Chapter 420: Great Thearch Huang Shi, Teaching Personally?

Just when everyone was shocked by War King’s words, a figure ran out. “Uncle War King!”

That’s right, that person was Princess Linglong.

As the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s princess, she naturally had to come out to welcome the War King.

“Princess, if His Majesty knew that you sneaked away again, he’d be very mad,” said the War King as he tried putting on a solemn face once he saw Princess Linglong.

After the Immortal Abode Island incident, Princess Linglong had secretly run away. Who would have expected that she had gone to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?

One had to know that Princess Linglong had high status, so no one could take responsibility if anything happened to her!

Princess Linglong stuck out her tongue as she wheedled, “Uncle War King, I know I’m wrong.”

The War King smiled bitterly as he shook his head. His solemn face also turned into that of pampering.

He just could not keep a straight face in front of her.

Princess Linglong not only had extremely high talents, but she was also wise and intelligent. Thus she was loved by the various powerful beings in the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty.

Naturally, the War King was not an exception.

…

Wait, why has the princess’ constitution changed?

The War King suddenly realized that Princess Linglong’s constitution seemed to have undergone a change.

Currently, her constitution was much more powerful than before, and even her cultivation level had increased greatly.

That astonished the War King.

One had to know that the Linglong Sage Body was already one of the top-notch constitutions—even Emperor Shi had been delighted when Princess Linglong was born.

It was a constitution decided on birth and basically could not be changed.

However, not only had Princess Linglong’s Linglong Sage Body undergone a transformation, but it had also become much stronger. It was simply unbelievable.

One had to know that only about one month had passed since she had gone missing!

“My strength has increased again, and it’s all due to Brother Shen’s Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill!”

Princess Linglong blushed and unconsciously glanced at Shen Tian.

“Shen Tian? Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill?”

The War King could not help but become interested.

Shortly after, Princess Linglong explained what had happened to him in detail.

The War King was astounded and could not help but exclaim, “There’s actually such an extraordinary pill in this world!”

Princess Linglong would not deceive him, so there was indeed such a miraculous pill that could even benefit Sages.

…

The War King narrowed his eyes and scanned the surroundings before speaking. “Where is the Divine Firmament Saint?”

Shen Tian walked forward and cupped his hands together before replying, “I greet Senior War King, I am Shen Tian!”

The War King looked at Shen Tian, who had unparalleled handsomeness and could not help but be stunned by Shen Tian’s appearance.

He’s indeed extraordinary. His looks could even be compared to when I’m young.

He said calmly, “Indeed, you have extraordinary talent. I represent the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty to congratulate you on succeeding in the position of the Divine Firmament Saint.”

Upon hearing the War King’s words, the Sages from the various sacred grounds could not help but exclaim.

They had indeed guessed correctly!

The Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty had actually sent the War King, a Nine Tribulation Great Sage, to congratulate the Divine Firmament Saint in his Saint Inauguration Ceremony!

Just what kind of honor was this?

No Saint or Saintess in the five regions had ever enjoyed such a treatment!

However, given the Divine Firmament Saint’s talent, he was worthy of such actions.

During this period, everyone had already been convinced by Shen Tian’s peerless talent, which he had displayed.

Not only could he send a True Sage flying with one hammer, but he could even create the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

No other prodigies from the younger generation could have such talents!

Shen Tian smiled and said, “Senior War King, you’re flattering me!”

Shen Tian was quite humble as he was facing a Nine Tribulation Great Sage.

The War King nodded slightly. “You’re neither arrogant nor impetuous and have a mature mindset. You are indeed an exceptional man!

“On this trip, besides delivering Great Thearch Huang Shi’s edict, there’s also a matter involving you!”

“Me?”

Shen Tian was dumbstruck.

Why does it involve me?

Although I am indeed overflowing with talent, and I’m also both intelligent and courageous, it’s unlikely for someone as powerful and mighty as the War King to look for me personally, right?

“Rumors say that the Divine Firmament Saint is exceptionally gifted, so His Majesty has mentioned in the edict that he hopes for you to head to Jixia Academy to study. The emperor is willing to teach you personally.”

The War King looked calm and composed, but he was also dumbfounded.

One had to know that the Great Thearch Huang Shi had paramount status in Jixia Academy.

In the past 1,000 years, only Shi Tianzi, who had polychoria and paramount talent, from the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty had received Huang Shi’s pointers!

Shi Tianzi was a young prodigy who could look down on all other prodigies. He was the strongest prodigy in Middle Ground.

Only he had the qualifications to cultivate with Huang Shi.

Unexpectedly, Huang Shi had actually given an edict to teach the Divine Firmament Saint, who he had never met before and was in Eastern Wilderness that was far away.

That had left even the emperor puzzled.

The various Sages were also dumbstruck.

It was the Great Thearch Huang Shi!

The ceiling of the cultivators of the five regions!

Such an existence had actually invited the Divine Firmament Saint to enter Jixia Academy and even wanted to teach him personally!

Even the Sages were shocked!

Meanwhile, the other sacred grounds’ prodigies were all jealous.

As expected of the Divine Firmament Saint!

We fall far short of him!

Being able to receive Great Thearch Huang Shi’s guidance is of paramount honor, and he will be able to brag for 1,000 years!

…

However, Shen Tian was not happy. Instead, he was worried.

What’s going on?

Is it possible that my fame has reached the Great Thearch Huang Shi’s ears?

This is not good!

If even an existence on the level of Great Thearch Huang Shi knows of me, then doesn’t that mean those evil cultivators from the Evil Spirit Sect have their eyes on me?

Looks like I have caused too much of a commotion recently!

At that thought, Shen Tian suddenly felt anxious!

He had successfully cultivated the second section of the Blood God Sutra and learned the True Spirit Rotation Technique, so even if his real body was killed, he could instantly shift his soul to his clone and directly revive using his clone’s body.

Unless the opponent could instantly annihilate all of Shen Tian’s clones, Shen Tian would be immortal. He might not be able to defeat all the powerful cultivators in the five regions with such a cultivation technique, but he had nothing to lose.

There were only a few that could truly threaten Shen Tian’s life throughout the whole five regions.

However, it was a pity that this world was not very peaceful as there were just too many weird incidents.

Would there be an existence with a special ability that could counter the Blood God Sutra?

Shen Tian was not completely sure of such a point either!

In the end, the five regions were only the mortal world. However, it was strange how the Celestial World would pay so much attention to this world.

Be it the God of War Pagoda, Chaotic Star Island, Primordial Battlefield, and so on… There were plenty of weird things that no one knew, so what if there was something that could counter the Blood God Sutra!

Shen Tian still thought that it was better to be safer first and raise his strength as quickly as possible.

Only if he was powerful enough would he not need to care about all kinds of threats and dangers!

It was quite a good choice to enter Jixia Academy to study. It was renowned as the best place to study in the five regions, and one could increase their strength rapidly!

Meanwhile, it was also protected by the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty’s powerful cultivators. Thus, the Evil Spirit Sect should not be able to infiltrate it, right!?

…

Shen Tian looked at the War King. “Senior War King, I am honored by such kindness!”

The reason Shen Tian agreed was not only to increase his strength as fast as possible but, more importantly, Jixia Academy was a place where prodigies from all lands gathered!

As long as they were prodigies, most of them would have high providence or were even Children of Providences that surpassed other prodigies!

A place where so many prodigies gathered, such a big sheep pan— Dream place to study!

How could I miss such an opportunity to study in such a place? I must go freeload off them!

The War King smiled and said, “Very good, very good! From today onward, you’ll follow me to Jixia Academy.”

Seeing that Shen Tian had agreed, the War King was satisfied. It was also mainly because he wanted to see just how extraordinary the Divine Firmament Saint for even the Great Thearch to invite him.

Could this Divine Firmament Saint’s talent be on par with that person with polycoria?

Between the two of them, just who would be stronger?

Shen Tian nodded and was excited.

His providence had decreased, and he had yet to recover it, so he felt insecure.

Shen Tian would not let go of such a great opportunity of going to Jixia Academy and would definitely freeload off some fortuitous opportunities!

Here I come, Junior Sisters and Brothers of Jixia Academy!

Afterward, the War King left as he still had to converse with the Divine Firmament’s Sacred Leader and sacred leaders of the various sacred grounds.

At that moment, the edict token in the War King’s hands suddenly turned into a bright golden light when entered the God of War Pagoda.

A majestic golden figure appeared within the God of War Pagoda, and a cultured voice sounded. “Huang Shi greets Senior Ye! How have you been doing in the thousands of years that we’ve not met, Senior?”

…

The Saint Inauguration Ceremony ended soon, but the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was still very lively.

It was mainly because Jixia Academy had expanded their intake, so Golden Core Sixth Refinement Stage and above prodigies were extremely excited.

Just nicely, most of the prodigies from the various sacred grounds had gathered at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

As such, they could also follow the War King to Jixia Academy.

The five regions were not as peaceful as they seemed, thanks to the restless Evil Spirit Sect that was ready to cause trouble. Its existence was extremely threatening to the young prodigies.

In the past 10,000 years, the Evil Spirit Sect had assassinated prodigies from the various sects.

Many prodigies had already died in the Evil Spirit Sect’s hands before they could become stronger.

That made many sects focus on the protection of their prodigies.

Meanwhile, if they could head to Jixia Academy, they could be protected by the War King. They would naturally be much safer.

After all, the War King was a Nine Tribulation Great Sage, so even the Evil Spirit Sect would not dare to act rashly.

The numerous prodigies were waiting to head to Jixia Academy.

It was a dream place for numerous prodigies as it was full of fortuitous opportunities that they yearned for.

Many prodigies from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground were also preparing. Besides Shen Tian, who the Great Thearch had personally mentioned, true disciples at Golden Core Sixth Refinement Stage and above would also head there together.

That was the case for the top four prodigies of the Divine Firmament—Zhang Yunxi, Zhang Yunting, Fang Chang, and Zhao Hao.

Their strength had increased to Peak-Stage Nascent Soul after consuming the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills.

Even if Jixia Academy did not expand their intake, they would be able to enter it due to their strength and talent.

The four of them could not help but be excited as they were able to travel together with Shen Tian again.

Since Shen Tian was widely known as the Son of Providence, it was naturally the best to be able to attend Jixia Academy with him!

That also caused the number of prodigies heading to Jixia Academy to be far more than previously!

It was a good thing that the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty was well-prepared and had directly brought a Sage artifact flying vessel, which could accommodate everyone.

That humongous flying vessel floated on top of the sacred ground, and splendid energy of laws could be seen surrounding it.

The bright golden-colored flying vessel looked like it was coated with Divine Gold and was impenetrable.

A golden barrier completely enveloped the flying vessel and emitted a powerful aura.

The Sage artifact was specially created by the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty and could block attacks from True Sages.

The surrounding people could not help but gasp in awe. Only the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty had enough resources to build such a Sage artifact flying vessel!

Therefore, there was no need to worry during the trip to Jixia Academy. Not only did they have a Sage artifact with such powerful defensive abilities, but a Nine Tribulation Great Sage was also present!

No one would dare to attack!

“Let’s head out!”

The War King’s voice resounded, and the entire flying vessel flew into the sky while leaving behind a trail of gorgeous rainbows, heading toward Middle Ground.

Middle Ground, within the Evil Spirit Palace…

The resplendent and magnificent palace was grandeur as if it was a sacred place for Buddhism.

The surroundings were filled with Buddhist items, such as golden Buddha statues, zafu, wooden fish, and so on.

However, those Buddhist treasures were all dyed in black light, and there was no holy aura at all.

Some golden Buddha statues’ eyes were red and seemed to be filled with bloodlust, while others had turned completely pitch-black and emitting an evil aura.

In that case, this place did not seem like a sacred place for Buddhism. Instead, it looked like a land of evil.

Meanwhile, there was an extremely sinister figure on the black zafu.

On one side was pitch-black light, while on the other was resplendent golden light. It was as if the Buddha and demons coexisted in one body.

It was the Evil Spirit Sect’s Lifeless King!

The Lifeless King suddenly opened his eyes, and a crimson light with incomparable sharpness was shot out of his eyes.

However, his aura was much weaker than before. Evidently, his strength had declined.

“That damned Shen Tian actually caused me to lose two of my Dao bodies!”

Lifeless King’s future self had died due to that astounding sword aura, and even his original body had been injured heavily.

He had been resting for about a month, and only now did his injury stabilize.

However, the Lifeless King’s strength could not be compared to the past.

Not only did his strength decrease by quite a few levels after losing two Dao bodies, but he had also wasted 1,000 years of cultivation.

Even his cultivation technique of three bodies had faced a great obstacle!

Lifeless King originally planned to cultivate his three bodies to the extreme before merging them.

This way, his cultivation level might advance and reach an unprecedented stage.

However, two Dao bodies had been destroyed, making the Lifeless King completely lose such a thought.

Without thousands of years, he basically would not be able to improve anymore.

Even if he did form those two Dao bodies again, numerous resources and lots of effort would have to be spent. Therefore, it was no wonder the Lifeless King hated Shen Tian to his core!

However, the Lifeless King also realized that Shen Tian was simply too strange.

His past self had been directly destroyed by the pagoda when trying to kill Shen Tian while his Evil Spirit Sect army had been completely wiped out!

His future self had also been suddenly sliced into pieces by a sword aura when on the way to deal with Shen Tian.

Everything had happened because he had wanted to finish off Shen Tian.

That made Lifeless King extremely solemn.

If any mishaps happened when he finished off Shen Tian, he would really die this time.

The Lifeless King swore, “Shen Tian, the day when I cultivate my three bodies again will be the day of your death!”

The Lifeless King decided to find Shen Tian and take revenge after his battle strength was restored.

However, that did not mean he would let Shen Tian off the hook.

…

“If that is so, then I’ll just take the interest from your family members first.

“The imperial family of the Country of Fire? 13th Prince?

“Hmph, just you wait!”

The Lifeless King’s sneer reverberated throughout the whole palace!
