Novel Full Chapter 337 The Fallen Gods Valley (2)
After Ji Yuan had entered into the trial portal, he found himself in a place that was surrounded by tall treacherous mountains and the heavens above were dark, exploding with purple lightning continuously that snaked down onto the ground and shook the ground with its almighty impact.
At the same time three beams of light appeared in front of Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan caught the three tiny beams of light and it was turned into three Escape Talismans which he quickly stored in his spatial ring.
Xiang Li gasped, “This place sure looks like a scary place…”
Ji Yuan laughed awkwardly, “Nothing is more scarier than my earlier confessions. I’ve thought that I would die of embarrassment earlier. Haha.”
Then he sighed softly, “But it certainly makes me feel much better after bottoming it from my heart. I must be the most shameless cultivator ever. How can I love them all at the same time…”
All of a sudden Ji Yuan was frozen on the spot because his divine sense could suddenly sense that all the maidens in his party were behind him and were giggling.
Ji Yuan: …
Even Xiang Li was face-palming while Fairy Anyang was giggling, “This is…really…awkward!”
Ji Yuan turned back to face the maidens as he blinked his eyes, “Erm, this isn’t a solo trial?”
Ling Feiyue was laughing to and fro as she placed her hand on her belly, “It appears to be so!”
“Yea, this isn’t a solo trial.” Little Princess winked at him mesmerizing.
Feng Minyue averted her eyes, “I didn’t hear anything just now. My mind is on the trial.” But she could not resist displaying her smiles.
Shui Xisi was giggling nonstop, “Why didn’t you die of your embarrassment yet?”
Ji Yuan: …
“Maybe he is too thick skin to die of embarrassment.” Bai Qianfeng chuckled.
Ji Yuan muttered weakly, “Qianfeng, even you…”
Only Jingjing didn’t poke fun at me…she is the best…
“Is Ji Yuan always so funny?” Yu Jingjing serene countenance finally could not resist breaking into soft chuckles.
Ji Yuan: …
I’ve decided to take back my praises for Jingjing…
I guess that only Jiajia is the most perfect maiden for me, because she has never gossiped or laughed at me…
She is so too busy to gossip about me, that’s why…
Ji Yuan maintained a straight face as he said, “Actually I already know that this is not a solo trial and that is why I’ve thought of this to lessen the heavy mood for this trial.”
Shui Xisi burst out laughing, “Like real!”
Ling Feiyue fell into the arms of Little Princess, “Sorry…I…I just can’t…stop laughing…”
All the other maidens were also laughing jovially.
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan was perplexed; he could have sworn that his bluff was really convincing but why didn’t they believe in him?
“You must be wondering, am I right?’ Little Princess winked at him as she showed him a green glowing pearl. “This is the profound treasure that I got for my trial reward. Whenever a cultivator is to lie in front of this Untruth Nascent Pearl, it will glow green.”
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
This was such a godly cultivation weapon against him…he was totally defeated!
“Alright, you win. I was only joking.” Ji Yuan muttered.
Again, the Untruth Nascent Pearl glowed green.
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
“Alright, I am serious.” Ji Yuan frowned. “But I truly love all of you.”
This time the Untruth Nascent Pearl did not glow.
All the maidens were flustered as they took a forlorn look at Ji Yuan…
After a while Ji Yuan laughed awkwardly, “Since we are still in the same party, we can continue together. Haha.”
But after walking for a while, they were stupefied by the sight that was ahead of them;
In front of them was a black mountain wall that sketched for miles and there were thousands of cultivators that were staring at the black mountain wall.
Every once in a while, the purple lightning from above the dark heavens above would strike down an unfortunate cultivator, sending them stumbling down the black mountains.
These cultivators actually did not die but had used the Escape Talisman to exit the trial when they could not resist the impact of the purple lightning that were striking with explosive fury upon them.
“What are they doing? Why are so many cultivators staring at the black mountain walls?” Ji Yuan frowned.
Bai Qianfeng and Shui Xisi answered at the same time, “There seem to be writings on the black walls and these cultivators appear to be studying it.”
Ji Yuan also had a sharp vision and he could see it. Unfortunately the writings were shrouded by the language of the gods; in order to decipher it, he had to touch the writings with his hands and extended his divine sense into it.
Some genius cultivators and immortal cultivators like Bai Qianfeng will be able to decipher it with their divine sense alone but they still have to get close enough first.
Even though Ji Yuan could see tens of thousands of cultivators scattered all over the place but because the black mountain walls have extended for miles, there was actually plenty of space.
Ji Yuan blinked his eyes and he was astonished by the sight of so many cultivators that were like ants in front of him.
He muttered, “Did we miss something?”
Shui Xisi smiled, “As we go higher up, the numbers of worlds get increasing lesser and we will actually see an increase in the number of cultivators. But these cultivators are all genius cultivators of their celestial fraternity. Therefore we must be careful when we are dealing with them. Also, it is not surprising that some of the trials have started ahead of us.”
Feng Minyue nodded, “Actually our progress isn’t that bad already. If we’re too fast, some of the higher level trials may not even started yet and we have to wait. We may end up wasting time and time is very precious in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.”
“Totally agree.” Bai Qianfeng nodded lightly, “Our objective is the 6th level of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. There is no need for us to dwell too long on this level even if this is an S Rank Trial.”
“Right.” Ji Yuan completely agreed with them. “We should go all the way into the most interior of the Fallen Gods Valley and be done with this trial as soon as possible.”
“Yeah!” All the maidens agreed with him.
Very soon, they had reached the black walls mountain by following the shortest path ahead of them but they had also encountered a group of twenty cultivators who were meditating and researching the language of the gods on the black walls.
These cultivators consisted of 15 men and 5 women; the men all had a beautiful short beard.
When they saw Ji Yuan and his party, a handsome man with a beautiful short golden beard had turned to them with a golden smile.
His smile was really golden because Ji Yuan saw that all his teeth were golden as well.
Ji Yuan blinked with his eyes at the dazzling flash of the beautiful golden beard cultivator just to ensure that he was not seeing things; this cultivator really had golden teeth.
The beautiful golden beard cultivator greeted them, “Beautiful maidens, where are you from? I am Hua Yingxiong, the Prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.”
Ling Feiyue, Little Princess, Shui Xisi, Feng Minyue, Yu Jingjing and even Ji Yuan were startled when they had heard his title.
Only Bai Qianfeng was not because she had never heard of him or the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire before. But even if she has heard of it before, she will not be startled because she is an immortal.
The reason why Ji Yuan and the rest were startled was because the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire is the only Celestial Empire in the Celestial Realm. Unlike the rest of the other celestial fraternities that are fragmented, a mighty cultivator had united this celestial fraternity into a mighty celestial empire.
Even if Ji Yuan has not heard of most of the other celestial fraternities before but he has long heard of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, the one and only celestial fraternity that has united all the celestial clans into one mighty empire under a celestial emperor.
And this Hua Yingxiong is a mighty noble prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire.
Ji Yuan immediately greeted him with a friendly smile, “Haha. So you’re a prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire. It is my great honor to have met you in this place…”
Hua Yingxiong raised his fingers to wave a ‘No’ in front of Ji Yuan, “I’m not talking to you. A mere servant like you is not fit to talk to me. I’m talking to the beautiful maidens behind you and not to you. Are you a maiden?”
Immediately the nineteen cultivators behind Hua Yingxiong were all laughing jovially at Ji Yuan.
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …
Ji Yuan: …𝗈𝑽𝓁𝒩xt.𝗇𝓔t
The smiles on Ji Yuan’s face were immediately wiped away as he displayed a disgruntled frown. “Friend, do you have to be so rude? We’re all cultivators of the way here.”
Hua Yingxiong replied coldly, “Who is your friend? With one look, I can tell how much you’re worth by the clothing that you’re wearing.”
Ji Yuan replied coldly, “My clothing is worth 1000 gold…”
Hua Yingxiong burst out jovially with laughter, “1000 gold?! Did I hear correctly? Not 1000 spirit stones or 1000 high grade spirit stones? Just my robe alone is worth a 100,000 high grade spirit stones!”
Then he pointed at the cultivators behind him, “And none of my subordinates’ clothing are worth less than 1000 high grade spirit stones here…”
Ji Yuan: …
Ling Feiyue, Little Princess and Bai Qianfeng were all indignant and they had all interrupted at almost the same time, “How dare you look down upon our lord!”
Bai Qianfeng hummed coldly, “You’ve better apologized fast!”
Shui Xisi rolled her eyes as she whispered almost incoherently, “I really think that Ji Yuan should get a new clothing…”
Ji Yuan pulled his robe to straighten it as he frowned, “What is wrong with my clothing?!”
Hua Yingxiong laughed, “Clothing makes all the differences in a cultivator. For example, my clothing is able to enhance my profound animus, is impervious to most divine swords and it can even weave itself almost instantaneously. So what about yours?”
Ji Yuan rubbed his chin to ponder for a while before he grinned, “I can disrobe myself with minimum effort and I can save my strength for my maidens on the bed.”
Hua Yingxiong and everyone: …
There were many flustered looks behind the curtain veils of the maidens in Ji Yuan’s party as they muttered silently; this is so lewd Ji Yuan, how can you say something like this to someone else…
Hua Yingxiong hummed coldly, “Every trade has a patron saint. But it seems like you’re the patron saint of the beggars and the clowns.”
Ji Yuan: …
“Are you picking on me?”
Ji Yuan asked with great annoyance now.
Hua Yingxiong laughed, “So what if I am? So what if I am not? What can you do to me?”
All of a sudden a purple lightning had descended from the heavens.
With a mighty shout, Hua Yingxiong had suddenly caught the purple lightning with his bare hand and extinguished it with a mighty explosive shockwave!
Immediately he had displayed his profound strength as a peaked great saint and his profound strength was mighty!
Even Ji Yuan was blinking his eyes when he saw Hua Yingxiong’s extraordinary display; this Hua Yingxiong is definitely a super cultivator!
Hua Yingxiong coldly smirked, “In the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, we have long eliminated the rivalries and secrets of the celestial clans. As a prince of the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire, I’ve access to the best cultivation resources as well as to the secrets of the top cultivation profound arts.”
Then he pointed at the cultivators behind him, “My saints and great saints here are stronger than the rest of the cultivators in the Celestial Realm because the Golden Majesty Celestial Empire ensures that the genius cultivators within our celestial fraternity has access to the best cultivation profound arts. Every one of them is equaled to the top 10 super cultivators in the rest of the Celestial Realm.”
Ji Yuan blinked his eyes; did he just offend twenty super cultivators?!
Just as Ji Yuan was rapidly thinking of his next course of action, Yu Jingjing hummed coldly. “How insolent! How dare you to be rude to my lord here. If my lord today don’t teach you a lesson today, you will think that the other celestial fraternities are only to be belittled by you. Let me tell you, you’re wrong! My lord here is a Sword Saint!”
Ji Yuan: …
He has not yet calculated his odds of winning. Moreover this is just a spat of words. There is no need to be so serious…
But he found himself saying, “Yea, if you don’t kneel and apologize to me, you’re not going to leave this place today.”
Hua Yingxiong turned to the cultivators behind him to laugh out jovially, “You’ve heard him, am I right? It is not I who challenge him but he is the one that is challenging me. As a prince, I ought to be gracious to his challenge. Hahaha.”
Then he added with a cold smirk, “Sword Saint? Did I forget to mention that I’ve killed no less than ten sword saints from the other celestial fraternities here already.”
