The Romantic Cultivator

JI Yuan was actually not angry when he had heard the voices of these divine swords.

Rather, he was glad as he startled to laugh aloud at these insults.

When he had faced these divine swords, he felt a little awkward and he actually did not know how to convince them over to his side.

But when these divine swords were mocking him, Ji Yuan had remembered the days when he was an arrogant young master and he was trading daily insults with the other young masters.

Rather than demoralizing JI Yuan, he was grinning in his mind and this aroused his fighting spirit!

On the outside, none of his group could see his expressions as Ji Yuan was having an exchange with the thousand over divine swords via his sword intentions; on the surface, Ji Yuan was actually meditating serenely.

Ji Yuan laughed aloud as he displayed his two emperor-step divine swords in front of him, “These two are my divine swords. Are you superior or inferior to them?”

Half of the divine swords became silent.

Ji Yuan laughed as he displayed his two sword spirits, “Have you ever have a master with two sword spirits?”

Many of the divine swords were silence…

“Know why I have two sword spirits?”

Then he pointed at the beautiful sword spirit on his left forearm with a long sigh, “I didn’t want to say this. This sword spirit on my left is something that I’ve cherished a lot. It is something that I am unwilling to mention even to Xiang Li. It’s not as if she can remember this sword spirit…”

Xiang Li: ???

Ji Yuan continued, “I have almost never used this sword spirit with Xiang Li unless I am really desperate to win my battle. Doing so will only make this sword spirit even more powerful because she wants to protect Xiang Li…”

Xiang Li asked: Isn’t this just a sword spirit that can increase speed?

Ji Yuan continued as he said to the hundreds of divine swords, “This sword spirit used to be Xiang Li’s old mistress. When she had learnt that Xiang Li is now my spirit entity, she is willing to become my sword spirit so that she can be with Xiang Li forever.”

Xiang Li was startled: I have a former mistress?!

Anyang was startled: Our lord has never told us about this…

Ji Yuan said melancholy, “She told me that in the past Xiang Li had served her and had even helped her to fulfill her wish but now, her only wish now is to serve Xiang Li and I should protect her forever.”

Then he said, “With such a conviction, do you think that my sword will be inferior to your former masters?”

“And moreover I have two sword spirits that have successful merged together. What is the possibility of your master having the courage to try to merge two sword spirits into their cultivation core? Most will probably die because of this experience.”

A great number of divine swords had stopped wavering and were listening…

Ji Yuan called out, “Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang, please show yourself up!”

When Ji Yuan had said that, Fairy Xiang Li and Fairy Anyang had suddenly appeared in their spirt forms and they were so beautiful in spirit that many of the divine swords had stopped moving to admire them…

He said, “They are the souls of my two emperor-step divine swords. If you are all willing to serve them, then they would be your mistresses in the future.”

Xiang Li giggled as she winked at the hundreds of divine swords, “Together, we can be stronger together!”

Anyang was laughing softly too, “Are we inferior to your former masters?”

Many of the hundreds of divine swords had completely stopped moving now, tamed by Xiang Li and Anyang into submitting to their wills.

“If you look at my sword spirits then you will also know that I have also mastered the sword of destruction and is able to use my life force energies as a weapon. I am young and have plenty of vital life energies. My grand cross is a miracle sword art and I want to use display my life force energies into it to create a sword art that can destroy the heavens and the earth. I can do it. But I need your help to create a Sword Domain.”

Many of the divine swords were asking, “What sort of a Sword Domain are you thinking of creating?”

Ji Yuan inhaled slowly before saying, “I want to create a Life and Death Sword Domain to contain my own life force energies so that I won’t die from using my grand cross as a life force energies profound art.”

Many of the divine swords were saying, “Since you have already overcome the Dark Malevolent Domain in the past, you can surely create such a sword art eventually. But do you really need to create a Sword Domain for this? With the power of your immortal scabbard, sooner or later you will be able to display your life force grand cross sword art.”

Ji Yuan laughed softly, “It is still not earth shaking enough without a Sword Domain. I want to leave my sword mark in the heavens and the earth. Also, this is not the only Sword Domain that I want to create.”

The hundreds of divine swords: ???

Ji Yuan said slowly, “If I only manage to create one sword art and one Sword Domain then I can only be a half-step Sword Immortal. And I can’t use all of you, right?”

Then he grinned, “Don’t you want me to use all of you, so that we won’t ever be green by anyone again? No longer will you need to change your master ever again and I would be your one and only master. All of you will be my pioneer swords!”

The hundreds of divine swords were resonating as they echoed: How? How?!

Ji Yuan said, “My Thousand Sacred Swords is able to create swords out of my profound energies. Although it is still a powerful sword art but I still have to consume my profound energies to create a sword. What if I am able to gather all of you to be my swords? So I am able to create a Million Swords Field using all of you. To use all swords under the heavens as my own and I will name this sword art the Harker of the Million Swords to gather all my swords into a single impale.”

The hundreds of divine swords seemed stunned; was this even possible in the first place?

Ji Yuan tapped on his immortal scabbard and said, “This is my immortal scabbard. It is able to contain an infinity amount of profound sword energies. If you are willing to discard your physical body to follow me then I can promise you that not only can this be done but I can also help to evolve you in the future.”

He then displayed his sword intentions to show the hundreds of divine swords how he could create such a sword art.

He emphasized, “Then we shall never be green again.”

When he had said that, the hundreds of divine swords resonated loudly as they agreed with Ji Yuan!

With two Sword Domains, Ji Yuan was fully a Sword Immortal now and not merely a half-step!

All the divine swords in the vicinity had completely submitted to Ji Yuan now!

“Wait a minute.” Ji Yuan said to the hundreds of divine swords. “We still need to create one more sword art.”

The hundreds of divine swords exchanged wondrous and bewilderment; their new master was still able to create one more sword art?

Ji Yuan pointed at his sword scabbard as he laughed, “I need to make a box for my immortal scabbard or else it would be too obvious. I can hide my profound animus but I can’t hide the immortal animus of my scabbard. I need 9 divine swords from the hundreds of divine swords here. The stronger the better. And I will name them Sword Number 1 to 9.”

The hundreds of divine swords asked, “You need a Sword Domain for this?”

Ji Yuan laughed, “Yun Chi have her 24 immortal swords and I will have my 9 flying swords to counter her. Haha…”

Then he grinned, “I shall call this my Flying Swords Domain.”

The hundreds of divine swords asked Ji Yuan when they understood his sword intentions, “Do you need such a weak Sword Domain?”

Ji Yuan laughed, “Weak has its advantage too. The first two Sword Domains will exhaust me but this weak Sword Domain won’t. Moreover I can use this to hide my true trump cards from the others.”

Then he began to say solemnly without elaborating, “I can also use this wooden box to train my sword energy fingers.”

Xiang Li asked Ji Yuan curiously, “Big Brother, you have 10 fingers. So if you are training your sword energy fingers, don’t you need 10 fingers?”

JI Yuan laughed awkwardly, “I may need 1 extra finger to scratch my backside… I mean when I rubbing myself, you don’t want to cut yourself right? Never overdo something or it will surely backfire. Haha…”

Xiang Li: …

Anyang: …

The hundreds of divine swords trembled as they said to Ji Yuan, “Creating 1 Sword Doman is hard enough. Creating 3 successive Sword Domains will increase the chances of failure. Do you really want to do it?”

Ji Yuan grinned, “Even if I were half-dead from creating 3 Sword Domains, I will still do it. It is because I don’t want to be green. Do you want to be green by the others?”

All the hundreds of divine swords answered resoundingly, “We don’t want to be green by anyone else!”𝑶𝗏𝓛𝒩xt.𝒞𝑶𝔪

Ji Yuan nodded as he started to raise his fingers physically to say to the hundreds of divine swords, “Very good! Then Xiang Li and Anyang will be your new mistresses in the future and you must protect them well so others will not be able to green you in the future. Now we shall begin finally!”

Fairy Anyang muttered weakly to Ji Yuan: My lord, are you sure? They are expecting you to create one Sword Domain to fight the Great Demon God but you are erm… creating 3 Sword Domains?

Ji Yuan said to Anyang: Creating 1 Sword Domain has the chance to die. Creating 3 Sword Domain also has the chance to die. We may as well go for as many as possible.

Xiang Li giggled: I totally agree with Big Brother.

Anyang protested weakly: The chances of failure are different…
