Chapter 361: Sun Tinder, Thearch Tomb Opens
The powerful Sage aura surged forth, engulfing everything.
Even so, Shen Tian did not look the least bit afraid or intimidated. He just looked very calm and confident. He stepped into the Sage Domain, his profile fading and appearing as if he had merged into one with the air.
The Sage aura passed through him, completely unable to affect him in any way. It was like he no longer existed in this dimension but belonged to another world.
Inside the crowd, Wang Shenxu’s eyes widened in disbelief. “This is the mysterious “Body Merging with Void” technique. Never expected Brother Shen to have advanced so far with the Great Void Sutra!”
The Great Void Sutra was ranked number one in Eastern Wilderness. No other sutra could surpass it.
The Great Void Saint possessed the extremely rare Great Void Constitution and was nearly perfectly compatible with the Great Void Sutra. He was a definite top prodigy when it came to understanding the Great Void Sutra.
Even so, Wang Shenxu was shocked speechless after witnessing Shen Tian’s move.
Shen Tian’s move was just perfect and precise!
It should be pointed out that although many of those in the Sage stage could pass through the void freely, they were unable to execute the “Body Merging with Void” technique.
In order to perform that move, one’s body had to become one with the void.
When attacked by an enemy, 99% of the attack would enter the void, leaving the body nearly unharmed.
Meanwhile, not only would one’s own attack not be weakened by the void, but the power of the void would also enhance it.
“Didn’t expect Brother Shen to have already surpassed me in my own domain. I should be ashamed of myself!”
Although a little deflated, Wang Shenxu mostly felt a strong motivation and competitiveness!
The void is my domain. I cannot lose out!
Brother Shen is very talented, and his battle prowess is far beyond my own abilities. But when it comes to void techniques, I cannot let him surpass me by that much!
I must work hard to cultivate the Eternal Life Sutra and replenish my lifeforce to the maximum. Only then can I continue to practice the Great Void Sutra.
So what if I never get the chance to surpass Brother Shen in this life? The number two spot in this world is mine!
...
Wang Shenxu was not alone in this line of thinking.
Qi Shaoxuan, Fang Chang, Zhang Yunting, and the rest all more or less had the same idea.
With Shen Tian around, they could never hope to be on par with him no matter how hard they tried. It would be wishful thinking.
Now, they had a new final goal—to be the number two in this world!
Number two only to Shen Tian!
Today was the best chance they had to analyze Shen Tian’s void control abilities. They were very curious. With the suppression from so many Sages, to what extent would Shen Tian be able to decipher the tablet?
Rumble!
Shen Tian did not disappoint. He had already arrived in front of the tablet.
Over a dozen Sages sat cross-legged in front of the tablet. A thick Sage aura surrounded every single one of them. It was a power that was far beyond that of a cultivator who was below the Sage stage.
Unless Shen Tian’s void manipulation abilities were able to divert most of the aura, even with his Connate Chaotic Golden Body, he would not be able to endure the tremendous pressure.
But it seemed like those powerful Sage auras were just like fleeting clouds to him!
Shen Tian was now sitting in front of the tablet, concentrating on the runes. He radiated a dazzling glow, a divine light shooting out of his eyes. The light was profound and mystical, and it seemed to possess the deepest secrets of the galaxies.
The moment the divine light shot out of his eyes, Qi Shaoxuan, who was standing nearby, felt a piercing pain in the third eye between his brows. He felt a rather heavy pressure.
“Peerless Eye. This eye technique of his is even more powerful than my newly cultivated Purple Mansion Divine Eye!”
The corners of Qi Shaoxuan’s mouth twitched. His Purple Mansion Divine Eye was his most powerful move. Not only could it peer through everything, even down to the depths of hell, but it could even detect his enemies’ weak points. On top of that, it could shoot a powerful beam to kill his enemies.
Even amongst all the imperial sutras, this was considered an extremely powerful technique.
But compared to Shen Tian’s divine eyes, Qi Shaoxuan felt that his own third eye was far inferior.
This was unbelievable!
Shen Tian had no idea his eyes were having such a huge effect on Qi Shaoxuan. He was now completely immersed in the process of enlightenment.
The Connate Constitution had always been a peerless enlightenment constitution. It could help a practitioner understand any technique and sutra. Even in the Celestial World, it was considered one of the best constitutions.
And Shen Tian had awakened the next level of the Connate Constitution, which was the Connate Heavenly Dao Eyes. No technique would be able to escape those eyes.
All techniques were like a naked young lady before him. He would be able to see everything.
All the Sages were startled. They realized that the tablet was shaking intensely, making all the runes vibrate wildly.
Line after line of runes shot out of the Dao Imparting Tablet, surging toward Shen Tian like an all-encompassing fire cloud.
In the blink of an eye, Shen Tian was completely engulfed by the runes. The intensity of the sutra was far beyond that of even the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s.
Everyone’s attention was focused on Shen Tian now. Even those Sages who had been deeply immersed in their cultivation were startled awake.
“How is that possible? He is just a low-level cultivator! How can he decipher so much from the tablet!?”
“I heard that the Divine Firmament Saint is just a Golden Body practitioner. He has not even ascended to the Nascent Soul stage or Nirvana realm. If this is true...”
“Damn, so scary! Is this the true Son of Providence? Compared to him, I feel like I have spent the past several thousand years of my life in vain!”
“Quickly, look! The Divine Firmament Saint has already formed a sun!”
...
Shen Tian sat beside the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, who already had six suns in his avatar.
At this point, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s lightning and heavenly aura had become thicker and more solid. It also had a grand and stately bearing, as if the Sacred Leader was a Divine God who could control lightning and fire.
Six black-gold suns were lined up behind him, looking very mighty and magnificent.
Even so, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was still unable to surpass Shen Tian, whose own avatar was also looking very grand.
Boundless golden lightning surged behind Shen Tian as divine beasts roared. The Divine Lightning avatar was extremely oppressive, engulfing the entire area.
Multi-colored divine light burst across the sky as if cleansing the world of all illusions; tens of thousands of swords pointed toward the sky, all possessing a spine-chilling sword intent; tens of thousands of giant Kuns leaped out of the oceans, transforming into massive golden Pengs...
Every single avatar represented a peerless sutra.
A normal cultivator could become indomitable across all five regions if they could practice any single one of them.
Meanwhile, Shen Tian’s avatars showed that his mastery of all those sutras had all reached the highest levels.
There was no longer any doubt how innately talented he was!
...
At that moment, a black-gold sun appeared in Shen Tian’s avatar.
It grew from a small fire spark into a blazing ball whose dazzling rays lit up the entire lake in just a few breaths’ time!
Even more shocking was that right after the first sun appeared, a second, a third, and a fourth sun immediately followed.
One by one, blazing suns appeared behind Shen Tian. Every single sun was at least 1,000 feet in radius, exuding a fearsome heat and aura. If any evil spirit or demon stood before Shen Tian now, they wouldn’t even need to move a finger. The power of his sun avatar alone would be enough to destroy them.
Fifth, sixth, seventh!
Shen Tian’s sun avatar had reached the maximum level as easily as drinking water.
A new black-gold sun appeared every few minutes. And every time this happened, the corners of the mouths of the surrounding Sages and prodigies twitched.
This is the legendary Dao Imparting Tablet. It holds the Imperial Sutra of Sun.
Can you please give the Imperial Sutra of Sun a modicum of respect? Can you please not make the rest of us look so weak?
You make enlightenment look so easy. It gives the mistaken view that anyone can do it just as easily.
Everyone suddenly felt extremely dejected.
Even the usually-calm Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura was now vibrating intensely as if it would explode any time.
It should be pointed out that the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had spent quite a bit of time before successfully cultivating his first sun avatar. Several days had already passed, and he had only managed to reach the six-sun stage.
However, Shen Tian was able to cultivate seven suns after just a short period.
It was naturally a cause for joy when one’s disciple was so formidable. But being one-upped by one’s disciple was not something any master was willing to endure.
Even when this master was a self-proclaimed “emotionless person”.
A master also had to uphold his own image, alright!
...
Shen Tian was no longer aware of the thoughts of those around him. He felt like he had entered a big, warm fireball, which held boundless heat energy.
This heat energy was extremely scorching and could destroy everything. But it also possessed an endless life source. All living creatures in the universe would not be able to move away from this energy source.
Soaked in this energy, Shen Tian could feel his physical body and soul being cleansed. He absorbed this energy with wanton abandon. His Connate Chaotic Golden Body became even more flawless, his physical body becoming even stronger and firmer.
Meanwhile, his spiritual energy was also enhanced. The Nascent Soul stage barrier in front of him was no longer existent.
If Shen Tian was willing, he could now effortlessly break through to the Nascent Soul stage any time he wanted!
The ninth sun rose behind Shen Tian. Nine mighty suns hung in the air, but it looked like this wasn’t the maximum.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, a 10th sun slowly emerged behind Shen Tian. And it was more than 10 times bigger than the first nine suns.
Rumble!
The Dao Imparting Tablet shook wildly and cracked right down the middle.
A fist-sized ball of black-gold flames shot out of the crack, like a miniature sun shooting straight toward Shen Tian.
Swoosh!
Every inch of the fabric of space that the fireball came in contact with shriveled up and disintegrated into nothing.
The ball of fire shot toward Shen Tian and merged itself into the 10th sun behind him, becoming one with it.
...
In the next instant, the 10 golden suns behind Shen Tian all dazzled with boundless light.
The entire Immortal Abode Island was submerged in the light, and streaks of previously unbreakable restraints melted under the power of the sunlight.
The faces of the Sages changed. They could feel that something major was happening on this island.
The Golden Crow Thearch’s tomb was opening!
