Chapter 254 The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader Keeps Vibrating

“Tian’er, how was your experience with the previous battlefield trial?”

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s voice rang out from within his lightning and heavenly aura. He sounded very placid and emotionless.

But his question itself showed deep concern, and Shen Tian’s heart warmed.

He bowed. “Thank you, Master, for your concern. The trial went very smoothly.” The Sacred Leader said, “I heard that you were the first to discover those Evil Spirit sect disciples in this trial. You also disrupted their plans to resurrect the Evil Spirit Sect?

“Do you mind telling me how you disrupted their plans? But if it’s not convenient for you to do so, you can choose not to tell me.

“After all, it is very normal for a young man to have some secrets. I can understand.” Shen Tian was taken aback. He decided to think of some story to gloss things over. He spoke up. “Since Master is asking, I will definitely tell you everything.

“Actually, I was not the one who discovered those Evil Spirit sect disciples. It was Zhang San and the rest who encountered them during their training and were kidnapped.

“They sent a message out to Junior Brother Yundi right before they were captured. That is how we were able to turn up and rescue them.”

The Sacred Leader nodded. “You have done very well.

“According to current reports, those Evil Spirit sect disciples infiltrated the Primordial Battlefield for the goal of resurrecting the Evil Spirit Lord that was previously trapped in the battlefield.

“It was a very powerful Sub-Immortal Evil Spirit. If resurrected, it would have destroyed all living beings in Eastern Wilderness.

“Luckily, you found out in time, and the Eastern Wilderness managed to avoid a total bloodbath.

“You just joined the trial on a whim and managed to disrupt such a major plan by the Evil Spirit Sect. “Tian’er, you are indeed the Son of Providence gifted by the heavens to the sacred ground. “I’m very happy, Tian’er!”

Shen Tian blushed slightly. “Master, you are too kind. It’s... all because Master has taught me well.”

The Sacred Leader’s lightning and heavenly aura rippled gently. “You don’t need to be modest in front of me. Heavenly Venerable Scarlet Dance and Heavenly Venerable White Lotus have interrogated the Evil Spirit sect members over the past few days, but every one of them has a special memory lock in their minds. The moment we touch their most core secrets, their divine consciousness will self-implode.

“As a result, our interrogations have not yielded much. We only managed to confirm the locations of about a dozen of their less important bases. “One of these bases is in your Country of Fire.

“Those scattered bases are already under the surveillance of Divine Firmament’s and Jade Lake’s disciples. If not for the fact that we are worried about alarming them too early, the two sacred grounds can ambush them anytime.”

Shen Tian nodded. “Master is wise. All of us have a responsibility to fight against the Evil Spirit Sect. Can I do anything to help?” The Sacred Leader said calmly, “It is good that you have the drive to get rid of evil. But your cultivation level is still not high enough yet.

“The Evil Spirit sect disciples will not adhere to the principles of fairness and mutual respect. In their world, only the strong will prevail.

“You already have a powerful reputation in the Eastern Wilderness. If the Evil Spirit Sect takes note of you, you might be targeted by their Saint.

“Before you manage to attain a high enough level, I want you to be careful. Don’t put yourself in danger. It is best if you can keep a low profile and not do anything too extraordinary.

“I also kept a low profile during my time and managed to come of age and reach my full potential because of that. Otherwise, I might have already been a.s.sa.s.sinated by countless Saint-level powerhouses.”

Send their Saints to deal with me?

The corners of Shen Tian’s lips twitched.

Are they really that shameless?

I am now only at the Golden Body realm.

I might be able to defeat most Nascent Soul level cultivators, but it would be enough for them to send a Soul Formation Heavenly Venerable to attack me. I might still have a chance to flee then.

Perhaps I might even encounter some fortuitous opportunities during my escape and make a counterattack.

Asking a Saint-level powerhouse to take action against me—that’s like attacking a mosquito with a cannon!

Although Shen Tian had managed to successfully escape from the red-robed Sect Master previously, it was all due to luck. The red-robed Sect Master had underestimated Shen Tian and tried to brainwash him into joining his sect instead of attacking him seriously right from the start.

If not for that, Shen Tian would have been in serious danger and might not have had the time to tunnel into the ground then.

Indeed, I am not strong enough now and need to be more cautious.

At this thought, Shen Tian replied timidly, “I will take to heart Master’s advice.”

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader patted Shen Tian on the shoulder.

“Of course, this is just my own experience.

“To a normal prodigy, keeping a low profile is the safest way. But you are the Son of Providence, protected by the heavens.

“So if you prefer not to keep a low profile, you can continue about your way. There is no need for you to worry about some powerful hidden foe.

“Have a little faith. As long as your providence is high enough, you will be fine no matter what dangerous circ.u.mstances you find yourself in.

“The heavens will protect you.”

Shen Tian couldn’t help feeling exasperated as he looked at Zhang Longyuan and his rippling aura.

How many times must I say this? I am really not the Son of Providence!

Never mind. I will just try my best to be more careful in the future!

Otherwise, it would be quite tragic if I was smacked to death by their Saints.

Shen Tian asked respectfully, “Did Master specially summon me here to tell me this?”

The Sacred Leader shook his head. “Of course not. Tian’er, I hope to gain a general understanding of how you found the Evil Spirit Lord. This might prove very helpful when I interrogate the red-robed Sect Master and the rest. Will it be convenient for you to tell me?”

General understanding of how I found the Evil Spirit Lord? Shen Tian frowned slightly. That would reveal how I attained the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk!

Shen Tian found this very difficult to answer!

Shen Tian’s mind started spinning with ideas.

“Alright, I don’t dare to keep things from Master anyway. “To be honest, I have a special ability. I can vaguely detect the presence of any nearby precious artifacts and fortuitous opportunities.

“It is like some kind of instinctive gut feeling. It doesn’t happen that often but the accuracy is very high. I have almost never been wrong.

“I managed to find the First Essence Heavy Water, Nirvana Holy Liquid, and Feather Immortal Metal all because of this special sense.

“Back in the Primordial Battlefield, I could vaguely feel the presence of some treasure in the Dark Yin Plain. That was why I set forth to check it out. “But at the borders of that plain, I was blocked by thick Dark Yin Energy and didn’t dare to just barge in to investigate.

“Thereafter, I gained the acknowledgment of the G.o.d of War PaG.o.da, and only with that trump card in my pocket did I dare to venture in again.

“In the end, I discovered the seal of the Evil Spirit Lord in the center of that plain.”

What? The special ability to detect the presence of nearby precious artifacts and fortuitous opportunities? How is it that Tian’er possesses such a remarkable talent!?

On top of that, Tian’er was willing to truthfully share such a major secret with me?

The Sacred Leader’s aura rippled intensely after he listened to Shen Tian’s explanation.

Touched, I am truly very touched!

The Sacred Leader had read many miraculous stories about the Sons of Providence. One of them was that they all had special abilities.

They had the ability to help a deceased powerful pract.i.tioner be reborn into the body of a normal person, thus opening a new legendary chapter in life.

They had the ability to obtain powerful divine weapons and leverage upon their power to rise again. Some even had the ability to make contracts with old grandfathers, whom they could bring along anywhere they wanted. Old grandfathers who would devotedly guide them and help them in their cultivation.

Anyway, most Sons of Providence had their own special abilities. And most of them would never reveal it to anyone.

Shen Tian’s special ability was obviously more powerful than those other Sons of Providence. He could actually sense the presence of nearby fortuitous opportunities! In just a few short months, Shen Tian had managed to gather all five extraordinary items because of this special skill.

Was this an extraordinary talent or what? It was enough to drive one mad with envy!

Tian’er actually told me such a major secret. If this isn’t a sign of trust, nothing else is! So I am such a reliable and trustworthy Master in Tian’er’s heart? I am so touched! At this point, the Sacred Leader’s lightning and heavenly aura were vibrating intensely. The ripples were moving as vigorously as a breakdancer doing “the worm”.

It took quite some time before the Sacred Leader’s aura finally calmed down.

He looked at Shen Tian in all seriousness. “Apart from me, who else knows about your special ability?” Shen Tian shook his head. “No one else.”

In the past, when he had to bluff his way through, he had lied to say he was able to look into the future.

But for the Sacred Leader, this reason didn’t seem like something that would get past him. As a result, Shen Tian had thought of a new tale.

But the Sacred Leader was not thinking about that at all.

So I am the first to know?

Tian’er didn’t even tell his own parents and siblings? But he told me?

The Sacred Leader’s lightning and heavenly aura started to vibrate wildly again.

The Sacred Leader patted Shen Tian on the shoulder.

“This is a serious matter. Don’t tell anyone else.”

Shen Tian nodded. “I understand.”

The Sacred Leader nodded. “In the future, even after you get together with Yunxi, it is better not to tell her either.”

Shen Tian, “...”

Shen Tian replied, “Yes, Master. I will never tell anyone else.”

The Sacred Leader nodded in satisfaction. “Very good. Follow me now. We will go take a look at those Evil Spirit sect disciples! “In another 100 years, I will hand over the t.i.tle of the Sacred Leader. I hope that you will get more powerful as soon as possible. “Not just in terms of cultivation, but also management and strategic planning.

“Today will be a great opportunity for you to learn.”

With that, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader executed some hand seals and formed a doorway in s.p.a.ce.

The two of them stepped through it and appeared in a world created entirely by lightning

A red-robed man was hanging in the center of this world, completely bound by chains.

These chains were forged by the purest Mixed Divine Lightning-completely unbreakable and best for restraining Evil Spirit Sect members. In addition, lines of golden scriptures glowed on the red-robed Sect Master’s skin, completely sealing off his powers as a Saint-level pract.i.tioner. It was clear that as a Saint-level cultivator, the Sect Master was enjoying the VIP treatment.

Chains: Check

Seal: Check

Lightning Bolts: Check

Everything was arranged to a tee.

A lightning whip would lash out now and then, the sound crisp and clear!

The red-robed Sect Master smirked when he saw the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Shen Tian appear.

“No need to waste your breath. I won’t tell you anything. I am completely loyal to my sect. Even if you whip me 3,000 times, I will — Ah

“Never tell you anything. Whatever cruel torture methods you have, go ahead and use it on me— Ah

“Bring it on! Ah, Ah- Ah-“

Shen Tian was speechless as he watched the lightning whip lash out at the red-robed Sect Master.

What kind of R-rated evil technique did this guy practice?

Why does he not seem to feel any pain when lashed by the lightning whip? In fact, he looks like he is... enjoying it?

Can this kind of interrogation yield any results?
