I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 460: Shi Tianzi: I Am More Powerful Than Brother Shen!?

Chapter 460: s.h.i.+ Tianzi: I Am More Powerful Than Brother Shen!?

Immortal King Hun Tian was shocked by the power Shen Tian displayed.

He knew that Shen Tian had the Connate Const.i.tution, but even so, he didn’t expect him to be that freakishly powerful.

The profoundness and complexity of the Immortal King sutra were beyond words. It harbored the boundless concepts of the Heavenly Dao.

Even with the Connate Const.i.tution, it should be impossible to gain such a thorough understanding within such a short period.

The previous pract.i.tioner who possessed the Connate Const.i.tution also had to spend 10 years before he could cultivate the Immortal King sutra to the Greater Mastery stage.

That was already an amazing record in the Celestial World. Countless pract.i.tioners had been dumbstruck then.

To this day, no one had managed to break that record.

But now, Shen Tian managed to cultivate the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra in only three years’ time. Immortal King Hun Tian’s worldview had been turned upside down.

It looks like this kid didn’t just have the Connate Const.i.tution. He must have some other secret attributes.

No wonder ‘that’ person would impart his legacy to this kid. He is indeed freakishly powerful!

...

Noticing the appearance of Immortal King Hun Tian, Shen Tian stepped forward. “Senior, I have finished cultivating.”

Immortal King Hun Tian’s body stiffened as he pretended to be calm. “You have pretty good innate talent. Of course, you are still not as good as when I was young.”

No one knew that Immortal King Hun Tian was actually churning with shock inwardly. He was only saying those words in case Shen Tian got a big head.

Shen Tian’s achievement was mind-blowing. No one else could compare.

Even Immortal King Hun Tian himself could not achieve that even at his current age.

Of course, he would never admit that. He had to maintain his pride!

Shen Tian sighed. “Looks like my innate talent is still not good enough!”

One must have been an exceptional prodigy and be invincible in the Celestial World to have become the Immortal King.

Since Immortal King Hun Tian had said that Shen Tian was still inferior when compared to him, it meant that Shen Tian was still not as good as those exceptional prodigies in the Celestial World.

I must work harder!

...

The corners of Immortal King Hun Tian’s mouth twitched at Shen Tian’s words.

Your freakish powers are still not good enough? Can you please give some leeway to the prodigies in the Celestial World?

Immortal King Hun Tian’s face turned slightly red. “Young friend, no need to be demoralized. You are not as good as me, but you are already better than 90% of the Celestial World prodigies.

“However, this is not all there is to my Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra. There are still many major, profound concepts within.

“If you cultivate it to the maximum level, you can refine the stars in the universe and utilize their energy.

“Young friend, you need to continue cultivating and improving yourself.”

The Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra was Immortal King Hun Tian’s most powerful legacy. Even in the Celestial World, it was considered a peerless legacy and was enough to tempt countless supreme powers.

This was the Immortal King sutra, after all. It possessed boundless Dao concepts.

If one could cultivate the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra to the Greater Mastery stage, they could attract the energy of the stars to enhance themselves.

When cultivated to completion, one could have absolute control over the energy of the stars.

This was a power that belonged to the natural world. It was mighty and terrifying to the extreme.

And there was even a higher level beyond that, but no one had been able to reach that transcended level.

It was rumored that if one could cultivate to that transcended level, they could merge completely with the entire universe.

Immortal King Hun Tian was very excited to see that Shen Tian had such formidable innate talent.

Shen Tian was ‘their’ descendant, after all.

If Shen Tian could bring glory to his Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra, he would also benefit from the limelight.

This was why Immortal King Hun Tian tried to encourage Shen Tian to improve himself further.

Shen Tian was taken aback. He didn’t realize the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra had so many profound layers to it.

And it was true that he felt that he hadn’t cultivated the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra to completion yet.

The Universe Stars Map not only possessed the Heavenly Dao concepts, but it was like a whole new world, deep and profound.

The universe was so expansive. How could one possibly decipher it all within such a short period of time?

He had just deciphered the few most powerful techniques. There was still a lot to learn.

Shen Tian cupped his fists in respect. “Thank you, Senior, for your advice. I will go to cultivate now!”

Immortal King Hun Tian nodded with satisfaction. “Go on then! But no need to be too anxious. You still have a lot of time!”

He also wanted to see just how much Shen Tian could achieve!

...

Shen Tian once again settled down into cultivation mode to continue comprehending the Universe Stars Map.

Soon, he felt like he was immersed in the Universe Stars Map and in the boundless sea of stars.

The surrounding star cl.u.s.ters s.h.i.+mmered with a dazzling divine light.

Shen Tian was filled with joy at the sight. He activated his Heavenly Cycle Divine Guidance to absorb the power of the stars.

In the blink of an eye, limitless starlight descended like a heavenly waterfall.

Rays of light shot out everywhere, entering his body.

Shen Tian’s cultivation level increased thanks to the star power continuously.

His body also started to evolve, but a longer period of time was needed before the changes would be apparent!

...

49 years pa.s.sed since Shen Tian had entered into his cultivation state!

After being still and silent in cultivation for so long, s.h.i.+ Tianzi finally made some movement.

His body shuddered violently as his aura surged and churned wildly.

It looked like s.h.i.+ Tianzi was about to suffer from Qi Deviation!

“Wake up!”

A stern voice rang out like a Heavenly Dao bell, full of power and heart-stirring authority.

Splat!

s.h.i.+ Tianzi spat out fresh blood as he woke up from his stillness.

His face was pale, and his aura feeble. He had clearly been gravely injured.

It was like he had been lost in a boundless sea of stars, unable to find his way.

Qi Deviation was a terrifying thing. Even after being summoned out of it, he was still in a dazed state.

Nonetheless, s.h.i.+ Tianzi soon collected himself. Relief flashed across his eyes.

If Immortal King Hun Tian had not called him, he might have been completely lost in the galaxy of stars.

“Thank you, Senior Hun Tian!” s.h.i.+ Tianzi was very grateful.

Immortal King Hun Tian’s image appeared, and he waved. “No problem!”

“You were able to decipher the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra to this level in just 49 years’ time.

“Not bad, not bad!”

Immortal King Hun Tian was shocked. He didn’t know that he would encounter such promising prodigies this time.

He could feel that s.h.i.+ Tianzi had also managed to cultivate the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra to the Greater Mastery stage.

He was not as ridiculously powerful as Shen Tian, who managed to learn all of the peerless techniques. Nevertheless, s.h.i.+ Tianzi still managed to master the Heavenly Cycle Divine Guidance, the Heavenly Divine Fist, and part of the Heavenly Cycle Star Formation.

This was no ordinary level of talent.

...

s.h.i.+ Tianzi shook his head with a bitter smile on hearing Immortal King Hun Tian’s words. “I am too stupid. I can’t understand the final technique!”

He could feel that the Heavenly Cycle Star Formation was the most powerful technique.

No matter how he tried, he could not cross the final barrier of understanding.

s.h.i.+ Tianzi had a lot of pride and never backed down from a challenge. Thus, he had tried to force his way through.

The more anxious one was, the easier it was to make mistakes.

He had nearly gotten lost in the boundless universe and almost suffered Qi Deviation.

Immortal King Hun Tian shook his head. “No worries, everything is destined.

“Since you were unable to decipher it, it means that you are not fated.

“If you try to force it, you might end up losing more than you gained.”

s.h.i.+ Tianzi shuddered as a strange light flashed across his eyes.

Immortal King Hun Tian’s words echoed endlessly in his mind as his state of mind underwent a gradual evolution.

Understanding soon dawned upon s.h.i.+ Tianzi, and he let go of the knot in his heart.

He cupped his hands in respect. “Thank you, Senior, for your guidance. I understand now.”

Even though he was unable to understand that technique, he was still s.h.i.+ Tianzi. He was still a young paragon.

Immortal King Hun Tian nodded with satisfaction upon seeing s.h.i.+ Tianzi understand so quickly.

Given this level of maturity and abilities, this kid will achieve great things in the future.

Imparting my legacy to this kid is no loss to me!

...

s.h.i.+ Tianzi scanned his surroundings. He wanted to see how Shen Tian’s cultivation was progressing.

He saw that Shen Tian’s eyes were still tightly closed and his palms facing the sky. He was still in cultivation mode.

“Brother Shen has not finished his cultivation?”

s.h.i.+ Tianzi scratched his head in puzzlement.

It can’t be!

Given Brother Shen’s talents, how can he have not finished his cultivation after so many years?

Don’t tell me... Brother Shen’s enlightenment ability is inferior to mine!?

No way... How can that be... Impossible!

It can’t be!

But Brother Shen is still cultivating. So it must be true!

Does this mean that I have beaten Brother Shen in terms of the ability to gain enlightenment?

s.h.i.+ Tianzi was overjoyed. He puffed out his chest proudly like the indomitable young paragon that he was.

Before meeting Shen Tian, he had been touted as the most powerful prodigy across the five regions. As a result, s.h.i.+ Tianzi had always been very arrogant and looked down upon his peers.

After being defeated by Shen Tian, he finally realized that there would always be someone stronger than you!

Although he had suffered a setback, s.h.i.+ Tianzi had not lost his compet.i.tive drive.

He had always wanted to beat Shen Tian in something, but he had never gotten the chance.

Especially after spending some time with Shen Tian, he had realized that the disparity between them seemed to grow wider and wider.

It was basically impossible for s.h.i.+ Tianzi to beat Shen Tian at anything!

He was so emotionally distraught by the revelation that he wanted to give up.

But now, he had chanced upon this scene. He had already woken up, but Shen Tian had not. Wasn’t the conclusion to this obvious?

This clearly shows that my enlightenment abilities are more powerful than Brother Shen’s!

Haha, Brother Shen, please excuse me. I have finally beaten you at something!

s.h.i.+ Tianzi was feeling very smug. He felt that he had beaten Shen Tian.

...

Immortal King Hun Tian was puzzled by the wicked smile on s.h.i.+ Tianzi’s face.

What kind of weird thoughts are going through this kid’s mind? He can’t even control the expressions on his face?

Young people these days. They get too many ideas in their heads.

“Ahem, ahem.”

Immortal King Hun Tian had no idea what s.h.i.+ Tianzi was thinking about, but he had to interrupt.

In case he is having impure thoughts! It will be harmful to his body!

Immortal King Hun Tian spoke in a mild tone. “Do you mean that kid? He already achieved Greater Mastery of the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra 46 years ago.”

s.h.i.+ Tianzi’s face stiffened. His eyes widened in disbelief. “What? 46 years ago!?”

s.h.i.+ Tianzi was dumbstruck. He felt a buzzing in his head.

He had spent a total of 49 years, while Shen Tian had already mastered it 46 years ago.

Didn’t this mean that he had only spent three years cultivating the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra to the Greater Mastery stage?

d.a.m.n, what kind of freak is Brother Shen?

Why did I try to compete with an enlightenment freak?

Was I mad?

Yes, yes. I must have been groggy after just waking up from my cultivation. I was thinking nonsense!

...

s.h.i.+ Tianzi had personally experienced cultivating the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra. He knew how difficult it was. It would have been impossible for him to reach the Greater Mastery stage within 49 years if not for this conducive environment.

Yet, Shen Tian had only taken three!

Three years compared to 49 years. The disparity was just too great!

s.h.i.+ Tianzi shook his head with a bitter smile. “Compared to Brother Shen, I am like a piece of useless trash.”

Immortal King Hun Tian rolled his eyes and groaned inwardly.

Like a piece of trash? You are a piece of tras.h.!.+

But of course, you are not the only one. In front of that kid, all the prodigies in the Celestial World are just useless trash.

Even myself...

Ahem, never mind!

Of course, Immortal King Hun Tian would never voice out those thoughts. He was worried about hurting this kid’s self-esteem.

Immortal King Hun Tian pretended to console him. “Child, don’t be disheartened.

“With your talents, you are already considered one of the top pract.i.tioners in the Celestial World. As long as you don’t compete with a certain someone, you are considered very powerful!”

s.h.i.+ Tianzi took a deep break and said in a grave voice. “Thank you, Senior. Don’t worry, I am fine.”

He knew that Immortal King Hun Tian was just trying to console him, but s.h.i.+ Tianzi did not mind. Instead, his determination was once again fired up. “Catching up to Brother Shen has always been my goal. The more powerful he is, the more motivated I am!

“I have to trouble Immortal King to send me away from this world. I need to go find more fortuitous opportunities and try my best to catch up to Brother Shen!”

It was no longer advisable for s.h.i.+ Tianzi to continue cultivating in his current state.

After all, he had already spent 49 years and could not advance any further. He had even nearly suffered Qi Deviation.

Even if he continued cultivating, it would be useless.

Instead, it would be better for him to set this aside for the moment and go find other fortuitous opportunities.

The Supreme Sky Tree World would remain open for 100 years, and half of those years were already gone. He could not afford to waste any time.

Immortal King Hun Tian nodded. “Alright, I will send you out then.

“You have extraordinary abilities, and I believe that you will be able to complete the cultivation of the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra in just another 100 years.”

The Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra was already imprinted in s.h.i.+ Tianzi’s mind. He would be able to cultivate even without the Universe Stars Map. He would just need to spend a bit more time.

s.h.i.+ Tianzi already had the foundation, so it should not be too difficult.

s.h.i.+ Tianzi cupped his fists respectfully toward Immortal King Hun Tian. “When Brother Shen wakes up, may I trouble Senior to inform him that I will be waiting for him at Jixia Academy?”

s.h.i.+ Tianzi wanted to take this time to improve himself as much as possible. Even if he couldn’t catch up to Shen Tian, he wanted to narrow the disparity between them as much as possible.

Immortal King Hun Tian nodded. “Go on then!”

He waved, and s.h.i.+ Tianzi’s figure disappeared from the Spherical Heaven Chessboard.

...

Immortal King Hun Tian’s eyes landed on Shen Tian, and he muttered to himself. “This kid has been in silent cultivation for so many years. I wonder how his enlightenment is coming along.”

At their level, a casual seclusion could easily last 100 or 1,000 years.

As a result, Immortal King Hun Tian was not surprised.

His image gradually faded away, leaving Shen Tian alone in that s.p.a.ce.

...

At this very moment, Shen Tian was completely immersed in his silent cultivation.

During this period, he had been a.n.a.lyzing the Universe Stars Map, his divine consciousness wandering across the boundless sea of stars.

Up until this moment, Shen Tian finally realized just how many more hidden secrets were inside this Universe Stars Map.

It looked like an artifact, but it was more like a whole new world encompa.s.sing the entire universe and stars.

Through this deciphering, Shen Tian entered a man-and-nature-as-one state, forgetting everything else!

As a result, his understanding of the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra became increasingly deeper.

This was not just a great place for enlightenment, but it was also a wonderful place for cultivation.

Making use of the Heavenly Cycle Divine Guidance, Shen Tian’s speed of cultivation shot up to over 1,000 or even 10,000 times that in the outside world.

While enjoying the cleansing energy of endless starlight, his cultivation level and aura rapidly enhanced.

Shen Tian recalled something, and an idea sprouted in his mind!

“Come, sword!”

He hollered, and a silver-white light shot out of his body, landing in his hands.

It was a silver sword fetus swirling with chaotic aura. It looked extraordinary, but it was rather ugly. It was filled with dents and cracks and didn’t look like a sword fetus at all.

This was his life weapon, the Chaotic Sword Fetus.

This was the life weapon that Shen Tian had refined using the Chaotic Tinder Forging Art.

Unfortunately, he had been busier lately, so he had forgotten about this sword fetus.

This was the perfect opportunity to refine this Chaotic Sword Fetus to look more beautiful. Otherwise, it would be rather embarra.s.sing to draw out a sword that looked like that.

...

Shen Tian executed some hand seals to attract the power of the stars, gathering it to form star fire.

The star fire burned and radiated with a powerful aura. Even the surrounding fabrics of s.p.a.ce were incinerated.

Shen Tian waved and placed the Chaotic Star Sword into the star fire to refine. He kept thinking about how his Executing Heaven Sword looked like in his mind.

He muttered to himself, “I hope that I can refine it to look better this time.”

As the star fire burned and continuously refined this silver sword fetus, it radiated with a dazzling divine light.

The light was spectacular and blinding.

The silver sword fetus evolved under the continuous refinement of the star fire. But a period of time would be needed before any changes would be apparent.

After nine days and nine nights...

The refinement finally ended. The original sword fetus had now been transformed into a three-feet-long silver sword.

The sword was streaked with a silvery s.h.i.+mmer and very light and nimble. It felt very smooth and agile.

Countless divine runes were carved onto the sword as if a chaotic star map had been engraved on it. It looked very wondrous and mystical.

“Finally done!”

Shen Tian was delighted. He had finally completed refining this sword.

Holding the silver sword, Shen Tian felt like he had become one with this weapon.

This was his life weapon, and it could grow stronger together with him. He would overcome endless challenges with this sword.

And Shen Tian’s powers had improved tremendously from before. So after refinement, this sword’s aura was indomitable.

Shen Tian couldn’t resist testing this newly-refined weapon.

He waved his sword, and blade light rippled through the skies. A beam of silver sword light shot out.

The sword beam penetrated the highest levels of the skies as if wanting to cut through the stars in the galaxy!

Wherever the sword light made contact, the fabrics of s.p.a.ce ripped. Even the Heavenly Dao arrays were destroyed, and laws of nature were disrupted.

Shen Tian was shocked at the sight.

This sword’s power was far beyond that of the Executing Heaven Sword. It had reached supreme-grade Immortal artifact level!

This sword possessed the power to destroy Heavenly Dao arrays. It was definitely an indomitable divine weapon.

Most importantly, this sword would continue to increase in power as Shen Tian’s own abilities grew!

Shen Tian was very excited. He didn’t expect to gain such a great bounty.

Not only had he obtained the Heavenly Cycle Dao Sutra, but he had even refined this invincible divine weapon.

Shen Tian’s eyes burned. “Shall I call you Chaotic Star Sword?”

His chaotic aura and star fire refined this sword. It possessed tremendous power.

This name was very apt.

Hum!

The sword hummed!

It appeared to like the name which Shen Tian had given it.

“I am glad you like it!”

Shen Tian smiled and kept the Chaotic Star Sword.

Like the Executing Heaven Sword, the Chaotic Star Sword could be melded back into Shen Tian’s body.

But one was in his lungs and the other in his dantian so that the two didn’t clash.

...

After storing this Chaotic Star Sword, Shen Tian turned his attention to the Purple Mansion Spiritual World.

He was stunned by the sight which appeared before him.

...

The small world in his body had expanded at an astonis.h.i.+ng pace.

Shen Tian’s Purple Mansion Spiritual World had already been bigger than normal.

Then his Chaotic Nascent Soul had split heaven and earth and stabilized the world, transforming it.

But previously, Shen Tian’s small world had been just about 1,000 miles wide.

Now, it was nearly 10,000 miles in size, and it looked like it was still expanding rapidly.

It was becoming bigger and wider!
