I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 303: Don’t Speak, Eat It, Sense It

City of Bliss, on the second floor of the Heavenly Music Parlor…

The atmosphere was gloomy in the private room that Er Tongtian and Bi Xuanqing were.

Although Bi Xuanqing had already consumed a large number of healing pills, his face was still extremely pale.

Meanwhile, Er Tongtian’s head was still tilted as Shen Tian had twisted his neck into the wrong position. Thus, he was unable to recover yet.

Frankly speaking, they felt frustrated.

The ocean demons had the home advantage in North Sea.

However, they had still lost to Qi Shaoxuan and Shen Tian. It was a humiliation they could not accept!

That was especially the case for Er Tongtian. He had even used his killing move “Death Spin”, but instead of defeating Shen Tian, he had suffered a crushing defeat.

He had been whipped consecutively on the face, and the marks had yet to disappear!

“Damn it, he’s too despicable!”

Er Tongtian ground his teeth. “If Brother Kun was not in seclusion, he’d definitely humiliate them today!”

Bi Xuanqing’s snake pupils constricted and turned cold. “That Divine Firmament Saint is really looking for death. He even dared to get close to the Mermaid Princess.”

Everyone knew that the Seventh Dragon Prince Ao Wu’s bloodline talent was exceptional amongst North Sea’s prodigies.

However, one’s talent did not represent their strength. Ao Wu was still too young, so he was still far from converting all his potential into his true strength.

Currently, the true strongest prodigy among the prodigies below 500 years old in North Sea was from the Great Void Kun[1] race.

He was the Kun Prince—Kun Ming!

The Great Void Kun race was the strongest race in North Sea. They were an existence that competed with the Dragon race since ancient times.

To a certain extent, it could be said that the individual fighting capability of a Great Void Kun demon was generally higher than that of the Dragon race, and hardly any of their kin was weak.

It was just as compared to the Dragon race, the Great Void Kun race’s fertility was much weaker. An adult Void Kun might not even be able to give birth to a child in 1,000 years.

Unable to increase the overall number of the race was also the main reason the Great Void Kun race was unable to compete with Black Dragon Island for the position of North Sea’s leader.

However, if it was a one-vs-one battle, then those low-ranked Dragons would not be able to rival the Void Kun race at all. They would be completely crushed.

The Great Void Kun race had never given birth to a rare prodigy such as Kun Ming.

In the Chaotic Star Island trial 300 years ago, Kun Ming had already broken through to the Nirvana stage.

Also, he had once fought with Black Dragon Island’s Sixth Dragon Prince, Ao Wu’s brother, during that Chaotic Star Island trial.

It was an internecine outcome—the battle between the 160-year-old Kun Ming and 350-year-old Sixth Dragon Prince was a draw. Thus, Kun Ming’s fame had spread throughout the entire North Sea!

Now that 300 years had passed, no one knew just how frightening Kun Ming’s strength was now. It was unfathomable.

However, the only thing that could be confirmed was that Kun Ming was definitely the strongest existence in this Chaotic Star Island trial.

That’s because the Sixth Dragon Prince had already surpassed 500 years old, so he would not be able to join the trial anymore.

Even if the Sixth Dragon Prince could participate, he might not be Kun Ming’s opponent. When comparing their talents alone, Kun Ming was much stronger.

Er Tongtian scoffed. “Brother Kun has never stopped coveting the Mermaid Princess’ beauty. That human actually dared to walk so close with the princess. He’s courting death.”

Bi Xuanqing said coldly, “Most human prodigies are insolent. He’s dead meat once Brother Kun comes out of seclusion!

“Also, Brother Kun pursuing the Mermaid Princess is not called coveting her beauty, but it’s ’cause heroes love beauties.

“If you said such a thing in front of him, you’d most probably get beaten up again.”

At that moment, a small green snake slithered into Bi Xuanqing’s hand.

The voice of Bi Xuanqing’s subordinate sounded from the small green snake.

“Your Highness, the Divine Firmament Saint has come out of her room.”

Bi Xuanqing revealed an astonished expression. “He came out already? It ended so soon?”

Then, as if he thought of something, Bi Xuanqing chuckled with disdain.

“The Divine Firmament Saint is nothing much! Even if the Mermaid Princess gave you a chance, you are useless!”

Bi Xuanqing silently walked to the window and said in a bantering manner, “Or is he afraid after hearing the news?”

It’s not that simple to sleep with the female that Brother Kun has set his eyes on!

…

Shen Tian did not know what Bi Xuanqing and Er Tongtian were thinking, nor was he interested in knowing.

He only wanted to know how Qi Shaoxuan was.

He was careless and too high just now.

He had forgotten that he had to return the fortuitous opportunity to the original owner if he wanted to share it.

If not, the original owner of the fortuitous opportunity would most likely become unlucky in the scenario Shen Tian kept it for himself.

Back when Shen Tian had obtained the History Of The Great Fire before Qin Gao, the latter had been hung and beaten from unluckily dropping and spoiling a spirit herb.

Also, when Shen Tian had obtained Fang Chang’s Nirvana Holy Liquid, the latter’s Golden Core had nearly shattered.

Now that this Sea God’s Star Tear was in Shen Tian’s hand, who knew how Qi Shaoxuan was, and if he had encountered any indescribably unlucky events?

Shen Tian had a foreboding feeling.

Shen Tian could sense the violent aura within Qi Shaoxuan’s private room as he got closer.

It was obvious something unpleasant had happened in the private room.

Shen Tian directly pushed open the doors without time for consideration. What he saw were Ao Wu and the four princes’ red faces.

Their auras were chaotic. It was as if they were forcibly enduring something. Their expressions were also quite interesting as there were smiles that did not seem like smiles on their faces.

On the other side was the crossed-legged Qi Shaoxuan. He was currently ashamed and full of rage.

A Golden Core with 10 Divine Emblems was floating above his head.

What was worth mentioning was that the Golden Core had cracked and was shining faintly with purple light.

Meanwhile, under the purple light, the head of a baby the size of a human nail was on top of the Golden Core.

That’s right, Qi Shaoxuan was breaking his core to form a new soul!

Qi Shaoxuan had been a Golden Core Tenth Refinement Stage cultivator a long time, so he could attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

He had learned quite a lot from battling with Bi Xuanqing today, and he felt quite pressured. Thus, he had decided not to suppress his cultivation level and break through.

Under normal circumstances, it would not be too difficult to break one’s core and form the soul after a sacred ground’s prodigy reached the peak of the Golden Core stage.

However, Qi Shaoxuan never expected his Golden Core to be too hard!

Normally, the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage was already the Qi Refinement system’s limit. It was very difficult to surpass it.

Although Qi Shaoxuan was able to achieve further and form the Golden Core Tenth Refinement Stage, that made his breakthrough to Nascent Soul Stage become much harder than normal people.

If his soul was stronger than average, then he could easily complete this breakthrough.

However, Qi Shaoxuan’s life had been smooth since young, and he had almost never encountered any setbacks.

Frankly speaking, the strength and toughness of his soul were not particularly outstanding. It could only be counted as above average, thus resulting in such an embarrassing scene. After Qi Shaoxuan’s Golden Core was cracked after much difficulty, his Nascent Soul had… accidentally been stuck after revealing its head.

The Nascent Soul was born from the Golden Core, so after it struggled free from the Golden Core, it would grow larger by quite a bit in a short period of time.

Qi Shaoxuan awkwardly discovered that he was unable to crack his Golden Core completely.

His Nascent Soul’s neck was directly stuck in the crack after sticking out its head. It was unable to go back in or out.

That small Nascent Soul could not help but kick its legs!

…

Humiliating! Such humiliation is unprecedented!

As his life essence had already been transferred from his Golden Core to the Nascent Soul, Qi Shaoxuan’s Golden Core cracking would not result in heavily injuring his Dao. Thus, there was no problem even if his Nascent Soul was temporarily stuck.

However, encountering such a thing when one was breaking through really tested their mental strength, especially since there was a popcorn-eating crowd around him.

He wanted to die after sensing Ao Wu’s and the four princes’ weird gazes.

Even his Nascent Soul’s head had turned larger due to the weird atmosphere, which resulted in it being stuck more deeply.

Erm, its neck was even about to be clamped off by the crack.

Although it might be fine temporarily, it definitely would not be able to last if this continued for a long time.

Not to mention others, Qi Shaoxuan could not even keep the Nascent Soul within his body since it was stuck and unable to come out or go back in.

Qi Shaoxuan did not even want to leave this door with such a Golden Core and Nascent Soul as he also had a sense of shame.

As the Purple Mansion Saint, he was already tough-minded from not suffering a Qi Deviation after encountering such a thing.

“Brother Shen? Why are you back so soon? Do-don’t look!”

Qi Shaoxuan’s mouth twitched. He hurriedly raised his hands. His left hand blocked his Nascent Soul while his right hand blocked his face.

Death in this world could be split into two kinds—really dying and social death.

Well, Qi Shaoxuan had now experienced the second kind.

Ahhh, it’s too embarrassing!

…

Frankly speaking, Shen Tian had always been a kind, gentle, and upright person. He would spread positivity and never gloat over others’ misfortune unless he really could not resist.

Currently, this was such a situation.

He silently turned around, and a layer of thick white spirit fog completely covered Shen Tian’s body. Others could not see his face at all.

Immediately after, devilish sounds of laughter echoed from the spirit fog.

Qi Shaoxuan: (╯°Д°)╯(┻━┻

Since Shen Tian started it, Ao Wu and the other four princes seemed to finally be unable to endure it. They all turned around and convulsed in laughter.

Qi Shaoxuan: (╯°Д°)╯(┻━┻┻━┻┻━┻

After a long while—maybe Shen Tian’s conscience pricked him, or he really could not laugh anymore—he turned around, and the spirit fog around him dispersed.

He looked dead serious without any signs of laughter.

Shen Tian looked at the four princes and Ao Wu, who were still laughing, and scoffed. “You’re too much! How could you still be laughing when Brother Qi is facing such a predicament?”

After finishing, his mouth twitched.

He could not help but want to laugh again.

The white spirit fog was surging around Shen Tian. He felt that he had a hard time trying to resist his laughter.

Qi Shaoxuan looked at his mortal enemy with resentment. “Brother Shen, you’re too much!”

Shen Tian looked at the halo above Qi Shaoxuan’s head. It was originally purplish-gold, but now the purple seemed to have become much lighter.

Shen Tian knew that it should be because he had obtained Qi Shaoxuan’s fortuitous opportunity.

However, the Sea God’s Star Tear seemed to be just a normal fortuitous opportunity to Qi Shaoxuan. Thus, as a whole, its influence on his halo was not too big.

At the same time, the misfortune brought by losing the Sea God’s Star Tear did not seem life-threatening. At least, it was not fatal.

Yeap, from Shen Tian’s point of view, social death was not counted as fatal!

…

Shen Tian silently recorded down in his heart about Qi Shaoxuan’s accident this time. It was precious material for his research of the “providence halo” in the future.

He took out the jade box that Yu Pianxian had given him and threw the Sea God’s Star Tear toward Qi Shaoxuan.

“Brother Qi, stop talking. It’s something good, so eat it and carefully sense it!”

Qi Shaoxuan, “!?”
