Chapter 126 Prodigy
"Elder, why belittle yourself? Who can predict the future?"
To be favored by Mars means to have a destiny. Perhaps in the future, Mang will soar to the sky and directly attain the Great Luo realm.
"Clan Chief, although our clan leader, Tan possesses the awakened bloodline of the earth, he is exceptionally talented. From the earth's bounty on all things, he has comprehended the essence of creation. Do you think he can inherit your lineage?"
"Clan Chief, our Qianshan clan's successor, Jushan, is born with immense strength and has a profound understanding of the earth's profound principles. What do you think of him? Can he become your successor?"
"Clan Chief, what do you think of our clan leader Yu? She has also awakened the bloodline of the stars..."
One voice after another entered Feng Zichen's ears, incredibly noisy, but he was not annoyed. Instead, a smile appeared on his lips, and he said to everyone with a joyful expression:
"Elders, don't be impatient. There is still plenty of time left. I will look at them one by one and will not miss anyone!"
The emergence of so many geniuses among the human race is already showing signs of prosperity.
Moreover, when the elders recommended clan members, except for a few, most of them did not adhere to the distinction between innate and acquired talents, but judged purely on their natural talents, indicating that they had no prejudice against the acquired talents of the human race.
This was good news. How could Feng Zichen not be delighted!
...
Time flies like an arrow, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred years have passed.
"Which ones should I choose?"
Gazing at the light screen, Feng Zichen rested his chin on his hand, lost in thought.
A hundred years was enough time for him to review all the clansmen recommended by the elders.
To be honest, these clansmen were indeed outstanding, the cream of the crop among their peers, and even in this wave of spirit beasts, their performance was commendable.
However, they lacked a certain aura, that indomitable spirit of "who else but me?" It was as if they lacked spirit and vigor, causing them to lose face in front of Feng Zichen.
The path of cultivation is a fierce competition, a race against time. Without unwavering determination and an indomitable spirit, how could one defeat countless competitors and reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao?
These clansmen might become outstanding figures for a time, dominating the world for a period.
But to become a peerless figure, to dominate an era, and to lead the tide of history, without that grand ambition, they would have no hope.
Therefore, Feng Zichen wasn't entirely satisfied with them and hesitated, unsure whether to continue selecting one from among them to take as a disciple.
Suddenly, Feng Zichen's eyes lit up as he spotted a tall, imposing figure on the light screen, radiating a powerful aura that drew attention.
"Elders, do you know who he is?" Turning to the crowd, Feng Zichen asked excitedly.
"Who?"
Everyone looked up, but saw a jumble of figures on the light screen and couldn't find the person Feng Zichen was referring to.
The image flashed by, moving elsewhere.
"Look, everyone!" Feng Zichen pointed at the light screen, and the scene abruptly changed, focusing on a young man in white.
The young man was young, with a heroic air and handsome features, appearing to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, giving off a special aura.
It seemed that wherever he was, he was the center of attention, outstanding and inexplicably drawing everyone's gaze.
Behind the youth, a divine image with a dragon's head and a human body manifested, exuding a Daoist aura, and a vast sun appeared above its head, illuminating the entire world.
"Hiss!"
"The Dao of the Sun?
"A Primordial Dao Image?"
"This child is no ordinary person!"
"Who is he? I never imagined our human race would have such a prodigy. Why have I never heard of him before?"
Upon seeing the white-robed youth, the elders also showed surprise, clearly not recognizing him.
At this moment, the youth in the scene moved, his hands forming a fist seal, his entire body glowing, surging with an invisible aura. Although he was only at the Innate Realm, he gave off an aura of invincibility.
With a boom, the youth raised his fist and attacked a Spirit Refining Realm spirit beast. A devastating force swept through, and with just one punch, he directly shattered the spirit beast.
"Don't the elders recognize this person either?"
At this moment, Feng Zichen became even more curious about the youth's origins.
"Judging from the youth's pure innate aura, he should undoubtedly be an Innate Human."
"Moreover, the dragon-headed, human-bodied Dao image is the Dharma Image of the Sui Emperor. Judging from this, this person should be a descendant of the Feng clan."
"What, Clan Chief, you can't even recognize someone from your own lineage?"
Gu Yueshi observed the youth for a long time and suddenly said to Feng Zichen.
"Ahem! I've been traveling extensively for many years and am not particularly familiar with the Feng clan. I'm sorry you all found this amusing." Feng Zichen explained with an awkward laugh.
"Since no one recognizes him, why not call him over and ask him?" Feng Xiangshi suggested, seeing that no one recognized the man's origins.
"There's no rush. Let's observe further. We can call him over after this spirit beast wave ends." Feng Zichen waved his hand, stopping Feng Xiangshi from calling him.
Seeing the young man's performance, Feng Zichen wasn't in a hurry to see him. He planned to observe his subsequent actions and see if he could bring him more surprises.
Boom! At this moment, the scene on the light screen changed again, and a terrifying killing intent emanated.
"Who is this person? Such a fierce aura!"
On the light screen, the figure of a young man in black appeared, surrounded by scarlet light, fiercely battling a spirit beast.
His moves were wide and sweeping, carrying a powerful aura and exceptionally fierce. In just a few moves, he tore the spirit beast to shreds.
"Tearing a spirit beast apart?!"
"This person has a fierce nature. Who is he? I've never heard of him before."
"It's really strange. Where did these two human youths come from?"
The elders were puzzled as they glanced at the black-clad youth and then at the white-clad youth. These two suddenly appearing human prodigies left them with many questions.
"Hmm? That's the Seven Killing Star!"
In Feng Zichen's eyes, a dark red star shone brightly above the black-clad youth's head, radiating a dense innate killing aura.
The killing aura on the youth's body came from this star.
"No wonder he has such a powerful killing aura at such a young age. It turns out he has been favored by the Seven Killing Star."
The Seven Killing Star is a star of killing, symbolizing might and courage, and is the manifestation of the way of slaughter in the starry sky. It is also an important star in the Ziwei Star System.
"Stop guessing. These two are no more than a hundred years old, clearly born a century ago. It's normal that we haven't heard of them."
"After all, we've been in the ancestral temple for over a hundred years. At that time, they should not have been born yet, or had just been born."
Seeing the confusion in the elders' eyes, Feng Zichen explained.
"No wonder, we haven't heard of these two before." The elders nodded in sudden understanding.
