Chapter 433: This Kid Is Willing To Sell His Allegiance To The Highest Bidder!



Chapter 433: This Kid Is Willing To Sell His Allegiance To The Highest Bidder!

Huang Shi was the only one who had witnessed this mind-blowing battle.

To be honest, if not for the Thearch herb, Shen Tian would never put in so much effort to fight Shi Tianzi!

His Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer had been shattered, so he would have suffered a massive loss if he didn’t manage to get the Thearch herb.

He only hoped that Huang Shi would not go back on his word!

...

Suddenly, Shen Tian’s Spirit Qi started to vibrate and spread across his entire body!

His eyes lit up as he muttered to himself, “Am I going to break through now?”

Shen Tian’s cultivation level had already reached Peak-Stage Nascent Soul a long time ago. He had made use of the power of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to break through!

After several months, he had stabilized his foundation but hadn’t managed to reach the barrier to the next stage.

Now, in the midst of his intense battle with Shi Tianzi, Shen Tian had gained an epiphany!

Shi Tianzi was an extraordinarily exceptional prodigy. He had dicoria and paramount talent, while his cultivation level and battle prowess were high beyond fathom. It could be said that he was the most powerful and talented opponent that Shen Tian had ever faced!

Especially because Shi Tianzi’s Creation Calamity Baptism and Shen Tian’s Heaven Earth Splitting divine skills were very similar.

Having experienced the similar Creation Calamity Baptism, Shen Tian could feel the mystic wonders of life, death, and reincarnation in that divine skill.

It was the power of the natural world, full of magnificent Daos. Not any normal person could control it.

It was after witnessing that sight that Shen Tian had an epiphany that moved him toward the Soul Formation stage!

At that moment, Shen Tian’s entire body dazzled with an endless divine light!

Spirit Qi swirled around the air as the light shone like the Milky Way, attracting tens of thousands of magic arrays into his body!

In the blink of an eye, Shen Tian was engulfed in limitless Spirit Qi as his aura rose continuously!

...

Meanwhile, Shi Tianzi doubted the meaning of life.

He could not believe that he had been defeated by Shen Tian.

He was the newest rising star of the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty. He was the paragon of his generation!

Since he was born, he had been indomitable across the eight wildernesses. No one could defeat him!

Even Huang Shi thought highly of him and mentored him personally!

This kind of preferential treatment was unprecedented!

Shi Tianzi’s pride did not allow him to fail, and he had never tasted defeat.

Nonetheless, Shi Tianzi had lost this battle!

The physical pain he was suffering was a constant reminder!

Even though he had only lost by one move, a defeat was still a defeat!

Shi Tianzi was full of despondency. He suddenly realized something.

He turned and saw that Shen Tian was sitting cross-legged, about to break through!

Shi Tianzi’s eyes sparkled as he suddenly felt his heart lift.

He knew why he was defeated now!

Yes, Shen Tian must have already risen to Peak-Stage Soul Formation a long time ago and had spent a long time stabilizing his foundation.

Shen Tian had strong innate potential and the cultivation level of Peak-Stage Soul Formation. It was no shame for Shi Tianzi to lose!

If the two of them had the same cultivation level, Shi Tianzi was confident of beating the Divine Firmament Saint!

He was only at Late-Stage Soul Formation and had only lost by one move!

If he was also at Peak-Stage Soul Formation, he would definitely win!

At this thought, Shi Tianzi’s confidence returned.

Shen Tian had already reached the brink of a breakthrough and would soon step into a more powerful realm!

However, Shi Tianzi was confident of catching up. The barrier between a Heavenly Venerable and a Sage was not that much of an issue to him.

Shen Tian, I will surpass you one day!

...

Fully confident again, Shi Tianzi was soon dumbstruck with shock!

This was because Shen Tian’s true cultivation level was revealed after his sudden breakthrough!

Shi Tianzi started trembling violently as he started to doubt his life again.

He... He just reached Early-Stage Soul Formation!?

So this fellow was at Peak-Stage Nascent Soul just now?

???

A Peak-Stage Nascent Soul practitioner defeating me, a Late-Stage Soul Formation expert?

I was beaten by someone of a lower level than me!?

You must be kidding!

Shi Tianzi had just come up with an excuse to comfort himself.

But now, it was like Shen Tian had turned around to give him a painful slap!

Shi Tianzi scratched his head vigorously. He just could not figure out how Shen Tian had managed to beat him with his Peak-Stage Nascent Soul cultivation!

This... This is just not possible!

Being defeated by a Peak-Stage Nascent Soul peer was way worse than being defeated by a Peak-Stage Soul Formation peer.

This blow to Shi Tianzi was much worse than his feeling of despondency earlier!

What was there to say!

Damn, I am having a mental breakdown!

Shi Tianzi sat down and doodled on the floor as he gave into despair.

It was not that he was emotionally weak, but he had really not suffered such a setback before!

Previously, Shi Tianzi had always been the one to break the hearts of others. Now, he was the one who had his heart broken!

Oh!

My previous first time was taken away by the Divine Firmament Saint just like that.

...

Shen Tian had no idea what was happening with Shi Tianzi. He was completely immersed in his Purple Mansion Spiritual World.

After breaking through to the Soul Formation stage, Shen Tian’s Purple Mansion Spiritual World was evolving into a world of primal chaos.

His Nascent Soul split the heavens and earth and stabilized the world.

Thereafter, Shen Tian’s Purple Mansion Spiritual World didn’t change too much.

But after breaking through to the Soul Formation stage, large amounts of Spirit Qi surged into the Purple Mansion, and the world underwent a startling change!

Endless Spirit Qi morphed into a long river with massive waves that engulfed the world.

In the blink of an eye, the Purple Mansion Spiritual World was covered by a sea of Spirit Qi which swirled and enshrouded the skies and earth!

The Spirit Qi was the purest form of natural energy and full of life force, filling the entire world with vitality.

It was like the entire space was being cleansed as all murky energy was pushed back.

Shadows dispelled, and the space became bright and clear. The entire world lit up.

The earth was also evolving!

The barren, desert-like land was energized by boundless Spirit Qi and became vibrant and full of life.

Green shoots sprouted, filling the great earth with green.

At this moment, the entire world was like a newly born life. It was a perfect world!

Shen Tian smiled.

If this continued, he might be able to create a whole new world in his Purple Mansion Spiritual World!

This was because his Purple Mansion Spiritual World was different from the other worlds!

When his cultivation level reached the Soul Formation stage, he could try creating a Grotto-Heaven Small World in the void. But it would only be a temporary storage space.

The more powerful he became, the bigger and stronger the world he could create, and the more energy it could hold.

For example, Huang Shi had created this Desolate Void Small World. It was very expansive here and far exceeded other Grotto-Heaven Small Worlds, but it was similarly dead without any signs of life.

It was not that this small world had no life. It was that this small world was unable to produce any!

The Spirit Qi and living things in a Grotto-Heaven Small World were all acquired by the practitioner and placed inside the Small World.

These things came from the outside world and were not originally of the Small World!

The Grotto-Heaven Small Worlds were unable to produce any life of their own.

However, Shen Tian’s Purple Mansion Spiritual World was different!

From the moment it was created, it had surpassed all other Grotto-Heaven Small Worlds.

This was because it had the ability to produce life, and this ability was becoming increasingly stronger.

Perhaps in the future, it could evolve to become a world like the five regions.

...

Shen Tian smiled as he observed the changes in his Purple Mansion Spiritual World, but the corners of his lips started twitching.

This was because he saw that his Nascent Soul had also changed.

Spirit Qi continued to nourish his formerly 33-feet tall Nascent Soul, making it grow bigger and bigger.

40 feet!

80 feet!

102 feet!

360 feet!

...

The Nascent Soul grew to a total of 3,300 feet before stopping.

Shen Tian was dazed. It was common knowledge that Nascent Souls would grow as one’s cultivation level increased, from a baby to a teenager to a youth to a healthy adult.

Nevertheless, the size of one’s Nascent soul would usually be proportional to the stage.

Shen Tian’s Nascent Soul was still considered in the “baby” stage, but it was already far larger than anyone else’s.

As his cultivation level broke through to the Soul Formation stage, his Nascent Soul also evolved into a Full Soul, breaking new records!

My goodness. A normal cultivator’s Nascent Soul usually has to undergo the teenage, youth, and adult stages before rising to become a Full Soul. However, my Nascent Soul has evolved into a Full Soul while it is still an infant. And it is now a giant baby!

Looking at the giant thing, Shen Tian felt a little dizzy.

Standing in front of a 3,300 feet Full Soul was rather frightening!

Especially the area below its plump belly...

Luckily, he had created a vast piece of land in his Purple Mansion Spiritual World. Otherwise, this massive Nascent Soul might have destroyed his entire world!

The giant Nascent Soul seemed happy at the fact that life was growing inside this world. It slowly stood up and patted off the dust from its bottom before sprinting through the land.

The giant Nascent soul radiated with a powerful divine glow, lighting up the entire world and causing magic to hum throughout the whole space!

Feeling the effects of this divine glow, the living beings in this corner of the world became even more vibrant.

It was perfecting the energy in this world, completing the evolution.

Nonetheless, it was a very long process!

...

After keeping silent for a long time, Shen Tian slowly emerged from his Purple Mansion Spiritual World.

He had successfully broken through to the Soul Formation stage!

Shen Tian smiled as he felt the bubbling energy.

He had a great harvest this time.

Not only did his cultivation level increase to the Soul Formation stage, but his Purple Mansion Spiritual World also evolved!

It was all thanks to Shi Tianzi’s Creation Calamity Baptism, which led to his epiphany.

He is indeed the goose that lays the golden egg!

Shen Tian’s thoughts started to wander when he thought of Shi Tianzi.

He had just defeated him and had to find a way to restore his dignity.

Otherwise, things would be bad if he bore a grudge!

Shen Tian looked at Shi Tianzi and saw that his eyes were dazed. He looked like he doubted the meaning of life.

He walked up with a smile. “Brother Tianzi, we have gotten to know each other better now that we have exchanged moves. Why don’t we become friends?”

Shen Tian’s smile was friendly and full of sincerity. He truly wanted to make friends with Shi Tianzi.

After all, a Son of Providence of Shi Tianzi’s level was rare.

...

Feeling Shen Tian’s sincerity, Shi Tianzi snapped out of his trance and looked at Shen Tian.

He had enjoyed endless glory since he was born. He had lived a superior existence after becoming a young paragon.

All those of his generation were full of fear and respect for him.

This was why Shi Tianzi was unrivaled but also lonely. No one lived up to his standards, and they would never become his friends.

Until this moment, that was.

Shen Tian’s appearance had shattered Shi Tianzi’s loneliness.

He had met his match!

He had finally been defeated!

Shi Tianzi had tasted defeat, but he didn’t seem upset. In fact, he appeared rather excited!

It was an excitement borne of finding a new goal and opponent. An excitement borne of recovering his desire to fight.

Shi Tianzi’s eyes blazed as he completely dispelled his despondency, which was then replaced by a burning fighting spirit.

He gazed at Shen Tian with determination. “Shen Tian, I will beat you next time!”

With that, Shi Tianzi stood up and left. This was his first experience with defeat and pressure.

Fortunately, this pressure did not make him give up. Instead, it became a driving force.

He had already made beating Shen Tian his personal goal. He would pursue this goal endlessly.

Shen Tian scratched his head as he watched Shi Tianzi leave. He sighed inwardly.

Middle Ground prodigies were indeed magnanimous. They didn’t get angry even after being beaten up.

This was lucky. Otherwise, he would have lost such a valuable source.

Shen Tian would be tearing out his hair in frustration then!

...

At this moment, Huang Shi’s voice rang out. “Shen Tian, you are not bad!”

Even Huang Shi felt rather disturbed after seeing Shen Tian’s performance!

Defeating a True Sage while at Nascent Soul stage. This was completely unheard of.

Only an exemplary celestial prodigy who didn’t belong to the mortal world could do this!

Shen Tian’s battle prowess was unrivaled!

No wonder Old Man Ye was willing to leave his legacy to this kid. He is indeed the only one worthy of the God of War Palace.

However, Huang Shi felt that this fellow was a bit sly!

After all, it was rumored that Shen Tian was an Extreme Dao Heavenly Venerable.

No one expected that Shen Tian was not even a Heavenly Venerable.

If news of this spread out...

The entire five regions would be turned upside down!

...

Shen Tian turned and saw that Huang Shi was staring at him.

Shen Tian was startled and hurriedly said, “Your Highness, you are too kind. I was just lucky.”

Shen Tian continued to harbor the desire to keep a low profile and concentrate on his development. He would hide his true strength as much as he could!

Especially before a Great Thearch like Huang Shi!

Yeap, keeping a low profile is the way to go!

Huang Shi looked exasperated at Shen Tian’s words. “How much effort did you put in earlier?”

Shen Tian was taken aback. He didn’t expect Huang Shi to ask this.

After some thought, he said righteously, “Brother Tianzi is so formidable, I gave my best!”

Huang Shi appeared to have seen through Shen Tian’s deception. He did not believe him at all and shook his head. “How much effort did you put in, really?”

Shen Tian scratched his head. He gave an inward sigh. Huang Shi was indeed an elder who had lived a long time. He was such a sly old fox.

Nonetheless, he refused to budge. “Brother Tianzi is a top prodigy. I was lucky to have beaten him and used up 90% of my true powers!

“Really? You are rather gutsy. You dare to lie to me?”

Huang Shi glanced at Shen Tian. He saw that this kid was indeed very sly. One could not believe anything he said!

Sweating, Shen Tian hurriedly said, “80%. I am speaking the truth this time. I swear!”

Huang Shi remained dubious. He still didn’t really believe him.

Shen Tian swore hastily. “I am speaking the absolute truth. I really used 80% of my true powers. Otherwise, I will be struck dead by lightning!”

Huang Shi sniggered. “The Divine Firmament Saint is afraid of being struck by lightning? That’s a first for me. 80%? Ha, this body of yours is just a clone, right?”

The corners of Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. “Ahem, what clone?”

Huang Shi smiled. “What clone? Of course, I am talking about the Blood God’s Son clone!”

“How did you know!?”

Shen Tian was shaken as he stared at Huang Shi in a daze.

He possessed the Chaotic Tinder Sutra and learned from that Great Empress. No one could detect his aura.

And this body of his was a Blood God’s Son clone created by the Blood God Sutra. It possessed very powerful concealing abilities.

Since the first Blood God’s Son clone was formed, Shen Tian had fed him with a lot of blood essence and precious herbs, nourishing him without any care of cost.

Now, this clone could exude nearly 80% of Shen Tian’s main body. Its appearance and aura were also indistinguishable from the main body.

Even Shen Tian’s close buddies who saw him every day had no idea.

Shen Tian really didn’t know how Huang Shi had seen through him!

Unexpectedly, Huang Shi’s next words completely stunned Shen Tian.

Huang Shi smiled. “Your deviousness is not that high-level yet! The Blood God Sutra is so miraculous that it is difficult even for me to detect it. But I heard that you are very prudent and very skilled at making clones. You also like to use your clones in risky situations.

“If it were the true you, you would have used your pseudo-Immortal artifact, the Ocean Divine Hammer, after the Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer was destroyed.

“But you switched to using the Purple-Green Double Swords. And I cannot detect any pseudo-Immortal artifact or Immortal artifact on this clone of yours.

“So I made a bold guess that this is one of your clones. As a result, you didn’t assign it that many artifacts.

“The Ocean Divine Hammer, Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk and other such artifacts are on your main body.”

Huang Shi’s analysis was extremely astute. Shen Tian broke out in a cold sweat!

My goodness, who the hell is this fellow? He knows me even better than my own dad!?

...

Shen Tian had used artifacts like the Ocean Divine Hammer and Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk in the outside world. It was not strange at all that Huang Shi had heard of them.

However, the Blood God Sutra was one of Shen Tian’s most important trump cards. There was virtually no one else who knew of it.

How did this Huang Shi fellow know of it?

Shen Tian said, “Aren’t you stretching it a little far?”

Great Thearch Huang Shi smiled. “I was indeed stretching it. It was only a guess, but I can see that my guess was accurate from your current reaction.”

Shen Tian, “???”

Huang Shi smiled. “You need to control your emotions. Learn from your Master, Zhang Longyuan. He is very good at that.

“And you don’t need to be on your guard with me. In some ways, I can be considered half a disciple to Old Man Ye. You can call me Uncle Shi.”

Shen Tian, “???”

Are you for real?

Damn, looks like I am still too young.

I must learn more from Master? Don’t tell me I must get a heavenly aura to hide my face too?

Shen Tian looked rather contemplative.

But what the hell is this “Uncle Shi” thing?

He’s clearly trying to take advantage of me!

It’s not much hardship to call the most powerful practitioner across the five regions uncle. Some people might even be dreaming of such an honor!

But I have my pride and dignity. I am not your usual prodigy!

This fellow just exposed me, and he wants me to call him uncle now?

Haha, you must be trying to take advantage!

...

After some casual words, the conversation turned to more important matters.

Huang Shi smiled. “Of course, I will keep my word! You beat Shi Tianzi, so this Thearch herb is yours!”

With that, Huang Shi took out an object.

It was a Celestial Peach, a luscious red and shrouded in divine aura. It exuded extremely thick and fragrant life energy. Even the sky and earth started to change after its appearance. A powerful life force radiated from it, making the surrounding living beings even more vibrant.

Countless arrays swirled around the Celestial Peach, creating the most exquisite divine formation. It was wondrous!

“This is a Thearch herb, the Immortal Peach Herb. It is cultivated from the Immortal Plant. This peach only ripens once every 10,000 years. It possesses a powerful life force and has miraculous effects. It is a Thearch herb that can resurrect a dead man!”

Shen Tian trembled when he saw the Immortal Peach Herb.

He could feel that this Thearch herb possessed very robust power, as mighty as the 12th Stage Lotus.

It should be pointed out that the Lotus Thearch was a mighty Thearch from 100,000 years ago and was the best Thearch in alchemy. It was no sweat off his back to have a Thearch herb of that level.

If Great Thearch Huang Shi could hand out a Thearch herb of this level too, it could be seen just how wealthy he was!

He didn’t hand over the Immortal Peach Herb to Shen Tian directly. He said, “I can give you this Thearch herb, but I have a request. You have to use this Immortal Peach Herb to refine a batch of Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills. And you must give me one!”

Huang Shi had heard of Shen Tian’s extraordinary refining skills.

As the founder of the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty and Jixia Academy, he had many strong practitioners under him. He also had many highly skilled alchemists.

Even so, their abilities were far below that of Shen Tian’s.

Shen Tian’s Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was a heaven-defying pill. Even a Sage would benefit.

Since primordial times, no one had ever witnessed such a miraculous feat.

Huang Shi was of course very interested.

Shen Tian was taken aback by the request. He muttered to himself, “I would be losing out then!”

He would be able to refine more than one Sky-Mending Pill from this Thearch herb, but he had won it fair and square. Now he had to use it to refine pills and also give one out? He would be losing out!

Huang Shi heard Shen Tian’s mutter and shook his head with a bitter smile. “Kid, you are truly calculative!

“Don’t worry. I was once mentored by Old Man Ye. I won’t be unfair to you.

“I will impart to you the Huang Shi Imperial Sutra, as well as a great Sage artifact as compensation. How’s that?”

Great Thearch Huang Shi shook his sleeves, and a divine hammer appeared.

It was shrouded in divine light and covered in divine runes. It exuded a mighty aura as if it could shake the earth and smash all rivers and mountains!

“This is a great Sage artifact: Sky-Shaking Hammer. I will give this to you!”

Shen Tian accepted the hammer and immediately smiled.

“Thank you Uncle Shi!

“Uncle Shi, don’t worry. I will refine a Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill and give it to you!”

Shen Tian immediately felt better upon hearing that he would be compensated.

The Huang Shi Imperial Sutra was created by Huang Shi himself. It was very profound and powerful.

The Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s rise to become the most powerful authority in Middle Ground was largely due to this imperial sutra.

It was definitely one of the most powerful imperial sutras.

Moreover, Huang Shi was personally imparting it to him. So this was definitely the full version!

And the great Sage artifact was not your usual item either. Only a Great Sage who had undergone nine tribulations could have refined that. Its power was far beyond that of a normal Sage artifact.

This Sky-Shaking Hammer was not as good as Shen Tian’s Ocean Divine Hammer, which was a pseudo-Immortal artifact, but it was still very powerful!

And conveniently, his clone’s Purple Firmament Heaven Hammer was destroyed earlier!

Using this as the replacement was a good idea!

The Huang Shi Imperial Sutra and Sky-Shaking Hammer were both items that would create a great furor in the outside world!

It would not be an exaggeration to say that most Sages would fight tooth and nail for them!

In that case, it appeared that this exchange was a win for Shen Tian!

Shen Tian was thrilled!

...

The corners of Huang Shi’s mouth twitched when he heard Shen Tian call him Uncle Shi happily.

This kid is so willing to sell his allegiance to the highest bidder. He really goes wherever the wind blows!

But as the heir to the God of War Palace, he is still rather likeable.

After all, power was king in the cultivation world. Innate talent was the most important.

With power, one didn’t have to care about dignity!

And this kid is so handsome. He reminds me of when I was young.

Looking at Shen Tian’s vibrant countenance, Huang Shi felt like he was seeing his long-lost youth.

For a moment there, he felt rather contented~
