I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 502: I'm Really Not The Son of Providence

Chapter 502: I’m Really Not The Son of Providence

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Shen Tian didn’t expect that he would go back in time and return to 490,000 years ago.

To think that he had been searching for his old friends previously.

Never did he think that the Human Emperor would be himself.

Combined with his recent experiences, Shen Tian came to a realization.

These 108 paragons were the 108 Heavenly Generals of the Heavenly Courts.

It was no wonder that the techniques they grasped were all in the 108 Heavenly Generals’ inheritances.

After all, this was their inheritance.

However, after continuous evolution and improvement, they would become increasingly powerful.

What was even more unbelievable was that the second-generation Human Emperor that the tomb keeper had been talking about was actually himself.

Could it be that it was because he traveled back and forth in time that caused him to change history?

He could not figure this out.

After all, there were many contradictions in this, such as time paradoxes.

...

Nonetheless, Shen Tian gradually accepted this ident.i.ty.

It might not be a bad thing to travel to 490,000 years ago.

Perhaps he could directly change the history of the past and completely save this world.

If there was no past, how could there be a future?

Not only did Shen Tian want to protect this realm, but he also wanted to create a chance for survival in the future.

After all, his family and friends were still waiting for him.

Shen Tian’s eyes were resolute at that thought.

No matter what, he had to save this dangerous era from the calamity.

...

The eyes of all the paragons burned as they focused on Shen Tian.

Their expressions were excited, and their hearts were filled with hope.

This was because the Human Emperor Physique had been a supreme existence since the Antiquity Era.

Back then, it was precisely Emperor Sui who had led all the races under the heavens to face the Evil Spirits from the outer realm.

If not for the First Human Emperor bringing the three Evil Spirit Immortal Emperors down with him, how could the future generations exist?

Now that the Evil Spirit race had invaded again, everyone felt a strong sense of danger.

Everyone knew that if there was no turning point, they would not be able to hold on for much longer. The Evil Spirit race would definitely destroy them.

From the battle in Southern Border, it could be seen that if Shen Tian hadn’t taken action, they would have definitely died here.

Therefore, Shen Tian was not only the inheritor of the Human Emperor Physique but also everyone’s faith.

He was the hope that would lead the five regions back to their peak and resist the Evil Spirits!

...

All the paragons had hopeful eyes as they pleaded. “Second Human Emperor, please lead us to fight the Evil Spirits and save the five regions! We are willing to follow you and fight Evil Spirits together!”

All the paragons spoke in unison with resolute voices.

They were originally the supreme geniuses of the various great powers, lofty, unyielding, and extraordinary.

Given the talents and strength of these paragons, they would definitely become powerhouses in the future and command the wind and clouds.

However, they willingly followed Shen Tian without any hesitation.

The three Sub-Thearchs were moved. They didn’t expect Shen Tian’s aura to be so grand, causing all the geniuses to bow before him.

But with his strength, he could indeed do this.

Shen Tian regained his senses and smiled. “As a member of the five regions, I will naturally do my best to resist the Evil Spirits! We will work together to drive the Evil Spirit race out of this region!”

All the paragons had excited expressions as they roared in unison, “Alright, we’ll obey the Human Emperor’s orders!”

With Shen Tian, who possessed the Human Emperor Physique, leading the way, the five regions had a higher chance of winning.

Perhaps he could use this opportunity to kill his way to the Celestial World before returning to his homeland.

Therefore, everyone was extremely excited.

...

w.a.n.g Xuzi walked forward. “Brother Shen, since you’ve awakened the Human Emperor Physique, you can try to revive the First Human Emperor’s power!

“The First Human Emperor, Sui, established the Human Emperor Palace during the Antiquity Era, commanding all under the heavens.

“That was the most powerful force in the Celestial World. It was also the most powerful force in all of history. All races submitted to the force.

“At the same time, the Human Emperor Palace is also known as the supreme palace of the Antiquity Era. It contains endless mysteries within.”

At this point, w.a.n.g Xuzi’s eyes were filled with yearning. He possessed a Connate Const.i.tution, and he liked to browse through ancient texts, so he knew a bit about the Antiquity Era’s secrets.

w.a.n.g Xuzi once learned from ancient texts that the Human Emperor Palace was not only a supreme palace but also a powerful killing weapon.

Together with the Human Emperor’s Seal, it had a.s.sisted the First Human Emperor to erupt with resplendent light in the dark age during the Antiquity Era.

This was something that countless Evil Spirit experts feared, and it contained an extraordinary might.

Then, w.a.n.g Xuzi sighed softly and said, “Following the pa.s.sing of the First Human Emperor, the Human Emperor Palace also declined and went into complete silence in the five regions.

“However, this was after all the first-generation Human Emperor Palace. It should be extremely extraordinary!

“According to ancient records, the Human Emperor once created the strongest killing formation in the world.

“If Immortal Kings had the control of it, they might even be able to fight against Immortal Emperors. How terrifying would that be?

“If we can revive the Human Emperor Palace, we will definitely be able to better resist the Evil Spirits from the outer realm.

“However, to revive the Human Emperor Palace, not only does one need the Human Emperor Physique, but they also need the Human Emperor’s Seal.

“As for the Human Emperor’s Seal, it has long since disappeared into the end of the Antiquity Era without a trace.”

Shen Tian’s eyes lit up when he heard what w.a.n.g Xuzi said.

He still didn’t know about this secret and had almost missed such a supreme treasure.

However, it didn’t matter.

Shen Tian had been to the Human Emperor Palace before and knew its location.

Furthermore, the Human Emperor’s Seal was in his hands.

It was not difficult to revive the palace.

...

Shen Tian nodded. “Alright, I understand! I’ll leave this place to you guys.”

The Evil Spirit experts had basically been wiped out, and only a few of them remained. There was nothing to fear.

With the strength of the three Sub-Thearchs and the paragons, it was easy for them to settle the situation here.

Shen Tian had no worries and planned to head straight to North Sea to bring back the Human Emperor Palace.

Everyone nodded upon hearing this.

Seeming to have thought of something, Jiang Taiyi hurriedly said, “Brother Shen, what is the name of our faction?”

Now that they were under Shen Tian’s command, it was equivalent to forming a new faction.

This faction was formed by the most elite prodigies of this era, and it was led by a person with the Human Emperor Physique.

It was not an exaggeration to say that this force was going to be the strongest force in the five regions!

Hence, it had to have an awesome name.

Shen Tian pondered slightly, his eyes flickering. “In that case, let’s call it Heavenly Courts!”

His words were like thunder!

Upon hearing Shen Tian’s words, all the paragons shuddered.

They didn’t expect Shen Tian to use this name.

One had to know that the ‘Heavenly Courts’ represented an unknown in everyone’s memories.

It was said that during the Antiquity Era, the First Human Emperor had wanted to establish the Celestial Court.

Later, for some indescribable reason, it was changed to become the Human Emperor Palace.

It was as if there was a curse that was restricting the birth of this power.

Shen Tian also knew this, but he didn’t care. He had never believed in evil and possessed an invincible heart. He was determined to suppress all enemies in the world.

If someone did not want this force to be built, he would insist on it!

Shen Tian wanted to see what secrets were hidden behind this!

...

Jiang Taiyi’s eyes were as bright as the sun as he said, “Alright, let’s call it the Heavenly Courts!”

Even though they knew that there was something ominous going to hit them, they had nothing to fear because their leader was Shen Tian, the second-generation Human Emperor. He had even killed a Thearch before!

With such an expert here, they didn’t fear anything.

Jiang Taiyi said excitedly, “How can such a sensational event not be recorded? This will be an important moment for the Heavenly Courts and the world. We shall become famous throughout history!”

With that, Jiang Taiyi picked up his brush and retrieved an ancient scroll.

“The five regions suffered a calamity, and Evil Spirits from the outer realm invaded.

“The Human Emperor Physique was born during this tough time, slaying 3,000 G.o.ds and devils, ma.s.sacring supreme Evil Spirits.

“108 peerless paragons submitted to the Human Emperor on this day and created the Heavenly Courts together to conquer the heavens!”

“...”

Meanwhile, Shen Tian had already left with Shen Xiao, heading toward North Sea.

Due to the fact that he had been to this place before, he knew its location.

Shen Tian set up a teleportation formation and headed straight for the palace.

In next to no time, the two of them arrived at their destination.

Looking at the majestic palace before them, they were still incomparably shocked.

Due to the appearance of the first-generation Human Emperor’s remnant soul previously, Shen Tian hadn’t paid much attention to the Human Emperor Palace.

But now, after careful inspection, he discovered that this place was indeed filled with extraordinary things.

The Human Emperor Palace was covered in strange Dao patterns.

These were ancient patterns that were pa.s.sed down from an unknown era. They emanated a power that made even Shen Tian’s heart palpitate.

Obviously, this was the strongest killing formation in the world that w.a.n.g Xuzi had mentioned.

Shen Tian could sense that if he activated this killing formation, he might be able to kill Thearch-level existences.

Furthermore, this was only because the Human Emperor Palace had previously suffered serious damage and its source energy had been damaged. If it was in perfect condition, it could unleash an even greater power.

However, Shen Tian’s weak cultivation was also one of the reasons why he would not be able to unleash an even greater power.

If he could repair the formation in the Human Emperor Palace and raise his cultivation level... Perhaps one day, Shen Tian would really be able to recreate the magnificent feat of killing an Immortal Emperor with a formation!

When thinking of this, Shen Tian’s eyes burned.

He immediately took out the Human Emperor’s Seal without hesitation.

...

Dazzling divine light shot out of Shen Tian’s palm, illuminating heaven and earth.

An ancient golden seal shot up into the sky, illuminating the heavens and emitting an awe-inspiring divine might.

Then 10,000 streaks of divine light baptized heaven and earth, completely surrounding this place.

At the same time, Shen Tian utilized the power of his Human Emperor Physique and continuously infused it into the Human Emperor’s Seal, causing the light to become even brighter.

Dazzling golden light enveloped the outer perimeter of the Human Emperor Palace, making it even more magnificent as multicolored light overflowed.

Rumble!

The sound of the vibration shook heaven and earth.

Under the combination of the Human Emperor Physique and the Human Emperor’s Seal, the Human Emperor Palace began to tremble violently.

Various colored lights and auspicious signs rose.

The magnificent palace transformed into a small palace that floated in Shen Tian’s hand.

Even though the palace was small, it contained supreme power, vast and immeasurable.

Shen Tian was holding up the palace as if he was holding up an entire world.

Once he unleashed its power, he would definitely be able to destroy heaven and earth.

Shen Tian’s eyes burned with joy.

He did not expect to obtain such a treasure on this trip.

With the Human Emperor Physique and Human Emperor’s Seal, he could easily control the Human Emperor Palace.

This was a supreme great artifact that wasn’t inferior to the Human Emperor’s Seal, containing endless power.

With such a precious treasure, even if the Evil Spirit Thearchs were to arrive, Shen Tian wouldn’t fear them!

...

Shen Tian then left the place and returned to Middle Ground.

At that moment, the paragons had already arrived.

After settling the chaos in Southern Border, they returned to Middle Ground to get busy. It was because they planned to establish a base of operations. That was the base of the Heavenly Courts!

For the sake of establis.h.i.+ng the Heavenly Courts, the paragons had taken out treasures from their respective powers.

Precious materials such as Crimsonflame Gold, Starstones...

There was also the unmatched Immortal Metal pa.s.sed down from the Antiquity Era.

Each one of these materials was priceless. Even a Sub-Thearch powerhouse would feel pain in their hearts when these were taken out of their treasuries.

But now, these were being taken out as though they were free just to build the strongest base.

This was everyone’s place of faith. It was also an important tool that they needed to suppress the Evil Spirits in the future.

Hence, the paragons were not stingy at all and did not hesitate to use all their trump cards.

This also caused many of them to be chased around by their old ancestors and beaten up on the streets.

Thankfully, the prodigies worked together and finally completed the Heavenly Courts’ construction.

Shen Tian also successfully entered the Heavenly Courts and used the power of domains to set up countless astonis.h.i.+ng formations here.

The Heavenly Court’s current defensive ability was no weaker than any large force’s ancestral land.

In fact, it was even better in some aspects.

After all, Shen Tian and 108 paragons were overseeing this place.

Just this point alone was enough to let Heavenly Courts’ name spread throughout the five regions, its name shaking the world.

...

During that period, no one was idle.

Shen Tian had taken the lead in inviting the 108 paragons to start an expedition.

They searched everywhere in the five regions, searching for fortuitous opportunities and mystic realms.

As expected of the Primordial Era, there were ruins everywhere.

Many of them were mystic realms pa.s.sed down from the Antiquity Era, containing tremendous fortuitous opportunities.

The inheritances of many supreme experts gradually surfaced.

Every paragon was the son of an era. They had a purple halo above their heads, and their fortuitous opportunities were beyond imagination.

According to the fortuitous opportunity image above their heads, Shen Tian led them to continuously search for supreme mystic realms.

During that period, everyone had great gains.

Among the 108 paragons, many of them broke through to the Sub-Immortal level.

The paragons’ admiration for Shen Tian intensified.

Everyone discovered that as long as they followed Shen Tian, they could easily find any mystic realm no matter how deep it was hidden.

Even if there was a world-shocking killing formation, they could still avoid it ahead of time, not suffering any damage.

In fact, even treasures that Sub-Thearchs were unable to obtain were easily obtainable by Shen Tian.

These opportunities seemed to have fallen from the sky and were given to them for nothing.

...

Shen Tian’s providence halo also broke through to become purple in color. He had also obtained a new special ability.

With the support of the purple halo, he could see the unlucky encounters, as well as the life-and-death tribulations the others would face.

Thus, it was easy for him to aid them in avoiding the dangers in the mystic realms.

No one knew of this. They all believed this was Shen Tian’s own fortuitous opportunity, but he had selflessly gifted it to them.

For a time, Shen Tian was praised by everyone as the Son of Providence that was unparalleled in both ancient and modern times. He attracted countless followers.

After all, who wouldn’t want to freeload?

Who wouldn’t want to become rich and walk the path of invincibility?

Now, as long as one followed behind the Second Human Emperor, they would have everything!

At once, the Heavenly Courts’ reputation grew, and countless experts joined the force.

...

During that period, Jiang Taiyi had been recording everyone’s experiences.

And it was compiled into a book—I’m Really Not The Son of Providence!

This was because everyone would thank Shen Tian every time they obtained a fortuitous opportunity.

However, Shen Tian would always be modest and polite, indicating that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Nonetheless, everyone knew that if it wasn’t for Shen Tian, how could they have obtained the treasures and inheritances so easily?

Thus, Shen Tian had long since become the publicly acknowledged Son of Providence.

Jiang Taiyi followed Shen Tian’s words and named the book I’m Really Not The Son of Providence.

This was the most impressive name he could think of.

Shen Tian was clearly the most outstanding Son of Providence in history, yet he had always been modestly refusing the t.i.tle.

Such an act of pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger made him excited every time he thought of it!

...

However!

During that period, the situation in the five regions had also become increasingly grim.

The defeat at Southern Border had caused the Evil Spirit race to go crazy.

They had started to attack the five regions on a large scale, becoming hysterical.

Wormholes opened up in various places and Perfected Immortal experts began to descend in large numbers.

The five regions were not to be outdone and resisted with all their might.

Many sacred grounds and hidden ancient clans’ old monsters came out of seclusion one after another.

The Sub-Thearch powerhouses attacked together to contend against the Perfected Immortal Evil Spirits.

Shen Tian also led the Heavenly Courts and the 108 paragons to battle everywhere.

Everywhere they pa.s.sed, Evil Spirits would tremble with fear.

Wherever the Heavenly Courts’ forces were, the Evil Spirit race’s wormholes would be destroyed.

Countless Evil Spirits perished. Not even Perfected Immortals were able to escape.

Of course, Shen Tian had also experienced a life-and-death crisis.

A great Thearch expert had once attempted to open up this realm, wis.h.i.+ng to forcefully invade this place.

Once, when Shen Tian had been engaged in a fight with several Perfected Immortal Evil Spirits, they hadn’t hesitated to sacrifice their lives to receive an Evil Spirit Thearch.

However, because the Thearch’s true body couldn’t descend, he could only project a portion of his power to kill Shen Tian.

As Shen Tian hadn’t wanted to expose the Human Emperor Palace too early, he had treated the Thearch expert’s attacks as a way to temper himself.

Just like that, he had become even more formidable after countless battles.

Of course, he had died once before.

However, it did not matter!

If one Shen Yuan fell, 10,000,000 Shen Tians would stand up!

Not even Thearchs could do that!

Time flew...

It had been 100 years since Shen Tian had entered this era.

In these 100 years, his cultivation had advanced by leaps and bounds.

By relying on endless fortuitous opportunities and battles, Shen Tian had successfully crossed the 24 Heavenly Tribulations and reached the Sub-Thearch realm.

The quality of his providence halo was also increasing.

From the previous light purple color, it had already reached a deep purple color, and there were strands of chaotic energy within it.

After obtaining a few more great opportunities, he would be able to successfully break through to a new level.

Shen Tian didn’t relax in the slightest. Instead, his heart was incomparably heavy.

He knew the secrets of the Primordial Era.

When the Heavenly Courts rose, the three great Evil Spirit Thearchs would descend with their true bodies.

After killing the three great Thearchs, he would then disappear.

This was a part of history that had already been confirmed by the later generations. It was likely very difficult to change.

Thus, Shen Tian could only try his best to leave a backup plan in case something unexpected happened.

During that period, Shen Tian had used the Sage herbs contributed by the various sacred grounds of the five regions to refine several batches of Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills.

He had distributed all these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills to the 108 paragons and tried his best to increase their strength.

At the same time, he had also imparted the 108 inheritances to them.

As a result, everyone’s strength had soared.

Sheng Yangxu and Xiang Chonglou, in particular, had already broken through to the Sub-Immortal level.

Given their combat strength, they could contend with a Sub-Thearch without being defeated.

...

However, the one who had improved the fastest was still Jiang Taiyi.

After all, they were family, so Shen Tian naturally had to take special care of him.

Not only had he given the Thearch Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill to Jiang Taiyi, but he had even personally imparted the Divine Firmament Lightning Imperial Sutra to Jiang Taiyi, treating him like his own son.

Jiang Taiyi’s strength had increased tremendously, and he had even successfully mastered the Chaotic Divine Lightning, becoming the top powerhouse amongst the 108 paragons!

Thus, Jiang Taiyi’s grat.i.tude toward Shen Tian was like a surging river that flowed endlessly.

...

However, disaster finally arrived.

On this day, the fabrics of s.p.a.ce above Middle Ground were instantly shattered.

A large plot of territory was obliterated into powder. Black chaotic streams surged through the sky, turning the world upside down.

Everyone’s eyes were filled with shock as their gazes focused on the void.

A huge void gate appeared in the surroundings.

The evil aura inside was vast and mighty, filled with supreme Dao patterns as if it wanted to overturn this world.

Boundless chains of order appeared in this expanse of heaven and earth as the Heavenly Dao weaved about, intending to lock down this spatial door.

A giant hand suddenly reached out from the void and tore through s.p.a.ce.

Everyone’s hearts were torn apart.

They felt a terrifying power sweep over, overturning heaven and earth.

This pressure was too powerful. It was like the sky was collapsing, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble.

In front of this power, everyone was as insignificant as ants. They could be destroyed with a flick of its fingers.

...

“What power is this?”

“It’s the power of a Thearch! The true body of a Thearch is about to descend!”

Someone’s voice trembled with fear.

They could sense that the five regions were about to change!
