I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 262

Chapter 262 Humiliation, Utter Humiliation!

A mild numbing, aching feeling radiated from Li Canglan's right leg.

But within seconds, all feelings of pain completely disappeared. As a well-experienced Sword Venerable, Li Canglan knew something was wrong. This kind of vine was poisonous, and its venom was clearly of the potent numbing kind. Its effects were very intense.

If he failed to escape from the vine's restraint, he would soon be completely trapped by its numbing effects.

By then, he would no longer have any chance of defending himself.

“Despicable!”

Li Canglan's face darkened slightly, and he swung his sword at those jade-green vines.

Clang!

Those jade-green vines looked slender and delicate, but their tensile strength was far beyond what Li Canglan had imagined.

The sword in Li Canglan's hand was made from supreme-grade Spirit Gold, and he had cultivated with it for numerous years. It was an exceptional divine weapon.

Even so, it failed to hack through that vine. All it could do was leave behind deep slash marks, from which an off-white liquid squirted out.

“Since I can't cut it in one slash, let me give it another!”

The feeling of numbness grew increasingly stronger. Li Canglan used his sword intent to defend against the venom circulating inside his body.

At the same time, he hacked down again on the first mark left behind by his first slash, finally slicing the Divine Devouring Vine in half.

However, before he had time to feel happy, three more vines shot out of the ground.

These three Divine Devouring Vines rapidly wrapped his waist, legs, and arms, instantly binding him tightly.

At the same time, those three vines started to burrow into Li Canglan's mouth.

“What kind of filthy wickedness is this!? What kind of evil demon vine is this!?”

Li Canglan's face had turned extremely pale. He was the Eastern Wilderness' great Sword Venerable and had a reputation to upkeep. He would be utterly humiliated if this filthy vine penetrated his mouth!

“Man and sword become one. Attack!”

A raging flame erupted from Li Canglan's body. He was burning his own Qi and exuding a more powerful than normal strength.

To Li Canglan, a Godfiend cultivator, this was his final trump card. He seldom activated it.

After all, in the entire Eastern Wilderness, only a handful of people were good enough to fight him. In such a state, Li Canglan was powerful beyond imagination!

“Sword, go forth and annihilate these monsters! Clear out all these monstrous illusions!”

Within seconds, a dazzling silver sword light erupted from Li Canglan's body. Cracks soon appeared on those three vines. From this one attack, no one watching could doubt Li Canglan's reputation as a Sword Venerable. His sword heart was powerful beyond belief.

At this point, Li Canglan had already become one with the divine sword in his hand. The Divine Devouring Vine was struggling hard to restrain him due to that burst of power.

Splat!

Li Canglan's face suddenly changed.

His Sword Dao glow faded, and his face turned utterly pale.

“Scoundrel! Beast! Scum! You… You dare to poke me there!”

Rage!

A raging flame surged across Li Canglan, his aura burning even more intensely now.

Streaks of sword energy shot endlessly at the Divine Devouring Vine. But at some point in time, the vines' surface had been smeared with a silvery-white liquid.

Most of the force from the sword dao attacks were diverted away with this layer of silver-white liquid. The Divine Devouring Vine's defense had become twice as strong!

The more Li Canglan hacked, the more excited those vines became.

They even continuously whipped themselves against Li Canglan's body as if writhing in bliss.

Humiliation! Utter humiliation!

Shen Tian's projection has yet to make a single direct move, but you are already floundering from a few Divine Devouring Vines.

Li Canglan was a dominant force across the entire Eastern Wilderness. He had never been so humiliated before. His sword heart was nearly breaking in half!

Unfortunately, all his shame, rage, and struggles were entirely for naught. Now, he was just a mere Golden Body swordsman.

If he hadn't underestimated his opponent and gotten entangled by these Divine Devouring Vines, he might have a chance of overcoming this fellow.

But in this world, there were no “what ifs”. At this point, Li Canglan knew very well that he had no chance of making a comeback.

The Divine Devouring Vines binding him grew increasingly tighter. Even his sword had been taken away by those vines.

As one of the vines pierced into Li Canglan's body, he could clearly feel his life essence and energy quickly draining away.

Li Canglan turned into a corpse in just a few short breaths, everything before his eyes dissolving into nothing.

Huff!

Li Canglan opened his eyes, which were filled with shame and anger. At the same time, there was also an undeniable glint of astonishment and doubt.

“I am not dead?”

The Pagoda Spirit replied, “No need to feel surprised. This is so that all challengers are able to enjoy their battles to the maximum. “At the Divine Firmament Saint's suggestion, only the projection of a challenger enters the battle. But all challengers have full control of their projections.

“Even if you suffer grievous injuries or die in the battle, no need to worry. The only thing damaged is your projection. Your true body will not come to any harm.”

Li Canglan fell into deep thought.

I see…

Luckily, it wasn't my own body earlier, or else…

But even so, that scoundrel dared to shame me in such a despicable manner!

No way I can bear this humiliation!

Li Canglan ground his teeth.

“Pagoda Spirit, is there any way for me to challenge Shen Tian again?”

The Pagoda Spirit's voice rang out. “Middle-aged prodigy, the God of War Pagoda's rules stipulate that opponent matching must be at random. In general, no one is allowed to choose their own opponents.”

Li Canglan said calmly, “I am willing to pay double the price!” Li Canglan refused to cede defeat!

He had underestimated his opponent earlier.

Otherwise, he would not have lost so easily.

If he had a second chance, he just had to be careful of those bizarre vines.

He could definitely beat Shen Tian. He could!

His determination to win burned in his heart. Li Canglan would never allow himself to be defeated in such a humiliating manner. The Pagoda Spirit fell silent for a moment before speaking again in its clear voice. “Sword Venerable Long River, please don't make things difficult for me.”

Don't make things difficult for you? Do you mean you can do it, but just that I am not offering enough?

Li Canglan gave a cold smile. 10,000 Spirit Stones was not a small sum to him, but this concerned Sword Venerable Long River's dignity. In this case, he didn't consider the number of Spirit Stones at all.

“I am willing to pay triple the amount!” Li Canglan said, “If I am defeated again, I will lose 3,000 God of War points to the pagoda How about that?”

The Pagoda Spirit replied, “Well… I am very touched by Sword Venerable Long River's sincerity. But rules are rules, and I cannot—” “Five times! Five times the amount!” Sword Venerable Long River huffed. “This is my limit. If not, just send me back outside!” Sword Venerable Long River already had everything planned out.

If the God of War Pagoda truly refused to budge, he would hide out in the nearby Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

He would then wait for the next time Shen Tian was alone.

He would then suppress his own cultivation level to the Golden Body realm and give that young punk a sound thrashing. Whatever his projection did, Shen Tian could pay for it in real life. It was all very reasonable.

But just as Sword Venerable Long River was prepared to leave the God of War Pagoda, the Pagoda Spirit spoke out. “I am truly touched by your offer. “Alright. Since Sword Venerable Long River is a true sword fiend and such an extraordinary prodigy, I can make an exception for you this one time. “You can battle with Divine Firmament Sain's projection one more time. But… You need to keep this a secret.

“After all, the God of War Pagoda has its own house rules. It is no easy feat for me to make an exception for you.” Li Canglan nodded slowly. “I understand.”

A fresh light shone and slowly formed into a figure on the God of War platform. Let this intense battle begin once again!
