A providence halo floated above Shen Xiao’s head, enshrouded and bright.
Chaotic divine light continued to linger around it, seeming extremely dazzling.
Shen Tian learned that the location of the fortuitous opportunity was on a cliff not far away from the image that appeared on Shen Xiao’s providence halo.
Originally, Shen Xiao would be chased down by the Evil Spirit race. After fleeing for over five kilometers, she would arrive at the cliff where it was a dead-end.
In the end, Shen Xiao had no choice but to jump off the cliff.
Originally, with Shen Xiao’s age and strength, she could not have walked that far.
However, those Evil Spirits would not kill her directly. Instead, they would tease her and try to make her die in fear.
Shen Xiao would be lucky not to die, and she would instead obtain a huge fortuitous opportunity after the jump.
On the other hand, those Evil Spirits would be directly transformed into ash because of the restrictions placed around the fortuitous opportunity.
Yes, villains would always die.
...
After confirming their destination, Shen Tian turned to Shen Xiao and said, “Xiaoxiao, let’s go. It’s time to leave.”
There was no time to lose. It was more important to help Shen Xiao obtain her fortuitous opportunity and improve her strength.
Shen Tian also wanted to quickly investigate the situation in the five regions.
Shen Xiao nodded and said, “Yes, Master!”
She looked back at the village she had grown up in with sorrow in her eyes. Her family and memories from the past were all buried here, so how could she not feel dejected?
Shen Tian gently flicked his sleeve and burst forth with boundless domain power.
In that instant, heaven and earth trembled, and divine radiance rained down.
Endless starlight scattered down like a river of stars, covering heaven and earth.
The surrounding space surged and enveloped the entire village, completely concealing it in the endless void. This place became like a tomb that was isolated from the world, allowing the dead to rest in peace.
Shen Tian turned and left. “Let’s go!”
Shen Xiao nodded gratefully.
The two of them left together, heading south.
...
Soon, they reached a cliff.
There were countless ravines here, and everywhere was filled with jagged and strange rocks that were extremely precipitous.
Although this place was a cliff, it was extremely ordinary. There was nothing special about it.
Heavenly Venerable cultivators could easily reach the bottom of the cliff.
Shen Xiao asked curiously, “Master, why are we here?”
Shen Tian smiled faintly and pretended to be mysterious. “We’ll find out later.”
He grabbed Shen Xiao’s hand and flew down the cliff.
Soon, Shen Tian arrived at a cave halfway down the cliff.
In the original fortuitous encounter, Shen Xiao would jump off the cliff. She would then fall right into the cave and barely manage to survive.
Shen Tian pulled Shen Xiao into the cave and slowly entered.
The cave was extremely spacious. It did not look like there was any treasure.
Shen Tian didn’t mind and started searching the stone wall.
Soon, he found a peculiar spot on the stone wall and pressed it lightly.
Instantly, the mountain rocks shook, and the stone walls opened up.
Dazzling divine light burst forth, dazzling to the extreme and overflowing with brilliance.
A dense light hole appeared behind the stone wall. The aura inside was majestic and contained a world inside.
Shen Tian frowned when he saw such a scene. It was precisely because this place was too ordinary that no one had any desire to explore it.
Otherwise, the legacy might have already been taken away by someone else.
...
Shen Tian smirked and pulled Shen Xiao into the light cave.
Light flashed, drawing their figures away.
When the two of them appeared, they were already in another space.
This place was vast and boundless, with no end in sight.
The world was surrounded by hazy mist, incomparably mysterious as if they were in a primordial world where the world was just born.
In the center of this world, a huge palace appeared.
The palace was magnificent and majestic.
It stood towering between heaven and the earth, and it emanated an extremely dignified aura as if it intended to make heaven and the earth submit to it.
“Master, what is this place?”
Shen Xiao’s eyes were filled with shock.
She did not expect such a grand palace to be hidden here.
It was simply too mysterious.
Shen Tian smiled faintly. “Holy Emperor’s Palace!”
The words ‘Holy Emperor’s Palace’ were engraved on the palace gates.
The strokes of the words engraved seemed to contain a deep meaning and power.
If one sensed carefully, they would discover that these words were drawn by a supreme expert and that their might was vast and immeasurable.
The shock in Shen Xiao’s eyes intensified. She had never seen such a spectacular scene before.
“Xiaoxiao, let’s go in!”
Shen Tian reminded Shen Xiao and led her forward.
At that moment, the door slowly opened, revealing the path to heaven.
Shen Tian entered the palace without hesitation.
...
Just as the two of them entered the palace, heaven and earth underwent a drastic change, and countless starlight specks emerged.
A figure walked out of the void. His figure was incomparably imposing, towering between heaven and earth, his aura vast and immeasurable.
The golden battle armor on his body shone brightly and emitted a terrifying aura.
A domineering aura emanated from his body, spreading through the world.
He seemed to have a powerful aura, giving off a type of unmatched heroic bearing of a monarch overlooking the world!
This person stood in the void as if he was a supreme monarch ruling over a great world, making all clans submit.
...
Shen Tian’s eyes widened in shock.
This person’s aura was terrifying, far stronger than anyone he had seen before.
However, Shen Tian could sense that this person was merely a remnant soul that was extremely weak and could disappear at any moment.
Even so, the aura he emitted was still sufficient to look down on the heavens and all the heroes in the world.
This person was absolutely a supreme existence!
...
At that moment, that figure looked over with a deep gaze. His eyes were very shocking, as if endless cosmos swirled about in them, vast and boundless.
He spoke with a solemn expression, and his words resounded through the sky and shook the hearts of all.
“I am the first Human Emperor—Sui!
“Once you guys enter this place, you will be fated to receive my inheritance.
“I hope that you can bring my heritage to greater heights and help humanity escape danger by fighting against the Evil Spirits.”
With that said, he raised his hand and pointed at the void.
In an instant, the sky cracked.
Two beams of light shot into the minds of Shen Tian and Shen Xiao.
After doing all of this, the first Human Emperor’s figure directly disappeared, disappearing from this world.
Shen Tian’s eyes were filled with respect.
This Holy Emperor Palace should be the Bodhimanda of the first-generation Human Emperor, Sui!
However, based on the current situation, the First Human Emperor had only left behind a few inheritances. Not even his remnant soul was here.
After all, it had been unimaginably difficult for Sui to fight against three Immortal Emperors.
Although the First Human Emperor had forcefully dragged the three Immortal Emperors down with him, he had been completely annihilated in this realm.
He had probably set up this place in advance so as to prevent the human lineage from being easily severed.
...
The admiration in Shen Tian’s eyes intensified.
This was a powerhouse worthy of respect. He had the unparalleled magnanimity to protect the common people.
Even if he died, he was still concerned about the safety of this world.
Shen Tian cupped his hands towards the void. “Senior Human Emperor, we will not let you down. We pledge our lives to protect the five regions and resist the Evil Spirits!”
This was respect for the strong, as well as the respect one should have for one’s predecessor.
At the side, Shen Xiao stared at Shen Tian with a trembling gaze. She held her small hands tightly, and strong willpower burst out from her thin body.
Master’s goal is my goal.
No matter what, I have to protect Master.
I will protect this realm!
Time ticked by...
The divine light that had entered their minds earlier slowly turned into information and power for the two to absorb.
Contained within was complicated and obscure content. Even with Shen Tian’s cultivation, he couldn’t immediately absorb it.
This power was too mystical, involving the Grand Dao of heaven and earth. It was profound and unfathomable.
Shen Tian knew that this inheritance was the Tinder Sutra.
He also had a Tinder Sutra in his hand, which he had obtained from the Human Emperor’s Palace.
Shen Tian hadn’t fully comprehended it yet and didn’t know much about it.
Presently, the first-generation Human Emperor’s direct inheritance was far more precious than the ancient book.
Not only did this inheritance contain the Tinder Sutra, but it also contained the first Human Emperor’s true comprehension.
The Human Emperor’s inheritance could save Shen Tian years of bitter cultivation.
...
Shen Xiao had already fallen into silence.
The First Human Emperor had personally imparted this knowledge to them, so the complex content had become simple and clear.
Even Shen Xiao was able to comprehend it slowly. Her aura was growing stronger and stronger.
Shen Tian also closed his eyes and began cultivating.
Soon, he comprehended the profundities within, which were like the starry sea of the universe, boundless and vast.
He enjoyed the baptism of the Heavenly Dao. His state of mind had undergone an inexplicable transformation.
This inheritance was too mysterious. Even though Shen Tian had a Connate Constitution, he could not control the power immediately.
After all, the Tinder Sutra was an inheritance with endless possibilities.
The Chaotic Tinder Sutra that Shen Tian cultivated was only a branch of the Tinder Sutra and contained only a portion of its profoundness.
Now that he had obtained the Tinder Sutra, Shen Tian had another epiphany.
Three days later...
Shen Tian opened his eyes. The aura in his body had become even more majestic.
Dazzling divine light circulated around his body, emitting a mysterious and unfathomable power.
After this period of enlightenment, his gains were not shallow.
At present, Shen Tian had already comprehended nearly 90% of the Tinder Sutra.
The last 10% was a portion that was too obscure and temporarily impossible for him to understand.
However, he was confident that it wouldn’t take long for him to grasp it completely.
Furthermore, while he was comprehending the Tinder Sutra, Shen Tian discovered something strange that shocked him.
Although the Chaotic Tinder Sutra originated from the Tinder Sutra, their attributes were different.
However, during this period, these two different forces had vaguely merged together.
In other words, thanks to the Tinder Sutra, Shen Tian’s comprehension of the Chaotic Tinder Sutra had advanced another step.
Similarly, the Tinder Sutra was strengthened by the Chaotic Tinder Sutra.
The two verified each other, producing an unprecedented change.
Shen Tian’s body was crystal clear, and divine light curled around it, making it seem incomparably strange.
Ancient talisman markings coiled around his body, and they were mottled and profound as if they were connected to the Heavenly Dao and contained supreme might.
At the same time, Shen Tian’s physical body was also transforming. His flesh and blood became stronger, containing the power of the powerhouses from the Desolate Era.
His Blood Qi soared into the sky. This power was simply too tremendous, boundless, and unimaginable.
Shen Tian felt that the toughness of his body was like that of an ancient monster, able to shake the sun, moon, and stars.
Roar!
He released a great roar, shattering the clouds in the heavens into powder.
Terrifying Blood Qi gathered above Shen Tian’s head like a tidal wave and formed a monstrous oven!
This was a sign that his fleshly body had reached a supreme level. It was inconceivable.
One had to know that Shen Tian was still at the peak of the Mighty Prowess realm.
Without successfully transcending the tribulation, his physical body had yet to reach its peak.
However, with the power of his supreme physique, it was enough to reach the limits of his physical body before he had even transcended.
Before reaching the Sage level, Shen Tian’s physical body was already comparable to a Sub-Immortal.
And now, his Human Emperor Body had taken another step forward, and his physical strength had increased once again.
He could fight against Perfected Immortals with just his body and flesh now!
If he were to break through the Tribulation of Life and Death, his flesh would be baptized by the Heavenly Tribulation, allowing him to evolve once again.
In that case, Shen Tian had the confidence to tear apart ordinary Perfected Immortals.
However, breaking through from the peak of the Mighty Prowess realm to the Life and Death Tribulation would definitely cause Shen Tian to lose a large amount of providence.
Thus, Shen Tian did not plan to make a breakthrough.
...
Shen Tian suddenly felt his body lighten, and a feeling of floating like a fairy followed. He was very familiar with this feeling. He had experienced it more than once before.
This was the feeling of his providence increasing!
Shen Tian was overjoyed and excited.
My providence has increased again!
I’ve waited too long for this day!
Shen Xiao had obtained the Tinder Sutra inheritance with Shen Tian’s help. Thus, Shen Tian also received a certain amount of providence in return.
However, it was different this time!
Shen Xiao was a Daughter of Providence with a chaotic halo above her head. Her providence was unimaginably vast.
The providence she received was absolutely terrifying.
Shen Tian couldn’t contain his excitement and took out the mirror.
He was extremely excited as he looked at the dazzling light above his head.
Purple light lingered above his head, and it looked extremely dazzling.
The light-purple providence halo actually became deeper and deeper at a speed visible to the naked eye, eventually reaching a deep purple color.
Shen Tian’s body shook violently.
The increase in providence this time was the greatest that he had received so far in one go.
More importantly, it had come at the right time!
He could use this opportunity to break through from the Mighty Prowess realm and enter the Life Death Calamity realm.
Although a breakthrough in cultivation would cause his providence to decrease, he should be able to still have some excess of the additional providence he had just gotten.
...
Shen Tian didn’t hesitate to mobilize the power in his body to challenge the Life and Death Tribulation.
In an instant, endless divine light surged out, and multicolored light overflowed.
An incomparably mighty aura erupted from his body, shooting straight into the clouds.
The world seemed to have changed, and the sun and moon lost their color.
The tribulation clouds gathered, extremely thick and filled with a heart-palpitating aura.
The pitch-black tribulation clouds blotted out the sky and the sun, covering the entire sky as they erupted with devastating power.
As far as the eye could see, the tribulation clouds were everywhere.
There seemed to be 3,000 terrifying beings roaring within it, and their roars shook the sky.
Each terrifying being in the clouds was scary beyond comprehension.
If anyone saw this scene, they would definitely be scared out of their wits.
This tribulation was way too terrifying as if it wanted to slaughter the great world and exterminate all life.
...
The power of this tribulation was not the slightest bit weaker than the 3,000 Dao Tribulation that Shen Tian had previously transcended.
This was because this tribulation was the 3,000 Godfiend Tribulation.
If the 3,000 Dao Tribulation was the most terrifying Heavenly Tribulation in the Qi Refinement system, the 3,000 Godfiend Tribulation would be the most terrifying Heavenly Tribulation in the Godfiend Body Tempering system.
According to rumors, only Primordial Godfiends that were born from the origins of the world could withstand such a tribulation.
Shen Tian fearlessly soared into the sky. He stood in the void, his body emitting endless divine light.
Chaotic aura swept out, surging and covering his entire body.
Shen Tian was like an otherworldly immortal. He wore a chaotic battle armor and wanted to fight a bloody battle with the gods and devils.
Rumble!
Thunder rumbled and resounded through the sky.
The tribulation lightning became more and more profound, flickering with extreme radiance, making one’s mind tremble.
In the tribulation clouds, the might of the 3,000 figures overflowed into the heavens, making the heavens tremble.
These figures seemed to be able to completely destroy this world.
...
“Fight!”
A howl that tore through the sky could be heard!
Shen Tian’s demeanor was peerless. He stepped on the void and took the initiative to blast toward the tribulation clouds.
As if influenced by Shen Tian, the tribulation clouds became increasingly violent.
Boom!
Countless bolts of tribulation lightning descended, and they emanated dazzling divine light that shattered the sky.
The heavens were covered in endless lightning radiance in that instant, which covered the entire heaven and earth.
The lightning was sharp and dazzling, emitting an incomparably terrifying might.
The lightning tribulation transformed into 3,000 Godfiends that roared, shaking the heavens.
Their expressions were ferocious while their entire bodies were covered in terrifying tribulation light, and they shattered the sky with a wave of their hands.
,000 Godfiends appeared, looking as if they wanted to overturn heaven and earth.
The sky changed abruptly, and it seemed as if a boundless rain of blood had appeared.
The power that came from them was too berserk, able to easily kill half-Immortals.
Shen Tian’s expression did not change. He bravely went forward.
He was able to control endless amounts of chaotic aura, bringing with him supreme power as he battled against the 3,000 Godfiends.
In that instant, the heavens split apart.
Shen Tian’s aura was overwhelming. He spread his arms wide, releasing endless divine might.
He displayed unmatched power, fighting intensely against the 3,000 Godfiends.
Every strike of his would scatter away several Godfiends, turning them into tribulation lights.
The sky was instantly shattered as boundless divine light covered heaven and the earth, completely enveloping this world.
Terrifying fluctuations swept through heaven and the earth, causing this world to tremble violently.
The supreme battle here seemed to be going to destroy everything nearby.
The power of the 3,000 Godfiend Tribulation was indeed extremely terrifying, able to easily devour Sub-Immortal experts.
This was especially the case when the 3,000 Godfiends all appeared at the same time. Even Perfected Immortals would bleed when going against them.
However, when their attacks landed on Shen Tian, they only caused his body to tremble slightly and didn’t affect him too much.
Shen Tian’s body flowed with divine light, and it contained terrifying divine might as if it contained boundless power.
Under the augmentation of this power, he became more and more courageous as he fought, killing until heaven and earth trembled, till all the Godfiends all turned to specks of light.
In just a moment, the 3,000 Godfiend Tribulation was completely torn apart by Shen Tian, and even the tribulation clouds in the sky were forcefully dispersed.
Shen Tian stepped forward, his entire body bathed in the terrifying tribulation light.
At that moment, Shen Tian was like a peerless God of War, his bearing matchless.
Now that the heavenly tribulation was destroyed, Shen Tian’s Godfiend cultivation also successfully broke through to the Life Death Calamity realm, increasing his strength greatly.
...
As if recalling something, Shen Tian took out the mirror again.
The light halo above his head was still dark purple.
This time, Shen Tian’s providence didn’t decrease because of his breakthrough.
Tsss!
This... This is not right!
Shen Tian was bewildered and muttered to himself, “What’s going on? Why didn’t my providence decrease from the breakthrough this time? This doesn’t make sense!”
Shen Tian frowned, confused.
Cultivating the Tinder Sutra would cause one’s providence to drop. This was inevitable.
This was something that had lasted for nearly a million years without any changes.
But now, even though he had broken through to the Life Death Calamity realm, he did not lose any providence. This was simply unbelievable.
Could it be because of the Human Emperor’s Seal?
Shen Tian could sense that the Human Emperor’s Seal in his palm was emitting a mystical power to protect his body.
The curse produced when breaking through was unable to invade his body because of the seal.
Thus, Shen Tian’s providence didn’t decrease this time.
...
Thinking of this, Shen Tian was overjoyed.
He did not expect the Human Emperor’s Seal to have such an effect. It was too awesome.
With such a treasure around, he wouldn’t have to worry about his providence decreasing in the future!
This was a joyous occasion!
Without these shackles, he would no longer have to suppress his cultivation.
In that case, Shen Tian had the confidence to catch up to those veteran powerhouses in the shortest time possible.
The higher his cultivation was at such a critical moment, the more he could change the situation!
