Chapter 446: Obscure and Unknown

“Who is this person?”

“He looks young, yet possesses Reincarnation Realm Third Layer strength. Could he be a child of some Noble Family?”

In the tavern, everyone’s gaze was fixed on Ji Chen, whispering to each other, speculating about his identity.

But obviously, except for Yao Qian, no one else present knew Ji Chen’s background.

“Although I don’t know who he is, with Reincarnation Realm Third Layer Cultivation, facing Bai Shengrong, he’s unlikely to gain any advantage. Furthermore, this is Yanxian City, opposing the Young Master of the Bai Family is unwise,” someone couldn’t help but say.

“Buzz!”

At that moment, a wave of energy surged, and everyone could see Bai Shengrong making his move.

He strode forward, formed a seal technique with his hand, and pointed it directly at Ji Chen.

Suddenly, divine light shot out, sharp and startling, transforming into nine strands of Sword Aura during its movement, enveloped in the terrifying Power of the Dao, attacking Ji Chen from nine different directions.

“Be careful, Young Master!”

Yao Qian exclaimed, instinctively warning.

Though she was surprised by Ji Chen’s Reincarnation Realm Third Layer Cultivation, his opponent now was Bai Shengrong, the Second Young Master of the Bai Family, a Reincarnation Realm Fourth Layer expert.

Aside from being a Young Master of the Noble Family, Bai Shengrong possessed extraordinary skills and cards to play, which far surpassed someone like Ji Chen who had just arrived from the Lower Realm.

“Crack!”

Unexpectedly, facing Bai Shengrong’s approaching attack, Ji Chen showed no intention of retreating.

His Spiritual Sea trembled, and then he pointed his fingers in the air.

The next moment, everyone saw an invisible force erupt from Ji Chen’s fingertips, destroying the nine incoming Sword Aura strands before him.

“This is…”

“Great Dao Sword Intent!”

Someone in the tavern exclaimed, some with swords hanging at their waists noticed their Treasure Swords trembling automatically; if they hadn’t quickly suppressed them, the swords would have unsheathed and struck Bai Shengrong.

“Who is this person? He has actually comprehended the Great Dao Sword Intent?”

Even the older generation was moved.

Obviously, even in the Immortal Realm, powers like the Great Dao Sword Intent are exceedingly rare, and few can comprehend them.

“Within Yanzhou, among the younger generation, those who have understood the Great Dao Sword Intent are just a few, countable on one hand, and this boy clearly isn’t one of them. Who exactly is he? What is his background?”

No wonder everyone was surprised; among the younger generation, those who had grasped the Great Dao Sword Intent all had notable backgrounds, either from ancient families that have continued for countless millennia or disciples of Ancient Immortal Sects like the Turquoise Pool.

But now, an unknown young man in white has also mastered such a power.

This means his comprehension of the Sword Dao already surpasses countless peers.

Such a person, normally wouldn’t remain unknown.

The most astonished person was surely Yao Qian.

She was the only one who knew Ji Chen came from the Lower Realm, and that, besides having Reincarnation Realm Third Layer Cultivation, he was also a Saint Tier Third Grade Alchemist.

Pill and Martial Arts Dual Expert!

That’s not all; now, Ji Chen showed the Great Dao Sword Intent, a mastery only a few can hold, which means his achievements in the Sword Dao are significant too.

How could Yao Qian not be amazed?

She simply couldn’t imagine what terrifying potential and talent a person from the Lower Realm Plane must have to bear so many halos at once.

Previously, she thought that in the hundreds of years in Yanzhou, having Wang Xiyuan emerge was astonishing enough.

But now, what Yao Qian saw in Ji Chen was an even more formidable potential compared to Wang Xiyuan.

With such a figure, how could he not become well-known in Yanzhou in the future?

Even given enough time, within the entire Immortal Realm, Ji Chen would surely have significant standing!

“Indeed, not simple!”

Bai Shengrong squinted, a battle spirit surging in his eyes, his gaze fixed on Ji Chen, “Boy, state your name.”

“My name is Ji Chen, what difference does it make telling you?” Ji Chen calmly replied.

“Ji Chen?”

“Never heard of this name.”

“Very unfamiliar, and it seems there’s no mention of any powerful Ji surname families in Yanzhou?”

“Could he be a genius from other regional domains?” someone speculated.

“Good, I’ve remembered your name. This will be your honor, because among my peers, few are worthy of my attention.”

Bai Shengrong stood proud, looking at Ji Chen, his face filled with extreme confidence.

Although Ji Chen’s Great Dao Sword Intent took him by surprise, ultimately, the Reincarnation Realm Third Layer Cultivation posed no threat to him.

“Swish!”

As he finished speaking, Bai Shengrong leaped, darting out of the tavern, into the air.

Standing in the air, his voice spread downwards, “The tavern is too small to display anything. Ji Chen, if you have the courage, come out and battle with me.”

“Young Master, perhaps it’s better not…”

Yao Qian frowned, trying to stop him.

As a native of the Immortal Realm, she knew better than anyone that being an adversary of a Young Master of a Noble Family like Bai Shengrong was nothing good.

Especially here in Yanxian City, where the Bai Family has established for years. If a conflict with Bai Shengrong arose, Ji Chen would undoubtedly suffer.

“It’s fine.”

Ji Chen laughed, “Playing along, what harm?”

Just as his Cultivation had just advanced to the Reincarnation Realm Third Layer, he wanted to see how much he had improved.

Without using the Immortal Format, could he face a Reincarnation Realm Fourth Layer expert head-on?

“Swish!”

As he spoke, Ji Chen stepped forward, then disappeared from his spot, reappearing outside the tavern, high in the air, standing opposite Bai Shengrong, about a hundred meters away.

“What’s happening?”

“Isn’t that Bai Shengrong? Second Young Master of the Bai Family, who dares to provoke him?”

The incident happening in mid-air quickly attracted the attention of many cultivators in the city, people gathered to watch.

“This person claims to be Ji Chen, although unknown, has comprehended the Great Dao Sword Intent and has Reincarnation Realm Third Layer strength.”

Those who had witnessed Ji Chen and Bai Shengrong’s exchange in the tavern earlier had also arrived on the street outside, providing answers to those wondering.

“Oh? Comprehended the Great Dao Sword Intent?”

Everyone was surprised upon hearing this, “Is it Ji Chen… such an unfamiliar name, hasn’t been heard of among Yanzhou’s younger generation.”
