I Am Really Not The Son of Providence Chapter 299: The invitation of the mermaid princess (7,000 characters)


Outside the city of bliss.

The purple air filled the sky, Qi Shaoxuan stood proudly.

Across from him is Bi Xuanqing, who has been seriously injured, bleeding at this time.

Bi Xuanqing's servant hurriedly took out the healing medicine, and didn't want money to put it in his mouth.

For the snake clan, the snake gall is already a critical part, and Bi Xuanqing was pierced by the snake gall, and it was clear that the outcome was divided.

The genius Demon Venerable in the dignified Nirvana Realm was actually defeated by the Jin Dan stage human race. I have to say that Bi Xuanqing's face has been lost this time.

Qi Shaoxuan, who corresponds to it, has made the limelight.

Although the Sea-Monster tribe looks at faces, if they are very powerful, they can be respected for their average appearance.

What's more, Qi Shaoxuan's appearance is actually very handsome and heroic. If he doesn't compare with Shen Tian, ​​he is a rare beautiful man in Beihai.

For a time, countless onlookers of the Hai Clan beauty turned red and their hearts trembled.

Qi Shaoxuan used his strength to prove that he is the top arrogant of the Five Domains, sinking invincible!

Well, this title seems a bit weird, it should be invincible in the world!

How does it always feel? It seems to have the same meaning.

Oh, this demon who can't get rid of!

……

Qi Shaoxuan was thinking wildly while driving out the sword qi of the body's ‘blue blood shining pill green’.

He feels that his current state of mind is a bit wrong, too hopeless, how can he set his goal at "Sinking Invincible"!

Although Qi Mou is temporarily lost to Brother Shen, Kunpeng should have aspirations to Lingyun, and only the bird will not go to heaven?

This kind of mentality must be right, and you must never get used to the feeling of being strongly suppressed by Shen Tian!

Otherwise, as Shen Tian said, those who are defeated by him can only be pushed farther and farther by him.

I, Qi Shaoxuan, am a man who wants to catch up and surpass Shen Tian!

The fighting spirit in his heart was boiling, Qi Shaoxuan's face was pale, and he couldn't help but spit out blood.

Puff!

Bi-colored blood spit on a rock, directly corroding it into a large hole.

Obviously, the additional sword energy of Bi Xuanqing's sword is very difficult to deal with. Not only is it difficult to expel like a tarsal maggot, it is also highly toxic.

Even if Qi Shaoxuan has an extraordinary physique, it is estimated that he would have to rest for many days to fully recover from his injuries.

However, Tianjiao on Bi Xuanqing's side obviously did not intend to stop easily, especially after Bi Xuanqing's defeat.

If they leave like this, the faces of those races will be completely lost.

"The Son of the Purple Mansion is really good at defeating Bi Xuanqing!"

"But with this strength, it is far from enough to come to Beihai to show off its strength."

"Don't talk about the deity taking advantage of others, if you can take the deity's ten moves, today's affairs will be revealed."

"If you can't catch it, you should leave the North Sea! We are in the northern waters, and you are not welcome!"

The five big and three thick burly men stepped forward, and the others were crocodile heads and big swords.

The aura exuding from this big man is even more unfathomable than Bi Xuanqing.

If Bi Xuanqing's combat effectiveness is only six thousand, then the combat effectiveness of Alligator Tongtian is at least ten thousand.

The bloodline of the God Crocodile Protoss will not be suppressed by the Black Dragon like the Black Snake Protoss.

In real fight, Qi Shaoxuan's pressure is definitely much greater.

In particular, Qi Shaoxuan is still injured.

The 10 tricks that Crocodile Tongtian made all-out efforts are not so easy to handle, and they will fail miserably at every turn.

Once defeated within ten moves, Crocodile Tongtian can not only completely save face, but also make Qi Shaoxuan and even Heilongdao face sweeping.

This crocodile spirit looked at the five big three rough irons, but he was actually very active and very good at calculating.

He is shooting now, the timing is perfect!

……

"Hehe, ten tricks you want to defeat me? Idiot dreams!"

Qi Shaoxuan took a deep breath, lifted Fang Tianlong Halberd upside down, his face was pale, and he wanted to step forward.

At this moment, a hand stopped in front of Qi Shaoxuan, and Shen Tian's calm voice sounded: "Don't force it."

The white clothes are like snow, and the Shen Tian stands lightly.

He stretched out his right hand slowly and placed it on Qi Shaoxuan's shoulder.

Pain came from the wound, Qi Shaoxuan instinctively wanted to resist, but still held back.

Because he thinks Brother Shen should not harm him, and Shen Tian really wants to harm him, he can't resist.

The six discs of reincarnation slowly rotated, and a group of pure vitality poured into Qi Shaoxuan's body, instantly purifying all snake venom.

At the same time, Qi Shaoxuan felt that the intractable sword energy in his body was instantly subdued.

In just a few breaths, a blue sword aura shot out from Qi Shaoxuan's shoulder.

A hundred meters away, a piece of rock was split in half, and the cut was as smooth as a mirror.

"How could it be possible to force it out so easily!"

The severely injured Bi Xuan Green Snake's pupils suddenly shrank, and he was irritated to spout another mouthful of blood.

Be aware that the Bihai Xuan Snake Clan is the race that is best at assassinating.

In most cases, after the Profound Snake Clan Tianjiao stabs an opponent, he injects sword aura and snake venom into the prey object, and it can cause continuous damage even if it does not hit the key.

When the snake venom and sword aura attack, the mysterious snake clan launches a second attack and can easily harvest the opponent's life.

Even if he is limited to walking in the world on Black Dragon Island, it is impossible to kill Qi Shaoxuan, at least he can be defeated.

If Qi Shaoxuan had not attacked and severely injured Bi Xuanqing, the victory would be unpredictable.

Furthermore, even though Bi Xuanqing was defeated, he also injured Qi Shaoxuan.

Under the double negative weakening of snake venom and sword qi, Qi Shaoxuanzhen may not be able to block the ten tricks of crocodile through the sky.

But what did the goddess son do?

He just put his hand on Qi Shaoxuan's shoulder, and instantly forced Bi Xuanqing's sword energy.

Even the blood on Qi Shaoxuan's shoulders has returned to red, which means that the snake venom in him has been removed.

Bi Xuanqing's most proud method was actually cracked by Shen Tian in an instant!

This is even more difficult for him to accept than Qi Shaoxuan defeated him!

……

"Thanks to Brother Shen."

Qi Shaoxuan took a deep breath, calming down his surprise.

Although he knew that Shen Tian was very capable, he did not expect Shen Tian to be so amazing.

Unexpectedly, even the most difficult poisonous sword qi of the Bihai Profound Snake Clan Tianjiao can be cracked in an instant.

Sure enough, there is still a gap between Qi and Brother Shen!

"Brother Qi has already won one game, and this crocodile is left. Let Shen take care of it!"

Shen Tian looked at Qi Shaoxuan's forehead, patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Otherwise, they wouldn't approve of Shen."

Looking at Shen Tian with a smile on his face, Qi Shaoxuan was slightly taken aback, feeling great confidence.

Frankly speaking, although Qi Shaoxuan is so arrogant, he is also generally aware of his strength and will not be blindly arrogant.

The crocodile's cultivation base, combat power, and momentum are stronger than Bi Xuanqing, even in his heyday, he may not be able to beat the crocodile.

What's more, he has just recovered from a major injury, his mana and vitality have been lost, and he is completely out of state.

Even if you really managed to pass the crocodile through the sky ten tricks, what can you do if you can't win? There is no way to raise your eyebrows.

If it is Brother Shen, there should be a chance to defeat this crocodile spirit!

Thinking of this, Qi Shaoxuan nodded slowly.

"In that case, brother Shen, be careful."

……

"It looks like your kid is stronger than the guy just now?"

"Well, it looks better. Damn, all the pretty little white faces should be hit!"

Crocodile Tongtian looked at Shen Tian, ​​and Crocodile's head shook violently, seeming to think of some unpleasant memories.

"If it were you, ten tricks would not be enough."

"You are so good-looking, you have to take me a hundred tricks, and I will kill you!"

After that, Crocodile Tongtian untied the big sword behind his back, and in an instant, the sword stalked dozens of feet and struck Shen Tian.

The strong and fierce aura, like a giant crocodile in the prehistoric period, pounces on the face, the mountains and rivers are all years old, and the waves are surging!

Qi Shaoxuan's eyes showed a solemn color, frankly saying that the fighting power of Crocodile Tongtian exceeded his expectations.

This crocodile looks like an iron man, and it really fought more fiercely than Bi Xuanqing.

A big sword has the aura of'break the law with strength'.

According to Qi Shaoxuan's view, if he wants to defeat this crocodile spirit, I'm afraid it will take the broken pill to become a baby.

Otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist more defeats and less victory.

Several tens of zhang knives tore through the space, and a hundred zhang crocodile vision appeared in the void, and the terrorist and killing intent was shocking for hundreds of miles.

The sea waves are surging, rolling up a thousand piles of snow.

Shen Tian's body burst into pieces with the water, and instantly turned into countless afterimages.

A pair of golden wings slowly appeared behind him, which was exceptionally brilliant under the impact of water waves.

At the same time, an emerald-colored long whip slowly emerged from his right hand, with red flowers blooming on the whip.

Under the immersion of sea water, Immortal-Eater Vine and Higan Flower seem to be more vibrant.

Did off?

The crocodile uttered a low roar, and the whole body swept across the trembling waves, and suddenly rushed towards Shen Tian.

The big knife in his hand smashed with the surging power, the void on the bottom of the sea collapsed, the river was overwhelmed, and no one dared to approach within a thousand feet.

Fortunately, it's not in the city of bliss. Otherwise, the fine would be bankrupt.

"Slow, your attack is too slow, let Shen disappointed."

The golden phantom flickered continuously in the void, like a bright streamer.

Shen Tian's relaxed talk and laughter came from all directions, making the crocodile scream in the weather and shocking other people.

Quick, too fast!

Shen Tian, ​​the arrogant human race, is horrifying fast.

Obviously, he is only a real person of the golden age, but his speed is even more amazing than Bi Xuanqing.

You must know that Bi Xuanqing is a demon venerable in Nirvana, and also a Bihai Xuanqing clan who is good at speed.

The result is nothing like Shen Tian!

This kind of speed is almost invincible.

"If you have the ability to have a good fight with the deity, what is the ability to hide?"

"Shrink the head tortoise, get out of the deity!"

Alligator Tongtian stared at the twinkling golden light and couldn't help but curse.

At the same time, Mr. Wu: "???"

So angry! Why is the head-shrinking turtle planing your crocodile's ancestral grave?

If it wasn't for this young man who couldn't beat this reptile, he would have to play a set of Overlord Fist and teach this guy to be a man!

……

Shoo!

Just as the crocodile was so angry, a blue whip shadow smashed at him.

"Is this ridiculous attack the only strength?"

Feeling the strength of the blow, Crocodile snorted and directly reached out to grab the Immortal Eater.

However, at this moment, the red flower on the fairy-eater vine slowly turned into white, demon and illusory.

The Crocodile Tongtian was about to grab the left hand of the Immortal Devouring Vine and pass directly through the vine.

In the next second, the white Higan Flower turns bright red again.

And the emerald-colored fairy-eater vine whip was heavily drawn on the long crocodile face.

Slap~!

A clear whip mark appeared on Crocodile Tongtian's face, as if his face was run over by a car, blood and pain.

Slap, really slap!

Alligator Tongtian's eyes were red instantly, and the crocodile's eyes filled with tears!

"Wow, yeah, you bastard, dare to ruin my handsome face!"

The crocodile snarled angrily, and the big knife in his hand slashed towards the Immortal Devouring Vine again, and the blade burst across the void.

The Immortal Devouring Vine did not escape, and was directly hit by the crocodile's crocodile mouth knife, but there was no feeling of hitting the entity.

The red flower slowly turns to white, and it shoots back in a flash.

The golden streamer circulated dozens of feet behind Crocodile Tongtian, and the emerald-colored vines were pulled out again.

Slap~!

The same operation, another whip mark appeared on the face of Crocodile Tongtian.

Two welt marks are horizontal and vertical, and a red "ten" is drawn on the face of Crocodile Tongtian.

The appearance of this hideous and ugly red ‘ten’ character made the crocodile blaze with anger and feel ashamed.

He roared and rushed towards Shen Tian, ​​wanting to fight Shen Tian in close combat.

However, as Shen Tian has always believed in, men must be fast, and fast is the kingly way!

Compared with Shen Tian, ​​Crocodile's speed to reach the sky is really too slow, and Shen Tian was flying a kite to death.

Slap!

Papa~

Papa Papa Papa! ~!

Red "ten".

Red "wood" character.

Red "rice" character.

……

Qi Shaoxuan's face flushed when he saw it, only feeling exuberant and proud.

The Tianjiao of those sea races is full of shame and anger, and can't bear to look at Crocodile Tongtian's shame.

As for Bi Xuanqing, at this time, Qi Shaoxuan no longer felt resentment for hurting herself seriously, and even felt a little gratitude for fear.

Fortunately, fortunately, when Bi Mou challenged Shen Tian just now, Qi Shaoxuan stopped him.

Although he was defeated by the Human Race Tianjiao, at least he was a loss for both.

It's not too shameful to spread it out.

But it would be terrible to be beaten by a kite by a human being like this.

He didn't even touch the sleeves of his clothes, so he was frantically beaten.

His, it hurts to look at it!

Even Bi Xuanqing feels that having a crocodile on his back is not ashamed.

The protagonist of Beihai gossip recently is probably the crocodile through the sky.

"Asshole, you forced me!"

The crocodile's eyes are crimson, and the whole body slowly glows with golden spots.

That is the deified acupuncture point in his body, and it is also the true inner strength of the demon demon in Nirvana.

The so-called Nirvana stage, in fact, is also called the ‘Divine Aperture’ stage.

The monks in this realm are particular about devouring massive amounts of energy and filling the acupuncture points in their bodies.

After deification, every acupoint contains surging life energy.

If there are enough Shenhua Qiao points, not only the broken hands and feet can be connected by the Qiao points.

Even if the head is severed, even the corpse can be recovered easily.

According to legend, there are some peerless Tianjiao who deify endless acupuncture points, almost immortal.

Even if there is only a piece of ground meat and a drop of essence and blood, it can regenerate in the void and be reborn in Nirvana.

Compared with the Jindan Qi refining system, after the physical body is damaged, the ‘successful rebuilding’, the **** and demon refining cultivator reaches the ‘Nirvana stage’, the vitality is stronger.

If the spirit cannot be killed, it is difficult to kill it.

……

Although Crocodile Tongtian is far from being able to rebirth from a drop of blood, it is by no means weak in Nirvana.

Originally, he didn't intend to explode the power of the acupuncture points, because even if he wins then, he won't be able to survive.

After all, the other party is one rank lower than you, and you even blown up your tank to fight with them, which is not justified.

But now, Crocodile Tongtian's face is cracked, basically lost.

As long as I am shameless, you can't call me ashamed!

"The realm of the crocodile god, give me condensate!"

The crocodile roared through the sky, and in an instant the acupuncture points all over his body began to hook up.

The large number of acupoints actually faintly condensed into a ‘divine crocodile picture’, which was reflected in the void.

As the **** crocodile map appeared, the void within a thousand feet of radius was instantly solidified, and it was overwhelming.

"The deity seals the void around the town, I would like to see if you can beat me again..."

Slap~!

Another bloodstain appeared on Alligator Tongtian's forehead.

The crocodile **** field, there is no use for eggs.

"Too much deception, too much deception!"

The crocodile roared to the sky, and the golden figure of the **** crocodile instantly turned into a set of armor to cover him.

Especially the head, it is more completely wrapped in three layers of armor.

Well, it doesn't matter whether it is useful or not, the weal marks are blocked anyway.

His hands also have acupuncture points lit up, as if an ancient **** crocodile opened its blood basin and bit on the immortal vine.

This time the escape of the Immortal Eater Vine failed and failed to escape.

"Hey, I was finally caught by the deity."

The crocodile yelled through the sky, and his arms soared in an instant, pulling the Immortal Devouring Vine firmly.

At the same time, the tail of Crocodile Tongtian skyrocketed hundreds of feet like a whip, and smashed toward Shen Tian.

……

Seeing that the alligator's tail whip was close at hand, Shen Tian smiled.

At the same time, the void burst behind Crocodile Tongtian, and another emerald vine burst out of the sky.

The huge body of Crocodile Tongtian was instantly **** heavily, and was pulled by a strong force and flew towards Shen Tian.

It seems that there is no resistance.

Won?

Just won so easily?

There was one after another exclamation in the school of fish.

Frankly speaking, Shen Tian's performance was so amazing, it shocked them.

This human race is not only beautiful, but also incredibly powerful.

If possible, I really want to inform the family and invite him to walk in the world!

Just when everyone thought that the battle had been settled and the winner was decided, a sudden change suddenly occurred.

A trace of sly appeared in the eyes of Crocodile Tongtian, and he roared to the sky in an instant.

Unprecedented powerful power burst out from his huge body.

The Immortal Devouring Vine that had tightly bound him was broken inch by inch, and was directly broken by the power of the divine orifice.

At the same time, Crocodile Tongtian transformed into a giant golden crocodile with hundreds of feet, and directly rushed towards Shen Tian.

It opened its mouth in the blood basin, seeming to lock a space, completely covering Shen Tian.

It's so close at hand, I can't avoid it!

"Brother Shen Tian, ​​be careful, this is the nirvana of the Crocodile Clan—death spin!"

Ao Wu's reminder has just sounded, Crocodile Tongtian has rushed to Shen Tian's eyes, and a strong fishy smell is coming.

Hundred-zhang golden crocodile, with its mouth open enough to swallow a small house.

More importantly, this seems to be a certain stunt of the crocodile family, freezing the void in an instant.

Most evasion techniques are difficult to achieve before this trick.

Shen Tian did not dodge, the golden light all over his body flickered, and his whole body rose up against the wind.

In an instant, he turned into a giant nearly one hundred feet tall, like a sculpture of gold.

He stretched out his hands and firmly clasped the upper and lower jaws of the golden giant crocodile, abruptly blocking the oncoming crocodile through the sky.

Shen Tian took a few steps back.

In an instant, the surging energy vented.

All the reefs in Baizhang instantly turned into powder, and the water burst broke.

"How dare you hard-wire the deity's'death rotation'? Humans, you simply can't help yourself!"

The golden crocodile sneered again and again, and the body spun violently in an instant, as if it turned into a golden cone.

Shen Tian's body was also pulled and rotated by this unparalleled force, and more surging divine power acted on his arms to tear.

Once Shen Tian couldn't hold on letting go, the huge crocodile teeth would crush it in an instant.

……

Looking at the expression on Crocodile Tongtian's winning ticket, Shen Tian remembered the encyclopedia he had read in his previous life.

As we all know, the crocodile is a very terrifying creature that spins quickly while biting its prey.

Using scientific centrifugal force, this rotation can tear apart the limbs of the prey, causing a terrible tearing and bleeding effect.

Unexpectedly, in this unscientific world of cultivating immortals, the attack method of the Emperor Crocodile Protoss actually turned around and killed you.

As far as Shen Tian knows, this crocodile's nirvana is very powerful.

But the way to crack this trick is also very simple, that is to rotate in the same direction as him.

As long as you spin faster than him, you can complete the counterattack and grab its head.

Shen Tian thinks this method of cracking is quite reasonable.

So in the next second, the golden cone's rotation speed is getting faster and faster.

I can't even see the figure.

The faces of those onlookers of the monster race gradually became serious: Unexpectedly, Crocodile Tongtian's cultivation base is stronger than before.

Compared with half a month ago, the speed of rotation is more than twice as fast!

Sure enough, he is a peerless Tianjiao, and his cultivation is so fast.

Don't crocodile for three days, look at it with admiration!

……

Looking at the rapidly rotating golden divine cone, Ao Wu's immature face showed worry.

He snorted coldly: "Crocodile Tongtian, Brother Shen Tian is the most honorable guest of our Black Dragon clan, you are so cruel, do you want to use killer moves?"

Qi Shaoxuan held the Fang Tianlong Halberd, and at this time all the mana had been mobilized.

If Crocodile Tongtian doesn't stop, even if he tries to tear his face with those Sea Clan Tianjiao, he will separate the two!

Not just their side, even the Krakens onlookers at this time have a lot of unbearable expressions on their faces.

After all, the "Death Spinning" of the Emperor Crocodile Protoss is notorious, and its lethality is too strong.

As long as the opponents hit by this move are either dead or disabled, and bloody, the thief is miserable.

If you are ugly, you will die if you die.

But this Human Race Tianjiao is so handsome, it would be a pity if he was killed by the crocodile Tongtian.

Just when everyone couldn't stand it, the rotation of the golden cone suddenly stopped.

The hundred-foot-long golden crocodile reappeared in front of the crowd and flew out.

It tilted its head and staggered out two steps away.

Wow, vomiting faintly!

……

"What's the situation?"

Ao Wu dullly watched the crocodile slowly returning to its original shape, spitting out into the sky.

Look at that slowly returning to normal human size, the golden light of the whole body converging, still graceful Shen Tian.

For a time, Ao Wu was a little confused.

Didn't Brother Shen Tian turn to death? Why is nothing wrong?

And I’ve never heard of anyone in the Emperor Crocodile Protoss who casts the "Death Revolving" to vomit himself!

Whoever wins and loses in this battle, the more you look at it, the more fascinating!

As for Shen Tian, ​​he silently gave a negative comment on the strategy of the previous life.

After being bitten by a crocodile, Shente Mo can turn its head in the direction of rotation.

It's all nonsense.

The death rotation of Crocodile Tongtian is a nirvana, the speed is astonishing, which is so easy to fight back along the rotation?

Obviously it should be turned against!

Shen Tian slowly walked to Crocodile Tongtian and patted his back: "Brother, are you okay!"

Alligator Tongtian turned around and stared at Shen Tian fiercely: "Don't think you won, the deity hasn't conceded yet!"

Oh~! ! !

Before he finished speaking, his face changed slightly and he turned his head, vomiting faintly.

Shen Tian said helplessly: "I didn't let you admit defeat, Shen is very interested in Brother Tongtian's "Death Spin", can you please show it again?"

Play it again? You are humiliating the deity!

Alligator grinned in the weather, this hateful human race is too arrogant!

Well, since you humiliated the deity so much, the deity... accept your humiliation, vomit~!

Rotation is impossible to rotate again, it is never possible to rotate again!

Turn it further, vomit! The deity will die!

……

Just when the crocodile vomited into the sky, a melodious and pleasant piano sound came from the city of bliss.

Simultaneously with the sound of the piano, there is also a soft and clear song, like a clear spring washing people's hearts and making people feel comfortable.

This song is sung in an unknown old saying, and it seems to contain a mysterious power.

As the singing sounded, many people even felt that the absorption of spiritual power was accelerating.

The negative emotions in my heart are fading fast.

Tian Lai, this song can be called Tian Lai!

When the sound of the piano sounded, everyone looked at the source of the sound~IndoMTL.com~ There is the Tianyin Pavilion, and the sound is transmitted from the highest floor of the Tianyin Pavilion, which is the room where the mermaid princess Yukau .

As the most outstanding princess of the Mermaid Protoss for hundreds of years, Yuzha is very popular.

Even among the arrogances of all races in Beihai, she has no shortage of fanatical pursuers.

I don't know how many pliers demon spend a lot of money, just for Yu Pian to sing a song.

I don't know how many infatuated demon after seeing Yu Pian's side, since then, they have become thinner.

"Sister Pianqi's singing is getting better and better."

Ao Wu blinked his big eyes: "Brother Shen Tian, ​​I think she wants to seduce you."

Shen Tian: "..."

Qi Shaoxuan: "..."

Although Qi thinks what you said makes sense, as Qi's contract partner, can your kid take a stand?

Can't guess, is this mermaid princess trying to seduce Qi? Isn't Qi unworthy?

So angry! Qi may be a fake dragon knight!

……

With the sound of the piano and singing, the tension of the original rattling atmosphere eased slightly.

Everyone didn't want to make a sound at this time, thinking it was an insult to such a beautiful song.

A girl with a graceful figure and fishtail slowly swims out of the Tianyin Pavilion, holding a golden invitation in her hand.

The girl wears a light gauze on her face, and her eyes and her looming face are beautiful enough.

She swam to Shen Tian, ​​gave Qiubo a glance at Shen Tian, ​​and slowly lowered her head.

"His Royal Highness, please invite the son to enter the pavilion with a look."

The singing ended, and the girl's words were clearly heard in everyone's ears.

Suddenly, eyes of envy and hatred were shot at Shen Tian, ​​and the air was filled with sourness.

But Shen Tian's eyes didn't show any unexpected color, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

It really came! Hey, you can...

Cut the leeks!
