The Prodigies War

Chapter 1256 All Attention

In three days, Underworld Son would lead soldiers of Underworld to kill Lin Xun and turn Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms into a bloodbath!

On the same day, that news spread like a hurricane, setting off an unknown amount of uproar and commotion.

After so many days, did Underworld Son finally decide to attack?

“Let’s go and watch. Underworld Son possesses the strength of the fourth longevity tribulation. Although he has never tried, he should easily make it onto the top thirty of the Genius Gold Rankings given his strength!”

“As for how strong he is, it will be clear in the showdown with Demon God Lin.”

Many top figures set off from different places and headed for Kongzhe Mountain.

All of a sudden, the number of cultivators around Kongzhe Mountain increased dramatically.

“That’s—”

Some people gasped when they saw a golden-winged dapeng gliding across the sky. Its wings cast shadows on the mountains and its entire body was glowing like gold.

Shua!

When the golden-winged dapeng landed on the ground, it had transformed into an average, plain-looking young man apart from his pair of brilliant golden eyes.

“Little Golden Winged Dapeng King!”

Many people gasped. Similar to Underworld Son, Little Golden Winged Dapeng King was also an ancient-era eccentric genius born in the Supreme Realm and possessed unrivaled combat power.

However, he behaved in an extremely low-key manner and moved mysteriously like a dragon.

But now, he also came to Kongzhe Mountain!

Boom!

A celestial phoenix let out a clear cry, and when its wings swiped across the sky, the surrounding space collapsed with a deafening rumble. As soon as it appeared, wonderful and sacred light rained down before transforming into a tranquil and unworldly-looking woman.

It was Luo Jia, a descendant of the Celestial Phoenix Clan and a successor of Miluo Palace!

She was another splendid heaven pride.

“Haha, it’s so crowded today.”

With a hearty laugh, a figure came on a beautiful rainbow.

It was a tall and slender man dressed in jet-black robes. His hair was as white as snow and his face as perfect and handsome as it had been carved by a chisel.

His appearance caused a commotion as everyone recognized he was Ye Mohe, a successor from the Origin God Sect!

Similar grand entrances happened one after another, dazzling the nearby cultivators.

In ordinary times, it was difficult to see one of those remarkable figures, but now, they came in droves!

Who had ever seen such a spectacular occasion?

“This battle, regardless of who wins or loses, is destined to attract everyone’s attention and cause a sensation in the Upper Nine Realms!”

Everyone had a premonition that when Underworld Son came with his army, an unprecedented showdown would take place.

However, most people were actually a little worried about Lin Xun.

Everyone knew that Underworld Son had reached the fourth longevity tribulation and so he had already won against Lin Xun in terms of cultivation level!

Based on that, would Lin Xun dare to accept the battle?

Of course, whether or not Lin Xun dared to fight, Underworld Son was determined to take him down.

“During this period, the Upper Nine Realms have been relatively quiet and peaceful. Who would have thought that Lin Xun would return and stir up waves again? He is indeed a demon-like character.”

Many people sighed.

The outside world was constantly changing, while on Kongzhe Mountain, the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms disciples looked solemn and troubled.

Underworld Son was leading an army in their direction. How could they not be anxious?

However, to the surprise of Ji Xingyao and Mo Tianhe, during this tense and precarious situation, Lin Xun was leisurely strolling around Kongzhe Mountain like nothing was happening.

From time to time, he picked wildflowers and herbs.

Occasionally he uprooted some ancient trees and moved them to another area with a wave of his sleeve.

Occasionally, he stretched out his hand and caught a tremendous sheet of clouds to cover the ancient mountainous rocks.

Occasionally, he dug out a cave in the depths of the mountains.

In just two days, the tranquil and picturesque Kongzhe Mountain was found to be in complete disarray.

Mo Tianhe asked worriedly, “Brother Lin, if everything goes as planned, the Underworld Army will arrive tomorrow under the leadership of Underworld Son. Do you think we should make some preparations?”

This was the sixth time he came to find Lin Xun.

“Didn’t I say that you all don’t need to do anything? You just need to stay on the mountain and watch the show.”

While Lin Xun was talking, he picked up a washbasin-sized lapis lazuli and inserted it into the newly formed crack of a boulder.

His mannerisms were leisurely and carefree, but that only made Mo Tianhe smile bitterly, “Brother Lin, at this time, you should tell us what have you got up your sleeves?”

“You will know then.”

Lin Xun gave a mysterious smile.

In the end, Mo Tianhe sighed and turned around to leave.

Although Lin Xun said that they only need to sit back and watch the show,...how could they sit still and do nothing?

Recently, countless powerful and influential figures had gathered around Kongzhe Mountain. It was as though an underlying turmoil was brewing and storm clouds were approaching.

Anyone who saw the situation would struggle to remain calm.

In the main hall, Ji Xingyao asked, “What did he say?”

“He told us to watch the show and don’t have to do anything.” Mo Tianhe felt a headache coming on.

“Then, let’s watch the show.”

Ji Xingyao seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and relaxed. She said leisurely, “You don’t know Lin Xun, but I do. Why is that guy regarded as a demon? It’s very simple—He can do things that others can’t!”

“But that’s the great Underworld army, and it is watched over by Underworld Son in person!” Mo Tianhe said with a worried frown.

This was not because he had no confidence in Lin Xun’s ability, but because the situation was too severe.

Ji Xingyao smiled and said nothing else.

Only those who knew about Lin Xun’s past would understand that he had experienced similar treacherous situations in the past!

Yet he was still alive and well.

This time, would he create another miracle unimaginable to ordinary people?

Ji Xingyao could not say for definite.

But she would rather believe that Lin Xun could!

……

Rumble!

On the third day, the world quaked violently, and from a very distant place, a thunder-like rumble turned the sky dim and shook the mountains.

It was as though a raging torrent transformed by thousands of troops was sweeping across the world.

“Here they come!”

Instantly, everyone who was waiting near Kongzhe Mountain was alerted and released their spirit sense to check on the situation.

In the far distance, vicious birds were speeding across the sky, fierce beasts were galloping on land, and a tide of cultivators were rushing towards Kongzhe Mountain on either streams of light or unusual-looking mounts.

Faintly, fiendish qi was raging above the spectacular army, forming various terrifying phenomena.

A wave of murderous intent swept over the area like an unstoppable force.

Suddenly, many people’s expressions changed, and their hearts trembled.

From a glance, there were at least thousands of troops in the Underworld army, with the weakest being at the king stage and Supreme Kings were not uncommon!

Someone sneered, “Over the past years, Underworld has annexed dozens of forces of varying sizes. Isn’t it expected that they possess such powers? It’s a shame that they are ultimately just a large and uncontrolled group of people. If Underworld Son is killed, the Underworld force will definitely collapse like rats leaving a sinking ship.”

Many people agreed in their hearts.

The Underworld might have raised eyebrows with its spectacular and strong rise, but it was not a monolithic whole, and instead composed of many cultivators from different sects and clans.

Once something happened to Underworld Son, those who had submitted to Underworld would no doubt scatter and go separate ways!

However, it was too early to say this.

Regardless of whether the spectators admitted it or not, the Underworld force was as strong as the midday sun, surging forward with magnificent momentum.

“That person is indeed exceptionally talented and born with great blessings!”

Meanwhile, some top figures’ eyes were fixed on the leader of the Underworld Army.

That was Underworld Son. His imposing and slender figure was cloaked in a black wide-sleeve robe and his face was stern and prideful. Wisps of obscure and cold light lingered around his body, amplifying the chilling expression in his eyes.

He alone exuded an air of superiority that stirred the world. Instantly, he became the center of attention of the audience.

Following behind him, the impressive army was just his backdrop.

The crowd around Kongzhe Mountain voluntarily parted to leave a wide space and did not dare to block the area.

The Underworld Army came to a stop before Kongzhe Mountain.

The atmosphere turned incredibly heavy, and the clear sky dimmed, filled with rolling fiendish qi.

No one below the king stage would dare stand near the area because the pressure bearing down on them alone was enough to crush them!

“Today, my Underworld will kill Lin Xun here and turn Kongzhe Mountain into a bloodbath. Those who have nothing to do with this, it’s best for you to stand far away!” Underworld Son’s voice broke the silence like a clap of thunder.

Many cultivators tensed up and subconsciously moved farther away.

But people like Little Golden Winged Dapeng King and Ye Mohe were not intimidated at all.

“I know that you all are here to watch the show, but let’s be frank, anyone who dares to interfere will become a mortal enemy of Underworld and also killed without mercy!”

Underworld Son ran his eyes across the spectators with a merciless expression.

Of course, he also detected the presence of some top fierce characters, so he issued this reminder.

Suddenly, an impatient voice sounded, “Hurry up and fight, don’t waste everyone’s time.”

It startled everyone, and they all glanced up to see that the one who spoke was Little Golden Winged Dapeng King.

Underworld Son shot a glance at Little Golden Winged Dapeng King and said nothing.

Then, he walked forward, hands behind his back and eyes suddenly darted to Kongzhe Mountain.

“Lin Xun, get out here and die!”

The voice reverberated through the nine heavens.

For a moment, the world was filled with echoes and cold, palpable murderous intent caused the space to crumble and nearby rocks and vegetation to pulverize into dust!

Shocked, everyone simultaneously looked at Kongzhe Mountain.

On Kongzhe Mountain, Lin Xun repeated in a serious tone, “Listen to me, stay here and no matter what, don’t step out of the mountain gate.”

Ji Xingyao, Mo Tianhe and the other Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms disciples furrowed their brows with worry. The Underworld forces had come out in full strength; the situation was worse than they expected!

Ji Xingyao started to lose her composure.

But in the end, under Lin Xun’s firm and unyielding attitude, they all agreed.

“Don’t worry, Underworld has great momentum, but they are nothing more than a group of clowns. They will collapse at the first blow.”

Lin Xun laughed, turned around and leapt into the air.

Meanwhile, Underworld Son’s ice-cold voice resounded across the world like thunder piercing the ear.

Ji Xingyao and the others couldn’t help but clench their fists, their hearts thumping uncontrollably.
