The Romantic Cultivator

When the short old man which was also the White Sword Monarch had gasped that Ji Yuan was creating his second Sword Domain, everyone was startled.

“Second Sword Domain? From the same Immortal Sword Array?”

Even an immortal like Bai Qianfeng was asking, “Is this even possible?”

The short old man smiled bitterly at Bai Qianfeng, “Well, did you tell him that this is impossible by the way?”

Bai Qianfeng muttered weakly, “Isn’t this common sense?”

Ling Feiyue muttered weakly, “Ji Yuan doesn’t have the common sense because he doesn’t even follow the normal norm…”

The short old man said solemnly, “A Sword Domain requires the cultivator to focus all their willpower into the boundary of the Sword Domain. After creating one Sword Domain, the cultivator’s mental strength will be completely drained. I remember that I have to sleep for 7 days and 7 nights after I have first created by Yang Thunder Sword…”

The Smiling Divine Maiden said quietly as she interrupted her father, “This second Sword Domain looks several times stronger than the first one. Maybe Ji Yuan did not use up all his mental energies. After all the first Sword Domain is just a wooden box.”

“I still don’t know why Ji Yuan wants to create a wooden box for?” The Lovely Empress muttered weakly.

Bai Qianfeng said quietly, “Did you notice that we can no longer sense his immortal scabbard now?”

Everyone was suddenly realizing the same too and was gasping…

Bai Qianfeng said, “And there are 9 divine swords that did not lose their heavenly relic in the wooden box too. Therefore he plans to use that 9 flying swords and his immortal scabbard at the same time.”

The short old man frowned, “So he plans to control his 9 divine swords with his sword energy fingers and one more finger to control his immortal scabbard…”

But he quickly said with a look of pride, “Let’s hope that this second Sword Domain is stronger than mine, Sword Immortal Ji Yuan.”

The Smiling Divine Maiden was also smiling as she turned to look at her father, “He is already stronger than you now, my old man. With two Sword Domains, he is now a full-step Sword Immortal.”

The short man frowned, “He is just partitioning his mental energies into two by creating one weaker Sword Domain and one stronger Sword Domain so that he can prove that he is my grand daddy. He can dream on. My Yang Thunder Sword can turn him into a worthless trash in the next instant.”

The Lovely Empress muttered almost incoherently, “Well, I didn’t see you using it on that Gu Bugu at the very first instant…”

This time the short old man could hear her. Or rather after being repeatedly commented upon by the Lovely Empress, the attention of the short old man was on her. “We are in the arena trial where everyone can see us. This is supposed to be my secret trump card against the Death God Mingwang. If I show it too soon then the Death God will be able to discover the weakness of my trump card. If the little rascal can defeat that Gu Bugu by pretending to be weak, so can I. There is no need to show my ultimate trump card just yet.”

All of a sudden an even more powerful profound animus was surrounding Ji Yuan and all the hundreds of divine swords were resonating and giving off a divine halo!

Everyone was suddenly startled and they were staring with disbelief…

“Is this the third Sword Domain already?!”

“Ji Yuan had created the third Sword Domain?!”

“And he has even divine harmony with all these divine swords?”

“How did he manage to convince all of these divine swords to be in unison with him?”

“A clean divine sword cannot divine harmony with anyone…”

The short old man was in total disbelief when he saw that Ji Yuan had created 3 Sword Domains, each one more powerful than the next!

Even Bai Qianfeng was shocked, “Is he on the way to become a Sword Deity in the future?”

All of a sudden the inertia profound animus around Ji Yuan had completely ceased and he was now slowly opening his golden eyes.

He had a grin on him as he stood up to put the wooden box on his back before he greeted everyone, “It is a big success. I am a half-step Sword Immortal now. Haha…”

Bai Qianfeng looked at him curiously, “Only a half-step Sword Immortal?”

“You didn’t faint for 7 days and 7 nights?” The Lovely Empress looked at Ji Yuan and then she looked at the short old man.

The short old man muttered weakly, “Don’t look at me like this…”

Then he asked Ji Yuan, “Little rascal, you don’t feel tired at all?”

Ji Yuan was perplexed as he asked curiously, “Why should I be tired?”

The short old man said, “You supposed to be using all your mental willpower to force these divine swords to submit to you and to use them to form your Sword Domain.”

Ji Yuan laughed softly, “Do I need to force them to submit when we all have a common goal?”

“What goal is that?” The Smiling Divine Maiden asked curiously.

Ji Yuan began to stammer, “Erm, saving the world together?”

Everyone: …

Ling Feiyue had suddenly stepped on Ji Yuan’s foot, “You have mastered 3 Sword Domains right? Why don’t you tell us what it is? Enough of your stupid trump cards.”

JI Yuan stammered weakly, “How the heck do you know that I have 3 Sword Domains?”

Ling Feiyue put her left hand on her face in shame, “We are watching you…”

Ji Yuan protested weakly, “You are not supposed to be watching my secret retreat…”

Bai Qianfeng hummed as she kicked Ji Yuan, “Is this even supposed to be a secret retreat in the first place? I am the one that make this Immortal Sword Array for you. And you are not even telling me about your Sword Domains?”

Ji Yuan said awkwardly, “My old master taught me never to reveal my trump cards…”

The short old man hit Ji Yuan hard on his head and said, “Well, your old master is here now and I’m telling you to reveal all your secret trump cards now. What the heck is this wooden coffin?”

Ji Yuan frowned as he became a little defensive, “It isn’t a wooden coffin but a wooden box. Wait a minute! How do I know that you are indeed my old master instead of my heart demon? Any proof? And moreover my master won’t ask me to do something like this. Therefore you are a fake…”

Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!

Bai Qianfeng had suddenly knocked Ji Yuan to crash thunderously to the end of her secret chamber, “I know that this hard knock would wake you up. Ji Yuan, you have better owned up 100% of your Sword Domains to us by today or this is over for us.”

The Lovely Empress giggled softly as she winked at Ji Yuan who was growling with pain at the other end, “Same here!”

Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he placed his wooden box in front of him, “I will never yield in to any threats!”

Ling Feiyue giggled softly as she turned to look at Bai Qianfeng, Zhi Jiugong, the Lovely Empress, the Smiling Divine Maiden and the White Sword Monarch. “Do you all agree that this is the most excellent chance for us to beat Ji Yuan seriously for once?”𝑶𝗏𝓛𝒩xt.𝒞𝑶𝔪

“I have really soft blows.” The Lovely Empress giggled, “But I don’t know if my Senior Protégé Sister Qianfeng here also has soft blows?”

Bai Qianfeng smiled alluringly, “My Abyssal Null Eyes don’t really care about any weak or strong blows. If he is lying then it is no mercy from my Abyssal Null Eyes who will not stop until the truth is revealed.”

Ji Yuan laughed all of a sudden as he tried to stand up with a manly pride, “I was only joking with all of you! Haha…”

But he was woefully saying to Xiang Li and Anyang: There goes some of my trump cards…

Anyang asked curiously: Some?

Xiang Li: ???

Ji Yuan explained with a chuckle: You will know my true trump cards very soon…
