The Prodigies War

Chapter 1188 So Damn Strange

Ten days later.

Lin Xun stood in front of the stone hut, staring at the only bud hanging on the branch of the Star Catcher Tree.

It was halfway through the blooming phase and emitted majestic light like a river of stars. A refreshing and pleasant scent filled the air.

Lin Xun noted the several distinctly visible dao runes on the petals and, peering through the light that surrounded the stamens, he vaguely made out a small figure sitting cross-legged as if meditating and the faint hum of chanting lingered in the air.

This was the first time that Lin Xun saw a divine herb ever since he started cultivating but he already knew it was extraordinary. It possessed divinity like it was able to communicate with the spirit.

Lin Xun couldn’t help but chuckle when the clanging from the mine in the distance interrupted the peaceful atmosphere.

Since Wen Aohai’s death, it was obvious that Meng Yinghua and the others had completely admitted their defeat and intended to submit to him so they worked extra hard in the mines.

So far, they had gathered nearly twenty kilograms of Ruyi Divine Gold for Lin Xun.

The amount was enough to ignite covetous desire even in a Saint.

After all, Ruyi Divine Gold was not only a rare divine material for forging king-grade weapons, but also auxiliary material for forging Saint treasures. It had astonishing value.

Without thinking much, Lin Xun returned to the stone hut.

In the past ten days, he had cultivated the Water Dao to the level of Dao Law, and now he was close to making a breakthrough with the Fire Dao.

Lin Xun had been focused on raising the power of the two grand daos for a long time, and with the assistance of the power of the Mind of Cultivator, a breakthrough was only to be expected.

As for the True Dragon Grand Dao and the Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer, their progress was much slower in comparison. The two grand daos were both powerful and mysterious and thus were more difficult to grasp and comprehend than ordinary grand dao powers.

However, Lin Xun was in no hurry. The understanding of the secrets of the great dao was known to require time, patient work and painstaking effort. It was useless to rush the process.

……

In a remote mountainous forest far away from Star Catcher Mountain, a group of figures quietly appeared.

“Senior Brother Li, that is the Star Catcher Mountain, which is known as a little blessed cultivation land in the Mythic Fire Realm. Judging from its aura and atmosphere, I believe an origin aeth vein is hiding underground and there is a high possibility that divine herbs grow naturally here.”

A black-robed youngster’s fiery eyes glittered with greed.

“More than ten days ago, I found out that this mountain is occupied by disciples of the Thousand Beasts Spirit Mountain, and there is only a supreme king who is called Wen Aohai watching over it.

“I believe, given the power of our Yin Fire Sect, if we all make an all-out effort, we can take over this mountain!”

The moment the black-robed youngster said those words, everyone’s eyes flashed and lit up with excitement.

In the outside world, the foundation of the Yin Fire Sect was in no way inferior to the Thousand Beasts Spirit Mountain.

But embarrassingly, they had not set up a base in the Mythic Fire Realm.

The reason for that was very simple: the hundreds of little blessed cultivation lands and the several great blessed cultivation lands in the Mythic Fire Realm had already been occupied by different major forces.

The major forces all had tremendous and terrifying foundations and also supreme kings in charge.

If the successors of the Yin Fire Sect wanted to gain a foothold in the Mythic Fire Realm, they had to solve their residence problem soon. Otherwise, in the next few years, the gap between them and other forces would only grow wider and wider.

“Are you certain?”

A slender and feminine man with fair skin and red phoenix eyes asked in a low and hoarse voice.

Li Shengshui!

He was a supreme king from the Yin Fire Sect. Although he was not an ancient-era eccentric genius, he had long made a name for himself before reaching the king stage.

“Senior Brother Li, don’t worry, there will be no mistakes. I can guarantee it with my life!” promised the black-robed youngster.

“In that case, let’s take action!” Li Shangshui ordered after taking a deep breath. “I will lead the way to deal with Wen Aohai, while you all should handle the other disciples of Thousand Beasts Spirit Mountain. Remember, we must fight with all our strength and end it as soon as possible.”

Everyone agreed with a roar.

The next moment, they charged towards Star Catcher Mountain.

In the Mythic Fire Realm, similar violent conflicts and clashes between different forces of the Ancient Wasteland Domain happen every single day over blessed cultivation land.

Boom!

Li Shangshui sprung into action right away, aiming a battle ax enveloped in silvery light directly at Star Catcher Mountain.

The prohibition array rocked violently.

This silver battle ax radiated a power superior to that of ordinary king-grade treasures.

It was a supreme king weapon that Li Shangshui raised himself!

The disturbance alarmed Meng Yinghua and the others right away and they darted out of the mine with confused looks. Who dares to attack Star Catcher Mountain?

Then it dawned on them that the situation had changed a long time ago. Wen Aohai was dead, and Thousand Beasts Spirit Mountain was leaderless and could rely only on Demon God Lin.

“Wen Aohai, come out and fight if you have guts!” Li Shangshui’s voice was gentle, but it resonated throughout the world.

Rumble—

As he spoke, the silver battle ax repeatedly swung down. The mountain defense array swayed and rumbled like it was about to collapse.

The faces of Meng Yinghua and the others twisted with anger and shock. Those people came to take our turf!

“If you don’t come out soon, don’t blame me for destroying the array, but by then, Star Catcher Mountain will be stained with blood!”

Li Shangshui launched a fierce offensive, wielding the battle ax downwards with frightening power like a divine being.

“Wen Aohai is not here. What’s the matter?” Lin Xun emerged from the stone hut, staring coldly at Li Shangshui from the distance.

He never thought that someone would be after Star Catcher Mountain and launch an attack. As they say, disaster comes like a bolt from the sky.

“He’s not here?” Li Shangshui frowned and then gave a menacing grin. “Even heavens is on my side. Then get out of Star Catcher Mountain and I will spare your life!”

The other disciples of the Yin Fire Sect also lit up. Heaven had blessed them with this opportunity.

Meng Yinghua and the others all turned to look at Lin Xun with helpless and pitiful faces.

Of course, Lin Xun could not ignore the intruders. The mountain had now become his territory. How would he let others touch it?

Moreover, the divine herb on the mountain summit was about to mature. At this important juncture, he would never let anything happen to Star Catcher Mountain.

Buzz!

Li Shangshui blatantly swung the silver battle ax again, planning to strike at the array.

“If you move again, I’m going to slice you!” Lin Xun’s dark eyes turned stone cold.

Those guys are arrogant. They blatantly came to seize someone else’s territory.

“Slice me?” Li Shangshui threw his head back and burst out laughing as if he heard the funniest joke.

The disciples of the Yin Fire Sect also smirked. Before coming, they had inquired about and knew that Wen Aohai was the only supreme king on Star Catcher Mountain.

Wen Aohai was not around but someone still dared to stand up and threaten them. He was pitifully stupid.

However, they did not notice that Meng Yinghua and the others, who were panicking earlier, wore calm expressions with pity and sympathy gleaming in their eyes.

Those idiots still haven’t realized they are talking to the fearsome Demon God Lin. How…pitiful.

The two groups of people secretly pitied each other.

“Come on, try slicing me then?” Li Shangshui mocked, eyes flashing malevolence.

As a supreme king, even his peers would not dare to threaten him like that. It was refreshing to meet someone so fearless.

Boom!

As he spoke, he flicked his wrist and sent the silver battle ax hurtling through the sky like a comet, filled with terrifying king stage power, aiming for the mountain defense array.

However, before it reached halfway, a slender fair hand stretched out and firmly clutched the silver battle ax.

Li Shangshui’s eyes almost popped out with horror.

The ax was a king grade weapon he had been raising for years and contained power that terrified even himself, but someone caught it with ease.

The malevolent smile froze on his face and his hair stood on end.

The scene happened too quickly. When Lin Xun seized the silver battle ax, the Yin Fire Sect experts were still laughing mockingly.

However, the laughing soon ceased altogether and like Li Shangshui, they were all as petrified as if they had seen a ghost. What...what is going on?

The atmosphere suddenly became dead silent and still.

Meanwhile, the pity deepened on the faces of Meng Yinghua and the others. They all gloated about their misfortune. Those idiots didn’t even look at who their opponent was.

Do they think anyone can mock Demon God Lin?

“You…are you a supreme king?” Li Shangshui’s face grew overcast.

“You will know after I slice you up.” Lin Xun smiled faintly, but the smile was devoid of feeling and emotion.

Boom!

He somersaulted into the air and completely unleashed his powers.

A second ago, he was a graceful young man with an outstanding aura, but in the blink of an eye, he seemed to have transformed into an unparalleled demon god with power that trumped everyone else’s.

This isn’t good!

Li Shangshui’s expression dramatically changed. It wasn’t that he had a poor perception, but that he could not discern Lin Xun’s true aura which led to a misjudgment.

Additionally, his fellow junior brother had guaranteed that Wen Aohai was the only supreme king on Star Catcher Mountain, and that made him subconsciously believe that Lin Xun was just an ordinary person.

Who would have thought that this wrong judgment would cause him to face off against a fierce character of the supreme king stage?!

A battle instantly broke out.

It was impossible to avoid it. Although Li Shangshui was a little shocked and frightened, he did not panic in the slightest and lived up to the title of supreme king.

With a roar, yin fire raged all around him and his strength was activated to its peak.

However, in just minutes, he could not bear it any longer and fell into a disadvantaged position. He was left wounded in many parts and dripping with blood.

But what wounded him was the king grade weapon he had raised himself...

A look of shock and anger crossed his face. He couldn’t believe his eyes. When did such a fierce person join the ranks of supreme king?

The Yin Fire Sect disciples were all dumbfounded, staring at the battle in a dazed state, hands trembling. They did not think that Li Shangshui would be suppressed, showing signs of being defeated, just as the battle had begun…

It was so damn strange, almost like a dream!
