The Prodigies War
chapter-1087

Stupefied!

This word perfectly encapsulated the feelings of Gou Yangjia and other kings.

After experiencing the overwhelming shock and surprise, even if they had a stronger dao mind than ordinary people, they were still shaken to the core. Their minds continued to be bombarded by the unbelievable scenes they had seen.

A young man at the Cyclic Derivation Stage borrowed the forbidden power of Star Chess Sea and used it as his own. It was as though an ant had transformed into a mighty dragon of the sky, slaughtering king-level experts like he was tearing up a painting! Who would believe that?

Most frighteningly, even their Saint treasure was suppressed under the young man’s power!

At this moment, Lin Xun, bathed in dreamy starlight, resembled a true demon god, the ruler of this side of the world and radiated boundless power.

Who would believe that he was only at the Cyclic Derivation Stage?

Run!

Without any wavering, Gou Yangjia and the others made the decision.

Mo Zhen had died. Zhong Wenyuan had also died. They would also meet with disaster if they didn’t run soon!

As king-level experts who also were armed with great killing weapons such as Saint treasure, they had to flee for their lives. This matter would undoubtedly become the greatest shame in their lives.

But who cares? They had to do that to protect their lives!

“Do you want to run? The only path left for you is to be buried here!”

Amidst an indifferent and ice-cold voice, Lin Xun attacked.

Boom!

He activated the Bi’an Stamp and launched it from the sky like the stamp of heavens, entwined with the forbidden power.

Gou Yangjia was frantically running when the feeling of imminent danger flooded his heart. Letting out an enraged roar, he summoned the Great Blood Prison Stamp.

But it was futile. The Bi’an Stamp inched closer and closer to him, shattering all space around him. Even the Great Blood Prison Stamp was violently vibrating under the impact.

Unable to bear the tremendous power, the Great Blood Prison Stamp was forced into the depths of the sea with a loud splash.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun was already speeding towards another king-level expert.

Within three thousand miles of this sea territory, Lin Xun, who controlled the forbidden power, had undisputedly become the ruler.

If one wanted to run away, one had to ask for his permission first!

If not, even a Saint would struggle to escape.

This was no exaggeration because over the years there had been real Saints lost in the Star Chess Sea, unable to find their way back and very likely to have met with misfortune.

Despite Lin Xun only being able to manipulate power less than one-thousandth of what the Zhoutian Star Dipper Diagram was capable of, that was more than enough to deal with a few king-level experts.

He would have put an end to the battle long ago if he hadn’t been obstructed by several Saint treasures.

……

Dong!

A ray of starlight shot downwards, lashing the Purple Azure Luminous Umbrella with a rhythm that sounded like a beating drum.

The king from the Spirit Treasure Holy Land trembled all over as if his body was trampled by a wild stampede of thousands of horses. He couldn’t help but grimace and grunt at the boundless pain.

However, just when he was about to dodge the torture, Lin Xun had already reached him.

Pu!

With just one punch, his body ruptured open and he died with spite, even his primordial spirit failed to escape in time.

……

Clang! Clang! Clang!

A golden jade disk desperately tried to fight back the waves of forbidden power coming from all directions, constantly causing sharp and clear clangs to ring in the air and divine lights to fire everywhere.

A moment later, the golden jade dish was blasted into the sea.

At the same time, the king of the Azure Sea Sect’s voice trembled as he begged for mercy, but in the end, Lin Xun still killed him without hesitation, destroying both his body and spirit.

……

Only the king of the Heaven Axis Holy Land remained. He was currently trying to break down the wall of starlight blocking his way using the Suppress Heaven Ruler.

However, the Saint treasure that claimed to be able to suppress the heaven, could not even dent the wall made up of invisible forbidden power.

It was hopeless!

However, that was not because the Suppress Heaven Ruler was not strong, but that the several king-level experts were not able to bring out his true power.

In the end, he also was killed, dying with endless bitterness.

……

The turbulent seawater, the crumbling and collapsing sky, the starlight dancing wildly between heaven and the earth…

When everything returned to calmness, only Lin Xun was still standing.

He was standing on an isolated island, his moon-white clothes billowing behind him and his jet-black hair dancing in the wind. He scanned the sea with his dark eyes.

From the first batch, he killed eight kings.

In the second batch, he eliminated another six!

This was already a formidable record that would astonish the world.

But Lin Xun showed not a tinge of joy or proudness.

This was because he knew that this only proved the power and terror of the Zhoutian Star Dipper Array, and it had little to do with ability.

At best, he was just borrowing someone else’s power to fight.

However, it still felt great to get rid of the bunch of king-level experts. He was able to vent the hatred and anger that had been accumulating in his heart.

“Unfortunately…” Lin Xun weighed up the situation and concluded.

All the Saint weapons including the Omega Sword, Longevity Palace, Great Blood Prison Stamp, Purple Azure Luminous Umbrella, Suppress Heaven Ruler and the Golden Jade Disk had been suppressed into the bottom of the sea, but he wasn’t able to refine them there.

The seabed was the core forbidden area of the Zhoutian Star Dipper Array. Not only did it hold supreme secrets and mysteries, but it was filled with complex and terrifying powers.

Although Lin Xun had obtained the inheritance of the Zhoutian Star Dipper Diagram, his current strength did not allow him to enter the bottom of the sea.

Now, the six Saint treasures were imprisoned there, constantly charging around violently to try to break free.

Unfortunately, they were like fish caught in a net. The only way to escape was to rip apart the net!

This was what Lin Xun was upset about. He thought that he could use the opportunity to refine some of the Saint treasures but it seemed hopeless now.

“However, that’s still fine, at least each of the sects has lost one of their precious Saint treasures, which is no doubt a heavy blow to every single one of them.” Lin Xun said thoughtfully.

Then, he sat cross-legged on the ground and began to meditate to restore his strength.

……

On the shore of Star Chess Sea.

As time went by, the cultivators from various major sects who were so confident to hear back good news started to shuffle impatiently.

“What’s going on? Why haven’t we heard anything?”

Gou Yanzhen lost his patience and he roared angrily, “Don’t tell me that they can’t even kill a little bastard at the Cyclic Derivation Stage with a Saint treasure!”

The experts from other sects also wrinkled their brows, puzzled by this.

In the first batch, eight kings were dispatched, but they still hadn’t heard back anything.

In the second batch, another six kings were dispatched, and each of them was armed with a Saint treasure. But they were still waiting to hear back from them.

How could they stay calm?

“Elder Uncle Ma, do you think something unexpected happened?” Kong Lin asked with a frown.

“Shut up!” Ma Yuanqing, who had been filled with confidence, furrowed his brows for a rare moment and seemed to be in a very bad mood.

Clearly, Ma Yuanqing was also a little anxious about not hearing back anything for a long time, and could no longer stay as calm as before.

There wasn’t only an atmosphere of doom and gloom on the Omega Sword Sect’s side, but also around other sects. Everyone’s faces were overcast and a dark cloud was hovering over their hearts.

Since ancient times, the Star Chess Sea had been regarded as a forbidden land that was steeped in terror. Not even Saints dared to set foot there.

The waves of restriction around the sea had already subsided so there should be no other threat but the dispatched kings had yet to return!

“They must have run into an accident. Otherwise, even if they can't find Lin Xun, they would at least report back the situation.” Someone murmured, looking grave.

“Almost three hours have passed, do we have to wait like this forever?”

Some people also lost their impatience and could not bear this uncertainty.

“Argh! They just have to kill one Lin Xun, but why haven’t they succeeded?! Could that kid really be invincible?”

Some people gnashed their teeth so hard that they almost shattered them.

Suddenly, there was a tumult of shouting on the shore.

Not to mention Gou Yanzhen, Yu Lingkong, Li Qingping, Kong Ling and other young people, even the old monsters of the king stage donned cloudy expressions.

What happened in the depths of the Star Chess Sea?

Many old monsters carefully surveyed the sea once again. Although they could not feel a ripple of restriction power, the calmer and more peaceful it was, the more indescribably uneasy they felt.

Huh?

Suddenly, Gou Yangxiu, an old monster of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan, narrowed his eyes and uttered, “Lin Xun? How can that boy still be alive?”

The others also detected movement on the sea surface in the far distance. A figure was treading across the water alone, clothes blowing elegantly around him.

“It is indeed him!” Gou Yanzhen thundered, gnashing his teeth. Even if Lin Xun was turned to ashes, he could still identify him from his infuriating scent.

“The other kings haven’t returned yet, so how would that boy appear before them? How is this possible?”

Everyone looked bewildered.

Could all the king-level experts who have entered Star Chess Sea fail to find that kid?

Unbelievable!

But very quickly, the restlessness and agitation turned into irrepressible murderous intent as they watched Lin Xun approach the shore.

They had waited too long to kill Lin Xun!

They had waited from yesterday until now and their patience had long been worn down. They couldn’t wait to release all their pent-up emotions.

“Little bastard, I’m surprised that you dare to show up. Since you have chosen to come here then you must be prepared to die!” Gou Yanzhen thundered, his face twisting into a baleful sneer.

“Lin Xun, you are really brave enough to show up here. I thought you would hide in this sea for the rest of your life and never show your face again,” Yu Lingkong spoke coldly.

“Elder Uncle Ma, hurry kill that person!” Kong Ling couldn’t wait to see Lin Xun being torn apart.

In the distance, Lin Xun came to a stop a thousand feet away from the shore, gaze cold and unfathomable.

With his eyes sweeping the crowd, he remarked, “I have to say your courage is commendable since you all are still waiting here. I hope you can continue to wait later.”

Many kings frowned at his words, sensing a deeper meaning within them.

“So arrogant! After we kill you, why would we continue to wait any longer?” Gou Yanzhen snapped.

“So noisy.” Lin Xun spat two words from his lips and without another glance at them, he flicked his sleeve.

A blindingly resplendent arc of stars descended from the sky like a guillotine of heaven.

Pu!

Gou Yanzhen responded with a sinister smile but before he had time to counterattack, his body exploded and his spirit was annihilated. He died without even knowing.

So abrupt!

Then, there was utter silence. Everyone’s pupils shrank. No one could react in time. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Gou Yanzhen was killed!

But they were most horror-stricken by the fact that Lin Xun demonstrated powers beyond the scope of the Cyclic Derivation Stage!
