The Prodigies War

Chapter 1572: A Grand Scene

Located in the extreme east of the Ancient Wasteland Territory, the boundless Black Cliff Sea presented the color of eternal night. It was home to perennial raging storms that drove up black water dragons to the sky, drawing a spectacular sight.

At the moment, countless cultivators were arriving from all directions.

Eventually, experts from the major forces of the other eight domains were packed shoulder to shoulder on the seashore.

In the depths of Black Cliff Sea, drizzling lights manifested from crisscrossing Law Power were forming the entrance to a secret realm.

Without a doubt, it wouldn’t be long before the Origin Magnet Secret Realm descended on the Black Cliff Sea.

“Heh, I wonder if those Ancient Wasteland sheep will stop cowering in their city and come here.”

“In the Absolute Hell Secret Realm, those fools were utterly routed by their poor self-awareness. You think they still have the galls to come after such a disaster for a lesson?”

“Don’t forget that we’ve been roaming this Ancient Wasteland Territory recently without seeing any of them coming out for a fight. Even that guy Lin Xun has been acting like an ostrich with no balls!”

Many cultivators were chatting among themselves.

They were densely packed and filling up the coast, but looking closely, one could still clearly distinguish they were distributed into eight camps.

“Speaking of Lin Xun, it’s really rare that a barren place like the Ancient Wasteland Domain could birth such a vicious and powerful character like him,” wondered a person.

“Who knows? This fellow first suppressed a city and then destroyed the army of the seven domains all by himself. His battle prowess is indeed terrifying.” Many were worried.

There was always some truth to the reputation of a famous person. During the past year, Lin Xun had first wreaked havoc in the Blood Demon Territory and then alone fought back the invasion of the seven domains’ army. Finally, he had worked miracles and rebuilt the City of Protection for the Ancient Wasteland Territory!

This kind of expert could be said to be amazingly rare even in the eight domains, so he naturally attracted extra attention.

“Hmph, he’s only one person after all. And he relied on a restrictive array to defeat the seven domains’ army,” laughed a cultivator coldly.

“That’s right. Recently, all our strongest forces have been gathering here, but Lin Xun hasn’t once shown himself and fought back! It’s obvious that he’s scared!” agreed another.

“Look!”

While talking, the crowd was suddenly startled by a terrifying aura.

Soon, one magnificent aura after another came into view. There were so many of them, and their speed of appearance was so fast that it looked like a rain of thunderbolts.

Many clicked their tongues and cried out in astonishment, “One, two, three… Alas, over eight hundred True Saints, and over a hundred supreme Saints!”

“So many Saints just to help us enter the Origin Magnet Secret Realm? Is it necessary?” Some were puzzled.

“That’s what you don’t understand. They aren’t here just to guard us so that we can safely enter the secret realm; it’s also to execute Lin Xun!” explained a person excitedly.

“More than eight hundred True Saints and a hundred supreme Saints… Even a Big Saint would have to avoid conflict with this kind of force. If Lin Xun dares to turn up, he will be but a mantis trying to fight a chariot and will surely die!”

Facing the grand scene of this huge Saint gathering, the crowd marveled and found it hard to breathe. Even those who were apprehensive of Lin Xun felt the fear in their hearts being washed away at the sight of such a magnificent lineup.

Someone muttered, “Now, the question is: does Lin Xun dare to come?”

From time to time, there would be a spatial fluctuation accompanied by a phenomenon appearing in the sky. They introduced a dazzling streak of light that represented the arrival of a Saint.

By the end of it, the thousand-mile area had been covered completely in divine phenomena, colorful lights, and a solemn atmosphere.

“One would never see such a spectacular sight in the outside world.”

The cultivators of the eight domains all felt overwhelmed. They were full of pride and firmly believed that any enemy supreme Saints would be torn to shreds if they came here!

Meanwhile, deep within Black Cliff Sea, a magnificent hall that was transformed from a Saint Treasure was floating above the water. Its huge pillars, the perimeter of which took the arm’s length of several people to measure, were densely engraved dragon and phoenix patterns.

In the treasure hall, there were dozens of supreme Saints who were either sitting or standing.

They exuded either heavy sword intent, streaming golden light, or blazing blue flames. Each of them resembled a deity of legend with majesty as boundless as the ocean.

Among them, three particular people had the most radiant auras that could rival the great sun.

They were none other than Xue Qingyi, Hua Hongxiao, and Shi Pohai.

“Let me express my gratitude to you all for coming to my aid!” Xue Qingyi stood up from the main seat and repeatedly cupped his fist as he faced all around.

He looked young and handsome, but his every movement carried the momentum capable of swallowing the world.

“Brother Xue needn’t be so formal. We are also curious to see what that fellow named Lin Xun is capable of,” said Shi Pohai, his voice rumbling like thunder as it filled every corner of the hall.

He was the leader of the Star Fiend Ancient Domain’s younger generation. He had crude facial features and unkempt eyebrows. Sitting there in an unbridled posture, he was like a dragon coiling around its lair.

On the other side, a black-clad Hua Hongxiao was sitting quietly as he drank to himself. He had long, ghostly blue hair and skin as fair as jade. His handsome features were characterized by a sense of loftiness and coldness.

“We are only worried that that little thief Lin Xun will sense the danger and doesn’t dare to come.”

“Hahaha, exactly.”

Everyone else in the hall laughed aloud.

The gathering of over a hundred supreme Saints and more than eight hundred True Saints could pose a threat to any domain camp, let alone a single Lin Xun.

Not to mention the fact that three of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes, namely Xue Qingyi, Shi Pohai, and Hua Hongxiao, were also in attendance!

“Lin Xun is incredibly fierce and his methods are bloody, though, so don’t let your guard down,” said Xue Qingyi as he started walking out of the hall. “Come with me, everyone.”

The pitch black seawater tossed and turned outside. In the distance, the coast was crowded with affiliated cultivators of the eight domain camps.

Xue Qingyi waved his hand, and twenty-four shiny, colorful, fist-sized beads rose up in the air before distributing themselves in different directions in the water.

The beads, each imprinted with dense runes, quickly formed a huge Saint-grade formation that covered the whole region and illuminated the sky with holy auras.

“These are the twenty-four Stabilizing Saint Orbs?” Shi Pohai was astonished.

“Indeed. This set of treasure orbs can construct the World Stabilizing Saint Array. Later on, our cultivators can watch the battle from inside so that they won’t get hurt by accident and miss the chance to enter the Origin Magnet Secret Realm,” replied Xue Qingyi with a smile.

The others repeatedly nodded in approval.

There was one more thing that Xue Qingyi didn’t say, which was that if something unexpected happened, then this formation would serve as their way out.

Of course, he couldn’t just say this out loud as it would hurt the group’s morale. He could already imagine the others snickering at him for being too timid and cautious if he did.

Under the supreme Saints’ arrangement, all the cultivators on the shore soon entered the World Stabilizing Saint Array.

Only the hundreds of supreme Saints and True Saint old monsters remained outside, causing the atmosphere of the area to become oppressive and murderous.

Seeing this, Xue Qingyi’s confidence shot up, and he was no longer worried.

He looked behind him and saw that the entrance to the Origin Magnet Secret Realm, which had been covered by the grand formation, would fully reveal itself in a short while.

Shi Pohai was chatting with the person next to him in a relaxed manner.

Hua Hongxiao was cold and lofty as ever as he drank his own wine. His eyes seemed to hold a glacier that was thousands of years old that prevented other people from approaching.

“Don’t tell me that Lin Xun is really too scared to come?” A supreme Saint frowned, somewhat impatient.

Right at this moment, there was a commotion.

“Over there!”

“The brat actually came.”

“Gutsy!”

Under the coverage of numerous spirit senses, two figures appeared in the distant horizon, looking as though they were taking a stroll in the air. The man was handsome and ethereal, and the beautiful woman looked like she came out of a painting in her fluttering clothes.

It’s really him!

Xue Qingyi and his group all locked their gazes on Lin Xun. Zhao Jingxuan, on the other hand, was ignored.

In their perception, only one person from the entire Ancient Wasteland Camp was worthy of their attention, and that was Lin Xun.

However, they hadn’t expected Lin Xun to come here with only one other person and even seem fearless at that.

Lin Xun stopped above the shore of Black Cliff Sea and whispered to Zhao Jingxuan, “Just watch the battle from here, Jingxuan.”

Zhao Jingxuan nodded and drifted to the ground. Scanning the area, she said, “From the looks of things, they aren’t here for the Origin Magnet Secret Realm but to kill you. If it gets too much for you, don’t try to act brave.”

Lin Xun rubbed his nose and laughed, “It’s simply taboo for a man to be looked down upon by his woman. Just watch.”

Zhao Jingxuan’s lips curled up. “Good!”

As the two talked, they treated the whole crowd like they didn’t exist and looked so relaxed that the faces of quite many supreme Saints darkened.

“What a pair of stupid animals, acting all intimate when death’s already at their door. Are they really that tired of living?” bellowed an expert in a rumbling voice.

The cultivators hidden in the grand array were also greatly surprised. The majority of them were seeing Lin Xun for the first time, but they hadn’t thought that he’d be even more arrogant and bold than in the rumors!

“Lin Xun, if you leave now, you might still have a chance of surviving. Or else, there is no way you will be able to escape this time,” said Xue Qingyi leisurely with his hands on his back.

However, he was certain that Lin Xun would never turn around and leave!

Back then, this fellow had dared to make a scene in the Blood Demon Territory all by himself just for the sake of some insignificant companions. Since it involved the chance to become supreme Saints this time, how could he possibly give up on it?

Sure enough, Lin Xun sneered, “This is our Ancient Wasteland Territory. You lot came here uninvited and even covet the fortune that belongs to our camp, and still think that I, Lin Xun, don’t dare to kill you?”

Every word he uttered was like thunder that shook the area and caused the seawater to rage in countless waves.

The sonic waves of his voice even bombarded the big formation like a substance and triggered the runes to light up.

The sound waves were dissolved by the runes’ colorful and dazzling glow, but even so, the foreign cultivators within all gasped and paled in horror.

Lin Xun is really as powerful and savage as the rumors say!
