The Prodigies War

Chapter 562: Golden-Winged Dapeng and Great Snake

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Invisible arrows were fired out like streams of light shuttling through space. There was no color and no fluctuation. It was silent, mysterious and terrifying.

The Dragon Whale Clan experts were shot to death one after another. Some were pierced to death before they realized what happened.

This was because the arrows were too mysterious and silent, making it impossible to capture with the naked eye. They were like invisible assassins appearing out of nowhere to take away unguarded people’s lives.

As Lin Xun clasped the bow, his vision became completely clear. He felt as though he could pry into the secrets of the nine heavens and ten lands while maintaining a state of absolute calmness like he was devoid of emotions.

That was the No-Nonsense Bow.

Lin Xun had obtained it from an assassin called Remnant Wind in Haze City.

The bow was originally sealed in a gray eye, but Lin Xun discovered it by chance and took control of it.

It contained obscure and frightening powers, capable of disturbing a cultivator’s mind and will. Lin Xun wouldn’t have been able to contend against such powers if not for the Little Divine Meditation Art.

Anyone who tried to get close to the bow would sink into a dream-like state. It was as though they had come to a barren gray plain with only a bow suspended under the sky, releasing an icy aura.

Lin Xun still vividly remembered the spectacle he had witnessed back then. The sky was collapsing while an ancient dragon turtle as tremendous as a mountain emerged in the air, shaking the sky and crumbling mountains with its mighty roars.

However, as soon as the invisible bow took shape, the ancient dragon turtle was shot dead and stained the world a ghastly red!

The silent, bizarre and domineering scene produced no resounding noises, but had a chilling deterrent power!

At the time, Lin Xun learnt that the bow was called the No-Nonsense Bow—a mysterious name.

Now, he was hunting down Dragon Whale Clan experts with the bow and killing them with precise accuracy.

The weapon was silent and terrifying.

However, it consumed too much power. Otherwise, Lin Xun would have taken it out at every battle and wouldn’t need to use it with moderation.

It was different now. He had just consumed a fruit of the Treasure Lantern King Ginseng. He was in his peak state with tremendous power pulsing endlessly around his body.

Lin Xun also found it immensely enjoyable. Of course, that was only a split second of thought. He had sunk into a state of absolute calmness, and his emotions didn’t ripple in the slightest.

Soon, under the strong pursuit of Lin Xun, only a few Dragon Whale Clan experts remained. But all of them were trembling with despair and helplessness as though the shadow of death was looming over them.

How would they have thought that a mere human boy who they had almost killed could strike back with such a strong counterattack?

Thud!

Another Dragon Whale Clan expert collapsed to the ground with a bloody hole in his throat and eyes popping out. He died a violent death.

Huh?

But just as Lin Xun was about to continue the massacre and get rid of the remaining enemies, his eyes narrowed and he snapped out of the state of absolute calmness.

He sensed a kind of extreme danger. The dangerous aura was as sharp as a blade. It made his hair stand on its end, his scalp numb and his blood run cold.

It was too unusual!

Without any hesitation, Lin Xun turned around and bolted at full speed. He even mobilized his ultimate strength!

Even so, a dangerous aura still lingered behind him. It was as though a pair of chilling eyes were secretly watching him.

Run!

He gritted his teeth and fled with the help of the Hornless Ice Dragon Step.

“Huh? That guy...suddenly left?”

Lin Xun’s sudden departure left the remaining Dragon Whale Clan experts puzzled. The little demon who killed without batting an eyelid had left without a reason.

They felt a huge weight lifting off of them as they had just survived the catastrophe. But at the same time, they couldn’t help but wonder why the boy would leave like that. It seemed too unreal.

Suddenly, the world dimmed as a shadow blotted out the sky.

They froze to the spot, their eyes widening.

A snake!

However, the snake looked too terrifying. Its head was as huge as a mountain, its blood-colored eyes were like a lake, and its body was as winding as a mountain range.

What kind of snake was that?

The Dragon Whale Clan experts stiffened, and their hearts almost jumped out of their chests while their souls briefly left their bodies. The giant monster had made them feel like jelly and they almost collapsed after getting hit with its aura alone.

A gust of foul-smelling wind suddenly swept the area like a raging storm, engulfing all remaining Dragon Whale Clan experts.

It turned out that the disaster-like storm was just the giant snake’s normal breath!

All remaining Dragon Whale Clan experts were sucked into the snake’s mouth with no chance of surviving.

In a faraway place, Lin Xun inadvertently looked back, only to see a giant snake coiling between heaven and earth. Its body was covered with azure scales, producing an icy sheen. Its head was as huge as a mountain, and its eyes resembled blood-red lakes. It was impossible to judge how big it was!

Si!

Lin Xun inhaled sharply, trembling with shock. He realized that the dangerous aura had come from the giant snake.

He was certain that even if he hesitated the slightest, he would have failed to escape

While Lin Xun was still in a state of shock, a clear and resounding cry resounded throughout the nine heavens and ten lands, whipping up a storm of sand and dust in the desert.

However…

He was astonished to see a fierce bird beast beating its cloud-like golden wings in the sky. They were so bright and dazzling that they appeared to be cast from gold.

It was a giant golden-winged dapeng!

Legend had it that it was one of the savage overlords of ancient times. The dapeng rocked the nine heavens, fed on dragons and snakes, and had once killed true gods!

As it swooped down, it spread out its glistening golden wings and slashed at the giant snake.

The two ferocious creatures fought in the sky like ancient overlords!

Lin Xun watched on, aghast and terrified.

Then, he suddenly turned and bolted. He dared not stay any longer.

He finally truly understood the terror and danger of the Deva Secret Realm. He could lose his life with the slightest carelessness.

That was the so-called coexistence of opportunity and disaster. It wasn’t as simple to win an opportunity. Anyone would first have to bear the risk of losing their lives!

In truth, the Deva Secret Realm was a place full of danger, and anyone able to remain standing in such a place had to be extremely powerful.

The golden-winged dapeng and the great snake were a perfect example. In terms of strength, they were superior to Life Death Stage Kings.

Even the most powerful figures of a great clan would avoid direct confrontation with such terrifying beasts.

Everyone who entered the Deva Secret Realm was only at the Heaven Ascension Stage, so they would no doubt die if they were unlucky enough to run into such creatures!

……

Outside the Return Dominion.

“What? The human boy stormed into the palace and destroyed the mysterious scripture that Lin Lang was about to take possession of?” The patriarch of the Blood Lion Clan flew into a rage.

The Blood Lion Clan experts never thought they would hear such bad news.

The other influential figures in the vicinity couldn’t sit still.

Inside the palace were quaint dao altars, mysterious jade stones and golden scriptures.

They were all great blessings!

It was no wonder that the patriarch of the Blood Lion Clan was so furious and lost control of his anger.

“Haha, I must congratulate your Dragon Whale Clan. If no accidents happen, your clan will win the blessing,” someone sneered.

Immediately, everyone’s expression turned strange. They all knew that, regardless of whether the blessing fell into the hands of the human boy or Saintess Lin Lang, they were only doing the work for the Dragon Whale Clan because there was a group of Dragon Whale Clan experts lying in ambush on the periphery of the Five Elements Holy Island.

With that thought, the Blood Lion Clan patriarch’s face darkened, and he hated the fact he couldn’t rush in to kill the human boy!

If it wasn’t for him, how would so many unexpected things have happened!?

On the Dragon Whale Clan’s side, Granny Sky Kill smiled as she listened. She knew that the blessing was destined to fall upon their Dragon Whale Clan.

However, to everyone’s surprise, the Life Soul Altar on the Dragon Whale Clan’s side suddenly vibrated before the figures of several Dragon Whale Clan experts appeared.

“Patriarch, it’s not good! The Five Elements Holy Island is sinking and on the verge of being destroyed. Even...even the opportunity is gone!” a Dragon Whale Clan expert said through gritted teeth.

Uproar broke out.

Another accident had happened!

“What happened?” Granny Sky Kill asked, frowning. The smile immediately faded from her face.

“It’s that human boy! He and Lin Lang joined forces and destroyed our ambush!”

The Dragon Whale Clan experts were both furious and frustrated to see such a huge opportunity slip away from their hands.

“Human boy!”

Granny Sky Kill’s eyes flashed murderous intent.

The nearby figures’ expressions turned strange. Why is it that boy again?

The Blood Lion Clan experts seemed to have suffered great casualties, and only Saintess Lin Lang was still standing. But it would be all worth it if they won the blessing in the end.

On the contrary, the Dragon Whale Clan experts who had been waiting patiently had unluckily failed and wouldn’t get what they wanted.

Buzz—

The Life Soul Altar vibrated again. Before long, experts of the Dragon Whale Clan were transported back one after another. Every one of them was gnashing their teeth and screaming in anger.

Only then did everyone know that the human boy had been slaughtering Dragon Whale Clan experts to the point that they couldn’t do anything to him.

The atmosphere changed. All the powerful figures couldn’t imagine what kind of young man Lin Xun was. He had repeatedly ruined their plans, but they couldn’t do anything to him. It was too strange!

Granny Sky Kill’s face was dark and unpleasant, looking as furious as the patriarch of the Blood Lion Clan!

“Say, did the human boy also take a part of the blessing on Five Elements Holy Island?” someone suddenly asked.

One sentence made Granny Sky Kill and the patriarch of the Blood Lion Clan even more enraged, and they even ignited their killing intent!

The great blessing that they had already regarded to be in their pockets had fallen into the hands of a human race boy. Not only that, they had lost many clansmen. How would they not be infuriated?

The news surprised everyone in the Return Dominion and caused an uproar.

They became more and more curious as to who the human boy was.

He not only possessed heaven-defying combat strength, but was also terrifyingly fearless. He had slaughtered almost all the descendants of the Dragon Whale Clan and Blood Lion Clan who had entered the secret realm!
