The Prodigies War

Chapter 1898: Cheating?

On the eighth floor.

Dressed in a wide-sleeved scholarly robe, Lu Dubu, who looked like a frail scholar, seemed to have turned into a completely different person. A divine brilliance surrounded him and his body emitted an imperishable noble spirit.

When his eyes opened and closed, there seemed to be the sun and moon floating up and down within them, captivating the soul.

“Life Passes Like A Dream!”

His long hair billowed and in front of him appeared a magnificent, dreamy Great Dao Field, reflecting the ups and downs of the world and the joys and sorrows of all living beings.

Boom!

On the opposite side, a black-clothed and black haired Dao Refining Battle Spirit, who looked like a peerless sword immortal, was caught off guard and trapped inside the Great Dao Field.

“In a dream, everything changes in the blink of an eye. In the world, the scenery transforms drastically in a moment!” Lu Dubu said leisurely like the ruler of the world.

As his voice faded, there seemed to be a river of time surging forth from the Great Dao Field.

It immediately submerged the black-clothed and black haired Dao Refining Battle Spirit.

Amidst muffled rumbling thunder, the magnificent Great Dao Field gradually swallowed up the frantically struggling Dao Refining Battle Spirit with frightening power. It was like a beautiful dream turned into a nightmare.

Lu Dubu put his hands behind his back, exuding an elegant and graceful bearing.

“After I kill the Dao Refining Battle Spirit on the ninth floor, the Martial Dao Origin Power I gain will be enough to transform my Life Passes Like a Dream to the perfect state!

“At that time, I have nothing to fear when I compete against the most extraordinary people in the world at the Dao Debate Assembly!”

Lu Dubu suddenly was full of pride and enthusiasm.

……

Meanwhile, also on the eighth level.

“Ten Directions Luosha!”

Wu Huang wore a cold and ruthless expression on his face. As he moved onwards, thick ink-like fog spread outwards from him, like the curtain of eternal night, transforming into a Great Dao Field.

Inside the Great Dao Field, the ground was paved with scarlet and adorned with bones. Luoshas were veiled in sinister black mist like evil spirits emerging from hell, swooping down from the sky with sharp and menacing screams and a ruthless arrogance.

Wu Huang’s black robe rattled as he stood there like the lord of Luoshas, the king of evil spirits. His gray-brown eyes were filled with cold-bloodedness.

As a Holy Imperial Apostle of Holy Illumination Ancient Sect, his foundation, talent as well as strength were all superb.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he came from the Ancient Nebula Underworld, given his strength and combat ability, he would have been ranked on the All Heavens Saint-King Rankings long ago!

“Die!”

He made a flourish with his hand.

Luoshas descended from all ten directions, as if the gates of hell had been opened. Endless evil spirits and Luoshas came charging madly at the Dao Refining Battle Spirit on the opposite side.

……

In the eyes of the influential figures in the outside world, Lu Dubu and Wu Huang had become completely different people.

The extraordinary bearing they exuded when they erupted with all their strength shocked them to the core.

“Amazing!” Guan Xu exclaimed, looking moved.

Lu Dubu, unrivaled in Cloud State and the pride of Great Void Sect, was a rare genius seen only once every thousand of years. He was bound to shine brilliantly at the Dao Debate Assembly held by the Great Six Courts!

“Not bad…not bad…”

Daoist Lan also smiled, but he sighed regretfully in his heart. How great would it be if Wu Huang was a true disciple of Phantasm Empyrean Island?

He cast a glance over at Heng Xiao and was about to make some sarcastic remarks when Heng Xiao sprang up, glowing with joy, and applauded, “Fantastic! Fantastic! Fantastic!”

Everyone else was startled.

Daoist Lan looked at him suspiciously.

Neither Lu Dubu nor Wu Huang were disciples of Xuanji Dao Sect, so why was Heng Xiao more excited than them?

When the influential figures followed his gaze, their jaws almost dropped, followed by gasps of shock.

It turned out that when their attention was fixed on the performance of Lu Dubu and Wu Huang, Lin Xun had already killed three Dao Refining Battle Spirits on the seventh floor with unstoppable force!

He overtook both Xie Yuhua and Wang Tu in one fell swoop!

“He…”

The sect master of Cloud Star Sect was flabbergasted.

“What happened just now? How did Jin Duyi suddenly become so powerful?”

The sect master of Sky Piercer Sword Sect was also dumbfounded.

The rest looked like they had seen a ghost. They could not imagine how he could reverse the situation in such a short period of time!

“Could it be that...the kid did not really show his true strength until now?” someone suggested, which made everyone look at each other with disbelieving gazes.

Before this, Jin Duyi’s pace was already terrifyingly steady, which made many people suspect that he had already used his full strength in secret. freёwebnovel.com

Now it seemed like they all underestimated the foundation of this youngster!

His unparalleled attacking speed stunned everyone with disbelief.

His opponents were powerful Dao Refining Battle Spirits on the seventh floor, but in front of him, they were crushed like paper!

At this moment they finally understood why Heng Xiao was so stirred up.

Jin Duyi’s performance was indeed extraordinary, and in no way inferior to that of Lu Dubu or Wu Huang!

“The speed of passing the levels can’t compare to real life combat. After all, Dao Refining Battle Spirits are non-living things, and a real battle between cultivators tests not only one’s strength but also state of mind and willpower!” Daoist Lan spoke aloud, “In my opinion, Jin Duyi is indeed extraordinary, but if you say that he can be compared with Lu Dubu and Wu Huang, I simply can’t agree with that.”

Perhaps it was because he had been slapped in the face too many times, but when he said this, he seemed to be holding back a lot although he was still targeting Lin Xun.

Heng Xiao snorted, “It’s not difficult to tell who is stronger and who is weaker. When the third round begins, it will all be clear.”

Daoist Lan smiled. “You are right, but unfortunately Lu Dubu and Wu Huang have already reached the ninth floor, but Jin Duyi has just entered the eighth floor. If he wants to catch up...it won’t be easy.”

Wu Huang represented Phantasm Empyrean Island.

Daoist Lan would be satisfied as long as Wu Huang beat Lin Xun.

However, before his voice died away, the audience burst into exclamations!

On the eighth floor, Lin Xun was still advancing with overwhelming power, killing an opponent in the blink of an eye!

It should be mentioned that both Lu Dubu and Wu Huang took around seven and a half minutes to kill the required Dao Refining Battle Spirits on the eighth floor!

Such a comparison could immediately judge who was better.

When Lin Xun killed the second Dao Refining Battle Spirit and progressed to the ninth level, all influential figures, including Guan Xu, were utterly dumbstruck.

The situation was completely beyond their expectations and imagination!

He was too fast!

So fast that they had no time to react.

By the time they reacted, Lin Xun had already left everyone in the dust and entered the ninth level!

“How is that possible…”

Daoist Lan cried out as he completely lost his composure. His expression dramatically changed.

The other influential figures also struggled to keep calm. Jin Duyi had indeed brought them too many surprises.

In the first six levels, he was neither hurried nor slow, but steady as a rock, catching up with one competitor after another. He demonstrated an extremely powerful foundation.

At that time, the impression he gave everyone could be summarized in one word: Steady!

Then, starting from the seventh level, he seemed to have become another person. He was like an unrivaled sharp blade emerging from a deeply hidden box—unstoppable and swift as the wind!

Even the amazing Xie Yuhua and dazzling Wang Tu were left behind by him.

At this moment, he rushed onto the ninth floor at an unbelievable speed!

The atmosphere was quiet and still. Even though the important figures had much life experience, they were still stunned by the scene and billows of thoughts rolled across their minds.

“That Jin Duyi has hid his strength well!”

“How can an independent cultivator have such an ability? He has to be a peerless monster from another world in the starry sky. I wonder which old antique is his master…”

“I didn’t expect this.”

Even Heng Xiao was astonished. He knew that Lin Xun was incredibly strong and had a powerful background.

Despite that, he did not think that the rough-diamond-like youngster who kept such a low-profile would be so dazzling when he showed his brilliance!

After a while, Daoist Lan recovered from the shock and tried hard to suppress his emotions. “Right now, Jin Duyi has already reached the ninth floor like Lu Dubu and Wu Huang. I wonder if he can…” His voice ended abruptly.

His eyeballs almost popped out and his face was frozen stiff.

However, no one laughed at him because they were just as shocked, standing transfixed in stupefaction.

On the ninth level, the Great Void Secret Realm, was only one Dao Refining Battle Spirit, but it was also the most powerful and terrifying. Even the most outstanding perfect supreme Saint-Kings would have to exert a great deal of strength to kill it!

For example, Lu Dubu and Wu Huang were already straining themselves, but they were still locked in a fierce battle with their opponent. It did not look like the match would end anytime soon.

But it was different with Lin Xun.

Once he reached the ninth floor, just like before, he killed the Dao Refining Battle Spirit within a few breaths!

His domineering and powerful bearing and his invincible demeanor left the influential figures all shocked and speechless.

After a long period of silence, someone spat out three words, “What a monster!”

“Unbelievable..” someone else murmured in a daze.

“If someone tells me that the kid is a core disciple from the Great Six Courts, I will not have any doubts. Only a huge colossus like the Great Six Courts can raise someone like him.” Someone sighed emotionally.

Daoist Lan completely lost control of himself and screamed out loud, “No, this can’t be true, Jin Duyi must have cheated!”

He had been targeting Lin Xun ever since the second round of selections began, but Lin Xun’s marvelous performance every time was like a direct slap to his face, which made the anger and frustration in him built up.

Until now, when Lin Xun surpassed Lu Dubu and Wu Huang in an unparalleled manner, it was like a loud and crisp slap to his face that unleashed all the pent-up frustration in him.

In truth, if the influential figures present had not witnessed it with their own eyes, they would never believe that such a reversal could happen at the last moment.

Lu Dubu and Wu Huang, who were believed to be most likely to win first place in the second round of selections, were overtaken by the dark horse Jin Duyi!

Who would have imagined this would happen?

“Daoist Lan, you are simply ridiculous. This selection takes place in the Great Void Dao Refining Pagoda. Do you think Fellow Daoist Guan Xu is someone who will allow cheating?” Heng Xiao questioned coldly.
