I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 422: Middle Ground VS Eastern Wilderness, Battle Of The Prodigies!

Chapter 422: Middle Ground VS Eastern Wilderness, Battle Of The Prodigies!

The four princes of the North, South, East, and West were held in the highest esteem amongst the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty royalty. They were the biological brothers of the current Emperor Shi.

The South and North Princes were considered amongst the top pract.i.tioners even in the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty.

They were the two eldest sons who were from the direct family line. As a result, they possessed the elite royal bloodline and had very powerful innate talent.

Before Shi Tianzi had been born, these two had been amongst the top of their generation when they were young, dominating all their peers.

They had once been touted as the double stars of the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty and possessed the potential of a Thearch!

Their reputation was only subdued after the birth of Shi Tianzi.

However, there was no doubt about their powers. They definitely belonged to the top-tier level of prodigies.

The appearance of the South and North princes was major pressure on the other prodigies from Eastern Wilderness.

The Seventh Divine Firmament Saint cupped his fists. “We already booked this Golden Phoenix room. Prince, I hope you won’t try to interfere!”

There was no way the presence of these two princes could be ignored. Their powers were high to the extreme and nearly at the Soul Formation stage.

If they really got into a fight, the other Eastern Wilderness prodigies were not confident of holding their own at all.

The North Prince snorted. “So what if you have already booked this room? Just cancel it. Whatever I want, no one else shall have it!”

The North Prince had always been very overbearing. Given his power and status, not many people dared to oppose him!

A staff member hurried forward. “Saint, can you please give in and just cancel your booking? You cannot afford to provoke these two princes!”

To be able to flourish Sky Saint City, the Copper Sparrow Pavilion had a very strong backing of their own. Even so, they did not wish to offend these two elite princes. The status of the royal house in the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty was unsurpa.s.sable.

It was not wise to offend them over a mere room.

The Sky Tripod Saint sneered. “Get lost if you know what’s good for you. I need the Golden Phoenix room to host Princess Linglong. Who are you to interfere?”

The Sky Tripod prodigies had always looked down upon the prodigies from Eastern Wilderness. They wouldn’t give up on this opportunity to show their disdain in public.

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint could not bear it anymore. He shouted. “You are going too far! Don’t you understand the concept of first come, first serve?”

Even the other Eastern Wilderness prodigies were enraged, and they all stood up.

The North Prince glanced at the prodigies scornfully. “If you feel wronged, let’s go up to the Void Platform! If you win, I will let you have the Golden Phoenix room!”

Fighting was not allowed in Sky Saint City.

This was a holy land for learning, not a battlefield for fighting.

Jixia Academy strictly forbade personal fights to avoid injuries and deaths. The punishment for violating this rule was severe, and no one would be spared. Otherwise, why would the North Prince talk so much? He would have already attacked.

Nonetheless, one could fight on the Void Platform!

Jixia Academy had created the Void Platform to let its disciples spar.

One could fight legally on the Void Platform!

As long as no one died, no one would be reprimanded.

On the path of cultivation, cultivators must continuously go through battles to improve their power and abilities. If a cultivator was too safe and pampered, they might develop a lazy and nonchalant manner. That would be a very undesirable outcome.

Jixia Academy designated this Void Platform for the sole purpose of encouraging their disciples to spar.

Many disciples ended up using the Void Platform to fight and resolve conflicts.

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint cried out, “Let’s fight then! I am not afraid of you!”

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint was the first to stand up and go over to the Void Platform.

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint’s eyes gleamed coldly as he sn.i.g.g.e.red. “Seventh Purple Mansion Saint, I admire your lack of fear for death! I will let you accompany your Sixth Purple Mansion Saint in his grave!”

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint strolled onto the platform.

“Fight!”

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint’s mighty purple aura surged as tens of thousands of divine light shot out and covered the entire sky.

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint was not as talented as Qi Shaoxuan, but he was still a Saint and possessed extraordinary talent. He had already cultivated the Purple Mansion Imperial Sutra to a very high level.

Using his Peak-Stage Nascent Soul power to activate the mighty purple aura, it was enough to defeat a normal Heavenly Venerable.

The boundless purple aura crisscrossed to form a purple moon which lit up the entire Void Platform.

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint was nonchalant. “Just an ant trying to shake a tree. Is that all you got?”

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint glowed all over, dazzling beams of light shooting in all directions as a ma.s.sive tripod avatar appeared behind him.

The ma.s.sive tripod aura surged mightily. It was at least 10,000 feet high and very forceful. It completely subdued the purple aura.

“Let me teach you a good lesson!

“Tripod Rules the Mountains and Rivers!”

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint gave a cold command and activated the ma.s.sive silver-white tripod.

Brilliant light rays shot out, dazzling beyond limit.

The tripod cast a shadow across the entire region, its aura intense and heavy. It morphed into a silver rainbow that pressed down on the purple aura.

With this one attack, all were suppressed!

“Purple Sun Rises from the East!”

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint stepped forward as purple aura erupted from his body, morphing into purple clouds, which surged continuously into the purple sun.

The purple sun grew increasingly bigger until it was 10,000 feet and enshrouded in purple light. Purple flames appeared on its surface, which then gushed forth with terrifying power.

Boom!

A thundering explosion!

The tripod hummed with the vibration. The explosion dispersed the purple aura!

Even the Void Platform was shaking from the explosion.

The attacks of those two were terrifying. Even normal Heavenly Venerables might not be able to withstand them.

Luckily, this Void Platform was built to hold against Sage-level pract.i.tioners. It was virtually unbreakable.

The two of them were pushed backward from the force of the attacks. Their eyes turned grave.

It was an even match!

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint snorted. “You do have some tricks up your sleeves, but it’s not enough. How can your barbaric wasteland compare to our flourishing Middle Ground?”

Clang!

The tripod rang out.

A small silver tripod appeared in front of the Seventh Sky Tripod Saint. It was a mini replica of the avatar behind him.

The small tripod shimmered and exuded a formidable divine aura.

The Seventh Sky Tripod Saint activated the ma.s.sive silver tripod again, and his aura erupted!

Boom!

Waves of divine aura swept across the area like an unstoppable tsunami, turning everything upside down.

The tripod was as mighty as a rock mountain, so heavy and forceful that the pressure shattered the surrounding fabrics of s.p.a.ce.

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint’s face turned grave. He took out a sharp, silver spear and struck out with it.

The spear’s attack was like a hurricane storm, creating countless holes in the fabrics of s.p.a.ce!

Boom!

Sparks flew!

The silver tripod clashed with the silver spear. Divine energy surged and roiled in all directions!

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint’s expression changed. He felt like he had been hit by a colossal force that shook all his internal organs!

Splat!

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint collapsed after spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood. His aura was in disarray.

...

“d.a.m.n you!”

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint gnashed his teeth as he glared at the Seventh Sky Tripod Saint.

Supported by the silver tripod, the Seventh Sky Tripod Saint’s power grew to impressive heights. His aura was indomitable!

The Eastern Wilderness prodigies were enraged. “Despicable! How dare you make use of a supreme-grade Spirit artifact!”

The small silver tripod was indeed a supreme-grade Spirit artifact. It greatly enhanced the Seventh Sky Tripod Saint’s powers.

The Middle Ground prodigies were scornful.

“Country b.u.mpkins. Artifacts are part of your power!”

“Don’t blame others for your own poverty. Go ahead and use your artifacts, if you have any!”

A supreme-grade Spirit artifact was very valuable. There were many Heavenly Venerables who did not have any.

The Seventh Purple Mansion Saint only had a superior-grade Spirit artifact.

Meanwhile, the Seventh Sky Tripod Saint had already activated his supreme-grade Spirit artifact again and launched another attack at the Seventh Purple Mansion Saint.

The outcome was clear for all to see.

Both were the top of the top among their peers, and there was not much disparity between their powers. However, the difference between a superior-grade and a supreme-grade Spirit artifact was just too wide.

It was like the final straw which broke the camel’s back!

Just based on this point alone, the Seventh Purple Mansion Saint was forced backward by the Seventh Sky Tripod Saint, completely unable to counterattack.

The Ninth Purple Mansion Saint shouted anxiously, “I am coming to help you!”

The Eight Purple Mansion Saint also called out, “Me too!”

The Eighth and Ninth Purple Mansion Saints rushed forward.

Purple aura surged from behind them, forming a churning purple sea to help the Seventh Purple Mansion Saint withstand the attack.

The prodigies from the Sky Tripod Sacred Ground snorted.

“Trying to win by numbers?”

“Brothers, let’s go!”

“We must let these country b.u.mpkins know our mettle!”

The Sky Tripod prodigies all charged onto the Void Platform and started fighting with the Purple Mansion Saints.

The powers of the prodigies were more or less on par with each other. It should have been an even fight.

Unfortunately, the disparity between their artifacts was just too wide.

The Sky Tripod Sacred Ground was very wealthy, and every single one of their Saints had a supreme-grade Spirit artifact.

Even with the three Purple Mansion Saints joining forces, they were unable to defend themselves. They were completely thrashed.

The Seventh Divine Firmament Saint frowned. “We cannot just stand by and watch our Purple Mansion brothers in danger. Let us Eastern Wilderness prodigies work together as one. Let’s go up to help!”

The Purple Mansion Saints were fighting the Sky Tripod Sacred Ground because of the Golden Phoenix room.

The Divine Firmament Saints could not just sit by and do nothing.

“Yes, that’s right!”

“Those Middle Ground fellows are too much. They are belittling us.”

“Let’s fight it out with them. Strike them all dead with our Lightning Fist!”

“Charge on! Life and death do not matter!”

The prodigies from the other Eastern Wilderness sacred grounds were full of rage. They could not endure such an insult!

The prodigies from the various Eastern Wilderness sacred grounds rushed forth to battle the Middle Ground prodigies on the Void Platform.

A Middle Ground prodigy scoffed. “A bunch of ignorant fools. I will kill you all today!”

A great battle between prodigies from different regions erupted on the Void Platform. The scene was chaotic as all sorts of techniques and attacks flew here and there.

Every single Eastern Wilderness prodigy was fighting against a Middle Ground prodigy.

However, things were not looking good for the former.

The disparity between their artifacts was just too great!

The Middle Ground prodigies all had supreme-grade Spirit artifacts, which greatly enhanced their battle prowess.

Some of the favored prodigies even possessed Sage artifacts.

On top of that, amongst the Middle Ground prodigies were also some of the more senior Saints who had already ascended to the Soul Formation stage.

No matter how hard the Eastern Wilderness prodigies fought, they were completely subdued. It was a pathetic sight.

Now, the Eastern Wilderness prodigies were all sprawled on the ground, and their faces were swollen and battered.

...

The North Prince shook his head with a cold smile. “Eastern Wilderness prodigies, is this all you got?

“You were all defeated before I even made a single move.

“That’s it?

“Have your First Generation Saints come out to battle. I can beat 10 of them at once!”

The North Prince was full of disdain for the Eastern Wilderness prodigies. He had yet to make a single move, but the Eastern Wilderness prodigies were already all subdued by the Middle Ground prodigies.

The North Prince felt very disappointed. He boldly challenged the First Generation Saints of the various sacred grounds.

Given his powers, he could afford to behave so arrogantly.

The First Generation Saints of the various sacred grounds were all only Late-Stage Soul Formation cultivators.

As for the North Prince, Shi Ling was just over 100 years old but was already a Mid-Stage Soul Formation cultivator. He had also signed a partner contract with the Great Golden-Winged Eagle race and practiced both the Heavenly Eagle Imperial Sutra and Huang Shi Imperial Sutra.

Given his cultivation level and battle prowess, the North Prince was considered one of the top pract.i.tioners of his generation.

If he joined forces with his Golden Eagle partner, he could even defeat a peak Heavenly Venerable.

This was why the North Prince could behave so arrogantly.

Also, the South Prince was around!

The South Prince was just as powerful. He was more reserved and quiet, but he was not to be underestimated.

The South Prince, Shi Kui, was just over 200 years old, and his cultivation level was Late-Stage Soul Formation. He had signed a partner contract with the North Sea Black Turtle race, and his defense was unrivaled.

A normal Heavenly Venerable would not be able to even make a dent in his defense. His cultivation level and power were even higher than the North Prince’s.

With these two around, they could probably take on 20 First Generation Saints without any problem!

...

The North Prince sneered at the crowd. “Throw them out! Princess Linglong is about to arrive soon. Don’t spoil her mood!”

The Middle Ground prodigies nodded hastily. They started to toss those Eastern Wilderness prodigies out.

At that moment, a bunch of figures suddenly appeared at the door.

It was Shen Tian and his group.

Everyone was slightly taken aback at the sight.

Zhang Yunting was the first to react. He quickly stepped forward. “Our dear comrades, are you okay?”

The corners of Zhang Yunting’s mouth twitched as he looked at the swollen faces of the previous-generation Saints and Saintesses.

d.a.m.n!

Didn’t they say that they would help us prepare the place first?

Why have they all ended up in this pathetic state?

The Ninth Divine Firmament Saint’s face was all swollen, and he had gaps in his teeth. “Yunting, I am too useless. I wanted to help you guys prepare the place first, but someone else s.n.a.t.c.hed it from us!”

The Ninth Divine Firmament Saint was the previous Divine Firmament Saint, so of course, he knew Zhang Yunting and the rest.

Zhang Yunting sighed and shook his head. “Senior Brother, is there really a need for this? I have always said that we need to value peace and harmony above all. Senior Brother just refuses to listen. Sigh!”

The other prodigies, “...”

Value peace and harmony above all? Bullsh*t! Our faces are all swollen from a sound thrashing. And you are still preaching about peace and harmony!?

Princess Linglong frowned. She realized the issue here. “What were you doing in the first place?”

The North Prince stepped forward. “Linglong, these people didn’t know their place. I helped their sacred leaders teach them a good lesson.”

Princess Linglong said huffily, “Cousin, how could you guys do this!?”

Princess Linglong felt a sliver of panic.

...

What should I do?

Cousin beat up Brother Shen’s Senior Brothers and Senior Sisters so terribly.

How can I account to Brother Shen for this? Will Brother Shen be angry at me? Will he not like me anymore!?

The more she thought about it, the angrier Princess Linglong became. She glared fiercely at Shi Ling and Shi Kui.

Shi Ling and Shi Kui were dumbfounded.

What is happening? Is Cousin Linglong angry?

We have only beat up a few Eastern Wilderness prodigies. Why is she so angry over this?

Shi Ling and Shi Kui felt very aggrieved, but they did not dare to say anything.

Princess Linglong was much favored by Huang Shi. Their own father also liked her a lot.

Their father would definitely punish them if he knew that they had angered Princess Linglong.

That wouldn’t matter too much. He was their dad after all, and wouldn’t punish them too harshly. The key point was that those elders were not the only ones who doted on Princess Linglong!

Shi Tianzi, touted as a young paragon, also favored her!

...

If Cousin Tianzi knew of this, they would definitely be subjected to a major beating!

Those two arrogant princes trembled in fear at the thought of Shi Tianzi, who was younger than them!

A beating by that little monster—not everyone could endure it!
