The Prodigies War

Broken Blade was jet-black and just over a foot long. The broken part was smooth and clean as though it had been sliced off during a battle against another supreme blade.

When mobilized, Broken Blade would erupt with dreamy, star-like brilliance. It could be considered a heaven-defying fierce blade.

Lin Xun investigated it closer and circulated his spirit sensing powers. He found that the inside of Broken Blade was boundless and empty like a void.

It was as though the inside of Broken Blade was a world of nothingness, and nothing could be perceived.

“Strange, where did those ancient incomplete dao markings go…” Lin Xun mumbled, creasing his brows.

He clearly remembered that when the demonic black lotus flower fluttered down and almost killed him, Broken Blade underwent a transformation. Ancient dao markings appeared densely across the blade and instantly incinerated the black lotus flower to ashes.

That mysterious transformation had saved Lin Xun’s life.

However, Lin Xun couldn’t find any traces of those dao markings no matter how he investigated the blade!

However, that made him more convinced that Broken Blade was mysterious, unfathomable and unpredictable.

“It’s him…”

“Endless years have passed, and he has already died…”

“We are all wrong…”

“Wrong?”

Inexplicably, the conversation between the mysterious Buddha figure and the graceful figure echoed in Lin Xun’s mind. Then, he thought of the empty and terrifying eye sockets of the Buddha figure!

The Buddha figure had clearly shown up because he noticed something about Broken Blade, but for some unknown reason, he and the mysterious graceful figure suddenly disappeared.

“Could it be that he was referring to the original owner of Broken Blade?” Lin Xun fell into deep thought.

In the end, he let out a sigh and put it away. He had achieved nothing after thinking it over and over again, so he decided to bury the puzzle in the bottom of his heart for now.

Perhaps one day, when his strength reached a certain level, he could unravel the secrets in Broken Blade...

Buzz!

Lin Xun brought out the Nameless Pagoda. It floated in the air, enveloped in sacred golden light.

“I wonder how many shards of ego fragments I obtained. I hope I won’t be disappointed…”

With a quiver of excitement, Lin Xun summoned the pagoda to his hand and investigated.

Huh?

However, when he saw the scene on the first floor of the pagoda, his eyes went wide and he froze up.

Wonder-gold dao light was flowing quietly and peacefully on the first floor of the pagoda like silk, sprinkling flecks of dreamy star-like light onto the ground.

However, there was a green-robed youth sitting inside in a relaxed manner, spewing golden light from his nostrils and mouth and swallowing the baleful qi of one of the wraith experts.

The wraith expert’s figure gradually blurred and soon vanished completely.

The green-robed youth smacked his lips and let out an unsatisfied sigh.

Who was he?

Why would he appear on the first floor of the wordless pagoda?

Lin Xun was startled by the terrifying scene. The green-robed youth had bizarrely swallowed a wraith expert in one breath.

It should be mentioned that the baleful qi around a wraith expert was extremely terrifying and would inflict irreparable damage to the spirit. Cultivators would avoid them at all costs, but the green-robed youth treated them as food!

Don’t tell me that guy has eaten the dozens of wraith experts I captured?!

Indescribable anger surged in Lin Xun’s heart. The first floor of the pagoda was completely empty and only the green-robed youth was sitting inside alone. Lin Xun immediately concluded that the green-robed youth was the culprit!

Damn it!

Someone had swallowed all the ego fragments!

Lin Xun lost his composure. He thought he had a harvest greater than the disciples of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land, but he never thought that such a disaster would happen!

“Hmph! Human, since you came, hurry up and pay respect to me, the king!”

The green-robed youth suddenly rose to his feet and clasped his hands behind his back. His eyes shined brilliantly as he roared.

He was extremely handsome, with red lips, thick dark brows, pearly white teeth and captivating golden eyes. His face was sharp like it was shaped by an ax, and he exuded a unique demonic charm and arrogance.

Su Xingfeng was handsome and beautiful, but he couldn’t be compared to the green-robe youth.

The corners of this unknown person’s lips were slightly raised. His golden eyes flashed like electricity, and his voice was deep and imposing.

Lin Xun couldn’t help but narrow his eyes. “King?”

Did he call himself a king?

Baffled, Lin Xun noticed a hilt hanging by the waist of the green-robed youth, wrapped in a blood-stained cloth.

“Are you the wraith?” Lin Xun blurted out.

He remembered. He had split a wraith who had snuck up on him into two halves and suppressed it in the pagoda. The wraith was incredibly intelligent and cunning.

After that, many wraiths started to attack him from all directions to save the captured wraith. He felt as though he had poked a hornet’s nest.

He speculated that the guy with the strange hilt had an extraordinary status within the army.

However, he couldn’t associate that guy with the green-robed youth before him. The two were too different.

However, the strange hilt in the youth’s hand made Lin Xun suspect his identity.

“How dare you?! You were rude to me before. I haven’t settled accounts with you yet, and now you dare to regard me as a trash-like wraith! You deserve to be killed!” The green-robed youth thundered with arrogance.

Lin Xun was finally certain that the green-robed youth was the cunning wraith!

“In the past, I would have made an insignificant ant like you crumble to ashes with a snap of my fingers. But since you were unaware of my identity, I will let you off this one time. Quickly kneel down and invite me out of here to atone for your sins and I will spare you death!”

“Oh, since you are so powerful, why don’t you come out by yourself? Why do you need me to invite you out?” Lin Xun said expressionlessly.

Not only did the guy whom he had split in half devoured the dozens of wraith experts he captured but he also arrogantly ordered him around!

“Hmph! I wanted to give you a chance but since you won’t cherish it, don’t blame me when I destroy this pagoda!”

The green-robed youth’s handsome face was cruel and cold as he threatened. “But at that, you won’t have a chance to regret it!”

Lin Xun laughed angrily. He already knew that the guy was bluffing. “Bastard, you ate so many pieces of my ego fragments, how dare you still threaten me?”

The green-robed youth froze, a bad feeling surging in his heart.

However, his expression remained so calm that there wasn’t even the slightest ripple. He

coughed out loud and said, “Little boy, it’s very rare to see someone with a backbone. I also admire talents, so I have decided to not make things difficult for you. I am willing to grant you an opportunity. As long as you…"

“No thanks.”

Lin Xun put on a fake smile. “I have decided to let you see your current situation clearly first.”

The green-robed youth’s expression altered slightly, panicking. He forced himself to calm down and said, “What do you mean? You must know that I have knowledge of the profound meanings of heaven and earth, and I have mastered thousands of ancient arts. Any one of those arts will provide you with endless benefits and help you attain the great dao…”

Before he could finish speaking, he wailed in agony. A ray of wonder-gold dao light struck his body and made him stagger to the ground.

“Oh, is this the king who has mastered all kinds of arts in the world?” Lin Xun grinned as he manipulated the wonder-gold dao light to slaughter the green-robed youth.

He was infuriated. If he didn’t torture the green-robed youth, he couldn’t vent his anger at seeing his captured ego fragments go to waste!

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Rays of wonder-gold dao light crackled like golden whips as they lashed the youth.

The youth screamed and dodged frantically.

“Human! Do you want to die!?”

“Damn it! How dare you be so cruel! Just you wait! When I get out of it I will crush you to ashes!”

“Ahh—ahh—noo—don’t…don’t be like this, fine, I admit defeat! I will apologize to you, okay?”

The green-robed youth wailed again and again. His clothes were torn, and his back was riddled with bloody scars.

He was insufferably arrogant and haughty and considered himself above everyone else, but now he was crying and begging for mercy. The change was too drastic.

How would Lin Xun let him go so easily? Regardless of how he begged for mercy, he would not be swayed and continued the torture.

What surprised him was that, although the green-robed youth liked to bluff and brag, he seemed extremely resistant to beatings. Other cultivators would have been severely wounded and on the verge of death after being struck by the wonder-gold dao light.

However, the youth was still alive and kicking, like an immortal cockroach.

“You have gone too far! I already begged for mercy, but you are still so heartless! Do you really want to take my life? Do you know who I am? Do you know even the Wraith King treats me with respect?!”

The green-robed youth howled madly, his face red with embarrassment and fury.

However, those kinds of threats were useless to Lin Xun. It only made him more and more ruthless.

In the end, the green-robed youth’s golden eyes became bloodshot, and his hair stood up in anger. He let out a long roar, but his words made Lin Xun’s eyes widen with surprise.

“Stop, stop, stop! Sir, please forgive me!”

The green-robed youth wailed until his voice went hoarse. It was clear how helpless and indignant he was at that moment.

His words took Lin Xun aback for a moment but then he immediately sneered, “Forgive you? After eating all my ego fragments, do you think I will spare you? Impossible!”

As he was speaking, rays of wonder-gold dao light bombarded the green-robed youth.

Pu!

To Lin Xun’s surprise, after the golden light faded and the green-robed youth vanished, a golden toad was crouching on the ground, and it had only three legs...
