Chapter 407: My Disciple Shen Tian Indeed Has The Bearing Of An Immortal King!
Avatars were everywhere on Penglai Island!
Zhang Yunxi sat cross-legged, engulfed in a dazzling, divine light.
Waves of pure medicinal energy were being refined and seeped into every single part of her. She glowed all over.
Behind her, a 10,000-feet White Tiger avatar filled the air, roaring into the skies and shattering the fabrics of space!
Mixed Divine Lightning radiated outward, dazzling and magnificent as if a Lightning God was about to destroy the world!
Metal Element Mixed Divine Lightning and the White Tiger avatar merged to form multiple golden lightning bolts. Their aura was vibrant and mighty.
Roar!
The tiger’s roar shook the earth!
Dazzling light shot through the air covering the entire sky and shaking the mountains and rivers!
At the same time, another avatar rose.
It was a massive Qilin whose tremendous aura swept across the entire region. Countless beams of Five Elements Divine Light shot out, engulfing the whole world in its spectacular light!
Beams of divine light crisscrossed the entire sky and earth as if it was a massive divine array staking out this whole area.
This was the Mighty Qilin avatar. It was a fearsome sight!
Light radiated from Fang Chang’s body as magic arrays filled the air!
His aura kept increasing, and a 1,000-foot golden giant avatar appeared behind him. It intersected with the Mighty Qilin avatar.
One by one, multiple fearsome and mighty avatars appeared, enveloping the entire Penglai Island.
The auras of Zhang Yunting, Zhao Hao, Eunuch Gui, and the rest were all enhanced, dominating the entire region.
Their foundation and cultivation abilities were all rapidly increasing due to the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills.
Especially Zhao Hao and Eunuch Gui, who both had weaker cultivation abilities and foundations, benefited the most.
Zhao Hao was just a normal prodigy from Fog City, and even though Sword Venerable Qian Yang mentored him, his foundation was still somewhat weaker than Fang Chang and the rest.
This gap between him and the rest had been there since they were children, and it was not something that could be closed up within a year and a half.
After all, Fang Chang, Zhang Yunting, and Zhang Yunxi had already cultivated the Divine Firmament Imperial Sutra to the highest levels and achieved the Lightning Spirit Constitution.
After finding the Decalamity chapter, both Fang Chang and Zhang Yunxi had progressed so much that they were now in the initial stages of forming a miniature Five Elements Divine Lightning Constitution.
As for Zhang Yunting, he was the same as his father, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. They were both very secretive about their powers.
Even Fang Chang had no idea just how powerful his Second Junior Brother was.
However, given his past performance, he should not be that far off from Fang Chang or Zhang Yunxi.
Zhao Hao was also a great prodigy and was often touted as the fourth most powerful in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, after Fang Chang, Zhang Yunting, and Zhang Yunxi.
If he really wanted to catch up with those three, he had to cultivate hard for at least another three to five years.
But now, after consuming the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, Zhao Hao’s foundation and talent were increasing at an astonishing pace. The surging power of the pill washed over his entire body, completely transforming him.
After swallowing that pill, Zhao Hao would never have to feel inferior to anyone again about his constitution.
This was because he had already achieved one of the most elite divine constitutions in the entire Eastern Wilderness and even across the five regions!
Of course, it was still far from Shen Tian’s freakish constitution.
Nevertheless, one could not compare with Shen Tian, or they would have to hide in shame all the time.
Apart from that, all the surrounding fire-attribute Spirit Qi surged wildly into Zhao Hao’s body. His cultivation level shot up like a rocket.
A Golden Core hovered over Zhao Hao’s body. It shone with boundless flame and lightning. It even had a faint image of a crimson Phoenix circling it.
It circled rapidly round after round, its aura rapidly strengthening.
A normal cultivator would need many years to stabilize their Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage, but Zhao Hao was doing so with extraordinary ease.
This was not all. After Zhao Hao’s Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage was completed, things did not end there.
Yes, his Golden Core... was undergoing its 10th refinement!
It should be pointed out that reaching the Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage meant pushing right to the uppermost limits!
Why did Qi Shaoxuan dare to crush all the Eastern Wilderness prodigies and even challenge Middle Ground?
He was confident solely because of his powerful Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage! It was a rare stage that one might only see in Eastern Wilderness once every 10,000 years!
But now, Zhao Hao had easily achieved it!
It should be pointed out that just a year ago, he was just a mediocre youth whose cultivation level was only subpar!
If Zhao Hao reaching the Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage was jaw-dropping, then Eunuch Gui’s transformation was downright mind-blowing.
Yes!
This old eunuch’s body radiated a mighty sun aura as if he had morphed into an indomitable sun.
After cultivating the Imperial Sutra of Sun, he and Qin Gao had managed to mend their physical defects. They then raised their cultivation levels by gradually consuming spirit herbs.
Even so, the gulf between Eunuch Gui and a true prodigy remained wide. This was a gulf determined by one’s innate potential. It was not something that would be easy to surpass.
After consuming the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, however, Eunuch Gui could feel his entire body on the rise.
Parts of the Imperial Sutra of Sun, which he couldn’t understand before, suddenly made sense to him. The parts where the energy flow was disrupted now circulated very smoothly.
His power was surging like a great river, his aura at exceptionally high levels!
A dazzling Golden Core was spinning non-stop above his head!
Yes, it was also the legendary extreme Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage!
If Qi Shaoxuan had witnessed this scene, he would have already collapsed to his knees in bewilderment, having strong doubts about the meaning of life!
When did a Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage become so worthless? Anyone with a Golden Core could achieve it!?
At that moment, everyone finally realized how freakishly potent the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill that Shen Tian just handed out was!
Shen Tian had said this could “enhance one’s foundation and ability to decipher things”. He was being way too modest—this thing could make a person undergo a complete transformation!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was completely stunned by this scene. He looked bewildered. “What the hell did I miss?”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was bewildered. He had just left for a minute. How did these Martial Nephews of his suddenly become so much more powerful?
I was so hardworking as to go and find some fortuitous opportunities. Not only did I not find any, but I even got beaten up.
These few kids didn’t even do anything but managed to gain such a great fortuitous opportunity and undergo such a wonderful transformation!?
Not only had their cultivations increased, but even their innate potential had risen dramatically!
It was completely ridiculous. Was there still justice in this world?
Azure Lotus was pulling out his hair at this point!
Meanwhile, everyone had more or less refined the pills to the maximum level which they could.
They could only refine a small portion, so they distributed and stored the rest to the other parts of their bodies.
Even so, the refined part of the pill was enough to greatly increase their cultivation!
Boom!
A powerful aura surged like a hurricane across the lands.
Zhang Yunxi’s cultivation level was rapidly increasing!
Early-Stage Nascent Soul!
Mid-Stage Nascent Soul!
Late-Stage Nascent Soul!
Peak-Stage Nascent Soul!
In the blink of an eye, Zhang Yunxi’s cultivation level soared, and she successfully jumped from Early-Stage Nascent Soul to Peak-Stage Nascent Soul!
Boom!
Zhang Yunxi shot up into the air. Her battle intent was focused on Princess Linglong. “Princess Linglong, let’s fight another round.”
This girl was slightly better than me only because she consumed the pill first.
Now that my cultivation level has also risen, I must let her experience my power!
I must let her know that not just anyone can woo my Junior Brother!
Zhang Yunxi’s desire for battle became increasingly intense. Her White Tiger avatar erupted with dazzling lightning, her aura rising to terrifying levels.
Given Zhang Yunxi’s present power, she was confident of defeating even a normal Soul Formation cultivator.
Upon detecting Zhang Yunxi’s desire for battle, Princess Linglong’s three Grotto-Heavens rose up behind her. She exuded an endless glow, which enveloped her entire body, making her appear rather mystical.
Princess Linglong snorted. “Let’s fight then. Who’s afraid of you?”
Dazzling light rays shot out of the three Grotto-Heavens, charging straight toward Zhang Yunxi.
Boom!
The three Grotto-Heavens and the White Tiger avatar clashed together, sending off a series of impact waves. Even the fabrics of space started to crack.
It was an even match!
The bodies of the two ladies trembled, but their thirst for battle grew even more intense.
Both of them were outstanding female prodigies at the top of their generation. No one was willing to give way.
Moreover, this was a battle to prove their mettle!
To prove who was good enough to stand by Shen Tian’s side.
As a result, both of them went all out!
Boom!
Zhang Yunxi struck again and formed streaks of Metal Element Mixed Divine Lightning, which carried the aura of devastating firepower.
After her cultivation level and constitution rose, Zhang Yunxi became better at controlling the Mixed Divine Lightning. Her power was enough to annihilate a formidable Heavenly Venerable.
The Metal Element Mixed Divine Lightning spread out, and every inch of space it came into contact with disintegrated into nothing.
Princess Linglong remained calm. Her three Grotto-Heavens’ aura surged out to form a colossal tripod cauldron.
This was the Lotus Thearch’s legacy battle technique. Princess Linglong was able to execute it easily. Her aura was exceedingly suppressive!
Dong, dong, dong!
Flames roared up into the skies!
The Metal Element Mixed Divine Lightning raged on as the tripod cauldron hummed.
Tens of thousands of dazzling divine light beams shot out, shattering the surrounding fabrics of space and turning the entire area into a mass of debris.
“These two young ladies are quite fierce!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus stood by the side watching, but his eyes were fixed on Zhang Yunxi.
He wanted to know what had triggered such a major change in Zhang Yunxi.
If I can get the same, won’t I be able to ascend the heavens then?
At that thought, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ face lit up. He hurried asked, “Junior Brother, what medicine did my Martial Niece eat to become so formidable?”
It must be some very potent medicine to allow her to jump from Early-Stage Nascent Soul to Peak-Stage Nascent Soul within such a short period!
If I can get some, I might instantly transcend!
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura rippled. “Didn’t Senior Brother already find the Lotus Thearch’s legacy? Why would you care about the fortuitous opportunities of these kids?”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ face turned red. He pursed his lips. “Of course, I don’t care about that. I am just showing concern for my Martial Niece.”
He inwardly grumbled, I didn’t get a single thing. How can I possibly not care? If there is really a fortuitous opportunity, I must have a share too! Otherwise, how am I supposed to cultivate when I have no resources at all!
Following that, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus turned to look at Shen Tian.
Shen Tian felt his gaze and smiled. “Martial Uncle, what’s the matter?”
For some reason, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ heart shuddered upon seeing Shen Tian’s smile.
Shen Tian’s question was like a big, fat punch to him, driving him into a panic. And that was not your normal big, fat punch!
It was like being surrounded and battered by the array formations of 10 Thearchs for 15 minutes!
As high as my cultivation level is, I cannot endure such a formidable battering! It was such an intensely terrifying experience!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus felt a lingering fear in his heart.
What if this kid said there is a fortuitous opportunity somewhere? Should I go or not? Not everyone can be like that kid, able to hold himself no matter what he encounters.
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus chose the safe option. “Nothing, I can just go ask my Martial Niece.”
The main reason was that the others were still cultivating in seclusion. The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was ignoring him, while he did not dare to ask Shen Tian.
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had no choice but to find Zhang Yunxi.
Zhang Yunxi was still fighting with Princess Linglong.
But I don’t care! It’s just two little girls making a fuss. It’s about time they stopped this nonsense. I have more important things to do!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus strode confidently onto the battlefield.
Shen Tian raised his eyebrows. He was watching the battle and saw that it was already at hair-raising levels beyond many Heavenly Venerables.
Even a peak Heavenly Venerable might not be able to defend against them.
It was such an intense battle. It was clear that both girls’ battle fires had been lit, and they were giving it their all.
Now that Heavenly Venerable Azure was going to walk right into the fray, Shen Tian quickly warned him, “Martial Uncle, be careful. They are about to—”
Heavenly Venerable Azure interrupted Shen Tian with a wave of his hand. “Don’t worry. Given my cultivation level, they are unable to hurt me at all!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus stood up. “Martial Niece, Little Linglong, please stop for a moment. I have something to say—
“Damn!”
Before he could finish his sentence, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus cried out as he jumped three feet into the air. If he had reacted a second too late, he would have been swallowed by the divine blast.
Boom!
A divine aura erupted, shaking the entire region!
Shen Tian shook his head and turned to look at Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus. “Martial Uncle, I already tried to warn you. They were about to execute a big move!”
Martial Uncle Azure Lotus was an example of a good senior citizen. He was trying to show his fellow cultivators by example what would happen if one tried to intervene in a fight. Unless you were very handsome, please do not try what he just did.
Even if you had to, don’t just cut in at any place. Certainly not right in the middle!
Otherwise, the consequences would be dire!
Boom!
The surrounding fabrics of space exploded!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was near the center of the blast and suffered an intense blow.
Meanwhile, Zhang Yunxi was bathed in dazzling lightning, her Metal Element Mixed Divine Lightning covering her body like armor and merging with her body.
This was from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s forbidden chapter, Decalamity!
After breaking through to Peak-Stage Nascent Soul, Zhang Yunxi had already mastered the essence of Decalamity.
She morphed into the Metal Element Mixed Divine Lightning source and had full control of it. Her power was terrifying to the extreme.
Countless lightning bolts were triggered, thundering and roaring through space, as if about to completely destroy this entire area.
The aura of every single lightning bolt was very fearsome. It possessed a power enough to threaten even a mighty Heavenly Venerable!
If trapped by such a massive lightning array, even a peak Heavenly Venerable would perish inside.
Zhang Yunxi had undergone a tremendous change after consuming the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill. It was not just a simple increase of her cultivation level!
Princess Linglong also executed a big move!
Her three Grotto-Heavens burned strongly, exuding light and magic.
Three figures appeared, one in each Grotto-Heaven, surrounded by the Heavenly Dao.
The three figures moved in unison, raising their arms and creating a massive handprint—it released a palm strike that was enough to turn the world upside down!
Space was compressed by limitless energy, disintegrating into nothing!
This attack was the ultimate technique of the Huang Shi Imperial Sutra—Earthshaking Palm Print!
Princess Linglong was the Celestial Dynasty’s princess and Huang Shi’s direct descendant. She had a deep understanding of the Huang Shi Imperial Sutra and was naturally able to decipher the essence of this legacy.
With the power of her three Grotto-Heavens enhancing the Huang Shi Imperial Sutra, even a peak Heavenly Venerable might not be able to withstand her attack!
In the blink of an eye, a fearsome aura erupted on the battlefield.
This was no ordinary attack!
Princess Linglong and the Divine Firmament Saintess were going all out, and... Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was standing right in the middle!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus suddenly realized what was meant by, “One should always fear the power of the younger generation”!
Mmm, he also realized what was meant by, “One should always fear the power of women”!
Boom!
An earth-shattering boom resounded!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was sent flying through the air.
Countless lightning bolts and the Earthshaking Palm Print clashed, sending sparks all over the area!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus quickly recomposed himself, erupted with a golden light, and a powerful gust of aura surged out.
Boom!
The lighting array was shattered, and a bronze staff pierced the massive handprint.
A golden, shimmering old Taoist priest was left standing there alone, holding a huge golden staff. He looked very cool and awesome.
Well!
Also, a little pathetic!
Heavenly Venerable Azure’s hair was in disarray, and his new purple robe was once again torn and tattered. He was also coughing out white smoke.
Princess Linglong and Zhang Yunxi were startled by the sight and rushed to his side. “Martial Uncle, are you alright?”
“I am fine. Who do you think I am? Your attacks are just a tickle to my side!”
If not for the fact that Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was still panting with smoke coming out his ears, everyone might have really believed him.
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus tidied his hair and smiled. “Martial Niece, can you tell me how you managed to raise your powers so fast?”
Zhang Yunxi was momentarily taken aback. “It is all thanks to Junior Brother’s Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill!”
She was filled with doubts and suspicions.
Martial Uncle Azure Lotus came to stop our battle just for this?
Impossible!
Junior Brother must have asked him to come to smooth things out! After all, everyone knows about Junior Brother’s Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills. Martial Uncle Azure Lotus cannot possibly not know about it!
He is clearly pretending to cover up for Junior Brother.
Junior Brother does care for me, after all.
Zhang Yunxi blushed at this thought.
Meanwhile, Princess Linglong was also blushing. It was clear that the two of them were having the exact same thoughts.
What? I expended so much energy, and the thing was actually with Shen Tian all along!?
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ face turned black. His newly-tidied hair nearly blew up again!
Nonetheless, he quickly changed his expression and was all smiles again.
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus rubbed his hands and walked toward Shen Tian. “Martial Nephew, I think your Master wants some of those pills. Why don’t you give me two? I will help you deliver them to him.”
Shen Tian, “...”
The crowd, “...”
Zhang Yunxi couldn’t help calling out, “Martial Uncle, you are being too straightforward!”
Which Martial Uncle would ever beg their Martial Nephew for something? And using his Martial Nephew’s Master as a scapegoat on top of that!?
He really lived up to his reputation!
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus just pursed his lips in nonchalance.
Pride? How much is that worth?
These kids’ power was enhanced to extreme levels. Meanwhile, I poured in so much effort and didn’t reap any rewards. I even got beaten up.
He felt rather sour inwardly!
Who cares if I lose a little of my dignity today. I must get one of those pills.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader knew very well what Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was thinking. He grabbed Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus by the back of his neck, exuded his oppressive aura, and dragged Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus back.
Divine light shot out of a chain array, tying up Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus. The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader said mildly, “This kind of pill is not that useful to you. Senior Brother, don’t waste precious treasures!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus struggled and shouted. “I just want a taste! Just a taste!”
Shen Tian smiled and shook his head. “Master, these pills are just as effective toward Sages who have undergone tribulations!
“The Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was refined using a 12th Stage Lotus and is a true-blue Thearch-level pill.
“Even a True Sage will be able to see his foundation and innate ability to decipher greatly increase!
“Master, Martial Uncle, I have specially reserved these two pills for you.”
Shen Tian took out two Chaotic Sky-Mending pills and handed them to the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.
“Thearch-level pill? I want it!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ eyes lit up.
A Thearch-level pill that can raise a Sage’s innate ability? Too tempting!
Without another word, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus snatched one of the pills from the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s hand. He held it tightly in his own hand. “Martial Nephew, how can I accept this?”
Immediately after, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus stuffed the pill into his mouth and swallowed it.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader behaved with much more dignity. His lightning and heavenly aura vibrated intensely, but his voice remained calm.
“Tian’er is so filial. I am very happy! But this is a Thearch-level pill. Tian’er, you should keep it for yourself. You might have some use for it in the future. I have no need for it.”
Shen Tian bowed. “Master has been so kind to me and taught me so much since I entered the sect. You have guided me and protected me from powerful foes. My current cultivation level and achievements, I owe them all to you. I would be nothing without you! This Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill is the least I can do. Please accept it.”
“Tian’er, I really don’t need it.”
“Master, please accept it!”
“I don’t need it. Why don’t you give it to the other disciples!”
“If you ever have such a need in the future, I can refine more. Master, please don’t stand on ceremony then!”
“You can refine more?”
“As long as I have the materials, I can refine more anytime!”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura rippled wildly.
He finally said in resignation. “Alright then, Since you insist, I will accept it.”
With that, the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader consumed the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill and started to refine its power.
Mmm, there was no need to say anything more.
That earlier exchange showed clearly the difference between the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus.
Otherwise, why had the Second Senior Brother ended up being the Sacred Leader?
Virtue over seniority!
Of course, the intense vibration of the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader aura clearly reflected the turbulent emotions inside his heart.
Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill~
A Thearch-level pill that could raise a Sage’s innate potential was unheard of. One could not get this even in exchange for a top Sage artifact!
The most powerful practitioners across the five regions would fight like mad for this kind of peerless divine pill!
Yet, Shen Tian was able to refine more of such pills without limit!
With such a pill, my Divine Firmament Sacred Ground will definitely rise again!
My disciple indeed has the bearing of an Immortal King!
Hehehehehehe!
