I Am Really Not The Son of Providence-Chapter 468: Copper Sparrow Pavilion, Prodigy Arena!

Kuduo and Chen Zhongtian looked at the two perfectly round Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills in Shen Tian’s hands that emitted an alluring fragrance.

This was a Thearch pill. Its value was immeasurable. Even an Immortal artifact could not exchange for it.

After all, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was unique. Only Shen Tian had it, and no one else could refine it.

However, due to their pride, Chen Zhongtian and Kuduo found it hard to accept the pill from Shen Tian.

...

A faint smile appeared on Shen Tian’s face upon seeing their refusal. “Brothers, please don’t stand on the ceremony!

“Now that the great calamity is upon us, if your strength can increase, not only can we increase our chances of survival, but we can also better contribute to the five regions.

“This is my kind intention. Please don’t reject it.”

Shen Tian had his own plans for giving the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to the two of them.

The Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground had always had a good relationship with the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground. They were allies.

Furthermore, Kuduo and Fang Chang were good friends and had a close relationship.

In addition, the Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground had a deep foundation and many experts. It was also one of the most powerful factions in Eastern Wilderness.

Gifting the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to Kuduo would greatly improve the relationship between the two factions.

Now that they were facing the five regions’ calamity, the two forces could become more harmonious and help each other.

...

Although Shen Tian and Chen Zhongtian had some disagreements, those were minor conflicts from their youth, so there was no need to take them to heart.

He hadn’t suffered any losses, but Chen Zhongtian had.

Moreover, Shen Tian had also obtained the first portion of the Blood God Sutra because of this.

Honestly speaking, this was all thanks to Chen Zhongtian.

The Blood God Sutra was an unparalleled legacy and was famous even in the Celestial World.

If it wasn’t for the Blood God Sutra, Shen Tian would have to be even more cautious when he was out adventuring, constantly on guard against danger and protecting his life.

If that were the case, his growth speed would not have been so fast.

The Blood God Sutra was of great aid to Shen Tian!

Now, giving the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to Chen Zhongtian could be considered a form of compensation!

Although the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was very precious in the eyes of outsiders, it was useless to Shen Tian.

This item could only be consumed once. There was no point in keeping more of it. He could only use it to give others a favorable impression.

Moreover, Shen Tian still had a large handful of Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills in his pocket. He didn’t lack any at all. He might as well use it to make friends with some Children of Providence and improve their strength.

At this moment of crisis, the more friends one had, the better. The stronger one was, the better!

...

Kuduo and Chen Zhongtian’s bodies shook violently, their eyes filled with gratitude.

Kuduo bowed respectfully to Shen Tian and said, “Brother Shen’s broad-mindedness is admirable. Since that’s the case, I won’t stand on ceremony then. Thank you, Brother Shen!”

If it was an ordinary item, he would not care so much.

After all, Kuduo had been studying Buddhism for decades and was knowledgeable.

However, something like the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was too precious!

To be honest, Kudo was indeed tempted.

He sighed inwardly.

I initially wanted to refuse, but Brother Shen’s gift is just too precious! I just can’t reject it!

Tears welled up in Chen Zhong Tian’s eyes as he said gratefully, “Brother Shen, I can’t thank you enough.

“If you need me in the future, just tell me. I will do anything for you!”

Chen Zhongtian was thrilled.

If he were to consume the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, he would definitely be able to recover the cultivation he had lost during that period.

He could even take another step forward and enter the ranks of the peak prodigies.

After all, the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill’s effects were supreme.

Not only could it increase one’s strength, but it could also change one’s constitution and talent!

Chen Zhongtian was originally the fourth-ranked genius on Eastern Wilderness’ Golden Core List. His talent was extraordinary.

If he took the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, his strength would definitely advance by leaps and bounds.

But what Chen Zhongtian cared about the most was Shen Tian’s bearing and magnanimity.

Brother Shen actually disregarded the past and gave me the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill. I feel ashamed by my own inferiority.

...

Shen Tian smiled. “Quickly consume the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill. I’ll stand guard for you guys!”

Kuduo and Chen Zhongtian nodded heavily upon hearing this.

They received the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill and immediately sat down cross-legged to refine the pill!

At that instant, endless divine light erupted from their bodies. It was brilliant and multicolored, swirling about their bodies.

Kudo’s body was surrounded by golden light. The holy and majestic Buddhist aura illuminated the world.

Behind him, a 100,000-foot Buddha golden body appeared.

The Buddha was resplendent in gold and jade, and his aura was imposing as if he wanted to suppress the universe.

Thanks to the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, the Buddha Golden Body’s radiance became more and more dazzling, resplendent like a great sun, illuminating heaven and earth.

A solemn and dignified Buddhist power burst forth, sweeping out in all directions.

At that moment, Kuduo was like a supreme Buddhist mighty figure.

His holy Buddhist intent seemed to be able to cleanse all living beings and purify all evil in the world.

Rumble!

Tribulation clouds appeared in the sky. Lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled, the echoes resounding.

Kuduo had already reached the edge of breaking through, wishing to cross the Heavenly Tribulation.

Boom!

He rushed into the heavens, entered the nine heavens’ clouds, and fought against the lightning tribulation.

The tribulation clouds were deep and dark, and they flickered with dark light, causing heaven and earth to dim down in comparison.

However, the holy golden light from his avatar did not stop. It blotted out the sky and covered the earth, forcefully engulfing the black light.

Everyone looked over and saw a golden Buddha appear in the sky, using its supreme power to resist the Heavenly Tribulation.

The Heavenly Tribulation’s might was terrifying. Its strike could easily kill a Sage.

However, under the golden Buddha’s attacks, it became extremely vulnerable.

The Buddha smashed apart the endless tribulation lightning with a wave of his hand. Heaven and earth trembled, and space seemed to collapse.

Kuduo seemed to have transformed into a Buddhist deity. His expression remained calm and unchanged. He passed two consecutive strikes of tribulation lightning with a smile.

Before long, Kuduo floated down and stood in front of everyone.

His entire body was wreathed in divine light, and his flesh had become crystalline and translucent. Golden light flickered on the surface of his body, and his body contained boundless divine might.

The aura within his body was boundless and powerful.

Kuduo had successfully broken through from a Three Tribulation Sage to a Five Tribulation True Sage. His cultivation had increased exponentially!

“Amitabha. Thank you, Brother Shen.

“As expected of a pill that can change one’s fate, its effects are indeed formidable.

“Buddha is merciful. May Buddha protect Brother Shen!”

Kuduo’s expression was solemn as if he was an accomplished monk who had attained the Dao, expounding on the supreme principles of Buddhism.

But soon, he could not hold it in any longer. He changed back to his old self and shouted, “Amitabha, I can’t hold it in any longer. This feeling of forcefully acting is too unbearable!”

Kuduo had completely revealed his true nature, returning to his previous straightforward self.

The crowd, “...”

Everyone was used to it. Amongst the Eastern Wilderness geniuses, the one who had the least change was Kuduo.

This fellow was a simple-minded fellow.

Back then, if it weren’t for Sonic Thunder Buddhist Lord holding the monk staff against Kuduo’s forehead and forcing him to take the Buddhist Lord position, who knew where this guy would have run off to?

Kuduo acted so seriously because the previous Sonic Thunder Buddhist Lord forced him.

But in front of so many old friends, he finally couldn’t help but reveal his true self.

“Now that my strength has greatly increased, I wonder which fellow is willing to spar with me?”

Kuduo raised his eyebrows and looked around the group, his fighting spirit soaring.

As soon as his cultivation base broke through, his heart began to swell.

Not only had his cultivation reached the Five Tribulation True Sage level, but he had also successfully cultivated the Great Vajra Body.

His tough body was like an indestructible divine metal now.

Even a Seven Tribulation True Sage would find it very difficult to break through his defense.

After his strength increased greatly, Kuduo began to feel that his hands itched again and wanted to find someone to fight.

Seeing this scene, everyone was speechless.

Even after this bald monk had become the Buddhist Lord, he had still yet to change his personality!

...

Meanwhile, Chen Zhongtian also underwent a transformation, and dazzling starlight burst forth from his body.

Endless starlight interweaved and coiled, forming dazzling stars that emanated boundless divine light.

There were a total of seven stars. The light lingered around them, dazzling to the extreme.

They were connected together and formed the Big Dipper, exuding a vast aura.

Under the contrast of the Big Dipper constellation, Chen Zhongtian looked like a God of Stars descending to the mortal world with an extraordinary aura.

Moreover, as he continuously refined the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill’s power, his aura became more and more powerful, as if great waves of Spirit Qi would pour out of him!

Rumble!

Thunder rumbled, and lightning danced.

Chen Zhongtian’s lightning tribulation descended with boundless might.

“Fight!”

He let out a long howl and charged into the tribulation clouds, battling the lightning tribulation!

Bang, bang, bang!

Endless rumbles came from the sky, causing heaven and earth to shake and lightning to explode.

The Seven Stars of the Big Dipper shone brightly and activated countless laws.

It was as if the Milky Way descended, piercing through the dark tribulation clouds and causing the world to produce endless starlight.

Lightning surged, and starlight burst forth, creating an extremely dazzling scene.

In the end, Chen Zhongtian slowly descended. His body was surrounded by tribulation lightning, and his breathing was slightly heavy.

Compared to everyone else, Chen Zhongtian’s battle prowess and talent were slightly inferior.

However, with the support of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, he had also overcome two levels of lightning tribulation. His cultivation had also broken through from the One Tribulation Sage level Realm to the Three Tribulation Sage level.

Moreover, there was still a large portion of the medicinal power in Chen Zhongtian’s body that had yet to be refined.

After completely refining it, he could probably break through and become a True Sage.

Chen Zhongtian’s face lit up with excitement, and he immediately expressed his gratitude. “Thank you, Brother Shen!”

From now on, he had once again stepped into the ranks of the elite prodigies.

Although he still couldn’t compare to Qi Shaoxuan and the others, he wasn’t too far away. Thus, Chen Zhongtian’s gratitude toward Shen Tian was like a surging river that flowed endlessly.

...

Shen Tian nodded slightly. “Since everyone has successfully broken through, let’s go back first!”

Although they had not successfully rescued the five regions’ cultivators, they had killed the Hell Protector King and many other powerful Evil Spirits!

There was even a Sub-Immortal Evil Spirit buried here.

This could be considered revenge for those kidnapped.

However, everyone knew that this was far from enough.

The Evil Spirits from the outer realm were extremely powerful and had a large population. They were far more powerful than this.

Killing the Hell Protector King and the Sub-Immortal Evil Spirit would at most cause the Evil Spirit race to feel a moment of pain, but it was not enough to harm their foundation.

In order to deal with the invasion of the Evil Spirits from the outer realm, they needed to discuss more and find a solution.

Everyone nodded and asked, “Brother Shen, are you returning to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?”

Shen Tian shook his head. “Let’s return to Jixia Academy first!”

Although he had not returned to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground for 180 years, he was in no hurry to return. After all, the sacred ground still had the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Azure Lotus, these two peak powerhouses.

With the God of War Pagoda and Ye Qincang’s remnant soul, there was no need to worry about the Evil Spirits invading the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

Furthermore, he had some matters to attend to at Jixia Academy.

Previously, when Huang Shi had given him the Immortal Peach Herb, he had asked for a Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

However, Shen Tian had important matters to attend to at that time and hadn’t had time.

After which, he had entered seclusion for 180 years because he had entered the Spherical Heaven Chessboard.

After dragging it out for so long, it was true that he could not delay any longer.

Thus, Shen Tian planned to deliver the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to Huang Shi as soon as possible.

Such a supreme pill was similarly effective to experts at the level of Huang Shi.

The current situation was extremely bad for the five regions.

As the strongest existence in the five regions, if Huang Shi’s cultivation level could improve, he would better protect the five regions.

...

When they heard Shen Tian’s words, the Eastern Wilderness geniuses replied, “Then we’ll go with Brother Shen.”

“Yeah! We haven’t been back to the academy for a long time!”

“Let’s have a good gathering when we get back this time.”

They were all Jixia Academy students. Due to the eruption of the great calamity, they had all rushed back to protect their sacred grounds.

As such, it had been almost a century since they had returned to Jixia Academy.

It was a good opportunity to go back and take a look.

Most importantly, they wanted to follow Shen Tian.

After all, Shen Tian was publicly acknowledged as the Son of Providence. Following him was definitely not wrong!

Shen Tian nodded with a smile. “Alright, let’s go back together!”

After everyone made some preparations, they set off together toward Jixia Academy.

Great Wilderness...

This region was not only the head of the nine prefectures in Middle Ground, but it was also the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s headquarters.

The situation here was different from other places in the five regions.

The surroundings were enshrouded with dense mist and were filled with vitality. There wasn’t a trace of disorder in the surroundings.

It could be said that the Great Wilderness Region was one of the few places in the five regions that Evil Spirits had not invaded.

After all, the Evil Spirit Sect did not have the guts and strength to launch an all-out attack against the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty.

Shen Tian and the others quickly arrived at the Great Wilderness Region’s Sky Saint City.

This place was prosperous and peaceful. There was a sea of people, and it was extraordinarily bustling.

Many cultivators of the five regions got along harmoniously.

Due to the arrival of the great calamity, the various regions had fallen into war disputes. Every day, they were on tenterhooks, and the atmosphere was incomparably tense.

Therefore, when they entered Sky Saint City, everyone’s tense faces gradually relaxed.

Wang Shenxu suggested, “Brother Shen, why don’t we go to the Copper Sparrow Pavilion? It can also be considered as a welcoming reception for you and celebrating your safe return.”

Copper Sparrow Pavilion was a place of memories.

The first gathering they had before joining Jixia Academy was at Copper Sparrow Pavilion. This place held everyone’s memories from 180 years ago.

Shen Tian nodded. He also wanted to take a look at Copper Sparrow Pavilion again.

Since they were already in Sky Saint City, there was no hurry to find Huang Shi.

After being in seclusion for 180 years, Shen Tian also wanted to see the changes in the outside world.

...

They walked toward Copper Sparrow Pavilion together.

Everyone laughed as they walked, discussing the past event that had happened here, where they had fought a great battle against the Middle Ground prodigies.

“Did you know? Back when we were here, we fought hundreds of prodigies from Middle Ground, and all of them were previous Saints of their respective sacred grounds too!

“Haha, we were all new students, yet we still beat those senior students until they pissed in their pants.”

Kuduo’s face was full of excitement as he told the others about his past deeds.

At that moment, Wang Shenxu scratched his head and said, “Baldie, this doesn’t seem to have anything to do with you. I remember that you had a match back then. You were beaten until your head was full of bumps, and your horns were outstanding!”

Wang Shenxu clearly remembered that their generation had suffered many losses during the battle with the Middle Ground prodigies.

And he had been utterly defeated and humiliated.

Wang Shenxu stared at Kuduo in confusion.

Why? How could this bald monk brag about something so embarrassing?

Kuduo, “???”

“Cough, cough. Benefactor, this poor monk doesn’t know what you are talking about!

“But why are you slandering this monk?

“Do you want to spar with me?

“I think you want to spar with me!

“Since that’s the case, let’s go and spar!”

Kuduo’s eyes were bright as he stared at Wang Shenxu and mumbled non-stop.

Wang Shenxu’s face was black as he rolled his eyes.

Damn it! You only know how to bully me now. When I recover a few hundred years of my lifespan, I’ll kill you, bald donkey!

...

Of course, Wang Shenxu wouldn’t say this out loud.

After all, he would be beaten up if he said it.

Given his current state, it could be said that he could not beat anyone!

Seeing this scene, everyone shook their heads and laughed.

The others were also discussing the interesting events of the past, making the atmosphere harmonious.

The way they behaved was rather reminiscent of the brotherhood between young men who went on an adventure together.

However, after 180 years, many things had changed.

Some people and some things had already been completely obliterated in this world.

Thinking of this, everyone sighed.

Shen Tian, on the other hand, didn’t feel much because he had been in seclusion for 180 years.

Moreover, in the Spherical Heaven Chessboard, Shen Tian had also become one with the world, his mind becoming distant from the physical world.

Time flies...

180 years was like a blink of an eye to him.

Thus, Shen Tian was still young at the moment and wasn’t as emotional as everyone else.

“Alright, alright. Let’s go in and sit. Let’s drink and chat today to celebrate Junior Brother’s safe return.”

Fang Chang suggested, preparing to enter the Golden Phoenix room.

...

Bam, bam, bam!

At that moment, a commotion came from downstairs.

The noise was intense, carrying waves of rumbling Dao laws, shaking heaven and earth.

“Just what happened?”

Everyone was curious and looked over. Below the Copper Sparrow Pavilion, a huge arena had appeared.

The arena was densely covered in inscriptions and coiled with laws, emitting a powerful aura.

This was created by top-tier experts, and no one below the Sage level could break it.

On the arena, a group of young geniuses was sparring with each other.

The sound just now was triggered by the geniuses sparring in the arena.

Shen Tian smiled when he saw this. “Why is there an extra arena inside the Copper Sparrow Pavilion?”

They did not have these things 180 years ago!

Qi Shaoxuan smiled and said, “Brother Shen, back then, we became friends with the Middle Ground prodigies and turned hostility into friendship, leaving behind a beautiful legacy.

“Later on, Shi Ling, Shi Kui, and the various paragons proposed to establish the Prodigy Arena in the Copper Sparrow Pavilion.

“Every time Jixia Academy’s recruitment season comes, the prodigies are encouraged to spar with one another.

“The geniuses below are all new students of this generation.”

Shen Tian was surprised. “Doesn’t Jixia Academy recruit students only every 100 years? Based on the time, there should still be 20 years left!”

Zhang Yunting explained, “After the invasion of the Evil Spirits from the outer realm, the recruitment of students at Jixia Academy changed from 100 to 30 years.

“The recruitment period for the various sacred grounds has also started to shorten. This is in order to nurture experts as soon as possible, to resist the Evil Spirits from the outer realm.

“Therefore, the paragons of the past few generations have all grown extremely quickly, far beyond the generations before.”

Zhang Yunting smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was overwhelmed with emotions.

...

Fortunately, we started our cultivation early and had the assistance of Junior Brother’s Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

If I was born a few generations later, I might not be considered a paragon anymore.

Now, these little fellows are more abnormal than the last!
