I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 217: Do You Think I Can't See Your Halo?

Chapter 217: Do You Think I Can’t See Your Halo?

“Everyone, step to the side. Be mindful of your own safety.”

Shen Tian studied the Blood Demon standing before him with a grave expression. The Five Heavenly Lightning Beast Armor slowly formed around him.

Shen Tian was not going to underestimate this Nascent Soul Blood Demon. He was going to fully brace himself to fight it. After all, amongst all the opponents Shen Tian had ever faced on his own, this Blood Demon was the most powerful!

Especially since this Blood Demon didn’t die even after its head had been lopped off, his chest and abdomen split open. Instead, it rebounded very quickly.

It would be very difficult to handle such a tenacious lifeforce in a life-and-death battle.

Whoos.h.!.+

Oh my goodness!

After the Blood Demon reconnected its severed head, it looked even angrier and malicious than before. It gazed at Shen Tian and his Jade Water Sword, its blood-colored armor glistening with a cold light.

It swung its ma.s.sive fists toward Shen Tian. One could feel the powerful air current generated by those fists even before they got anywhere close.

It was obvious that even the largest mountains would crumble under the impact of those fists.

Of course, Shen Tian would never be such an easy target. After all, this was a powerful Nascent Soul monster. It was definitely not your normal creature!

The Five Heavenly Lightning Beast Armor activated, and Shen Tian dodged the Blood Demon’s heavy fists, leaving behind just a faint afterimage.

At the same time, his Jade Water Sword glowed as it chopped down on the Blood Demon’s wrist.

He was met with a resistance that was even stronger than the previous sneak attack. But under Shen Tian’s blood-red sword, the Blood Demon’s wrist was still forcibly hacked into two.

Stinking blood gushed out as the Blood Demon cried in pain. It staggered backward, clearly beaten down.

But Shen Tian saw that the Blood Demon’s dismembered hand quickly melted into a pool of blood before gus.h.i.+ng back toward the demon’s main body.

Within seconds, the dismembered hand was once again reattached to the demon’s wrist, with nary a single scar. It was like it had never been injured.

...

“Shen Tian, don’t you have any attacking strategy before coming onto the battlefield? This kind of Nascent Soul level Blood Demon has an immortal body. You can kill it only by stabbing its heart!”

Jin Yu was screaming at Shen Tien. Upon the Blood Demon’s still-injured chest, Jin Yu was bound by several blood strings, which were pulling him back toward the demon’s abdomen.

The corners of Shen Tian’s lips twitched as he shot Jin Yu a look. “Of course I know that!

“Don’t worry! I know what I am doing. I am just looking for the right opportunity. Stay calm!

Calm!? How to stay calm!?

Jin Yu was nearly in tears.

So smelly!

This monster wants to shove me into its abdomen again!

Can’t you just finish the fight with Shen Tian first? Why must you keep shoving me in!?

He was a Great Golden-Winged Eagle with a dazzling glow all over. But how dirty and wretched he looked now!

Jin Yu was helpless as the Blood Demon continued to shove him back into its abdomen. But suddenly, Jin Yu could detect that the blood strings felt somewhat weaker.

Shen Tian had launched a new attack!

His armor erupted in brilliant red light as phoenix feathers drifted about.

Shen Tian’s speed increased greatly as his blood-red sword burst into powerful flames. It was the dazzling Nan Ming Li Fire!

In the shadows, Hei Yuan’s eyes burned.

“That’s the Exceptional Fire List-ranked Nan Ming Li Fire!

“Very good. No wonder he is the Divine Firmament Saint. He is indeed someone with great providence!

“A pity that after today, this exceptional fire will belong to me!”

The token in Hei Yuan’s hand flashed. The Blood Demon’s aura surged and a bone armor formed over its chest. It was clear that this bone armor was extremely strong and able to withstand the most powerful cultivators’ most intense attacks.

The distance between the sword and the Blood Demon was quickly narrowing. A collision was imminent.

The Blood Demon raised one palm and smacked it toward Shen Tian.

In the next moment, Shen Tian suddenly turned the sharp point of his sword around and hacked down at the blood strings on the demon’s abdomen.

Slas.h.!.+

The blood strings broke, and Jin Yu fell to the ground.

A gold armor and golden saber also fell by his side.

An incredulous expression crossed Jin Yu’s face as he gazed at the armor and saber. “Shen Tian, you—”

Shen Tian’s voice echoed from the skies. “Jin Yu, I am lending you this armor and saber for the time being. Leave now with my Junior Brothers!”

Jin Yu, “???”

You are lending them to me for the time being? d.a.m.n you!

Now that I have gotten these treasures back, will I allow you to take them away again?

Jin Yu activated his divine consciousness, and the golden armor was suddenly on his body, dazzling and magnificent.

With the golden saber in his hand, he shot toward the Blood Demon. “I am not your subordinate! You can’t order me around!

“This disgusting beast. Now that I have my saber, my battle prowess is back in full form. I must slash this revolting creature to shreds!”

Jin Yu still looked rather wretched, but his fighting spirit had been ignited as he charged red-eyed at the Blood Demon. Shen Tian wiped his sweat in exasperation.

“In that case, why don’t you hold this demon back first while I lead my brothers away?”

With that, Shen Tian kept his sword and took a step back.

Without the powerful sword aura suppressing it, the Blood Demon’s attacks suddenly became stronger.

Jin Yu’s expression instantly changed as the violent attacks forced him into a corner. He couldn’t help lamenting on the inside.

Can you please do your part as per scripted? Now that I have recovered my battle prowess, shouldn’t we be joining hands to destroy this demon?

Given Shen Tian’s fighting abilities and Jin Yu’s full support, it was entirely within their means to destroy this Blood Demon.

Bringing your Junior Brothers away at such a critical point—what kind of move was that?

“Don’t! Brother... Brother Shen, please help me!”

As the attacks became increasingly aggressive, Jin Yu felt like he was being forced to his breaking point. He could barely hold it together anymore.

Jin Yu’s fighting spirit ebbed when he saw those blood strings coming for him relentlessly. He now had a phobia of being bound.

“Eh, so troublesome!”

Shen Tian sighed in resignation before turning to his Junior Brothers. “In that case, you guys leave the valley first!”

With that, Shen Tian rejoined the battle fray with the Jade Water Sword in hand. He plunged it straight toward the Blood Demon’s bone armor on its chest.

The Blood Demon was once again being forced back, unable to get close to the other disciples.

Meanwhile, Zhang San and the rest didn’t remain standing there like fools. They turned to flee. After all, with their weak powers, they would just be a burden if they stayed behind.

Hei Yuan was still hidden inside the shadows, and a cold smile spread across his face. “Trying to escape? Dream on!”

With that, Hei Yuan quickly formed some hand seals. Several blood-red points lit up and flashed continuously on the token.

Suddenly, heavy footsteps echoed from both ends of the Blood Demon Valley. Ma.s.sive Blood Demons appeared. These demons were as powerful as the one Shen Tian and Jin Yu were battling now. And there were four of them!

Together with the one Shen Tian was entangled with, there were a total of five Blood Demons now. They were out in full force on the battlefield!

The disciples’ faces were filled with despair as those four Blood Demons closed in from both ends.

Is there still a G.o.d in heaven?

Weren’t there supposed to be no Nascent Soul creatures in the Primordial Battlefield?

Now, there are a total of five Blood Demons in the valley.

Had they chosen the wrong mode before entering the battlefield?

...

Jin Yu was also dumbstruck.

He had originally wanted to ride on Shen Tian’s coattails and gleefully pulverize this Blood Demon.

After all, what else in this world could make this bird happier than outnumbering a foe?

But the circ.u.mstances had changed!

This Blood Demon’s siblings had also joined the fight.

A grand total of five Blood Demons! Five against two, with every single demon at a higher level than them.

As mighty as Shen Tian might be, he couldn’t possibly win against five Nascent Soul level Blood Demons, right? It was impossible!

“I thought there were only two. But there are actually five! Unbelievable!

“What a joke. And I am actually going to fight alongside you!”

Jin Yu smirked. “Compared to being shoved into the abdomen of that disgusting creature, I would rather die in battle!”

Golden flames erupted throughout his body. He had been in weak condition but suddenly underwent a total recovery to peak form. He was now even stronger than before!

Jin Yu glanced sideways at Shen Tian. He said in a proud voice, “Shen Tian, looks like you won’t be able to collect this IOU now! Let’s go! Hahahaha!”

With a holler, Jin Yu’s golden saber dazzled brightly.

A ma.s.sive and terrifying blade aura radiated from the saber. “Golden Wings’ Nine Slash, The Second Slash—Slash Through Empty Air!”

The blade aura burst out of the saber, slicing right through the air. It was ultra-sharp, spreading across the sky and flas.h.i.+ng with a golden light!

Jin Yu was covered in divine flames, as the blade landed heavily on the Blood Demon’s bone armor.

Crack!

Cracks appeared on the golden saber. Jin Yu had forcibly squeezed every bit of power from the saber, causing damage to the blade.

But Jin Yu had poured in his utmost battle efforts into this one strike, which managed to split open the Blood Demon’s bone armor, revealing its heart.

Now was the time!

Shen Tian’s gaze hardened as he struck out with his sword!

It was like a sudden parting of the storm clouds. Like the first rays of the sun piercing through the night sky. The blade moved at sonic speeds.

Swoos.h.!.+

Spat!

The Jade Water Sword pierced straight through the Blood Demon’s ma.s.sive body. It was like a silver needle poking a hole in a huge balloon. It looked insignificant, but the results were fatal.

The sword had completely penetrated its heart, and one of its Blood Essence Pearls had been carved out. This one blow instantly negated its battle prowess and healing abilities.

The giant body collapsed to the floor, spilling countless Blood Essence Pearls onto the ground.

At this moment, the floor of the Blood Demon Valley turned an even deeper shade of red!

“Not bad! You are indeed my worthy opponent!”

Jin Yu fell to the ground, his face pale. Relying entirely on the golden saber, he managed to prop himself back to a standing position.

Shen Tian glanced at Jin Yu, and a pained look crossed his face.

He said in exasperation, “This saber is mine. I am only lending it to you temporarily. Please take care of it. It’s nearly broken in two!”

Jin Yu, “???”

Jin Yu, “!!!”

Jin Yu cursed and swore inwardly.

Fine!

Shen Tian, you win!

We just fought alongside each other.

But you want to nag at me about this saber? Are you that heartless?

But before Jin Yu could lash out, the four new Blood Demons had already stepped in front of them.

A blood-red pattern had surfaced on their skins. The deep red color seemed to engulf the entire valley, making everyone feel rather trapped.

The four Blood Demons charged toward Shen Tian.

Shen Tian ground his teeth. Multiple sword auras suddenly shot out of his Jade Water Sword, heading straight toward one of the demons.

His Purple Golden Hammer suddenly appeared in his hands. Mixed Divine Lightning gathered around it, after which it suddenly enlarged to several hundreds of yards long.

“Go to h.e.l.l!”

Shen Tian hollered, and dazzling lightning bolts shot out of the Purple Golden Hammer, clas.h.i.+ng right into the second Blood Demon’s fists.

Boom!

The sound of thunder was deafening.

Golden lightning spread across the entire valley.

The fist of that gargantuan Blood Demon was enough to split open a whole mountain, but the demon had to stagger backward due to the Purple Golden Hammer’s impact.

At that moment, Shen Tian was really like the G.o.d of Lightning descended on earth—mighty and peerless!

Just as he was forcing back one of the Blood Demons, two others had already launched a simultaneous attack.

Huge blood-red palms appeared, bringing with them tremendous g-forces. Shen Tian was completely engulfed!

Smack!

A terrible pressure, as heavy as a gigantic mountain, suddenly came down upon him.

No, it was more like being squeezed in between two gigantic mountains!

“Go to h.e.l.l!”

Blood trickled down the corners of Shen Tian’s mouth. His hair turned a golden color as the Purple Golden Hammer enlarged again to force those palms apart.

“Get lost!”

The Purple Golden Hammer was covered in a silver liquid. Shen Tian’s arms glowed golden as he struck the chest of the third Blood Demon with a vicious blow.

Boom!

Smelly blood was charred black by lightning, and the ma.s.sive Blood Demon was sent flying over a hundred meters by Shen Tian’s strike. It landed heavily upon a cliff.

But right at that moment, the fists of the fourth Blood Demon had already landed.

Shen Tian was unable to block it, and he was smashed straight into the ground.

Boom~!

A huge hole appeared in the ground as dust flew up all around.

The Blood Demon was merciless. It attacked Shen Tian relentlessly with fists as big as Ultraman’s.

Boom!

Boom, boom!

Boom, boom, boom!

...

The entire valley shook as if there was an earthquake.

Everyone gazed worriedly in Shen Tian’s direction. They were all extremely anxious and fretful.

It was just too tragic to be attacked by several Nascent Soul Blood Demons when one’s abilities had been suppressed down to the Foundation Establishment stage!

Hei Yuan couldn’t help swallowing hard in the darkness when he saw the bone armor shatter and the Blood Demon’s heart exposed.

The mighty force of the hammer was just mind-blowing!

And at the mere Foundation Establishment stage. Unbelievable! How could there be such a prodigy!

He sighed. What a terrifying fellow. Is he even human?

Such a fearsome monster was about to die in his hands today. It was a rather pleasant thought!

Hei Yuan smiled as he gazed at the despondent faces of the crowd.

The final curtain was coming down on this battle, and he had emerged the eventual winner!

...

Suddenly, there was a huge tremor in the blood-red valley.

Following that, a Rainbow Divine Light suddenly emerged in the battlefield.

It was a lady dressed in a multi-colored outfit and holding a Divine Light fan. She exuded a powerful aura.

Waving the fan in her hands, Rainbow Divine Light shot out toward the Blood Demon and sent it flying off.

The Divine Light flashed again and a mangled body was retrieved from the hole. It was already lifeless.

Kong Meng’s expression was ice-cold and murderous. “Filthy beast, how dare you!”

Engulfed in her Rainbow Divine Light, Kong Meng looked extremely fearsome!

Watching Kong Meng from the shadows, Hei Yuan couldn’t help feeling excited.

Good! Very good!

He had just dispatched the Divine Firmament Saint, and now, this pure-blooded prodigy from the Peac.o.c.k race had come knocking on his door.

If he could capture all these people, he would be able to collect all their good providence and truly ascend onto the mighty Paragon level!

After all, whether it was the Rainbow Divine Light or Shen Tian’s Nan Ming Li Fire—they were all rare, precious items! Absolute masterpieces!

Wait a minute... Nan Ming Li Fire!

That’s not right. The Nan Ming Li Fire has not been entirely extinguished!

Hei Yuan felt a chill run down his back. He could feel that something was amiss.

Shen Tian had fallen and his Nan Ming Li Fire should have already been extinguished.

But his Jade Water Sword was still remotely battling the Blood Demon!

The sword was still engulfed in red blade aura, and the Nan Ming Li Fire was still burning brightly. He still seemed to be in control of them both.

Moreover, the aura of that mangled body was totally different from that of Shen Tian’s!

This was a battlefield and there were numerous b.l.o.o.d.y corpses strewn all over. It was not Shen Tian at all!

“Something’s off. The Divine Firmament Saint is not dead at all!”

The hair on the back of Hei Yuan’s neck stood straight up.

But before he had time to consider anything, Shen Tian’s playful voice sounded out from behind him.

“Not bad! You are pretty smart!”

Swoos.h.!.+

As he spoke, strands of jade-green vines shot out of the ground, binding all the black-clad men tightly.

Before they could do anything, those vines had burrowed their tips into their mouths.

“Move and they will suck you dry!”

Shen Tian appeared before Hei Yuan with a smile.

Glancing at the perplexed Hei Yuan, he knew that this scoundrel was now having second thoughts about life.

He had been hiding in the shadows and used his special artifact to mask over his aura. How had Shen Tian managed to detect him?

Any kind of special concealing technique was nothing to Shen Tian. Not worth a mention at all.

Did he think that he would be fine just by covering up his body and his aura? If he was that good, why doesn’t he try hiding his providence too!

Hiding in a shadowy corner and controlling those Blood Demons to attack me?

What a joke. Do you think I can’t see your halos?

The golden light on top of this scoundrel’s head had been flas.h.i.+ng non-stop. So eye-catching!

If Shen Tian hadn’t been worried that this fellow might have some hidden life-preserving treasure, and so didn’t want to scare him off too early, he would have already charged straight at him. One must always go to the root of the problem, after all...

Ahem, to defeat a gang, one must always capture the leader first!

Now that the mastermind had been captured, what could those Blood Demons do?

Shen Tian heaved a sigh of relief after tying up those six black-clad men.

“Game over!”

...

While gazing at Hei Yuan, Shen Tian said in a calm voice, “If you are smart, you will activate your token and make these Blood Demons concede.”

Hei Yuan stared at Shen Tian begrudgingly. “I don’t believe this! How did you discover me?”

Evil Spirit had remained hidden within the five regions for tens of thousands of years. Even though they were surrounded by the sacred grounds, they had never been completely weeded.

Their presence concealing and masking techniques were extremely effective, and could be touted as divine-level arts!

On top of that, Hei Yuan and his gang were on an important mission and had been equipped with powerful treasured artifacts.

Their black robes and masks also had camouflage properties.

Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator came sniffing by, it would still be very difficult for him to discover them.

But Shen Tian seemed to have uncovered their location almost immediately. He had even put up a deliberate show so that he could launch a sudden countermove.

Now, Hei Yuan’s life was in Shen Tian’s hands. He could kill him any time he wanted. Even if he had 40 or even 400 Blood Demons, it would be impossible for them to rescue him now.

Hei Yuan was feeling very aggrieved!

He had six Nascent Soul level Blood Demons inside the battlefield. Even so, he had been utterly defeated by Shen Tian.

His pride was shattered!

Shen Tian smiled at Hei Yuan’s question. “No comment.”

Hei Yuan was stunned. His confusion turned to anger. “Do you think you can save your brothers just because you have captured me? Since I am in your hands now, I am prepared to die—and I will drag all of you down to my grave with me!”

With that, Hei Yuan’s token suddenly split into pieces.

Streaks of blood-red light shot toward those remaining four Blood Demons.

As the light entered their bodies, their auras became even more violent and powerful.

Having lost all their senses, the Blood Demons were now completely controlled by their innate desires. They charged toward those disciples.

Even though Kong Meng poured all her energy into her Rainbow Divine Light, it was only enough to stop one of the Blood Demons.

The remaining three Blood Demons were now right in front of those disciples.

Meanwhile, the completely-spent Jin Yu was utterly helpless.

A crazed, malevolent smile spread across Hei Yuan’s face.

Shen Tian, let’s see what you can do! Feel the pain!
