The Prodigies War

“Kill him first and then seize the treasure? That works!” Following the roar, a middle-aged cultivator who looked like a scholar rushed forward.

Boom!

He folded his palm together, forming a palm print that slammed down through the air and instantly crushed the surrounding space. All rocks and ancient trees were turned to dust.

Shua!

Lin Xun darted away with a flash, leaving the palm to smash a giant pit into the ground, split the earth with huge cracks, and whirl soil into the sky.

Imaginably, the middle-aged scholar’s strike was frightening.

Amid the quaking void, a brilliant golden arc streaked across the air, erupting like a bolt of lightning. It destroyed everything in its way with its piercingly sharp and fierce aura.

It was a golden sword. Its razor-sharp tip emitted murderous intent that surged into the sky. It was launched from Han Yanque.

Lin Xun dodged once again, leaving the mountain he was standing atop to split into two. The world quaked as it collapsed.

Wearing a merciful look, Hua Qingchi, the sect master of the Spirit Pearl Sect, sighed, “As expected of a peerless figure of the younger generation. Little guy, one who is aware of their situations is a wise person. Wouldn’t it be a pity if you died right now?”

Boom!

But as he was speaking, someone launched another attack. A soul-chilling roar shook the world.

It was a stern-looking youngster with hair as bright as flames. When he launched the attack, he was akin to a ferocious ape. Not only were his movements agile and swift, but his terrifying fierce aura also blanketed the world.

The other influential figures of the Spirit Pearl Sect followed up with increasingly ruthless attacks one after another. The killing intent was so strong that it swept the area like a tidal wave.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Their figures flitted and flickered in mid-air, bringing a blinding brilliance and intense killing intent to completely isolate the mountain forest.

Evidently, Han Yanque had told them that Lin Xun previously managed to escape from the pursuit of Withered Vine Old Monster using the treasure ship, so they wanted to prevent him from fleeing with the same tricks again.

“Look, you are just like a captured fish in a net now. There is no way you can escape so instead of throwing away your life, why don’t you offer us your treasure ship?” Hua Qingchi let out a calm sigh once again as though they thought they had the upper hand over Lin Xun.

“You are very talented, and you have limitless potential and a very promising future. It’s hard for me not to admire your talents so if you surrender now then perhaps I can spare your life and even accept you as my official disciple. I promise to properly train you to become one of the strongest,” Hua Qingchi proposed with a smile.

As he made the suggestion, swords and blades were already glinting and sputtering sparks on the battlefield, ready to strike. The group of Spirit Pearl Sect cultivators launched into action, plunging the world into chaos and turmoil.

Lin Xun didn’t act rashly and continued to dodge the endless attacks. While his eyes were fixed in a certain direction.

There, he sensed a more dangerous aura—a half-step king old monster was hiding in the dark. That was the greatest threat to him!

After a moment of silence, Lin Xun suddenly sighed, “There are so many troublesome affairs to deal with tonight. If you came on another day when I’m in a better mood then perhaps I would spare your lives, but now…”

A streak of frightening divine light shot out from his abyss-like eyes and ripped through the dark night like a bolt of lightning.

“All of you will have to stay!”

They were in an ancient mountain forest far from the Flame Capital. There were miles of undulating terrain, an endless mass of peaks and ridges, and infinite forests of ancient trees.

Under the cover of darkness, the place was in turmoil and chaos. Even the chirping of insects and birds had faded, leaving only an atmosphere of desolation.

Lin Xun stood alone, his body emitting a beautiful glow and his eyes shooting out sparks of light.

He might have said those words in the most calm and resolute tone, but it still surprised Hua Qingchi and the others like they heard him wrong.

They couldn’t believe the kid would dare speak so rudely to them even at such a time. He clearly has a death wish!

A terrifying aura spread and pervaded the area, stirring the mountains and forests. It was a power that belonged to Cyclic Derivation Stage cultivators. Even if they hadn’t acted yet, their murderous intent was still overwhelming!

“Don’t hesitate any more and just kill him,” Hua Qingchi sighed softly, looking disappointed.

Boom!

Before his words faded, the group of Cyclic Derivation cultivators launched into action, speeding towards Lin Xun from all directions.

Instantly, beams of treasure light poured down like torrents, thunder rumbled and bolts of lightning intertwined. A truly terrifying battle had been kicked off.

Kill!

Han Yanque summoned the brilliant golden sword in fury, like an enraged sword god, and charged towards Lin Xun. Beams of sword light flooded the world like a waterfall.

Buzz!

Amidst the crumbling void, the mighty man roared and raised his fist into the air. All the nearby rocks and boulders were pulverized into smithereens while the terrifying blasts of air were about to cover Lin Xun.

Chi!

On the other side, the stern-looking youngster with fiery red hair sped across the air like a violent ape, as fast as lightning. His hands reached to latch onto Lin Xun’s head like a dragon claw.

“Du!”

The beautiful middle-aged woman uttered a strange mantra, summoning a long purple whip covered in cryptic symbols. It threw off sparks as it lashed the air and released scalp-numbing murderous qi.

All other Spirit Pearl Sect cultivators activated their secret arts one after another and brought out their precious treasures to launch a full-scale on Lin Xun.

Only the word earthshaking could describe the situation. Any other Heaven Ascension Stage cultivator in the world would have lost all hope and become powerless to fight back if they were thrown into the same situation.

Undoubtedly, they didn’t want to give Lin Xun any chance to live so they worked together to completely get rid of him once and for all!

But Lin Xun no longer dodged as he did before, but chose to attack proactively.

Boom!

As he charged forward, a snow-white Hornless Ice Dragon flew up into the air and blasted the purple whip away.

At the same time, he activated the Pulao Roar and sent deafening sound waves traveling through the area and dissolving most of the attacks.

At the same time, he threw a punch forward!

Kacha!

Blood splattered amidst the sound of crushing bones.

The mighty man attempted to smash Lin Xun’s chest with a punch, but who would have thought that Lin Xun would confront the attack with force and crush his right arm?

If he hadn’t dodged in time, the power of the punch would have crushed half of his body!

The mighty man screamed in agony, face deathly pale, and his soul almost left his body.

Boom!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun had already darted to the other side with lightning speed.

His figure glided through the air while the ground crumbled from the brief tap of his feet. His black hair whipped around him and his eyes flashed as cold as lightning. He seemed to have transformed into a demon god, emitting the most terrifying imposing aura.

“Quick! Quickly kill him!”

In the distance, Hua Qingchi was stricken to the heart, and his eyes were bursting with anger. How would he have anticipated that the youngster would erupt with such frightening strength as soon as the battle began?

Not only did he not hesitate to fight back, he critically wounded one of the great Cyclic Derivation cultivators in one blow! He was outrageously fierce and tyrannical!

“Die!”

Lin Xun resembled a berserk dragon that had broken free. The strength of his punches was condensed and filled with a destructive aura.

He easily crushed the fiery haired-youngster’s claw-like attack.

Sensing the unfavorable situation, the youngster quickly made the decision to retreat.

Lin Xun didn’t chase after him, but changed to another target.

Back when he was on the Blood Kill Battlefield, he had slaughtered several Enlightened Spirit experts, which were equivalent to Cyclic Derivation cultivators. Additionally, he also killed quite a few half-step kings.

Now that his cultivation had improved by leaps and bounds, how would he take those guys seriously?

He was only reluctant to counterattack because he didn’t want to cause too much of a disturbance. After all, it could draw the attention of experts from the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan.

However, he knew that he couldn’t hold back his strength any longer when the opponents launched their strongest and most ruthless attacks!

Boom!

His energy, qi and spirit blazed like raging flames, rising to an unprecedented peak state. His every move seemed to possess the power to wipe out the world.

It was a power that belonged to an absolute apex king of the Heaven Ascension Stage, capable of swallowing up the mountains and conquering the valleys.

Even if Lin Xun was going up against someone of a higher cultivation level, his unrivaled brilliance couldn’t be suppressed so easily!

Die!

The next second, Lin Xun activated the Bi’an Stamp, and with a loud bang, he blasted another cultivator across the air. So many bones had been broken that his body produced constant cracking sounds that lingered in the air, and blood trickled down his nostrils and mouth.

So terrifying!

All the Spirit Pearl Sect influential figures were terror-stricken. They had already regarded Lin Xun as a powerful enemy, so they hadn’t let their guard down once nor acted carelessly.

If not, they wouldn’t have dispatched so many high-ranking figures of the sect just to deal with him, a teenager at the Heaven Ascension Stage.

However, it wasn’t until now that they realized that they still underestimated the terror of the teenager!

His heaven-defying power and monstrous imposing aura were rarely seen even among peerless geniuses.

That made them suspect the teenager had already surpassed the category of the so-called peerless geniuses!

After all, the top geniuses in the world might be able to defeat experts of a higher cultivation level, but they wouldn’t stand a chance under the encirclement of so many great Cyclic Derivation cultivators.

However, the teenager fought his way out of the encirclement like a demon god and even managed to severely wound two of them!

The beautiful middle-aged woman’s piercing scream shook the battlefield. Lin Xun grabbed hold of her purple whip and yanked it hard, pulling her body towards him.

She refused to release her tight grip on the whip because it was a rare treasure that she cherished and she seldom brought it out in battle.

PA!

During her moment of hesitation, Lin Xun thrust his palm forward. The power from the palm strike glowed brightly before sending her through the air. Her face became badly mangled beyond recognition, and her seven apertures were oozing blood.

Pu!

Almost at the same time, a golden sword slashed through the air in the direction of Lin Xun. It was cunning, ruthless and razor-sharp.

But before it neared Lin Xun, a broken blade as bright as fresh snow lightly fluttered across the air, effortlessly slicing the golden sword into two like tofu.

Han Yanque wanted to use the opportunity to sever Lin Xun’s neck, but a look of shock washed over his face and his hair all over his body stood on end.

His sword had been destroyed so easily!

But the impending danger stopped him from thinking too much, and he frantically changed direction to avoid Lin Xun’s follow-up attack.

Shua!

He was still one step too late. The Broken Blade flashed across mid-air. Its glistening white brilliance coupled with its unparalleled razor-sharpness pierced through his abdomen, inches away from slicing his body in half. Bright scarlet blood gushed everywhere like a waterfall.

“Ah—“

Han Yanque’s shrill scream resounded in the air as he stumbled back in the air. Despite being a top Cyclic Derivation cultivator, he failed to deflect the blow and sustained severe injuries.

If it wasn’t for his comrade’s timely assistance, the blow would have taken his life!

It happened in a blink of an eye. It was so fast that everything was a blur. If they had acted a split second slower, their lives would have been in danger.

The mountain forest had been completely destroyed. The ground was a scene of desolation and the stench of blood was still hanging in the air.

Boom!

However, Lin Xun was still wearing the calmest of expressions. He continued to fight. He was very calm but also terrifying. He grew stronger and stronger as he fought, wanting to end the battle as soon as possible.
