Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 3305: Chapter 3304: I Am Myself

"Now, do you still think I’m arrogant, just boasting?"

Lin Dong’s voice was relaxed and cheerful, as if what he just went through was not a life-and-death battle but just a simple game.

Upon hearing this, Ni Chang’s cheeks turned slightly red, like a touch of sunset at the horizon.

She lowered her head, her hands unconsciously twisting the corner of her clothes, then she said bashfully, "Lin Dong, I really underestimated you."

Her voice was very soft, but filled with sincerity.

Recalling her previous doubts and mocking of Lin Dong, she felt her face burning, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.

"But mainly, you are too special, too strong. Who would have thought that someone could, at the early stage of the Fourth Layer of the Heavenly Realm, extinguish a Secondary Ancestor at Mid Stage."

Ni Chang raised her head, her eyes full of admiration as she looked at Lin Dong.

In her view, Lin Dong’s strength had already gone beyond her understanding.

The early stage of the Fourth Layer of the Heavenly Realm is considered quite formidable in the world of martial artists, but compared to a top powerhouse like the Secondary Ancestor Mid Stage, there is undoubtedly a huge gap.

However, Lin Dong created this seemingly impossible miracle.

It wasn’t just her; even the Dragon Venerable initially did not think highly of Lin Dong.

Lin Dong just nodded, he wasn’t really angry, it was just a joke.

"Anyway, thank you. You meant well, even inviting the Venerable to protect me..."

Suddenly, Lin Dong stopped mid-sentence, his gaze became as sharp as a torch, suddenly looking towards the distance behind him.

The look in his eyes seemed to penetrate layers of mist, discerning the deepest secrets hidden within.

Ni Chang was startled by Lin Dong’s sudden action. Following his gaze, she saw only a vast mountain forest without any abnormalities.

While Ni Chang was full of doubt, Lin Dong clasped his hands in respect towards the apparently empty void:

"Dragon Venerable senior, thank you for your kindness in specially coming to protect me."

"Wow!"

Upon hearing this, Ni Chang’s eyes widened, her face filled with shock.

She never expected Lin Dong could actually detect the presence of the esteemed Dragon Venerable hiding in the dark.

It is known that the esteemed Dragon Venerable is at the Subcestor Peak Level!

In the Martial Arts World, peak subcestor experts are already standing at the top of the pyramid, their strength unfathomable, their skills earth-shattering.

And the Dragon Venerable’s concealing technique is particularly exceptional.

Even for peers of the same rank, discovering his whereabouts is as difficult as ascending to the sky.

It is said that the Dragon Venerable once used this concealing art to quietly escape pursuit by ancestor-level powerhouses and became renowned from then on.

But now, Lin Dong so easily detected his presence; how could this not shock Ni Chang?

The Dragon Venerable, who had been hidden in the dark, was also quite surprised upon hearing Lin Dong.

He originally thought his concealment was flawless, even if Lin Dong had a formidable strength, it would be impossible to discover.

Unexpectedly, Lin Dong still saw through it.

His body stiffened slightly, seemingly stunned by Lin Dong’s keen insight.

However, the Dragon Venerable, having seen the great world, quickly regained composure.

He slowly walked out from the void, each step seeming to be taken on the void, exuding an extraordinary aura.

His figure gradually became clear, he was dressed in a black long robe, with a stern face, his eyes deep as the abyss, seemingly hiding endless secrets.

After coming face to face with Lin Dong, the Dragon Venerable stopped, looking Lin Dong up and down, his gaze like examining a monster.

After quite a while, he slowly spoke:

"Lin Dong, you truly are a monster. You actually discovered my presence. When did you notice?"

His voice was deep and powerful, carrying the majesty of a superior.

Lin Dong slightly clasped his hands, a humble smile on his face, and said, "When I was in Dragon Country, I already noticed."

His tone was plain, as if discussing something very ordinary.

"Impressive, impressive." The Dragon Venerable couldn’t help but exclaim.

He thought it was during the previous battle that he accidentally leaked aura, causing Lin Dong to notice.

Who would have thought, Lin Dong had already noticed back in the Dragon Country.

This meant Lin Dong knew of his presence from the beginning.

Such keen perception and powerful strength.

Lin Dong’s ability to achieve this was enough to prove his extraordinariness.

Then, the Dragon Venerable seemed to think of something else, and asked: "I hear you are a Mental Power Monk as well. To have discovered my presence, your mental power must not be weak, is it at the fortieth level?"

In the martial arts world, Mental Power Monks are rare, and those who cultivate mental power to a high level are as rare as a phoenix feather and unicorn horn.

The Dragon Venerable was also full of curiosity about the strength of Lin Dong’s mental power.

Lin Dong replied honestly: "Mental power at the peak of forty-nine levels."

Although his voice was not loud, it was like a thunderclap, exploding in the hearts of the Dragon Venerable and Ni Chang.

"What?" Upon hearing this, even the Dragon Venerable couldn’t help but exclaim.

His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.

Mental power at the peak of forty-nine levels, such strength is terribly shocking.

It is known that even some who specifically cultivate mental power, even if they have reached ancestor-level strength, cannot cultivate their mental power to the peak of forty-nine levels.

The cultivation of mental power is more difficult than the cultivation of martial arts, each level requires enormous effort and a price.

Yet Lin Dong, at such a young age, reached such heights, this is simply a miracle in the martial arts world.

"No wonder you have the figure of a Ten Thousand Years Myth! You truly are the greatest surprise that my Dragon Country’s Martial Arts World has received from the heavens." The Dragon Venerable looked at Lin Dong, his eyes full of admiration and expectation.

He seemed to see the future glory of the Dragon Country Martial Arts World, and Lin Dong was the key figure leading the Dragon Country Martial Arts World to the pinnacle.

However, upon hearing Dragon Venerable’s words, Lin Dong lightly shook his head, his expression firm as he said: "I’m not granted by God, I am just myself."

Although his voice was calm, it revealed an extremely confident and flamboyant air.

The words, though light, though ordinary, disclosed a dominance that dared to contend with heaven!

He was unwilling to attribute his achievements to the gifts of the heavens, believing that every step of his growth was earned through his own efforts.

Upon this statement, the Dragon Venerable paused.

He did not expect such a response from Lin Dong, but soon, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

He nodded heavily, saying: "Good, such a ’I am who I am’! This is the mental state that should be pursued for the extreme realm of martial arts. Even if it’s God, you won’t yield."

In the world of martial arts, many attribute the peak of martial arts to the arrangement of heaven, believing everything is destined.

But Lin Dong was different, he possessed the spirit to challenge fate, to not concede.

This spirit is indispensable in the pursuit of the ultimate realm of martial arts.

The Dragon Venerable looked at Lin Dong with increasing approval, secretly thought: "Perhaps he will truly realize his talent, becoming a genuine Ten Thousand Years Myth!"

"And the realm and secrets above ancestor-level, perhaps he can reach and unravel them!"
