I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 181

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The Buddhist Lord's declaration before entering seclusion astounded everyone in the entire Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground. Shen Tian, who was the center of the attention, did not know about it at all.

Presently, he was thinking of what excuse to use to prevent joining the Primordial Battlefield's Trial as he knew his luck was bad, and it was extremely dangerous to go there.

If he still rashly pushed himself to go under such a situation, he could easily die.

However, as the Divine Firmament's Saint, it was unsuitable to reject bringing Divine Firmament's disciples to the trial. It was something the Sacred Leader requested personally, so if he directly refused, the Sacred Leader might stack the deck against him in the future!

How about I use the excuse of receiving internal injuries when I was in the Fog Plain? Should I say I'm still recovering, and it will be inconvenient to go?

The problem was that this excuse was too ridiculous as he had just shown off a few thousand liters of Nirvana Holy Liquid an hour ago. Given that astounding amount of Nirvana Holy Liquid, it would be easy for him to recover even if his four limbs were chopped off!

How about breaking through to the Golden Core stage first in the next 10 days?

That's unsuitable too as it's as unnatural as suddenly mentioning to break up on 19th May1.

Not to mention the Primordial Battlefield only restricted one's cultivation level to be under the Golden Core stage—it was not that only Foundation Establishment cultivators could enter.

For an excuse that might not necessarily succeed, he would be risking his cultivation foundation. Hence, Shen Tian felt that it was not worthwhile.

Shen Tian said reluctantly, “Master, I just entered the sacred ground. My reputation and prestige are still lacking. I'm afraid that if I am to lead all the Junior and Senior Brothers/Sisters for the trial, it will most likely be difficult for them to accept it!”

The Divine Firmament's Sacred Leader replied calmly, “Who dares to refuse to comply? You are the Saint.

“Junior Sister Golden Lotus has been making the Yin-Yang Lightning Explosion Talismans at full speed these days.

“Tomorrow, I will announce a 30% discount on the price of the Lightning Talismans and say that it was all due to you.

“Then, the Foundation Establishment disciples will all have the Lightning Explosion Talismans to protect them. Thus, they will be much safer during the trial. Naturally, they will be grateful to you.”

Speaking till here, the heavenly aura around the Sacred Leader slightly rippled. “Tian'er, I believe in you. This trial is also a chance. I hope you can truly build your prestige. In the future, you still need to bring this huge sacred ground to prosperity!”

After listening to the Sacred Leader's plans, with the tone of a veteran, Shen Tian had no other choice.

The sacred ground has to develop, so I'm giving you some responsibility? What is this deja vu feeling?

Master, as the Hokage… Oh no, as the Sacred Leader, shouldn't you choose someone according to one's strength, reputation, or leadership abilities?

I just entered the sacred ground for a few days! Why do you already want to increase my responsibilities?

Such bias! Do you really not plan to consider your son's feelings? Senior Brother Yunting is your biological son—blood is thicker than water!

Shen Tian felt resigned as he said, “However, the Primordial Battlefield is full of dangers, I am fearful. I have no experience, so if we encounter dangers, it's fine if I die, as it's just me losing my life.

“I'm afraid that other juniors and seniors might perish due to my mistake. Even if I died, I would be too ashamed to face them!”

The heavenly aura around the Sacred Leader fluctuated even more strongly—he never thought that Shen Tian's sense of belonging to the sacred ground was this deep.

It was really Divine Firmament's luck to be able to have such a disciple!

The Sacred Leader said, “You don't need to worry about this at all. I have once calculated that you have the destiny of rising up to great heights. You are blessed by providence. You have now soared to greater heights, and according to your fate, you will be protected by the Heavenly Dao no matter where you go and turn calamities into blessings.

“Thus, the safest course of action for everyone will be to follow you during this trial. If you encounter dangers, I want you to keep yourself safe first.

“Since one's life and death are decreed by fate, every cultivator is already prepared from when they started walking the path of cultivation.

“I know you're kind and compassionate, but everyone has different destinies. As a higher-up, you should have the heart of a superior. Blindly pitying or helping might not be advantageous to the sacred ground's development.”

The Sacred Leader's educational lesson made Shen Tian so confused he wanted to sleep.

He only wanted to ride on the coattail of those blessed by providence by sharing their fortuitous opportunities, then keep a low profile until he achieved Immortal Ascension.

Frankly speaking, things such as becoming the Sacred Leader to lead the sacred ground to prosperity, Shen Tian was really not interested. It was just too mentally taxing!

What is more important is the destiny of rising up to great heights? I have now soared to greater heights, and according to my fate, I will be protected by the Heavenly Dao?

You sure that you're talking about me and not Zhao Hao, who has a Master that just died?

Seeing that Shen Tian was not really interested, the Sacred Leader's heavenly aura rippled.

Suddenly, an image flashed in his mind—a pale blue battle armor.

A bright idea struck the Sacred Leader. “Tian'er, you've become much more powerful now, so you should change your battle armor. How about this, if you agree to lead the disciples in this trial, I'll give you a set of new battle armor. What do you think?”

Although Shen Tian was completely calm and composed, he wanted to laugh.

Why? Did Master rear turtles in the past?

Giving me the Black Tortoise Shield when I just entered the sacred ground, then gifting me the Black Tortoise Helmet when I invented electrolysis… Now that you need me, you plan to give me another set of Black Tortoise Armor?

Of course, Shen Tian only complained in his heart. He was still declining on the surface.

“Master, I definitely do not have such a motive. It's my duty to contribute to our sacred ground—”

Before Shen Tian finished, he saw that a golden battle armor flew out of the Sacred Leader's lightning and heavenly aura. It was shining with incomparable radiance. This battle armor looked relatively impressive as it was surrounded by five-colored lightning, which included white, green, black, red, and yellow. Golden lightning was then created.

On this set of battle armor, the appearance of the five divine beasts' avatars—Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Crimson Phoenix, Black Tortoise, and Mighty Qilin—could be seen clearly.

The design on the battle armor's helmet was a golden Qilin, quite similar to the appearance of the Qilin avatar.

The left armguard was like a dragon's back, and golden dragon scales covered the whole arm.

The right armguard was like tiger stripes, and the gloves were inlaid with knuckles as if they were the fangs of a ferocious tiger.

The combat boots were made by scarlet gold Divine Gold—the design was a Crimson Phoenix burning the sky, extraordinarily gorgeous.

Meanwhile, right in the breastplate's center, it was no longer the shape of a turtle shell, but a gold Yin-Yang Eight Trigrams, mysterious and unfathomable.

If the previous Black Tortoise Shield, Black Tortoise Helmet, and the new set of armor were put into a certain game as skin, then the Black Tortoise Shield and Black Tortoise Helmet would be gifted in the first recharge.

If it really did not work out, then it would be given as a reward for events.

Meanwhile, this whole new battle armor was something that a player would be willing to spend money to buy, even if one had to eat cup noodles for an entire month.

That's right—Shen Tian, who had been tortured by the appearance of his equipment for so long, was moved.

Shen Tian rubbed his hands together. “Master, how powerful are the defensive powers of this set of battle armor? I still have quite the amount of Nirvana Holy Liquid. Can I use Nirvana Holy Liquid in exchange for this battle armor?”

The heavenly aura around the Sacred Leader slightly rippled. “This battle armor is named 'Longyuan Divine Armor' and is most suitable for those with the Yang Divine Lightning Constitution.

“Tian'er, if you wear this set of Divine Armor and activate its defense at full strength, it will be difficult for those below the Soul Formation stage to injure you. At the same time, your battle strength will increase by leaps and bounds.”

There was one more point that the Sacred Leader did not mention—this battle armor was the most handsome and coolest set in the whole Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

He did not even need to remind Shen Tian as he knew that the last point was the most attractive to Shen Tian.

Young talents such as Shen Tian wanted to show off their most impressive techniques, so unless it was a situation that did not allow it, who wouldn't want to wear the most handsome battle armor to enhance the desired effect?

He, Zhang Longyuan, was also once the most handsome man in the whole Eastern Wilderness when he was young!

The Sacred Leader firmly believed that Shen Tian, who was still young, would definitely be unable to reject such a temptation.

Indeed, after knowing that he could not exchange for this set of battle armor using Nirvana Holy Liquid, Shen Tian's expression instantly turned resolute.

He said righteously, “Master, as the Saint of the Divine Firmament, I am obliged to take up the responsibility of a leader.

“I am willing to set a good example for my Junior and Senior Brothers/Sisters and lead them in the trial 10 days later.

“I'll improve the prestige of Divine Firmament and definitely will not let you down!

“Of course, this has nothing to do with something like the battle armor!”

Never mind, I'll just go for the trial. At most, I'll just stay at the outer boundaries and control everyone from afar. I don't believe that accidents can still happen like this!

That's right. I think there was quite the good fortuitous opportunity in the Big Dipper Saint's halo. It is relatively useful.

Before the trial begins, let's go and reap the Big Dipper Saint's benefits first!

Shen Tian wanted to test if stealing others' providence would really result in a calamity for the person!

Since he's not one of us, there's no problem!
