I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 192: No Other Choice, Can’t Endure, Too Hot!

Chapter 192: No Other Choice, Can’t Endure, Too Hot!

After bidding farewell to the masses, which were reluctant for Shen Tian to leave, Shen Tian departed.

What’s worth mentioning was that he had an additional gain—Liang Chen—after saving the Black Mountain City’s people.

Liang Chen just had to hang onto Shen Tian and repay him by becoming his servant as Shen Tian had saved his mother.

Shen Tian was extremely troubled because of that.

Just what could you do for me?

Feeling resigned, Shen Tian pretended to be cold and told Liang Chen to enter the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground. If he could join the sacred ground, that meant he would still be fated with Shen Tian.

To Foundation Establishment cultivators like Liang Chen, it was not simple to head to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground from Black Mountain City. Nevertheless, given Liang Chen’s providence, if he really wanted to go to Divine Firmament, it would not be too dangerous for him.

If Liang Chen could really arrive at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground and join it due to Shen Tian, given his almost red halo and talent, he would be treated as a genius in the sacred ground.

Geniuses were always in demand.

The sacred ground’s prosperity would not be feasible without peerless golden-halo geniuses, such as Zhang Yunxi and Zhang Yunting. Still, it could not do without the mainstay of red-halo geniuses either.

Of course, the more people blessed by providence, the better!

...

Shen Tian left Black Mountain City, flew to the north, following the scene in his memory. After roughly traveling straight for 300 miles, he successfully found a mountain valley. That made him even more certain that the reason he had been lost on his way to Black Mountain City from Big Dipper City was the map—it was too vague!

See? Now that I have a standard map, I found the place accurately!

This was an extremely barren mountain, and other than weeds, almost no living things could be seen. It was as if everything with vitality had been sucked dry!

It was not rare to encounter such a situation in the cultivation world. Plenty of poor cultivators with no Spirit Stones could only resort to setting up a Spirit Qi Gathering Array, which would gather the thin Spirit Qi in the surroundings to allow one to cultivate.

Of course, it was very troublesome to set up the array, and it would destroy the surrounding ecosystem.

At the same time, the effects paled in comparison with Spirit Stones’ efficiency, so the cultivators of major sects would avoid doing such embarrassing things. It would disgrace the secs if others knew.

Nevertheless, as a demon, Supremacy Blood Mosquito had no inhibitions to do so. He had set up the Spirit Qi Gathering Array, gathering the Spirit Qi of an area spanning for tens of miles, to cultivate.

Even so, that was not enough to satisfy his and the Blood God Clone’s consumption during cultivation. Otherwise, Supremacy Blood Mosquito would not have taken a risk in desperation and tried to wipe out Black Mountain City. He had wanted to use human blood to help increase the clone’s cultivation level.

This barren mountain may be outrageously vast, but Shen Tian was not worried as he knew exactly where Supremacy Blood Mosquito had hidden the *Blood God Sutra’*s second page.

Shen Tian used Gun Kinesis Flight and quickly stopped at the hidden valley entrance, his eyes burning with passion.

The mountain was filled with Spirit Qi. Everything in the vicinity was lush green with flowers, whose fragrance pervaded the area—a stark contrast to the barren mountain’s surrounding environment.

This place was evidently where Supremacy Blood Mosquito spent his cultivation sessions.

A simple array formation was still at the mountain valley entrance, emitting a blood-red light.

Shen Tian took a deep breath. His Longyuan Divine Armor appeared on him again, and the five types of lightning energy gathered within his hand.

“70%! Mixed—Lightning—Fist!”

Boom!

The golden lightning ball soared through the sky, and a pillar of light followed behind it. It was like a long golden spear that pierced into this hidden mountain valley with crushing force.

Although the array barrier was extremely tough, it could not be compared to the long spear’s powerful piercing force.

The blood-red light was shattered and scattered in all directions. Shen Tian followed the Mixed Lightning Fist and directly charged into the mountain.

Whoosh!

I’m finally in.

Shen Tian could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Using 70% power of Lightning Fist was not that hard.

He might be a little tired, but he was far more relaxed than using 100% power.

“Although Supremacy Blood Mosquito was a Nascent Soul demon, the power of his array formation was actually this weak.”

Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. People would normally set up array formations that corresponded with one’s strength or even stronger. Thus, if one could directly make a move, why would they still spend the effort to set up the array?

Supremacy Blood Mosquito’s defensive array could at most stop Golden Core Third Refinement Stage cultivators. One had to say that the human race indeed had a unique advantage over other arts, such as creating pills and setting up array formations.

After destroying the array formation at the entrance, Shen Tian walked into the mountain valley. It might be because Supremacy Blood Mosquito had been extremely confident in his array formation that he had not set up anything else in the mountain valley.

Of course, it might also be that there was basically nothing valuable in the mountain valley.

As compared to the rich Celestial Water Grotto-Heaven, the mountain valley in which Supremacy Blood Mosquito cultivated was extremely simple and crude. There was only a small house in the middle of the mountain valley. It was also the Spirit Qi Gathering Array’s focal point, so one could absorb the most Spirit Qi there.

Shen Tian did not walk toward that small house. Instead, he headed to the cliff at the side. He shot the Divine Devouring Vine out of his right hand, and as if a long emerald whip, it pierced into the cliff wall, stirring it up crazily.

Shortly after, deep holes were plowed on that cliff wall, and crimson light shone from within. It was a red page, completely the same in appearance as the Blood God Sutra page Shen Tian had obtained from Supremacy Blood Mosquito.

As Shen Tian stored this piece of Blood God Sutra page, he could not help but heave a sigh of relief.

Immediately after, he used Gun Kinesis Flight and left.

Unexpectedly, he almost lost his way...

Shen Tian finally stopped on a mountain, used his Divine Devouring Vine to burrow into the ground, and created an enclosed Cave Abode about 100 meters deep into the ground.

Don’t ask what if there was no oxygen—cultivators breathed in Spirit Qi!

After setting up a Presence Concealing Array in the surroundings, Shen Tian wore the Phoenix Feather Mask. When he confirmed that nothing would go wrong, he carefully took out the Blood God Sutra’s pages.

The two blood-red pages were placed in front of Shen Tian, looking extremely light. However, that was not the case as each page actually weighed hundreds of kilograms. In addition, their materials’ quality was definitely extraordinary, or else the page would have been unable to block the Sword Master Token’s strike at full strength.

Shen Tian felt that if he could attach these two papers to his chest, they could act as breastplates...

As he circulated his cultivation technique, Shen Tian forced out two drops of blood from his right forefinger. Those two drops of blood dripped onto the two red paper respectively and were instantly absorbed.

Shen Tian suddenly felt as if the whole world was spinning, and the scenery in front of him instantly turned into a boundless sea of blood.

In that sea of blood, Shen Tian felt as if he could see countless living beings floating and sinking.

At the same time, obscure and mysterious incantations of the cultivation technique surged into Shen Tian’s head, deeply engraved into his memory.

Two mystic arts appeared from the *Blood God Sutra’*s two pages, respectively.

The first page of the Blood God Sutra recorded the Great Blood Creation Technique, and its abbreviation was Blood Technique.

Using this mystic art could allow one to use their blood to create a perfectly compatible body with oneself. The aura, core, and everything else were exactly the same as that person’s true body—it just did not have a consciousness.

Meanwhile, its cultivation level depended on how much blood one used—the more blood used, the stronger the body’s cultivation level. At most, it could reach 70% of one’s cultivation level!

Of course, if one was reluctant to use too much blood, they could first create a weaker clone. They could then use other people’s blood to enhance the clone’s strength and make it grow stronger swiftly.

The disadvantage was that a clone that absorbed others’ blood would not be completely compatible. It could at most possess 30% of the cultivator’s strength.

Supremacy Blood Mosquito had planned to let his Blood Mosquito Demon Clone use the people’s blood in Black Mountain City to increase its strength. Or else, his blood alone would not have been enough!

Meanwhile, the second page of the Blood God Sutra recorded the Great Soul Separation Technique, and its abbreviation was Soul Technique.

By using this mystic technique, one could separate a small piece of the cultivator’s soul and place it into the clone formed by the Blood Technique.

Thus, the cultivator would be able to control the clone through their soul fragment. Such a soul was a little like a puppet, and it was called—Blood God’s Son!

The clone created through the Blood God Sutra’s mystic art was fundamentally different from the Soul Manifestation in the Soul Formation stage.

Firstly, the Soul Manifestation of Soul Formation stage was not a pure clone—it was more like Dao’s embodiment.

The number of Dao clones one could manifest depended on how many Daos one was enlightened in.

Meanwhile, the Blood God Sutra did not limit the number of Blood God’s Son clones one could create. As long as one did not fear consuming all of their blood and suffering soul exhaustion, they could continue creating Blood God’s Son non-stop.

Secondly, Dao Soul Manifestations must merge with the Soul Formation cultivators when they reached late-stage, completely becoming one. Only then could one break through to the Tribulation Transcendence stage.

Meanwhile, the Blood God’s Son clones did not have such a restriction, and they could combine or split from the main body at any time. Even after surviving the tribulation and becoming a Sage, one would still be able to use this mystic technique.

Thirdly, the Soul Formation cultivator’s Soul Manifestation was the Dao’s embodiment, so it was vital to the main body. Once it was destroyed, the Soul Formation cultivator’s strength would decrease greatly, and the cultivator’s understanding of that Dao would crumble.

Meanwhile, for the Blood God’s Son, after it was created, the main body would suffer from a lack of blood and a portion of the soul, which resulted in one’s strength decreasing.

Nonetheless, as one continued to cultivate and replenish the lacking blood and soul, the main body’s strength would recover. Therefore, even if the Blood God’s Son clone was killed in the future, it would not really affect the main body’s strength.

In a way, the Blood God’s Son clone was more like a tool.

Finally, the aura of the Soul Formation cultivator’s Soul Manifestation was obviously different. It possessed only a portion of the main body’s aura, so other Soul Formation cultivators could easily differentiate it.

After it was killed, it would also automatically disappear and not leave any corpse.

Meanwhile, the Blood God’s Son clone was different, as it was a body created from the main body’s blood.

After it was killed, it would leave a corpse identical to the main body. Thus, when one encountered danger and was being hunted down, they would totally use the Blood God’s Son clone to attract the attention.

No matter if it self-exploded or risked its life to cover a retreat, it would die a heroic death. The enemy might even praise it—”I respect you for being a man.”

Naturally, the real body would have long hidden in safety. It was as safe as it could get.

Besides the true self, no one would know whether the one that died was a clone!

Extremely safe!

...

,000 years ago, Great Sage Blood River had relied on these two mystic techniques to go wherever and do whatever he wanted in the whole Eastern Wilderness.

He had crazily created Blood God’s Sons and relied on these clones that did not fear death to provoke sacred grounds and flirt with Fairies. He had been extremely arrogant!

Each time powerful human cultivators had made a move, they would think that they had killed Great Sage Blood River.

However, in just a few days, a new Great Sage Blood River would appear once again.

At the time period when he had been his cockiest, he had even dared to sneak into the Sonic Thunder Sacred Ground and steal their 12th Stage Merit Golden Lotus.

Although the clone had failed in the end, it had actually sucked until a great amount of the Merit Golden Lotus essence had been lost. As such, the 12th Stage Merit Golden Lotus had fallen to the 9th Stage, only to recover after thousands of years.

Even so, Great Sage Blood River had still been able to roam around freely outside!

In the end, he had ended up enraging the West Desert Land of Buddha!

All the cultivators had requested for the Supreme Holy Monk, who had comprehended the Karma Dao, to come out of seclusion.

Although forcibly using the Blood God’s Son blood to calculate the place where Great Sage Blood River’s main body had been hiding would severely injure the Supreme Holy Monk’s core, he had not hesitated to do so.

That day, Bodhisattva shed tears, and Buddha was also enraged.

Nine ancient Buddhist Lords had blocked the entire area and trapped Great Sage Blood River within the Buddha Land using their palms. They had not even tried to ask him to repent and be saved and just sent Great Sage Blood River on his way.

Each of them had directly slammed down their palms and smashed Great Sage Blood River into mashed meat.

Thus, from then, Great Sage Blood River’s legend ended there.

This Great Sage gave a perfect example of “No zuo no die[1]”!

...

In conclusion, this mystic technique was still extremely powerful.

As long as one did not offend those superpowers, one could basically get away with anything using the Blood God’s Son clone.

Also, according to the Blood God Sutra’s introduction, there were more than just two pages of the Blood God Sutra.

If one could obtain the other pages and obtain the remaining mystic arts, then within a certain radius, the main body’s soul could even switch between Blood God’s Son clones and the main body freely.

If so, then even if the main body was destroyed, the cultivator’s soul could be resurrected in the Blood God’s Son clone. Thus, one’s ability to survive would increase drastically!

It was a pity that Great Sage Blood River had only obtained the first two pages—even he had not obtained the Blood God Sutra’s remaining pages.

Had he collected them, even if the West Desert Land of Buddha made a move, Great Sage Blood River might not die

“Sigh... It’s still a pity!”

Shen Tian felt the two pages in his hands and suddenly lost interest in them.

Why tell me something that I can’t obtain!?

And it was specifically mentioned at the end of the second page!

Doing such a thing is simply the same as those bast*rd authors that leave their work unfinished!

Shame on them!

“...”

Forget it, happiness consists in contentment!

I just have to increase my providence to reach gold halo and above as soon as possible. I don’t believe the remaining Blood God Sutra will not just obediently fall into my hands!

Shen Tian stopped thinking of other things and started to comprehend the Blood God Sutra.

What was worth mentioning was that Shen Tian discovered his comprehension skills were quite good, so understanding the Blood God Sutra was quite smooth.

Shortly after, he used a drop of blood mixed with Spirit Qi to form a little red man the size of one’s palm.

Not only was this body small, but the aura it emitted was also pitifully weak.

Shen Tian estimated that even if he poured his soul into this small red man, he would at most be able to control it to do things like smashing cockroaches.

Looks like anemia is inevitable.

Shen Tian took a bottle of Nirvana Holy Liquid out of his Archeon Sea Ring and took a deep breath.

I’ll just do it! I have 20 more kiloliters of Nirvana Holy Liquid in my Archeon Sea Ring. I don’t believe I can’t replenish my lost blood!

Shen Tian threw caution to the wind and started drinking big mouthfuls of Nirvana Holy Liquid.

The overabundance of vitality energy exploded within Shen Tian’s body, and he tried his best to absorb it all.

The Nan Ming Li Fire in Shen Tina’s heart seemed to have gotten fuel and started to burn crazily. Thus, his heart rapidly produced blood.

If Supremacy Blood Mosquito witnessed the speed at which the blood was produced, he would most probably doubt himself.

This was just like the fundamental difference between a player who spent money and the other that didn’t.

The whale was just faster, no matter the aspect!

...

As Shen Tian felt the Qi Aura within him burn more vigorously, his body turned extremely hot—it was as if there was a ball of fire burning.

The Hariti Rosary Beads started to vibrate gently, unable to endure such a boiling hot aura.

Jiu’er’s soul controlled the rosary bead and slowly floated to the side. There was no other choice—she couldn’t stand it anymore as it was too hot!
