I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 346

Meanwhile, at North Sea…

Water-resistant array formations covered the huge Divine Firmament Flying Vessel to travel fast in the sea.

On the flying vessel's deck, spirit spring water was boiling in the teapot, which was as large as a water vat. Bubbles kept surging, and the steam emitted from the teapot made the surrounding disciples gulp down their saliva.

It could be said that just the spirit spring water alone contained an abundance of Spirit Qi, quite a temptation for normal cultivators.

Not to mention Shen Tian was holding an Enlightenment tea leaf in his hand. It was a treasure that could not be bought even with money!

On the flying vessel's second level, the elders' expressions instantly changed.

Originally, their dignity restrained them, and they were pretending to be cold as just the spirit spring water alone was unable to move them.

However, at this instant, they were full of regrets.

That was the Enlightenment tea leaf, a supreme treasure that even a Heavenly Venerable or Sage would greatly benefit from if they drank a cup.

You're not only using the water tank to brew the tea, but you even want to give those Golden Core or even Foundation Establishment brats to drink? How much could they be enlightened even after drinking it?

The enlightenment tea was most effective for increasing a cultivator's aptitude for enlightenment. Meanwhile, the requirements for enlightenment of laws would only get higher once one reached Nascent Soul, Soul Formation, and the stages above.

If those Enlightenment tea leaves were given to the elders, they would definitely improve greatly and break through to a higher level.

As for those disciples, they could completely use other more ordinary pills to assist them in their cultivation. The effects would be the same.

It was too much of a waste for them to drink the enlightenment tea!

Had their disciples been so wasteful, those elders would definitely smack the back of their disciples' heads and teach them a lesson.

However, the one doing so was the Divine Firmament Saint, Shen Tian. Thus, those elders did not dare to act rashly. His master, the Sacred Leader, was still present!

Also, it seemed as if the Sacred Leader had no intention of stopping Shen Tian. The lightning and heavenly aura around him was gently fluctuating, but his emotions could not be perceived.

The Sacred Leader's attitude was unknown, so the elders were quite conflicted.

They would regret deeply if they just let Shen Tian distribute the tea to the disciples. However, if they were to run downstairs and snatch those disciples' tea, they could not leave their dignity behind.

It was not like every Heavenly Venerable was the same as Azure Lotus.

Currently, all the Divine Firmament elders were hoping for a person to make the first move. As long as someone ran downstairs to get the enlightenment tea, they would follow behind that person.

As such, they would not lose their dignity and would obtain the enlightenment tea!

A pity that all the elders on the second level were looking at each other in embarrassment. No one wanted to be the first!

Their disciples were all downstairs, so if they saw their masters running downstairs to snatch the tea, it would be too much of a humiliation.

It would simply be their social death!

Shen Tian finally poured five purple Enlightenment tea leaves surrounded by nomological light into the teapot, and they were immersed within the boiling spirit spring water.

The Enlightenment tea leaves quickly released an extremely rich fragrance after being soaked in the water—even the illusions of a Pixiu[1], a Taowu[2], a Soaring Snake, lightning, etc., appeared on top of the teapot.

Radiant illusions filled up more than half of the flying vessel while the tempting tea fragrance wafted out.

The elders on the flying vessel's second level were already salivating.

Such a large tank of enlightenment tea, keep a cup for me!

Or how about I just throw away my dignity today?

At that moment, an unexpected person arrived.

An old Taoist priest suddenly jumped down from the flying vessel's third level. He wore a bright and amiable smile as he looked straight at that teapot.

“Martial Nephew, why do I feel like your enlightenment tea is sour?”

Shen Tian was stunned.

Sour!? Are you joking with me? Even if these tea leaves have yet to completely mature, they're definitely supreme treasures, okay?

Shen Tian was caught between laughter and tears.

“You must be joking, Martial Uncle Azure Lotus. How could this enlightenment tea be sour?”

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus shook his head firmly.

“It's definitely sour. I can smell it. Is it overdue?

“If there's a problem with the enlightenment tea, we might suffer from Qi Deviation after drinking it. We cannot take the risk.”

Just as he spoke, Azure Lotus walked to that huge teapot and took an extrbig bowl, the size of one's head, out of his storage ring.

“Let me have a taste first. If it's really overdue, then let me suffer from Qi Deviation! All of you are the sacred ground's future hope, so you cannot meet with any mishaps.”

After saying that, Azure Lotus directly scooped one bowl and drank it.

Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp!

“There's no problem with the taste. However, the power of laws seems to be incomplete, and it feels kind of weird. I have to try another bowl to truly sense it.”

Gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp, gulp!

Shen Tian, “…”

The disciples, “…”

The various elders, “…”

Damn, damn, damn!

Too shameless. He's just too shameless!

The numerous elders on the second level revealed a smile of disdain.

Azure Lotus is just too thick-skinned!

You actually thought of such a crude excuse to snatch the disciples' tea… You're nothing like what an elder should be!

The elders snorted before jumping down to the deck one after the other, stopping Azure Lotus from doing such shameful acts.

“Senior Brother Azure Lotus, it's not like you know how to make pills. How could you taste whether this enlightenment tea is good or bad? You're simply wasting such precious enlightenment tea. Let me take such a risk!”

“Are you worthy? Besides Martial Niece White Lotus, I'm the best at concocting pills, so I can taste this enlightenment tea's quality with just a sip.”

“Martial Uncle, you're already getting old, and your health is deteriorating. What if something really happens to you after drinking it? Let me do it!”

Upon seeing the elders fight over the tea, the numerous Divine Firmament disciples on the deck looked at each other awkwardly.

Cough, cough…

Did Master really come downstairs to test whether there's anything wrong with the tea?

We don't know, and we don't dare to ask either!

However, the only thing that could be confirmed was that Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus could be more confident in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground in the future. That was because everyone was currently acting like Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

“Don't crowd together! Remember your manners!”

At that moment, the Sacred Leader's cold voice reverberated throughout the flying vessel.

“There's nothing wrong with the enlightenment tea, so you don't need to make such a fuss.”

Azure Lotus was still drinking the enlightenment tea as he replied, “Junior Brother, how do you know that there's no problem with the enlightenment tea? We must be responsible for our disciples' safety!”

The lightning and heavenly aura around the Sacred Leader vibrated vigorously, and the golden lightning directly turned into a huge hand that pulled Azure Lotus back to the third level.

“Tian'er obtained quite the number of Enlightenment tea leaves in the Chaotic Star Island domain. He has already informed me about it.”

The Sacred Leader then took out a light silver tea leaf.

“He told me that the best Enlightenment tea leaves would be for the elders. I'm brewing tea on the third floor, so if you don't want to be left out, come up!”

As he spoke, the lightning and heavenly aura around him swayed even more vigorously.

A silver-colored enlightenment tea leaf was in his hand!

The sight of the tea leaf in the Sacred Leader's hand completely astounded the Heavenly Venerable elders.

Damn, damn, damn!

There's really such a grade of enlightenment tea in the five regions?

The Saint actually found such supreme treasure in the Chaotic Star Island domain and even handed it over to the sect!?

Just how awesome is our Saint? With such a Saint in our sect, there's no need to worry about being able to dominate over the five regions in the future!

It's decided! He'll be the next Sacred Leader!

I'll slap whoever dares to oppose the Saint from succeeding the Sacred Leader position!

Swoosh!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!

Divine light flashed, and the elders flew back upstairs one after the other, returning to their “calm and composed” demeanors.

“I tried a sip of the enlightenment tea just now, and there's indeed nothing wrong with it. Although it is not of much use to us, it's greatly beneficial to all of you in increasing your cultivation levels.”

“The Saint is generous enough to give the tea to everyone, so you must seize the opportunity to understand the laws and strive to improve. You must not let down the Saint.”

“Today, the Saint has gifted you enlightenment tea, so if you have the chance in the future, you must support the Saint to defend our sacred ground's dignity. You must keep this in mind.”

“First Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, have you finished speaking? The Sacred Leader is already starting to brew the tea, so if you don't come in now, then Azure Lotus will drink it all!”

“F*ck! Wait for me!”

“Keep a cup for me, or else I'll use my Lightning Fist to strike you to death!”

Swoosh!

All the elders on the deck disappeared.

Fang Chang and Zhang Yunting were rendered speechless. They were ashamed as they gazed at each other.

Were they still the elders that they respected in the past? They felt that those elders were simply old shameless foggies.

As for Zhang Yunxi, she was still staring at Shen Tian. Her eyes, which were cold whenever looking at anyone, were currently as warm as autumn waters.

She slowly walked beside Shen Tian before smiling and saying, “Junior Brother, your cultivation level improved greatly again after your trip to North Sea. Where's that Dragon Lady now? Why is she not with Junior Brother?”

Shen Tian smiled and said as he brewed the Enlightenment tea again, “Sister Bing is in seclusion in Black Dragon Island. She seems to be preparing to recover her cultivation level.

“Senior Sister, if you're interested, I can tell you about it in detail later in the night when I have time. I could also exclusively brew a pot of tea for you to drink too.”

Brew tea for me to drink? Exclusively!?

Zhang Yunxi was momentarily stunned, and her face turned red.

So is Junior Brother asking me out late at night to drink tea and confide in each other under the moon?

Zhang Yunxi nodded slowly. “I'm naturally interested in what Junior Brother had experienced this half a year during the tri—”

Before Zhang Yunxi could finish, she was interrupted by an excited voice.

“Senior Brother Saint, Senior Brother Saint, you've returned?”

Duang, duang, duang!

The deck shook vigorously as a huge iron puppet carrying an iron rod carved with mysterious patterns ran toward Shen Tian.

Silver iron balls the size of a human's head were tied on the iron puppet's waist, shining coldly under the light.

Rumble!

The iron puppet's head gradually opened, and a handsome face was revealed. He had golden hair, which shone brightly under sunlight, enhancing further his gorgeous looks.

This was a peculiar handsome man. The only thing strange about him was that he was lacking masculine features. One could say he was slightly charming.

There was a stark contrast between his thin, delicate body and the huge hard, iron battle armor.

It was strange yet harmonious…

This man was staring straight at Shen Tian, his eyes full of excitement and fanaticism.

“Senior Brother, Senior Brother, I was in seclusion just now, researching how to improve the mecha. I immediately came to find you once I heard that you returned!

“I have many things that I don't know, so I wanted to ask you regarding the mecha! Senior Brother, do you have time? Please teach me!”

Zhang Yunxi, “!”

Damn it! He actually interrupted my conversation with Junior Brother!

She glared at Qin Yundi coldly, but it was a shame that Qin Yundi currently only had eyes for Shen Tian. Thus, he did not notice the killing intent his Senior Sister exuded.

Duang, duang, duang!

The whole deck shook as the huge mecha moved closer to Shen Tian and sat down.

Shen Tian looked at the mecha underneath Qin Yundi, dumbstruck.

Who would have thought that he would actually create a mecha? It was only a joke when I told him to combine the art of explosion and puppetry.

Also, it looks quite cold!

It could completely satisfy all the mechfigurine fantasies an otaku might have!

Shen Tian gently patted this mecha before smiling and saying, “Qi Yundi, you're indeed a genius!”

Qin Yundi's handsome face revealed an embarrassed smile. “You're flattering me. I'm too dumb as compared to Senior Brother.”

Shen Tian smiled and said, “You must be tired from being in seclusion for so long. Come, drink a cup of enlightenment tea and take a rest. We can talk about the mecha later when we brew a pot of tea!”

Zhang Yunxi, “!?”

What is this situation? I came first!

Zhang Yunxi stared straight at Shen Tian.

“Junior Brother, didn't you say that you would chat with me later in the night while brewing tea?”

Eh? Did I?

Shen Tian was taken aback. He scratched his back and smiled. “I was too excited after seeing this mecha, so how about the three of us enjoy tea later? I still have some silver tea leaves.”

Those around Shen Tian were all supreme prodigies, so they were worthy of the silver tea leaves that Shen Tian had hidden.

The three of us?

It's no longer just the two of us?

Zhang Yunxi's mouth twitched as she looked at Qin Yundi, who was sitting beside Shen Tian.

This cold iron metal is more important to Junior Brother than spending time with me alone?

I want to destroy this so-called mecha!

Zhang Yunxi's negative emotions: +66,666

After drinking a cup of enlightenment tea, Qin Yundi's entire body radiated purple light, especially his head. It looked as if his golden hair had turned purplish-gold. He also gave off an aura of wisdom.

He seemed to have figured out something and looked at Shen Tian in admiration.

“I understand! I understand now that technique bottleneck!

“Senior Brother, your enlightenment tea is just too amazing. After just a cup of tea, I had an epiphany regarding the question that I could not solve perfectly, even after contemplating it for a few months.

“Miraculous! It's just too awesome! I feel like inspirations are filling up my mind and colliding within me! No, I cannot waste this. I'll enter seclusion again!”

Duang, duang, duang!

That huge mecha stood up again, and Qin Yundi ran toward the seclusion room.

“Senior Brother, I'll come and find you later!”

Shen Tian could not help but laugh upon seeing Qin Yundi's departing figure.

“He actually invented a mecha!”

Every guy had a romantic mecha dream and cultivation dream of riding a flying sword.

Shen Tian wanted to see just how far Qin Yundi could go if he gave the latter enough support.

Yeap, I could give some enlightenment tea to Qin Yundi in the future.

Since it's mentally taxing for a researcher, he needs to drink more tea for nourishment!

The enlightenment tea in the teapot was still brewing. The boiling spirit spring water had also absorbed a sufficient amount of the tea leaves' essence.

Shen Tian ordered Shopkeeper Song, Liu Taiyi, and the others to distribute a cup of enlightenment tea to each disciple on the flying vessel.

In that instant, every Divine Firmament disciple's body radiated purple light. Those that had originally encountered bottlenecks were now rapidly breaking through.

Almost all of the disciples' understanding of their cultivation techniques and battle arts were increasing at full speed. Many of them actually broke through directly.

Zap!

All colors of lightning blinded everyone's eyes!

A radiant Golden Core appeared above a true disciple's head and rotated slowly, his aura soaring!

He had broken through!

He was on the verge of tears as he bowed toward Shen Tian.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Saint, for the tea. I am forever indebted to you!”

He was not alone!

Many lucky fellows simultaneously broke through with that disciple. They were all people who had been stuck at a bottleneck or had mental shackles, thus being unable to break through for a long time.

Their minds were cleared after drinking a cup of enlightenment tea, and they directly broke through to the next stage. There were even some that broke through multiple times.

In the path of cultivation, stopping others from ascending was akin to killing their parents, while helping others to break through was a favor tantamount to giving somebody a new lease of life.

Currently, every Divine Firmament disciple was expressing gratitude sincerely.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Saint, for the tea. We are forever indebted to you!”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Saint, for the tea. We are forever indebted to you!”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Saint, for the tea. We are forever indebted to you!”

The voices of gratitude were deafening and sincere.

The flying vessel flew through the sky, but the rich enlightenment tea fragrance stayed for a long time.

Even Eunuch Gui could not help but reveal a smile of relief under such a warm atmosphere.

Who could have expected that His Highness was the forgotten 13th Prince of the Country of Fire and was viewed as an ominous star one year ago?

Now just one year has passed, and everything has changed. Not only did His Highness become the Divine Firmament Saint, but even the whole five regions are full of his legendary feats.

Numerous peerlessly talented ladies from various sacred grounds and demon races are also flocking around His Highness. Each of them is an even more gorgeous beauty than the other.

Even if I die now after personally witnessing such a scene, I'll have no regrets!

Shen Tian smiled as he walked toward Eunuch Gui. “Uncle Gui, this is your tea.”

Eunuch Gui's eyes turned slightly red as he took the teacup from Shen Tian. He looked toward the distance in the east direction, where the Country of Fire was.

His Highness has finally grown up, and the heavens have finally blessed him. The sweet days have come after the bitter days are gone. His Highness also has so many Junior and Senior Brothers/Sisters that sincerely support him.

Concubine Lan, if you knew about this, then you'd definitely be happy and be able to rest in peace.
