The Prodigies War

Chapter 848: Storm Rises in the Four Seasons Pavilion

With one hand, he firmly caught hold of the dazzling, giant halberd blade.

He made it look as easy and effortless as pinching the wings of a butterfly.

Gasps and exclamations rippled throughout the audience.

Everyone’s eyes were wide with disbelief.

The burly man was called Sha Lu. Despite being only one of Sha Liuchan’s subordinates, his fighting strength was obvious to all.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have succeeded in kicking Yue Jianming, a renowned figure in Fire Spirit Province, out of the Four Seasons Pavilion.

Boom!

Sha Lu’s expression changed dramatically. As he unleashed a thunder-like roar, his mighty body erupted with terrifying blood qi, frantically trying to wrench the halberd free.

However, no matter how hard he tried, the halberd wouldn’t budge from Lin Xun’s grip.

From afar, Lin Xun was standing calmly and holding the giant halberd with one hand, while Sha Lu’s face was flushing from wildly struggling. His tall and burly body was tense and blood and qi were frantically circulating his body.

“This is bad!”

Soon, Sha Lu’s expression changed once again. He finally realized the terror of Demon God Lin.

However, just when he was about to abandon the halberd and change his move, Lin Xun flicked his wrist, grabbed the halberd, and swung it down.

Bang!

With a swift strike, Sha Lu was blasted to the ground. His shoulder blade was shattered, and blood spattered everywhere.

He shrieked in pain. Even if he was unparalleled in the Cyclic Derivation Stage, he was no match for Lin Xun. After all, Lin Xun had already set foot onto the absolute apex, and there was a huge difference between them.

Gasps constantly rang out from the audience. The cultivators could tell that if Lin Xun had slashed down with the blade of the halberd, Sha Lu would have been split in half already!

With a roar of murderous rage, he leaped up from the ground. Terrifying light surged around his body, and he charged at Lin Xun once again like he had gone berserk.

Clang!

Lin Xun swung up the halberd, and the blade released a wave of dazzling light like a river of stars. Then, with a rumble, Sha Lu was suppressed once again.

Sha Lu staggered to the ground. The razor-sharp blade of the halberd had cut his chest open. Blood poured out from his wound and gathered into a striking pool of blood, staining the ground red.

“It’s just one strike!” a cultivator cried out in horror.

Everyone was shaken. Demon God Lin had crushed a top figure of the high and mighty Ocean Shark Clan, a tyrannical figure of the Cyclic Derivation Stage, with just a wave of his hand!

“Ah!” Sha Lu let out an ear-piercing scream.

Pu!

With another swipe of the halberd, Lin Xun slashed off his head. From the beginning to the end, he didn’t utter a word. The attack was too clean, direct, and overpowering!

Hua—

Sha Lu’s body transformed into a giant shark, and bright-red blood instantly soaked the nearby ground like a waterfall.

Everyone stood in stunned silence, trembling. They sensed incredibly terrifying killing intent spreading out from Lin Xun’s body and rushing in all directions like a tsunami!

They were standing at the entrance to the Four Seasons Pavilion, where countless cultivators gathered. Who would have imagined that Demon God Lin would slaughter a fierce figure of the Ocean Shark Clan there in such a direct and domineering way?!

Earlier, Sha Lu was extremely unpleasant and arrogant. Not only did he kick Yue Jianming out of the Four Seasons Pavilion, but he also humiliated him without restraint and tried to provoke Demon God Lin to show his face. Many people in the audience thought he had gone too far.

But as soon as Demon God Lin appeared, Sha Lu was killed before he fought back!

In addition to being shocked, the cultivators present couldn’t help but marvel in their hearts. As expected of the famous Demon God Lin, he isn’t only courageous and bold, but also unparalleled in strength!

Yue Jianming was also staring at Lin Xun in disbelief. Then, he stepped forward and said apologetically, “Lin Xun, I’m sorry, if it wasn’t for me...”

Lin Xun interrupted him, “It’s not your fault. Ultimately, they wanted to target me, so I am the one who should apologize for causing you to suffer an undeserved attack.”

Lin Xun smiled. “What’s more, since you regard me as a friend, how can I stand and not help my friend in trouble?”

“Amazing! Demon God Lin is as courageous and fearless as rumor says. But you just killed one of my subordinates. Do you not want to live anymore?” An indifferent and cold voice suddenly rang out from the Four Seasons Pavilion, and a youngster in a golden robe walked out in large strides.

His eyes were narrow and long like knives, and shone with a sharp and threatening light. His hair was long and was an unusual azure blue shade. His every gesture and movement was terrifying like it could smash everything in its way.

It was Sha Liuchan, the current saint of the Ocean Shark Clan!

His appearance caused a commotion and made many cultivators tremble inwardly. Sha Liuchan was a famous and remarkable figure in the young generation of the West Infinity World.

He was hailed as one of the top ten talents in the Fiend Devil Sea for his superb combat power. Rumor had it that he had been practicing the secret arts of the ancient Buddhist sect since he was a child. Unfortunately, he was also known for his violent nature and bloodthirst. It was said that over eight hundred cultivators have died at his hands over the years!

Behind Sha Liuchan was a group of young men and women from the Ocean Shark Clan.

Their faces immediately darkened, and undisguised murderous intent filled their eyes when they saw Sha Lu’s body lying on the street.

Additionally, several figures of young men and women came out of the All Seasons Pavilion one after another, each as extraordinary and dazzling as the other.

There was no need to guess that the young men and women who could freely enter and leave the Four Seasons Pavilion were the genius talents of the West Infinity World!

“The number one successor of the Jade Emptiness Temple, Mu Jianting!”

“Lei Qianjun, the leader of the younger generation of the Great Desolate Lightning Clan!”

Exclamations erupted, and the audience was buzzing again because famous dazzling figures of the West Infinity World were showing up one after another.

It was rare to see any one of them on normal days, but they had now all gathered in front of the Four Seasons Pavilion.

There were also some young women and men whom the audience couldn’t identify by their names, but their bearing and aura were in no way inferior to the rest.

For example, among the successors from the Miluo Palace of the Earth Emperor World was a maiden in a purple dress who stood out among the rest. Her forehead seemed to be shining, and her clear eyes seemed to be full of wisdom. Her body was enveloped in sacred dao light that made her look even more mysterious and ethereal.

Moreover, there were quite a few characters as amazing as the maiden in the purple dress among the crowd!

The radiance of the group of remarkable figures in front of the Four Seasons Pavilion dazzled the nearby cultivators like a cluster of shining stars.

At first, Bai Fengliu’s face was scrunched up in worry, but his eyes suddenly lit up and he instinctively took out a news leaf and began to record the scene in front of him.

The old man was very dedicated to his job. He looked so excited when he discovered some big news and almost danced with joy.

Everything happened within a few breaths.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged.

He even sensed that there were still several extremely tyrannical figures inside the Four Seasons Pavilion who hadn’t shown up but were observing the situation using their spirit sense.

However, Lin Xun was in no mood to care about that. He had enough. From the moment he decided to kill Sha Lu, his state of mind changed. He no longer had any qualms and no longer had any fear!

“I think you guys are the ones who don't want to live anymore!”

Lin Xun stood tall with Sha Lu’s huge corpse on the ground behind him.

His black eyes coldly shifted to Sha Liuchan. “Did you not say you wanted to crush me? I’m standing here in front of you now and giving you a chance to do that!”

He spoke calmly yet it was sonorous and domineering, stirring up the many cultivators.

In the face of so many genius talents, Demon God Lin remained unafraid even if he was standing by himself. His courage was very rare among the younger generation in this world!

“Hahaha, do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have a little bit of fame from deceiving people? You have a death wish!” Sha Liuchan cackled, his blade-like eyes flashing like lightning. Powerful qi rioted around his body, terrifying the audience.

Other genius talents also chuckled. They clearly didn’t take Lin Xun’s words seriously.

A young man in a jade-colored robe even snickered out loud and spoke in a mocking voice, “Say, the world calls you Demon God Lin, but don’t tell me you think you are an invincible Demon God? Inside the Four Seasons Pavilion in front of you right now are talents from all over the West Infinity World yet you have the guts to say that. Do you not think that you’re ridiculous?”

Everyone burst into a peal of laughter.

“He’s not just ridiculous, but disappointing. Previously, I wondered how unusual the so-called Demon God Lin is, and I even wondered if he might have three heads and six arms, but now that I am looking at him, I am disappointed to the core.”

“How can someone like him call himself a demon god? No wonder that he is criticized and despised by so many people. In my view, he is no different from deceiving the world.”

Several men and women remarked, but their words and voices were oozing with obvious contempt and hostility.

Some cultivators in the audience were a little taken aback. Recently, they had heard that many talents in the West Infinity World despised Demon God Lin and thought he didn’t deserve his fame.

Some even announced that they would crush Demon God Lin and destroy his reputation if he dared to show up.

Many thought that was only rumors and listened to it skeptically, but it turned out to be all true!

At that moment, many of the talents’ gazes were tinged with a note of contempt.

As Sha Liuchan watched Lin Xun being criticized in public, his lips curled upwards and he said indifferently, “Lin Xun, I’ll give you a chance. If you kneel and apologize to me now, then I will forgive you for killing Sha Lu. What do you say?”

He undoubtedly wanted to humiliate Lin Xun!

He wanted to trample Lin Xun’s self-esteem and destroy his reputation in front of everyone!

Killing someone awarded you with a useless head, but Sha Liuchan’s words were so malicious.

Lin Xun’s black eyes flashed a cold murderous intent, but before he could speak, the young man in the jade-colored robe who mocked him earlier stepped forward.

“Haha, although that’s a good idea, it's not that fun. Why don’t you let me suppress the so-called Demon God Lin first? By then, I bet he will willingly kneel and beg for mercy and apologize.”
