I Am Really Not The Son of Providence

Panda Novel

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng stared blankly ahead.

That island was too spectacular. It hung high in the sky like an immortal palace, looking majestic and imposing.

The surroundings were full of divine splendor, displaying a miraculous scene.

Endless divine radiance scattered down between heaven and earth, mirages appearing one after another. Auspicious radiance lingered about, releasing great power.

However, this island was very strange. It was clearly right in front of them, but it gave people the feeling that it was so close yet so far away.

It was not so easy to reach the island.

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng’s bodies trembled slightly as they exclaimed, “This place is definitely the Mystic Divine Island!”

They could sense that this place was filled with domain formations, and the power of the Dao inscriptions was extremely powerful here too.

If one did not have a certain level of attainment in formations, they would not be able to approach it at all.

This was also a test left behind by the master of the Mystic Divine Island in order to prevent people who didn’t understand formations from accidentally entering this place.

However, it was not difficult for the two formation clans to crack these formations. They only needed to spend some time.

“We’ve finally found our destination!”

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng were elated and looked at Shen Tian with shock.

They looked at each other and saw through each other’s thoughts.

Hugging someone’s thigh was indeed very comfortable.

…

At this time, everyone successfully entered this peaceful region.

The sea here was vast and calm.

The world was enveloped by a hazy light barrier, preventing the chaotic aura from entering at all.

As soon as they entered the place, everyone immediately felt refreshed. They had been traveling in the Chaotic Star Island domain for more than a month and had been constantly attacked by the chaotic energy, making them constantly on edge.

Now, they could finally relax.

Unexpectedly, the sky suddenly changed.

Endless divine light swirled about as if a brilliant stellar river was descending.

Beams of transparent domain light suddenly rose up and blotted out the sky, blocking everyone’s advance.

Everyone’s expressions became serious.

This place was mysterious, after all. There were great formations everywhere.

Just the materials required for these formations were unimaginable expenses.

The master of the Mystic Divine Island must be extraordinary.

“Everyone, don’t worry. I’ll break the formation here!”

At that moment, Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng walked out.

They had lost face in front of their clansmen, so they had to find a chance to make up for it.

When Zhuge Sima heard this, he also understood the reason behind it. He cupped his hands and said, “Then I’ll have to trouble the two ancestors.”

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng nodded slightly. Then, they stepped forward and began to breach the formation.

Soon, their bodies erupted with divine light as domain power shot out of them.

Strange phenomena appeared in the sky as divine patterns danced in the air.

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng held the ancient compasses in their hands and shot out Dao inscriptions, causing heaven and earth to glow with divine light.

Under the joint efforts of the two ancestors, those special formations were constantly being removed.

…

Shen Tian did not act when he saw this.

Since he had already found the Mystic Divine Island, there was no need for him to waste any more time.

Most importantly, he was surrounded by a large group of young disciples. Their faces were filled with admiration and curiosity.

“Brother Shen, how did you find the right path?”

“Is there some kind of profound formation here?”

Shen Tian was amiable and approachable.

In addition, they were only 100 years apart. This was nothing in the cultivation world.

After spending some time together, Shen Tian was like a big brother next door in the eyes of the disciples of the two great clans. Thus, they quickly formed a group and affectionately called Shen Tian ‘Big Brother’.

Not far away, the mouths of the two old ancestors twitched upon hearing those words.

They referred to each other as fellow Daoists with Shen Tian and could be considered as equals.

Yet, these brats called Shen Tian ‘Big Brother’.

Wouldn’t the hierarchy be messed up?

How rude!

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng felt their balls ache, but seeing that Shen Tian didn’t mind, they were too embarrassed to mention it.

…

Zhuge Sima’s eyes shone with admiration. “Big Brother Shen, I didn’t expect your attainments in the Dao of Formation to be so profound.”

During this period, they had been encountering walls everywhere and were extremely miserable.

In the end, it was Shen Tian who led them to the Mystic Divine Island with ease!

Thus, Zhuge Sima’s admiration for Shen Tian intensified.

Shen Tian shook his head. “I really don’t know much about formations.”

Apart from the Heavenly Cycle Star Formation, Shen Tian had practically never learned any special formations.

He had found the Mystic Divine Island’s location because of the scene in Zhuge Sima’s halo.

Of course, Shen Tian naturally wouldn’t say it out loud.

However, Zhuge Sima didn’t think so. He said in admiration, “Big Brother Shen, you are too humble. To be able to see through the formation here with a single glance, you are definitely a powerful formation expert.

“I wonder if Big Brother Shen can explain some of the essence of formations to us?”

Even their ancestors couldn’t see through the formation, but Shen Tian could see through it with a glance.

This meant that Shen Tian was stronger than his ancestors!

If he could get Shen Tian’s guidance, his formation skills would definitely improve.

Shen Tian didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I just have some understanding of the Heavenly Cycle Star Formation.”

“Heavenly Cycle Star Formation?”

Everyone was filled with curiosity.

They had heard that this supreme formation possessed boundless might.

Back then, Shi Tianzi had relied on the Heavenly Cycle Star Formation to deal with the Evil Spirit race for 100 years.

This was a supreme formation that was able to erupt with incomparably powerful might and increase one’s battle strength by several dozen times.

They never expected that the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader specialized in such a formation.

For a moment, everyone was interested and full of anticipation. “Brother Shen, can you explain the profoundness of this formation?”

Shen Tian smiled and didn’t decline. “Alright! I’ll explain it to you.”

These were all people with extraordinary providence. He had to take good care of them. Hence, he explained the general essence of the Heavenly Cycle Star formation to everyone.

Shen Tian’s expression was solemn as he slowly opened his mouth. His voice was like the profound sound of the Heavenly Dao, greatly opening one’s mind.

For a moment, everyone was immersed in their own thoughts, their faces appearing dazed.

It was as if they were floating in the vast starry river, observing the direction of the changes in the stars.

Dao insights descended upon them while the laws coiled around the stars, making the scene seem profound and unfathomable.

Soon, boundless power erupted from a person’s body, making him become more and more powerful.

Not long afterward, Zhuge Sima was the first to wake up. An emotional expression appeared on his face.

“Brother Shen, how dare you say that you don’t understand the Dao of Formations!? Your attainment in formations is definitely at the peak of the five regions!”

After listening to Shen Tian’s lecture, Zhuge Sima’s comprehension of formations had improved greatly. He even had a breakthrough in his cultivation and successfully advanced to become a Mid-Stage Heavenly Venerable.

Given Zhuge Sima’s current ability, if he was in a suitable terrain for him to set up a domain formation, he had the confidence to contend against ordinary Sages.

What did that mean?

In merely a short moment, Zhuge Sima’s battle power had increased by several times.

Shen Tian smiled faintly and didn’t say anything.

The Heavenly Cycle Star Formation was an Immortal King’s inheritance, so it was naturally profound and unfathomable.

Even though Shen Tian’s explanation was only superficial, it still benefited the disciples present greatly.

…

At that moment, the flying vessel finally stopped.

During this period, Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng had successfully breached a large number of formations.

They approached the Mystic Divine Island and were separated by one last formation.

Dao inscriptions appeared on the formation, and the formation’s light curtain enveloped the world.

This formation was like a big curtain, completely isolating the Mystic Divine Island from the outside world.

Zhuge Yuan said, “This formation is the strongest formation on the Mystic Divine Island. It’s not something that a human can possibly break.

“Fortunately, the ancestor left behind instructions. This formation only needs the Key of Earth to open.”

With that, Zhuge Yuan took the ancient key off the flying boat.

In an instant, divine light overflowed, and the ancient artifact immediately became the size of a jade pendant and was embedded into the formation.

Sima Cheng also took out the Key of Heavens.

The two keys merged into one, forming a complete Key of Heavens and Earth.

Immediately, endless divine light poured down like divine rain, covering everything, illuminating heaven, and earth.

The formation that was originally emitting an immense pressure suddenly split open, revealing a door of light that led to the island.

Everyone became incomparably excited as they could finally enter the Mystic Divine Island and search for the supreme inheritance!

“Let’s go in!”

Zhuge Yuan and Sima Cheng walked at the front with anticipation.

The others also followed closely behind, entering the Mystic Divine Island together.

…

Upon entering this place, everyone immediately felt refreshed.

The surroundings were filled with the sounds of birds chirping and the fragrance of flowers. The mountain rocks stood tall and straight, creating a tranquil scene.

Trees grew, towering into the clouds.

The towering mountain ranges formed a line that encircled the entire island, appearing grand and majestic.

Who would have thought that there would be such an area in the depths of the Chaotic Star Sea?

This place was full of Spirit Qi. The Spirit Qi here was dense enough to the point it condensed into a mist.

The flowers, plants, and trees were all glowing and emitting a faint fragrance. It also gave people a soul-numbing feeling.

As far as the eye could see, there were rare herbs everywhere.

Everyone started exclaiming upon seeing that scene.

“Wow, I didn’t expect the Spirit Qi here to be so abundant.”

“There are spirit herbs everywhere. Isn’t this too extravagant!”

One must know that these were all weeds and wildflowers by the roadside.

But under the nurturing of the dense Spirit Qi, all of them had become existences at the level of spirit herbs.

From this, one could tell that this place was extraordinary.

On the other hand, Shen Tian was very calm because the highest level of spirit herbs on the side of the road was only high-grade and didn’t attract him.

One had to know that Shen Tian had harvested a large batch of spirit herbs at the Sacred Battle Thearch’s tomb.

Just the spirit herbs in his space ring had piled up into small mountains. It could be said that there was a sea of them.

These spirit herbs naturally wouldn’t interest Shen Tian.

But even if Shen Tian didn’t care, it didn’t mean the disciples of the two great clans didn’t care.

They lived in seclusion all year round and rarely explored the mystic realms of the outside world.

Even high-grade spirit herbs were extremely precious to these young disciples.

In an instant, many young disciples scattered in all directions to collect the spirit herbs by the roadside.

Zhuge Sima was not in a hurry to pick the spirit herbs. Instead, he looked around. He discovered that this place was filled with mysteries. Every mountain peak seemed ordinary, but the position they were sitting on seemed to have some sort of special meaning.

The surrounding mountains were arranged in a circle, like countless guards protecting an emperor.

These mountain ranges gathered the momentum of heaven and earth, constructing a supreme great domain formation. Only then could the Mystic Divine Island float in the air.

Zhuge Sima’s eyes narrowed upon realizing that.

This place did not look like a mystic realm. It looked more like a Bodhimanda.

To be able to construct a Bodhimanda of such a large scale, the owner was definitely not a simple person.

…

Zhuge Sima shifted his gaze and looked ahead. He saw a Sima disciple heading toward the depths of the Mystic Divine Island.

That person was Sima Gang. He was constantly searching for spirit herbs and collecting them.

In front of him was a valley.

At the entrance, there was a towering ancient tree with delicate and tender vermilion fruits growing on it.

The fragrance of the vermilion fruits’ alluring fragrance wafted through the air.

Seeing this scene, Sima Gang was overjoyed. “This is a Sage herb, the Vermilion Fruit!”

For Nascent Soul and Heavenly Venerable cultivators like them, the value of Sage herbs was immeasurable.

Sima Gang couldn’t suppress the excitement in his heart. He stepped forward, wanting to pick the sage herb.

A faint light flickered in front of the valley as if ripples were spreading, stirring up some waves.

Zhuge Sima’s expression changed slightly as he shouted, “Sima Gang, be careful!”

However, just as Sima Gang was about to step forward, a vine swept over from behind, directly wrapping around Sima Gang, pulling him back.

“Ah! That is my Sage herb!”

Sima Gang thought that someone was trying to snatch his Sage herb and immediately shouted.

But soon after, his gaze shifted as he saw Shen Tian attacking.

“Brother Shen, why did you stop me?”

Sima Gang was puzzled. Why would an expert of Shen Tian’s level care about a Sage herb?

Shen Tian smiled faintly. “Don’t be so rash. Sometimes, what you see may not be the truth.”

With that, he casually picked up a rock and threw it into the valley.

Boom!

In an instant, the laws fell into disorder, and the void shattered!

The stone was instantly reduced to dust, and even the surrounding void was torn into nothingness.

Sima Gang’s heart trembled with fear when he saw that.

No wonder Shen Tian had stopped him. So there was such a terrifying trap here.

“Thank you, Brother Shen, for saving me!”

Sima Gang quickly thanked him, feeling extremely grateful.

If it wasn’t for Shen Tian, he would have been dead if he had taken a few more steps forward.

Zhuge Sima also rushed over and said with a serious expression, “I didn’t expect there to be an Illusionary Killing Formation here.”

The so-called Illusionary Killing Formation was a trap that used illusions to lure people into killing formations. It contained tremendous power.

Judging from the formation’s power, even a Sage would be buried here if they fell into the trap.

However, Zhuge Sima became curious.

As a disciple of a formation clan, he was filled with interest in the wonders of the world.

If Zhuge Sima could crack this Illusory Killing Formation, his attainments in formations would definitely improve.

When he thought up to here, he didn’t hesitate in the slightest and said, “I’ll go up and give it a try!”

With that said, he leaped up and walked toward the valley.

Zhuge Sima held the Eight Trigrams Compass in his hand and carried the Five Elements Compass on his back. Dazzling divine light erupted from his body.

The gigantic compass covered the entire sky and emitted a vast and immeasurable power.

He towered in the void like a Formation Dao Deity, able to set up an unmatched formation with a wave of his hand.

Taking a deep breath, Zhuge Sima stepped into the valley.

In an instant, countless divine inscriptions soared into the sky.

The Heavenly Dao runes formed nomological sharp blades that charged toward Zhuge Sima.

Zhuge Sima’s expression did not change. The compass in his hand shone brightly, and a huge Eight Trigrams Divine Seal appeared.

The Eight Trigrams Divine Seal then swept across with a destructive force.

Boom!

The sound resonated, shaking heaven and earth.

Countless sharp blades were swept away by the Eight Trigrams Divine Seal.

The surrounding disciples from the two great formation clans were shocked.

“Big Brother Zhuge’s strength has improved again!”

“As expected of the prodigy of our clan. He’s indeed powerful.”

“With Big Brother Zhuge’s bearing, he will definitely become an unparalleled formation expert in the future!”

Zhuge Sima had always been the pride of the two clans. The stronger he was, the happier the disciples of the two clans would be.

Shen Tian was also slightly surprised.

Zhuge Sima’s talent was no weaker than Shi Tianzi’s.

As expected of a Son of Providence with a dark-purple halo above his head, he was indeed extraordinary.

However, Shen Tian didn’t mind. They were all part of his flock, so the stronger they were, the better it was for him!

…

Zhuge Sima stepped forward again. He wanted to break through this killing formation in one go!

However, in the depths of the formation, a terrifying killing intent suddenly burst out.

The killing intent was endless, and its might was extremely sharp and terrifying.

A crimson divine light pierced through the void, shattering endless laws and exploding forth.

Zhuge Sima’s expression changed slightly as the light behind him shone brightly.

The Five Element Compass radiated divine light, shooting out endless Dao inscriptions that condensed into a giant ape.

The giant ape looked up at the sky and let out a long howl, erupting with boundless might.

It brandished its huge fists and charged forward, resisting the crimson divine light.

The void shattered, leaving heaven and earth-shaking.

A massive fist descended with the power to shatter mountains and rivers.

However, in the face of that crimson divine light, it appeared extremely powerless.

Boom!

In an instant, the fist light was shattered and dissipated.

The crimson divine light was incomparably sharp as it pierced through the void.

Puchi!

The giant ape was cut in half at the waist, causing blood to flow out.

Zhuge Sima’s body trembled violently as he retreated explosively.

Fortunately, the giant ape blocked the attack and allowed him to retreat safely.

Nonetheless, this scene shocked everyone.

This Illusionary Killing Formation was actually so terrifying that even Zhuge Sima was unable to break it?

Zhuge Sima also had a fearful expression as he said, “This place is extremely extraordinary and cannot be entered easily.”

He felt that there seemed to be something hidden in the Illusionary Killing Formation that released a terrifying killing intent.

Shen Tian explained with a smile, “This isn’t some Illusionary Killing Formation. It’s just a killing formation.”

“Just a killing formation?”

Zhuge Sima had a puzzled expression.

How could an ordinary killing formation release such terrifying power?

Shen Tian didn’t say anything and walked forward. He stretched out his hand, and a jade green vine immediately swept out.

The vine was crystal clear and was as thick as a horned dragon. It carried an irresistible might as it flew into the sky.

In an instant, countless divine lights erupted.

The killing formation released overflowing divine radiance, terrifying to the extreme, as if it was going to destroy heaven and earth.

However, at this moment, the void shattered, and a dense light hole appeared.

The Divine Binding Vine instantly retracted, and a crimson Nine-leaf Lotus Flower appeared.

As the Nine-leaf Lotus Flower appeared, the killing formation immediately disintegrated.

Everyone was dumbstruck.

No way!

…

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had managed to crack such a powerful killing formation?

Who exactly was the disciple of a formation clan?

Why was the difference between them so huge!?
