Chapter 101: Being Renown Between True Disciples

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

On the other side, after Shen Tian flew out of the Sacred Leader Palace, he was completely in a daze.

So it’s over just like this? I have a Sacred Leader Master now?

Although it was quite good to be the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader’s disciple, as there was a sense of security, Shen Tian still felt that his master was slightly unreliable. Also, his hearing was not that great either.

After looking at the Black Tortoise shield, which was black and had patterns, Shen Tian took the Purple Golden Hammer out of his Archeon Sea Ring.

Yea~

Shen Tian held the Black Tortoise Shield in his left hand and the Purple Golden Hammer in his right hand.

He couldn’t put his finger on it, but he had seen something similar somewhere before.

Isn’t it a certain someone who seemed unable to pick up the hammer on the surface, yet he seemed to have secretly trained in a whole combo of attacks1?

I’m curious. If compared to his shield, whose shield is harder!?

However, one had to admit that the appearance of holding the Black Tortoise Shield was top-notch.

As for the Sacred Leader’s advice of carrying it on his back, as it could increase the speed of lightning arts cultivation, Shen Tian ignored it. He did not need that bit of extra enhancement.

“Looks like I have to become the Saint.” Shen Tian sighed. “Thus, the plan now is to hurry and turn green.”

Only by turning even greener as soon as possible, or even turn red from green, could he be able to hold his position.

After pondering for some time, Shen Tian left the Sacred Leader Mountain and rushed toward the Mirror Moon Lake near the Small World. He still remembered that there was a golden-haired youngster with small eyes that could help him turn green!

…

Boom!

Another huge explosion occurred abruptly on the Mirror Moon Lake yet again. The white splash of water turned into a white mist that filled the sky under the heating of lightning and high temperature.

The white mist reflected light in the seven colors of a rainbow as the sun shone on it. It really looked like a rainbow.

Qin Yundi, who was shrouded in white mist, felt resigned and sighed. “Sigh, the power is still too weak.”

That’s right, Qin Yundi was still trying to research a new type of Lightning Explosion Talisman, and he kept on experimenting.

Each time it exploded, large amounts of money were wasted in the Mirror Moon Lake. Even a true disciple of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground would feel the pain of spending that much money.

A talisman that could bear lightning arts could not be drawn on normal paper. Such a talisman could only be created with Spirit Paper made from monster beasts’ fur, and the rate of success was quite low.

Qin Yundi had spent almost all of his money to buy Spirit Papers, Demon Blood, and Spirit Ink, but it was only enough to do experiments a few times.

After finishing these few experiments, he had to return to the sacred ground so he could continue drawing talisman to sell and earn money.

“Just where did it go wrong? I once managed to make its power much stronger!”

Qin Yundi frowned. His narrow eyes were filled with worry that could not be concealed as the research had reached a bottleneck, and he had no clue.

One time, after he had finished setting up the Lightning Explosion Talisman Array, the explosion had been so massive it was frightening.

Unfortunately, from then on, every time he adjusted the talisman, trying to get the same results as that miraculous attempt with the extraordinary effects, the outcome would always fail his expectations. The explosion impact could not be compared to the time when he had casually set up the Lightning Explosion Talisman.

Qin Yundi did not know where the problem was. He would be much more serious than that time with every attempt!

The feeling of seeing the road to success but being unable to get close and explore made Qin Yundi suffer.

“Sigh… I’ve almost depleted the Spirit Stones I saved up after selling a month’s worth of Lightning Explosion Talisman again.”

Qin Yundi looked at his storage ring, and his face gradually turned black.

Luckily, Senior Sister Yunxiao had stopped Martial Uncle Azure Lotus, or else he would not even have a Spirit Stone left. By that time, it would be tragic as even if Qin Yundi wanted to make some talismans to sell, he would not have the money to buy the materials.

In the world where everyone in the surroundings was absorbed in cultivating—as the weirdo—he was destined to walk this road alone.

…

Time passed by minutes and seconds, and the water mist on the lake gradually dispersed.

“There are still the last two talismans left to set up the array. Hopefully, I can succeed at least once!”

Qin Yundi carefully took out his Lightning Talismans and set them in place as they floated on top of the Mirror Moon Lake. Each talisman was arranged in its specific location, roughly forming a whole.

Qin Yundi took a deep breath and made hand gestures while chanting. Then, he suddenly shouted loudly, “Explode!”

The talisman characters carved on the Lightning Explosion Talisman were instantly activated, and in the blink of an eye, all the Lightning Talismans exploded together.

The powerful impact force created huge waves in the Mirror Moon Lake, and water mist filled the sky yet again.

Lightning flashed on the lake’s surface like small silver snakes. It was a pretty sight. However, Qin Yundi’s face was calm throughout, and he was even a little disappointed.

As expected, recreating that miracle was still a failure…

Qin Yundi sighed lightly.

At that moment, as he was about to record the data and try again, he suddenly heard an exclamation from afar.

“A superb Lightning Explosion Talisman Array! You really are amazing regarding the research in Lightning Explosion Talisman Array.”

Qin Yundi was startled. He turned his head and saw a figure walking from within the water mist.

That figure belonged to a young man wearing a gorgeous white robe. He was dignified and distinguished-looking. His appearance was peerless as if a heavenly immortal’s.

That person gradually walked toward him from the mist, and the rainbow-colored light shone on his body. It was as if he had walked out of a painting.

Qin Yundi remembered him. He was the most handsome among the many people who had returned with their Saintess and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus.

Such a man of extraordinary handsomeness is obviously not simple.

Qin Yundi secretly took note of him. He used his power to sense Shen Tian’s presence and detect his cultivation level. However, Qin Yundi discovered that the handsome man in front of him was unfathomable.

No matter how he tried to sense, he could not detect any presence from Shen Tian.

There were only three possibilities, but no matter which, it all explained that this handsome man was definitely extraordinary.

Qin Yundi’s squinted narrow eyes betrayed that he was on guard. “May I know who you might be and what business you might have here?”

Frankly speaking, Qin Yundi was prepared to immediately escape if the situation turned out to be unfavorable for him. Shen Tian had arrived with Martial Uncle Azure Lotus, so he was automatically branded as a suspicious fellow.

What if he was Martial Uncle Azure Lotus’ lackey specially sent to extort money from him?

Shen Tian did not know Qin Yundi was on guard. “I am Shen Tian,” he said smilingly.

As if being blinded by Shen Tian’s smile in the mist of rainbow light, Qin Yundi could not help but be dazed for a moment.

However, he quickly regained his consciousness. “Shen Tian? You’re the new Saint of our sect, that Shen Tian?”

Shen Tian was astonished.

WTH!? How did you know? I only just agreed to become the Saint.

Upon seeing the puzzled expression on Shen Tian’s face, Qin Yundi explained, “Senior Brother, you don’t need to be shocked.

“A few days ago, Senior Brother Li Yunfeng informed us that the sacred ground had recovered the supreme forbidden spell, Decalamity. The fated person who had found it would become our sacred ground’s Saint with the chance to marry our Saintess. Now, almost all the true disciples should know Senior Brother’s name.”

Shen Tian’s lips twitched as he saw the narrow-eyed Qin Yundi’s smile.

Can’t you let me keep a low profile and grow stronger first? That person called Li Yunfeng, if you dare to appear, I promise not to beat you to death!
