A tall yellow mountain was seen among the horizon.
This place was the upper area of the final trial.
However a powerful barrier was blocking the passage of this tall yellow mountain and a black stele in front indicated that a group of cultivators were required to combine their profound power together in order to enter this passage.
A group of thirty cultivators were hence frowning in front of this passage as they waited for more powerful cultivators to arrive.
Soon they spotted a group of ten beautiful maidens and a rugged cultivator arriving at the scene.
When they saw this rugged cultivator, most of them had a disdain in their golden eyes for he was really rugged.
Several of them imdiately muttered, "Ten females and a male. That male must be the servant to this group."
Many of the cultivators in this group were nodding or agreeing with this conclusion.
This rugged cultivator was quickly making his way to their group and he was grinning as he waved loudly with a shout. "Yo!"
Many of the cultivators were humming softly, "He must have been sent by his group as a scout to check us and this vicinity out. For sure, he has a low status in his group."
Many of the cultivators in this group were young masters of their celestial clans and they all had a lofty status.
That rugged cultivator was actually Ji Yuan and when he saw that there was a group of cultivators in front, he had imdiately made his way to greet them.
The maidens were telling him that there was no hurry but Ji Yuan was happy to see so many cultivators after so ti that he was so excited that he had hastily sped ahead.
As for the short old man which was his old master, he was scouting in another part of the vicinity and was not in the group.
Ji Yuan laughed as he hastily greeted the group of 30 cultivators, "Fellow dao cultivators, greeting to all of you. I am Ji Yuan from the Desolate Celestial Fraternity…"
One haughty cultivator nad Zhan Wuji frowned, "You are from the Desolate Celestial Fraternity? So where is your beard? Did you lose your beard during your hasty breakthrough."
Many of the cultivators were laughing jovially at Ji Yuan now.
"Where is your beard?"
"You look like a poor cultivator…"
"Can't you get a more decent robe?"
"He is carrying a wooden scabbard on his back?"
"This wooden scabbard looks most ordinary…"
Ji Yuan frowned at the ntion of his wooden scabbard; he had given up his wooden box after his wooden scabbard was able to absorb the profound power of his wooden box and could conceal its identity as an immortal profound treasure. At this mont, his wooden scabbard looked like an ordinary scabbard and was not any profound treasure.
He protested, "Actually my wooden scabbard is most extraordinary and I am able to conceal quite a number of divine swords in it."
When the rest of the cultivators had heard him, they were all laughing nonstop and many were swaying as they laughed aloud.
"What did he just say?"
"He says that his wooden scabbard is a profound treasure?"
"He actually says his wooden scabbard contains many divine swords…"
"If he can afford a divine sword, why can't he afford a good robe?"
Ji Yuan said with a straight line, "As for my beard, I have purposely shaved it as it is no longer the in-thing in the Desolate Celestial Fraternity anymore."
This was a blatant lie of course.
Zhan Wuji laughed as he slamd his divine sword onto the ground, "Rubbish! I've just t several cultivators from the Desolate Celestial Fraternity and they still pride their beards dearly. So this Ji Yuan, what is your cultivation realm?"
Ji Yuan rolled his golden eyes with a startled look as he thought; there goes my story…
But he laughed aloud, "I am Great Saint Ji Yuan. Peaked Great Saint."
When he had declared his cultivation realm, half of the cultivators were startled; did they hear correctly that this Ji Yuan was actually a peaked great saint?!
If he was really a peaked great saint then many of them must greet him as their senior and they had actually just mocked him.
Zhan Wuji who was also a great saint but he was just a middle tier great saint, began to look at him with a look of disbelief, "You are really a Peaked Great Saint?"
Ji Yuan laughed jovially, "I am not only a Peaked Great Saint but I am also a Sword Immortal. Maybe I am even a half-step Sword Deity."
When he had said that he was a Sword Immortal, many of the cultivators were all laughing out loud as though this was the funniest thing that they had ever heard.
Ji Yuan raised his sword fingers and imdiately, dozens of swords from all the cultivators were all vibrating violently and so of the swords were even flying and landing in front of Ji Yuan!
Many of the cultivators were now using their profound strength to contain their swords and Zhan Wuji had even use his sword spirit to suppress his divine sword, "This is impossible… I have already divine harmonized with my divine sword…"
Ji Yuan laughed aloud, "I have only used a little of my profound strength. Do you now believe that I am a Sword Immortal?"
Zhan Wuji humd coldly as he stared with equal coldness at Ji Yuan, "There is only one Sword Immortal and he is my Ancestor Patriarch the White Sword Monarch. How dare you claim to be a Sword Immortal in front of him!"
Ji Yuan laughed, "Oh you know the White Sword Monarch? In front of him, I am his grand daddy too."
Zhan Wuji was flustered with rage as he raised his divine sword. At the sa ti, ten of the cultivators were also raising their divine swords with teething rage as well.
"I am Great Saint Zhan Wuji and I am also a Sword Saint of the White Sword Celestial Clan. I am afraid that you have offended the wrong cultivator today…"
"Zhan Wuji! What are you doing?" An old voice had suddenly appeared from the horizon and it was the White Sword Monarch!
Zhan Wuji was startled but he was imdiately rejoicing in his heart.
He and many of the cultivators were imdiately greeting, "Our great respects to our Ancestor Patriarch the White Sword Monarch!"
Zhan Wuji was imdiately smirking to Ji Yuan, "Our Ancestor Patriarch is not only a Sword Immortal but he is also extrely ancient. Today you will learn the price of insulting our Ancestor Patriarch…"
"Ji Yuan is my successor and he is also the successor to my White Sword Celestial Clan. Quickly pay your homage to him." The short old man had suddenly interrupted Zhan Wuji unhappily.
Zhan Wuji was shocked as he stared at Ji Yuan as he stamred, "But he… he says…"
The short old man frowned, "I've heard him alright. He is like the loudest kid here. He is indeed my grand daddy and a Sword Immortal too. Now pay your homage to him!"
Zhan Wuji was shocked as he looked at Ji Yuan who was grinning and also shrugging his shoulders as though he did not care…
But he was quickly bowing with his sword fingers at Ji Yuan and so did the rest of the cultivators from the White Sword Celestial Clan, "Our humble respect to Great Saint Ji Yuan…"
Ji Yuan laughed as he interrupted them, "Haha, you are all making awkward. There are other cultivators in this place. So what is this trial that we have here?"
This ti round, none of the cultivators dared to show him any disrespect.
Especially when Ji Yuan had pointed to the group of ten maidens behind him as he chuckled, "They are all my consorts."
Many of the cultivators were dumbfounded by Ji Yuan...
