The battle at the Apotheosis Platform had dazzled all the prodigies.
They found it hard to believe that there was really someone who could fight against so many prodigies and win.
Such battle prowess was unimaginable.
It was unparalleled in the world.
Countless prodigies were shocked and exclaimed.
...
As for the defeated geniuses, they were bewildered.
That was because they realized that Shen Tian had used dozens of supreme techniques in the battle.
Those supreme techniques were almost the same as the Paragon inheritances they cultivated.
Most importantly, Shen Tian's comprehension of these supreme techniques had already reached the pinnacle.
The prodigies' mouths twitched.
Who could learn so many supreme techniques at the same time and be even more proficient than someone who focused on comprehending a single technique?
Even Yu Xuzi, who had the Connate Constitution, could not do that!
There must be a secret. This guy must have a secret!
...
Sheng Yangxu could not suppress his curiosity. He stepped forward and said, "Brother Shen's talent is unparalleled. I'm impressed.
May I know where Brother Shen learned the void techniques? "
Sheng Yangxu was extremely shocked.
He had not gained any advantage when fighting against Shen Tian just now.
Instead, Shen Tian had been able to find his position time and time again, causing him to suffer greatly.
Thus, Sheng Yangxu was suspicious.
Could Shen Yuan be a hidden ancestor of their sacred ground? That was why he was so proficient in the void techniques.
Not only Sheng Yangxu, but the other prodigies were also filled with such doubts.
A single person actually contained almost 100 types of Dao Insights, and this was simply unbelievable.
Shen Tian smiled faintly and said, "I just found some ancient heritage, and there are all kinds of techniques recorded inside.
After all, it was not the first time the Evil Spirit race had invaded the five regions. Many supreme inheritances had been lost in battle.
Therefore, the techniques that these Heaven's Favorites cultivated were all incomplete.
Shen Tian had mastered the 108 Primordial Generals' supreme techniques, and he had mastered them to an unfathomable level.
The techniques these prodigies cultivated were naturally not as proficient as Shen Tian's.
Sheng Yangxu's eyes were filled with envy. "Brother Shen's providence is indeed unparalleled to be able to obtain such a fortuitous opportunity!
"However, just having the inheritance is useless. One still needs to rely on talent and comprehension.
"Only someone as talented as Brother Shen can comprehend it!"
Everyone nodded in agreement. They had been completely convinced by Shen Tian.
A prodigy exclaimed, "It is our honor to witness Brother Shen's glory today."
Shen Tian smiled faintly and said modestly, "Daoist Friend, it is fate that brought us together."
"Why don't we have some tea and discuss the Dao?"
With that, Shen Tian took out a large vat and began to brew the Enlightenment Tea.
These prodigies were all Children of Providence, so he naturally had to establish good relations with them.
In the future, he might be able to obtain great luck from them.
…
Hearing Shen Tian's invitation, everyone was flattered.
They'd fought Shen Tian in the past and knew that his comprehension towards Dao Insights was extremely deep.
Although it was said that they were exchanging pointers, it was actually Shen Tian giving them pointers.
After all, with Shen Tian's strength, why would he need to discuss the Dao with them?
Therefore, many people were excited and overjoyed.
However, someone said embarrassedly, "It is already a great honor for Brother Shen to be willing to discuss the Dao with us."
"There is no need to trouble Brother Shen to brew the tea. We can do such a small matter."
A few prodigies walked out. They were proficient in the Dao of Tea and had Sage-grade tea leaves with them.
These people volunteered and wanted to show off their skills.
...
At that moment, Shen Tian took out a few purple and silver leaves of Enlightenment Tea and threw them into the vat.
Sensing the strong Dao aura emitted from the tea leaves, those prodigies were instantly stunned.
"This is... Enlightenment Tea???"
Those prodigies were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that the tea that Shen Tian mentioned was to brew Enlightenment Tea.
The value of this tea was just too high.
Something like the Dao Comprehension Tea was rare and incomparably precious.
Not to mention the prodigies, even their ancestors might not be able to take it out.
In the end, Shen Tian directly took out such precious Enlightenment Tea leaves and prepared to brew them in a vat.
What the heck!?
This guy has a mine at home, and he's so rich?
The prodigies' faces turned red, and they hurriedly stuffed the Sage-grade tea leaves back.
In front of the Enlightenment Tea, these Sage tea leaves were simply trash. They couldn't be taken out at all.
...
Shen Tian was skilled and quickly brewed the Enlightenment Tea.
Soon, an extremely rich tea fragrance spread for thousands of miles.
The fragrance of the tea was also filled with extremely strong Dao aura, making one's mind clear.
The prodigies were shocked, and their eyes burned as they gathered on the vat in front of Shen Tian.
Many people couldn't help but swallow their saliva, drooling.
The Enlightenment Tea was priceless and could enhance the effect of Dao enlightenment.
These people were all top prodigies of the various large factions and were knowledgeable.
But when they saw the Enlightenment Tea, they couldn't help but be tempted.
...
Shen Tian smiled and invited. "Daoist Friend, please come up to taste the tea and discuss the Dao."
Shen Tian still had stock of Enlightenment Tea, so he naturally wouldn't be stingy.
Moreover, the leeks had to be fattened to be the most effective.
Upon hearing Shen Tian's invitation, the prodigies' hearts were in turmoil.
They didn't expect Shen Tian to not only be willing to discuss the Dao, but also share such precious Enlightenment Tea.
His breadth of mind was simply too broad.
Instantly, many prodigies were extremely ashamed. "Brother Shen, this item is just too precious. We don't deserve it."
They had previously ganged up on Shen Tian for the sake of their pride.
Although they hadn't fought, it was equivalent to not caring about martial ethics.
Not only did Shen Tian not care, but he even wanted to give it to them. This made them feel ashamed.
Even though they were tempted by the Enlightenment Tea, they were too embarrassed to go forward.
Shen Tian smiled. "Daoist Friend, please don't stand on ceremony. It's just Enlightenment Tea. What's so precious about it?
If you finish it, I'll just brew more. "
Sheng Yangxu smiled brightly. "Brother Shen, you're too kind!"
Although he said that, his body was very honest.
He directly flew onto the Apotheosis Platform, poured himself a cup of Enlightenment Tea, and slowly sipped it.
"Good tea, good tea!
"This tea should only exist in the heavens. It's rare to smell it in the mortal world!
"I didn't expect Brother Shen to not only be so powerful, but he also has such good tea skills. How admirable."
Sheng Yangxu sighed. Then, he poured a few more cups of Enlightenment Tea and gulped it down.
Seeing this, the prodigies finally stopped declining. They were afraid that Sheng Yangxu would finish all the Enlightenment Tea.
Everyone went forward and sat around Shen Tian, sipping the tea.
This scene shocked everyone.
The prodigies outside were filled with shock and envy.
Who would have thought that the Prodigy Competition would turn into a tea ceremony?
All of this was because of Shen Yuan.
At the same time, their hearts were filled with jealousy, and their eyes were filled with resentment.
After all, they also wanted to drink the Enlightenment Tea!
...
As if sensing the thoughts of the prodigies outside...
Shen Tian gently waved his sleeve, and many cups of Enlightenment Tea were distributed to the prodigies.
These people were also top-notch prodigies. Although they were not as powerful as Sheng Yangxu and the others, they were still the mainstays of their respective factions.
Anyway, there was enough tea this time. One cup was enough for everyone.
After all, just one cup of this tea would produce an effect. Very few people would be as greedy as Sheng Yangxu.
The prodigies outside were overjoyed after receiving the Enlightenment Tea.
They shouted in gratitude, "Thank you, Brother Shen Yuan!"
At that moment, Shen Tian said solemnly.
His voice was like the sound of the Heavenly Dao, reverberating throughout the world.
He was explaining the Dao Insight Quintessence of the Primeval 108 Heavenly Generals' inheritance to everyone.
In that instant, a mysterious Dao Intent filled the entire Heavenly Gate Peak. It was vast and unfathomable.
Boundless will of the great path transformed into specks of starlight that enveloped these geniuses, causing their hearts to tremble.
Everyone looked relieved as if they had solved a difficult problem that had been dormant for many years.
Also, with the support of the Enlightenment Tea, these prodigies' bodies glowed as they entered a state of enlightenment.
...
Jiang Taiyi was the first to awaken. His body erupted with an extremely powerful aura.
Lightning flashed around him, and he exuded a divine aura that was several times stronger than before.
Jiang Taiyi was overjoyed. He hurriedly cupped his hands and thanked Shen Tian. "Thank you, Brother Shen, for your guidance. I have comprehended!"
His body emitted powerful lightning. It was clear that he had benefited greatly from the enlightenment.
He would be able to break through in no time!
The others also benefited greatly and improved greatly.
As a result, everyone thanked him, and their admiration for Shen Tian intensified.
Yu Xuzi frowned. He had a Connate Constitution, so he had a thorough understanding of all techniques.
When he saw how easily Shen Tian mastered the 108 Dharma Arts, he started to have some suspicions.
Yu Xuzi muttered to himself, "Could it be that he doesn't just have a Connate Constitution?
With such talent, it's very likely that he has a peerless and noble constitution. "
He knew some ancient secrets.
After knowing that he once had a peerless constitution, his reaction was similar to that of Shen Tian!
...
At that moment, the sky changed.
Multicolored light overflowed, and divine light surged, erupting with an extremely vast aura.
Several figures walked out from the void.
Their bodies were enveloped in divine light, and their auras were extremely powerful. They had already reached the Sub-Immortal stage.
These people were the sacred leaders of the various sacred grounds.
Seeing the sacred leaders of the various sacred grounds appear, everyone instantly fell silent.
Everyone stared at the void with solemn expressions.
The Prodigy Competition was not just for the prodigies of the five regions to spar.
It also involved the Evil Spirits from the outer realm.
The various sacred leaders had gathered to discuss the matter of fighting against the Evil Spirit race.
Seeing the various sacred leaders appear, the prodigies all wanted to know what was going on.
...
A figure walked out first and said solemnly, "Fellow prodigies, I am the Great Void Sacred Leader!
"I gathered all of you here today to discuss the matter of fighting against the Evil Spirit race.
"But before we came over, we received some unfortunate news.
"A huge void passageway appeared above the Immortal Mountain, and millions of Evil Spirits charged into the 100,000 mountains.
"Dozens of demons were directly annihilated, and the rest are still bitterly fighting, but they won't be able to hold on for long.
"Now that the Evil Spirit race has launched an all-out attack on Southern Border, the situation is extremely dangerous. They want to completely destroy this region.
"Southern Border's crisis is imminent, and they have already requested reinforcements from the five regions."
Hearing this news, everyone's expression changed drastically.
The Evil Spirits from the outer realm were the greatest danger to the five regions. Both sides had been fighting for 10,000 years, and it was difficult to determine the victor.
Now, the Evil Spirits from the outer realm had actually launched such a huge attack first. It was completely unexpected.
For a moment, everyone's hearts were heavy.
Especially the Bird race prodigies, they were extremely nervous.
Southern Border was their base, and their families were all there.
Now that Southern Border was in danger, how could they not be worried?
Young Kun Peng and Huang Jiutian, who were already hot-tempered, were the first to jump out. "Those vile beings really refuse to give up!
I will go back now and kill them all! "
They leaped up and prepared to lead a group of demon prodigies back to Southern Border.
Sheng Yangxu and the others hurriedly stopped them.
"Calm down, Dao Brother. It's useless even if you go back now."
"That's right! Let's discuss the plan before taking action. "
"This battle cannot be underestimated. We cannot be rash!"
Sheng Yangxu and the others hurriedly persuaded the demon prodigies to calm down.
Since the Evil Spirit race had launched an all-out attack, how could they not be prepared?
This was clearly a calamity targeting Southern Border. It was definitely not that simple.
One had to know that there were many factions in Southern Border. Not only were there demons, but there were also powerful races like the Human-Demon race and the Silver Spirit race.
However, even these large races had sent out a request for reinforcements. One could imagine how terrifying this calamity was.
Although there were many demon prodigies present, in the face of such a large-scale battle, they would not be of much use.
...
At that moment, the Great Void Sacred Leader said solemnly, "That's right. The Evil Spirit race has been planning this operation for a long time.
"There are thousands of Sage cultivators and more than 100 Sub-Immortal cultivators.
"There are even three Perfected Immortals. Their strength is enough to destroy an entire region.
"We must carefully consider sending reinforcements this time."
Given the current foundation of the five regions, there were not many existences that could contend against Perfected Immortals.
Not to mention, there were so many terrifying Evil Spirit experts.
This kind of danger had already touched the lifeline of Southern Border.
"Damn it!"
Young Kun Peng beat his chest helplessly.
He hated himself for being born too late. His strength had not reached its peak yet.
Otherwise, given his bloodline, he was destined to become supreme. Why would he be afraid of these Evil Spirits?
At that moment, Sheng Yangxu had a nervous expression. "Master, what should we do?"
The Great Void Sacred Leader said solemnly, "We don't know if this is a ploy by the Evil Spirit race to lure us away.
"Therefore, the top forces of the various factions cannot be mobilized easily. Otherwise, they will suffer a destructive blow.
"We can only rely on you to overcome this catastrophe."
"You are the important force to save us from this calamity!"
The Great Void Sacred Leader's eyes were burning with confidence.
These prodigies had at least the battle prowess of a Sage, and the peerless prodigies even had the battle prowess of a Sub-Immortal.
These prodigies were already extremely powerful.
They had already grown up. It was time for them to shoulder the heavy responsibility of protecting the five regions!
"Yes!"
All the prodigies shouted. A heavy sense of mission grew in their hearts.
This was a matter of life and death. No one could remain uninvolved.
If they did not send reinforcements, once Southern Border was destroyed, it would be difficult for the other regions to escape.
The Great Void Sacred Leader nodded in satisfaction. "You don't have to worry. The Middle Ground sacred grounds will join forces this time.
"We will arrange for a Sub-Thearch patriarch to escort you there.
"In addition, the patriarchs of the Immortal Phoenix race and the Kun Peng race should be able to block the top battle prowess of the Evil Spirit race.
"But the rest is up to you!"
Due to the special environment of the five regions, many cultivators who had ascended to the Sub-Immortal realm had ascended to the Celestial World.
Therefore, the various factions of the five regions did not have many top experts.
These people were the patriarchs who had forcefully stayed in the five regions to protect their juniors.
However, existences of this level could be counted on one hand, and they could not be mobilized easily.
They also had to be wary of the Evil Spirits' sudden attacks to prevent Middle Ground from falling into danger.
...
The pressure in everyone's hearts lessened when they heard this.
With a Sub-Thearch accompanying them, their chances of winning were higher.
The Great Void Sacred Leader nodded slightly. "This calamity is not a joke. It involves life and death. You can decide for yourselves.
"I will go and invite the Sub-Thearch now. When the patriarch comes out of seclusion, we will immediately set off to reinforce Southern Border."
As the Taixu Sage Master spoke, his figure disappeared from this world.
At that moment, all the prodigies were filled with righteous indignation. "Those Evil Spirit brats are too arrogant!
"Let's go and kill our way over and show them how powerful we are!"
"Count me in!"
"I'll go too!"
All the prodigies echoed. This calamity had already stirred up their blood, and no one was backing down.
Sheng Yangxu suggested. "We naturally need to reinforce Southern Border, but it's not appropriate for us to go over like this.
"We must choose a leader to command this trip!
"Senior Sub-Thearch has to deal with the Perfected Immortal Evil Spirits. He definitely won't have time to care about us."
This was not a small scene. It was a terrifying battle that involved millions of Evil Spirits.
Even though the prodigies present were extraordinary and far surpassed Evil Spirits of the same level, it would be very difficult for them to survive this battle.
On the battlefield, individual strength was very insignificant.
After all, it was difficult for two fists to fight against four hands. If there was no leader to command, it would be very easy to cause casualties.
Everyone nodded slightly. "Brother Sheng is right. We must choose a person that everyone can trust to control the situation.
"Who should I choose for this person?"
They pondered for a long time, and some people wanted to volunteer.
However, when they thought about how they were not strong enough, how could they convince these prodigies!?
This person must have unparalleled battle strength and be able to control the situation.
At that thought, everyone could not help but look at Shen Tian.
Their eyes lit up as if they had seen hope.
After all, Shen Tian had already convinced everyone, be it his battle strength or bearing.
Sheng Yangxu smiled and stepped forward. "Brother Shen, please be the leader and lead us to fight against the Evil Spirits.
"If Brother Shen can lead us, we will definitely be able to win this battle!"
Shen Tian smiled bitterly.
This was not giving him a chance to refuse at all!
He took a deep breath. "Since that's the case, I will not refuse!"
After all, this concerned the survival of the five regions. Shen Tian also did not want to see Southern Border destroyed.
He was righteous, so he had to bear this responsibility!
Afterward, Shen Tian's tone changed, and he said solemnly, "However, since I am leading the team, I must listen to orders."
On the battlefield, military orders were absolute.
If there was a disagreement, it was very likely that the entire team would be wiped out.
Shen Tian had to mention this point.
The prodigies did not doubt him at all. They all shouted, "We will listen to Brother Shen's orders!"
A team of prodigies led by Shen Tian was officially formed!
...
At that moment, tens of thousands of divine lights shone.
A terrifying aura swept out and spread throughout heaven and earth.
A white-haired, white-bearded elder in purple strolled over, becoming one with heaven and earth.
Sheng Yangxu was pleasantly surprised. "Patriarch!"
This person was the Great Void Sacred Ground's patriarch, the Void Sub-Thearch.
He was a 24 Tribulation Sub-Thearch and was extremely powerful.
With the Void Sub-Thearch around, their chances of winning were higher.
The Void Sub-Thearch looked around and then looked to the south. He said solemnly, "Everyone, we will rush to Southern Border's aid!"
The void around his body surged, and an incomparably vast void power burst forth.
In that instant, the world changed drastically.
The void laws lingered, forming a dense light hole.
Not long after, an extremely powerful void passageway appeared in front of everyone.
This was an inter-realm passageway that the Void Sub-Thearch had constructed using a supreme void technique. It led directly to Southern Border.
With the help of the void passageway, they could save a lot of time and rush to the battlefield as soon as possible.
Upon seeing this scene, everyone's eyes burned with fighting spirit!
...
Brothers of Southern Border, hold on.
Reinforcements will arrive soon!
