The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 881 Prelude To The Second Trial (1)



Ji Yuan had 3 days to recuperate before the start of the second trial and he would fully need to take 3 days to replenish his inner spiritual sea through cultivation.

When the first trial had finally ended a day later, there were 33 champions in their city-state that had survived.

Many of them were all looking exhausted and demoralized; the horrors that they had been facing would only be imagined!

Slightly more than half of the champions in their city-state had completely perished; this was a big loss considered that this was only the first trial of many.

The Trial Spirit announced once again to the 33 surviving champions, “You will all be given 2 days to rest from the ordeals of your trials.”

Ji Yuan continued to cultivate to regain his profound strength. 

But to his surprise, he had actually taken 2 days in total to fully regain his profound strength; it was because he could feel that his rate of cultivation and recovering rate was in fact faster now.

That was not all.

His hasty cultivation realm was also stabilizing faster than he had expected and he did not need to wait for 100 years to do so. It may be shorter than this.

He began to wonder: This little spirit plant is actually helpful?

He had not put much hope in trusting the words of this parasite spirit plant in the first place and moreover it also seemed to be quite boastful of its own ability too. 

Ji Yuan could guess that this parasite spirit plant was actually very hard to promote itself so that it may stay in his inner spiritual sea and cultivate off his immortal Golden Natal Divine Pearl.

He actually did not mind that because he felt a little guilty for plucking this spirit plant anyway. The only reason why he had plucked it was because he was trying to show off in front of his senior sister. 

Chu Lixue saw that Ji Yuan seemed to have recovered and she looked a little startled, “Are you a monster? Or are you consuming other powerful profound pills that can quickly recover your profound strength in only 2 days? Be warned that it may have an adverse effect on you instead!”

Ji Yuan laughed, “Actually my senior sister, I have only taken two weak replenishing profound pills so far. Once per day. Haha…”

Chu Lixue ignored that for she had more important matter in her mind.

She displayed her most coquettishly and divine self to Ji Yuan, that could melt the hearts of most men. 

“Junior Brother Ji Yuan, do you think that you can share a little of the Hundred Blazing Rose to me?”

That was her real intention.

This Hundred Blazing Rose would be most useful to her cultivation.

Ji Yuan smiled bitterly, “Senior sister, I can’t. Because this Hundred Blazing Rose has taken root in my inner spirit sea now and there is no way for me to pluck it now.”

Chu Lixue returned a look of displeasure on him, “You are not joking with your senior sister, am I right? After all my bodily sacrifices for you.”

Ji Yuan was smiling most bitterly, “I hope that senior sister will believe me…”

The real spirit plant had indeed taken root deep inside his inner spirit sea with his Golden Natal Divine Pearl. When it manifests itself to talk to him or to Xiang Li and Anyang, only its spirt manifestation and not the real thing would appear above his inner spiritual sea.

He could not even touch the Golden Natal Divine Pearl that was inside his inner spirit sea, so how could he even touch that parasite spirit plant that was rooted on top on it and even claiming his golden pearl as its golden sun?

Chu Lixue was really displeased now, “Ji Yuan! You are too selfish! Your senior sister only wants a little bit and yet you are not even agreeing to give me a little. I am so disappointed in you!”

Ji Yuan felt like slapping himself…

This was a fix that he could not even explain himself…I think you should take a look at

Ji Yuan whispered as softly as he could even though the sharp ears of the other cultivators had already heard the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue by now.

“Senior sister, I can even give you my heart even. But for this spirit plant I really can’t give you. How about this? I give you my emperor-step divine sword as a compensation?”

Anyang and Xiang Li were horrified: We will be given away?!

Actually, Ji Yuan was only referring to his half-step emperor divine sword that formed part of his 9 flying swords. 

Chu Lixue hummed coldly, “Who wants your divine sword?”

Ji Yuan whispered with a bad grin, “How about I give you my body as a reward?”

Chu Lixue had turned coyly as she lowered her voice to protest shyly, “Who… wants… your body?!”

Ji Yuan laughed as he took the opportunity to explain, “This spirit herb is like a parasite worm that has wormed its way into my inner spiritual sea. I actually don’t mind giving my senior sister the entire spirit plant but I can’t seem to get it out after it turned into a spirit form and entered my inner spiritual sea.”

“Seriously?” Chu Lixue looked startled. 

Ji Yuan sighed softly, “I really regret giving it my permission to enter my inner spiritual sea. Now it likes it so much that it refuses to leave anymore. And it is so deep inside my inner spirit sea that I can’t even uproot it or to remove it. So, is it a parasite worm or not?”

Chu Lixue took a step away from Ji Yuan, “Alright, I believe you this time. But don’t touch me while you still got that disgusting worm inside your inner spiritual sea. Because I hate worms. Who knows if you are infected by something weird or not.”

Ji Yuan: …

Don’t touch my senior sister?! 

And Chu Lixue had really moved away from Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

Ji Yuan: …

“Xiang Li! Anyang!” He quickly ordered them. “Get rid of the parasite worm in my inner spiritual sea from this day onward! By hook or by crook!”

Xiang Li asked curiously: What parasite worm? Your little brother?

Ji Yuan: …

Anyang said weakly: Our lord is referring to that tiny little ‘divine tree’. 

Xiang Li answered: Oh? By hook or by crook means we have to hook it up from deep inside Big Brother’s inner spiritual sea, am I right?”

Anyang said bitterly: Yeah, right. Fish it up with a hook.

Ji Yuan rolled his eyes before he muttered: This conversation is going nowhere…
