Chapter 967 The End Of The SS Spirit Trial



Today was the day that Ji Yuan would be returning to the Celestial Realm. To be exact, back to the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth.

He was excited and sorrowful at the same time.

Excited because he would soon be collecting his trial rewards and meeting the rest of the maidens again such as Feng Minyue, Ling Feiyue, Shui Xisi, Yun Chi, the Lovely Empress Lu Jiangsu and Zhi Jiugong again.

Sorrowful because he was missing this world already and all the beautiful maidens that literally worshipped him like a hero.

Toward Xu Yifei, Tang Manni and Little Jie'Er, there was a guilt in his heart. It was especially so toward Xu Yifei.

He was aware of the affections that Xu Yifei had for him and if he did not have to return to the Celestial Realm, he would have taken Xu Yifei when he had the opportunity. However, he had resisted the opportunity to do so because he did not want to hurt her.

At the same time, he had recollected what Bai Qianfeng had said to Destiny. "So how are you going to plan to be with Ji Yuan?"

And Bai Qianfeng was suddenly looking at the skull ring that was on Ji Yuan's fingers. "Is this your plan?"

It was hard to escape from Bai Qianfeng's eyes as she had recognized the skull ring as a True Divinity profound treasure.

Destiny was forced to admit, "Yes, that's right but it is also not you have supposed. I have to remain in this realm for a little longer as there are some things that I need to do first."

Bai Qianfeng was surprised, "Oh?"n0velusB.c0M

But she did not ask for more clarity; after all, this was the Chaos Empress Sovereign that she was addressing and it was rude to question her if she did not want to talk about it.

At least Bai Qianfeng was quite relieved to know already that Destiny was on their side.

She had decided to ask Ji Yuan why Destiny was following her later and her question was answered by Ji Yuan. But this happened a little while later.

"Ji Yuan," she looked at him intently. "Once you are outside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth, call out my name 3 times and I will come to your aid. But don't call me while you are still inside the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth as I may get a severe backlash."

Ji Yuan was startled, "I can call you for help? You are not joining me?"

Destiny said woefully, "Not yet. The Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth is a Beyond Divinity profound treasure. Even for me, I can't bend the mystic laws that are imposed by it. Maybe only the Great Beyond Goddess herself can do so since her cultivation realm is at the Beyond Divinity."

Then she smiled, "When you are back at the Celestial Realm, maybe I can give you a pleasant surprise or two."

That was what Destiny had said to him before she had left.

There was another matter that had caught him by surprise.

Xiao Muhan had suddenly approached him when he was alone and told him that he would be staying in the Spirit Divine Realm and he would not be returning to the Celestial Realm anymore.

This surprised and shocked Ji Yuan at the same time.

"Because you want to be with Maiden Flower Ju?"

Xiao Muhan laughed, "Not only because of this. In the Spirit Divine Realm, I am a seventh realm cultivator and one of the strongest male cultivators here. In the Celestial Realm, my cultivation is like shit. Also, I am super fertile here and who knows, maybe one of my descendants would be able to bang a divine consort one day, Hahahaha...."

Ji Yuan muttered, "You can't bang a divine consort yourself and you want to depend on your descendants to do it? Well, I can do it myself..."

But he quickly smiled and said, "Well, it is your decision to make. I can't stop you and I'm going to miss an old friend like you. But can you please finish the painting for Destiny before I return to continue the trials of the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth? It has been 2 days already."

Xiao Muhan grumbled unhappily, "I am almost done and I will pass it to Destiny later. I didn't forget that I have taken your 100 million spirit stones and I will get the job done. It is just that it is a little hard to capture her astonishing divine aura, you know."

There was suddenly a solemn look on Ji Yuan as he asked, "Brother Muhan, do you have any last words to send back to the Desolate Celestial Fraternity and to some of your old friends?"

Xiao Muhan simply shook his head, "Nothing."

"Nothing?" Ji Yuan was greatly astonished.

But he was soon sighing, "Us two brushes, is going to become one brush now. I really miss you, Brother Xiao Muhan. Hope that we can see each other soon."

Xiao Muhan gave Ji Yuan a soft but firm pat, "Maybe. Maybe not..."

This was the same pat that Xiao Muhan had once given Ji Yuan many years ago when they had first met.

At that time, Xiao Muhan was already a half-step saint while Ji Yuan was still a new fifth realm golden celestial. They had met during a drinking session and Xiao Muhan was astonished that Ji Yuan had dared to offend a half-step saint like himself.

Ji Yuan was actually thinking fondly of the first time that he had met Xiao Muhan too.

At that time, Xiao Muhan was praising the great beauties of the Desolate Celestial Realm while Ji Yuan was rebuking him since he had a low opinion of the beautiful maidens at that time.

"I am going to paint the most beautiful portraits of the great beauties of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity." Xiao Muhan had declared.

"And I am going to insult the great beauties of the Desolate Celestial Fraternity with my poems," declared Ji Yuan loudly on another table.

And because they did not see eye to eye on this, a fight soon broke out between them.

Ji Yuan had said angrily to him, "Hehe. I am the Sect Leader of the Orthodox Sword Sect. Offending me is the same as offending hundreds of cultivators from my sect..."

"Hahahaha," Xiao Muhan had mocked him. "So the highest cultivation realm of your puny sect is only at the fifth cultivation realm?"

The two of them then angrily displayed their fists to beat each other up.

Xiao Muhan was actually no match for Ji Yuan in a fist fight even he was a half-step saint as Ji Yuan was too strong but eventually their fight was a draw after Ji Yuan had exhausted himself trying to beat up a half-step saint like Xiao Muhan who could not be so easily beaten up with just fists alone.

And they had a draw in their fight. Just like this, a tired Xiao Muhan had given Ji Yuan a soft pat like the one that he was giving him now.

At the same time, an exhausted Ji Yuan had also returned a soft pat on Xiao Muhan as well.

And the two of them returned to their drinking session with Xiao Muhan shouting jovially, "So Brother Ji Yuan, your drinks will be all on me..."

Since then, Ji Yuan had been drinking off from Xiao Muhan since he was a pauper cultivator while Xiao Muhan was a rich cultivator.

And they had also become the best of friends.

Now Ji Yuan was also patting Xiao Muhan on his shoulder just like the first time that they had met...

"Brother Xiao Muhan..."

"Ahh, Brother Ji Yuan... farewell..."

Just as Ji Yuan was recollecting the past events to this point, he was suddenly seized by a bright golden light to be taken away; his trial in this place had finally ended!

A short while later, Ji Yuan soon found himself in a dark spatial space and the voice of a Trial Spirit echoed to him, "Congratulations on completing the Spirit Trial. You shall receive a corresponding reward equivalent to your achievements in the Spirit Divine Realm that is tied with your Trust Points with the divine consorts in there. Now hold up your black ring in front of you..."

Ji Yuan had recognized the profound voice of the Trial Spirit as the one that had stolen his 3 golden talismans and he was determined to get his golden talismans back this time.

The Spirit Trial was suddenly gasping, "What?! You have 100 Trust Points with 41 Divine Consorts?!"

Ji Yuan was also stunned when he had heard the Trial Spirit.

41 Divine Consorts?!

Did he even have any contact with so many divine consorts in the very first place?

Maybe this was an error and he did not want to waste such a good opportunity to exploit this error.

So he quickly laughed aloud, "Haha.... So what is my rewards for this Trial?"

After his rewards have been determined, he is not going to cough out his trial rewards even if the Trial Spirit discovers that this may be due to an error.

The Trial Spirit said after a short hesitation, "You are the top cultivator for this trial. Only not that, you have also unlocked the hidden reward for this trial as well for undermining the Six Supreme Gods of the Greater Spirit Realm."

"Hidden reward? Undermining the Six Supreme Gods?" Ji Yuan was frowning with a perplexed look; he did not remember ever undermining the Six Supreme Gods as a matter of fact...

But he was soon grinning, "Then my rewards will be?"

He had better not ask too many questions now or else he would have screwed up with his rewards. This was an error that he was keen to exploit!

Xiang Li and Anyang were also quite excited too; they were always excited when Ji Yuan was receiving his rewards. Maybe the rewards could even benefit them too!
