The Prodigies War
chapter-1075

Plop!

Jin Muyun coughed up blood and decisively admitted defeat.

"Why are you throwing in the towel?" Ye Chen frowned. He could feel that Jin Muyun had yet to reach his limit.

The crowd was also stunned and confused.

However, Jin Muyun merely displayed a slight smile before he turned around, left the battlefield, and returned to his dao altar.

While he was moving across the air, a terrifying aura suddenly burst from him and rushed straight into the clouds as the Brahma King Sword in his hand emitted a cry of excitement and joy.

He had experienced a breakthrough?

Everyone’s gazes swiveled over in astonishment.

In the sky, gray and hazy sword-wills emerged one after another and condensed into small, bowl-sized sword flowers as they fell from the air.

A deity seemed to be seated within each sword flower, exuding dreadful auras that seemed capable of subduing the world.

Thousands and thousands of sword flowers drifted from the sky, each containing a mighty deity phantasm. The flowers ultimately enveloped Jin Muyun, surrounding him in a gray haze as an intimidating and majestic presence spread.

At the foot of the mountain, an elder from the Omega Sword Sect shouted ecstatically, "Muyun's Float Slaughter Grand Dao has finally reached the peak Dao Truth stage! "

Everyone gasped in shock.

The Float Slaughter Grand Dao, together with the Silent Void, Supreme Mystery, and Purgatory Grand Daos were known as the Four Wonder Kill Daos. They were all ranked on the Reaching Heaven Dao List and possessed terrifying killing power.

It was why everyone was so shocked to discover that Jin Muyun had experienced a breakthrough that allowed his Float Slaughter Grand Dao to reach the peak Dao Truth stage.

"Ye Chen, I really have to thank you. Due to how excellent you are as a grindstone, I have succeeded in slaying my dao heart demons and experienced a breakthrough in one fell swoop! Hahaha!"

Jin Muyun laughed loudly as his eyes seemed to naturally look down from above. The sight of him surrounded by sword flowers each containing a deity was indeed far too dazzling and extraordinary.

Ye Chen sneered. "Grinding Stone? Won’t it be more correct to say I made you!?"

Jin Muyun proudly declared in a booming voice, "Regardless of how you put it, although I’ve lost three times in the Little Giants List Competition, this breakthrough is enough to leave me with no regrets!"

The other heaven prides had shocked expressions. They couldn't help but wonder if Jin Muyun would be able to defeat Ye Chen, Demon God Lin, and Xiao Cangtian after such a breakthrough.

"He’s indeed a genius who isn’t inferior to Yun Qingbai. There is likely no one here who can match his astounding comprehension ability."

An elder from the Omega Sword Sect sighed, his expression filled with pride.

In the distance, A’lu was clearly unhappy with the remark and sneered, "Old man, how can you be so boastful?"

"Not convinced? Go and find someone who can achieve the same then." The elder was unfazed, appearing very conceited and proud.

These words immediately silenced everyone.

It was true. Since the beginning, not a single person could achieve a breakthrough in battle like Jin Muyun and even create such a grand phenomenon.

A’lu was lost for words. However, there was no way he would admit defeat like this. He whined and said, "Demon God Lin, your brother has already helped you until this point. How can you still remain indifferent?"

Everyone rolled their eyes. This barbarian was simply ridiculous and unbelievable. How could he ask for help in a verbal battle? Did he not know shame?

"Demon God Lin? That useless fart! How can he compare with Muyun?" The Omega Sword Sect elder disdainfully spat on the ground.

Rumble!

At this moment, however, an indescribable, vast aura rushed upwards from the peak Lin Xun was at and scattered the clouds.

Amidst the thunderous rumbling, the ancient and majestic cries of a dragon spread from the scattered clouds in waves.

Moohh~

In an instant, the wind rose and the clouds surged as an endless, terrifying dragon pressure spread across the land.

Everyone stiffened as the pressure constricted their minds and bodies. Their spirits trembled uncontrollably as unexplainable terror rushed out from deep within their hearts.

The vision of a true dragon emerging from the clouds appeared in everyone’s sights. The dragon breathed clouds and mist, and it was partially hidden by the haze. Primal chaos qi rose from it like steam as it roamed the cosmos.

It was too big to be measured.

Its presence was too large to be imagined!

Gasps sounded in rapid succession. Everyone was utterly shocked and terrified by the scene.

Primal chaos qi, the appearance of a true dragon, and the cries of a dragon sounding across the nine heavens and ten lands!

Such a phenomenon was nothing short of earth-shaking!

Rumble~

The presence of a true dragon enveloped the sky, causing the wind and clouds to churn violently as the phenomenon grew increasingly grand.

"AHH!"

In the air, Jin Muyun suddenly shrieked as if he had been struck by lightning. He staggered and fell due to the oppressive pressure, crashing onto the peak in a sorry state.

The sword flowers and deities around him dimmed and began to disintegrate.

Of course, it was only the vision scattering and didn’t have any actual consequence. However, it still made Jin Muyun furious.

Just earlier, he had been filled with glee and pride and was happily basking in the limelight.

However, before he could fully enjoy this feeling of being admired, he was struck down from the air and his phenomenon was scattered. How could he possibly not feel angry?

Who is it?

Who!?

His eyes immediately homed in on the source of the true dragon phenomenon.

"Demon God Lin!"

Jin Muyun's head buzzed loudly as if he had been hit on the head by a stick. A mix of indescribable sullenness and grievance welled up in his heart.

Why...why is it him again!?

Meanwhile, the true dragon phenomenon faded along with the terrifying dragon presence and everything returned to normal.

Only then did everyone return to their senses as their gazes swiveled toward a certain location in unison.

Demon God Lin!

He was the one who triggered the phenomenon!

All the cultivators’ expressions became exceptionally entertaining sights, containing shock, dismay, jealousy, agony, bitterness, and a sense of loss.

Especially the Omega Sword Sect cultivators, whose faces were striped with green and white as they nearly coughed blood in frustration. It's that damned Demon God Lin again!

Even A’lu was stunned. His voice jumped an entire octave as he said, "My god, what an awesome brother. You readily dished out the humiliation the moment I opened my mouth to ask for help. I’ve decided, you will be my eldest brother in the future!"

He placed a hand on his hip and pointed at the elder from Omega Sword Sect while grinning almost maniacally, "Old man, what do you have to say for yourself now? Isn’t it embarrassing? If Demon God Lin is a useless fart like you said, what are you then? Pui!"

Toward the end, he violently spat on the ground.

His arrogant mannerisms made the elder’s face turn green with rage. How could he have anticipated that the blasted Demon God Lin would also achieve a breakthrough?

The elder’s face felt hot as recalled his earlier words and almost wanted to rip his hair off.

The shock value of Lin Xun's breakthrough was indeed through the roof and left even the likes of Xiao Cangtian and Ye Chen completely speechless.

Unlike Jin Muyun, Lin Xun had yet to be defeated. Moreover, even the phenomenon he caused had utterly crushed Jin Muyun’s.

At this moment, even Jin Muyun felt as if he would never mentally recover from this.

After losing miserably and being beheaded by Lin Xun, Jin Muyun finally struggled free from the death-like experience and achieved a breakthrough. He thought that he could finally wash away his shame. Who could have imagined that he would instead be one-upped by Lin Xun again...

Jin Muyun even began to suspect that Lin Xun was his natural enemy. How else could his unlucky streak be explained?

Meanwhile, Lin Xun awoke from his meditation. When he opened his eyes, everyone seemed to see a vision of a dormant giant dragon awakening from its slumber!

"True Dragon Grand Dao!" Several people’s hearts shuddered.

"He has indeed comprehended it. However, I didn't expect him to achieve it so soon..." Zhao Jingxuan pondered as her eyes seemed to shine and ripple.

Others displayed varying expressions.

The True Dragon Grand Dao was also ranked on the Reaching Heaven Dao List. Moreover, its rank was extremely high.

What puzzled everyone, however, was that the dao should be unique to the True Dragon Clan. It was akin to a taboo subject to the True Dragon Clan, so how had a human learned it?

Could Demon God Lin have some relation to the legendary True Dragon Clan?

True Dragons, like Immortal Phoenixes, were near-legendary existences who rarely appeared even in the ancient era.

Some even doubted that the True Dragons and the Immortal Phoenixes existed!

On the Immortal Sacred Mountain, the most likely person to have any relation to the True Dragon Clan was Yan Zhanqiu.

Although this apex expert from Spirit Treasure Holy Land was a direct descendant of the Yan Clan, his mother’s side was rumored to have ties to the True Dragon Clan.

"He’s definitely not a descendent of the True Dragon Clan, but a despicable thief!" Yan Xuqiu was furious. His expression had turned exceptionally cold and ugly.

He was the only one who knew that Lin Xun had no relation with the True Dragon Clan. The True Dragon Grand Dao he had obtained originated from the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations inheritance!

At this moment, Lin Xun rose to his feet and said to Jin Muyun, "Sorry, I didn’t mean for this to happen. I just couldn't control myself..."

Couldn’t control yourself?

Who would believe that!?

Jin Muyun icily snorted and looked away. He was afraid that if he looked a single second more, his mind and heart would destabilize and a shadow would appear in his heart again...

"Hahaha, this is the best. Lin Xun, remember to ruthlessly subdue Xiao Cangtian!" Ye Chen laughed heartily.

It was then that it dawned upon everyone that the fifth duel was over and the sixth duel was next.

Moreover, it was also the final duel of the Little Giants List Competition!

If Xiao Cangtian won, he would become the first place with his record of two wins and one draw.

Likewise, if Lin Xun won, he would achieve a perfect, undefeated record!

"Demon God Lin will likely take first place in the Little Giants List Competition..."

Many older-generation experts had complicated expressions. Now that Lin Xun had achieved a breakthrough in his dao, even Xiao Cangtian would likely have a low chance of victory.

Everyone else had similar expressions.

The Little Giants List Competition brought together top experts from the four great worlds of the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Numerous peerless individuals from various ancient orthodoxies participated, resulting in a much higher level of participants than ever before.

In the end, Lin Xun, a factionless young man from a lower plane, fought his way through many obstacles and stepped over the bodies of numerous heaven prides to become one of the participants in the final duel.

This...was something no one had expected!

It was like an impossible miracle playing out in front of their eyes and was being witnessed by them.

However, the outsiders’ thoughts no longer mattered because Xiao Cangtian had already arrived in the arena to face Lin Xun.

The final showdown was about to begin!
