The Prodigies War

It was indeed pitiful.

They had tried to fan the flames, but their actions only highlighted Lin Xun’s amazing power and brilliant records.

It drove Ying Qiao crazy.

The nearby Magi Brute experts were all livid, but they had nowhere to vent their anger. They even looked at Liu Wen with a tinge of hatred.

After all, he was the only human around.

Liu Wen turned ashen-faced as if he was sitting on pins and needles, feeling extremely wronged and uncomfortable. He hated Lin Xun as much as they did. He had long wanted Lin Xun dead, but the reality was very cruel to him!

What annoyed him the most was that the brute bastards unexpectedly directed their hatred onto him for no reason. They don’t treat me as one of them!

No matter what, Lin Xun’s appearance and his outstanding battle record had turned the situation around and made the morale of the Magi Brute Race plummet.

Many brute experts were restless and anxious after hearing that Lin Xun was still alive. Not only had their morale taken a hit, but they were also worried about a similar tragedy happening in the future.

Sure enough, their worries came true. On the same day, an empire cultivator released a message on behalf of Lin Xun—

“Young Master Lin wants to tell your half-step kings that death is coming for them!”

His words set off thousands of waves!

The Magi Brute experts were all dumbstruck. That guy…actually wants to continue to kill?

The half-step kings trembled with shock and anger. He even dared to threaten us! He is too arrogant!

But they couldn’t help feeling afraid. Several half-step kings had already died in Lin Xun’s hands. It might be a fluke the first time, but when it happened so many times, it had to be more than luck.

Even the three brute kings, King Yan Qiong, King Jin Po, and King Lei Xiao became livid when they heard the news. Lin Xun’s message made their blood boil.

How dare a teenager at the Heaven Ascension Stage act so arrogant in the Mulberry Woodland? Does he think we don’t exist?

“Young Master Lin is amazing!”

“He is like a fierce tiger!”

“Heaven has eyes! The empire is blessed to have a young genius such as Young Master Lin.”

Lin Xun had caused a sensation. Everyone’s respect and admiration for him soared to an unprecedented level.

A Heaven Ascension Stage teenager had effortlessly killed half-step kings. Who wouldn’t be amazed and awed?

……

That day, even Lin Xun, who was busy searching for jade stones in the Mulberry Woodland, heard about the news and the storm it caused. He never imagined that the matter would set off an uproar.

Along the way, he encountered some incidents that left him dumbfounded. Several Magi Brute experts turned pale and bolted in panic when they ran into him.

Empire cultivators he encountered rushed forward to greet him enthusiastically, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

When they learned that he was searching for some jade stones, they generously gave him some that they had collected these days.

He politely declined, but they were too enthusiastic and refused to take no for an answer.

In the end, he had no choice but to accept their kind intention.

In just two days, he had accumulated a bag of at least six hundred jade stones.

He couldn’t help but smack his lips. This is much faster than exploring and searching alone.

At first, he was very cautious and vigilant because he knew that he had caused too great of a disturbance. Although the three half-step kings did not die at his hands, he had a feeling that no one would believe him no matter how he tried to explain it.

Additionally, he had announced that he would continue to kill the half-step kings of the Magi Brute Race so he had become the focus of attention.

He did not doubt that the Magi Brute Race would fight back after suffering such a huge loss.

Therefore, he never let down his guard in his following operations. He even speculated that the brute kings might take action against him.

However, something unexpected helped him resolve all the potential threats.

On that day, an unbelievable phenomenon happened in the ruins in the depths of the Mulberry Woodland. A mysterious azure cloud formed into a flower and fluttered down from the sky.

It was as though flowers were falling from heaven like the legends claimed.

At the same time, a mysterious dao temple appeared in the same area. It stood at the top of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine steps like a ladder to heaven!

The grand dao temple stood tall between heaven and earth, exuding a sacred aura that added a majestic charm to the world.

It was no doubt a great opportunity!

Everyone on both the empire side and the Magi Brute Race was stirred up and raced there with all their strengths.

How would they care about Lin Xun anymore?

Lin Xun felt a weight lifting off him and, after some deliberation, he decided to leave the Mulberry Woodland!

He had already collected enough jade stones and completed the purpose of his trip. He was certain that the number of stones he had collected could help the Broken Blade transform.

As for the mysterious dao temple that suddenly emerged in the world, although he was curious about it, he knew that, given his current strength and ability, he would be throwing away his life if he went there with the others.

He might be able to kill half-step kings, but that was only because of the power of the No-Nonsense Bow and Biluo Arrow, which he could only use once at most. He wouldn’t survive a prolonged battle.

If he were to compete for opportunities with the true kings, then he would most likely be killed.

Furthermore, he had a feeling that the terrifying creatures lying dormant in various areas of the Mulberry Woodland wouldn’t sit and do nothing.

As expected, while he was leaving the woodland, he heard a cicada chirp followed by a gush of terrifying sacred aura rushing to the depths of the Mulberry Woodland.

At the same time, blood-red light flooded the sky of another area and a blood-red moth launched into action like a storm, engulfing everything like a black hole.

Boom!

What sent goosebumps through his skin was that, where he killed Teng Hai, a half-step king, an enormous thousand-foot long jade-green jiao dragon sped across the air with an ear-splitting roar, leaving behind a long trail of sacred aura.

The jade-green jiao dragon was the terrifying creature that had been hibernating in the depths of the underground cave!

“Even the terrifying creatures who have set foot onto the Saint Path are taking action. What kind of amazing secrets are hidden in that dao temple?” Lin Xun wondered.

But all that only made him more determined to leave the Mulberry Woodland.

An unpredictable bloody storm would soon break out around the dao temple. At that time, even the true kings of the empire and the Magi Brute Race would be in danger!

Lin Xun didn’t want to linger around in hell any longer.

Regardless of how amazing the opportunity was, if he could not seize it, he would only be killed if he went there.

……

One day later.

He safely returned to the entrance area of the Mulberry Woodland, and he heaved a long sigh of relief.

Even the return trip was filled with unimaginable dangers. Many terrifying and vicious creatures had appeared one after another, and he even encountered objects with saint- and king-level powers.

For example, there was a broken bronze spear. It seemed to possess spiritual intelligence and exuded a faint sacred aura. Even if it was a broken Saint weapon, its power was still fiercer than a true king.

He also encountered a demonic golden flower. It sent out streaks of golden light from its fluttering petals like a rain of swords which tore apart the void.

It was no doubt a King-level being!

In addition to those, there were also many bizarre and unknown creatures racing to the depths of the woodland like they had just awoken.

Lin Xun witnessed those terrifying creatures instantly eliminate any fleeing experts from both the empire and the Magi Brute Race.

He finally realized the terror of the Mulberry Woodland that was known as the demonic soil stained with the blood of gods.

It was as equally as terrifying as places such as the Dao Burial Sea Mound and the Return Dominion.

“Fortunately, I didn’t go near the mysterious dao temple, otherwise…” he shuddered.

Without further stopping, he hurried out of the Mulberry Woodland.

Along the way, he ran into many empire cultivators and Magi Brute experts who were fleeing like him. They sensed the danger and didn’t want to stay any longer to protect their lives.

Huh?

Not long after leaving the Mulberry Woodland, he detected a familiar figure with his spirit-sensing power.

Liu Wen?

He was frantically running with a group of Magi Brute experts.

Then, Lin Xun noticed Ying Qiao, the young master of the Darkness Tribe, among them.

“Haha, what a small world…” His lips curled upwards in a sneer, and he followed them furtively.

“I can’t accept this! Not only did we fail to kill Lin Twelve, but we also didn't even have a chance to take part in the opportunity!”

Ying Qiao’s face was clouded over as they sped away from the woodland.

Everyone was running away, and no one was in the mood to fight so they didn’t run into many obstacles.

“Young master, don’t be disheartened. There is always hope. With your current foundation and strength, sooner or later you will set foot onto the supreme path!” Liu Wen quickly comforted him.

“Not only are our efforts wasted this time, but they also made Lin Twelve rise to fame again! That damn bastard! If he didn’t have the mysterious bow, would he possess such heaven-defying strength?!” Ying Qiao gnashed his teeth and his eyes almost split in anger.

Liu Wen also cursed, “Young master, a person like Lin Twelve will suffer one day. He is too showy. As they say, the taller the tree, the more likely it will be toppled over by the wind. The more dazzling he is now, the worse his death will be when it comes!”

“Is that right?” An indifferent voice sent a shiver through Liu Wen and almost scared his soul away.

That voice…was too familiar!
