The Prodigies War

Chapter 669: Blood Falls Like Rain

In the sky, a fierce battle was in full swing!

In various areas of the Forbidden City, countless eyes were fixed on the earthshaking match.

Clang!

The spear swung across the air, releasing hazy qi. Its jet-black body resembled a graceful black dragon as Lin Xun skilfully and swiftly manipulated it.

Lin Xun showed not a shred of fear even after being encircled by six Cyclic Derivation experts.

His black eyes were as deep and unfathomable as an abyss, but there was an intense fighting spirit blazing in the depths like molten lava.

An illusionary Hornless Ice Dragon floated above the nine heavens, making his figure as ethereal as a divine rainbow and his imposing bearing as majestic as the mountains. His aura of superiority was so strong that it pierced the sky and earth.

The Sacred Combat Art and the rune armament were perfectly integrated. The Heaven Ascension Dwelling in his body was roaring and producing clouds of rosy mist and a shower of auspicious light. The simple and unadorned Dao platform was standing tall, overflowing with Heaven Ascension Sacred Light.

Even though he was in a fierce battle, his every move and gesture was oozing with the power of the great dao and the detached indifference of an immortal. His demeanor was unrivaled.

His opponents’ expressions constantly altered, growing more and more serious and grave. They had only realized how terrifying their opponent was when they faced him!

They couldn’t imagine how a teenager at the Heaven Ascension Stage could possess such heaven-defying powers.

“Kill!”

Qin Xuandu completely lost his sage-like demeanor. Instead, his face was livid and his eyes were blazing with anger. He fought with everything he had against Lin Xun.

On the other side, Zuo Baoying’s footsteps rumbled like thunder as she trod across the air. Her seemingly graceful and slender figure erupted with unbelievable domineering power.

The other four Cyclic Derivation experts also fought with all their strength, and none of them dared to hold back or let their guards down.

Rumble—

The sky seemed to have been broken. Ear-splitting booms and rumbles resounded one after another as if the mountains were colliding.

“So strong! Since ancient times, who has ever seen a monster like Lin the Brave? He is only at the Heaven Ascension stage yet he is fighting against six great Cyclic Derivation cultivators!”

“Once word of this match gets out, even if Lin the Brave loses in the end, he will be crowned king of the younger generation and seen as superior to every person of the same cultivation stage!”

“No wonder he dared to blatantly challenge the Zuo and Qin Clans today. It turns out that he is not arrogant, but he has nothing to fear!”

The spies from the various major forces couldn’t calm their minds and settle their waves of emotions.

They were overwhelmed by Lin Xun’s performance. It was too heaven-defying. He could be regarded as a rare genius since ancient times!

Disappointment mixed with bitter acceptance crossed Qin Ziming’s face. Can we not do anything to the boy even after the Zuo and Qin Clans have joined forces?

His wife Zhao Yunzhi started to regain consciousness, but when she just got up, Prince Yunyong knocked her out once again.

He didn’t want his daughter to cause any trouble anymore and knocking her unconscious was also a form of protection...

“Third Old Zhu, how do you think you are compared to Lin Xun?” Lin Zhong suddenly asked.

Third Old Zhu pondered for a moment before he replied, “If we battle, then I don’t have any confidence in winning.”

His answer made Lin Zhong, Xiaoke and Lin Huaiyuan realize that everything had changed. Previously, Third Old Zhu was considered the most important on Mind Cleansing Peak in terms of strength. Even Lin Zhong, Xiaoke and Lin Huaiyuan were stronger than Lin Xun then.

However, in the future, Lin Xun would be the most important on Mind Cleansing Peak in terms of strength!

They couldn’t help feeling emotional, wondering what sort of adventures and encounters Lin Xun had experienced in the past six months for him to have undergone such earthshaking changes.

“Perhaps, only someone like him can catch the eyes of Jingxuan...” Zhao Tailai muttered.

But Prince Yunyong, Zhao Xu, who was standing next to him, was taken aback and his imagination started to run wild. Could it be that Princess Jingxuan has fallen for that kid?

Zhao Xu felt dizzy!

Zhao Jingxuan was a genius maiden with a transcendent status within the imperial family. Even Zhao Xu didn’t dare to regard himself as her elder in front of her.

“A drawn sword can’t be put back into the scabbard…if this is true, it’s going to be difficult for the Zuo Clan and the Qin Clan....” Zhao Xu fell into deep thought.

Boom!

A wave of terrifying power in the sky drew the attention of everyone.

Zuo Baoying had summoned a sacred-white umbrella, and with a light shake, she sent out endless threads of mist-like silk. It was as though misty rain had shrouded the area.

Instantly, the silk threads blocked the area around Lin Xun. The threads were translucent white and hazy and seemed easy to break out of, but they could instantly and endlessly form again even after being destroyed.

Regardless of how strong someone was, they would be imprisoned inside.

It was a miraculous ancient treasure of the Zuo Clan. It was famous in the Forbidden City, but it was rarely mobilized.

No one expected Zuo Baoying to bring out such a treasure to deal with Lin Xun!

Everyone’s eyes went wide. How is Lin Xun going to fight against that treasure?

Shua~

A golden pagoda floated above Lin Xun’s head, rotating and releasing rays of golden light.

The golden light miraculously swept away the seemingly endless silk threads within a radius of several feet.

It was as smooth and easy as a whale inhaling water.

Did he destroy it like that?

Everyone was flabbergasted.

Zuo Baoying’s expression also dramatically changed, and she almost screamed out loud. How is that possible? What pagoda is that? Why is it so terrifying?

Boom!

Unfortunately, before everyone had time to investigate further, Lin Xun withdrew the pagoda. Then, he flicked his spear and lunged it forward.

“No!” While Zuo Baoying was in a turbulent state of mind, Lin Xun charged towards her.

She frantically tried to dodge.

Pu!

Even so, the spear pierced her shoulder and crushed her muscles and bones. Her beautiful face contorted as she wailed in pain.

However, even though she survived the deadly strike, before she could steady herself, she felt her body stiffen like it had been imprisoned by an invisible force. Her body froze and she couldn’t budge an inch.

Boom!

Almost at the same time, a simple but bright palm crashed down from above her head. A Bi’an shadow emerged from it as it ruthlessly crushed her body.

Under horrified gazes, Zuo Baoying exploded and blood and flesh sputtered everywhere, staining the space a terrifying red shade.

A Cyclic Derivation expert was crushed by a palm. Anyone would feel their soul becoming chilled to the core.

Lin Xun took advantage of the terrifying power produced by the combination of the Baxia Imprisonment and Bi’an Stamp to kill Zuo Baoying and stunned the audience!

“No—!”

“How could that be?”

“Bastard!”

Qin Xuandu and the other Cyclic Derivation cultivators roared, irritated by the unbelievable outcome. Their faces were distorted by rage and their voices shook the world.

Lin Xun had managed to kill one of them under their encirclement. How could they accept it?

For Lin Xun, Zuo Baoying’s death was just the beginning.

Today, he intended to warn the world with the lives of six Cyclic Derivation cultivators that no one could insult the Mind Cleansing Peak Lin Clan!

Die!

The intense battle continued in the sky, becoming fiercer and fiercer.

……

The spies were all struck dumb. They already found it hard to believe that Lin Xun could match the strength of six great Cyclic Derivation experts.

Now, he managed to kill one of the six under their encirclement!

It was too unbelievable!

Lin Xun’s ability had completely exceeded their understanding.

“Young Master…Young Master…he…is so strong!” Lin Zhong was finally able to stutter a few words, but he still couldn’t disguise his astonishment. Or perhaps, he was so shocked that no better words came to his mind.

Xiaoke and Third Old Zhu felt the same way. Lin Xun was like an invincible demon god!

Only Zhao Tailai raised his eyebrows and murmured, “I wonder if the kid could easily kill that woman without the help of the rune armament…”

“If that kid doesn't die, then the Lin Clan will very soon return to the ranks of the high clans!” Zhao Xu, Prince Yunyong, sighed, complex emotions swirling in his heart.

Thud—

Qin Ziming collapsed on his buttocks on the ground, still as a sculpture. He seemed to have fallen into a state of utter bewilderment after the blow.

……

Rain of blood fell from the sky amidst endless roars and anguished screams.

The area seemed to have become a stage for Lin Xun. Wielding the spear, he moved unhindered across the battlefield.

Pu!

Soon, another Cyclic Derivation cultivator suffered a calamity. The spear pierced through his head and hurled it across the air while his headless corpse plunged from the sky most tragically.

Boom!

Soon, a terrifying rumble and collision rang out.

This time, Lin Xun was the one injured. His back was split with a bloody wound, almost damaging his organs.

But at the same time, the spear blasted the two attackers across the air, their bodies severed in half at the waist.

They dropped dead in the air.

The audience had long become silent, speechless from shock. They were just staring blankly at the sky, at the blood-soaked, demon god-like youngster.

The spear in his hand not only drank blood, but also harvested lives!

No one could utter a word because the battle was still going on, and the tragic and bloody scenes indicated that the winner was about to be decided.

Pu!

Another Cyclic Derivation cultivator died. He was about to flee from fear when Lin Xun speared his neck and skewered him to the path thousands of feet in the distance.

No matter how fast he was, how would he be faster than the Hornless Ice Dragon Step?

Moreover, Lin Xun was determined to not let any one of them leave today!

Only Qin Xuandu remained.

The immortal-like cultivator’s face was skewed with panic, helplessness, anger and bitter resentment.

He completely lost his graceful bearing!

He didn’t dare to run away because he knew it was useless. But if he didn’t run away, he also knew that he was no match for Lin Xun by himself.

His situation of despair and helplessness almost drove him berserk!
