n

n

nA thick floral fragrance flooded the Lotus Thearch’s tomb.

nEveryone crowded around the Lotus Thearch’s cauldron, staring at the 12 Sky-Mending Pills inside.

n

n

n“Are these the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills?”

nThe Lotus Thearch swallowed hard as he couldn’t help sighing on the inside.

nThe 12 pills inside the cauldron were plump and crystalline and exuded a very light, clean fragrance.

nLines of runes ran across the surface of those pills, filled with spiritual harmony as if life itself was streaming inside them.

n

n

nThese were clearly peerless pills cultivated by a level of providence that surpassed even heaven’s will.

nAfter the Chaotic Exceptional Fire’s refinement and absorbing chaotic spirit energy, the effects of these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills would be enough to change one’s destiny!

nThis grade of pill was beyond this mortal world!

nEven if the Lotus Thearch was in peak form and could control the Chaotic Exceptional Fire, he might not be able to cultivate this kind of divine pill.

n

n

n“Brother Shen is so awesome!”

nPrincess Linglong’s face was filled with adoration and worship.

nEven the Thearch was unable to cultivate such a peerless pill, but Brother Shen was able to do it.

nDoesn’t this mean that Brother Shen is even more powerful than the Thearch?

nPfffttt!

nNot only is Brother Shen extremely handsome, but he is also exceptionally talented!

n

n

nFor the future of the Great Wilderness Celestial Dynasty, no matter what, I must entice Brother Shen over to our side.

nEven if I have to sacrifice my body, I am willing!

nPrincess Linglong’s face subconsciously grew red as she quietly promised herself.

nBut…

nWhy is Brother Shen staring at me?

nDon’t tell me Brother Shen wants to…

nIf Brother Shen wants it, I will give it to him! And more!

nUpon feeling Shen Tian’s searing eager gaze, Princess Linglong’s face grew even redder!

n

n

nYes, Shen Tian was not looking at the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

nInstead, he was looking at Princess Linglong’s… providence halo on top of her head.

nAccording to past experience, as long as he gained a great fortuitous opportunity together with a Child of Providence, both of their providence would be increased.

nNow that the Lotus Thearch’s legacy had been achieved, why was the halo above Princess Linglong’s head still unchanged!?

nEver since a large portion of his providence had been shaved, he had been very down on his luck.

nI must raise my providence, or there’s no way I can survive!

nAt that moment, there was a sudden change in Princess Linglong’s providence halo. Her formerly pale purple providence halo gradually turned a darker shade of purple. The purple glow became more profound, looking like a dazzling purple sun.

nMeanwhile, Shen Tian instantly felt very relaxed and soothed all over.

nIncreasing!

nIncreasing!

nMy providence is finally increasing!

nThe formerly pale gold providence halo on top of Shen Tian’s head also glowed brighter. The dazzling golden glow moved in mighty waves, changing Shen Tian’s providence halo into a yellow gold color.

nIt did not return to what it was before, but it made Shen Tian feel more confident now. After all, when one’s providence was at downtrodden levels, there was no sense of security at all.

n

n

nAt least now it had recovered some!

nNext up, he had to buck up and leverage off more fortuitous opportunities!

nThat’s what I will do!

nBefore my providence returns to previous levels, I must continue to harvest!

n…

n“Senior Lotus Thearch, let’s share these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills equally!”

nShen Tian decided to share these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills equally.

nIf a normal person managed to obtain these destiny-changing peerless pills, they would definitely keep them all for themselves.

nAfter all, these were very precious Thearch-level pills and were absolutely priceless. It would be an insult to those pills to exchange for Sage-level artifacts!

nAcross all the cultivators in the five regions, no one could resist that temptation.

nBut Shen Tian had no intention of monopolizing everything. His personal values would not allow that.

nIf the Lotus Thearch had not provided the recipe for the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill and the 12th Stage Lotus, he would never have been able to refine the Thearch-level Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

nShen Tian was not the kind of person to forget a good turn. He would never monopolize these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills.

nMoreover, these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills might not be that useful to him.

nAccording to the recipe, one of the effects was to raise one’s foundation and ability to decipher things, as well as to mend any physical deficiencies, to make one’s body perfect.

nHowever, only the first dose would be effective.

nAfter all, this was a destiny-changing pill. One could not possibly use it without any limits.

nGiven Shen Tian’s current constitution, whether it was his foundation or ability to decipher things, he was already at peak levels. There was not much more space for improvement.

nThis Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill would not be of much use to him.

n…

nSurprise flashed across the Lotus Thearch’s eyes.

n“My friend, you are so generous. You are willing to give away this Thearch-level pill.

n“Not bad, not bad at all.”

nA Thearch-level pill was no common item. It was the kind of peerless pill that would stir the heart of a great Thearch and drive Sages mad.

nEven a wealthy family in the Primordial Age would not dare to be so extravagant as to give away such a Thearch-level pill.

nAnd this was a Thearch-level pill that could enhance one’s foundation and ability to decipher things.

nEven amongst other Thearch-level pills, it was considered a supreme-grade item and was priceless.

nBut Shen Tian had suggested sharing it equally. The Lotus Thearch was very pleased.

n“Senior, you are too kind in your praise. Being down-to-earth has always been one of the key points in the path of cultivation.

n“Pills are just superficial things—a supplement.

n“When one’s body is strong on its own, that is true power.

n“Moreover, pills are meant for people to use. We must use it in a way that will maximize the results.”

nShen Tian smiled, his eyes firm and resolute.

n“What a sensible boy you are. But this pill is of no use to me.

n“I am just the remnants of a soul and cannot use it. You should keep it for yourself!”

nThe Lotus Thearch smiled. He could see that Shen Tian was a true man.

nHe was not greedy for treasures and was full of good, upright morals.

nHe is definitely worthy of receiving my legacy!

n…

n“Linglong, according to our earlier agreement, we will share all fortuitous opportunities.

n“I cannot share the legacies Senior Lotus Thearch passed on without his permission.

n“But for these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills, we can share them equally!”

nSince the Lotus Thearch had no use for them, I can give them to Princess Linglong!

nThis was someone who had a purple providence halo… a Daughter of Providence!

nHe had previously managed to leverage off her providence, and things had turned out great.

nHis own providence had been much boosted!

nIt would do him good to “fatten her up” now so that her providence would rub off him in the future!

nYeap, just a very chaste rubbing!

nNo wayward thoughts, please!

nShen Tian took out six Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills and handed them to Princess Linglong.

n“Brother Shen, I cannot accept them!

n“This is Brother Shen’s fortuitous opportunity. How can you give me so many!?

n“You are the one who refined these Chaotic Sky-Mending pills, and they should belong to you.

n“Brother Shen, please take them back.”

nPrincess Linglong hurriedly rejected him, her face blushing red.

nShe was truly embarrassed to accept so many. She was not trying to put up a false show.

nIn Princess Linglong’s opinion, if Shen Tian had not led the way, she might not have been able to find the tomb.

nShe was already very satisfied with obtaining half of the Lotus Thearch’s legacy.

nNow, Shen Tian was still going to give her these Thearch-level pills.

nPrincess Linglong felt very moved. She also seemed to realize something.

nBrother Shen is so good to me. He is even giving me Thearch-level pills just like that.

nDon’t tell me he likes me!

nYeap, it must be because he likes me that he treats me so well!

nSo happy~

nPrincess Linglong blushed pink as she continued to daydream.

nShen Tian scratched his head when he heard Princess Linglong’s refusal.

nWhat’s going on? Why is everyone rejecting these free fortuitous opportunities?

nAt that moment, the Lotus Thearch spoke up. “Young girl, these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills are very useful to you. They can transform your physical body. Take them!

n“Also, if you don’t take these Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills, you will never be able to catch up to this kid.”

nThe corners of the Lotus Thearch’s mouth twitched when he witnessed Princess Linglong’s refusal.

nWho is this silly girl? Rejecting such a great fortuitous opportunity when it is being handed to her just like that?

nIs her family too rich? They have too many resources?

nIt should be pointed out this was not your usual herb that could just be plucked off the roadside. This is the destiny-changing Thearch-level pill!

nWhen did this Thearch-level pill become so worthless?

nNo one wants it even when it is being given for free?

nThe Lotus Thearch felt like his entire worldview was on the brink of collapse!

nThis young girl had gotten half his legacy and could be considered half his heir. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have bothered to speak up. He could care less!

nSo foolish!

n“Ah, alright then!

n“Brother Shen, just give me one then!”

nPrincess Linglong was shocked at the mention that Shen Tian might progress too far ahead for her to catch up.

nSenior Lotus Thearch was right. Shen Tian’s innate talent was too powerful. He would definitely dominate the five regions in the future and be unsurpassable.

nIf I don’t raise my own power, I will never match up to Brother Shen.

nWhat if there are some other cheap sluts wanting to snatch him from me?

nI must take action!

nNo way!

nI must raise my power so that I can be by Brother Shen’s side.

nPrincess Linglong’s eyes were full of determination as she held the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

nFrom today onward, I must become stronger!

n…

n“Alright, you guys refine this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill first. I will help you set up a protection array.”

nThe Lotus Thearch spoke up. He also wanted to see just how effective this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill would be.

nAfter all, this was a peerless pill handed down from the Antiquity Age. It possessed heaven-defying powers.

nEven the Lotus Thearch was very curious just how powerful it would be!

n“Thank you, Senior Lotus Thearch!”

nShen Tian and Princess Linglong nodded and thanked the Lotus Thearch for his kindness.

nPrincess Linglong wanted to quickly improve her power and talent so that she could catch up to Shen Tian.

nSo why did Shen Tian agree to it? The main reason was that he was greedy…

nWhile gazing at the glistening, plump Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills, which exuded a clear fragrance, he couldn’t help licking his lips.

nEven though he did not have much use for these pills, they looked delicious!

nShen Tian had learned pill-refining because he wanted a change in taste.

nNow that he had this Thearch-level pill right before him, he should at least have a taste!

nI have never eaten a Thearch-level pill before!

nI have worked so hard for the past two weeks. I cannot let myself have worked for free!

n…

nThe two of them soon consumed one Chaotic Sky-Mending pill each.

nPrincess Linglong sat down cross-legged and shut her eyes to start refining the pill.

nMeanwhile, Shen Tian’s eyes lit up after he swallowed that pill.

n“Mmm? Taste is not bad. It tastes like chocolate with a lotus paste core…

n“I ate it too fast just now. I didn’t get a chance to fully appreciate the flavor. Shall I have another one?”

nShen Tian felt quite tempted as he gazed at the remaining 10 Chaotic Sky-Mending Pills.

n“???”

nThe corners of the Lotus Thearch’s mouth twitched.

nWhat do you take this Thearch-level pill for?

nA streetside snack?

nA chocolate with a lotus paste core?

nWhat’s that? Sounds rather delicious…

nNo, no, no, this is a pill! A Thearch-level pill, alright!

nWho eats a Thearch-level pill like a streetside snack!

n“Ahem, young man, one cannot consume too much of this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill. You better quickly start refining now to benefit from its effects!”

nThe Lotus Thearch quickly reminded Shen Tian when he saw that he really intended to eat another pill.

nA Thearch-level pill was very powerful. Just one was enough for a Sage to refine for many years.

nTake Princess Linglong, for example. She could barely refine 1

/1,000 of the Thearch-level pill she had just consumed.

nThe remaining pill would be stored inside her body, to be gradually refined and absorbed as her cultivation level increased.

nAt the same time, it would quietly continue to improve her constitution and benefit her future cultivation.

nSuch a powerful Thearch-level pill. And you treat it as a sweet!

nYou have barely swallowed the first one, and you already want another? Aren’t you worried about your body exploding!?

nAlthough with this kid’s freakish constitution, I reckon that he won’t explode after eating two.

nEven so, he shouldn’t be so wasteful!

nEating a Thearch-level pill like candy?

nJust the thought of it made the Lotus Thearch’s heart ache…

nShen Tian scratched his head. He felt that the Lotus Thearch’s words were rather sensible. Therefore, he sat down cross-legged and started to refine the Thearch-level pill.

nShen Tian also wanted to see just how much this Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill could help him.

nTime passed by the minute and second…

nPrincess Linglong soon refined the pill to the maximum level possible for now.

nAt her current level, it was not possible for her to completely refine the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill. Her physical body was soon filled to the brim, and the excess pill essence spread across her body to be stored.

nAs her cultivation progressed in the future, her body would naturally continue to gradually absorb the rest of the pill.

nBut this pill was enough to let Princess Linglong’s cultivation constitution improve by more than one level.

nIt was definitely enough to completely transform her.

nNot just that, Princess Linglong’s cultivation level would also increase more quickly because of that.

nAfter all, this was a Thearch-level pill. Even though its main effect was not to increase one’s cultivation level, it would still greatly improve Princess Linglong’s cultivation level.

nA dazzling light erupted from Princess Linglong’s body.

nThe dazzling light swirled and enveloped her entire body, making her look very mystical.

nA boundless aura erupted from Princess Linglong, shaking the entire earth.

nMagical rays crisscrossed to form a miraculous image.

nBehind Princess Linglong, a blazing Grotto-Heaven rose up, surrounded by an enigmatic mist and possessing a powerful might.

nEnhanced by the Chaotic Sky-Mending pill, Linglong’s body was undergoing an obvious transformation.

nBoom!

nA loud boom rang out!

nPrincess Linglong’s body shook violently as divine light surfaced from her body as if about to expand across the entire world.

nBehind her, the Grotto-Heaven also vibrated strongly before countless light beams shot out from it.

nAfter the light erupted, it formed a second Grotto-Heaven and then a third. They floated in mid-air.

nLight from the three Grotto-Heavens crisscrossed, exuding terrifying divine energy.

nPrincess Linglong’s aura also surged wildy.

nNascent Soul Early Stage!

nNascent Soul Middle Stage!

nNascent Soul Late Stage!

nAs Princess Linglong’s constitution improved, her cultivation levels immediately shot up to the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

n“This Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill is truly extraordinary. It can result in such a major change in me.”

nThe Lotus Thearch nodded in satisfaction. This was indeed a heaven-defying pill. Even an elite-level constitution like Princess Linglong’s could benefit and transform.

n“Thank you, Brother Shen and Senior Lotus Thearch!”

nPrincess Linglong slowly stopped cultivating and stood up. She was filled with gratitude. She could feel herself transforming and attaining an unprecedented level of progress.

nIn fact, the physical appearance of her body also changed following the enhancement of her fundamental constitution and her ability to decipher things.

nShe became taller and more slender, looking like a pristine pearl glowing exquisitely.

nShe looked vibrant and lively under the light of her Grotto-Heavens.

nHer body was bathed in dazzling divine light, looking very much like a celestial fairy who had just descended upon the mortal world.

nIt was no exaggeration to call her a devastatingly gorgeous fairy lady!

nAs if she could feel her own physical changes, Princess Linglong smiled.

nAfter all, which girl would say no to becoming more beautiful?

nThe more beautiful, the better!

nThis Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill is really too powerful. It can even improve my looks by so much.

nBrother Shen will definitely like me even more now!

nPrincess Linglong turned eagerly to look at Shen Tian, only to see that he was frowning in deep thought. He did not notice her at all.

nThe air was instantly filled with a sense of deep resentment.

n“Master, I feel another wave of resentment…”

nJiu’er’s warning voice rang out as the rosary beads vibrated gently. However, Shen Tian remained in deep thought.

nOr rather, he was caught up in the midst of having doubts about the meaning of life.

n…

n“Something’s not right. Why didn’t I change at all?”

nShen Tian scratched his head. He realized that nothing happened to him after consuming the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

nHis ability to decipher things remained the same. There was not the slightest bit of improvement to his physical body either.

nI might already be at peak, elite levels.

nBut is this all a Thearch-level pill can do?

nIs that all? Is that all?

nI expended so much Yang fire to refine this useless toy?

nWhy do I feel so cheated?

nIs this some kind of fake medicine!?

nAt the very least, it should give me a new avatar!

nLet me look a bit cooler!

nIt must be said that Shen Tian was truly doubting the meaning of life right now.

nShen Tian suddenly radiated with a dazzling light.

nThe Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill was finally taking effect.

nShen Tian was delighted.

nIt’s happening!

nIt’s happening!

nThe avatar is coming out!

nThe light glowed more and more intensely, completely engulfing Shen Tian.

nA huge lotus avatar appeared behind him. The 12th Stage Lotus fluttered with the wind.

nEvery single lotus petal was filled with miraculous magic and power.

n“Is this the… Chaotic Lotus avatar?”

nThe Lotus Thearch was utterly shocked by this sight.

nHis original form had been a 12th Stage Lotus, becoming a Thearch after achieving transcendence back in the Primordial Age.

nAs a result, the Lotus Thearch could feel that Shen Tian now possessed an extremely intense lotus power. It seeped into every part of his body.

nThis was clearly due to a perfect refinement of the Chaotic Sky-Mending Pill.

nBut that’s not all!

nThis lotus power was merging with the chaotic aura inside Shen Tian’s body to form the legendary Chaotic Lotus!

nIt should be pointed out this was a forbidden, peerless pill. It was the top of the top amongst the Thearch-level pills and had only been found in legends.

nEven though it was just an avatar, it was still an unimaginable power.

nThe Lotus Thearch had found records of this kind of avatar in some old books left behind from the Antiquity Age.

nThe records wrote that this Chaotic Lotus was a groundbreaking… avatar that had the power to create a whole new world!

n
