The Prodigies War

Chapter 1951: Restlessness In the Air

From Lin Xun, an invisible devouring force rumbled as it spread in all directions.

The nearby terrain was instantly reduced to dust, and the void collapsed into a huge vortex that kept expanding.

“Damn it, what kind of power is this?! Why can’t we resist it?!”

Piercing screams resounded as the fleeing Primordial Dao Court disciples felt like a giant hand had suddenly clutched them from behind. It fiercely dragged them back, causing them to freeze mid-flight.

Rumble~

The whole region trembled as the air all turned into a vortex of terrifying devouring power. The place where Lin Xun was standing had now become a black hole in the starry sky.

Xin Rujia’s group struggled desperately, but it was as if they were trapped in a quagmire and swimming against the current. On their expressions was only strain and horror.

What grand dao power is this?!

Right at this moment, Lin Xun opened his arms and executed Taixuan sword qi, Heavenly Yuan Slash, Heavenshaking Punch, Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations, Great Diffusion Void Breaker Finger, and his other skills all at once.

The area was plunged into chaos and turbulence. Smoke and dust filled the air as blazing lights enveloped everything.

One was slashed by the numerous sword qi and shrieked painfully.

One was smashed by fist power and knocked flying.

One saw their treasure being shattered by the Broken Blade, and the backlash caused them to bleed from seven orifices.

As Lin Xun’s opponents suffered damage in various ways, these bloody scenes happened almost at the same time in a split second.

When the smoke and haze dispersed, and the dust settled,

Other than the scattered life talismans all around the field, only Xin Rujia was left standing. The rest of his companions had been eliminated from the competition!

Jintian Xuanyue felt an uncontrollable shock. Young Master…just keeps getting stronger and stronger!

Meanwhile, Xin Rujia looked like his soul had flown off. His expression was bleak, and his eyes were blank.

He mumbled, “No, this is impossible… How can a person be this strong? You must have cheated, you must have used some taboo secret art!”

His accusation ended with a roar as his expression suddenly became ferocious like he had gone mad.

“So many Emperor experts are watching from the outside world. If I really cheated, then how can I still be standing here?” said Lin Xun blandly.

“No, you definitely cheated!” shrieked Xin Rujia, his eyes reddening as he couldn’t accept this.

His group of more than ten people were all core disciples of Primordial Dao Court. Any one of them was a dazzling talent that could be considered a giant in any state of the Primordial Chaos World.

Yet, they had been routed, and their whole situation now was nothing but an utter wreck.

This made Xin Rujia bleed inside. How could he just accept it?

Lin Xun already couldn’t bother with him anymore.

Swish!

The Broken Blade swept out with a cold flash. Just a few breaths later, Xin Rujia was beaten senseless and also eliminated.

Before he was automatically transported away, Xin Rujia let out an unwilling and furious shout, “You must have cheated! You are a despicable cheater!”

In the outside world, the Emperor judges had fallen into a rare silence. Even with their eyesight and experiences, their emotions still fluctuated and couldn’t be calmed after they witnessed Lin Xun’s absolute domination in the battle against many opponents.

Cheating?

Simply impossible!

With so many of them watching, how could they possibly allow cheating to occur?

However, this was precisely the reason why they realized how terrifying Jin Duyi was.

Just by himself, he had conquered everything in an unstoppable fashion, rendering the Primordial Dao Court disciples helpless from the beginning. This was undoubtedly beyond astonishing!

Only after a long time did Taishu Hong comment emotionally, “Even if we take all Saint-Kings in the nebula into consideration, Jin Duyi can still be considered a top-tier expert. Those who can rival him in Mythical Huang Secret Realm are certainly few and far between.”

All the other judges, including Emperor Fire Spirit and Flaming Sky Demon Emperor, had nothing to refute this.

In front of the absolute truth, even they had to admit that they had indeed underestimated this young man named Jin Duyi!

Xia Xinglie drained another cup of wine and winked at Xia Xiaochong, “Girl, what do you think of Jin Duyi?”

Xia Xiaochong said crisply, “If he’s Brother Lin Xun, then of course he’s the most formidable in the world! If he’s not, then just pretend I didn’t say it.”

Xia Xinglie burst out laughing.

……

“Let’s go somewhere you can recuperate in peace.” Lin Xun took Jintian Xuanyue and left the battlefield after crushing Xin Rujia’s group.

Less than two hours ago, he had just successively defeated Wu Huang’s group and then trapped Tu Qianjue’s party with a grand array and taken them out.

Even when he had been surrounded by Zu Feiyu, Yan Yurou, and Tu Qianjue afterward, he had been able to break out of their siege without danger.

Until now, after having vented his rage on Xin Rujia’s group, Lin Xun finally felt a wave of exhaustion even though he was not injured.

He had a premonition that from today on, he would spend the time in this place with many gazes on him!

Sure enough, on this same day, his feats swept through the Mythical Huang Secret Realm like a storm, raising an uproar of shock and discussions.

No one had imagined that the number one ranker of Cloud State’s Dao Debate would be such a menace. All alone, he had thwarted the sieges of the core disciples of the Great Six Courts!

“Jin Duyi?”

When Ling Hongzhuang heard of this, she had just crushed a group of opponents and captured over a dozen life talismans. The news surprised her a little.

“Another one who can take my punch, so it seems. Let’s add him to my to-battle list.” A glint flashed in her eyes.

……

“Junior Brother Tu Qianjue was leading a group of people, but they weren’t his match… That man should be powerful enough to compete for the top three of All Heavens Saint-King Rankings…” pondered Huangfu Shaonong.

There was always a mountain higher as there were always strong people. He was well aware that this time in the Mythical Huang Secret Realm, there were many deeply hidden supreme freaks.

Such as Yue Ruhuo and Zhi Bai.

The only thing he hadn’t expected was that a place like Cloud State had also produced such an astonishing talent.

“If I come across him, I would actually like to test his depths.” Huangfu Shaonong’s eyes surged with a divine light, his figure as towering as a deity.

……

“My bro is still as ferocious as ever…” sighed the hemp-clothed Xuan Jiuyin.

Originally, he had thought that if he could meet Lin Xun in the Dao Debate Assembly, then they could have a spar to see who was stronger.

Now, however, he had given up on this idea.

……

“That damned bastard!”

When Kong Zhao of Primordial Dao Court learned about this, his face instantly turned frosty.

He couldn’t forget how he had been wounded by Lin Xun with a single blow outside the mountain gate of Mythical Huang Dao Court before the assembly.

He considered this a disgrace!

What he had never thought of was even Xin Rujia and a group of his fellow disciples had all fallen at the hands of the same person!

“If I don’t defeat you, how will us disciples of Primordial Dao Court face the world?” A murderous rage took over Kong Zhao’s heart.

At the same time, Zu Feiyu and Tu Qianjue had already enacted their plan. They contacted their fellow disciples to band up and start an operation against Lin Xun.

“Brother Jin is facing big trouble,” Lu Dubu let out a long sigh, his face gloomy.

Next to him, Xie Yuhua, Wang Tu, Su Muhan, and Leng Xiujia wore different expressions.

They had all witnessed Lin Xun’s performance at the Dao Debate Contest of Cloud State as they had all come from there. However, never had they even dreamed that the guy who had always towered over them would be strong to this degree in battle!

Lu Dubu mused, “I fear that the participants from Heaven and Earth, Primordial, and All-Demon Dao Courts have already harbored a grudge against Brother Jin, and that’s just the ones we know of. It’s hard to determine whether there are still more people targeting him.

“Everyone, do you think we should come to his aid?”

The question caused Xie Yuhua and the others to fall silent in hesitation.

“Aid him? More like trying to seek death. That fellow is a public target already, and what do we have to go against those terrifying characters?” said Wang Tu without thinking. “I think it’s best to let him fend for himself.”

Su Muhan said, “Brother Lu, didn’t you invite Jin Duyi and Jintian Xuanyue to team up at first? But they’ve never given us a clear answer.”

He took a deep breath and continued, “Moreover, it’s simply impossible to fight against those behemoths’ core disciples with our strength. If we go there to help, it’s highly likely that we’ll all suffer along with them, which is unwise.”

“Looks like everyone shares the same opinion,” concluded Lu Dubu in a heavy voice. “Then as you all wish.”

Xie Yuhua was going to say something, but when she saw this, she lamented in her heart and immediately lost interest in speaking.

Suddenly, the quiet Leng Xiujia turned and walked out.

“Brother Leng, where are you going?” Lu Dubu couldn’t help but ask.

“I heard that Jin Duyi was targeted because he rescued Teng Yichen and Gui Shanxing. Now that he’s in trouble, I’m going to do what I should,” replied Leng Xiujia without looking back before vanishing into the distance.

Seeing this, the expressions of everyone else clouded over.

“He let his emotions get to him. I want to see his regret when he gets eliminated for getting involved with Jin Duyi!” snorted Wang Tu.

“Everyone has their own path. It’s better for us to focus on our own business,” sighed Lu Dubu.

He knew the wisest choice was not going to aid Jin Duyi, but he ultimately felt bad and uncomfortable.

It was as if…he had lost something after making this choice.

“Brother Jin is a man of great fortune. Let’s hope that he can hold on until the end…” muttered Xie Yuhua.

As the entire Mythical Huang Secret Realm became restless, a cave was dug deep into a huge gully where not an inch of grass grew.

The cave mouth was covered in a restrictive array that concealed presence.

Inside the cave, Jintian Xuanyue was consuming pills to heal her wounds, while Lin Xun was meditating to recover his energy while studying the jade slip left by Senior Brother Xuan Kong.

The atmosphere was quiet, as if isolated from the world.

The two were oblivious to the storms brewing outside.

As Jintian Xuanyue recuperated, she suddenly said softly, “It would be great if we can keep hiding here until the end of this competition…”

Lin Xun couldn’t help but smile, his eyes deep. “There are definitely more than a few who share the same thought as you, but hiding is not the way to go. This secret realm is only so big, and there is no time limit, so this assembly won’t end until enough people are eliminated.”
