I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 408: Heavenly Dao Is Unfair!

Chapter 408: Heavenly Dao Is Unfair!

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus sat down cross-legged after consuming the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

Their aura surged and kept on increasing, and the heavenly aura around them turned into a divine rainbow that pierced through the sky.

The entire sky transformed in the blink of an eye.

Clouds gathered like huge waves, which instantly made the atmosphere extremely depressing.

That was the Heavenly Tribulation that would occur when Sages advanced in their cultivation. It was terrifying and could easily wipe out living beings weaker than Sages.

Of course, monstrous geniuses like Shen Tian were an exception.

The Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill’s destiny-changing effect could allow even the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, who had already transcended the tribulation to become a Sage, to have a complete transformation, improving his strength greatly.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s const.i.tution was transforming, and his whole body was shining.

Fearsome Mixed Divine Lightning was generated ceaselessly as if the Lightning Emperor had descended.

Chi!

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader traveled through s.p.a.ce and directly entered the sky.

Endless lightning clouds gathered and completely covered the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. A frightening aura spread throughout the whole area as if wanting to annihilate all the living creatures beneath it.

s.p.a.ce collapsed under the pressure of the lightning clouds, forming fearsome turbulent pockets of void.

Lightning struck endlessly as the lightning laws turned violent as if wanting to strike the person transcending the tribulation into ashes!

The good thing was that the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was transcending the tribulation in the turbulent void, so there was not much influence on the outer world.

Otherwise, given the lightning bolts’ power, they were enough to destroy the entire area within 1,000 miles.

Those Heavenly Tribulation clouds became even thicker and emitted a soul-stirring aura.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was fearless, and the lightning and heavenly aura surrounding him were unleashed to the maximum.

He held the Lightning Celestial Sword in one hand and the golden scripture in the other. There were even the 10 Lightning Beasts behind him, surrounding and protecting him.

Soon, the lightning turned into sharp blades covering the sky, and lightning aura pervaded the whole area, its light blinding. Everyone felt shocked as if facing the power of heaven.

All the prodigies raised their heads and looked toward the sky—they were full of excitement as they saw that majestic figure in the sky.

Their Sacred Leader was actually this powerful.

...

Boom!

The sound of thunder was deafening!

Lightning flashed within the Heavenly Tribulation clouds that were as black as ink.

The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was tens of thousands of feet in length and struck the ground as if wanting to annihilate all living beings!

The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was like a lightning dragon that bathed in bright lightning, bearing its teeth and roaring with fury.

s.p.a.ce was distorted wherever the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning traveled, turning the endless turbulent void unstable. Nothing could escape its power.

Even normal Sages were unable to stop that Heavenly Tribulation Lightning at all—their physical bodies would definitely get destroyed, and they would die under the Heavenly Tribulation if they did.

However, the person who was transcending the tribulation was one of the two prodigies from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, Zhang Longyuan.

He was one of the strongest even amongst all the other Sages.

The heavenly aura surrounding the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader fluctuated vigorously as the 10 Lightning Beasts soared in the sky and collided with the endless lightning bolts.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader waved the Lightning Celestial Sword in his hand lightly, and endless lighting gathered, forming a huge blade made of lightning and piercing through the sky.

That sword seemed to be able to split the Heavenly Tribulation cloud.

Boom!

Lighting blade aura collided with the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning Dragon, and the powerful impact shook the place and even the turbulent void.

Endless lightning struck and suddenly dispersed, scattering in all directions.

It was, in the end, the Heavenly Tribulation of a Sage, so it had boundless power that normal Sages could not block.

Even if the lightning blade aura had dispersed most of the strength and made the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning Dragon shrink to only dozens of feet in length, the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning Dragon continued charging toward the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.

In that instant, the radiating light was as bright as the sun and could even light up the whole place.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was covered by endless Heavenly Tribulation Lightning, and the heavenly aura around him fluctuated to the extreme.

Two different lightning powers kept on entangling each other, and they actually seemed to be merging.

Afterward, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader completely a.s.similated the endless Heavenly Tribulation Lightning, which in turn turned into pure energy and entered his body, allowing his aura to increase exponentially.

Obviously, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had successfully transcended this tribulation and even absorbed a portion of the Heavenly Tribulation’s power.

It was highly beneficial to his cultivation.

According to rumors, Sages would need to undergo Heavenly Tribulation for each advancement in stage. This piece of information was actually true.

The Sages’ Heavenly Tribulation would not only put the Sage’s strength to the test, but it would also improve one’s cultivation level greatly. As long as one could successfully transcend the tribulation, their physical body would be strengthened by the lightning tribulation. Thus, they would undergo a complete transformation.

Both their physical strength and Dharmic power would become much more powerful and purer—it could be said to be an improvement in quality!

That was so for the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. After transcending the tribulation, the heavenly aura surrounding him turned even brighter, making him seem as if he was an Immortal Celestial that had fallen into the mortal world.

However, this was not the end!

Lightning clouds still gathered in the sky, and deafening thunder and blinding lightning could be seen as the lightning clouds acc.u.mulated more and more terrifying power.

The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was ama.s.sing, seemingly able to burst out anytime!

That power was even more terrifying than before!

The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning for each advancement in stage was also the same—its strength would increase with each stage!

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader did not mind. On the contrary, he took the initiative to fly toward the sky.

His body erupted with endless lightning, and the 10 Lightning Beast avatars behind him unleashed lightning and heavenly aura continuously, covering the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader completely. It was as if he had turned into the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning and controlled the Heavenly Tribulation of heaven and earth!

That was the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s forbidden chapter that allowed the cultivator to become one with the lightning tribulation, Decalamity!

The power unleashed by that forbidden art was extremely fearsome in the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s hands!

Endless lightning trembled as if wanting to submit to that majestic figure.

Even the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning in the sky was influenced and fluctuated vigorously, resulting in its aura filling the sky.

Boom!

The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning surged out but was surrounded and attacked by lightning from all directions.

The two different colored flashes of lightning intertwined and continued wearing down each others’ strength.

However, the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning did, in the end, signify the Heavenly Dao, so it was extremely powerful, unable to be blocked by just normal lightning.

In that instant, the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning broke through the other lightning’s encirclement.

The Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was split by endless lightning, so a large portion of its strength was consumed. Thus, even if the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning struck the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, its power would not be as much as before.

In that instant, the power of the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning was completely absorbed by the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, thus increasing his strength again!

The Heavenly Tribulation clouds shook vigorously and circled in the sky for a long time, as if reluctant to leave but had no other choice.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader descended and appeared before everyone.

Everyone went up and congratulated, “Congratulations to Master (Sacred Leader) for advancing!”

Shen Tian could not help but exclaim as he looked at the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader who had improved exponentially.

Master has indeed concealed his real strength!

Even transcending the tribulation is par for the course for him.

I feel really secure with such a Master as my backing!

The others were also overjoyed as the more powerful the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was, the better it was for the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

Currently, among the top five Divine Firmament prodigies, two of them were the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s offspring, while the other three were his personal disciples.

Therefore, everyone was delighted to see the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s increase in strength!

The heavenly aura surrounding the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader shone brightly. He spoke calmly. “It’s all due to Tian’er’s Sky-Mending Pill.”

If it was not for the effects of the pill that allowed the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s const.i.tution to be enhanced and his cultivation level increased, it would not be that simple for him to survive the tribulation.

Since it was a Sage Heavenly Tribulation, and even two continuous ones, it was enough to wipe out most Sages.

However, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader used the power of the Sky-Mending Pill to undergo an extraordinary transformation, and even his future cultivation would be more stable.

If he continued cultivating this way, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had the confidence of becoming a Thearch!

As expected of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, which can help one change one’s destiny!

Hehehehehe!

The vigorous vibration of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura proved how unsettled he was.

...

“Argh! I’m going to break through too!” shouted Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus suddenly.

He flew into the sky while leaving a gold light trail behind him!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had also absorbed the Sky-Mending Pill, so his cultivation level increased greatly.

Even the golden light on the surface of his body turned even brighter, and the aura around him became denser.

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had also reached the bottleneck in this instant and was about to transcend the tribulation of a Sage!

In that instant, everyone’s attention was attracted to him.

Even The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader stared straight at Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

He also wanted to see what his Senior Brother could achieve after consuming the Sky-Mending Pill!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus radiated golden light like the sun and pointed his golden staff straight at the sky, setting off how majestic his body was.

It was as if he was saying, “I’m going to dominate the heavens!”

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus continued absorbing the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill’s medicinal essence, which made his aura’s strength increase explosively.

Upon sensing his const.i.tution’s enhancement and increase in cultivation level, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ confidence went through the roof, and he shouted to the sky, “If I was not born, then there would be no hope for the Dao, just like endless dark days! Now, I will use my staff to prove my Dao and to defeat the Sage Heavenly Tribulation!”

His bold aura surged toward the sky, intimidating even the heavens.

The Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s First Senior Brother, who loved showing off, was back!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was imposing with his back straightened and chest held high toward the sky!

I feel that I’ve regained my confidence after eating this pill! How could just a trivial tribulation stop me?

His staff shot out golden light, which turned into a golden rainbow and pierced straight into the sky as if wanting to stir up the clouds.

In that instant, the Heavenly Tribulation clouds in the sky gathered, and Heavenly Tribulation Lightning could be seen yet again!

But that was not all!

As if being interrupted by Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ attack, those Heavenly Tribulation clouds that had yet to disperse after the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s Heavenly Tribulation were also drawn.

In that instant, the Heavenly Tribulation cloud became even denser.

One could imagine that the power of two Heavenly Tribulations was even more fearsome than when the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was transcending the tribulation!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was stunned, and he opened his eyes widely.

F*ck! It can’t be!?

No one expected that those two Heavenly Tribulations would merge together.

That made the strength of Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ Heavenly Tribulation to increase by two times!

“So what if it’s two times the Heavenly Tribulation? I’ll use my staff to smash through the Heavenly Tribulation! Whoever blocks me shall die!”

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus gulped down his saliva and smiled boldly while putting up a front before heading toward the Heavenly Tribulation fearlessly!

He still had to prove himself no matter how frightening the Heavenly Tribulation was!

Since all his juniors were present, he still had his reputation and dignity to uphold!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus radiated golden light brightly, and an endless heavenly aura was created, covering the whole sky!

He wanted to fight with the Heavenly Tribulation himself!

The surrounding Divine Firmament disciples were all touched and astounded as they witnessed that scene!

The eyes of Fang Chang, Zhao Hao, and the others were even filled with admiration, and they could not help but exclaim.

“Martial Uncle is so strong! Is this his true strength!?”

“The First Senior Brother of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground in the past? He actually possessed the strength to go against heaven!”

“I, Fang Chang, might have really misunderstood Martial Uncle in the past! My forbearance pales in comparison to Martial Uncle Azure Lotus!”

“...”

Only Shen Tian had a weird expression.

Is it really like that? Something seems wrong!

Shen Tian’s eyes shone brightly as he activated his Connate Heavenly Dao Eye. Even with the heavenly aura enveloping Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus, Shen Tian could still see what was happening in the sky.

Not long after, Shen Tian’s mouth twitched as he sighed. “Just why? Martial Uncle, you just need to peacefully survive through the tribulation, so why must you try to show off?”

In Shen Tian’s memory, those that tried showing off in front of the Heavenly Tribulation had all died!

Such as a certain vine...

Fearsome Heavenly Tribulation clouds gathered in the sky, and bright golden Heavenly Tribulation Lightning could be seen flashing within, creating an appalling atmosphere that made others frightened.

That was the terrifying Sage Heavenly Tribulation. Originally, such a tribulation could not be underestimated, and Sages would need to use their full strength to cope with it.

Not to mention this was an unparalleled Heavenly Tribulation formed from two Heavenly Tribulations.

Since ancient times, only Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus might have encountered such a level of Heavenly Tribulation.

Even Sages would not easily transcend the tribulation.

Therefore, the chance of two Sages transcending the tribulation in the same place and similar time was extremely low.

Even if there was, most Sages would wait until the other’s Heavenly Tribulation clouds dispersed before transcending the tribulation. After all, undergoing the tribulation was not child’s play, and one might lose their lives with any misstep!

It was a pity that Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had only thought of showing off, so he had forgotten such a thing, resulting in the two Heavenly Tribulations merging as one.

His luck was simply beyond words!

Such a heroic deed, fearlessly sacrificing his life to teach others a lesson regarding Tribulation Transcendence—he was destined to be recorded and leave his name in history!

It might even cause a mighty uproar in the five regions and make others exclaim, “Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus, a model for all Sages with himself as a counterexample, warning all cultivators to be humble and respectful when transcending tribulations, definitely don’t show off!”

Even if he wanted to show off, he should not do so in front of others’ Heavenly Tribulation!

Otherwise, the consequences would be dire!

...

Heavenly Tribulation clouds gathered crazily as if ama.s.sing endless power and could erupt at any moment.

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus took a deep breath and shouted toward the Heavenly Tribulation, “Bring it on if you dare. I’m not afraid of you!”

There was already no room for Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus to retreat, so it was better to just face the Heavenly Tribulation head-on!

As if they had heard Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ taunt, the clouds turned even darker, and their aura became even stronger!

Boom!

Golden divine lightning struck and formed a golden flying horse which galloped toward Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was stunned. “It really dares!? See how I tear you apart!”

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus waved his golden staff, unleashing an overwhelming aura!

A power that could crush mountains and rivers was unleashed.

His golden staff suddenly grew larger and smashed that golden flying horse into pieces, and lightning scattered in all directions!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was stunned before laughing heartily.

“That’s it? The Heavenly Tribulation’s power is just that?

“It’s just so-so! As expected, my staff is more powerful!”

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus, who was originally on tenterhooks, instantly relaxed.

Given his physique and the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, both his Qi Refinement and G.o.dfiend cultivation levels had increased greatly.

That was the reason Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was able to easily smash apart the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning!

However, how was it possible for the Sage Heavenly Tribulation to be this simple? And not to mention the fact that it was a combination of two Heavenly Tribulations?

Boom!

Another loud explosion echoed!

Lightning could be seen flashing in the Heavenly Tribulation clouds, and another three bright golden bolts of Heavenly Tribulation Lightning struck. They formed bulls that charged toward Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

The aura of three lightning bulls was so astonishing that it distorted the surrounding s.p.a.ce!

The bulls were unstoppable and could crush everything standing in their path!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ pupils constricted, and his tone became serious.

“Again? You think I can’t block three mere bulls? There are also three of me. Let’s go!”

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus roared and activated his peerless technique Three Pure Ones in One Breath. His aura suddenly increased, and the laws within him then created three clones of himself.

Teenage Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus and middle-aged Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus both walked out of Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ shadow. The three of them stood in a row as they faced the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning.

The three Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotuses all had the strength of a Sage, so it was not difficult for them to block the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning.

Boom!

Another loud explosion resounded!

Even though the three bulls’ lightning aura was fearsome, they were still destroyed by the three Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotuses!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’s confidence inflated rapidly, and he roared, “Feel free to use all your strength! You can help me warm up!”

I thought that the Heavenly Tribulation was very frightening...

But that’s all? That’s its full strength?

Too weak!

If I had known earlier, then I would not have prepared beforehand and allowed my Martial Nephews and Nieces to see how talented and mighty I am!

Boom, boom, boom!

As if being enraged, the Heavenly Tribulation clouds burst out in blinding light, which could wipe out even the whole heaven and earth and turn it into ruins!

In that instant, the sky split apart, and countless golden bolts of Heavenly Tribulation Lightning gushed out, forming 10 Lightning Beasts that charged toward Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus.

A portion of the golden Heavenly Tribulation Lightning turned into a dragon, which roared toward the sky, whipping its large tail to smash through endless s.p.a.ce and toward Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

Some turned into a White Tiger, waving their huge claws that even tore apart the laws of heaven and earth, slashing toward Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

There was also Crimson Phoenix, Mighty Qilin, and Black Tortoise...

An endless stream of terrifying Heavenly Tribulation Lightning overturned the whole sky and charged toward Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus!

The jaws of the three Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotuses instantly dropped, and their pupils widened.

“WTF!? Ten against three? You have no martial ethic!” roared the trio.

Boom!

At that instant, lightning struck, and lightning snakes danced, filling the entire sky with an endless sea of lightning!

Endless bolts of lightning instantly covered the three Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotuses!

“F*ck, you dare to strike me? I’m going to go all out!

“No! You f*cking lightning dragon! Where are you attacking!?

“Ah! You can’t strike there!

“Arh!

“Junior Brother, save me!

“Ahhhh!

“I won’t show off anymore!

“Ah!

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotuses’ miserable wails resounded throughout the whole place!

...

After a while, the Heavenly Tribulation finally unleashed all its power and stopped.

The Heavenly Tribulation clouds dispersed vividly, looking just like a winner going away with swagger and even smugness.

Meanwhile, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus also slowly floated down from the sky.

His whole body was convulsing, and golden lightning could be seen flowing in his body. His whole body and even his beard and hair were burnt black.

The old Taoist priest staggered as he walked toward everyone.

Everyone shivered as they looked at him.

Didn’t Martial Uncle look energetic before? Just what happened for him to turn into this?

Shen Tian could not bear the sight and asked, “Martial Uncle, are you alright?”

Shen Tian had witnessed how miserable Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was as the Heavenly Tribulation was tormenting him.

The angered Heavenly Tribulation was brutal and inhumane, tormenting Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus until near the point of death.

It was fortunate that the old Taoist priest had a strong body, and under the enhancement of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill, he barely made it through.

Otherwise, Shen Tian might not even have a Martial Uncle anymore.

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus was still reluctant to admit his mistake, so he said, “Just that? Of course I’m fine! It’s only because I wanted the Heavenly Tribulation Lightning to strengthen my body. Otherwise, how could the Heavenly Tribulation hurt me?”

He was stubborn to admit his mistake, but he could not help but complain in his heart, F*ck, the Sage Heavenly Tribulation is too ruthless! It really did not give me any face at all. If not for my stable foundation, I might not even have been able to last through it!

...

Boom!

At that time, a clap of thunder echoed, while endless Heavenly Tribulation clouds surged as if they were going to gather once again.

Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus shrunk his body and hurriedly kept quiet, not daring to talk big anymore.

Well, I shouldn’t act rashly...

Although he was in a tragic state, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus had also benefited greatly. His physical body became even more crystal clear, and golden light flowed within it, containing powerful and peerless power.

That made Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus slightly comforted.

At least, I was not struck for nothing!

But why was it so simple for Junior Brother to transcend the tribulation but so difficult for me?

Heavenly Dao, oh Heavenly Dao, you are so unfair!
