Chapter 336: The Seawater Is Salty Today!
Shen Tian did not try to hide his cultivation level. Kun Yu and Kun Xu could feel that he was a genuine Golden Body practitioner.
However, his aura was not something a Golden Body practitioner should exude!
Which Golden Body practitioner could have such a potent aura?
A Kun avatar also appeared behind Shen Tian. It was so huge that it was blocking most of the sunlight!
This kind of power was definitely something only Heavenly Venerables possessed. Some normal Heavenly Venerable could not even exude that!
Kun Xu thought to himself, Is there any chance that this Divine Firmament Saint has reached the Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage?
The Godfiend cultivation path was way harder than the Qi Refinement cultivation path.
Plenty of geniuses could reach the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage. In rare cases, some people could even reach the tenth stage, like Qi Shaoxuan.
However, when it came to the Godfiend cultivation path, it was rare to even see a Golden Body Seventh Refinement Stage practitioner—nobody had ever heard of the ninth stage.
For the past 10,000 years, no one had ever reached that stage before.
Even the Immortal Phoenix Queen and Huang Shi were merely pseudo-Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage practitioners.
Whether it was true, only they knew the answers.
However, Middle Ground had a few Golden Body Eighth Refinement Stage practitioners. They were considered to be peak Golden Body practitioners, and they could kill a Supremacy easily.
Even a Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage cultivator could not beat a Golden Body Eighth Refinement Stage practitioner. The former would lose in a very short time.
Thus, the power of a Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage practitioner would be insane. They could most likely beat a Golden Core Tenth Refinement Stage cultivator with ease too!
However, even if one was at the Golden Core Ninth Refinement Stage, there was no way they could beat a Heavenly Venerable!
There was a gap of two entire levels!
Furthermore, Shen Tian’s aura would not be considered weak even if it was compared to Heavenly Venerables.
According to Kun Xu, a normal Soul Formation cultivator might not even exude such a strong aura.
This power certainly does not belong to a Golden Body Ninth Refinement Stage...
Tenth? Or... Eleventh!?
Ssss, that’s a terrifying thought!
No wonder the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader likes this kid so much.
When this kid reaches his peak, the five regions will be at his beck and call!
Kun Xu was extremely jealous of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader right now.
Why did our Kun race not give birth to such a strong monster?
...
As for Kun Yu, she did not have such complicated thoughts.
She looked at Shen Tian, dazed by how strong he was.
He is just a Golden Body practitioner, yet he possesses the power of a Heavenly Venerable. He is so talented! I’ve never heard of anything like this before.
Those prodigies back in North Sea are really nothing compared to him. He’s more handsome, talented, and powerful!
No wonder the Mermaid Princess likes Shen Tian. It’s really not her fault!
This Saint is really too good to be true! It’s okay to lose to him, brother!
My brother, any sane female would choose him over you...
That’s not good!
I cannot let the Saint go near the Mermaid Princess anymore! My brother would really have no chance at all!
An idea popped into Kun Yu’s mind—she planned to play matchmaker for Kun Ming with Yu Pianxian.
I will snatch Shen Tian first and leave Yu Pianxian with no choice!
As long as Shen Tian has a Dao companion, Yu Pianxian will be unable to do anything. Thus, she’ll have to choose my brother!
That’s right!
I’ll sacrifice myself for my brother’s happiness!
This is all because of a sister’s selfless love for her little brother.
It’s definitely not because I like him!
Kun Yu smiled and said, “Saint, you are really Eastern Wilderness’ strongest prodigy. Your talent impresses me. I’ll do away with the formalities, and there will be no holding back. Watch out!”
Kun Yu dashed at Shen Tian like a blue laser beam. She was wearing a light blue armor carved with divine emblems, and it could merge with the void and control the space around her.
When Kun Yu was near Shen Tian, he felt immense pressure on him coming from the void.
This was the Void Realm. His speed would be restricted greatly when fighting with the Kun race.
“Watch it, Saint!”
Great North Fist!
Kun Yu was already in front of Shen Tian, and her fist was only a few inches away from his face.
Although her hand looked small, the power of the punch should not be taken lightly. The void around her arm began to crack under her power.
Furthermore, Kun Yu’s fist had a strong suction force and prevented Shen Tian from dodging.
Coupled with her armor’s emblems, she had great control over the battle.
Although Kun Yu had just reached the Mighty Prowess stage, her power was no weaker than a normal Heavenly Venerable.
If Kun Yu could match evenly with Kun Ming before the Mighty Prowess stage, she could fight a few dozen Kun Ming together with her current power.
...
She is strong indeed!
Shen Tian exclaimed in his heart. Kun Yu had impressed him.
If a normal Heavenly Venerable’s combat power was 6,000 points, Kun Yu at least had 10,000 right now.
This woman is terrifying!
Shen Tian took a deep breath, and a pair of golden wings appeared on his back. The First Essence Heavy Water covered his fists too.
He looked even more handsome with the golden and silver light.
Rumble!
A loud thunder-like sound echoed under the deep ocean.
The impact from the exchange of blows caused a huge tsunami.
The void in between the two of them turned into ashes immediately and was washed away by the black current.
Shen Tian was thrown back a few hundred feet, and he could feel his hand shaking.
He felt like he had punched a giant mountain!
This Eldest Princess is really powerful. I better do not let my guard down.
Shen Tian exclaimed in his mind. Kun Yu was much more powerful than he thought.
Of course, Kun Yu was even more shocked than Shen Tian.
She had just wanted to test Shen Tian. She had used 60% of her power and had been prepared to pull back her fist.
Kun Yu had been worried that she might hurt Shen Tian.
However, she had not expected Shen Tian’s First-Essence-Heavy-Water-covered fists
to be so strong. That was just incredible.
The impact had caused Kun Yu to move back a few thousand feet, and her fist was now swollen.
Kun Yu was the one at a disadvantage now. Nevertheless, she was not embarrassed at all.
On the contrary, she was more excited now.
That’s good! Only powerful people like him deserve my love!
C’mon, Saint!
...
“You are strong. Let’s do it again!”
This was a world where strength reigned supreme.
Although she was not as talented as Shen Tian, her eyes were filled with excitement.
As a proud Kun Heavenly Venerable, Kun Yu could not allow herself to lose to Shen Tian!
Argh!
A huge Kun avatar appeared behind Kun Yu. The sea waves turned into dozens of weapons and flew toward Shen Tian.
Kun Yu was hiding among the weapons too, ready to launch another attack.
It was one of the Great Void Kun race’s strongest moves, the Great North Fist!
Shen Tian’s eyes lit up, and he smiled.
“Nice punch!”
Since the goal was to showcase the Kun Peng Dao, Shen Tian would not use other arts he knew.
He took a deep breath, and a huge Kun avatar appeared behind him too. His avatar was more vivid than Kun Yu’s.
The avatar behind Shen Tian was not just a normal Kun. It was changing as it flew between the sea and the sky.
When it was in the sky, its body turned into a golden eagle. It represented the mighty Yang and was filled with strength.
However, when the golden eagle returned to the sea, the huge Kun appeared again. It represented the Yin and was filled with restriction power.
It was an ancient offensive skill the Kun race had also created. Not only that, but it also incorporated the Heavenly Eagle race’s techniques. He had used the Kun Peng Dao against Kun Yu.
Initially, Kun Yu had the advantage with her full strength.
However, Shen Tian’s knowledge of the Kun Peng race’s ancient offensive skills was increasing drastically.
At first, Shen Tian was not used to this new art.
The second time, Shen Tian became familiar with it and figured out ways to better use it.
The third time, Shen Tian almost mastered it.
Even Kun Xu could learn something from Shen Tian’s use of the arts.
Kun Xu was a Sage. He had been learning the Kun ancient offensive skills since young and had greater mastery over these.
Yet, he could still learn something new from Shen Tian. This showed that Shen Tian was really good at it.
Furthermore, Kun Xu could tell that Shen Tian was really not familiar with the Kun Peng art.
He does not seem to have used the Kun Peng art before. He’s really a newbie.
However, he mastered it in just a short while?
His talent is beyond imagination!
If he is an enemy, he has to be killed on the spot right now.
If he is not, we have to build a good relationship with him.
If possible, we have to gain his favor too!
The Kun King observed as his daughter was fighting with Shen Tian.
The higher he stood, the more he could see.
He knew that the emergence of many talented cultivators in the five regions might not be a good thing. It might be the sign of a chaotic time.
As such, even the strong Great Void Kun race could face extinction because of it.
That was the reason the Qilin race was weaker than the Dragon or Phoenix races right now.
The Kun race had to find a strong ally before the ensuing chaos.
Shen Tian would be a great choice.
There would be no cons if they stayed on good terms with him.
It would be much better if Shen Tian married his daughter! By then, the Kun race would become great again!
Hmm?
I have to create a chance for her!
Since we don’t have a human partner yet and Shen Tian agreed with the Dragons before, he should not reject us!
It’s unquestionably a much better offer!
...
While Kun Xu’s mind was racing with thoughts, Kun Yu and Shen Tian reached a stalemate.
Kun Yu felt very helpless as she realized the longer they fought, the more she understood that she could not win.
Shen Tian seemed to read her every move.
Each time she made an attack, Shen Tian would dodge it perfectly.
Furthermore, Shen Tian’s understanding of Kun Peng offensive arts was increasing tremendously too.
In less than an hour, he had mastered the arts completely.
In Kun Yu’s eyes, Shen Tian was the ancient Kun Peng itself. His moves were filled with mysterious power.
This was the kind of power the Great Void Kun race was looking for!
They all looked at him in awe.
“Why are you only defending? Do you like me?”
Seeing that Shen Tian had blocked all her attacks without making a single attack, she sent Shen Tian a voice transmission.
Huh?
Shen Tian was stunned for a moment.
Where is the link between these two things?
Kun Yu smiled and stopped attacking.
“Never mind, I’m tired. I admit defeat! My attacks are useless against you, and you can’t bear to hurt me. It’s a boring fight.”
Shen Tian, “...”
I just feel that it is weird to beat you up in front of your father...
What if your father dots you too much?
Well, it’s not the first time I met girls that like to fantasize.
Whatever you say is fine.
He was in her territory anyway. Shen Tian felt that it would be safer that way.
Yes, safety came first!
Although Shen Tian was not afraid of death, he had yet to obtain the Triple Light Divine Water and the three Sage artifacts.
...
Shen Tian retracted his aura and cupped his hands together. “Princess Yu’s understanding of the Kun arts is superb. I’ve learned a lot.”
Kun Yu replied, “If that’s the case, we should spar again in the future.”
Shen Tian smiled and said, “Sure.
“Since I have comprehended the Kun Peng Dao, I should return it to you!”
Kun Yu and Kun Xu became very excited upon hearing that.
No one from the Kun race could resist the Kun Peng Dao’s temptation!
It was the most suitable heritage art, and only the Kun race could use it to the fullest.
Well, Shen Tian was an exception.
If they could comprehend the Kun Peng Dao, their strength would be boosted greatly.
Feeling their urge, Shen Tian chose not to tease them any further. He raised his right hand and held Kun Yu’s hand. He passed the entire Kun Peng Dao to her through divine consciousness.
He also conveyed some of his understanding of the techniques to her. He had benefited greatly from them, after all.
Kun Yu’s face was red from the excitement, and she mumbled to herself, “This is the complete Kun Peng Dao? What wonderful techniques! It’s so amazing!”
Shen Tian, “...”
“Cough, cough. Princess Yu, you can let go of my hand now,” said Shen Tian.
Kun Yu did not hear Shen Tian and was still indulging in the Kun Peng Dao’s beauty.
“Kun is Yin, Peng is Yang. When the two are merged, Kun Peng is born. Wow! Wow!”
Shen Tian tried to pull his hand back, but Kun Yu held him tightly.
“Princess Yu, why not pass the Kun Peng Dao to the Kun King first and learn it later?”
Kun Yu continued to ignore him. “Ohhh! That’s the Kun Peng’s secret! This is so amazing!”
Shen Tian, “...”
The Kun King shook his head and said, “Sorry for this, Saint. The Kun Peng Dao has mesmerized Yu’er.”
He secretly sent Kun Yu a voice transmission. “Behave yourself! Stop acting like this!”
Then, he used his power and separated the two of them by force.
Kun Yu came back to her senses and looked very puzzled. “Where am I? What happened?”
Shen Tian, “...”
It was really awkward now!
The Kun King took out a storage ring and passed it to Shen Tian.
“Thank you so much for sharing the Kun Peng Dao with us. Please keep this token of appreciation.”
Shen Tian’s eyes lit up, and quickly waved his hands. “Your Excellency, you are too generous.
“The Kun Peng Dao belongs to the Kun race, and it is only right to return it.
“Furthermore, it is no trouble for me at all. I cannot keep any reward!”
The Kun King placed the ring into Shen Tian’s hand and said, “Saint, you are wrong about that. It may be a simple thing for you to do, but it is a second chance for all of us!
“This is just a token of appreciation. If you don’t keep it, how will the five regions’ people look at us?
“Do you want them to call me someone with no gratitude?”
Shen Tian paused for a moment and said, “Ermm, since Your Excellency insists, I will keep it.”
He took the storage ring and sighed again.
“I do not have anything of value on me right now.
“I ought to bring some gifts with me when I visit. However, I did find an Enlightenment tea leaf when I was exploring the Chaotic Star Island domain.
“Since Your Excellency and Princess Yu are about to comprehend the Kun Peng Dao, I believe this tea would be very beneficial.”
At that, Shen Tian took a white jade bottle with a silver tea leaf out of his ring. It was about three inches in length and looked like a mini Kun Peng.
Although it was not moving, Yin and Yang were flowing around it constantly.
This leaf was very suitable for the Kun race to comprehend the Kun Peng Dao.
Enlightenment tea leaf!
And it was silver!
When seeing this leave, everyone, including the Kun King, was shocked.
He knew exactly how rare a silver Enlightenment tea leaf was. It was the best Enlightenment tea leaf.
Only a 100,000-year-old Tree of Enlightenment could produce leaves of this color.
Even if the tree met the requirement, it was still rare to produce a silver leaf.
Back in Middle Ground, Huang Shi had spent 8,000 years growing a Tree of Enlightenment. He had given it countless treasures as nutrients, yet it had not grown out a single silver leaf!
The silver leaves only existed in the ancient books.
Even if someone obtained a silver Enlightenment tea leaf, they would keep it for themselves so that they could use it at the Sage stage.
Therefore, some Sages were willing to use Sage artifacts to trade for the silver Enlightenment tea leaves in the black market.
Even then, it was not easy to obtain the leaves!
Kun Xu did not expect Shen Tian to find such a treasure in Chaotic Star Island!
Moreover, this silver leaf was very compatible with the Kun Peng Dao!
Thus, it was extremely valuable to Kun Xu. He had just gotten his hands on the Kun Peng Dao, and he would have to spend a long time comprehending it.
He could reduce the comprehension time greatly and gain a deeper understanding of it with this leaf.
It was a chance for him to ascend to immortality!
...
Kun Xu’s breath quickened. He wanted to be courteous like Shen Tian, but he was afraid that Shen Tian would really take it back.
After all, this kind of interaction was really out of politeness alone.
I cannot risk it!
Kun Xu took the bottle and could not stop the smile on his face. “What have we done to deserve this? Hahaha, thank you so much!
“Sacred Leader Zhang is so fortunate to have you a Saint like you! If I had a Saint like you, I would be smiling even in my worst nightmare!”
Although it was just a compliment, Kun Xu’s eyes reddened slowly.
He would say similar things to North Sea prodigies too, but he did not mean it at all. He was very proud of his son and daughter, and he did not think anyone else was better than them!
Kun Ming and Kun Yu were both North Sea’s top prodigies.
There was no way Kun Xu would be jealous of others.
Nonetheless, he was extremely jealous after seeing Shen Tian.
He knew that he was not as strong as the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, but the difference was not so great.
I was hoping Kun Ming could be better than Zhang Longyuan’s disciple at first.
But now... why is my son so weak?
...
Both of them had been to Chaotic Star Island for an experiential journey, but the Divine Firmament Saint had comprehended the entire Kun Peng Dao and obtained treasures like silver leaves!
Kun Xu did not believe that Shen Tian had only found this leaf.
What are the odds that it’s just nicely in the shape of a Kun Peng?
He has obviously obtained many other things from the Chaotic Star Island domain.
At least, he has many silver leaves with him!
What about my son?
He did not encounter a single fortuitous opportunity in Chaotic Star Island!
Yes, he found Kun Peng Island, but what happened? He suffered a Qi Deviation!
What a shame! What a shame!
Zhang Longyuan! Why is your disciple even stronger than you?
The seawater today is really salty!
