The giant Divine Firmament Flying Vessel was hovering at the edge of the Primordial Battlefield, and it had caught the attention of many people.
Many disciples from the grotto-heavens and blessed-lands felt very jealous when looking at the flying vessel.
Too bad, such a device was an extremely rare tactical resource, and only the sacred grounds could afford to use it casually.
Most of these disciples reached the nearest city from the teleportation circle first before flying here with Sword Kinesis Flight.
They had encountered extreme weather phenomena, such as thunderstorms and hurricanes, so it was really a hell of a ride.
They looked at the disciples from Divine Firmament with envy, just like how normal people would look at sports cars owners!
“The Divine Firmament Sacred Ground is finally here? What great timing.”
“What’s so great about the sacred ground? We had been waiting here for so long!”
“Shhh. Keep your volume down. Don’t let them hear us.”
“It’s okay. We are using voice transmission. They cannot hear us!”
“I heard that Divine Firmament’s Saint is an amazing guy!”
“LOL! We are all Foundation Establishment cultivators. How amazing can he be? It is just rumors!”
…
Many people crowded around the vessel as it landed.
Even the Grand White Grotto-Heaven’s little princess, Li Lian’er, was among them.
Little Spirit Fairy was chasing behind her with an unpleasant look on her beautiful face.
“Li Lian’er! Where is my Brother Shen Ao!”
Li Lian’er ignored her. She was smiling happily with her ahoge jumping up and down. Even the calabash’s spout was dancing happily in its pot.
Other core members from the grotto-heavens and blessed-lands gathered too.
Everyone knew that when the two major sacred grounds met, the Primordial Battlefield trial would officially start!
Boom!
The flying vessel landed and caused the dust to spread due to the impact.
Slowly, the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground members came down one by one, including the elderly.
Cough, cough. The the elderly were here because Shopkeeper Song and Eunuch Gui had requested to come along.
They looked very out of place among the younger disciples.
“Oh? Why are old men among the Foundation Establishment disciples in the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground?”
“I have no idea where the sacred ground found these people. Are they really lacking in manpower now?”
“I heard that these were the relatives of the new Saint back in the Country of Fire. When they entered the sacred ground, they became inner-sect disciples straightaway.”
“Wow, just because of one guy?”
“That makes me sick! They are certainly well-connected to the sacred ground!”
“It turns out that the amazing Saint is just trying to benefit his own family after all! That is so low!”
…
The disciples from the grotto-heavens and blessed-lands were chatting away.
They were the top Foundation Establishment cultivators in their sects, and it was natural for them to feel proud of themselves.
Thus, when they met people who were better than them, they felt salty instantly.
Thoughts like “I’m so good, but the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground rejected me before, and now they recruited some old man instead of me?” were bombarding their minds.
These cultivators felt it was unfair as they believed they were much better than others.
They had a bad impression of the Saint even though they had yet to meet him.
Of course, these disciples only dared to talk in such a manner secretly.
When they were in front of the Elders or Saints of the sacred grounds, they were very well-behaved.
Qin Yundi led 108 Foundation Establishment disciples out of the flying vessel.
However, the highly anticipated Shen Tian did not appear.
Liu Taiyi and Shopkeeper Song exchanged a look and thought to themselves, Is it not grand enough for our Senior Brother?
They nodded at each other and took out a flag each, and started waving in front of the disciples.
In an instant, the Divine Firmament disciples released their long swords, and the swords flew around in the air.
Soon, the swords formed the character “Tian” in the air, looking extremely splendid.
“Top among the Immortals and pride on earth! We will reach Immortal Ascension if we follow him every day!
“The Favored Ones from the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground welcome Senior Brother Saint!”
Boom!
Nine Yin-Yang Lightning Explosion Talismans exploded in the air and produced an awesome firework.
That was the Ceremonious Explosion Talisman made by Qin Yundi after Liu Taiyi and Song Fugui had suggested it. They believed it would help in the grand entrance of the Saint.
The Saint would appear after the firework. Everyone would cheer for him!
That was the grand opening they were talking about!
Many disciples from Divine Firmament refused to do it initially as it was a very embarrassing thing to do in front of other sects…
However, everyone was willingly doing it now.
The reason was very simple—their Senior Brother was very generous!
Before the flying vessel reached the Primordial Battlefield, Senior Brother Yundi had passed them a bottle of Nirvana Holy Liquid each under the Saint’s instruction.
The Nirvana Holy Liquid was a legendary item that could heal any wounds!
Even if it was just 1mL, it was still very precious.
That was not something that could be measured by any amount of money!
The Saint had given each of them a bottle of Nirvana Holy Liquid for free before the trial—it was just too generous!
Everyone liked such leaders, and they could do any embarrassing things for them!
…
That was how things turned so dramatic right now.
The other talented disciples from other sects were even saltier now, especially the top Foundation Establishment cultivators in their sect. They began to stare at their Junior Brothers.
Look at what the other Junior Brothers are doing! They are helping their Senior Brother so much!
Look at you! What have you done for me!
I’m so jealous, so envious, so salty!
They felt worse after seeing the ‘performance’, and more disciples started to gossip.
“He is just a Foundation Establishment cultivator! Who does he think he is? This is even more spectacular than welcoming a Nascent Soul cultivator!”
“No wonder the Divine Firmament Sacred Ground declined over the past years. Just look at what they’ve been doing!”
“Even the Saint is so boastful. Such a disappointment.”
“Seems like there is nothing special about this Saint after all!”
…
Everyone had a negative impression of the Saint now.
The door of the flying vessel opened, and a man in a white robe walked out.
All the gossip stopped out of a sudden.
What a man!
His eyes were like stars in the sky. He had long hair and a handsome look! He looked just like an immortal visiting their world!
He was wearing a simple white dragon robe, yet he looked so graceful!
No one could question his looks! No one could doubt his charm!
Even the most shameless disciple right here could not say that he looked better than this white-robed man.
Even the most reserved female present could not take her eyes off this handsome man!
The man walked toward the crowd step by step. There was a very nice smell coming from him, and everyone was attracted by it. Even butterflies began to fly around this man and circled around him.
He walked down the flying vessel and took a step out—the dried grass patch around him was rejuvenated in an instant!
The yellow grass began to turn green rapidly, and flowers started to bloom.
As he walked, more flowers blossomed, and more butterflies gathered around him. He was like an immortal walking on earth and bringing life to it!
All the disciples were shocked.
WHO IS THIS HANDSOME MAN?
…
A plant recovered from the shock first. It was the spout of the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash. It was staying on top of Li Lian’er’s head until it saw Shen Tian.
It could not maintain its chill anymore. It bent its own stalk and straightened it out of a sudden. It flew out together with the flower pot toward Shen Tian.
Shen Tian almost used Lightning Fist to hit this incoming flower pot!
Seeing that Shen Tian was holding the spout with care, Li Lian’er was very happy.
No one knew that this girl could have such an expression. She was really glad that the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash was close to Shen Tian.
It is indeed the proof of our love! That’s why it is so attracted to Brother Shen!
She was worried that the calabash had never seen Shen Tian before, and thus it would not like Shen Tian. To her surprise, it liked Shen Tian a lot and even jumped into his arms!
Li Lian’er ran up to Shen Tian and said, “Brother Shen! You finally came to see me! Lian’er missed you so much!”
There was a commotion in the crowd again after hearing this.
“Shen Tian? He is Divine Firmament’s new Saint? OMG! He is soooo amazing!”
“What a look! What a charm! Is he really human? Are you sure he is not an immortal or some kind?”
“He is covered in vigor. Butterflies follow him, and the earth rejuvenates when he walks on it! I have never heard of it before!”
“I thought those disciples were too dramatic! I was so wrong!”
“No wonder the disciples are so supportive of him. He is indeed better than Fang Chang and Zhang Yunting!”
“No other man could bring up my interest now after seeing him. I’ll only marry Shen Tian and no one else!”
“I’ll rather be Shen Tian’s concubine than someone else’s wife! No one can force me otherwise, or I’ll kill myself!”
“I thought I’m the most handsome man in Eastern Wilderness. Who would have thought the Divine Firmament Saint would be so charming. I’ve lost completely. I’ll admit that I’m in second place now!”
“I’m third!”
“I’m fourth!”
“I’m 10,086th!”
“Divine Firmament’s new Saint is really amazing. I’m in love!”
…
The tide had turned completely as everyone was mesmerized by Shen Tian’s looks.
However, Shen Tian was stunned by the Seven-Treasure Fairy Calabash.
Why do I smell like the holy liquid? I just used it to take a bath!
I can understand why butterflies are flying around me, but what are these wasps doing? Are they going to sting me?
I’ll break their stingers with my Mixed Divine Lightning if that happens!
And what is wrong with these grass and flowers?
Seriously, it’s not that I’m not trying to step on them.
But they just keep growing wherever my feet land!
Why? Just because I’m handsome, I can beautify the environment around me too?
Did I not fully absorb the power of the Nirvana Holy Liquid yet? And it is volatilized into the air?
Shen Tian frowned at the thought of it, and he felt he had wasted a lot of money.
However, his expression was misread by others.
The Saint frowned! Why did he frown?
I heard that the Saint could see the future.
Did he see the pitiful fate of many disciples here that they would be in danger? He is feeling sorry for them now!
He is such an awesome Saint! He is charming and caring at the same time! I’m in love!
Shen Tian’s appearance conquered everyone!
…
“Brother Shen! Lian’er took care of the calabash very well!” Li Lian’er said smilingly, “See, the spout is out already!”
Shen Tian nodded. Honestly, he was very fond of this little loli, as long as her father was not around.
“It has indeed grown. It’s really cute.”
Shen Tian touched the leave with his hand, and something came into his mind.
He took a red bottle out of his Archeon Sea Ring, and it contained a white liquid.
The calabash danced even more vigorously now.
Apparently, it wanted the liquid very much!
Shen Tian laughed. It was the Nirvana Holy Liquid that he had used to bathe just now.
He dripped one drop onto the calabash, and it instantly absorbed the liquid. It looked much greener now.
“Interesting!”
Shen Tian put the pot back onto Li Lian’er’s head. Then, he diluted another 10mL of the liquid and fed it to the spout.
The spout drank the liquid quickly, and it emitted a green light before starting to dance even more vigorously. The entire spout was making a wave with its body as though it was high on drugs.
POP!
In the end, it used its vine and pulled its root out of the pot!
Shen Tian was shocked by what he saw.
What is happening now? Is this calabash drunk?
Did it think it was on the dance floor?
