I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 358: Pitiful Strongest Prodigy

Chapter 358: Pitiful Strongest Prodigy

Currently, all the Sages’ attention was on Shen Tian.

They could sense that Shen Tian’s cultivation level was not simple, and they also wanted to see how extraordinary his providence was.

However, Shen Tian was in the end just a Golden Body kid and not even a Nascent Soul cultivator yet.

Shen Tian would decipher the tablet with them?

Not considering whether he had the qualification and status, just the Sages’ released pressure during enlightenment was most probably not something he could endure!

Does he really dare?

Under the Sages’ stares, Shen Tian revealed a faint smile. “How could I overstep my authority and decipher the tablet with Master and the other Sage seniors.”

Upon saying that, Shen Tian took half a step back and squatted beside the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. He took out the supreme-grade Spirit artifact teapot.

He smiled and said, “Master, please have peace of mind as I brew tea for you.”

After finis.h.i.+ng, Shen Tian took an Enlightenment tea leaf that was shaped like a Golden Crow out of his ring and put it into the teapot.

After the spirit spring water was poured into the teapot, Shen Tian used Nan Ming Li Fire to brew it, and the mysterious sound of the Dao instantly echoed from the teapot. At the same time, the fragrant scent of the enlightenment tea also started spreading.

A Golden Crow avatar floated in the air and even outlined the characters on the Dao Imparting Tablet more clearly.

At that instant, all the Sages were dumbfounded.

“This-this is the fragrance of enlightenment tea!”

“Not only is it enlightenment tea, but the Enlightenment tea leaf’s color is silver. It was plucked from a Tree of Enlightenment that is at least 1,000,000 years old!”

“Isn’t that a supreme extraordinary treasure that only exists in legends? Is there really such an old Tree of Enlightenment in the five regions?”

“I heard that there’s a Tree of Enlightenment in Middle Ground’s Jixia Academy. Huang s.h.i.+ planted it himself. It’s only 10,000 years old but is already Middle Ground’s most precious spirit plant.”

“The price of this Enlightenment tea leaf is 100 times more precious than the leaves of that Tree of Enlightenment in Middle Ground!”

“Just how wealthy is that kid to be able to anyhow take out such a supreme treasure to brew tea for his Master!”

“I’m burning with jealousy. I’ll teach my good-for-nothing a lesson when I return!”

...

The more tribulations a Sage transcended, the more honed and polished their Dao Hearts would be.

Normally, Sages would be able to keep a poker face no matter what happened unless they really could not bear it.

However, Shen Tian had only brewed a pot of tea, and those Sages with n.o.ble characters and high prestige were already doubting themselves from the shock.

Meanwhile, what followed after astonishment was deep envy and longing.

It was too extraordinary!

If a normal tea leaf could be said to be precious as it would be quite beneficial to cultivators below the Sage stage but useless to Sages and above, then this silver Enlightenment tea leaf was greatly beneficial to even cultivators above the Sage stage.

What was more valuable was that the shape of the Enlightenment tea leaf that Shen Tian had taken out was obviously that of a Golden Crow, which could not be more compatible with the Imperial Sutra of Sun on the Dao Imparting Tablet.

If one could drink such a cup of enlightenment tea before deciphering the Dao Imparting Tablet, then the effects would definitely increase tenfold or even more!

Why? Just why do I not have such a disciple?

So frustrating!

The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura swayed gently.

“Tian’er, don’t be rude. All the Sages present are all your seniors. They all deserve a cup of your tea. Since this enlightenment tea is compatible with the cultivation technique on the Dao Imparting Tablet, then it’s fated with everyone present. Thus, everyone should have a cup.

“Brew it properly as you’ll need to serve your seniors later. The seniors present are all respectable Sages and will not take advantage of you.

“If they do learn something from the tablet, they can teach you some cultivation techniques or give you a few Sage artifacts as a present. It’ll be enough of a benefit for you.

“Don’t be stingy about a mere Enlightenment tea leaf. Brew a few more cups of tea. Even if there’s limited tea and not everyone will be able to drink it, your seniors won’t be angry at you.

“Tian’er, serve the tea!”

The Sacred Leader’s voice may be cold, but it only served to increase the hints of antic.i.p.ation in those Sages’ eyes.

Shortly after, a Sage smiled warmly before standing up and taking out a mirror with a shred of reluctance in his eyes.

That Sage gave the mirror to Shen Tian. “I’ve heard how handsome and talented the Divine Firmament Saint is and that you’re the Son of Providence blessed by the Heavenly Dao. You truly live up to your name.

“This is a Sage artifact, the Dark Light Mirror. It contains the Grand Unity Sky Purple Light and can be used for offense and defense. I’ll give it to the Saint as a present for our first meeting!”

A Sage artifact as a present?

All the disciples in the vicinity took in a sharp breath upon hearing that Sage’s words.

One had to know that it was a Sage artifact. Not even Soul Formation cultivators possessed a Sage artifact, and its value was enough to make numerous Heavenly Venerables feel envious.

The estimated price of the silver-colored Enlightenment tea leaf was comparable to that of a Sage artifact, but this Sage was actually willing to give the mirror to Shen Tian for a cup of tea without hesitation. It was simply jaw-dropping.

Even Shen Tian was astonished.

Isn’t the Sage artifact worth a tea leaf? Why has this senior directly given me one just to drink a cup of tea?

Just because this leaf is compatible with the Dao Imparting Tablet? That’s too extravagant!

“You flatter me, senior. This Sage artifact is extremely precious, so I dare not accept.”

“You’re too humble. Even if you don’t use this Dark Light Mirror for offense, you could always use it to appreciate your handsome looks.”

“Senior, there’s really no need to give me that!”

“Saint, just accept it!”

“Senior, please stop!”

“Saint, are you looking down on my mirror or me?”

“Eh? Sigh... Since Senior insists, I’ll accept it. I deeply appreciate your gift. Please drink this cup of tea.”

Shen Tian hurriedly poured a cup of enlightenment tea and respectfully pa.s.sed it to the Sage in front of him.

The other Sages were all astounded as they watched this scene!

Bast*rd! He actually directly gave a Sage artifact! He’s just driving up the tea’s price!

Since he gave the Sage artifact, it’ll be too humiliating if I don’t give a Sage artifact too!

Losing face is a small matter. The problem is that a piece of Enlightenment tea leaf could only brew so much tea. What if we can’t get a share of the tea if we don’t give a Sage artifact?

That d.a.m.ned Purple Mansion Sacred Leader! Hasn’t the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground always been on bad terms with the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground? Why is he so cooperative with the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader!?

It must be a scheme, a blatant scheme!

...

All the Sages were currently crazily cursing the Purple Mansion Sacred Leader in their hearts. Even Qi Shaoxuan, who was beside the Purple Mansion Sacred Leader, doubted himself.

Since when was Master this wealthy? Doesn’t he tell me all the time that he’s poor?

He said that our sacred ground had no treasures, so I should go out to explore more often.

Master said that he is my backing, while those treasures that I obtain with my own strength belong to me!

Originally, I firmly believed in him and had always thought of that as my motto to motivate myself, chanting it twice a day. Do you know how hard I worked to search for treasures to strengthen the Purple Mansion Sacred Ground all these years?

What’s up with this situation now!?

I, Qi Shaoxuan, don’t even have a Sage artifact even though I’m your disciple.

But now you casually give a Sage artifact as a present to Brother Shen? What is the meaning of this!?

I’m the strongest prodigy, yet I’m too pitiful!
