The Romantic Cultivator

Chapter 648 The Goddess Star Palace (4)

Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was burning with a brilliant golden flare from her profound animus. At this moment she was fighting a dark abyssal monster with her golden fingers that were displaying flickers of golden swords that were being displayed by her profound power.

Although her dozens of golden swords were extremely powerful and it hurts the dark abyssal monster that screamed maddening as it exploded with a brilliant light but it did not really seem to do much of a damage through the protective dark animus of this creature.

Ji Yuan was startled for each of the golden swords that were hurled was more powerful than his grand cross sword art. At the same time, he was fascinated by the dark abyssal monster for he had never seen any creature with a totally dark profound animus before.

But this did not stop him from hurling his two emperor-step divine swords as two powerful projectiles that were directed at this dark abyssal monster.

Bai Qianfeng had revealed her two Abyssal Eyes and she was hurling yellow and red lightning at the dark abyssal monster.

Yun Chi displayed her 24 sword wings into 24 whirling blades and this was the very first time that Ji Yuan saw that she was using all her profound might to do so.

As for Shui Xisi, she gave a soft shout before she hurled a long beam of profound energy with her divine sword.

The Lovely Empress tagged along and did not do anything as she did not have any projectile attacks to use at this vast range.

As expected, all their profound attacks did nothing to hurt this dark abyssal monster because this dark abyssal monster was truly a monster from beyond. However, they did manage to distract this dark abyssal monster as it momentarily turned to evaluate this new threat.

This little distraction was enough for the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing as she seized this opportunity for a melee profound attack as she summoned forth a brilliant golden flaming sword with her left hand to chop off the head of this dark abyssal monster.

However this was not enough to kill this dark abyssal monster and its severed body was now attempting to hastily regenerate itself.

Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing seemed to know this and she was already deploying all her golden swords together into the body of this dark abyssal monster as she imploded it to millions of dark matter pieces.

This time round, the dark abyssal monster was finally dead and she heaved a soft sigh before she looked in the direction of Ji Yuan, Yun Chi, Bai Qianfeng, Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress.

Although there were no smiles on her countenance but she murmured softly, "Thank you."

By this time Old Reverend Beiyuan had joined Ji Yuan and laughed jovially, "Hohohoho. I told you so. There is no need to help her. She can cope all by herself."

Ji Yuan stared at Old Reverend Beiyuan and he was laughing bitterly, "That is one hell of a tough monster and you did not help her?"

Old Reverend Beiyuan grinned, "She did win, right?"

Ji Yuan and everyone: …

An exhausted Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing took a look at Old Reverend Beiyuan before saying coldly to no one in particular before flying off, "Now you know why he is so unlikeable."

Old Reverend Beiyuan laughed jovially as he enveloped his profound animus on Ji Yuan and his group before he hastily sped off after Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, "Hey! Don't be so petty. I have full confidence in you, that's why I am saying so. Hey, hey Yuexing! Wait for me! I don't want to lose you in this space again…"

Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing paused to turn her head back briefly before humming coldly, "Are you being sarcastic again?"

When she had said so, she had began to speed off with Old Reverend Beiyuan laughing as he sped hastily after her.

Ji Yuan actually did not know what was wrong between them but if he were Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing, he would also be irritated by him. It was because he had only watched silently while Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing was battling with her life. It was no wonder that she was so pissed off by him.

He turned to look discreetly at Old Reverend Beiyuan for a while and wondered if he did so on purpose; it was because in the past he had often pretended not to aid Shangguan Yan and Fairy Ye Chengxi, including his son so that they could learn to fight without depending on him.

But he soon quit this notion of his for this Old Reverend Beiyuan really looked too cold and playful to be putting on an act.

He had suddenly realized that he had been attacked by the dark animus of the dark abyssal monster earlier and that he must purged it immediately. And he was not the only one that had this problem; Shui Xisi and the Lovely Empress were also looking pale.

As for Yun Chi and Bai Qianfeng, they looked unaffected.

Soon, they were off flying through the spatial space again.

It took more than an hour before Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing seemed to have regained her composure and her profound animus had stabilized again.

When that happened, she quickly catch up to Old Reverend Beiyuan and flew next to him to say coldly, "We are nearly at the Goddess Star Palace soon. Are you sure that you want to take them to that place? They may not survive in that place on their own."

Old Reverend Beiyuan laughed jovially, "Hohohoho. I can protect them. I am a mighty God Immortal."

Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing hummed softly before she warned coldly, "Then you have better kept this part of your promise."

With that she had sped ahead of Old Reverend Beiyuan but it was not much as she maintained a close proximity to the party.

However Ji Yuan had overheard their conversations and he shivered to think to think that this Old Reverend Beiyuan would be doing his 'best' to 'protect them'.

Ji Yuan was muttering weakly to himself: Well, if you really want to protect me then why don't you offer a hand to purge the dark animus that is afflicting me out first...

The maidens in his group were also thinking likewise as they exchanged an awkward look at one another; none of them really trust this Old Reverend Beiyuan.

It was a little longer before Ji Yuan had finally purged the dark animus out of his body and he began to inhale heavily to ask Old Reverend Beiyuan, "I am so far away from that dark abyssal monster and yet I was attacked by its dark animus when its hundreds of eyes looked at me. What kind of a monster is this dark abyssal monster?"

Old Reverend Beiyuan laughed, "It is one of the first monsters of creation but it feeds off the lights of creation. We are just unlucky to encounter one today. These things are not that common and they are always solitary."

Ji Yuan asked, "What lights of creation? I don't have any."

Old Reverend Beiyuan laughed jovially, "Your aura is the light of creation. These things feed off your auras."

Ji Yuan muttered weakly as he suddenly realized why he felt so weak when he had displayed his profound animus, "It is stronger than any of the desolate monsters that I have ever seen."

Although the fight looked easy with the involvement of the Grand Holy Saintess Qi Yuexing but it was actually a most difficult fight.

"Well, I don't know why it is here. Usually they don't go near to the center of the universe where the lights of creation are the brightest…" Old Reverend Beiyuan simply shrugged his shoulders.

"You mean you can't explain it?" Ji Yuan had cut him short.

Old Reverend Beiyuan laughed jovially and did not answer Ji Yuan, "Hohoho. In a while time, we will reach the center of the universe…"
