Chapter 984 Fairy Anyang’s Request
The sword energies that were being displayed by Ji Yuan’s grand cross were so powerful that a couple of the 100m tall trees had even snapped and collapsed.
The tree trucks of these towering tees were as width as 5m and Ji Yuan was quite startled that his grand cross could even snap their trucks!
This was the same as breaking the spine of a seventh rank profound beast!
Ji Yuan was quite startled that he could now kill seventh rank profound beast with just a powerful display of his sword profound art.
One must know that seventh realm cultivators may not even be able to contest with a seventh rank profound beast due to their superior body, regeneration, armor, power and even speed of attack. It was always a hard fight that most seventh realm cultivators would rather avoid since they are more capable of killing other seventh realm cultivators than the seventh rank profound beasts which required them to have extreme avoidance skill or profound defense in the first place.
For Ji Yuan, he belonged to the rare type of cultivators that could fight the high level profound beasts due to his reflexes and he would be described as a monster hunter.
For any other cultivators, if they would to muster their profound aura to try to high level profound beasts then even before they could even react, they would be ripped apart first by the claws or insane attacks from a high level profound beast.
The profound might of a high level profound beast were tens of times higher than a cultivator simply because of their bodily size and raw strength. Even their profound strength was magnified tens of times stronger than the same realm cultivator with just their seventh rank profound aura which was equivalent to the profound aura of a seventh realm cultivator.
Size does matter, especially when the Abyssals are twice as tall as Ji Yuan and they are 3 times more powerful with their profound power with the same cultivation realm.
Ji Yuan was rubbing his chin as he mustered, “Now I know why these eighth cultivation realms are constantly looking down on the mere seventh realm cultivators. The disparity between us are too weak.”
Xiang Li giggled, “But Big Brother, your grand cross evolves from a miracle profound art. I don’t think even an immortal can lay their hands on any divine or miracle profound art so easily or you would already been killed several times by them. Also your grand cross comes from your miracle sword art the Sacred Sword Pillar and you have upgraded it to be 5 times stronger than a mere display of your miracle profound art the Sacred Sword Pillar. This itself allows you to cross boundary easily.”
Ji Yuan laughed softly, “That is in terms of profound power only and it is quite taxing for me. The last three immortal cultivators that I’ve fought, I actually had a tough time…”
He was naturally referring to his fight with the Divine Lord Kong Rong, Number 1 Ding Xiaoxiao and Rey Pugpatine.
If he did not have his powerful sword domains to back him up, even his grand cross sword profound art could not be able to help him much.
He actually knows that Xiang Li was actually trying to flatter him but he did not mind at all.
Just as he was about to leave, Anyang had suddenly said. “My lord, wait! Are you really going to leave just like this?”
Ji Yuan: ???
“Yeah. My business here is done and I have exterminated the threats to my camp.”
Anyang giggled softly, “These Abyssals all have quite a number of profound treasures here, especially the first Abyssal that you have killed.”
Ji Yuan frowned, “You know I don’t usually loot from my enemies. Let the lucky passer-by loot them and let this be their fortuitous encounter instead.”
Anyang pointed out, “The first Abyssal that had died have two celestial-step profound treasures. Are you going to forget about it? This is the Dark Abyssal, so this will only benefit the Abyssals.”
Ji Yuan laughed softly, “I can’t really use the profound treasures of Abyssals and I don’t have the time to do so…”
This was true.
Even in the Celestial Realm, a high level profound treasure has to be refined by a cultivator for sometimes hundreds or even thousands of years for them to use it.
Even for a divine sword, a high level cultivator can spend their lifetime just trying to divine harmonize with it.
The reason why JI Yuan is able to harmonize with his divine sword so quickly is because he is a genius Sword Saint and also because the soul of his two divine swords are Xiang Li and Anyang now.
Anyang giggled softly, “You don’t have to use them. You can give it to Xiang Li and I. We can refine it for you.”
Xiang Li giggled too, “I can help Big Brother to recycle their profound treasures. These Abyssals are hundreds and thousands of years old. They have quite a large number of profound treasures.”
Ji Yuan displayed a small frown as he seemed to be talking to the air if an observer would to see him standing alone in the forest, “The two of you are no longer Trial Spirits. How come I didn’t know that you are able to refine and the recycle profound treasures other than wiping away profound signatures?”
Xiang Li laughed playfully, “It is part of our inherent ability. We can store the profound energies of these profound treasures within our soul sea.”
Ji Yuan muttered with a look of shock, “I didn’t know fairy spirits also have a soul sea…”
“Please?” Anyang pleaded.
JI Yuan frowned, “No use trying to flatter me…”
“You are so awesome today,” Anyang giggled.
Ji Yuan laughed, “Alright then. I just let the two of you loot this time. Just this once.”
When he had said that, Anyang and Xiang Li had immediately materialized into view and they were delightfully collecting all the scattered profound treasures from the 7 dead Abyssals.
Anyang was saying to Xiang Li, “The first Abyssal seemed to be quite rich. His celestial-step profound treasures have a profound signature that will alert someone else if it is taken away…”
“But unfortunately, we are able to clean all the profound signatures and take away all the profound treasures without anyone knowing…” Xiang Li was giggling happily as she hastily picked all the profound treasures that had forcefully spilled out of the spatial storages as they cleaned the profound signatures on the profound treasures with great speed.
Ji Yuan was left muttering with astonishment as he saw a great number of profound treasures, blood crystals, cultivation slips, profound pills and spirit herbs that were suddenly forced out by both Anyang and Xiang Li.
Aura the Divine Tree had suddenly materialized from Ji Yuan’s inner spiritual sea and she was panicky shouting, “Big Sisters Xiang Li, Anyang. Please give me the spirit herbs to be used as my fertilizers…”
Anyang giggled, “Don’t worry Aura. We will save the spirit herbs for you.”
“That’s right!” Xiang Li chuckled softly.
Ji Yuan was left muttering weakly, “How come I got a feeling that when Xiang Li and Anyang were Trial Spirits in the past, they were targeting the high level cultivators to try to kill them for their loots?”𝑵𝗈𝑽𝓔𝗅𝗇𝖾xt.𝗰𝚘𝓂
The Trial Spirits in a trial generally took the profound treasures that were left behind by the dead cultivators to recycle them into new profound treasures as needed. Or they simply took the profound treasures just to give it away to a new group of cultivators.
In this case, Xiang Li and Anyang were mostly taking away the heavy divine weapons of the Abyssals to recycle them either into heavenly relics or new divine swords.
Or so, that was what Ji Yuan had thought.
Actually, Xiang Li and Anyang were actually taking the Abyssals’ divine weapons and other profound treasures for their own consumption to grow their emperor-step divine swords instead.
Anyang showed Xiang Li a turnip shape celestial-step metallic object and she was giggling, “This celestial profound treasure is able to release vast quantities of deadly infernal profound energies in the vicinity if it were to be activated. Even a seventh rank profound beast would not be able to survive this. This Abyssal didn’t even have the chance to use it. Now I am going to refine it for my own use…”
Xiang Li was giggling as she continued to clean more of the profound treasures that were scattered around, “I want the other celestial profound treasure for my own use…”
Then Ji Yuan was suddenly shouting panicky to Xiang Li when he saw that she had just pocketed some profound pills, “Wait Xiang Li! Did I see you pocketing some profound pills? If it is useful for me, can you save some for me? Hahaha…”
