I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 260 The Invincible Sword Embryo

Sword Venerable Long River, Li Canglan, knew of Shen Tian.

In reality, Li Canglan had already heard of Shen Tian before he entered the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.

In fact, if not for Zhang Yunxi and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ appearance, Shen Tian would have been “pulled” over to join the Grand White Grotto-Heaven.

Actually, Li Canglan didn’t feel too friendly toward Shen Tian at first. After all, he was the strictest father in the entire Eastern Wilderness!

There was no way he would feel friendly toward a lady-killer like Shen Tian.

But after meeting him in person, Li Canglan felt that he had been too quick to judge. This youth was indeed a rare specimen of the perfect-looking guy, especially that extraordinary demeanor of his—Li Canglan felt like he was looking at a younger version of himself.

What an exceptional young man!

Of course, the great Sword Venerable Long River was not a superficial person.

Looks aside, Shen Tian’s Sword Dao aura was what truly astonished Li Canglan.

Divine Sword!

That’s right. The legendary Divine Sword Constitution!

Usually, only those who had a very advanced understanding of Sword Dao and attained the heavens’ recognition would be able to attract the divine sword intent and evolve a Divine Sword Constitution.

There had been quite a number of exceptional swordsmen in the Eastern Wilderness over the past 10,000 years. However, only a rare few possessed the Divine Sword Constitution.

Nearly all those who possessed such a constitution had become the most powerful Sword Sages in their generation.

One could dominate over everyone and everything with just one sword in hand.

100 years ago, Li Canglan was already confident of overcoming the tribulation to become a Sage. However, he didn’t hurry for the lightning tribulation partly because he wanted to continue strengthening his foundation.

At the same time, he hoped to further enhance his sword intent before undergoing the tribulation so that he could make use of the Heavenly Tribulation power to attain a Divine Sword Constitution.

He never imagined that Shen Tian would manage to attain his long-coveted dream constitution.

A mere Golden Body realm practitioner was able to possess the Divine Sword Constitution!

This meant that he possessed the most unique type of Dao Seed in Sword Dao. It was without a doubt the invincible Sword Embryo.

If he could take him in as his disciple, Li Canglan believed he could produce a world-dominating Sword Sage. He could even become a Sword Immortal, second to none!

Yes, to be honest, Li Canglan regretted it.

If he had gone to the Country of Fire a few months ago, instead of sending that scoundrel Zi Yang go, he might have detected Shen Tian’s potential to achieve a Divine Sword Constitution. If so, he would have gladly fought Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus to become Shen Tian’s Master.

Sigh... It’s too late for regrets now!

When I return, I must give that short-sighted and foolish Zi Yang a sound thrashing!

“Are you Shen Tian?”

Li Canglan finally spoke after some time had passed.

Shen Tian could more or less guess Li Canglan’s identity.

He said in a respectful manner, “My humble greetings, Senior Li. Your great reputation precedes you.”

In Shen Tian’s eyes, this was the world’s strictest father and not someone that he could ever afford to provoke.

After all, this type of father was capable of anything once incensed.

Having flirted with his daughter, Shen Tian felt very sheepish in front of Li Canglan.

But unexpectedly, Li Canglan didn’t give him a dour face.

On the contrary, the number one Sword Venerable in Eastern Wilderness nodded in satisfaction.

“You are rather well-mannered.

“Shen Tian, you helped Lian’er grow her Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash in the Myriad Spirit Garden. I owe you one. “Why don’t I do this? I see that you are a rare talent for the sword. If you are willing, I can pass on the Sword Dao to you. “We do not have a master-disciple relationship, and you will be free to leave the Grand White Grotto-Heaven after mastering your Sword Dao. How about that?”

Go to the Grand White Grotto-Heaven to learn sword skills for three months?

Learn about Sword Dao or something? The art of catching a blade with your bare hands?

Right!

All doubts aside, this was something Shen Tian really didn’t dare to agree to. Shen Ao had revealed some stuff over the past few days in the sacred ground.

Shen Tian felt that Sword Venerable Long River’s training methods should be respected... from afar.

This old man was already so harsh when training his own son. Shen Tian would be worse off.

If he really went with this old man to the Grand White Grotto-Heaven, he would endure so much hardship that even his own mother wouldn’t recognize him afterward!

Moreover, do I really need you to learn swordplay?

The God of War Pagoda had a vast array of sword techniques. Shen Tian could pick and choose any one of them any time he liked.

Shen Tian said in a resigned voice, “I fully appreciate Senior Li’s kind intentions. But I am the Divine Firmament Saint, and it is really not convenient for me to learn sword skills from you.”

Li Canglan’s face darkened slightly.

This punk! When have I ever taken the initiative like this before?

How many people wanted to learn Sword Dao from me, but I couldn’t be bothered to even give them a second look?

Today, I finally felt the urge to teach someone but was rejected. Are you going to waste that wonderful sword potential?

Hmph!

Li Canglan was proud, so he didn’t insist after Shen Tian’s rejection.

He just flung his sleeves and walked toward the God of War Pagoda. He wanted to put up a mind-blowing performance in this pagoda.

He wanted to let Shen Tian know just how invincible a true sword cultivator was. Wherever the sword wanted to go, nothing would stand in its way!

“Is Sword Venerable Long River preparing to enter the pagoda to battle?”

“This will be exciting. I wonder how high Sword Venerable Long River will be ranked according to the Celestial World standards.”

“The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, Zhang Longyuan, is only ranked 6th on the God Of War List. Sword Venerable Long River should be in the top ten!” “Not necessarily. The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s sixth ranking was achieved 1,000 years ago. He might be even more powerful now.”

“Sword Venerable Long River is the number one Sword Venerable in the entire Eastern Wilderness. There is a chance of him entering the top five, or even the top three.”

Sword Venerable Long River’s battle attracted a bevy of powerful practitioners as spectators. They were all very curious just how high this formidable Sword Venerable would be able to climb in the rankings.

A multi-colored divine light shot out toward Sword Venerable Long River, transporting him into the God of War Pagoda.

“Youn- Middle-aged swordsman. Welcome to the God of War platform.

“You can spar all you like with prodigies from both the Celestial World and the normal world on this platform.

“If you beat these prodigies, you can have all kinds of precious secret legacy techniques.

“Also, if you perform well enough, your name will be carved onto the God of War Tablet!”

The Pagoda Spirit’s voice rang out. Two tablets slowly rose on either side of Sword Venerable Long River.

Rows of names were carved onto the ancient tablets.

“The God of War Tablet records the rankings of all the prodigies from this world who have battled in the pagoda.

“The God of War New Talent Tablet records the rankings of prodigies only from the current century.”

Sword Venerable Long River thought about it. He scanned the tablets with sharp eyes as if trying to find something.

After some time, he asked in a mild voice, “I heard that only a Seven-Star Prodigy is able to get the God of War Pagoda to recognize them as its owner. Why is the first place on the table just a Six-Star Prodigy?”

The Pagoda Spirit answered, “This is because the Seven-Star Prodigy chose not to be named on the tablet.”

Sword Venerable Long River frowned slightly. “Seven-Star Prodigy? I am very curious as to how powerful a Seven-Star Prodigy is.”

The Pagoda Spirit answered, “Do you want to challenge a Seven-Star Prodigy? Your opponent will be chosen at random, and the cultivation levels of both sides will be suppressed to the same level.”

Sword Venerable Long River radiated with an intense battle aura. “Alright, I will challenge a Seven-Star Prodigy today then!”

“Challenge confirmed. Matching opponent...” “Matching complete. Let the battle begin!”
