Chapter 45 The Strongest Immortal of Our Time
However, after the initial shock, Lianxing quickly regained her senses, flashed to Yaoyue's side, faced Lingtian, bowed deeply, and spoke with utmost respect:
"Many thanks to Immortal Lingtian for bestowing upon me immortal techniques; I will never forget this kindness and virtue!"
"My sister and I will forever remember the immortal's kindness!"
"If the immortals ever need our assistance in the future, please just ask, and we will do our utmost!"
"Although the Yihua Palace is nothing more than an ant in the eyes of immortals, it still has some influence in the border area of the three great dynasties of Ming, Song and Han, and is willing to be used by immortals."
Another one!
First, Yaoyue bowed her head in apology, and now Lianxing is sincerely thanking her.
The two of them bowed very respectfully to Ling Tian, leaving Prince Qingluan, Old Huang, Guo Furong and the others completely dumbfounded.
Even when told that Ling Tian was an immortal, they still found it absurd and unbelievable, as if they were hearing a myth.
All of this is so bizarre that it's unbelievable.
However, the way Yaoyue and Lianxing pointed the finger at each other eventually stirred up waves in everyone's hearts.
It should be noted that these two are not unknown figures in the martial arts world, but rather top-tier experts who consistently rank fourteenth and sixteenth on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking!
Lu Xiucai's fingers trembled, lifting and lowering repeatedly, clearly unable to calm the intense shock in his heart.
He suddenly remembered—
When Ling Tian mentioned that Xiao Sanxiao possessed the cultivation level of "the ultimate human being," he jokingly said that Ling Tian was probably one of the three immortals yet to be born.
But right now...
Yaoyue and Lianxing actually knelt down and worshipped him, calling him a "celestial being"?
Could it be... that his joke actually came true?
Is Ling Tian really that immortal who ranks among the top three on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking?
Lu Xiucai shook his head violently, quickly banishing this absurd thought from his mind.
Impossible! There must be a mistake!
What are immortals? They are supreme beings who transcend the mortal realm and surpass all living beings!
For a mere scholar like him, aside from Guo Juxia, being able to meet a grandmaster was already an immense stroke of luck.
As for immortals?
What merit or ability does Lu Xiucai possess to be able to sit and drink with immortals, chatting and laughing together?
Would a celestial being even notice him?
Just as Lü Xiucai was in a state of confusion, Ling Tian, sitting upright in his chair, remained unmoved despite the repeated apologies and thanks from the two men.
He didn't even stop holding the cup with his right hand. He tilted his head back and drank the wine in one gulp before slowly raising his eyes to look at the two of them.
This posture made Xu Nian, Lü Xiucai, Guo Furong and others feel tense.
They almost thought that Ling Tian would be torn to pieces by Yao Yue Lian Xing in the next instant, and that they would be consumed by rage, leaving no trace of their bodies.
however--
No matter how calm and collected Ling Tian was, and how freely he looked them over, Yao Yue and Lian Xing showed no sign of anger.
On the contrary, when Ling Tian's gaze fell on them, their apologies and kowtows became even more respectful, their posture almost pious.
If we say—
Previously, they still had some doubts about Ling Tian's identity.
At this moment, Ling Tian's fearless, indifferent, and seemingly all-encompassing demeanor completely shattered their last hesitation.
If not a true immortal...
How could they remain so calm in the face of such powerful figures who are ranked at the top of the Heavenly Ranking and have ruthless personalities?
Ordinary experts would probably be terrified and their souls would have flown away!
Upon realizing this, the two felt even greater awe.
After a long while, Ling Tian finally grinned, a slight smile playing on his lips. He waved his hand casually, his tone nonchalant:
"Oh dear."
"I didn't pay any attention to that little flame."
"To be able to transform the Mingyu Skill into the power of raging fire in such a short time, you must have some talent."
"And you, that 'Blazing Fire Technique' was your destined opportunity. Now that the time has come, it's just a low-level attack technique. I'll just leave it in my room to prop up a table leg."
boom--!
If we say...
The scene of Yaoyue Lianxing bowing her head and admitting her mistake to Ling Tian earlier was like a thunderclap in the deep sea, stirring up a huge wave in the minds of Xu Nian, Lü Xiucai and others...
At this moment, every word Ling Tian uttered was like a nuclear bomb, exploding deep within everyone's hearts—including Yao Yue and Lian Xing, who had already confirmed his identity!
"Really... I was right?"
Lu Xiucai stood frozen in place, his eyes vacant, muttering to himself.
"Brother Ling Tian... is he really one of the top three immortals on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking?"
Guo Furong opened her beautiful eyes wide, her face filled with shock, words failing her.
"Is it true? He really is an immortal? I, Bai Zhantang... have actually been on friendly terms with an immortal all this time?"
As Xu Nian got up from the ground, he felt that his understanding of the past few decades was collapsing inch by inch.
At the same time, a chill rose from the bottom of my heart.
Fairy!
That's a true immortal!
He's just a beginner martial artist, yet he dares to speak arrogantly and act rudely towards the immortal... Will he be crushed into dust by Ling Tian's finger in the next second?
"An immortal?"
"Young Brother Ling Tian... no, no, I should call you Immortal Ling Tian! So you are actually an immortal!"
"I always found it strange that when faced with information about those astonishingly powerful figures on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking, the Great Immortal Lingtian remained completely calm and unmoved—it turns out he himself is above the rankings, one of the most unfathomable beings in this world!"
"Such a realm is simply chilling... I actually sat in the same room as a true immortal, drinking and chatting happily in an inn?"
"I always thought that those legendary figures on the Heavenly Ranking were far removed from my life. But who would have thought that Palace Master Yaoyue and Palace Master Lianxing would appear right before my eyes?"
"I thought I would be incredibly fortunate to witness such a miraculous encounter even once in my life... but who would have thought—"
"Is there a celestial being hiding beside me?"
"Someone! Pinch me! Let me make sure this isn't a dream!"
"Great Immortal Lingtian, please accept my bow!"
"Looking back on my past words and actions, I hope I have never offended the Immortal Venerable..."
Not only were Guo Furong and the others dumbfounded, but all the martial arts heroes who had not yet left were also speechless, as if they were in a dream and could hardly believe what they were seeing!
Tell me, who could speak and laugh so freely and without fear in front of the two palace mistresses, Yaoyue and Lianxing? This is something no ordinary person could do!
Moreover, although Ling Tian never admitted it himself, he never denied his identity as an immortal.
Such tacit approval is tantamount to a public declaration—
He, Ling Tian, is none other than the seemingly ordinary and unknown Ling Tian Da Xian, who lives in seclusion in the mortal world!
At this moment, Yaoyue and Lianxing, who were standing in front of Lingtian, were still greatly shocked, even though they already knew his true origin.
There is only one reason—
Ling Tian casually remarked that the "Blazing Fire Technique," which they regarded as a priceless treasure capable of overturning heaven and earth, was nothing more than "something used to prop up table legs at home."
How could anyone take that seriously?
Even though they had already guessed that this person's casual act of bestowing merit must be extraordinary, and he was probably a powerful figure even in the immortal realm.
But to everyone's surprise—
In their eyes, the cultivation methods were like celestial scriptures, transcending the mundane and capable of stirring up bloodshed and chaos throughout the world.
In Ling Tian's mouth, it was just the lowest level of introductory attack technique, not even worthy of cultivation, only good for pressing down the wobbly table leg?
Thinking of this, Yaoyue and Lianxing's eyes suddenly lit up, and flames roared up in their hearts!
Make friends!
We must do everything in our power to befriend this Celestial Immortal!
With such unfathomable cultivation, he has probably reached the pinnacle of the Nine Provinces—most likely, he is the number one on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking, the strongest immortal in this world!
Just as she was about to open her mouth and bow to show goodwill, she invited Yue to speak.
Suddenly, thunder rumbled from the heavens, splitting the sky and shattering the air, abruptly cutting off her words.
Immediately afterwards, a golden light pierced through the clouds, more dazzling and brilliant than any previous update of the Heavenly Ranking!
Amidst the golden light, the image slowly coalesced, and a line of large characters appeared in the void—
[Third on the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking: Long Yang, Crown Prince of Jiang Kingdom!]
In an instant, the entire land of China looked up in awe.
Countless eyes were fixed on the golden words in the sky, their hearts pounding with excitement, anticipation and awe reaching their peak!
"Prince Longyang of the Jiang Kingdom?"
"The Jiang Kingdom? When did such a kingdom ever exist within the vast territory of Kyushu?"
"The name Longyang was completely unheard of and entirely unfamiliar to me."
"Is this the first true immortal that Kyushu is about to reveal?"
It's not surprising that you haven't heard of it.
"Those who are at the Grandmaster level or above are always elusive and difficult to find."
"Senior Xiao Sanxiao lived for over four thousand years. Before the Heavenly Ranking appeared, who would have known that such a master existed in the world?"
"Exactly! If this person can be ranked above him, wouldn't that mean that Immortal Longyang's existence has lasted for far longer than Senior Xiao Sanxiao's?"
"Hiss... Xiao Sanxiao has lived for over four thousand years. Could this Longyang live even longer?"
"I remember that the earliest recorded history of mankind is only 4,800 years old."
"Immortals, perhaps, do not belong to the category of humans."
"How is that possible? The list clearly states that he is the 'Crown Prince of Jiang Kingdom,' which means he is of royal lineage!"
"Since he can be called an immortal, and his three laughs already represent the limit of a celestial being, this person must have transcended the celestial realm and entered the path of immortality!"
"Does our generation truly have the chance to glimpse the life and deeds of immortals?"
"Things I never dared to dream of before have actually come true today!"
This moment.
Throughout the land, mountains and rivers stand silent.
Hundreds of millions of people held their breath, their eyes glued to the list in the sky, afraid of missing even the slightest detail!
Immortals—
That existence that once circulated in ancient books, flickered in legends, and remained unclear in debates...
Now, it is finally time to unveil its true nature and present it to all living beings!
All the people of the Nine Provinces are filled with curiosity and longing for everything about immortals!
The Qin Dynasty, the Yin-Yang School.
Ying Zheng's lips curled slightly as he gazed at the golden characters that had appeared in the heavens above, his eyes gleaming with inquiry, and slowly spoke:
"My dear minister is a descendant of the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and has always known many secrets."
"You could recognize Emperor Xuanyuan's battle flag before, but today—have you heard of this 'Jiang Kingdom'? And do you know of that 'Immortal Longyang'?"
Donghuang Taiyi was still somewhat dazed. When he heard Ying Zheng ask a question, he raised his eyes and looked at the Nine Provinces Heavenly Ranking. His gaze lingered there for a long time before his mind gradually calmed down.
After a moment of deep thought, he finally shook his head slightly.
"Your Majesty, this Jiang Kingdom... I know nothing about it."
Ying Zheng raised an eyebrow slightly, a hint of surprise in his expression:
"Even you didn't know?"
"Could this country have existed before the time of the Yellow Emperor?"
Donghuang Taiyi shook his head in rejection:
"Your Majesty, the land of Kyushu is vast and boundless, the river of time flows ceaselessly, and dynasties rise and fall like tides. Even with the vast collection of records in the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is difficult to record all the past events."
