The Prodigies War

Chapter 1543 Omni-Finger

Chapter 1543 Omni-Finger

Behind him stood several hundred cultivators of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, all of whom were supreme experts who had returned alive from the Absolute Hell Secret Realm.

Toady, A’lu, Yue Jianming, Xiao Qinghe, and many other familiar faces were among these people.

Hearing Shaohao’s words, many of them revealed devastated and deeply sorrowful expressions.

“We can only blame our incompetence for not being able to rise to Sainthood in the Absolute Hell Secret Realm, and in turn dragging down Brother Shaohao!” sighed Yue Jianming through gritted teeth.

The others were emotional as well.

They had been at a complete disadvantage while competing for opportunities in the Absolute Hell Secret Realm as the supreme experts of the other eight domains had teamed up to suppress them.

In fact, they were already lucky enough to have been able to leave alive.

The majority of the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s supreme characters had been buried in that place and would never be able to return...

No matter how proud and talented they are, the present heaven prides were all taken over by a desolate feeling every time they thought of this.

Only after entering the Nine Domains Battlefield had they truly realized how cruel, bloody, and perilous this place could be.

The heritages and power that they used to be so proud of, under the oppression of the other eight domains, were utterly useless!

Xiao Qinghe took a deep breath and said in a heavy voice, “Brother Shaohao, we are incompetent. We can’t even fight alongside you, but instead have placed you in this desperate situation. When it comes down to it, let us be the ones to risk our lives!”

When leaving the Absolute Hell Secret Realm, they had thought that it’d be impossible to survive knowing that numerous foreign supreme Saints had been blocking the exit with watchful eyes.

Yet, in such an immensely dangerous situation, Imperial Son Shaohao had still revealed himself and saved them.

How could they not be grateful?

In return, however, Shaohao had been chased and attacked all the way to this desperate situation where he was surrounded by a big group of enemies!

“That’s right, Brother Shaohao! With your strength, you can definitely kill your way out of this. As for us, we’ve already outlived our due fate. Instead of being your burden, we’d rather risk our lives fighting and die without regrets!” shouted many people emotionally.

As cultivators who were able to step onto the supreme path, they were all too proud to willingly become a burden and drag a character of Shaohao’s caliber to death with them.

Shaohao shook his head helplessly. “Everyone, I’m who those old fogeys want dead more than anyone else. This is a dead end for me.”

Then, he took a deep breath and continued with a resolute expression, “Therefore, there is no need to persuade me. If I can exchange my life to pave a path to survival for you all, then my heart will have no regrets even if I’ll die!”

His voice was calm, but his words carried a heroic courage even in the face of death. The others were so touched and sad that their eyes reddened.

“Why? Is it worth it?” shouted a woman in a choked voice.

Shaohao was stunned. After some silence, he stood up. As his violet robe fluttered, a domineering expression surfaced on his pale, handsome face.

And he laughed, “When I decided to save you guys, I never thought about whether it was worth it or not. As for now... What else can I say, the worst possibility is only death, isn’t it?”

Then, he laughed heartily, his eyes shining brightly while his demeanor grew more and more relaxed.

This legendary man had once been unknown for countless years as he hibernated only to dazzle the whole world soon after he had woken up. And now, he chose to fight to the death to break the dead end for many others!

Was it worth it?

He had never even once considered this!

The crowd was silent, unable to calm down with all sorts of emotions swirling in their hearts.

The purple light veil covering this land they stood on was wailing and trembling violently as the attacks of the supreme Saints outside became more and more savage.

They were like a pack of hungry wolves eager to devour their prey!

“Brother Shaohao,” Toady suddenly spoke up with a solemn and severe look that was rarely seen on his face, his voice carrying heartfelt respect. “I always found you unpleasant to the eye, but now, I, Jin Duyi, will make sure to avenge you if I’m able to survive this!”

“And I as well,” said A’lu heavily.

Shaohao was startled before bursting into another hearty laugh, but it was cut off abruptly by a painful grunt. Blood seeped out from the corner of his lips and drew a red string on his face that became visibly paler.

“There’s really not much time left...” sighed Shaohao softly. The aura of the Emperor Scripture above him had begun to dim and seemed close to dissipating.

“If you have the chance, tell your big brother Lin Xun that my greatest regret in this life is that I never got to duel him once, and that he’s the person who I admire the most in this world, but is also the one I refuse to bow to the most!” said Shaohao with an untroubled smile.

His eyes were without a ripple of emotions as he had come to regard death as nothing.

Boom!

An invisible but terrifying Saint power erupted from him and shot up into the sky. The divine violet aura drifting around him suddenly boiled like it had been set aflame!

“Brother Shaohao!”

Mournful cries rang out from the crowd. Everyone’s eyes had gone red. They all gritted their teeth and clenched their fists.

Boom!

The sky was suddenly filled with a rain of purple light as the protective veil finally had too much to bear and exploded.

“Hahahahaha!” Wild laughter echoed through the land.

The supreme Saints from the other eight domains were ecstatic. None of them bothered to hide their greed and killing intent.

This time, not only would they be able to execute a horde of Ancient Wasteland Domain supreme cultivators, but they would also have a chance to get a legendary Emperor Dao Sacred Scripture. Talk about killing two birds with one stone!

Despite this, Shaohao looked calm. Holding the scripture in his hand, he had decided to put his life on the line to open a path to life for the rest.

Whoosh!

Right at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly boomed in the sky.

The group of supreme Saints all stopped in their tracks and squinted. A Message Plume? There are enemies coming?

But they quickly dismissed it and turned back to Shaohao.

They were a group of over a dozen supreme Saints from all eight domains. No matter who the enemies were, they would be seeking death by coming here.

Shaohao also saw this scene and slightly narrowed his eyes.

Suddenly, there was a bellow, “Give it here!”

A brawny middle-aged man with a red beard and hair teleported right to Shaohao and grabbed at the Emperor Scripture in his hand.

Seeing this, the other supreme Saints instantly had a reaction. Their eyes flickered as they were unwilling to be preempted.

They all struck out without hesitation!

“Destroying an Emperor Scripture just to kill these people... Too much of a loss...” sighed Shaohao in his heart while his eyes remained calm.

At his fingertips, the Emperor Scripture that looked like it was made of polished purple jade buzzed and trembled. It needed only one thought from Shaohao to explode.

At that time, even though it was being restricted by the heavenly laws of this battlefield, the power it would generate upon destruction could not be resisted by even supreme Saints.

Shaohao knew this was the only thing that he could do before he died!

Everything happened all at once, all in just a flash. Whether it were the supreme Saints who aimed for the Emperor Scripture, or Shaohao who wanted to sacrifice himself to pave open a path to life, neither of them intended to hold back!

However, there was a finger force that was even faster than them!

Appearing out of thin air from the direction Shaohao was facing, a gigantic finger blazing with dao light ruthlessly pressed down.

Omni-Finger!

There was nowhere it couldn’t reach no matter how far away, as if omnipresent!

Bang!

The brawny middle-aged man, who had been the first to attack, felt like a mountain was ramming at him. The finger force flicked at him, making him fly.

Hmm?

Shaohao’s eyes shone brightly, and he made a decision on the spot to change his mind. As he waved his hand, all of his power burst out.

The other supreme Saints narrowed their eyes when they realized that something was amiss. However, they were fearless and still continued to charge toward Shaohao.

Rumble~

How terrifying was the combined attack of over a dozen supreme Saints?

Even after changing his mind in time and erupting with every bit of his power, Shaohao was still shaken to the point that he bled from all seven orifices and was sent flying.

But when the opponents were about to strike again, a rain of sword qi descended from the sky and stopped them.

Each sword qi had a heaven-shatteringly sharp aura. Together, they put so much pressure on the supreme Saints that the latter scrambled to their hands and feet.

“Who?” Shaohao abruptly looked up.

“Who’s the damned meddlesome bastard?” The supreme Saints were enraged.

“Who’s helping us?” Toady, A’lu, and the Ancient Wasteland Domain experts behind Shaohao subconsciously looked up as well.

Right in the middle of the sword rain, a figure arrived like a space-breaking bolt of light.

Rumble!

Upon his arrival, the void behind him thundered due to the spatial fluctuation, which showed how fast his teleportation had been.

Shaohao was in a daze. It’s actually this fellow?

The Ancient Wasteland Domain cultivators stared at him wide-eyed. It’s him?

Toady and A’lu couldn’t help but shout excitedly, “Big brother!”

The person who had arrived was clad in a moon-white outfit. His long, black hair fluttered in the air, his eyes were dark and profound, and he was shrouded in a streaming dao aura that should have belonged to an otherworldly immortal.

It was indeed Lin Xun who had come at full speed to their aid!

At this tremendously dangerous time when Imperial Son Shaohao was about to sacrifice his life for a chance to save the others, when everyone was grieving and raging...

Who could have imagined that a person whom they thought would never appear would descend from the sky and block all the enemies for Shaohao?

It felt like a dream. Many people even thought that there was something wrong with their eyes.

“An Emperor Scripture is too precious to be wasted on a bunch of old fogeys.” Lin Xun glanced at Shaohao and immediately saw through his plan. “Thanks for saving Toady and the others. Just let me take care of the rest.”

A delighted fire danced in Shaohao’s eyes. He made no objection as he could tell that Lin Xun had become a supreme Saint! And this shocked him greatly as well.

It’s really Lin Xun!

The members of the Ancient Wasteland Domain were all excited. They finally dared to believe that this was real and not a dream.

Which cultivator of the Ancient Wasteland Domain did not know about the supreme legend Lin Xun?

Now that he was here, the situation was bound to change!

At this moment, the faces of the foreign supreme Saints were extremely gloomy. After so much effort had been made to break through that purple barrier, the Emperor Scripture was finally within their reach.

Yet, someone chose this exact time to thwart them. There was no doubt about how furious they were, seeing the murderous auras seething from them.

“You’re alone? And you dare to come here to die?” laughed an old monster in utter rage.

Swish!

As soon as those words rang out, a fiery figure swept through the air and arrived. It was none other than Ruowu!

There was instantly another commotion in the Ancient Wasteland Domain crowd.

Ruowu, who had proved her superb aptitude and talent by becoming supreme Saint around the same time as Shaohao, had also come to their rescue!

“Two supreme Saints? Heh, it still won’t change your ultimate fate, which is death,” said an enemy with a chilling sneer.

However, their response was Ruowu shaking her head and pointing at Lin Xun, saying, “He alone is enough to kill all of you old animals. I’m just here to cheer for him and help clean up the battlefield later.”
