I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 324: A Terrifying Thought!

Chapter 324: A Terrifying Thought!

The Jade Water Sword had already been sheathed as Shen Tian stood there like a heavenly immortal.

However, Qi Shaoxuan frowned, his eyes filled with astonishment and solemnity. He discovered that a portion of his life essence had been shaved away, or it could be said that his lifespan had been reduced.

Although the lost life essence was not much—at most 30 to 50 years of lifespan—and it could be restored, there was more to it.

Shen Tian’s strike just now involved an extremely profound nomological realm, so Qi Shaoxuan’s defense was almost useless. It was extremely strange.

If Shen Tian could release such a slash, he could do it again 10 times or even 100 times.

If so, then wouldn’t he be able to wipe out Qi Shaoxuan’s whole lifespan?

Not to mention, Qi Shaoxuan did not believe that the strike just now was Shen Tian’s limit.

Although the time he had spent with Shen Tian was short, Qi Shaoxuan knew very clearly that Shen Tian was a true gentleman who kept an extremely low profile and was humble.

Brother Shen would never be overbearingly aggressive, so he must have held back just now. Otherwise, I would not have lost only 30 to 50 years of my lifespan.

He should be able to easily reduce one’s lifespan by hundreds of years with one strike and even be able to turn one’s hair grey.

At that thought, Qi Shaoxuan exclaimed wholeheartedly, “As expected of you!

“Brother Shen’s sword technique is pure and flawless, showing no trace of effort. You’re like an ethereal sword deity who has descended onto the earth.

“It even contains the laws of life. It can actually shave away the enemies’ life essence and reduce one’s lifespan greatly. It’s really mysterious.”

As he spoke, Qi Shaoxuan looked toward the Black Tortoise Stone Tablet at the side silently and felt that he ought to study the tablet more.

Although the appearance of this mystic art was just so so, it was quite useful. Thus, it was worth learning.

At least, he would be able to receive a few of Brother Shen’s blows in the future.

At that moment, w.a.n.g Shenxu’s tragic scream resounded.

“F*ck! Why did my lifespan decrease again?”

Everyone turned to look at him. They saw that w.a.n.g Shenxu’s hair was as white as snow, and he had deep dark circles, his eyes dull and lifeless.

More importantly, w.a.n.g Shenxu was starting to stink. Ao Wu, who originally stood beside him, kept on pinching his nose.

...

“It’s the Heavenly Decay!” Qi Shaoxuan’s mouth twitched. “There’s little of this guy’s lifespan left. He’s about to die.”

The so-called Heavenly Decay meant that a cultivator would naturally emit “death aura” that was conflicting with the “life aura” when the cultivator was about to reach the end of their lifespan.

At the same time, its body would emit a disgusting stench that would become smellier the nearer the person was to death.

w.a.n.g Shenxu was on the brink of tears. “I’ve already left 40 years of lifespan for myself, so why would I be experiencing Heavenly Decay now!?”

That’s right, that must be it!

w.a.n.g Shenxu’s mouth twitched. He seemed to have felt that his life essence had been shaved off by quite a bit.

Is it possible that the sword aura from Brother Shen’s strike just now accidentally hit me too?

At that thought, w.a.n.g Shenxu could not help but look at Shen Tian in resentment.

I only got a few dozen more years to live, but Brother Shen, you still slashed me... You’re going too far!

Shen Tian’s EQ was high, so he understood the sorrow and grievance from w.a.n.g Shenxu’s eyes.

Shen Tian took out another bottle of Nirvana Holy Liquid and gave it to w.a.n.g Shenxu before saying, “It’s the first time I’ve used the Eternal Sword Art, so I’m not familiar with it yet.

“Brother w.a.n.g has lost too much lifespan. Dragon G.o.d Island is full of dangers, so recover some vitality first!”

w.a.n.g Shenxu’s proficiency in the Eternal Life Sutra was still low, so he could only recover three years of lifespan after 10 days of seclusion. Thirty years would take more than three months.

If they were really to wait for w.a.n.g Shenxu to learn the Black Tortoise breathing technique and restore hundreds of years of lifespan, Shen Tian would most likely even be able to form his Nascent Soul within that time.

Thus, Shen Tian could only let w.a.n.g Shenxu drink Nirvana Liquid to cope for a few days first.

“Brother Shen is indeed generous. I owe you a huge favor and will definitely repay Brother Shen greatly in the future.”

w.a.n.g Shenxu did not refuse as he was already about to die. He needed to continue restoring his life essence, or else he wouldn’t be able to do anything.

Since there were too many dangers in Chaotic Star Island, only the Great Void Sutra was w.a.n.g Shenxu’s biggest life-saving resort.

Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle!

w.a.n.g Shenxu gulped down the five liters of Nirvana Holy Liquid, and his whole body instantly shone with green light, especially his forehead. The green light soared into the sky.

In that instant, the green light blinded everyone’s eyes.

That was the purest life essence energy and was extremely effective to w.a.n.g Shenxu recovering his lifespan.

It could help him restore many years of lifespan, especially since he did not have any elixir resistance to it the first time drinking it.

...

w.a.n.g Shenxu sat down with his legs crossed and started to absorb the Nirvana Holy Liquid’s energy by circulating his cultivation technique at full speed.

While w.a.n.g Shenxu was absorbing the energy, Qi Shaoxuan took the chance to secretly run toward the Black Tortoise Tablet and sat down. He then started scanning the Black Tortoise Tablet.

Well, I only said that its postures were ugly. I did not say I wouldn’t learn it.

No one would forsake a mystic art that could restore their life essence. At most, one could hide in their room when cultivating it.

Time pa.s.sed by minutes and seconds, the green light emitted by w.a.n.g Shenxu dimmed until it completely disappeared.

“The five liters of Nirvana Holy Liquid could barely help me recover 50+ years of lifespan, but this is only the effect of the first time.”

w.a.n.g Shenxu looked at the remaining Nirvana Holy Liquid in the bottle, but he did not plan on drinking it anymore.

That was because he could sense the Nirvana Holy Liquid’s effect was decreasing, just like those precious medicines he had drunk in the past—their effects declined the more that he drank.

It was better to save the remaining Nirvana Holy Liquid for possible needs in the future!

If he really wanted to restore his lifespan, he still had to learn the Black Tortoise postures.

Once this Chaotic Star Island trial ended, he could immediately return to the Great Void Sacred Ground and enter complete seclusion. He would not come out until he had obtained greater mastery of the Eternal Life Sutra.

Well, he had to restore his lifespan completely too.

Then, he would have “mana” that he could consume in the future.

He decided that he would find Qi Shaoxuan to battle once he became proficient in the Void Funeral Send-Off!

He also wanted to fight for the t.i.tle of being the strongest prodigy!

...

Qi Shaoxuan and w.a.n.g Shenxu were having their own thoughts, but Shen Tian was staring at Qi Shaoxuan’s head and calculating the time.

They had already stayed for over 10 days in the Black Tortoise mystic realm, so only a few days were left for Qi Shaoxuan and Ao Wu’s fortuitous opportunity to appear.

Logically speaking, the Dragons should have left already right!

Well, just in case, Shen Tian decided to go out to take a look first.

“Everyone, please stay here and rest for a few days while I go out to check the situation.”

After informing Qi Shaoxuan and the others, Shen Tian concealed his presence and flew out of the Black Tortoise mystic realm himself.

Once he was out of the mystic realm, Shen Tian’s mouth twitched instantly.

He had suddenly discovered that numerous Dragons were wandering around the Dark Venomous Dragon’s swamp. It was obvious that they were not there by chance.

Why would they wander to such a place?

The Dark Venomous Dragon that Shen Tian had thrashed was also amongst those Dragons.

It was now looking at its swamp with bitterness and fear.

d.a.m.ned human! Not only did he steal the treasures of so many Dragons and Drakes, but he even dared to forcibly occupy my warm and comfortable swamp!

He even beat me up until my teeth were knocked out.

My beautiful fangs are gone, they’re gone!

The Dark Venomous Dragon became angrier the more it thought about it, and as it continued thinking, it became even more enraged. It could not resist but roar toward the sky.

However, just as it started to roar, it instantly turned into a whimper—it saw that man!

A brilliant golden figure appeared before the Dark Venomous Dragon. Shen Tian did not hide or conceal his aura at all, so he shone brightly like the sun.

“Woo! Woooo! Woooooo!”

The Dark Venomous Dragon jumped with fright and ran away toward the opposite direction at full speed.

It was as if it was afraid of being beaten up again if it was too slow in escaping.

How about a Dragon’s pride?

It’s non-existent! It did not want to be beaten into a dragon meatball.

...

The reason Shen Tian did not conceal his presence anymore was to lead those Dragons away.

Naturally, Shen Tian could escape easily, but Qi Shaoxuan and the others would be screwed.

Even in his prime condition, Qi Shaoxuan might not be able to escape if so many Dragons surrounded him.

Not to mention Ao Wu and w.a.n.g Shenxu, the former was just a baby Dragon that had yet to even reach the Nirvana stage, so how could they fight with Heavenly Venerable-level Dragons?

Also, w.a.n.g Shenxu was so weak his legs would give way when walking, not to mention battling.

If those Dragons really surrounded him, w.a.n.g Shenxu would only have two choices—die of old age or be killed.

“Sigh... It’s all for your sake.”

On the one hand, was his concern for his sheep, and on the other hand, was his care for them. It was just like fatherly love.

In the end, Shen Tian decided to risk his life to lure those Dragons away personally, though it was not that life-threatening.

Shen Tian took treasures out of his storage ring one after the other, and they floated in the air, emitting a unique aura.

Shen Tian could instantly sense wild and blazing hot gazes on him.

Those looks were full of aggressiveness; those were primitive desires.

Shen Tian knew that those Dragons wanted to tear him apart and take back their treasures.

“Hehehe, come and bite me if you can!”

He then stored all the treasures into his storage ring, and his pair of divine golden wings spread behind him.

Huff!

The Kun Peng avatar appeared behind Shen Tian, and with a flap of his golden divine wings, Shen Tian instantly disappeared into thin air.

Shen Tian left behind a ray of golden light as he flew hundreds of thousands of miles away in that instant. He was so fast that he practically could not be seen clearly.

Roar!

Roar!

Roar!

Woo!

...

Upon seeing that despicable human taunting them, those Dragons couldn’t resist!

All kinds of Dragons roared toward the sky and chased Shen Tian.

There was no lack of peak Soul Formation-level Dragons, and their speed was even comparable to Shen Tian. Since Shen Tian was just a weak Golden Body cultivator, the difference in cultivation levels was just too obvious.

Fortunately, Shen Tian’s advantages were also very obvious—he had almost no flaws. He had all travel methods: the sea, the land, the sky, and underground.

You wanna surround me in the sky? Then I’ll run on the ground! At worst, I can just go underground!

Once I conceal my presence, no one can find me!

Shen Tian was that ruthless and shameless!

Such a crazy chase continued for three days. Not only were the Dragons unable to threaten Shen Tian at all, but he also stole their treasures during the chaos.

In the end, all Dragons were forced to cease chasing him and return to their lairs. They were unable to catch Shen Tian, nor would they be able to beat him in fighting. In addition, he was able to turn “invisible” at any time.

So how could they hunt him down?

It was simply impossible!

Now, the Dragons could only pray for Shen Tian to leave Dragon G.o.d Island as soon as possible.

In this way, peace would return.

Shen Tian was quite hyped up in the past three days. His Kun Peng Dao had also improved greatly from being chased by Soul Formation-level Dragons.

Currently, he could really be like a true Kun Peng when he activated the Immortal Metal with Kun Peng Dao. He was so fast that even Heavenly Venerable would shudder at his speed.

A man needs to be fast!

Shen Tian carried out those words to the extreme!

Of course, it was not as if Shen Tian had not encountered any crisis. He had unconsciously gotten close to Dragon G.o.d Island’s core area in those three days.

At that moment, he had truly felt the real threat of death.

Dragon claws that were tens of thousands of feet long directly stretched out from the sky and almost completely covered the whole sky.

Shen Tian had felt that he was as weak as an ant in front of this dragon claw. He might have died if he had not burrowed underground quickly and immediately concealed his presence.

That had made Shen Tian start to be in awe of Dragon G.o.d Island.

This seemingly isolated island was not as simple as he thought.

...

Do the Sage-level Dragons that stay within the core area have high intelligence? If so, why would they stay in the deepest region all the time and not leave?

Are they guarding something?

Or are they confined by some forbidden existence?

Tsss, what a terrifying thought!
