Chapter 149 - A Naturally Gifted Cultivator
“You really are a genius, Mr. Lu!” The Dragon said with an impressed tone.
The Dragon sounded very sincere when he said that. The seven-day-long exchange ended with him being completely taken by Lu Xuan.
In his eyes, the breadth of Lu Xuan’s knowledge was so profound that even someone as powerful as himself was awestruck.
While the seven-day-long conversation was really supposed to be an exchange between the two, it was actually a seven day-long one-sided lecture from Lu Xuan, instead.
Many of the problems that the Dragon faced when he was training had gotten him stuck in quite a rut, but a great number of those problems were solved with Lu Xuan’s guidance over those seven days.
Lu Xuan’s level of cultivation was so high that it was completely stunning to the Dragon. He was vaguely able to sense that Lu Xuan had far surpassed his own position.
It was as if an ancient and powerful monster was hiding behind that young face, concealed in the form of Lu Xuan.
He’d become widely famous for having annihilated two cultivation forces single-handedly, killing two Deity-level fighters while he was at it.
If Qiu Zhen had been said to be a Deity-level fighter who had barely made it, then Song Lingfeng, the Great Ancestor of the Song Clan, had undoubtedly been a true Deity level fighter. Furthermore, he was a veteran at that level.
The footage of that battle had rattled the entire Special Task Force a while ago. Although the footage was taken from afar, which made the fighters looked rather blurry, the powers demonstrated by Lu Xuan had been more than enough to stun all of the agency.
It was precisely for such reasons that Chen Feng understood why their Big Boss was so eager to fight Lu Xuan immediately. If he were to be in the Big Boss’s shoes, he would have probably felt an itch himself and wanted to fight Lu Xuan as well. Worthy opponents were a difficult find, after all.
Everyone kept their voice down as they chatted for fear of interrupting the two at the center of the ground. Watching this battle was quite a rare opportunity for all present.
Lu Xuan eyed the Dragon with his Delusion-breaker Eyes as they stood across from each other. The Dragon could keep no secrets from his gaze. He was even able to see just how much energy was contained within each muscle fiber of the Dragon’s body.
“An exceptionally talented specimen, indeed!”
That was what came to Lu Xuan’s mind right there and then. As someone who had been able to keep the peace in the world of cultivators for so many years back in Lu Xuan’s past life, the Dragon was definitely one of the handful of formidable ones found anywhere in the entire world. The Dragon was definitely a cut above the others.
Diligence alone definitely could not have gotten someone that far.
Such a being absolutely needed to have exceptional talents and put in a lot of hard work at the same time. Unparalleled diligence and exceptional talents had to work hand in hand to make such a man.
The Dragon was indeed such a person. Lu Xuan could even see all that terrifying power underneath the muscles of the Dragon, a power that was several times that of anyone at his level.
That monstrous strength alone would give him the absolute advantage.
It was common for one of less skill to beat a master at a similar level to death through sheer brute force alone.
Cultivators were still people, and anyone hit by attacks of such monstrous force would very probably end up dead.
It was not like every Deity-level being out there was as powerful and monstrous as Lu Xuan, after all.
A person like the Dragon was a naturally gifted cultivator, the kind of man who seemed as if he was born to become a cultivator, and that made him extremely powerful.
