I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 304: Golden Shimmer Appears, New Ability



Chapter 304: Golden Shimmer Appears, New Ability

What is that?

Qi Shaoxuan instinctively caught the blue crystal, which Shen Tian had thrown.

It felt cold and icy. The crystal sparkled in Qi Shaoxuan’s palm.

Qi Shaoxuan instantly felt his entire body relax. Even his restless Nascent Soul started to quieten down.

Yeap, or maybe it was completely broken and couldn’t move anymore.

Qi Shaoxuan looked curious as he sized up the crystal in his hand. “What is this? Why does it make my soul feel so comfortable?”

Standing to the side, the Crab Prince looked very envious. “That should be the Sea God’s Star Tear. A precious treasure from Chaotic Star Island. It can strengthen one’s soul.”

The White Prince added, “The issue with the Purple Mansion Saint’s breakthrough is because the Golden Core 10th Refinement Stage is too powerful. Your Nascent Soul is unable to handle it.

“But if Brother Qi absorbs the power of this Sea God’s Star Tear and strengthens his Nascent Soul, his ascension to the Nascent Soul stage will go very smoothly. He will not encounter any difficulty.”

Ao Wu nodded. “I heard that one Sea God’s Star Tear could replace 100 years of cultivation efforts. It is a very rare treasure indeed.

“In the past, humans have visited the Mermaid race in hopes of using three Spirit artifacts to exchange for one Sea God’s Star Tear. They were all rejected.

“This kind of treasure is just too rare. The Mermaid race has a special ability to find these Star Tears.

“But apart from them, it is very rare for the other ocean races to possess even one. It is priceless!

“Didn’t expect Brother Shen to have a Star Tear. To think he is even willing to give it to you.”

...

After listening to Ao Wu’s and the four princes’ explanation, Qi Shaoxuan stared dazedly at the Sea God’s Star Tear in his palm.

So this finger-sized object is so valuable! Just a single Sea God’s Star Tear is able to replace 100 years of cultivation.

It must be pointed out that the more talented a cultivator was, the fussier they would be about building a solid foundation for themselves. Most would choose to focus on establishing a very good foundation for themselves while they were still young.

Also, most mystic realms would have an age limit. For example, North Sea’s Chaotic Star Island only allowed cultivators at the age of 500 and below to enter.

Under such special circumstances, the price of one Sea God’s Star Tear would not be as simple as just 100 years of cultivation.

For example, if Qi Shaoxuan didn’t have this Sea God’s Star Tear, he would have to spend time stabilizing his cultivation level.

Even if he successfully broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, he still might not be able to go toe-to-toe with those prodigies at that level.

He might be able to handle himself against cultivators like Bi Xuanqing and Er Tongtian. But it would be a completely different matter if he encountered exceptional prodigies like Kun Ming.

However, if he absorbed this Sea God’s Star Tear, Qi Shaoxuan could completely secure his new-born Nascent Soul and then use his own energy to stabilize his new Nascent Soul powers.

By then, Qi Shaoxuan would be able to double his strength. Even if he met some formidable opponent like Kun Ming, he would at least be able to escape in one piece.

And doubling his strength would result in an exponential increase in the number of gains he would get from Chaotic Star Island.

His gains might increase by three, five, or even ten times. The difference was that significant.

...

Brother Shen is also at the peak of the Golden Core stage. He must also need the Sea God’s Star Tear at this point. But he chose to give this precious treasure to me!

Qi Shaoxuan’s heart quivered slightly. He was no fool. He knew just how valuable a Sea God’s Star Tear was during this crucial period just before Chaotic Star Island would be opened.

Perhaps this Sea God’s Star Tear might be worth several superior-grade Spirit artifacts in normal times. But during this period, this Sea God’s Star Tear was something no amount of Spirit artifacts could be used to exchange for.

How do I repay Brother Shen for giving this Star Tear to me at this time?

I have treated Brother Shen as my sworn enemy and have dreamed of defeating him in public multiple times.

But Brother Shen bears no grudge against me at all. Not only did he speak up for me in front of the Black Dragon King, but he has now given me this treasure to help with my breakthrough.

Is this the true confidence of a person who is completely indomitable? Compared to Brother Shen, I feel so ashamed!

The rims of Qi Shaoxuan’s eyes turned red. All sorts of emotions churned inside his heart.

He gazed at Shen Tian for a long time before handing the Sea God’s Star Tear back to him.

“I appreciate Brother Shen’s kind intentions.

“But this Sea God’s Star Tear is also useful to you. You should keep it and use it for yourself! I will work harder, I can do it!”

In Qi Shaoxuan’s eyes, Shen Tian’s Golden Core may not have any Divine Emblems, but it was very big. Extraordinarily big.

With this kind of strange Golden Core, it would be quite difficult for Shen Tian to crack it and form a new soul.

Qi Shaoxuan must not take advantage of others!

Shen Tian was stunned by the resolution on Qi Shaoxuan’s face.

What?

Crack my core to form a new soul?

Crack what core? Form what soul?

I have just recently cultivated this tiny Golden Core!

And this Sea God’s Star Tear is meant to be yours anyway. Why are you making it so difficult for me to return it to you!?

...

Shen Tian said in exasperation, “I have more of this Sea God’s Star Tear. Brother Shen urgently needs this now to strengthen your Nascent Soul. Just take it first!”

Qi Shaoxuan shook his head with a sigh. “Brother Shen, no need to persuade me. Your Golden Core is so big. It will be more difficult to crack it to form a new soul. You need it more than me.

“Although I am momentarily stuck, I will find a way to navigate my way around this barrier. No need to waste such a precious treasure on me.”

The corners of Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. “Brother Qi, don’t worry. The Mermaid Princess gave me this Star Tear. She gave me three.”

Qi Shaoxuan was taken aback. He asked suspiciously, “How is that possible? Don’t tell me Brother Shen sold his body for it?

“If you did, how did you manage to return so quickly? Brother Shen...

“Did you say she gave you three? I don’t believe it. Show me the other two!”

Shen Tian, “...”

Why is this Qi Shaoxuan so wishy-washy?

When I first met this fellow, wasn’t he extremely overbearing and arrogant?

Why is he behaving like a woman now? Making such a big fuss over a Sea God’s Star Tear!

And saying that I was too fast? Get your mind out of the gutter, you scoundrel!

If I really bedded her, it would take at least three days!

By then, what would you do? Can you endure three days of agony from your Nascent Soul problem?

Shen Tian never claimed to be a virtuous man, but he would never leave a friend in the lurch because of a woman’s allure.

Ah!

Qi Shaoxuan’s face suddenly changed.

His purple Nascent Soul started to vibrate. He felt very weak.

A Nascent Soul trapped by the Golden Core and unable to return to the body—it would be a major drain on one’s spirit energy.

If he didn’t crack his core properly soon, Qi Shaoxuan’s purple Nascent Soul might really suffer permanent damage.

“Brother Qi, are you going to eat this or not?”

“I always mean what I say. Unless Brother Shen shows me the other two Sea God’s Star Tears, I will not!”

“Since you refuse to see reason, don’t blame me for doing this the hard way!”

“Brother Shen, what are you doing? Brother Shen, you are going too far! Stop this humiliating action. I already said I am not eating it, and I won’t!”

“This is an emergency. I have no choice. To ensure your safety, I have no choice but to use force. Brother Qi, open your mouth!”

“Even if you stuff it into my mouth, I can still spit—

“Ohh! Mmffffppptt!”

...

Qi Shaoxuan was now bound tightly by the Divine Devouring Vine, with one vine stuffed straight down his throat.

Ao Wu and the four princes shuddered at the sight.

What’s happening?

You are giving someone a treasure, but then you use a vine to bind him and stuff it down his throat?

You human prodigies... You guys are really wild!

Even more astonishing was the fact that Shen Tian had managed to subdue Qi Shaoxuan so easily.

Although Qi Shaoxuan was not in good condition now, he was still not someone who could be easily bullied. Nonetheless, he was bound up in an instant.

This proved just how terrifying Shen Tian’s power was. He had clearly held back previously.

If he really went all out, he might shock the entire five regions!

The Sea God’s Star Tear was shoved right into Qi Shaoxuan’s stomach by the Divine Devouring Vine. It soon transformed into a ball of energy and spread out.

Qi Shaoxuan was instantly enveloped by blue light. Soul energy radiated out of him.

Although the process had been humiliating, Qi Shaoxuan was now being supported by the power of the Sea God’s Star Tear. His Nascent Soul was quickly strengthening.

His Nascent Soul, which his Golden Core had trapped, was now vibrating like it had been injected with a shot of adrenaline.

It punched out with its right hand, and a crack appeared on the right corner of the Golden Core.

Another punch, and another crack appeared in the left corner. Two hands reached out.

Following that, the Nascent Soul’s legs kicked out from below the Golden Core.

The finger-sized Nascent Soul was now completely free of the Golden Core. It looked like it was wearing golden armor.

Yeap, that’s right.

It looked rather heroic.

At least, the Turtle Prince Wu Wudi felt so.

...

Satisfied, Shen Tian kept his Divine Devouring Vine. Yeap, a portion of it had been cut off.

If he knew using force would have made things go so smoothly, he would have used it in the first place.

Being so wishy-washy was a waste of time.

After shoving the Sea God’s Star Tear into Qi Shaoxuan’s mouth, Shen Tian was pleased to see his providence recover.

The purple patterns on Qi Shaoxuan’s halo had been fading, but it was now brighter than ever. More patterns had even appeared.

Although it didn’t cover the entire halo, the patterns were definitely clearer than before.

Meanwhile, Shen Tian felt a delicious shiver travel up his whole body.

He quietly took out a mirror and peeked at the space above his own head. Joy flashed across his face.

Shen Tian’s originally deep red halo was now slowly turning to a black-red color.

And faint golden shimmers could be seen in the red now. It looked splendid and regal.

Yes, after taking advantage of Qi Shaoxuan’s fortuitous opportunity, Shen Tian finally managed to make progress on his own halo.

Following the appearance of those faint golden shimmers, Shen Tian felt relaxed all over.

At the same time, he received a mysterious piece of information.

His ability to observe other people’s providence halos and fortuitous opportunity images had advanced again.

Previously, a black-haloed Shen Tian could only see incomplete fortuitous opportunity images. And the images were blurrier.

For example, Qin Gao’s fortuitous opportunity was clearly the Demon Book of Hyuga, but when Shen Tian had gone searching for it, everything had stopped at the History Of The Great Fire.

As Shen Tian’s providence improved, his ability to see those fortuitous opportunity images also strengthened.

...

When Shen Tian had a red halo, he could already affirm the time at which the person would meet their fortuitous opportunity.

Now that his halo had a golden shimmer, Shen Tian’s ability had been enhanced once again.

And that was... He could track the fortuitous opportunity in real-time!
