The Prodigies War

Chapter 441 Biting Down On the Hatred and Leaving

Only battle could release the erupting power in Lin Xun’s body.

The raging power wasn’t just from the pill given by the empress but also from the enormous foundation Lin Xun had accumulated until now!

To perfectly control such a mighty force naturally required a fitting method.

As such, the new aeth artery that was forming above Lin Xun’s four heart acupuncture points became his only chance to gain control of this power.

Each time he was beaten back and suppressed, the illusory aeth artery seemed to undergo tempering and refinement, becoming a little more corporeal!

This was why Lin Xun remained fearless despite being overwhelmed by a Heaven Ascension expert like Daoist Bear.

He was using the battle as training and Daoist Bear as a sharpening stone.

Clang!

Daoist Bear was fully enraged. His curved blade glowed like a golden crescent moon in the darkness as he swung it with the intensity of a raging bull. A loud clang erupted from every clash and echoed across the land.

Lin Xun's ever-rising ferocity and strength had both alarmed and angered Daoist Bear, but worst of all, it humiliated him. It was shameful for a mighty Heaven Ascension expert to be incapable of dealing with a Spirit Sea youngster.

Daoist Bear did not know that not too long ago, the Heaven Ascension expert, Qian Huai, had also shared these same thoughts. However, he had subsequently died to the Sky Suppressing Bead.

Although Lin Xun no longer had any Sky Suppressing Beads, the raging power in his body and steadily climbing aura made it difficult for Daoist Bear to slay him for a time.

Swish~

All of a sudden, Daoist Bear roared. Thousands of golden rays rose like steam from his curved blade, illuminating the surrounding land like a rising sun in the night.

Screeeee!

A strand of golden light shot from the blade, narrowly missing Lin Xun’s head and cutting a strand of his hair before shooting past and severing a nearby mountain.

Everyone was horrified. Daoist Bear had clearly used his killing move, and its power was monstrous!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun’s fist seemed to rage as he fused the Mountain Smashing, Sea Splitting, and Soul Destructions into one and punched.

Clang!

Fist-force collided with the golden blade, causing an earth-shaking noise. It felt as if a thunder god was loudly banging his drums, which made the group of experts in the distance tremble.

The Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art was extremely powerful. Moreover, the moves could be stacked to multiply the resulting power.

In the past, Lin Xun had only been able to fuse two moves.

With the increase of his strength and the rapid change of his power, he was now able to stack three moves together easily!

His earlier punch was the perfect example of that!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Lin Xun displayed his full mastery of the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art, executing tri-fusion move after move.

Mountain Smashing Sea Splitting Soul Shattering Destruction, Sea Splitting Soul Shattering Emptiness Destruction, Soul Shattering Emptiness Dragon Destruction, Emptiness Dragon Phoenix Destruction…

The moves were continuously fused into his fist, producing power that was terrifying to the extreme.

Although Lin Xun was still beaten back by Daoist Bear each time and was clearly no match for him, everyone could see that his power was still rising!

“He’s too terrifying. Where did this youngster come from? How is he doing such an irrational thing? His combat power is growing way too ferociously!”

“Why do I feel as if there’s a treasure vault of power in his body that lets him continuously ramp up in battle?”

The crowd felt shocked and fearful as they broke into discussion.

Heaven Ascension experts could effortlessly crush any Spirit Sea expert. They wielded the grand dao imago power and could direct the vast forces of nature.

However, a Spirit Sea youngster was somehow managing to fight an expert that was one whole greater cultivation stage higher without being completely crushed. If this wasn’t heaven-defying, what was?

On the battlefield, Daoist Bear was more shaken than anyone else. He had cultivated for over a thousand years and possessed an unrivaled bloodline power. Despite all this, he was unable to convincingly subdue a mere Spirit Sea youngster. It was unfathomable even to him.

Moreover, he could see that Lin Xun’s strength was still climbing. Although it was still no threat to Daoist Bear, the rapid growth made his heart shiver.

Boom!

After yet another violent clash, Daoist Bear roared and finally brought out his trump card.

A Herculean Gold Bear phantasm appeared around him as swung the golden blade with all of his might!

Everyone felt a stabbing pain in their eyes as their bodies turned to jelly, shivering as if they had been transported to an ice cave. The terrifying attack felt as if it could slay even ghosts and gods!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun had attained a peculiar state of focus and immersion. The new aeth artery glowed above his four heart acupuncture points, churning out a domineering and peerless aura that forced all of the power in his body into a volatile boiling state.

Kill!

His fists raged as space crumbled inch by inch around them.

Emptiness Destruction, Prison Suppressing Destruction, Sky Devouring Destruction, and All-Spirits Destruction layered together into a single strike.

A devastating force burst forth as the hues of the sky and land visibly changed.

BOOOM~

An earth-shaking explosion drowned out all noise as everything within a several thousand foot radius was instantly turned to dust. Even space itself violently shattered to pieces, leaving nothing but horrifying devastation!

The watching group of experts had already withdrawn much further away after sensing impending destruction. Despite this, they still turned pale with horror as they watched everything unfurl.

Lin Xun was flung backward and painfully smashed into the ground, creating a large dust cloud.

In contrast, Daoist Bear only looked a little out of breath. He was confident that his trump card had killed Lin Xun.

A heavy silence spread as if Lin Xun had indeed been killed.

Daoist Bear’s spirit senses reached out to confirm that it was finally over.

Who could have expected that blade-light would emerge from the crater and shoot into the sky?

At the same time, Lin Xun appeared!

“Impossible!”

Daoist Bear furiously roared as his expression changed. He could not fathom how even his trump card had failed to kill the youth.

Boom!

He shattered the blade-light with a quick swat and looked at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun was covered in blood and mud. His disheveled hair parted, revealing an indifferent face.

He had clearly sustained heavy injuries, ghastly white bone visible in several of his horrifying wounds.

However, his aura had also ascended to an entirely new level!

He stood there like a madly raging abyss, spewing cataclysmic storms that sought to swallow the world!

Far away, the watching experts’ minds had gone blank due to shock, unable to comprehend what they were seeing.

How did that not kill him? Does he possess an undying body?

“Again!”

Lin Xun finally spoke for the very first time. Although he only said a single word, it gave off a sensation of absolute power.

His black eyes and figure seemed to become the abyss itself. Space distorted around him as if being crushed by an invisible storm.

Clang!

The Violet Soul Blade released a clear cry as it attacked

The new aeth artery in Lin Xun’s body was already half-formed, gleaming like a jewel in its now corporeal state. He believed that it would fully materialize as long as he continued fighting. If he succeeded, it would become the talent he was always destined to possess ― the Grand Abyss Heaven Devourer!

Hence, Lin Xun’s battle lust was greater than ever.

“Hmph! I have something to attend to. The next time we meet will be your death date!”

To everyone’s surprise, Daoist Bear refused to continue and left with a wave of his sleeve.

Although he left with a parting threat, only Daoist Bear knew how angry and unwilling he felt. Never in his long life had he ever suffered such humiliation.

Despite using his trump card, he had failed to kill the Spirit Sea youngster and continued to be pestered by him. It was shameful, to say the least.

However, Daoist Bear also understood that he could no longer kill Lin Xun. The heaven-defying youngster was constantly growing in battle and could now survive his strongest trump card. There was no longer any meaning in continuing.

The most worrying part was that if Lin Xun continued to grow stronger in the fight, it was extremely likely that he would eventually turn the tables and become a genuine threat to Daoist Bear!

If that happened, it would be the end for him!

This was why Daoist Bear had ultimately decided to leave. Although it was frustrating and humiliating, it was undoubtedly the wisest choice.

“This…”

“Daoist Bear is leaving?”

“He doesn’t have a choice. Haven’t you realized that he can’t kill that youngster? If the battle continues, it would only become worse for Daoist Bear.”

“Holy hell! I can’t believe he forced a powerful Heaven Ascension expert to withdraw. He…which sect’s successor is he?”

Upon seeing Daoist Bear suddenly retreat, the crowd was shocked and their expressions changed indeterminately.

Having the thrilling battle end in such a manner was undoubtedly deeply humiliating for Daoist Bear.

On the other side, the youngster was a monster for forcing Daoist Bear to retreat!

Who was he?

Where did he come from?

The experts’ hearts trembled as they gazed at the bloody figure of the blade-wielding youngster.

A small commotion arose some distance behind the group.

“Wei Jun, is that…the target you wanted to hunt down? You’re sending us to our deaths. Hmph, I can’t accompany you any longer. Goodbye.”

“Junior Brother Wei Jun, you’re only giving a Soaring Dipper Pill and a hundred high-grade aeth crystals to kill such a monster? You’re a piece of work, y’know.”

Several men and women displayed unhappy expressions as they stormed away one by one.

They were disciples from the Fire Refining Sect that had also been drawn over by the battle. After finding out that the youngster fighting Daoist Bear was the target Wei Jun had asked them to hunt down, their expressions immediately changed to outrage.

How could they possibly deal with someone who could face a Heaven Ascension expert?

Wei Jun was clearly setting them up for disaster!

If they weren’t fellow sect disciples, they would have already cut ties with him.

Soon, only Wei Jun and the girl in the purple dress were left.

Both of them had extremely ugly expressions, especially Wei Jun, whose handsome face had distorted hideously.

Although he had been shocked by Lin Xun’s irrational combat abilities, it only made Wei Jung more certain that Qian Huai had died at Lin Xun’s hands!

Wei Jun understood why his fellow disciples had chosen to withdraw, but he still couldn't bring himself to accept it!
