While Ji Yuan was talking to Xiao Muhan, he was looking out for any sights that were from either Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Lin Antian.

However there was none to speak of.

It was as though they had totally disappeared after using the golden talismans.

This was the truth; after they had disappeared from the ‘arena’, they had decided to flee instead of fighting Ji Yuan again.

While Lin Antian had no more golden talisman but he was unwilling to take the risk of fighting Ji Yuan again and he had quickly made his concerns known to Grand Matriarch Xi.

Even though Grand Matriarch Xi still have some golden talisman to restore her profound strength but she was now unwilling to fight Ji Yuan as well; she totally had no idea the limit of an eighth rank immortal positioning cultivator was. This was the legendary peak and only the desolate monsters would possess such strength.

For Jue Jie to have an eighth rank immortal class colosseum giant to be his spirit animus, he must first kill one and to obtain its rarely dropped artefact core. The number of golden celestials required to slay it was unimagined!

It must be noted that a desolate monster was stronger than a cultivator due to its strong body, regeneration ability and near unlimited profound strength. A single seventh rank desolate monster was sometimes more than a match for a saint and depending on the class of the seventh rank desolate monster, it could even kill a great saint.

Any desolate monster above the eighth rank was a total freak and it was near impossible for any cultivators to deal with. Even heaven-step divine swords in the hands of a great saint may not enough to deal any damage.

So when she saw Ji Yuan had two saint-step divine sword which was more powerful than a heaven-step, celestial-step and an immortal-step divine sword, she was almost freaked out. Moreover Ji Yuan was an eighth rank cultivator with two sword spirits.

​ One to one, she could not even escape from him for his speed was even greater than her and he could flash between one cultivator to another at ease.

At one point of time, she was even thinking of using Yu Jingjing, her direct protégé as an hostage but Ji Yuan seemed to anticipate it and in fact, he even increased his profound strength and pursue her relentless each time she was even near or looking at Yu Jingjing. This was a warning to her and she was forced to heed this warning.

She had also wanted to use Xiao Muhan as her hostage but when she saw Ji Yuan kicking his ‘best friend’ so hard, she thought that this may be a bad choice after all.

Instead she focused on fighting Ji Yuan with everything that she had got.

But when Ji Yuan displayed his two miracle sword arts, she had completely lost her courage to fight with him.

So she lied to Jue Jie to give him the impression that they would be making a counter-attack but behind him, she was already flashing her golden talisman and this was not lost on Lin Antian who nodded in response.

Even when Jue Jie had died, he had assumed that Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping and Lin Antian would be making their counter-attacks.

The truth was that they had all exhausted their profound strength fighting Ji Yuan and even Grand Matriarch Xi’s Holy Oracle Goddess was about to be extinguished.

So fleeing was their only option now.

When Ji Yuan saw that they had fled, he shouted to the vicinity, “Old Witch Xi, where are you?!”

But Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping did not even dare to response to him on the outskirt of the Gods’ Monument City.

She told Lin Antian, “Let’s go for now. We can still live to fight another day. It is not so easy to kill a great saint like us.”

Lin Antian was trembling as he weakly said, “I… still have a hidden trump card to use against him.”

Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, “Why didn’t you use it then? Tell me.”

Usually no cultivators would tell another cultivator about their trump card but she had purposely said, “Tell me.”.

As Lin Antian was her living furnace, she had complete control over him and moreover a living furnace would never think of attacking their master.

Lin Antian answered, “It is my divine tree spirit animus that I’ve found in the Empyrean Warrior Labyrinth. It is able to absorb all five elements and unlike the desolate monster spirit animus, I am able to summon it at a low cost and it can even slow down Ji Yuan.”

Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping was startled, “Then why didn’t you use it just now?”

Lin Antian weakly said, “That is because this is my trump card and I can only use it only once! Moreover I don’t want any of the other cultivators to see my trump card.”

This was entire logical and moreover Lin Antian had not reached the stage of using his trump card yet.

Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping smiled slowly, “Next time when we are copulating, please tell me all your abilities so that we can sync together to kill Ji Yuan. He is really a beast of a man and I want to free my innocent protégés from his evil hands.”

Ji Yuan had waited for some time for Grand Matriarch Xi Jingping to return and it was apparent to him and all the cultivators that were presented that Ji Yuan had indeed won this battle!

There was no round three for Ji Yuan.

Ji Yuan laughed triumphantly as he walked away from the ‘arena’ with Yu Jingjing and Xiao Muhan.

Many of the cultivators were bowing their heads and extending their hands to bow in Ji Yuan’s direction for Ji Yuan deserved their fullest respect for reaching a realm that no one had ever reached.

“His name is Ji Yuan…”

“I shall remember his name…”

“Isn’t he from the Desolate Celestial Realm and supposed to have a… beard?”

“His robe did not seem to radiate any profound animus… is just a common robe?”

“Don’t be disrespectful to him! He probably can hear us…”

“This Ji Yuan is truly too terrifying!”

Ji Yuan had gathered Yu Jingjing and Xiao Muhan and soon they were with Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Feng Minyue and Ling Feiyue.

Dream Mist had also followed Ji Yuan but she had stood some distance away.

The first thing he had said was, “Darn! Senior Mo Bei isn’t even here to watch my duel?!”

Ling Feiyue interrupted coldly, “Instead of embracing us, the first thing that has come to your mind is actually a man?”

Ji Yuan weakly protested, “He is still my Patriarch Uncle Mo Bei. I’ve married his grand niece Xue Qianxue… Haha…”

Bai Qianfeng hummed softly, “Look at you. It is just an eighth ream immortal positioning. It isn’t strong at all. This goddess here isn’t impressed by you.”

Even though Yu Jingjing, Xiao Muhan and Feng Minyue were all impressed by Ji Yuan but Bai Qianfeng did have her reasons for saying so and she actually had very right.

Ji Yuan laughed weakly because he knew that Bai Qianfeng was actually a goddess and she had attained the initial stage of the ninth immortal positioning. She was actually a lot more powerful than him if her cultivation strength was not being suppressed.

But her love for him was genuine and Ji Yuan had remembered how she had sacrificed her cultivation to use the profound strength of her peaked cultivation to slay an epic 7th rank desolate beast, saving him and everyone in his sect poor mountain peaks.

Therefore he was grinning while looking deeply at her, “My Qianfeng…”

Obviously Bai Qianfeng saw his expression and she had looked away shyly…

Yun Chi suddenly interrupted Ji Yuan, “So you can use your spirit animus again?”𝑛𝚘𝓋𝐞𝓵𝑵𝐄xt.𝑐𝔬𝚖

Ji Yuan began to frown as he looked at Yun Chi, “That is weird. This time my spirit animus is not dormant. Why?”

“Don’t tell me that it is you…”

Yun Chi quickly laughed, “You think too much, as always.”

All of a sudden Ji Yuan said excitingly but he was also anxious as well, “Everyone, please follow me! We have an old friend here and let me bring you to Yang Mi!”

“Oh? Not Senior Mo Bei?” Ling Feiyue could not help teasing him.

Ji Yuan took a hurried look at her while answering weakly, “Not Mo Bei!”
