I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 378: Hundreds Of Sage Herbs, Golden Crow Thearch

Chapter 378: Hundreds Of Sage Herbs, Golden Crow Thearch

To be honest, even Shen Tian was rather shocked by these Sage herbs’ battle prowess.

These Sage herbs had been growing in this herb garden for more than 10,000 years. Nearly every single one of them was already perfectly in sync with the garden.

They could use the power of this domain to enhance themselves and exhibit a powerful battle prowess. Many of them were even at the Mighty Prowess realm.

Especially after going underground, those Sage herbs were like fish in water. Meanwhile, the battle prowess of normal demons and human cultivators would be greatly reduced underground, almost to zero.

Even for the small population of earth-attribute cultivators, who were good at techniques like Ground Burrowing and Earth Escape, their battle prowess would still be decreased by more than half underground.

Luckily, Shen Tian’s Divine Devouring Vine was very powerful and gave him the ability to move freely underground.

According to Shen Tian’s calculations, only his long-distance attacks, such as the Lightning Fist and sword techniques, would be constrained underground. His other techniques were not enc.u.mbered at all.

And he believed that even though his battle prowess might have decreased by more than half, he should still be able to handle these Sage herbs!

More importantly, I can burrow faster than them. Haha!

These herbs will never be able to escape from me!

Yeap, it feels great to have the advantage!

Shen Tian morphed into an afterimage and burrowed underground. All the Sage herbs scattered off as if they had seen a ghost.

However, they realized that this human was really fast!

A flash of golden light...

A flash of green light...

This human came charging at them with a big hammer, looking very fierce and aggressive!

No matter what kind of attack they used, vine whips or flying leaf blades, none of those managed to break Shen Tian’s defense.

Even venomous fog was useless. This fellow had the power of the Pure Reincarnation Earth inside him and was immune to all poisons.

Shen Tian was indomitable amongst the Sage herbs. He had his Ocean Divine Hammer in his right hand smashing through their efforts to resist, while his left hand held a bottle of Triple Light Divine Water.

“Everyone, you guys are much older than me and should know when to be reasonable.

“Since you know you can’t defend against me, just close your eyes and accept it!

“Be good herbs and come with me. If you do well in the future and bear me some fruits, I might water you with this Triple Light Divine Water. With some luck, it is possible you can transform into a human.

“If you force me to go rough, my hammer is merciless!”

As Shen Tian spoke, his golden light dazzled in a domineering manner.

Of course, the Sage herbs could not understand his words. Their consciousness was not so developed that they could communicate with humans.

However, they could feel very familiar auras radiating from Shen Tian’s body. The aura of the very pure and intense True Sun Fire and the vibrant Triple Light Divine Water.

The Golden Crow Thearch’s tomb’s Sage herbs were all fire-attribute. These two types of extraordinary items were very attractive to those herbs.

Thus, even though they could feel that this human harbored ill intentions toward them, most of the herbs still lingered around Shen Tian. It was as if they could not bear to flee just like that.

And this resulted in Shen Tian’s bountiful harvest.

Even after having lost half its roots, the Sunny Fire Gra.s.s still fought tooth and nail to escape the fat Taoist priest’s earlier attempts.

But after being whacked by Shen Tian’s hammer, that Sunny Fire Gra.s.s just struggled a little before stopping.

Of course, Shen Tian had dripped one drop of Triple Light Divine Water onto its roots. It might have been due to that.

But the main reason was his personal charm. Yes, personal charm!

...

Shen Tian continued to harvest. The Sunny Fire Gra.s.s was considered rather high-quality amongst all the various Sage herbs, but it was not the top herb.

There were many other Sage herbs just as good as the Sunny Fire Gra.s.s, with some of an even higher quality than it.

Even Shen Tian, who was already quite wealthy, couldn’t help grinning happily.

A bountiful harvest. A really, really bountiful harvest!

A reward was indeed proportionate to the risk. This Golden Crow Thearch’s tomb had dangers everywhere, but the gains that could be found in this place were incomparable.

Sunny Fire Gra.s.s, Red Crow Heart Flowers, Gla.s.s Heart Fruit Tree, 10,000-year-old Lava Sprouts, Snow Soul Flaming Lotus...

One by one, these precious herbs, which more or less could not be found anywhere else in the outside world, were all harvested by Shen Tian.

A sacred ground would treasure any one of these Sage herbs as a precious legacy item.

When needed, these herbs could be used to refine the most astonishing and miraculous pills, which were very useful to Sage pract.i.tioners.

Of course, a really smart sacred ground would never completely use up the whole Sage herb.

They would just extract the minimum amount of juice or just one leaf to make their pills. They would then douse the herb with all sorts of nourishing fertilizers. Killing the chicken to steal the egg was never good for the long-term development of a sect.

This was also why most of the Sage herbs stopped resisting against Shen Tian so strongly, despite knowing he would use them to make pills. They had already detected the aura of the Triple Light Divine Water.

It was better to be under a rich owner than a poor one. They would have a higher chance of getting nourished.

If they went with that sour-smelling fat Taoist priest, what if he went broke one day and had to consume them, roots and all, just to improve his cultivation? What would they do then?

“Are there still any herbs hiding about?”

Shen Tian morphed into a golden light, scanning across the entire underground.

But there were not that many Sage herbs in this garden in the first place. After Shen Tian’s harvest, there were none left.

Shen Tian nearly turned the dirt ground inside out as he went through the whole garden. However, he didn’t find any more Sage herbs.

Although he didn’t find more herbs, he discovered something very special. It was a wondrous Qi Gathering Array that covered the entire garden.

This array formation concentrated more than half of the Spirit Qi in this garden in the core region, where a ma.s.sive divine bird nest rested.

It was clear that this nest was the key protection point when the array formation was good and whole.

But at some unknown point in time, the array formation had been damaged, and the nest was revealed before Shen Tian.

A ma.s.sive reddish-gold egg was in the center of the nest. It was about human height when in one piece but was already broken.

Even so, the eggsh.e.l.ls still exuded an extremely intense heat aura. It was clearly not your usual living creature.

“I knew it! Such a great Thearch couldn’t have possibly held all those Sage herbs in such high regard. He must have planted over 100 Sage herbs in this garden just to nourish this egg?” Shen Tian muttered to himself, “Looks like this bird’s egg is very important to the Golden Crow Thearch! Don’t tell me it’s his 10th son?”

...

Legend had it that the Golden Crow Thearch had nine sons.

Every single of those nine Golden Crow princes possessed the purest divine bird bloodline. They all had an innate ability to control Golden Crow Flames.

A pity that all nine Golden Crow princes had mysteriously died in some tragic event. Since then, the Golden Crow Thearch hadn’t produced any more offspring.

This egg had clearly been recently hatched. It was still warm.

If it was really the Golden Crow Thearch’s offspring, it would become the new Golden Crow Thearch.

Its status in the demon world would be unsurpa.s.sable!
