I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 98: Art Is All About Explosions

Chapter 98: Art Is All About Explosions

After listening to Zhang Yunxi’s complaints, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus blushed and swiftly jumped off the vessel to investigate what had happened.

“Which b.l.o.o.d.y idiot bombarded us?”

Everyone looked in the direction where the old Taoist priest was flying, and they noticed a giant lake below them. There was lots of water vapor and mist on the surface of the water mixed with lightning sparks.

An explosion had taken place on the lake, and the impact had blasted their vessel.

A golden-haired boy appeared after hearing the old Taoist priest’s yell. He was wearing a robe that only the true disciples of Divine Firmament Sacred Ground would have. He had small eyes and appeared to be a very quiet boy.

The boy’s face blushed with embarra.s.sment when he recognized the old Taoist priest. “Good morning, Martial Uncle Azure Lotus.”

The old Taoist priest nodded and acknowledged. “What are you doing here? Studying explosions again?”

The golden-haired boy smiled and replied, “Yes! Yundi was trying out a new combination of Spirit Qi and making a more powerful Lightning Explosion Talisman. My experiments have almost leveled the mountains near the sacred ground, so I had no other place to test out but here. I’m so sorry that my Lightning Explosion Talisman had bothered Martial Uncle!”

The old Taoist priest snorted. “Just sorry? You damaged the flying vessel, you know that? You have to pay for the damage.”

The golden-haired boy was puzzled. “But Martial Uncle Azure Lotus, shouldn’t the flying vessel have its Stealth Mode array formations activated?”

The old Taoist priest tried to argue back, but Zhang Yunxi interrupted him. “Martial Uncle, I don’t think Junior Brother is at fault for this.”

The boy looked at Zhang Yunxi gratefully, but she did not notice it.

Martial Uncle Azure Lotus was known for his bad temper. The boy was very unlucky that it was Azure Lotus that he had troubled.

I’d be in so much trouble if Senior Sister Saintess wasn’t around. She is really my savior!

The flying vessel started moving again. They were already near the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

The Mirror Moon Lake they had stopped at just now was the largest lake around Divine Firmament City. It was very close to the Divine Firmament Peak. And that was why that true disciple of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was testing out his lightning art there.

On the vessel, Shen Tian asked after pondering for a few moments, “Senior Sister, is that a Senior Brother from the sacred ground?”

Zhang Yunxi nodded. “Yes, he is the Golden Lotus Spirit Mountain’s Prime Disciple, Qin Yundi. He is the only son of Aunt-Master Golden Lotus. There are nine Soul Formation Elders in our sacred ground, and each of them is guarding one Spirit Mountain. However, you are our Saint, so by right, they should call you Senior Brother instead.”

Shen Tian thought for a moment and said, “Oh, I see. I think that Junior Brother is very special!”

Indeed, his halo was red with golden spots—he was not a normal person!

What was more important was that Shen Tian had seen the fortuitous opportunity through the halo. Had there not been so many people in the vicinity, he would have already jumped down from the vessel.

I didn’t get a good look at the fortuitous opportunity. I’ll find this junior brother later when I have time. I hope that he won’t encounter the opportunity yet.

Shen Tian mentally noted down Qin Yundi’s name.

Zhang Yunxi continued. “He is very special, indeed. Unfortunately, he has wasted his talents. Given his innate talent, he would have already reached the Golden Core stage if he had worked hard. However, he’s not interested in cultivating. He is obsessed with studying the Lightning Talisman.

“Truth be told, the Lightning Talisman he created is much stronger than the rest. He actually used 600 Lightning Explosion Talismans to kill a late-stage Golden Core demon. Nonetheless, using items to fight is not cultivation’s rationale.

“You can buy some Lightning Explosion Talismans from him in the future if you need. Just mention my name, and he should give you a discount.

“Be careful, though. Don’t make the mistake he made. Cultivation is the key to success!”

Zhang Yunxi explained in detail in fear that Qin Yundi would be a bad influence on Shen Tian.

Shen Tian nodded. He had a basic understanding of him now.

Qin Yundi was the son of a strong Soul Formation cultivator, but he had used all his resources on his research. Hence, his peers Fang Chang, Zhang Yunting, and Zhang Yunxi had reached the Golden Core stage by now. In addition, the three of them were among the top ten Golden Core cultivators in Eastern Wilderness.

Qin Yundi, on the other hand, was still a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

His mother, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus, had been angry at him for not doing the right thing. At the same time, his high-cost research had incensed her further, and she couldn’t stand him burning through their money on something like that. As such, Heavenly Venerable Golden Lotus had cut off his allowance, thinking this measure would force her son to listen to her.

Contrary to her expectations, Qin Yundi had found a new way to earn money. He had started selling his Lightning Talismans in the sacred ground.

Although his cultivation level was low, his second-grade Lightning Talisman was very handy after he had improved it.

A normal second-grade Lightning Talisman only carried 30% of a Foundation Establishment cultivator’s power, but it could reach 70% of their power after his improvement. In other words, he had improved the power of a normal Lightning Talisman by 40%!

Thus, his Lightning Talisman was very popular among the common disciples in the sacred ground. Even some lightning-type cultivators that did not belong to the sacred ground would visit him to purchase his Lightning Talisman.

It was impossible for them to use their Divinity infinitely to defend themselves when they encountered danger outside. Consequently, when their Divinity was depleted, a few powerful Lightning Talismans would save their life.

Sometimes, if they were lucky and willing to use a few more Lightning Talismans, they could even overturn and win the battle instead.

Thus, Qin Yundi’s Lightning Talisman was well-liked by many people.

However, making the talismans was not easy. In addition, Qin Yundi’s main priority was doing research instead of earning money, so he used most of his Lightning Talismans to gather data and for observation purposes. He only sold a small portion of what he made.

Therefore, Qin Yundi was not very rich, and his life was not well off.

Shen Tian was surprised after learning all these from Zhang Yunxi.

Someone is into research in an unscientific place like the cultivation world!? Others are cultivating on lightning arts, and you are studying bombs? Art is all about explosions, huh? Are you Deidara!?
