I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 474: Repairing the Divine Firmament Lightning

Chapter 474: Repairing the Divine Firmament Lightning

Everyone was pleased to see Shen Tian return.

Elder Azure Lotus, Chu Longhe, also walked out. His white eyebrows raised as he smiled. “Martial Nephew, how was your harvest this time?”

He had personally seen Shen Tian enter the Spherical Heaven Chessboard that day and knew that he would definitely obtain a great opportunity.

After all, they hadn’t even cleared the game, and they’d already obtained pseudo-Immortal artifacts as rewards.

Shen Tian had successfully cleared the game, so how could his gains be small?

As for Shen Tian’s 180-year disappearance?

To be honest, they were not very worried.

The Spherical Heaven Chessboard was left behind by a supreme figure of the Celestial World.

Since Shen Tian had entered the Spherical Heaven Chessboard, he would definitely be protected by a mighty figure, so why would he encounter danger?

On top of that, his providence was supreme, and he was a true and deserving Son of Providence.

Everyone was looking forward to Shen Tian returning with a fortuitous opportunity.

Seeing him today, it was indeed true.

The aura emanating from Shen Tian alone caused Elder Azure Lotus to faintly feel pressure and be unable to figure Shen Tian out.

It looked like this kid had a rich harvest!

Shen Tian took a step forward, cupped his hands, and said respectfully, “I have troubled Master and Martial Uncle. Disciple has indeed obtained some opportunities.”

Zhang Longyuan and Chu Longhe were both seniors Shen Tian respected the most, so he naturally had to respond politely.

“Haha, alright!

“As expected of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader of this generation. Your providence is indeed supreme!”

Chu Longhe laughed heartily, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

Although the other Grand Elders did not say anything, they were also very pleased.

They had been watching Shen Tian grow up and treated him as their junior.

The Supreme Elders were also very happy to see Shen Tian return safely.

...

Rumble!

However, right at this moment, a sound suddenly echoed from outside.

When everyone looked over, they saw many Divine Firmament disciples standing in front of the mechas.

The disciples were old acquaintances of everyone—Song Fugui, Liu Taiyi, Xiong Meng, Qin Yundi, and others.

Their faces were filled with respect and devotion.

Song Fugui stood at the front of the group and shouted excitedly, “Fellow disciples, our new Sacred Leader is finally back! Quickly show your enthusiasm and welcome the return of our Sacred Leader!”

With that said, all the Divine Firmament disciples were immediately fired up.

They all took out their longswords and threw them high into the sky. They activated their techniques and controlled the position of their longswords.

Countless longswords glittered and glowed with a brilliant silver light. They interweaved and lingered, covering the sky completely under the endless sword rays.

Sword cries resounded through the heavens. The sounds they emitted tingled one’s bones, making one’s blood boil.

Everyone was dazzled by what they saw. As countless swords flew through the air, they formed dazzling sword shadows that were incomparably gorgeous.

In the end, the countless swords were all arranged in an orderly manner, forming an incomparably ma.s.sive ‘Tian’ character in the void. It was grand and majestic, and the scene was incomparably spectacular!

At that moment, countless Divine Firmament disciples shouted piously, “We shall work hard to cultivate every day and follow the Sacred Leader to become an immortal!”

Rumbling sounds echoed through the heavens and the earth, causing the hearts of countless people to tremble.

However, this was not the end. Qin Yundi took out a token and instantly lit it up.

In an instant, thousands of mechas burst forth with resplendent divine light, shooting out streaks of Mixed Divine Lightning that went straight into the sky!

Beams of colorful lightning shot into the sky and exploded.

It was like a dazzling firework show that illuminated the world!

This Mixed Divine Lightning was formed by combusting countless Spirit Stones. But right now, it seemed as if it didn’t cost anything at all. Huge amounts of it were spent just to celebrate Shen Tian’s return!

Amidst the endless fireworks, all the Divine Firmament disciples bowed and shouted in unison, “Divine Firmament disciples welcome Sacred Leader Shen Tian!”

...

When they saw this scene, everyone was stupefied, inwardly sighing that this was truly too extravagant.

Just the amount of Spirit Stones consumed was comparable to the total income of many cultivation grounds for several years.

The surrounding disciples finally reacted.

They had spent so much money just to welcome this generation’s Divine Firmament Sacred Leader!

Wasn’t this generation’s Divine Firmament Sacred Leader Shen Tian? The one who had disappeared many years ago?

That was to say, the man who had been renowned throughout the five regions back then had finally returned!

In an instant, the crowd erupted.

Although most of these cultivators were juniors that had risen recently, they had all heard of Shen Tian’s name!

He was Jixia Academy’s Human Compound’s Prime Disciple.

He had gone against a Seven Tribulation Great Sage the moment he entered the academy.

He had cleared the game of chess that was said to be unbeatable in the Spherical Heaven Chessboard.

Even the all-powerful Shi Tianzi, who had slaughtered countless Evil Spirits, claimed to be inferior to Shen Tian.

...

Although Shen Tian had disappeared for 180 years, his fame hadn’t diminished in the slightest. Instead, it made him become more famous. He was like a legend to the newer generation.

With the emergence of the great calamity, monstrous geniuses emerged one after another.

However, no one could break the record that Shen Tian had set back then. In fact, it could even be said that they were far inferior.

Only now did they understand how terrifying Shen Tian’s talent and combat strength were.

He was simply unprecedented and unparalleled.

Throughout the ages, there was no one who could achieve this level of accomplishment!

Thus, everyone was filled with shock and joy upon seeing Shen Tian return safely.

While the Evil Spirit race was wreaking havoc, the return of such a supremely talented expert was a good thing for the five regions.

With the addition of Sacred Leader Shen Tian, they might be able to better resist the Evil Spirits from the outer realm!

Instantly, the entire Divine Firmament Sacred Ground became extremely lively.

Everyone was cheering and celebrating Shen Tian’s return.

...

Amidst the cheers of countless people, Shen Tian was welcomed into the main peak by Zhang Longyuan.

The two of them entered the Sacred Leader Palace. Zhang Longyuan’s body shimmered with heavenly aura. “Tian’er, now that you have returned safely, it’s time for you to a.s.sume the position of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.

“Now, I will hand over the position of Sacred Leader to you. I hope you can lead the sacred ground to resist the Evil Spirits from the outer realm.”

Shen Tian’s body trembled, and he solemnly cupped his hands. “Yes. Disciple will follow Master’s teachings and swear to protect the sacred ground and resist the Evil Spirits!”

Zhang Longyuan nodded. Then, he took out a golden token. The surface of the token flowed with golden light and was engraved with strange patterns.

At the center of the token, the two words ‘Divine Firmament’ were engraved. The words were like horned dragons, strong and powerful, containing immense might.

This was the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader Token, a symbol of the Sacred Leader’s status.

Moreover, the Sacred Leader Token had many functions and great authority.

Not only could one command the Divine Firmament disciples and Elders, but one could also control the entire Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s formation.

This was a formation that the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground had pa.s.sed down since ancient times. It contained endless divine might.

It could be said that the Sacred Leader Token was the core of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground. It controlled the entire sacred ground and was extremely important.

Since Shen Tian held the position of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, the Sacred Lord Token was naturally imparted to him.

Zhang Longyuan handed the Sacred Lord Token to Shen Tian and said, “Tian’er, since you are the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader now, you can use all the resources of the Sacred Leader Mountain and the sacred ground.

“Also, our sect’s inherited Thearch artifact, the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags, will be safeguarded by you.”

After saying that, Zhang Longyuan took out another item.

In that instant, lightning flashed, and thunder rumbled, releasing tremendous pressure that swept over Shen Tian.

In front of them, numerous flags that were enshrouded in divine light appeared, and they were extremely dazzling.

Each flag emitted a tremendous pressure, their aura not weaker than a pseudo-Thearch artifact.

The flags combined together to unleash the might of a Thearch artifact.

Zhang Longyuan’s body rippled with immortal light as he said, “The Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags consist of one main flag and ten subsidiary flags. Combined, they can unleash supreme power.

“You can also use the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags as the foundation to set up the Divine Sky Lightning Array.

“At its peak, it can even kill a Thearch.

“Back then, the Divine Firmament Thearch had used the Lightning Emperor Flags to make a name for himself in the five regions. He successfully established the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground and shocked the five regions.

“This item is the symbol of our sect. It is also our most important item.

“The Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags are extremely precious. Its power is boundless, far surpa.s.sing ordinary Thearch artifacts.

“But due to the war 10,000 years ago, when supreme Evil Spirits invaded the five regions, countless factions suffered heavy losses. Even our sect’s Thearch artifact, the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags, was destroyed in that battle.

“For the past 10,000 years, although our sacred ground tried our best to repair the Thearch artifact, we have yet to succeed.

“At present, the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags only have their main flag, as well as the Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise, and Qilin flags.”

“Although the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags’ power has decreased, it is still ranked as a Thearch artifact.

“Today, I shall pa.s.s on this flag to you.

“Firstly, you can use it to protect yourself and kill Evil Spirits.

“Secondly, I hope that you can restore it to its former glory.”

Zhang Longyuan stared at Shen Tian with deep emotions. He knew that it was extremely difficult to make the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags return to its peak. The entire Divine Firmament Sacred Ground had spent 10,000 years and expended countless resources, but all it did was repair one main flag and four subsidiary flags.

Furthermore, it was only because these flags were not completely destroyed but were just in a broken state, which allowed them to be restored.

Even so, the Divine Firmament’s predecessors had expended countless efforts to barely repair it.

The remaining six flags could no longer be restored. They had been completely destroyed in the battle 10,000 years ago.

Unless it was forged anew, it was basically impossible to recover.

However, forging them was easier said than done. After all, it was a Thearch artifact, which could only be refined by Thearchs.

And the five regions had not produced a Thearch for many years!

Even Huang Shi was said to be quite a distance away from becoming a true Thearch.

Thus, this matter was delayed, and the Lightning Emperor Flags were unable to unleash their greatest power.

...

Now that Zhang Longyuan handed the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags to Shen Tian, he was secretly looking forward to it.

This was because Shen Tian was an unprecedented Son of Providence and possessed supreme luck.

He could make anything impossible possible.

Perhaps the Lightning Emperor Flags could return to its peak in Shen Tian’s hands!

“Yes, Master! I will do my best to repair the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags!”

Shen Tian earnestly received the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags and also felt a heavy sense of mission land on his shoulders.

The position of Sacred Lord was not only a t.i.tle but also a mission!

From today onward, he would be responsible for protecting the dignity of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground and protecting the safety of the disciples, as well as leading the sacred ground to achieve glory.

However, Shen Tian did not feel that it was a burden. His ties with the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground were rather many.

Even if he did not hold the position of Sacred Leader, he would still protect the sacred ground.

“Good, very good!”

The heavenly aura around Zhang Longyuan’s body rippled violently. His heart was filled with gratification.

After pa.s.sing the position of the Sacred Leader to Shen Tian, he finally felt at ease.

He firmly believed that Tian’er was the supreme Son of Providence and was the dragon amongst men.

Under Tian’er’s lead, the five regions would definitely win this tough battle!

After all, this was his era!

...

Zhang Longyuan turned and left, leaving the Sacred Leader Mountain to Shen Tian.

As the current Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, Shen Tian naturally had to stay at the Sacred Leader Mountain.

Zhang Longyuan moved to the Grand Elder’s residence and continued to protect the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

Seeing Zhang Longyuan leave, Shen Tian also began to study the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags in his hand.

He could feel that although the Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags were broken. The power this artifact contained was far greater than a pseudo-Thearch artifact.

After all, it was a Thearch artifact. If it was completely repaired, the power it erupted with wouldn’t be weaker than the Divine Sun Cauldron, perhaps even stronger than it.

In particular, these Thearch artifacts were extremely powerful in terms of both offensive and defensive capabilities.

If he used the complete Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags to set up the Divine Firmament Sky Lightning Array.

Any living being below the Thearch level would die upon contact!

In that case, he could better protect the sacred ground and prevent Evil Spirits from invading.

...

“How should I repair it?”

Shen Tian frowned slightly. How could a Thearch artifact be repaired so easily?

Moreover, Shen Tian didn’t know much about weapon refinement. At most, he had only refined a life weapon.

As if recalling something, Shen Tian’s eyes lit up. “Old Master Ye, do you know how to repair this Thearch artifact?”

Since he couldn’t think of anything, he would ask!

It would be a waste not to use such good resources.

As a powerful being of the Celestial World, Ye Qincang must have a solution.

Ye Qincang said slowly, “Not only can your Chaotic Tinder Forging Art forge a life weapon, but it is also a supreme artifact-refining art.

“Although you can’t refine a Thearch artifact with your current strength, refining some pseudo-Thearch artifacts shouldn’t be a problem.

“After all, what you control is the Chaotic True Fire. It is the supreme flame that many refining masters dream of.

“The destroyed Divine Firmament Lightning Emperor Flags are at most at the pseudo-Thearch level. You can definitely replicate those flags.

“Then, with the flags, you should be able to unleash the power of a Thearch artifact.”

Shen Tian’s eyes lit up.

The Chaotic Star Sword he refined was a supreme-grade Immortal artifact.

But its power was no weaker than a pseudo-Thearch artifact. In some aspects, it even surpa.s.sed it.

This was due to the augmentation of the Chaotic True Fire, which resulted in the birth of innate spiritual qi in the sword, causing it to transform.

This meant that the Chaotic True Fire was extremely helpful for weapon refinement.

Thus, with his current strength, refining a pseudo-Thearch artifact wasn’t too difficult.

With this in mind, Shen Tian walked straight to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s treasury without any hesitation.

If one wanted to refine a pseudo-Thearch artifact, not only did they need superior refining techniques, but they also needed a ma.s.sive amount of refining resources.

Shen Tian hadn’t paid much attention to weapon refinement before, nor had he collected many materials.

However, it was not a big problem. With a faction as powerful as the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground as his backing, there was no need to worry about these things.

Given his Sacred Leader ident.i.ty, he could easily retrieve the materials from the treasure vault.

Shen Tian quickly took out a large pile of refining materials from the sacred ground’s treasury and prepared to refine the subsidiary flags.

...

Clang!

The sound was deafening!

The Divine Sun Cauldron sat in the void, erupting with powerful might.

Endless True Sun Fire burned in the divine furnace, releasing a temperature that made one’s heart jump.

After all, what Shen Tian refined this time was a pseudo-Thearch artifact array flag.

If he didn’t use the Divine Sun Cauldron, he probably wouldn’t be able to withstand the violent energy and would cause the furnace to explode.

Soon, Shen Tian prepared all the materials and started refining them according to the Chaotic Tinder Forging Art.

With a wave of his hand, another wave of blazing flames rose.

Raging flames burned brilliantly, mixed with silver mist. The aura was incomparably terrifying, able to easily burn the void into ashes.

This fire was the Chaotic True Fire.

When this ball of flame appeared, even the True Sun Fire submitted to it.

Shen Tian waved his hand and threw the Chaotic True Fire into the Divine Sun Cauldron. Then, he took out more than 20 Sage artifacts.

If one wanted to refine a pseudo-Thearch artifact, the simplest method was to reforge Sage artifacts.

Sage artifacts were forged from extremely precious immortal metals.

Through the smelting of flames, the Sage artifact could reverse to its origin.

If one refined the immortal metals from scratch again, it would truly take too long.

Some people needed to spend several years or even decades forging pseudo-Immortal artifacts and Sage artifacts.

The aspect that took the most time in weapon refinement was smelting the ores and immortal metals!

Shen Tian didn’t plan on wasting so much time on mining, so he directly used the ready-made ones.

In any case, he had enough Sage artifacts in his little treasury. There was no point in keeping them.

...

20 Sage artifacts entered the Divine Sun Cauldron and were instantly enveloped by the Chaotic True Fire.

In an instant, an incomparably dazzling divine light burst forth.

Under the smelting of the Chaotic True Fire, the Sage artifacts transformed into drops of sparkling and translucent source fluid that dripped down.

However, it would still take some time to completely refine over 20 Sage artifacts.

Three days later...

More than 20 Sage artifacts had already been completely refined into a ball of silver liquid. Divine energy gushed out from within, containing boundless might.

Dense immortal light surrounded the source fluid, flickering with dazzling divine light. The impurities within were continuously being refined and reduced.

Then, Shen Tian threw all kinds of supplementary refining materials into the furnace and smelted them with the Chaotic True Fire.

Soon, the supplementary refining materials turned into drops of pure liquid that merged with the silver liquid.

The Divine Sun Cauldron immediately erupted with resplendent radiance, dazzling to the extreme.

The ball of source liquid mixed with the supplementary materials and erupted with extremely dense energy.

Shen Tian formed hand seals and fused the source fluid together.

He had to first construct the model of the flag according to the idea in his mind.

The liquid was quickly divided into six portions, each of which vaguely took the shape of a flag.

Then, Shen Tian activated the power of lightning, condensing countless bolts of chaotic divine lightning that blasted into the Divine Sun Cauldron.

He wanted to use the Chaotic True Fire and chaotic divine lightning to temper and forge a Sub-Thearch artifact.

At the same time, this chaotic divine lightning had different attributes.

This way, each subsidiary flag would be perfectly compatible with the main flag, allowing it to unleash boundless power.

At the same time, Shen Tian also threw in the main flag and the four subsidiary flags.

With the tempering of the Chaotic True Fire and the chaotic divine lightning, its quality would definitely increase by a level.

However, this still required a certain amount of time to nurture before it could change.

Fortunately, Shen Tian wasn’t in a hurry. He continued to enhance his firepower and use the chaotic divine lightning to refine the weapon.

Dazzling divine light covered the entire Sacred Leader Palace. The liquid in the Divine Sun Cauldron was also gradually transforming.

Time flew, 81 days later...

A phenomenon appeared above the Sacred Leader Mountain!

An incomparably resplendent divine light soared into the sky, illuminating the heavens and carrying an incomparably intense pressure!

At that instant, a terrifying pressure swept across the entire Divine Firmament Sacred Ground like a tidal wave!

Everyone’s attention was gathered. They shifted their gaze to the Sacred Leader Mountain with incomparable shock.

They could feel an incomparably vast pseudo-Thearch pressure coming from the Sacred Leader Mountain. It was extremely powerful.

“This aura... Could it be that Sacred Leader Shen Tian has already broken through to the Thearch realm?”

“No, no, no, this aura is coming from a supreme artifact!”

“Could it be that Sacred Leader Shen Tian has refined a pseudo-Thearch artifact?”

...

Everyone was shocked.

They didn’t expect that not only did Shen Tian know how to refine pills, but he also knew how to refine weapons. Moreover, he had refined a pseudo-Thearch artifact in one go!

Was there still anything he couldn’t do?

The Sacred Leader was simply omnipotent!
