As the words Luan Gu fell, endless fighting spirit and powerful Battle Intent swept through the entire space!
That fighting spirit made the heavens tremble!
That Battle Intent made the universe shake!
It was a roar of unwillingness in the face of destiny!
Hammered and tempered a thousand times, burned by raging fire, a thousand defeats could not extinguish his will!
At this moment, this legendary figure appeared before Jun Xiaoyao!
Although it was just a Brand, the oppressive aura was enough to make any contemporary Prodigy bow their head!
Jun Xiaoyao also felt an extreme sense of oppression, as if facing an invincible God of War!
"Indeed, it's as I guessed, Luan Gu the Great Emperor's ultimate opponent was himself," Jun Xiaoyao's eyes were deep.
He wasn't too surprised.
After all, how did that saying go?
The greatest opponent in one's life is actually oneself.
It's easy to defeat others, but very difficult to defeat oneself.
Luan Gu the Great Emperor, at first, also experienced countless setbacks and struggles, and his Dao Heart even collapsed.
Finally, he defeated himself, gave birth to a Demonic Fetus, underwent Rebirth, and personally rewrote his own destiny.
Jun Xiaoyao admired such a person.
"It seems this final trial is to defeat Senior," Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile.
The person in front of him was indeed Luan Gu the Great Emperor, yet not Luan Gu the Great Emperor.
Strictly speaking, it was the Heart Demon that arose when Luan Gu the Great Emperor underwent Rebirth and transformed into a Demonic Fetus.
It could also be said to be another side of Luan Gu the Great Emperor.
Luan Gu the Great Emperor defeated this self Heart Demon and finally achieved Nirvana successfully.
And Jun Xiaoyao also had to defeat him to obtain Luan Gu's Opportunity.
"You… leave."
The Luan Gu Xinmo Brand still had his back to Jun Xiaoyao, his tone indifferent.
He was just a wisp of Luan Gu the Great Emperor's Heart Demon Brand, so his strength naturally couldn't compare to the true Luan Gu the Great Emperor.
However, even so, this Brand, looking at the contemporary young Prodigy, was almost unbeatable.
A wisp of Luan Gu Xinmo's Brand was enough to sweep through all contemporary young Forbidden Talents.
"Why?"
Jun Xiaoyao responded as if he had expected it.
"Your Dao does not conform to mine; you are not my Legacy," Luan Gu Xinmo said.
Jun Xiaoyao chuckled, not surprised.
He had anticipated it before, perhaps Luan Gu the Great Emperor was unwilling for someone like him to obtain the Legacy.
Because Jun Xiaoyao and Luan Gu the Great Emperor's destiny trajectories were too different, like two extremes.
One was born in the wilderness, one was born in an Ancient Desolate Family.
One suffered a thousand defeats in his early life, one swept through the world since birth.
It could be said that Jun Xiaoyao was the least fitting for the standard of Luan Gu's Legacy.
Even that Wang Teng was only able to obtain a portion of Luan Gu's Legacy due to his profound Luck.
"What is Senior's Dao?" Jun Xiaoyao asked calmly.
"My destiny is Heaven-Defying!" Luan Gu Xinmo said.
These simple four words were the footnote to Luan Gu's entire life!
"Junior respects Senior's Dao, but…" Jun Xiaoyao paused, then suddenly changed his tone.
"Heaven-Defying is no longer new."
As soon as these words came out, a terrifying pressure poured out, pressing down on Jun Xiaoyao.
Jun Xiaoyao remained calm, standing with his hands behind his back, even when facing Luan Gu the Great Emperor's Heart Demon, his expression remained as calm as water.
If it were any other Prodigy, even a Forbidden Talents, they would definitely have been pressed down by now.
"Youngster, I'll give you one chance to regret it," Luan Gu Xinmo's tone was like a cold abyss of ten thousand years.
Everyone's Dao is inviolable, let alone an Great Emperor.
Jun Xiaoyao's words already carried some offensive meaning.
"Junior has his own understanding of the words Heaven-Defying," Jun Xiaoyao said with a faint smile, hands behind his back.
If it were any other Prodigy, they would be trembling and treading on thin ice before Luan Gu Xinmo at this moment.
Let alone offending him, they wouldn't even dare to say an extra word.
But Jun Xiaoyao dared!
Although he admired Luan Gu, it didn't mean he had to face Luan Gu in a humble posture.
"Oh?"
Luan Gu Xinmo still had his back to Jun Xiaoyao, but there was a hint of curiosity in his words.
This youngster was somewhat different.
Jun Xiaoyao continued: "The premise of so-called Heaven-Defying is to place oneself beneath the heavens."
"Being weaker than the heavens, suppressed by the heavens, is why one chooses a Heaven-Defying path, but…"
Jun Xiaoyao's words suddenly paused here.
Then, Jun Xiaoyao reached out and pointed to the sky!
"Born to be the foremost among men, only I am as long-lived as the heavens!"
"Since we are equal, why should the heavens dare to be above me?"
Jun Xiaoyao's words were deafening!
He himself was on par with the heavens, so how dared the heavens be above him!
A simple sentence, swallowing mountains and rivers for ten thousand miles!
His arrogant ambition made Luan Gu Xinmo's expression change, and he turned around, his gaze like a sword, looking directly at Jun Xiaoyao.
This youngster actually dared to compare himself to the heavens!
"Youngster, aren't your words too arrogant? Is this your Dao?" Luan Gu Xinmo said with deep eyes.
"Haha, arrogant? I don't think so. When I achieve Immortal Ascension, I will change these heavens, alter this earth, reshape these mountains and rivers for billions of miles, and establish my order!"
Jun Xiaoyao's words astonished Luan Gu Xinmo even more.
One must know that words cannot be spoken carelessly.
Many things have Karma in the unseen.
Once one offends the unseen existences, one might suffer unimaginable misfortune!
And before him, this arrogant youngster in white dared to utter such arrogant and rebellious words, which was enough to prove that he had his own confidence!
"Youngster, your name." Luan Gu Xinmo's expression was much more serious than before.
He even placed Jun Xiaoyao on an equal footing.
Jun Xiaoyao waved his sleeve and said.
"Jun Family, Xiaoyao!"
"Jun Family, that Jun Family, no wonder…" Luan Gu Xinmo suddenly understood.
That Family always produced some Heaven-Defying Prodigy.
Even when Luan Gu the Great Emperor was at his Peak, sweeping across the Immortal Realm unrivaled.
He had never provoked the Jun Family.
The Jun Family's status was not something an Great Emperor could shake.
Even if an Great Emperor dared to provoke the Jun Family, they would suffer an unimaginable killing tribulation.
"That Family produces many Prodigy, but I didn't expect such an anomaly in later generations…"
Luan Gu Xinmo also vaguely felt that this young man in white before him was probably the greatest anomaly of this Great Competition Era!
If so, he was indeed qualified to receive his Legacy.
After all, Luan Gu's entire life was spent fighting against the heavens, against people, and against destiny.
If his inheritor was an anomaly of all ages, then it could be considered as inheriting his unyielding will to fight against the heavens and the earth.
"If you want to obtain the Opportunity, then defeat me," Luan Gu Xinmo said with his hands behind his back.
He certainly couldn't allow Jun Xiaoyao to obtain the Legacy as easily as the Ghost-Masked Woman on the 999th floor.
He also wanted to know how much real ability this anomaly of the Jun family possessed.
"Oh, is Senior sure he wants to fight?" Jun Xiaoyao raised his eyebrows slightly.
"What, are you scared?" Luan Gu Xinmo said.
"Not at all, I'm just afraid Senior will recall some memories he doesn't want to recall," Jun Xiaoyao smiled.
"Memories I don't want to recall?" Luan Gu Xinmo's eyes were deep.
"Yes, for example… experiencing defeat again!"
