The Prodigies War

Chapter 1451: The Great Opportunity Arrives

What is a tribulation if I want to breakthrough?

That single sentence drifted around.

But when it spread out, it was like thunder sweeping through the sea of clouds, shaking the heavens.

The land was instantly filled with thunderous echoes of it, causing the air to ripple violently.

At the foot of the mountain, Zhao Xingye looked up with an astonished flash in her eyes.

She saw a cloud as dark as ink coalescing. It then gradually accumulated and grew until it blotted out the whole mountain peak and the sky above it.

The blanket of darkness was like eternal night, along which a heavy, oppressive, and terrifying aura of destruction spread.

The atmosphere in the radius of thousands of miles had completely changed.

At the top of the mountain by the cliff, Lin Xun stood with his arms folded. In his unfathomable eyes, not an emotion could be spotted.

Having woken up from a month of listening to the profound teachings of great dao, his cultivation suddenly rose like the water in a lake that had been suppressed for a long time.

His physical cultivation smoothly ascended to the eighth longevity stage.

His qi cultivation also reached the peak of the King stage and was at the point where it needed release and destruction in order to be built into something better.

This was when the opportunity to advance arrived.

Deep within the tribulation clouds, lightning streaks tumbled like dragons, dazzling while emitting a destructive aura so heavy that it made one feel as if they were suffocating.

Lin Xuns heart was like a still ancient well. His growing understanding of the mystery of the great dao formed a clear spring that streamed along him.

Those marks of the great dao were like the record of an Emperors enlightenment. What a cultivator might comprehend from them would differ depending on their cultivation level.

For Lin Xun, what he had comprehended were the mysteries of the longevity path.

By borrowing external power, one could fill their own shortcomings. From the enlightenment of an Emperor concerning the path of longevity, Lin Xun had deduced, then examined himself to see what he was lacking and made up for it. During this one month of meditation, his cultivation path had completely transformed for the better!

Lin Xun didnt have to wait very long for his ninth longevity tribulation to descend.

Dazzling lightning dragons started striking down from the dark cloud in what resembled a big net woven by thunderstorms, carrying an overwhelmingly destructive aura.

Lin Xuns clothes fluttered as he tread the air and went up step by step before sitting down cross-legged. He was like an immovable boulder. The only parts of him that moved were his dancing black hair and clothes.

The next moment, the rolling tribulation lightning enveloped him. Each bolt of lightning possessed the horrifying power to decimate any longevity King. When they came down in a dense patch on a single person, even the world couldnt imagine the sheer horror of it.

However, Lin Xun had not made any moves. He just sat there, resisting and dissolving the lightning with his own strength like an old monk in meditation.

Brilliant arcs of electricity and crystalline thunderbolts erupted and surged within his muscles, producing deafening sounds of collision. Before long, his skin and flesh ruptured inch by inch. Scarlet blood dripped out and turned him into a statue of blood, but his expression remained unperturbed.

From his calm, relaxed, and self-contained manner, one wouldnt think that he was undergoing a tribulation. Instead, it looked like he was borrowing the power of the tribulation thunder to refine his body!

Zhao Xingye had already retreated to a faraway place before the arrival of the tribulation. As she silently watched it, her mind was unable to calm down.

Her ninth longevity tribulation had been nowhere near as terrifying as this one. She had also seen other people crossing their ninth longevity tribulations, and theirs had been similarly far inferior to this one triggered by Lin Xun.

So this is the kind of tribulation for a supreme figure Zhao Xingye inwardly marveled.

And the way that Lin Xun was crossing it made her emotional, to the point that she found it hard to believe it.

Other cultivators treated tribulations like their great enemy. Just like facing a test of life or death, they would cross them utmost care and pull every card in their arsenal.

But Lin Xundid nothing!

He just remained seated in the void like the Buddha on the lotus seat, like the Daoist Ancestor on the praying mat, like the still clouds and light breezes on a sunny day. All kinds of tribulation lightning struck him and severely damaged him, but he just seemed oblivious to it all.

This was the first time since Zhao Xingye had set foot on the path of cultivation that she had been so unspeakably shaken.

It was like witnessing a miracle taking place!

Meanwhile, the depths of the Mulberry Woodland were witnessing a shocking occurrence.

Dong!

From within the magnificent and mysterious palace with 9999 steps, the sound of a bell tolling echoed.

All the terrifying creatures in every part of the Mulberry Woodland instantly stopped whatever they were doing, and their gazes were directed toward the same area.

The great opportunity has finally arrived!

In a swamp, a magnificent, fiery red demonic flower rushed out. Each petal was branded with the marks of dao. The stamen was shrouded in a haze that shed a rain of sacred light, which then transformed into hundreds of millions of misty sword qi clanging resoundingly.

With a whoosh, the demonic flower teleported away in a flicker.

Ive been hibernating for countless ages all for this day. Whoever stands in my way is the enemy of my dao!

A barren plain suddenly cracked open, revealing a huge gully that was thousands of feet long. A huge flood dragon that looked like it was carved from polished turquoise jade rose from it and into the air. In that instant, just the aura emanating from the flood dragon turned the entire plain into dust.

Clang!

In another pitch-black canyon, an old and tattered bronze halberd flashed in the void and vanished.

Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor, Ill definitely seize this opportunity you left behind!

From a rolling blood-red mist, a blood-colored moth flew out. It was only the size of a palm, but the pair of wings on its back looked as if they were made of heavenly dao gold stained with teardrops of blood.

A single beat of those wings caused the air to boom and the land to rumble, while the moth itself had disappeared.

Time for us to set out as well, said a violet-clad figure on a lone mountain peak. As he took a deep breath, a terrifying aura shot out from his eyes and tore apart the air.

He was the supreme ruler of the Ziyao Empire, Zhao Yuanji!

Around him were the plainly dressed imperial empress, as well as Zhao Tailai, who was dressed like a wealthy merchant, and the thin and white-haired principal of Qinglu Academy.

After over a decade of waiting, this great opportunity has finally arrived. You must seize it this time, imperial brother, said Zhao Tailai emotionally.

Over ten years ago, they had entered the Mulberry Woodland in search of their opportunities. Along the way, they had encountered countless extreme dangers.

They had also fought many opponents.

It had not been easy for them to persist in the Mulberry Woodland until this moment.

Using the land of primal chaos origin as his grave, the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor took advantage of his death to leave behind this great opportunity for the future generations. Such ability, such grace. He deserves to be revered by all even though he is already gone, lamented the principal.

Meanwhile, the empress asked the emperor, Yuanji, were not waiting for that little fellow under Lu Boyas guard?

She looked graceful while being dressed simply and having her black hair coiled into a bun.

Zhao Yuanji was stunned by the question. When he realized who the empress was talking about, he couldnt help but smile, As long as he returns to the lower plane, Lone Man will definitely send him here. Since I owed Lu Boya quite a few favors, if that kid really comes, then Ill help him seize an opportunity.

Zhao Tailai commented, Heh, I dont know how high his cultivation has gotten, but if its inadequate, then he wont be able to grasp this rare opportunity.

The Supreme King stage should be enough. The principal of Qinglu Academy thought for a moment and said seriously, Lu Boyas disciple definitely cant be half-bad.

The empress said softly, In fact, Im more worried about Wu Jiuzhong from the Brute Warriors and Gou Tianxing from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races. The former is the most unfathomable old monster of those brute tribes, while the latter is the sibling of the Azure Emperor. They both have powerful experts following them around, so we have to be on guard.

Zhao Yuanji nodded and said calmly, Other than those two old fossils, the ones we should actually keep an eye on are the beings who have been hibernating for ages in this primal chaos origin land.

He paused a little before adding, Do you still remember that white cicada? Its identity must not be simple. We joined forces but only barely managed to fight it to a draw. If it gets involved in this event, then it will be even more troublesome than Wu Jiuzhong and Gou Tianxing.

The empress, Zhao Yuanji, and principal of Qinglu Academy all frowned as they recalled the white cicada. They had come across it several years ago while searching for an opportunistic ground. The white cicada had displayed a violent temperament and struck at the drop of a hat.

Had they not joined forces to fight against it, the result would have been unimaginable. More importantly, they were well aware that this land of primal chaos origin housed many other similarly terrifying creatures, all of whom have been waiting for this great opportunity!

In other words, there were four forces vying for this opportunity alone: the Ziyao Empire, the Magi Brute Warriors, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races, and the powerful creatures laying low in this woodland.

Fortunately, over the past dozen years, Zhao Yuanjis group had already investigated and learned that these powerful creatures were not an allied group.

On the contrary, there was a competitive and hostile relationship between them.

If they had been in the same camp, then considering how horrifying such a force would be, Zhao Yuanjis group would have given up on this opportunity long ago!

A while later, Zhao Yuanji made his decision. Let us set out. If that lad comes, then hell definitely go to the Ten Thousand Tribulation Palace right away. We can go there first and wait for him.

The group immediately teleported away.

Its finally here A golden cicada was lying peacefully on a huge ice leaf of a sacred ice saint tree. Its clear, pleasant, and gentle voice carried a hint of delight, The world has changed drastically. Along with the great age has come great opportunities. Are you happy, ABai?

Hmph! The white cicada perching at the top of the tree snorted. Stop spewing nonsense. We have been trapped here for infinite years. Now that the opportunity has come, isnt it time to take action?

The golden cicadas voice remained gentle and calm, as if it would never get angry, There is no hurry. Its not like we are coveting that opportunity, we justwant to leave.

Theres no harm in seizing the opportunity before we leave. The white cicadas voice exuded a chilling cold and ruthlessness.

Pa!

The white cicada stumbled as soon as its words echoed like it had been smacked by something. And then, the golden cicadas gentle voice rang out

ABai, behave.
