The Eastern Region's Greatest Prodigy, the Strongest Expert of the Age
A hint of surprise flashed across Su Yuxuan's eyes; she hadn't expected Jian Lingxu to ask her name.
It should be noted that this person is the reincarnation of Immortal King, and is arrogant and aloof. There are very few people in the world who can catch his eye.
It's quite unusual that he would take the initiative to ask me something at this moment.
Though filled with confusion, she still cupped her hands and replied loudly, "I am Su Yuxuan, greetings to Fellow Swordsman."
"May I ask where Fellow Daoist Su comes from? I don't recall ever seeing you among the prodigies of the Central Region."
Jian Lingxu nodded slightly, his aloofness unchanged, but a hint of inquiry appeared in his eyes.
"I come from the Eastern Region, not the Central Region."
Su Yuxuan smiled slightly, her surprise deepening.
She had already given up on the idea of befriending Jian Lingxu, but she never expected to meet him in this way.
However, she had now realized that her current level was no less than his, having cultivated Dao Seed Martial Dao System and possessing a system by her side.
Their future achievements may not be inferior to the other party's, so why bother to deliberately curry favor?
"I see, no wonder I've never heard of you before."
A hint of surprise flashed across Jian Lingxu's aloof face before he turned his gaze to Chen Jie.
Chen Jie's gaze fell on Jian Lingxu, his eyes filled with intense interest.
A beast-like, keen intuition screamed a warning from the depths of his heart.
This person is extremely dangerous.
Looking across the entire realm, only Bai Qianqian and Ye Qingxue had ever given him such a strong sense of danger;
As for Liu Yi, he was already a freakish monster who defied all reason, making comparison impossible.
He had long since given up the idea of competing with Liu Yi below the True Immortal Realm; otherwise, he would have been simply asking for trouble.
I can only hope that one day I will reach the True Immortal Realm and then I can test my strength against him.
After all, the higher the realm, the more difficult the challenge becomes, and only then will I have the confidence to truly fight him.
He met Jian Lingxu's gaze, his eyes blazing with fighting spirit, and for a moment he even saw a reflection of himself from years ago in the other man.
"My name is Chen Jie, and I greet you, Fellow Swordsman."
I am also from the Eastern Region. I have heard that you claim to be invincible among those of the same realm. Your tone is undeniably arrogant.
I just wonder if your abilities are enough to back up such arrogance?
"I'm currently ranked number one in the Void Return Realm in the Eastern Region. How about we have a spar later?"
Invincible in the same realm?
That's ridiculous!
They probably haven't been toughened up by society.
He once made similar outrageous remarks, and nearly got himself killed in the process.
After enduring a series of brutal beatings, he finally came to terms with reality:
In the era of systems, only Liu Yi can be considered invincible among those in the same realm. Such clamor from others is nothing but arrogance and ignorance.
Even though he currently holds the top spot on the Void Return Realm Combat Power Ranking, he would never dare to claim invincibility among those in the same realm.
Instead, they diligently practiced without ceasing, daring not to slack off, for the slightest relaxation could lead to being overtaken by others.
Upon hearing this, Jian Lingxu's eyes suddenly lit up with interest, and he spoke with a hint of surprise in his tone:
"So Fellow Daoist Chen is also from the Eastern Region, and even the number one genius of the Eastern Region. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Even if you are the number one genius in the Eastern Region, Non-Self.
I am invincible in my realm!
Before Chen Jie could respond, Ding Xin, his face full of disdain, burst into laughter:
"Hahaha, Jian Lingxu, you are truly arrogant beyond measure!"
You boast of being invincible in your field, but have you ever asked me Ding Xin, for an answer?
You've only defeated two trash from your Heavenly Sword Sect, and you've become this arrogant?
Could it be that he drank too much fake alcohol and got drunk and confused?
Jian Lingxu glanced indifferently at Ding Xin, his tone calm and unwavering:
I'm not being arrogant; I'm just stating a fact.
You are no match for me, and I have absolutely no interest in you.
Upon hearing this, Ding Xin laughed in fury, his eyes gleaming with murderous intent. "Fine! Fine! I've never seen such an arrogant person!"
Once the Crimson Blood Marrow Refining Fruit matures, I'll make you pay!
Jian Lingxu's aloof face remained calm; he merely curled his lip and said indifferently:
"If you want to humiliate yourself, I'll grant your wish."
Those around them, hearing their conversation, all wore expressions of disbelief, and immediately began to murmur amongst themselves:
"Although Jian Lingxu has already Void Return Realm, which is rare among the geniuses of the Central Region, it is far too arrogant for him to claim that he is invincible among those of the same realm."
"Exactly! He hasn't even defeated any of the other Void Return Realm geniuses in the Central Region, yet he dares to make such boastful claims. He's really too arrogant."
"Jian Lingxu is incredibly arrogant. I really hope Ding Xin can teach him a lesson and make him realize his own limitations!"
"Sigh, what does his arrogance have to do with me? There are four Void Return Realm experts right here. We probably won't even get a hair on the Crimson Blood Marrow Refining Fruit."
"What utterly bad luck! In previous years when we competed for the Crimson Blood Marrow Refining Fruit, we'd never seen anything like this."
Now that four geniuses at the Void Return Realm have suddenly appeared, we have no chance at all and can only watch helplessly as the divine fruit falls into the hands of others.
"It's not entirely hopeless. What if these four Void Return Realm fight to the death? Wouldn't we be able to fish in troubled waters?"
"That's right! There's still a glimmer of hope. Let's just wait and see."
Upon hearing Jian Lingxu and Ding Xin's conversation, Chen Jie laughed loudly:
"Fellow Swordsman, it seems not everyone believes you are invincible among those of the same realm."
Let's postpone our sparring until you've dealt with this fellow Daoist."
He paused slightly, then added, "There's one more thing I need to correct."
I am not the number one Eastern Region, at most I can only be considered the second Eastern Region. There is someone who is far superior to me.
He is the true number one genius of the Eastern Region, the number one genius of the Azure Billows Realm, and the number one expert of this era.
Upon hearing this, Jian Lingxu frowned slightly.
He had long seen through Chen Jie's confident and arrogant nature, realizing he was the same kind of person as himself.
He found it hard to believe that the other party would say such a thing.
You must know, he is the reincarnation of Immortal King, yet Chen Jie could make him feel such a strong sense of danger, which shows that his strength is by no means much inferior to his own.
Is Fellow Daoist Chen truly telling the truth?
With your strength, how could you not be the number one prodigy in the Eastern Region?
What's more, there's actually someone stronger than you?
Ding Xin scoffed even more, his face full of disdain as he mocked:
Are all the people of the Eastern Region so arrogant and ignorant?
Could it be that the number one genius of the Eastern Region can also be called the number one genius of the Azure Billows Realm, or even the number one expert in the world?
There should be a limit to bragging!
Our Central Region is the core area of the Azure Firmament Continent, a place where experts gather and geniuses abound.
Apart from Jian Lingxu, that arrogant and ignorant fool, no one would dare to speak so presumptuously!
Chen Jie wasn't surprised that no one believed him.
Anyone who heard that would probably think it was bragging.
If he hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he would have found it hard to believe that such a heaven-defying being as Liu Yi existed in the world; his strength far exceeded all reason.
I'm not so bored as to deliberately flatter others.
The power of Liu Yi, the number one genius in the Eastern Region, is far beyond your imagination. I am completely convinced of his abilities.
Besides, this isn't someone who claims to be the number one genius of the Azure Billows Realm, the number one expert of the era.
This Non-Self opinion, but a fact universally acknowledged throughout the Eastern Region.
If you don't believe me, you can always ask Fellow Daoist Su.
Upon hearing this, Su Yuxuan recalled Liu Yi's battles against demon gods at the True Immortal Realm and his resistance against the Blood God's attack. A look of awe appeared on her face, and she solemnly nodded in agreement.
"Everything that Fellow Daoist Chen said is true."
Liu Yi is truly unparalleled, invincible throughout the world, and truly unrivaled in his realm.
