I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 289: The Mysterious Bronze Ring

Qi Shaoxuan could not last any longer under Shen Tian’s insane attacks.

Soon, his Dharmic power was depleted, and the purple aura around him started to disperse. The light on his Heaven’s Halberd dimmed too.

Boom!

The last blow sent Qi Shaoxuan flying off the platform.

His Heaven’s Halberd fell off his hand and slammed against the ground.

Qi Shaoxuan coughed a mouthful of blood and dropped onto the ground. His face was blushed with embarrassment and anger.

Damn!

If my condition was better, there was no way I’d suffer this shameful defeat!

It was not Qi Shaoxuan’s fault for not healing his status to the fullest. Talented cultivators had more Dharmic power compared to others.

Qi Shaoxuan had never encountered issues like running out of Dharmic power before during his fights with other talented cultivators.

Even when his Dharmic power was low, there were always pills to recover on the spot.

As long as he had a short break, he could fully recover and continue the fight.

However, Qi Shaoxuan had never dreamt that he would be competing for the amount of Dharmic power in his second battle with Shen Tian.

There was no chance for him to consume any pill under Shen Tian’s Feather Immortal Metal attack. He had been forced to block and defend himself.

He had been hoping for Shen Tian to run out of Dharmic power before he made his counterattack.

The result was that he had not landed a single hit on the opponent even till the end of the match.

Miserable, that was just purely miserable.

Compared to the first battle, the second one was really unbearable. During their first battle, he had at least managed to fight evenly with the projection and even had the advantage at some point.

Qi Shaoxuan did not dare to look at the screen, knowing that there would be many negative remarks.

“Damn! If my status was full, there’s no way I’d lose!”

The livestream was stopped, and no one could see what happened on the platform.

Qi Shaoxuan took a deep breath and said softly, “Pagoda Spirit, can I... Can I have another try?”

The Pagoda Spirit spoke gently. “Young Saint, you had your chances. I really cannot make any more exceptions.”

Qi Shaoxuan said helplessly, “I promise this will be the last time!

“Also... Also, I only have enough money for one more try.”

Only have enough for one more?

That’s disappointing!

The Pagoda Spirit was helpless too. “I really wish I could help.”

Qi Shaoxuan bowed and continued. “I understand. I can add more money, 80,000! I can top up another 80,000 God of War points!

“As long as the pagoda is willing to give me another chance to fight with Shen Tian, I’m willing to use 80,000 God of War points as a bet!”

Seeing how sincere Qi Shaoxuan was, Ye Qingcang started smiling uncontrollably.

Is this the gambler Tian’er was talking about? I like him so much!

Too bad, he was still very poor.

Or else, Ye Qingcang felt that he could earn a huge fortune from him with his current mindset.

After thinking for a moment, the Pagoda Spirit’s soft voice sounded, “Fine, sigh...

“There are so many people cheering for you on the screen and asking me to give you another chance. I’ll give you one last chance. Please do not waste it!

“Go for it! I wish you all the best! You can do it!”

Qi Shaoxuan was so touched that he started crying.

He did not expect the God of War Pagoda to make an exception for him over and over again.

Seems like the pagoda values me a lot. If I were to come here earlier, the pagoda would belong to the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground instead.

Anyway, I will prove to the rest that I’m invincible!

Qi Shaoxuan activated his interspatial ring and poured out the treasures he had.

There was a huge amount of Spirit Stones, at least a few million of them worth a few hundred God of War points.

A few hundred tons of Purple Crystal Ore, a special ore in the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground that could be used to create Dharma artifacts. It was worth a few thousand God of War points.

Purple Light Mirror, a supreme-grade Spirit artifact, worth 10,000 God of War points. Demon Slaying Sword, a superior-grade Spirit artifact worth 3,000 God of War points.

...

There was a mountain of Spirit artifacts, Dharma artifacts, pills, spirit herbs.

Even so, he only forked out 50,000 God of War points. He was still short of 30,000.

Qi Shaoxuan blushed. He was considered the richest cultivator when he was young as he was Eastern Wilderness’ Son of Providence.

He had never experienced what ‘poverty’ meant.

However, he experienced it in the pagoda today.

Qi Shaoxuan said in disappointment, “Pagoda Spirit, this is all I have.”

The Pagoda Spirit said, “Purple Mansion Saint, your armor and weapon worth 100,000 God of War points.”

Qi Shaoxuan’s mouth twitched. “Pagoda Spirit, are you joking? These two pieces of equipment are extremely rare Divine artifacts. There’s no way I’ll sell these!”

Divine artifacts were very rare for cultivators. Even a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator might not have them.

Furthermore, the armor and weapon Qi Shaoxuan had were extremely rare.

Even a Son of Providence like him only had two items!

He could not think of the consequences without these items.

Although Qi Shaoxuan was desperate, he had not lost his sanity.

The Pagoda Spirit sighed. “But Saint, you only have 50,000 God of War points. You do not meet the requirement.”

Qi Shaoxuan started thinking hard for things that he could let go of.

After some time, he took a delicate jade box out of his storage ring and said, “There’s no way I’ll sell my armor and weapon. However, I would like you to look at this item here.”

He opened the box, and there was a normal ring in it.

The ring was rather simple. It looked like it was crafted from the most common bronze. There was nothing special about it at all.

Even an amateur blacksmith could tell this ring was normal. No one would be interested in it in any shops.

However, Qi Shaoxuan was a little reluctant.

“This is not a normal ring.

“Although it looks like it is made from normal bronze, it is indestructible. Not even a Sage could damage it.

“I would not have taken this out if my sect could understand exactly how this ring works. Can you please take a look at it?”

Not even a Sage could damage it?

Ye Qingcang’s eyes lit up.

The ring disappeared from the box and reappeared on Ye Qingcang’s hand.

He looked at the ring carefully and was surprised.

“That’s really weird. This ring is really made from normal bronze. How is that possible?”

Ye Qingcang made several hand seals and sent hundreds of seals into the ring.

However, none of them worked.

“Even I cannot do anything about it? This ring is really something!”

Ye Qingcang took a deep breath and kept the ring in the God of War Pagoda.

The Pagoda Spirit spoke again. “This ring is really special. Sadly, I have no idea how this ring works. I will price it at 50,000 God of War points.”

With a beep, there were 100,000 God of War points in Qi Shaoxuan’s account.

He planned to use this ring to trade back some Spirit Stones and pills.

He had nothing much left in his storage ring.

...

“Respectable Saint, since you have topped up more than 100,000, the pagoda is offering you a free healing meal set. Do you wish to use it now?”

Qi Shaoxuan was shocked by the Pagoda Spirit’s attitude change.

Being rich really makes a difference!

He was now addressed as ‘respectable Saint’ instead and offered a free healing meal.

That was exactly what he needed now!

“I’ll use it!”

As Qi Shaoxuan confirmed, a ray of purple light shone into his body.

Qi Shaoxuan felt he was recharged immediately.

His Dharmic power was full in a few seconds, and his stamina was recharged too.

He felt that he was even stronger than before!

“I’ll beat Shen Tian this time!”

“Pagoda Spirit, now! I’ll start the battle right away.”

The signal for the livestream was back, and Qi Shaoxuan appeared on the screen.

Many people were about to leave. When they saw what was on the screen, they sat down again.

They saw the golden vortex opposite Qi Shaoxuan appear again.

It was the same as before.

“Shen Tian, I’ll win you this time!”

Qi Shaoxuan held his halberd and was ready for the battle.

Qi Shaoxuan felt that something had awakened in his mind.

His weapon resonated with him, and dragon roars resounded on the platform again.

He had completely mastered the Eight Wildernesses Halberd style!

There was no way he would lose!

The audience did not bother why Qi Shaoxuan was paired with Shen Tian again.

Even a retard could tell there was some dark trade behind this.

But none of it mattered. This was the third time Qi Shaoxuan was fighting with Shen Tian’s projection.

It seemed like Qi Shaoxuan had gotten even stronger.

It would be an interesting fight!

...

“I’ll not give you any more chances. Purple Aura! Dragon Crowd!”

Qi Shaoxuan shouted, and his purple aura formed a giant net that covered the entire platform.

His Heaven’s Halberd emanated an aura too, forming hundreds of black dragons!

There were scales on every dragon, and they looked extremely real.

Roar!

Countless black dragons dashed at Shen Tian’s projection.

All the audience stood up in awe. They felt fear just looking at the dragons.

Some weaker cultivators even fainted and vomited from the sight.

This attack contained all of Qi Shaoxuan’s anger!

The net formed from his purple aura had blocked all escape routes of Shen Tian.

Dragon Crowd was the strongest move of Eight Wildernesses Halberd. It was Qi Shaoxuan’s killing move.

Qi Shaoxuan believed that even he could not survive the attack.

However, Shen Tian did not back off upon seeing the black dragons.

He looked at the dragons calmly, and a strand of his black hair turned silver.

The dragons locked on Shen Tian immediately and swarmed toward him.

Soon, the dragons and purple aura engulfed Shen Tian.

Even the void around Shen Tian was torn apart.

The shards of the void scattered all over the place at incredible speed. It could even destroy a domain set by a Nascent Soul cultivator.

“This... This is insane!”

“This could threaten a Soul Formation Heavenly Venerable! Are you sure he is just a Golden Core cultivator?”

“Compared to him, I might be a fake Golden Core cultivator. Not even ten of me can beat him.”

“I’m Zi Shujing. I told you my Saint is undefeatable. Do you believe now?”

“No wonder he was ranked as a Six-Star Prodigy. Fang Chang’s power is nowhere near his.”

...

Just as everyone thought the battle was over, the dragons shattered and disappeared!

The dragons’ painful cries were deafening.

“Sky-Smashing Palm.”

Short but firm words echoed on the platform.

The voice was not very loud, but it suppressed all the roars of the dragons.

Everyone remembered this move, as well as what happened next.

A silver light appeared among the dragons and started glowing brightly.

It was a palm! A silver palm!

It was very small initially, but it started to grow fast.

All the dragons that touched the palm disappeared immediately.

The black dragons that could hurt Supremacies were a toy for the palm.

“No! There’s no way! It’s not possible! God of War Pagoda! Are you tricking me?”

Qi Shaoxuan panicked.

He made a hand seal and changed the net around the platform into a river and mountains in front of him.

“Purple Aura River Mountain! Form!”

The river mountain that appeared in front of Qi Shaoxuan looked unbreakable.

This art was the Purple Mansion Imperial Sutra’s defense move. It was ranked the same tier as the Purple Eye Beam of Destruction. It was said that no attack could break this defense.

However, when the palm touched it, the river dried, and the mountains crumbled.

Nothing could stop the palm.

It was the power of the ancient Godfiends!

Qi Shaoxuan wanted to run, but he could not lift his legs.

He could look at the giant palm closing on him!

At the same time, on the 7th floor of the God of War Pagoda...

Ye Qingcang looked at the bronze ring carefully.

“This is such a treasure.

“Alright, I’m tired. Just send this kid back. I need to focus on the ring.

“Hmmm. Maybe I should give him some superior-class art!

“If he gets stronger, he will have more fortuitous opportunities. Then, he will spend more money here.

“His providence is strong indeed. He shall be my stable long-term source of profit!

“I’ll just tell him the reason why Tian’er is so strong is because of the Sky-Smashing Palm Art he learned from the pagoda.

“If he too visits the pagoda often and spends more money, he can become just as strong as Tian’er.

“There’s still 20,000 God of War points in his account. There is no way he will stop coming!

“Hehe, I’m so smart!”
