I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 161

Although there were no clouds in the sky above the Fog Plain, lightning could be seen.

The mighty lightning gathered in the sky above the Fog Plain, dispersing the spirit fog. The 10 divine beasts' avatars could be vaguely seen soaring in the sky, emitting a fearsome aura.

The Divine Firmament's Sacred Leader had submerged his whole body within the lightning and heavenly aura. He was as majestic as a deity that had descended, full of energy.

He had already set up the Divine Firmament Heaven Refining Array, and he had been dispersing the spirit fog for one day and one night now. The spirit fog within the Fog Plain had already thinned by many times, and one could even vaguely see into the depths of the plain.

To that, the Divine Firmament's Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus both felt extremely shocked as this was simply going too smoothly, to the point that it was unreasonable.

A great demon, a Divine Binding Vine, was in the depths of the Fog Plain. This was not a secret between the top sects in the Eastern Wilderness.

As to why the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, which was beside the Fog Plain, had not annihilated and brought the Fog Plain under its control, it was simple. The Divine Binding Vine had been cultivating for thousands of years in the plain and had long transformed it into her domain.

Most of the Fog Plain was Lu Ji's land, and she could control it at will. The spirit fog Lu Ji released would even affect the divine consciousness of many Sages. In addition, her natural divine ability, Ground Burrowing, allowed her to be able to travel anywhere within the Fog Plain. Thus, even if human Sages were to make a move, they might not be able to subdue her, not to mention she had the hidden card of the Divine Devouring Vine bloodline up her sleeves.

Initially, in the Sacred Leader's and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus' minds, a normal Sage would need months to be able to clear the fog.

Although the Sacred Leader had brought the 10 Lightning Emperor Flags, and his speed was increased by many times, he would need at least three days and nights to be able to completely destroy the fog array that Lu Ji had set up.

This spirit fog array, which could cover even the sky, was something she had been reinforcing for thousands of years, after all.

Also, in the process of dispersing the fog, he still had to avoid accidentally injuring Shen Tian.

Nonetheless, the two of them had never thought that after just one day and night, he would have almost finished refining the spirit fog array of the Fog Plain. It had almost completely disappeared.

There was only one possibility—no one was reinforcing the spirit fog array anymore!

In fact, when the Sacred Leader activated the Divine Firmament Heaven Refining Array, indeed, he did not sense any resistance. As such, the Sacred Leader took a look at Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus and kept quiet, but what he meant was already obvious.

You see? I said that there is no need to worry at all. That unlucky demon has already died because of Tian'er. Now we need to hurry and find Tian'er, to allow him to feel the warmth of our sacred ground.

Being Senior and Junior Brothers for 1,000 years, Azure Lotus could understand his look in an instant.

Unfortunately, Azure Lotus was stubborn.

So what if a drastic change did happen in the Fog Plain? Can you guarantee that this change is related to Shen Tian, or confirm that Shen Tian is the final winner?

Azure Lotus was a little envious. Frankly speaking, he did not wish for anything to happen to Shen Tian, but he also did not want him to obtain a fortuitous opportunity. That was because he had already seen what the Sacred Leader had recorded—it was all because of his rejection that Shen Tian had not become his disciple.

Azure Lotus thought that Shen Tian was a bottomless hole when it came to consuming resources, and he would definitely become even unluckier as he cultivated the Tinder Sutra.

However, facts proved that Shen Tian was the Son of Providence, and he had also encountered a fortuitous opportunity in this experiential journey.

But this fortuitous opportunity was not related to Azure Lotus at all, so wouldn't he regret it for life?

No one realized that the Sacred Leader and Azure Lotus were communicating with their eyes.

Zhang Yunxi looked at the spirit fog, which was becoming thinner, and her eyes were filled with passion. “Father, can I go in now?”

Currently, the Fog Plain was only left with some extremely thin spirit fog, so its influence on cultivators was already not that strong.

The Sacred Leader nodded slightly. “I can already sense Tian'er's specific location. All of you wait here.”

Azure Lotus started thinking.

According to Junior Brother, this kid has most likely encountered a fortuitous opportunity! You wanna let me wait here… You're really cunning, Junior Brother! You want to hog all the benefits for yourself!

At that thought, Azure Lotus said righteously, “Junior Brother, you were injured severely from setting up the array formation. In my opinion, you should rest in Fog City. Let me go and find my Martial Nephew!”

The Sacred Leader looked at Azure Lotus coldly. How could he not know what his Senior Brother was thinking of?

If he were to let this person go find Shen Tian, the latter would definitely be safe, but not even a Forgetting Pill would be left for him!

The Sacred Leader replied coldly, “It's okay. Although I have injured my vitality, I can recover after resting for a few years. It's totally worth it to save Tian'er! Such a small matter, there's no need to tell Tian'er and make him worried.”

After finishing, the Sacred Leader looked at Azure Lotus. “I have already sensed where Tian'er is. I'll go and find him now.”

Then, the Sacred Leader unleashed a heavenly light and flew toward the Fog Plain with Zhang Yunxi.

Azure Lotus scolded him for being a sly old fox before leaving a gold light trail as he chased them.

Only Qin Yundi, Eunuch Gui, and the others were left. They all heaved a sigh of relief.

“Saint Shen Tian is amazing. The Sacred Leader was actually willing to sacrifice his vitality to save him.”

“Master Celestial is Master Celestial, indeed. He is totally safe even after barging into the depths of the Fog Plain alone.”

“Fog City's sudden rescue was indeed due to Master Celestial's involvement. Master Celestial's abilities are really astonishing!”

“Since the Sacred Leader is going personally, His Highness will be safe. Concubine Lan would also be happy if she knew!”

At the Fog Plain's depths…

Shen Tian had already left the mountain valley and came to a leveled ground. A crimson flame was burning in front of him, silently moving with the wind.

That's right, that ball of fire was one of the Nan Ming Li Fire's Origins' fragments, and it was also the last piece that Shen Tian had found.

While the Sacred Leader had been refining the spirit fog the past one day and night, Shen Tian had not rested either. He had completely searched the mountain valley, ensuring that he had not missed any spot.

He had started collecting the Nan Ming Li Fire.

When Sword Venerable Qian Yang had died, his Nan Ming Li Fire's Origins' fragments had been scattered everywhere. Most of the fragments had landed near the mountain valley, so Shen Tian could sense them.

Under the Tinder Sutra energy's guidance, Shen Tian had quickly found the Nan Ming Li Fire's Origins.

Meanwhile, this ball of flame in front of him was the last Nan Ming Li Fire's Origin fragment he could sense.

Shen Tian carefully refined the Nan Ming Li Fire using his Tinder Sutra, and a special form of energy surged throughout his body. He could sense that the fire within him was burning even hotter.

Among the Five Elements, fire corresponded to one's heart, which was the organ that provided blood for the body.

Currently, Shen Tian's heart was being strengthened by the Li Fire, and he could feel that he had become even more powerful than before!

He even had the itch to try battling with a Perfected Immortal!

Of course, only a try that would result in death…

Shen Tian took a wooden box out of his Archeon Sea Ring. Golden bones were within the box. They were extremely hard and emitted ripples of the true Sword Dao.

Shen Tian speculated that these should be Sword Venerable Qian Yang's broken bones, what remained after his death.

Since Shen Tian had obtained most of the Nan Ming Li Fire, he should build a grave for him due to sentiment and reason. Thus, in the process of collecting the Nan Ming Li Fire, he had also collected Sword Venerable Qian Yang's remaining bones.

After digging a hole using the Divine Devouring Vine, he buried that box. Then, Shen Tian found a stone and sliced it into the shape of a long strip. He raised his Lotus Shooting Gun and wrote six big words—Grave of Sword Venerable Qian Yang—on the stone's surface.

Next to the big words, he wrote “—erected by a fated person, Shen Tian” in small size.

I took your Nan Ming Li Fire, but I buried you. Thus, we don't owe each other!

Just when Shen Tian wanted to heave a sigh of relief, he suddenly thought of something.

No! I'm too careless! How could I leave my name? What if Sword Venerable Qian Yang had an enemy and saw this tombstone? By then, wouldn't that enemy think I had inherited Sword Venerable Qian Yang's arts and come to take revenge on me? Wouldn't I have become Zhao Hao's scapegoat? No, no, this is too dangerous!

At that thought, Shen Tian changed his name “Shen Tian” to “Zhao Hao” in the “—erected by a fated person, Shen Tian”.

Yeap, this looks better.

Wait, this is not right either. Aren't I causing trouble for Brother Zhao now?

Shen Tian placed his hand on his chin and looked at the tombstone. He was deeply conflicted.

At that moment, a silver figure suddenly descended from the sky. There was a huge lightning White Tiger avatar behind her, and she was emitting an aura of fury.

“Evil woman! You dare to snatch the mask I gave to my Junior Brother! What did you do to him? Hurry and release my Junior Brother! If not, I'll chase you to the end of the world!”

Just as she finished, this powerful woman had already descended. Her fist, which was as ferocious as a tiger, headed toward Shen Tian!

When she threw the punch, Mixed Divine Lightning surrounded her whole body, and she was like a ferocious tiger pouncing on food.

If she was not Zhang Yunxi, who else could it be!?
