Chapter 409: Mecha Man: Qin Yundi!
At Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, on Saint Mountain...
Two figures morphed into lightning and shot down from the skies, destroying their surroundings.
The Divine Firmament disciples appeared and couldn’t help sighing at the sight of those two.
These two were truly antsy!
The Sacred Leader had just been gone for half a day, and they were fighting again.
The surrounding disciples watched on, but none of them intervened. They knew that only someone like the Sacred Leader or Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus could subdue these two!
The two figures, one in pursuit and the other fleeing, exuded a powerful aura. Rays of divine light spread out, piercing through the fabrics of space.
...
The one being pursued was the fat Taoist priest.
And the one pursuing him was the pure white tortoise dressed in flowery pants.
The fat Taoist priest looked rather pathetic. His robes were torn and tattered, and he had a huge bump on his head.
Although he was fleeing, he continued to rant. “Stupid tortoise. If you continue to chase me, I will barbeque you with my Lightning Fist!”
Yes, those two fellows were Bai Di and Yue Yunde.
After the Immortal Abode Island trial, the man and tortoise had been brought back to the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground by the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.
The main reason was that these two chaps were major troublemakers.
One of them was a professional tomb-raider who even raided the ancestral tomb of a certain sacred ground in Middle Ground and nearly started a major war.
The tortoise was just as bad. He relied on his extreme speed and stole some high-level spirit herbs. One could not help worrying about those two.
It was just half a month to the grand Saint Coronation Ceremony. There would be visitors from everywhere. The core personnel from all the sacred grounds would be here at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground.
It would be a huge loss of face if anyone made a complaint then.
To be safe, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had these two troublemakers stay at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground to prevent them from stirring up any more trouble.
But even while at the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, those two were not behaving at all.
Those two chaps had never seen eye to eye. After the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus left the sacred ground, they started fighting again!
Bai Di morphed into a golden beam and chased after Yue Yunde.
He shouted, “Fat Taoist priest! How dare you steal my coffin! Return it to me immediately!”
Yue Yunde scurried about as he fled, looking somewhat pathetic. “That coffin is an ancient artifact I dug out during my archaeological expedition. Who said it is yours? Why don’t you call it? See if it answers you?”
Bai Di flew into a rage. “Would you have managed to get so many items without me?”
Yue Yunde retorted, “You would not have gotten anything without me either!”
With that, Yue Yunde took out treasure after treasure and tossed them at Bai Di!
Every single artifact was shiny and looked extraordinary. They were supreme-grade Spirit artifacts.
...
Bai Di was fuming when he saw that Yue Yunde still possessed so many treasures.
“Fatso! You are a real scoundrel. You still have so many treasures hidden on you! How dare you cheat me. I will bite you to death!”
A golden light dazzled as Bai Di increased his speed. He bit Yue Yunde on the buttocks!
Yue Yunde jumped up. “Damn you! Are you a tortoise or a dog? How dare you bite me?”
Yue Yunde’s butt glowed with light and magic. There was clearly some artifact protecting his bum, and he was not hurt at all. This also proved that Yue Yunde was not that simple!
It should be pointed out that Bai Di was a Void Lightning Tortoise. He was once an elite practitioner.
Although his power had reverted to the Mighty Prowess realm after being reborn, he was not your usual Demon Venerable.
Even so, Bai Di did not have that much of an upper hand over Yue Yunde. This proved that Yue Yunde could be considered one of the top Demon Venerables.
However, although Yue Yunde’s physical body was fine, his clothes failed to withstand Bai Di’s teeth.
Rip!
A huge hole appeared in Yue Yunde’s robe, revealing his bright red underwear.
With his butt wiggling left and right, it was a downright “sexy” sight!
The Divine Firmament disciples in the crowd couldn’t help sniggering at the sight of those bright red underpants.
Of course, they only dared to snigger in secret.
Yue Yunde was still their ex-ex-ex-ex-ex Divine Firmament Saint. They had to give him some respect.
The fat Taoist priest’s face darkened. The corners of his mouth twitched wildly. “Damn you! You have utterly embarrassed me! How can I face those Divine Firmament disciples again?”
My status in society will be destroyed!
Yue Yunde felt that his societal status was really at the brink of death.
Nonetheless, Bai Di did not let up. He activated his Electric Shadow Footwork and charged toward Yue Yunde.
Yue Yunde got enraged. “Old tortoise, I will smash your head if you bite me again!
“Arh!
“No, no!
“Softer, softer. You cannot bite that particular area!
“Ah!”
Yue Yunde’s robe was in tatters, and his body was covered in bite marks. He looked very pathetic!
...
Rumble!
The fabrics of space twisted, and a dazzling light erupted!
A tunnel appeared in the void, and several figures emerged.
It was the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, Shen Tian, and the rest.
After the gang’s cultivation levels rose, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader created a void tunnel and led the group back.
Of course, Princess Linglong insisted on following along.
Her line of thought was simple: “I will go wherever Brother Shen goes!”
Zhang Yunxi was naturally strongly opposed to it.
The two of them were evenly matched, and neither would give way. Nothing came out of their earlier battle.
On the way, the girls bickered but did not really come to physical blows again.
After everyone appeared, the faces of the Divine Firmament disciples were filled with joy and adoration. Some of them even had tears in their eyes.
“The Sacred Leader and the rest are back!”
“And Senior Brother Saint too!!”
“Senior Brother Saint has returned safely. It is indeed a cause for celebration!”
“After over a month, Senior Brother Saint managed to return safely. The heavens must be protecting him!”
“According to Uncle Gui, it is Concubine Lan who is protecting him.”
...
In an instant, the entire Divine Firmament Sacred Ground was in an uproar.
By the time Shen Tian and his group all emerged, they were totally dumbstruck by the sight before them.
Bai Di was still chasing after Yue Yunde and biting him. Yue Yunde was fiercely counterattacking by using his lightning power to form a golden divine dog, which pounced back at Bai Di.
Thereafter, Bai Di executed his Tortoise Fist and smashed that golden dog!
The force of that fist was beyond powerful!
Bai Di slowly withdrew his fist and smirked. “That’s all? Little fatso, your lightning skills are too lousy!”
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura rippled. He could no longer bear to watch this anymore.
He flung the sleeves of his robes and separated the two.
The man and tortoise instantly stopped their ruckus the moment they saw that the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had made his move.
No choice. If they continued making trouble and had to be subdued, neither of them would benefit.
They would be utterly dismayed then.
...
Yue Yunde was delighted at the sight of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader. He rushed over.
His expression changed as he whined. “Master, you must speak up for me. That stupid white tortoise has no morals. He is bullying me even though he is older than me. I am just a young man of a few hundred years in age, but he attacked me on the sly!”
Yue Yunde whimpered and sniffled, looking very pitiful.
The corners of Bai Di’s mouth twitched. “Fatso, you are talking nonsense. How dare you besmear my name?
“Take another of my Tortoise Fist!”
Bai Di reached out his fists as he conjured a massive fist image, all ready to strike Yue Yunde.
Yue Yunde shrank back and quickly ducked behind the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader’s heavenly aura rippled. “Senior Bai Di, please let this matter be on my account.”
In the blink of an eye, the massive fist image disappeared.
Bai Di drew back his hand. “Since this kid has spoken up for you, I will spare your life then, you fatso!”
Unexpectedly, Bai Di was shuddering inwardly. He had lived a long life, but after being reborn, his powers were only at the Mighty Prowess realm.
The Divine Firmament Sacred Leader was a Sage who had undergone tribulation. His cultivation level was deep beyond fathom. If he behaved recklessly in front of the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader, he would probably suffer a major thrashing.
Bai Di was very self-aware when it came to this!
“Thank you, Master!”
Yue Yunde shamelessly thanked him.
However, his eyes suddenly filled with shock. He couldn’t help exclaiming.
“H-how is this possible? How did your cultivation levels increase by so much in just half a day?”
Yue Yunde was stunned. He knew that Zhang Yunxi and the rest were previously Early-Stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
They all reached Peak-Stage Nascent Soul after a single trip?
Am I seeing things?
...
“Heavens, did you all get a shot of magic adrenaline? How did your cultivation levels increase so quickly?”
What kind of adrenaline is that potent? I will be able to beat up that stupid white tortoise if I can get a shot too, right?
I want it so badly!
Feeling rather resigned, Fang Chang explained, “First Senior Brother, we didn’t take any adrenaline shots. This is all thanks to the Saint’s Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.”
“Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill? What’s that?”
Yue Yunde felt rather doubtful.
Even if Shen Tian was the great Son of Providence, he couldn’t possibly be that lucky!
What kind of pill is able to help so many people’s cultivation level increase by so much? I can feel that even Master and Martial Uncle’s aura seem to have grown stronger?
Yue Yunde was still doubtful when Bai Di stepped forward. He morphed into a streak of golden light and appeared right in front of Shen Tian. “Good kid. It’s been a few days since I last saw you, and your cultivation level has increased by quite a bit!
“The moment I saw you, I could tell that you were a very successful man in cultivation and had a bright future ahead!
“Can you give me a few of those Chaotic-something-something pills to try? Maybe if I am in a good mood, I will give you some peerless great divine technique!”
Bai Di felt very envious of everyone’s increase in cultivation level. Thus, he shamelessly tried to praise and entice Shen Tian into giving him some of those pills.
Shen Tian, “???”
Why does this feel like deja vu?
At the side, Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus quietly turned his face away.
Yue Yunde snapped out of his trance and called out, “You old tortoise, you attacked me when I was not ready!”
With that, Yue Yunde also stepped forth and clung to Shen Tian. “Junior Brother! I am so pitiful. That old tortoise has been bullying me the entire time.
“Junior Brother, can you give me some of those pills too? When my power increases, I will teach that old tortoise a good lesson!”
Bai Di, “...”
“Stupid fatso, how dare you try to compete with me for the pills? Take my Tortoise Fist!”
Yue Yunde leaped up into the air and hollered, “Old tortoise, stop your stupid act. I will smash you after I take the pill!”
Now that my Junior Brother Shen Tian has returned, I have someone to back me up. I will make soup out of you later!
Of course, I have to get that pill first!
Yue Yunde turned back to Shen Tian, all prepared to grovel for that pill.
Bai Di had the same idea. Man and tortoise clung onto Shen Tian, one on either side of him.
The corners of Shen Tian’s mouth twitched. He felt an urge to kick these two fellows and send them flying off into the air.
Luckily, the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader and Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus intervened. They picked up Yue Yunde and Bai Di by the scruff of their necks and dragged them away.
“You two are an embarrassment to us!”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus couldn’t help shaking his head. He seemed to have forgotten how the Divine Firmament Sacred Leader had to drag him away in the same manner earlier.
Bai Di and Yue Yunde struggled wildly as they were being dragged away.
They continued hollering, “We just want to have a taste. Just a taste!”
Fang Chang muttered to himself, “Why do those words sound so familiar?”
Shen Tian, “...”
The crowd, “...”
Heavenly Venerable Azure Lotus’ face darkened even further!
...
Rumble!
A loud rumble thundered through the region as a powerful aura filled the space!
Countless light rays as dazzling as the sun engulfed the entire sacred ground!
A massive shimmering figure descended, its aura heavy and intense, like a ferocious tiger stalking down the mountain.
Boom!
Dust and dirt flew.
The crowd turned to see a massive white tiger appear on the sacred ground. It was at least 1,000 feet in size and dazzled as if it had been drenched in liquid gold.
However, the main thing was the aura this white tiger exuded. It was as powerful as a Heavenly Venerable!
“What is that?”
Fang Chang and the rest immediately went on high alert!
If this was not the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, they might have thought that they were being invaded by one of the Southern Border demon races.
On the other side, Shen Tian just gazed at the white tiger, and the corners of his lips twitched. “A shape-changing giant robot can also pass through?”
Yes, this was no white tiger!
It was a robot forged using Spirit Gold, or perhaps you could call it a “Gundam”!
At that point, a figure suddenly appeared on the head of the white tiger robot. “Senior Brother Saint, come and see the results of my latest research.”
The person had blonde hair and narrow eyes, with refined, handsome features. It was Qin Yundi!
Qin Yundi was a true disciple of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground, but he didn’t focus on cultivation. Instead, he concentrated on researching all sorts of weird inventions.
Under Shen Tian’s guidance, he had developed the Yin Yang Lightning Explosion Talisman, the Lotus Shooting Gun, and the Yin Yang Demon-Penetrating Gun.
It had been a while since Shen Tian had last seen Qin Yundi. He had actually managed to invent a shape-changing giant robot!
Qin Yundi jumped down from the white metal tiger and looked at Shen Tian with shining eyes.
“Senior Brother Saint, I have successfully practiced the Thousand Weapons Puppet Arts to an extremely high level.
“I have created this puppet, the Lightning White Tiger!
“It is forged from Spirit Gold and can store Mixed Divine Lightning. When I activate this puppet, it can display the powers of a Heavenly Venerable!
“In addition, this puppet is very easy to operate. Even a Golden Core cultivator can easily control it!”
Qin Yundi was full of excitement as he introduced the results of his research.
Everyone was shocked by his words.
They couldn’t imagine that this fearsome-looking white tiger was just a puppet.
More importantly, it was a puppet with the powers of a Heavenly Venerable?
And even a Golden Core cultivator could easily control it?
Didn’t this mean that a Golden Core cultivator could make use of this puppet to defeat a Heavenly Venerable?
Oh my god!
This can allow a Golden Core cultivator to exhibit the battle prowess of a Heavenly Venerable?
Too fierce!
...
Although this puppet only had the battle prowess of a Heavenly Venerable and could never be a threat to a Sage, it could be mass-produced!
If they could create more of these puppets, wouldn’t the battle prowess of the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground’s upper management be greatly enhanced?
It should be pointed out that a Heavenly Venerable practitioner was not just some common weed that could be found anywhere.
Even within the sacred ground, most of the Heavenly Venerables were elders and held very high status.
Thanks to this puppet’s power, a Golden Core disciple could raise their level to a Heavenly Venerable’s. It was obvious just how awesome this thing was!
It didn’t matter that this puppet was only able to hold itself against a Heavenly Venerable and may not be able to secure a guaranteed win.
It didn’t matter that forging this kind of puppet required large amounts of Spirit Gold and lightning energy. It would still be worth it.
After all, a Heavenly Venerable was already considered an elite-level power in the sacred ground.
Qin Yundi looked very eager. “Senior Brother Saint, what do you think of this puppet?”
Shen Tian was astounded after listening to Qin Yundi’s animated explanation.
A-awesome Brother!
You are able to create a Heavenly Venerable Gundam so quickly!
If I give you a little more time, you will probably be able to come up with a spaceship?
By then, we can just fly straight to the Celestial World. No need for tribulations then!
Ahem, of course, that was not possible.
The Celestial World was enclosed in a protective array. It was not even part of this world. Even if there was a spaceship, it could not penetrate the protective array and enter the Celestial World.
Also, entering the Celestial World with powers of this mediocre level? That would be suicide.
...
Even for Shen Tian, who had seen it all, he couldn’t help praising, “Not bad!”
He felt rather pleased with the sight of a mecha in this world.
After all, men loved mecha!
“But I feel that calling this thing a puppet doesn’t do it justice. I wonder if Senior Brother has any suggestions?”
Qin Yundi had mulled over this for many days but couldn’t come up with a good name.
The Thousand Weapons Puppet Arts described the method to create a puppet.
When Qin Yundi was creating this white tiger puppet, he also added in his knowledge of explosives and lightning transformation, which Shen Tian had passed on to him.
Strictly speaking, this lightning white tiger was not 100% a puppet. It belonged to a brand new genre. As a result, Qin Yundi wanted to ask Shen Tian if he had a better suggestion.
Shen Tian replied calmly, “Let’s call it a mecha then!”
Qin Yundi immediately fell into deep thought. He muttered to himself, “Mecha... Mecha!
“What a formidable name. This white tiger puppet was forged from Spirit Gold. It possesses high mobility and is strong as can be. It has a very powerful defense!
“Mecha is the best name for it!
“Alright, this white tiger puppet will be called Metal-Elemental White Tiger Mecha from now on!”
Qin Yundi beamed. Actually, he didn’t care what it was called. The main thing was that Shen Tian had named it. Any name chosen by Senior Brother would be the most perfect!
...
Shen Tian gazed at Qin Yundi, the corners of his mouth twitching.
Whatever you say!
You are the one who created this!
It’s just a simple matter of naming it, right?
Why are you so excited that your whole face has turned red?
A grown man shouldn’t behave so emotionally even when playing with a shape-changing giant robot, right?
When looking at the exhilarated blond-haired, narrow-eyed youth, a notion popped into Shen Tian’s head.
Are all narrow-eyed people monsters? Will this fellow end up like Orochimaru, performing weird experiments!?
Tssss!
I don’t think so. After all, Orochimaru focused on biological experiments, while Junior Brother Qin focuses on lightning mecha.
I am worrying too much.
