I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 340: Mysterious Great Empress, All In One Sweep

Chapter 340: Mysterious Great Empress, All In One Sweep

Under the Kun King’s lead, Shen Tian entered the valley without any opposition from the Kun elders.

Shen Tian could clearly feel the changes in the surrounding Spirit Qi as he stepped into the valley.

The Spirit Qi in this valley was ten times thicker than that of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground. All sorts of exotic plant life flourished all around.

If not for the fact that he had a Divine Firmament Saint’s reputation to upkeep, Shen Tian felt like secretly collecting some.

Ahem, ahem...

More importantly, this valley had a very special array. It was more clear and detailed than the other arrays as if it had been refined before.

The more clear and detailed an array was, the more easily one could gain enlightenment and improve their cultivation level.

Cultivating long-term in such a place would enable one to reap twice the benefits for the same effort.

Those Mighty Prowess Kun elders stayed in seclusion here to greatly improve and break through to the Sage stage!

“Saint, I can only accompany you to this point.”

The Kun King led Shen Tian to the periphery of the valley. The Spirit Qi here was already so thick that one could see it as if it was a mist.

Taking a deep breath here was like eating an elixir.

It was worth mentioning that there was a red zone marked out in blood in front of the Kun King and Shen Tian.

The Kun King said, “The forbidden tablet has a very strange allure. All those who go near it will have an intense desire to try and decipher it. And then... they will succumb to a dire fate.

“So I cannot be by your side, helping you with a protective array. You have to make the rest of the journey on your own.”

The Kun King took out a jade pendant. “This is the Great Void Divine Jade. Keep it with you. If you meet with any danger or injuries or... Ahem... This jade will automatically break into pieces and teleport you back out.

“Of course, if the forbidden tablet insists on holding onto you, this jade will not be able to bring you back.

“So you must be very mindful of your safety at all times.

“Don’t ever lose yourself in the deep end.”

After accepting the Great Void Divine Jade and noticing the Kun King’s concerned expression, Shen Tian felt somewhat uncomfortable.

However, as the Divine Firmament Saint, he should be fearless.

Shen Tian smiled. “Kun King, don’t worry. I have nothing to fear. If I cannot decipher the forbidden tablet, my seven-foot body might as well be buried inside the tablet.”

With that, Shen Tian spread open his golden wings and shot off.

At that moment, Shen Tian looked extremely dashing and heroic.

Kun Ming and Kun Yu were both silent as they watched Shen Tian’s departing figure. They remained quiet for a long time after.

Kun Yu’s blue hair was gently swept back by the breeze. “Father, do you think the Divine Firmament Saint will really be able to decipher the forbidden tablet?”

Kun Ming was also somewhat subdued. “It’s clear that he can become an elite practitioner via just normal cultivation. Why is he risking his life for this? Is it worth it?”

The Kun King sighed. “Perhaps this is the true Son of Providence! It wouldn’t matter if he hadn’t heard of the forbidden tablet. But now that he has the chance, how can he refuse?”

As for whether Shen Tian would be able to decipher the forbidden tablet?

The Kun King did not dare to speculate. But even if Shen Tian failed, he probably wouldn’t die, right?

Since ancient times, all those prodigies who had tried to decipher the forbidden tablet, although most of them had deviated down the wrong path or suffered self-combustion, only about 90% died.

About eight or ten managed to endure the process and re-emerge with refreshed souls and bodies.

Although they hadn’t obtained any formidable technique, their potential had gotten a huge boost, and they had ended up doing great things.

As for whether Shen Tian would be able to successfully decipher the forbidden tablet and become the second “Great Kun Thearch”, the Kun King did not harbor high hopes for that.

Nonetheless, given Shen Tian’s natural talent and providence, it should not be difficult for him to escape relatively unharmed from the forbidden tablet.

Shen Tian would definitely improve greatly after being honed by that tablet.

And this was probably the main reason why the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader had agreed to let Shen Tian try deciphering that forbidden tablet!

What didn’t kill you would make you stronger.

Since ancient times, which great prodigy had never taken a risk? A prodigy who didn’t take risks, could they still call themselves a prodigy?

The Kun King gazed in the direction which Shen Tian left and muttered to himself, “If the Divine Firmament Saint is able to return successfully, we will make him our human partner and fully support his efforts in becoming a Thearch.”

Shen Tian was an exceptional prodigy, so they couldn’t let the Dragon race monopolize him!

...

Shen Tian had no idea what the Kun King was thinking.

He had already reached the valley’s core area and was unable to continue further.

He could already feel the tremendous attraction emanating from the valley. If he continued any further, he might encounter some trouble.

Moreover, the Spirit Qi here had accumulated into a very thick fog.

If Shen Tian’s Connate Constitution didn’t have an X-ray ability, he would have been completely blind and lost all sense of direction.

“This is a bit similar to the Spirit Fog Mountain Valley but more challenging. This forbidden tablet is not that simple!”

Shen Tian gave a slight frown. He had already found the forbidden tablet.

It was a 49-feet-tall bronze tablet situated in the center of the valley.

To be honest, the tablet didn’t look that big to Shen Tian. His Sky-Smashing Palm was easily several hundred feet wide.

But after standing right in front of it, Shen Tian felt like he was face-to-face with an entire universe—an unfathomable black hole.

Shen Tian had seen the tablet left behind by the Eternal Thearch on Dragon God Island. That tablet was at least 100 feet tall and covered in mysterious runes.

However, this tablet was very simple. There was only a black vortex design on it, which held an infinite power of attraction. It was like all Spirit Qi, living creatures, divine consciousness, and souls would be immediately swallowed on contact.

Shen Tian felt that this forbidden tablet was far more threatening than that eternal life tablet.

Shen Tian took a deep breath and opened his arms.

Suddenly, a figure dressed in white appeared in front of him.

Shen Tian smiled. “I have the Triple Light Divine Water and three Sage-level artifacts. I cannot take that risk.”

Shen Tian B nodded. “I have the chaotic aura inside me, and I don’t know if there will be any long-term side effects. So let me be your stand-in.”

If they could decipher the forbidden tablet, it would be worth it.

If something really went wrong with the forbidden tablet, Shen Tian would not feel too bad losing this clone tainted by the chaotic aura.

After all, this chaotic aura was like a parasite residing inside Shen Tian B’s body. It absorbed so much five-element essence but was unable to be refined.

And Shen Tian did not dare to promise that this chaotic aura would not explode or go crazy in the future.

The forbidden tablet was said to be able to swallow all kinds of energy. It had even absorbed some prodigies into it.

And the chaotic aura inside Shen Tian could also swallow all sorts of energy. Even Sages did not dare to touch it.

Shen Tian wanted to see what would happen when these two things came together.

Who would win?

...

Shen Tian B approached the forbidden tablet while the original Shen Tian headed away toward the valley’s borders.

When watching something unfold, it was very important to maintain a safe distance.

Everyone knew that when disasters happened, many bystanders would end up as collateral damage.

Further, a bit further...

Shen Tian retreated several dozen miles away until he could barely see the tablet anymore. He then finally came to a stop.

Meanwhile, Shen Tian B was already sitting cross-legged in front of the forbidden tablet and studying its patterns.

Shen Tian was also on high alert. The moment he felt that anything was not quite right, he would immediately break off the divine consciousness connection.

In the cultivation world, one must always put safety first!

Shen Tian B studied the tablet intensely. His right hand caressed the runes on the tablet, suddenly feeling an intense desire and yearning for it.

Shen Tian B felt as if the vortex image on the tablet was slowly starting to spin, exuding a wondrous aura.

And within that vortex image, he could almost see all life and death in the universe, the rise and fall of the heavens, and the decline of gods and demons.

He saw a massive vortex crossing the endless Milky Way, swallowing countless gods and demons.

Headless giant Dragons, Phoenixes with broken wings, Buddha weeping tears of blood, dismembered Heavenly Thearchs...

All sorts of powerful beings were sucked into the vortex and endless whirlpool, eventually being dissolved into nothing.

And in the center of that indomitable vortex was a white sacred lotus flower, its petals still closed.

The lotus flower exuded a pure, harsh, and very formidable sword aura.

Shen Tian felt somewhat dazed. This special effects thing was really something!

He could feel that this ancient tablet was not that simple!

...

Shen Tian carefully started deciphering the tablet. The Heart of the Sword inside his body vibrated.

It was like he was resonating along with this tablet, deciphering some hidden and forbidden indomitable technique from it.

The white lotus flower suddenly bloomed, turning the entire black vortex into a dazzling sight. And that shapeless power of attraction seemed to increase by over a hundred times, such that Shen Tian’s divine consciousness was instantly sucked into it.

Yes, Shen Tian’s. Not Shen Tian B’s.

Several dozen miles away, Shen Tian’s eyes suddenly turned misty as his divine consciousness was drawn into a wondrous void.

Thousands of miles away in the Abyss of Despair, on a desolate island...

Shen Tian, dressed in his Longyuan Divine Armor, was boiling eggs in tea with Ye Qingcang. The fragrant smell of the tea-infused eggs was mouth-watering.

One man, one spirit. One youth, one elderly. Both were eagerly eating those eggs. Suddenly, Shen Tian froze.

He looked at Ye Qingcang. “Damn, old man. Didn’t you say that nothing bad would happen—”

Before he could complete his sentence, Shen Tian’s eyes misted over.

Ye Qingcang was dumbstruck.

What’s happening?

It’s just a simple trip to the Kun race territory to benefit from a fortuitous opportunity. How did things end up like this?

Ye Qingcang could clearly feel that Shen Tian’s soul was being dragged into another forbidden void.

It would be very difficult for him to return on his own if no one pulled him back.

“Damn, have we bitten off more than we can chew?”

Ye Qingcang quickly stuffed the rest of his into his mouth before gulping down the whole bowl of tea soup.

Able to suck a soul even from thousands of miles away, is this some great power from the netherworld?

Even if it was really some great power from the netherworld, it couldn’t possibly be able to snatch this kid’s soul from right under my nose!

Damn, this mortal world is not that simple!

The corners of Ye Qingcang’s mouth twitched. He quickly formed some hand seals.

Want to take my godson’s soul? Not that easy!

Main body, quickly come and help me pull back this soul!

Millions of miles away, in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground...

Scores of cultivators were kicked out of the God of War Pagoda.

In the next second, the towering God of War Pagoda rose into the air and ripped a big hole in the fabrics of space before barreling right through it.

All those cultivators, who had traveled from afar just to use the God of War Pagoda, could only stare on dumbfounded as the pagoda disappeared.

They had traveled for months before finally arriving at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground to use the God of War Pagoda.

“Why did it suddenly fly away again?”

“Eh? Did you say “again”!?”
