Chapter 369: Fastest Man In The Five Regions!
Chapter 369: Fastest Man In The Five Regions!
The Ocean Divine Hammer was just half a step away from becoming a true Immortal artifact, and its basic crafting material was the Dragon Black Metal, ranked fifth on the Immortal Metal List. Thus, it had the special attribute of “defense penetration”.
The Ocean Divine Hammer was definitely one of the best, even amongst other pseudo-Immortal artifacts.
Its value was even higher than the Executing Heaven Sword!
Naturally, the various sacred grounds’ prodigies present would recognize its value.
Although they might not have a pseudo-Immortal artifact, they could at least recognize one when they saw it!
After Shen Tian took out the Ocean Divine Hammer, all the prodigies in the surrounding gulped down a mouthful of saliva. Τhey could not help but feel envious, and Qi Shaoxuan was also included.
Although Qi Shaoxuan was also called the Son of Providence, his equipment consisted only of high-quality Divine artifacts.
Even the whole Purple Mansion Sacred Ground had only a few supreme treasures on the level of pseudo-Immortal artifacts, so they couldn’t distribute them to Qi Shaoxuan, who was only in Nascent Soul Stage, especially since the Purple Mansion Sacred Leader was that stingy.
He looked at Shen Tian and murmured, “As expected of Brother Shen. You have a pseudo-Immortal artifact on you, actually!”
Qi Shaoxuan could not help but feel frustrated at this discovery.
Of course, Shen Tian did not know what Qi Shaoxuan was thinking right now, or else he would definitely comfort Qi Shaoxuan.
For example, he would say, “Actually, I have more than one pseudo-Immortal artifact. I have at least three if the Executing Heaven Sword and Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk are included!
“Also, the Six Paths of Reincarnation Disk’s crafting material is the Pure Reincarnation Earth ranked third on the Mystic Earth List. Its value is even higher than the Ocean Divine Hammer, and normal Immortal artifacts can’t even begin to compare with it!”
Shen Tian believed that if Qi Shaoxuan learned that, he would not be amazed by just the Ocean Divine Hammer anymore.
Of course, one would still need to keep a low profile, so just taking out one pseudo-Immortal artifact was enough to handle the situation.
Exposing too many would result in others’ envy.
It is not wise to reveal one’s true wealth~
Shen Tian looked at that ray of white light in the air calmly.
Silver light could be seen flashing in his eyes, while stars seemed to be glittering in his eyes. It made him look mysterious.
He seemed to be analyzing something.
...
Bai Di’s voice could be heard in the air. “Haha, kid, you’re not bad! You actually have a pseudo-Immortal artifact on you. It’s a pity that no matter how good the equipment is, it all depends on its master.
“If you’re willing to give the hammer to me, then I could consider teaching you the most revered legacy technique!”
His arrogant voice reverberated throughout the passageway, sounding exceptionally smug and aggravating.
Everyone was filled with righteous rage.
Shen Tian did not get mad. Instead, a smile could be seen on his face.
Golden lightning coursed throughout his body and quickly spread to the Ocean Divine Hammer.
In that instant, he looked just like a lightning god that had descended.
Shen Tian looked at that white light with interest. “I heard that every member of the Tortoise race has an unparalleled, impregnable defense. I’m curious if this Dragon Black Metal that specifically penetrates defense will be able to break through senior’s defense. Would Senior Bai Di like to try?”
That voice hesitated for a moment, but he seemed to be very confident with his speed.
He scoffed. “It’s just Dragon Black Metal. It’s not worthy and won’t be able to penetrate my armor!”
Shen Tian nodded. “Then if that’s so, I’ll feel free to strike.”
Just as he finished, Shen Tian instantly disappeared from his original spot, only leaving behind a golden afterimage. His speed was so fast others could not see him clearly.
To even the surrounding prodigies, that golden figure was even faster than that ray of white light though it might just be their imagination.
Rumble!
Bang!
Smack!
...
The sounds of energy blasts colliding echoed in the air, followed by the sounds of two bodies grinding against each other.
The whole passageway was filled with bright lightning. White and golden lightning were intertwined, making it impossible to see who was who.
Even Qi Shaoxuan’s Purple Mansion Heavenly Eye could not see what was happening clearly.
However, he did see something, so he revealed a smile.
Suddenly, blinding lightning filled the passageway!
The radiant divine lightning instantly turned into a peerless hammer avatar, which was then attached to the Ocean Divine Hammer.
At that moment, a resplendent golden dragon enveloped the hammer, which seemed to enhance the hammer to an unprecedented level of power.
“Heavenly Wilderness 36 Hammers—Blazing Sun Hammer!”
Shen Tian roared, and instantly ten blazing suns rose behind him.
At that moment, the dim array formation patterns within the passageway suddenly lit up.
Endless power of fire entered Shen Tian’s body through those patterns and surged into the Ocean Divine Hammer.
The Ocean Divine Hammer seemed to have truly turned into a vast and mighty sun that had fallen from the sky, smashing toward a certain place in the air.
“F*ck! Why is the space locked!?
“It’s the Kun Pengs’ space-locking art! You actually cultivated it successfully!?
“Are you a monster? You know the Divine Firmament Imperial Sutra, Kun Peng arts, Imperial Sutra of Sun, and this absurd hammer art!
“Don’t think that you’ll penetrate my defense just because you can resonate with the array formation patterns! You should know that speed is just one of my ultimate abilities, I am the—”
Boom!
Before he could finish, a bright ball of light suddenly appeared from nowhere.
Immediately after, a miniature mushroom cloud was formed from an explosion.
The whole passageway shook lightly while smoke and dust flew up all around.
...
After the smoke and dust settled, Shen Tian slowly put away his Ocean Divine Hammer.
He had used the Five Elements Mixed Dharmic power, so there was not one speck of dust on him—even his armor was still shining.
It seemed as if the battle was just a casual fight without any pressure. Princess Linglong and the others were charmed by such a version of Shen Tian!
Meanwhile, on the other side, a huge hole had appeared on the ground, and a large tortoise was buried within it.
That tortoise was originally white from head to toe, and even its shell was crystal clear like white jade.
At present, however, its whole body was charred by the lighting flames and looked just like it had just come out of an oven with a huge bump on its head.
Not only one bump—there were actually more than ten bumps on its head. The largest one was almost large enough to be a head.
At that moment, Bai Di’s image of having his chin and nose high up in the air when he had first appeared completely disappeared.
He was dumbstruck as he looked at Shen Tian, doubting himself.
Bai Di had been observing Shen Tian from afar in the Primordial Battlefield and knew that he could not be underestimated. After all, Shen Tian had talent that could be compared to the Gold Light Sub-Thearch, or he could be even more talented.
Thus, although he was tempted to, he did not rashly make a move to directly keep Shen Tian as his pet. Instead, he was patient and focused on restoring his cultivation level first.
However, Bai Di never expected Shen Tian would be that talented—his cultivation speed surpassed the rate Bai Di was recovering his cultivation level.
One had to know that the cultivation level of Bai Di far exceeded the Mighty Prowess realm in his previous life, so there was no bottleneck when cultivating again.
Also, although he had just become a Mighty Prowess practitioner, he was almost invincible against opponents below the Tribulation Transcendence/ Life Death Calamity stage/realm with his knowledge and cultivation techniques of his previous life.
Thus, if it was in terms of speed only, then even those weaker Sages would only pale in comparison as compared to him and would never be able to chase up to him.
Therefore, Bai Di had been under the impression that he could definitely dominate everyone in this tomb with his current cultivation level and speed.
Even if he encountered those so-called Sacred Leaders, he was not afraid at all since their cultivation was being suppressed.
Since he did have amazing talent, with his cultivation level in his previous life as proof, he made light of everyone in the tomb.
...
However, he was chased by Shen Tian today, and it was a one-sided battle.
He was hammered again and again until his whole head was swollen, which might even result in inflammation.
He’s too ruthless! He’s simply a monster!
Not only is his attack power strong enough to penetrate my Tortoise race’s defense, but his speed is also unreasonably fast.
If the Golden Light Sub-Thearch was in the same generation as this kid, then the title of “the fastest man in Eastern Wilderness” would most likely not belong to the Golden Light Sub-Thearch.
Bai Di even felt that after Shen Tian successfully transcended his first tribulation and became a Sage, he might even give the title of the “fastest man in the five regions” to Shen Tian.
Monster! He’s really too monstrous!
If only I knew that this kid could chase up to me, then I wouldn’t have shown off just now.
Tss, my head hurts so much!
