji Yuan had said to mortal cultivators, “There are some berries and fruits upstream from here. Remember not to go too far.”
When they had returned, many of them were smiling excitingly; it was because they were carrying lobsters, prawns and crabs in their hands. They were literally drooling with excitement.
But when Ji Yuan saw what was in their hands, he was gulping weakly as he cursed them; why are they eating mites, centipedes and spiders?! These mortal cultivators sure have funny taste buds…
Maybe they are already being poisoned too much…
These creatures are extremely tasty because they literally eat anything. When cultivators eat these creatures, they will also develop a ravenous appetite…
Do these mortal cultivators even know that they are actually something weird? Or their intelligence is so low that they can’t tell that these creatures are all horrible creatures that look differently from us? They all have their skeletons outside and not inside…
Since their inner cultivation sea is so weak now, maybe it doesn’t affect them very much. Most of them will perish anyway so I’ve better not share with them. I’ll let them discover all these things themselves in the future provided that they do survive.
Right now, I’ve got to motivate them to go up to the mountain peak by hook or by crook or else I am really screwed…
When all the cultivators had finished eating, they looked a lot more calmer now except for those that are still in great pain.
But there was nothing Ji Yuan could do for them because he did not have any physical form now and he could not give them any profound pills.
He could only pray silently for these cultivators; just treat it as a bad dream. After all, you already have your second chance but you’ve screwed it. But for me, I’ve only this one chance…
Ji Yuan decided that he had to fix their morale first or rather their courage first.
So he raised his voice to say, “Do you know why you’re all here?”
“Because we’re losers in life…”
“We have no accomplishments in life…”
“We are poor in our previous life…”
“I’ve never kiss a girl before…”
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
This group is a bunch of born losers…
But he restrained himself from voicing his innermost thoughts and chuckled, “That is because all of you are the true sons and daughters of the heavens, that is why!”
Everyone was curiously looking at Ji Yuan: …
We are the true sons and daughters of the heavens?
“Do you know why you’ve survived and not the rest?” Ji Yuan pointed at them as he smiled. “That is because you’ve already passed the hardest trial now and had survived.”
The mortal cultivators were startled; we have already passed the hardest trial?
Ji Yuan nodded with a fake smile, “That is right. And you’re all winners. This is actually a hidden trial and you’ve triggered the secret condition. Therefore all of you are now officially a true cultivator.”
The mortal cultivators could not contain their joys; we are the winners? For once, in our life?
“You’re the champions.” Ji Yuan grinned proudly at them.
“Therefore from this point onward, I am going to teach you on how to become a true cultivator. When you are a true cultivator, you will be able to reach the peak of the mountain even with your eyes closed.”
A female mortal cultivator asked timidly, “Is it hard to be a true cultivator? What if I’ve no talent?”
Many of the mortal cultivators were nodding and their eyes were showing fears that they may not have the talents at all.
“I’ve always failed my exams…”
“I have 0 for my exams all the time…”
“My teacher says I’m hopeless…”
“My master says I’m hopeless too…”
Ji Yuan shook with his raised fingers, “Nay! This is as easy as 1+1 so don’t worry…”
“Is 1+1 = 11?” A mortal cultivator asked.
“I’m terrible in maths…”𝓝𝑶𝚟ℯ𝓁𝐧𝑒xt.𝒸𝑂𝗆
“I am uneducated…”
“What is 1+1?”
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
“That is not the point.” He finally said. “It is really easy like breathing, drinking and eating. No efforts are required!”
“Really?” Many of the mortal cultivators were delighted.
Ji Yuan was thinking; how am I going to teach these bunches of idiots to be a true cultivators in such a short time…
But he forced himself to return a beautiful smile, “It is really easy because you are already winners.”
“First, I’ve to teach you how to use your divine sense.”
Many of the cultivators began to wonder out loud. “What is divine sense?”
Ji Yuan explained bitterly, “Well, divine sense is something like your sixth sense. The stronger your spiritual sea in your inner cultivation core is, the stronger is your divine sense. But of course, your cultivation realm levels and your profound arts will also play a huge part.”
Then he said solemnly, “You have to depend on your divine sense at all times because most of the time, your reflexes may not be as fast as the desolate beasts. They can really attack very fast and only your divine sense can warn you that they’re attacking. When they do, you need to dodge and you need to dodge fast or you will be dead next because your bodies will be ripped apart by them in the next instant.”
Many of the mortal cultivators were now looking at one another with a terrific expression; they had remembered how the desolate beasts slaughtered the rest as though they were like tofu.
A mortal cultivator took the courage to ask, “But…we can’t move as fast as them…even I’ve blinked my eye, everyone around me is dead…”
Ji Yuan smiled bitterly; this cultivator had struck a painful chord. From what he could see, these mortal cultivators are like free targeting boards for the desolate monsters to kill.
What had exactly happened in the Mortal Realm below?!
Why has everyone become a pussy?!
Did they all lead such decadent lifestyle that they have forgotten how to fight?
This is going to be much harder than he had thought…
But he smiled to them, “I’m going to put you all through to my special physical training. After you’ve emerged from it, you are going to be really, really fit.”
“Is it hard?” One of the mortal cultivators asked. “So what is the training routine like?”
Ji Yuan laughed. He is naturally going to keep things very easy for them all so he answered with a smile. “The routine will naturally be very easy and nothing that all of you cannot do. Firstly, for warm up, you are going for a 60 mile run. That will take less than 30minutes and then we will officially start our training routines…”
All of a sudden Ji Yuan had frozen when he saw many of the cultivators had fainted from shock.
“Run sixty miles in 30 minutes…”
“This is impossible…”
“It is too hard…”
“I will rather die than run sixty miles…”
“In my entire life, I’ve never run for more than ten miles…”
Ji Yuan rolled his eyes; this is much harder than I’ve thought. Someone please kill all of them and deliver me from this trial…
He began to wonder how the rest of his beloved maidens were all getting along or were they also suffering the same thing as him…

Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi had all experienced the same shock as Ji Yuan and they were all banging heads at the sheer stupidity of the mortal cultivators.
Literally most of them got wiped out in their first encounter.
Ling Feiyue and Little Princess had sent the cultivators off thinking that this trial looks easy enough.
Little Princess was cursing the dead mortal cultivators, “Did they even pay attention to what I am saying other than staring at me?!”
Bai Qianfeng was furious, “I am an immortal. These mortals are driving me crazy with their lack of knowledge. This is definitely a generation gap…no two generation gap…”
“If I’ve my physical body, I will surely whip them all.” Shui Xisi was lamenting loudly.
As for Feng Minyue and Yu Jingjing, the two of them were serious in their trial and were patiently teaching the mortal cultivators the art of cultivation to prepare them properly so that they could all reach the summit.
Even though the distance was quite short but they still felt they had to bring as many of the mortal cultivators to the summit so that they could have second chance in life.
Therefore they were quite patient and did not rush in their trial undertakings.
Elsewhere, 95% of the 300+ cultivators were all making the same mistakes as Ji Yuan; they were all thinking as long as one mortal cultivator manages to reach the summit then they will be able to clear the trial. That is why they see no point in wasting any time on these mortal cultivators.
This was actually a ruse from the Giant Blob Trial Spirit; these high level cultivators had no idea how sucky the mortal cultivators were. In fact, their physical endurance and fighting ability were all worse than even a celestial first realm cultivator by several folds.
This was something that most of the high level cultivators could not even imagine and he was leading many of the cultivators to complacency.
As a matter of fact, many of the celestial cultivators were now smiling bitterly now because they had suddenly realized it too late and that most of the mortal cultivators were actually losers in the mortal realm and hence, they were picked to be given a second chance.
None of the mortal cultivators actually had the potential to be a true cultivator in the Celestial Realm and none of them could really fight.
