The Prodigies War

Chapter 1507 Mind Killing Chamber

Chapter 1507 Mind Killing Chamber

Lin Xun broke out in cold sweat.

Who ever would have thought that something so terrifying existed at the bottom of the abyss?

“No wonder that there were rumors that Saints vanished forever after entering the depths of the Spirit Refinement Forest. They likely met with disaster here...”

While Lin Xun was in deep thought, the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly flapped its wings, creating streams of magnificent light.

An astonishing spectacle then followed.

The network of intertwining spatial cracks parted like a tide to open up a path that led directly down into the underground palace it enveloped.

Swoosh!

The Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly swirled in the air before it flew in.

Lin Xun followed after.

He was wearing the Heavenly Star Feather Outfit, which was a gift from the Cloud Weaver Clan. It was a magical treasure that had the miraculous ability to travel through the void and bypass the obstacles of spatial power.

Unfortunately, this remarkable treasure could not withstand the engulfing force of spatial crack.

Therefore, Lin Xun had to closely follow the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly.

The clusters of buildings in the underground palace were all dilapidated. It was unknown when they had been abandoned, but they exuded a feeling of immense age.

Shua!

As soon as the Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly arrived here, it seemed unable to hold back any longer. Its wings fluttered, and it suddenly dove into the depths of the underground palace.

Its speed was so fast that Lin Xun could not react quickly enough.

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xun slowed down his pace, glancing around as he moved forward, and soon his eyes were drawn to a stone tablet in front of the palace.

The tilted moss-covered stone tablet was engraved with a line of ancient writing—

“Sky Burial Tower!” Lin Xun’s expression tensed.

Sky Burial?

What a name!

They were in the Nine Domains Battlefield. It was already unbelievable that a cluster of underground buildings existed at the bottom of the great abyss.

Who would have thought that one of the underground buildings had such an amazing name!

Lin Xun was silent for a moment, and only after confirming that there was no danger in this area did he step into the palace.

Unexpectedly, it was a completely different world inside the palace.

He was greeted by rows upon rows of pavilions, ponds, and other beautiful architecture.

An ancient tree was standing not too far away. It had a strong trunk and branches, vibrant lush green leaves, and was full of vitality. It looked like it was sculpted from emerald or jade.

Huh?

As soon as Lin Xun stepped in, he realized that this should be a secret realm world and it was not as simple as the ancient, dilapidated scenery he saw outside the palace.

It was extremely tranquil, with many palace buildings and ancient buildings nestled among lush bamboo and trees. The scenery might not be the most beautiful in the world, but it was undoubtedly peaceful and quiet.

The place seemed more like a secret hideout where someone lived in seclusion.

Before coming to the Nine Domains Battlefield, Lin Xun had learned that many secret realm worlds were dotted throughout the vast battlefield.

Some secret realms were filled with murderous intent like a land of death, and there was no return after stepping in.

Some were littered with opportunities and earthshaking treasures!

“I wonder whether this is a land of death or a place of great opportunity...”

Lin Xun surveyed the area for a good moment before he finally decided to walk down a stone path.

Along the way, he noticed that every building was named.

Mind Killing Chamber.

Ultimate Dao Pavilion.

Origin Suppressor House.

Law Breaking Land.

Truth Seeking Pavilion.

......

The name of each building seemed to indicate a deeper secret or profound meaning. Lin Xun entered each one by one, only to find that they were completely empty. There was no secret, let alone treasures.

He couldn’t help frowning. Could it be that someone has already entered this place and taken the treasures here in the previous Conflict of the Nine Domains?

He continued onwards, searching along the way, but he still found nothing.

In the distance, a clear babbling stream ran between the ancient buildings like a jade belt.

Lin Xun was about to cross the stream in one step, but he suddenly halted.

The stream was as clear as a mirror, and in it he saw a reflection staring back at him. It was clearly his reflection, but it flew up and brought along with it a wall of water. What impressive power!

Boom!

Moreover, the moment the reflection appeared, it launched a palm strike at Lin Xun. The force of the palm was like a monstrous wave crashing down on the shore, dao light roaming around it.

Lin Xun counterattacked without hesitation. He also thrust out his palm.

With a deafening collision, the reflection shattered into countless streams of water. Then, each stream transformed into another reflection.

Very quickly, the nearby area was crowded with countless reflections that were all identical to Lin Xun.

Lin Xun’s pupils suddenly shrank.

Before he could react, reflections were charging at him from every direction.

But what made him tremble was that—

Not only were the reflections exactly the same as him in appearance, but they also displayed the same grand dao power and martial arts as him.

Boom!

Some performed the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art. Every punch was fiercely powerful, mighty, and domineering.

Some activated the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations. The true dragon roared around them, transforming into symbols of ‘tribulation’ to subdue their opponent.

Some fought with the Heavenly Yuan Six Slashes.

Some activated the Taixuan Sword Qi.

Some...

Each martial arts inheritance was imbued with the aura of great dao law, and the power it unleashed was no different from Lin Xun’s.

He felt like he was fighting against thousands of himself!

But he had no time to think about it and had to fight back.

Rumble!

Dao laws roared across the area, and the collisions shook the world like claps of thunder from the ninth heaven.

After just a short moment, his expression changed again. Those reflections were as strong as him!

Even their spirit power and martial dao will were identical!

How was that possible?

This was the first time that Lin Xun was faced with such a bizarre situation ever since he began cultivating. He was sure that it was not an illusion.

One hour later.

He was injured and coughing up blood.

He had activated all his dao and arts to their full power like never before. Even Saints would be aghast that a cultivator at the longevity path would possess such heaven-defying strength.

Even so, every time he defeated a reflection opponent, countless more would emerge.

Moreover, their combat strength would increase along with his!

Half an hour later.

He was badly wounded and pale-faced.

He wanted to bring out a treasure or weapon to assist him, but he came to find that no external items could be activated on this battlefield. He had to rely solely on his own strength.

“Die!” He became desperate. He threw away all distracting thoughts in his mind, leaving only a burning will to fight.

If Le Mujin was in front of Lin Xun at this moment, then he would definitely fail to block Lin Xun’s attack and be killed on the spot!

One hour later.

Lin Xun was on the verge of exhaustion.

He looked around and saw endless reflections coming at him from every direction. It was impossible to kill them all.

This scene would make anyone despair!

How can I kill them all?

Even if he possessed the strength of the Saint Stage, the reflections would also possess Saint Stage strength, and even if they were killed, they would reappear again the next second!

“I know that this is a battle against myself. It gives me a chance to fight against myself, so...

“How can I admit defeat?!”

Suddenly, he unleashed a long, deafening roar and his dark eyes bore a look of determination.

Boom!

The battle continued.

In his mind-sea, Little Silver was pacing nervously. Ever since the battle started, he noticed that Lin Xun’s state of mind had been invaded by a certain power.

In Little Silver’s eyes, the endless reflections did not exist, nor was there any stream.

He only saw Lin Xun repeatedly launching attacks.

Like a madman!

Little Silver had tried to tell Lin Xun time and time again, but he seemed to not hear him.

Additionally, Little Silver had also attempted to fly out of the mind-sea and awaken Lin Xun, but he could not escape at all.

An invisible force was imprisoning him!

In the Mind Killing Chamber that Lin Xun entered earlier, the empty pavilion suddenly glowed a mysterious dao light.

The dao light faded and projected countless figures of Lin Xun that were in a fierce battle with the real Lin Xun.

It was easier to catch the thief in a mountain than kill the thief in one’s mind!

Hence, this building was called Mind Killing.

Boom!

Three hours later, Lin Xun suddenly came to an abrupt halt in mid-air as if he had an epiphany.

“I don’t have a thief in my mind, so why should I want to kill a thief?” Lin Xun’s voice resounded across the world like a bell.

Boom!

All reflections vanished without a trace as if a storm had swept them away!

Only Lin Xun was still standing tall. Although his face was deathly pale and his aura was weak, he had an indescribable air of superiority around him.

There were no thieves in his mind, only he existed in this heaven and earth!

If there was no such thing as the Bodhi Tree, where could dust and dirt creep?

Boom!

At the same time, the endless dao light shattered in the Mind Killing Chamber, and the entire building fell into silence.

“What a tough test...”

After a while, Lin Xun exhaled a long breath of turbid air and drifted onto the ground. He sat down quietly and fell into deep thought.

The previous scenes flashed across his mind.

Kill the mind thief!

Understanding dawned on him, and immediately he felt an indescribable strong impulse.

He knew that his opportunity to become a Saint was about to come!

“Mind Killing Chamber, Ultimate Dao Pavilion, Origin Suppressor House...the next test should be the power of the Ultimate Dao Pavilion...”

Lin Xun looked back at the way he came.

Rows upon rows of buildings were standing proudly, but each one was completely empty and seemingly contained no deeper secret or mystery.

But now, Lin Xun knew that the mystery of each building had long been hidden in this secret realm world!

If he let his guard down for a second, then the mystery would pounce at him and he would be thrown with an unfathomable test.

For example, there was the ‘mind killing’ test he had undergone just now. It appeared without him being aware and it set off his fighting spirit without him realizing, thereby causing his own state of mind to suffer an ordeal!

“What an interesting place.”

Lin Xun sat down cross-legged and started to meditate.

It did not matter where he was. He should just follow his heart.

He had a good feeling that this secret realm world might be where he would ascend the dao and breakthrough into the supreme Saint Stage!

Meanwhile, in the deepest part of this secret realm, a giant mysterious corpse was floating in a chaos qi-shrouded pond. Every inch of the skeleton shimmered like polished crystal.

The Sky Splitting Demonic Butterfly fluttered and silently landed on the corpse. It beat its wings and produced a cry of joy and excitement.
