The Prodigies War
chapter-1122

“Slash!”

In the sky, Lin Xun advanced without any obstruction, and the Broken Blade resembled a dazzling lightning bolt. It was not only fast, but also erupted with indestructible destructive power.

The more he fought, the stronger he became!

Jin Xiaoming’s face turned more and more grave. Despite the fact that he had already activated the blood-colored spear to its limit and that every swipe of it was enough to take the life of a genius figure of his generation, he failed to ward off the attacks of the Broken Blade.

“How is he so strong?”

Jin Xiaoming was frightened and angry. His blood and qi tumbled frantically around him. He couldn’t believe that someone who was only ranked first on the Little Giant’s List could compete with him, an absolute apex giant.

“Slash!”

However, Lin Xun’s fighting spirit soared once again and dazzling azure dao light enveloped him. He advanced towards Jin Xiaoming like an invincible demon god.

His every slash contained boundlessly terrifying power.

It could slash down thousands of stars.

It created the spectacle of the moon filling the night sky and the sun shining brightly upon the universe.

It had the force of turning everything to nothingness and silencing heaven and earth.

It contained the wonder of birth and death!

The Heavenly Yuan Six Slashes was brought to its full majesty by the water dao, and its power was further amplified by Yazi’s Rage and Sacred Combat Arts.

Slashes of brightness were everywhere across the world.

In that oppressive atmosphere, Jin Xiaoming gradually fell into a disadvantaged situation. Not only did he feel strained and exhausted, but he was also struggling to counterattack.

Clang!

A moment later, following an earth-shattering collision, he convulsed like he had been struck by lightning and coughed up a mouthful of blood. His complexion grew deathly pale.

The audience was flabbergasted. Lin Xun had already astonished them previously when he suppressed Jin Xiaoming’s doppelganger, but now, he demonstrated the power to suppress the real Jin Xiaoming!

“Amazing!”

Mi Hengzhen’s eyes lit up. The battle between Lin Xun and Jin Xiaoming ignited a battle desire in him.

Rumble!

In the sky, Jin Xiaoming was ashen-faced and as silent as a grave. He flicked his sleeve and the golden chariot that was imprisoned on Thousand Streams Mountain suddenly flew into the air, spewing out colorful divine lights that filled the world.

With a flash, Jin Xiaoming leapt into the golden chariot. Instantly, he was shrouded in a sacred aura and his energy soared in power.

He was not attempting to flee but instead using the chariot to launch a full-power attack!

Bang!

The Broken Blade approached in a fast attack, glowing as bright as day. However, dao runes emerged across the battlefield in a scene of hundreds of ancient evils and effortlessly dispelled the attack.

Jin Xiaoming stood proudly on the treasured chariot, utterly coldly, “This chariot is a Saint treasure called the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot. It is crafted from the souls of hundreds of evil creatures from ancient times, and it is inscribed with the laws of the Saint path. Since you have forced me to resort to it, you can die with no regret now.”

Everyone gasped.

The power of Saint treasures differed from one another, but they were all heaven-defying strong. Cultivators of the Cyclic Derivation Stage were unable to unleash the true powers of a Saint treasure, but even a slice of its tremendous power was enough for someone to run wild in the world!

Rumble!

The Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot rumbled across the void in the direction of Lin Xun, casting vivid images of ancient evils everywhere. The aura of the Saint Path rushed into the sky, providing the perfect backdrop for Jin Xiaoming who looked like a true killing god!

Everyone’s countenance changed as they struggled to breathe.

If Lin Xun did not hold a Saint treasure, then he would have found it tricky to deal with that killing attack.

But this posed no threat to him at all!

Buzz!

The Nameless Pagoda soared into the sky, and its octagonal body released endless light like the rays of the midday sun.

Suddenly, the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot slowed to a halt.

Two different Saint treasures displayed their mighty powers, competing with each other in midair, causing the space to distort and crumble around them and leaving multiple thousand-foot long cracks.

The place was gorgeous yet saturated with the aura of terror and destruction that made many people feel chills from just looking at it from a distance.

Clang!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun launched another attack. The Broken Blade slashed through layers of heavens like a waterfall.

Very quickly, Jin Xiaoming was no longer able to withstand the barrage of attacks and sustained severe injuries, coughing up blood.

He had pinned all his hopes on the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot to suppress and kill Lin Xun, but who would have thought that the treasure would end up subdued by the Nameless Pagoda in Lin Xun’s hand, unable to unleash its real power?

Crack!

Before long, the Broken Blade burst forth with terrifying murderous intent and severed off a section of Jin Xiaoming’s blood-red spear. The impact sent Jin Xiaoming staggering and almost falling from the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot.

Bang!

Lin Xun suddenly charged forward with lightning speed, activating the Hornless Ice Dragon Step. The Nameless Pagoda rotated above his head, and the brilliant light flowing around it strongly suppressed the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot.

Then, he stretched out his hand to grab Jin Xiaoming’s arm as if to capture him alive!

The series of actions happened in the blink of an eye.

“Get lost—!” Jin Xiaoming was so terrified that his soul almost left his body. He frantically mobilized all his strength to blast Lin Xun away.

Who would have thought that Lin Xun’s grip was like iron? He suddenly drew upon the power of the Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer and the sounds of crushing bones and flesh soon followed.

Jin Xiaoming’s expression dramatically changed. For the first time, he felt fatal danger. His opponent’s power was as tremendous as a bottomless abyss about to swallow him.

Pu!

In a split second, his right arm was torn from him and blood rained all over the place.

Boom!

Jin Xiaoming wailed with pain and anger. The Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot shot upwards and teleported him thousands of feet into the distance.

Only then did the cultivators all over the mountains react, breaking out in a commotion.

“He forcibly tore off his right arm!” someone cried out.

“Demon God Lin is too strong!” Many cultivators were struck with horror.

In Lin Xun’s hand was a severed arm still trickling blood down onto the world like a poignant rain of blood.

Swoosh!

Lin Xun flung the arm, and it accurately landed into the huge pot that A’lu had prepared on Thousand Streams Mountain.

On the other side, rage and fear contorted Jin Xiaoming’s already pained features, and his forehead was beaded with sweat.

This could be said to be the most severe injury he had suffered since he appeared in the world.

Everyone was stirred up!

“Today, finally, an ancient-era eccentric genius has been defeated!”

Everyone realized that this feat would cause a huge sensation in the world because Jin Xiaoming had never lost once since he was born.

Moreover, many top supreme figures had been defeated at his hands.

But today there was a shift in the trend, which turned people’s view of ancient-era eccentric geniuses on its head. Everyone realized that ancient-era eccentric geniuses were not invincible!

“Ahh—” Jin Xiaoming screamed like crazy as the corners of his eyes nearly split open. He couldn’t accept the truth.

Unfortunately for him, Lin Xun had no intention of letting him go. He took advantage of this opportunity to speed towards him and follow up with another strike. The Broken Blade flashed out from his hand like a divine rainbow.

In the end, Jin Xiaoming endured the anger and humiliation in his heart and fled in the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot.

He possessed unique treasures and luck and he had reached the pinnacle of his Supreme Path, but today, he had been repeatedly wounded. In addition to resentment, he felt a grip of intense fear.

He realized that if he didn’t leave soon, he could fall here!

But how would Lin Xun allow him to escape? He charged forward at full speed.

Bang!

Jin Xiaoming shook violently, and blood projected through the air. The strike narrowly missed his neck, but half of his body was sliced.

Even so, he still managed to escape the calamity, leaving on the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot in a panic.

Lin Xun was about to give chase when Mi Hengzhen stepped forward and said, “Brother Lin, there is no need to go after him. Even if you catch him, you can’t kill him.”

Lin Xun also knew that it would be difficult to intercept the Hundreds Evil Cloud Chariot which was an incredible Saint treasure.

However, he was still a little confused. “Why can’t I kill him even if I catch him?”

Mi Hengzhen explained, “All ancient-era eccentric geniuses have means to protect themselves. Even old monsters from the King Stage can’t possibly kill them.

“For example, the Golden Cicada Talisman and other life-saving talismans given by Saints.”

After a pause, he continued, “After all, every ancient-era eccentric genius carries the hopes of a sect or clan, so they would do everything they can to prevent them from dying.”

Although Lin Xun was a little aggrieved, he knew that what Mi Hengzhen said was true.

He had previously heard from Toady that ancient-era eccentric geniuses were like preserved seeds that the major forces had invested all their efforts and time into.

They were all a one-of-a-kind prodigy. If they were killed, the investments and efforts of a clan or sect would be wasted and their hopes shattered.

Therefore, to prevent such accidents from happening, ancient-era eccentric geniuses were all given secret, life-saving, trump cards!

Before long, Lin Xun and Mi Hengzhen returned to Thousand Streams Mountain together.

At that moment, the entire crowd was buzzing with a wave of excitement.

Jin Xiaoming!

He was a true ancient-era eccentric genius. However, not only was his doppelganger suppressed, but his real body was also defeated and had to flee in embarrassment!

No one imagined such an outcome.

Naturally, Lin Xun, who utterly crushed Jin Xiaoming, became the center of attention.

“As expected of the invincible Demon God Lin!”

Everyone echoed those words.

As they thought of Demon God Lin’s past achievements and feats and marveled at his victory today, they came to discover that Demon God Lin had never experienced defeat before against his peers!

Unbelievable!

“Today, the myth that ancient-era eccentric geniuses can’t be defeated has been proven false! And this is all because of Demon God Lin!”

Many people flushed with pride.

In recent days, the younger generation of cultivators all over the world had been suppressed by the ancient-era eccentric geniuses to the point that they were barely able to lift their heads.

Now, they felt a weight lifted off them.

Thousand Streams Mountain was buzzing like never.

Now that Mi Hengzhen had returned, Qi Chongdou and others seemed to have found their pillar.

Additionally, Jin Xiaoming’s crushing defeat against Lin Xun made all the cultivators who attended the gathering feel excited and honored!

But soon, everyone was captivated by the aroma of meat, and many couldn’t help salivating at the huge pot.

The lively and joyous atmosphere suddenly changed...

A’lu was preparing a pot of snake stew. Chunks of white, crystal-like snake meat bobbed about in the steaming, fragrant soup. The smell was intoxicating as if it penetrated the soul.

Lin Xun wiped the trickle of saliva down his lips and exclaimed, “It looks tastier than Black Nightmare Sky Dog meat.”

Everyone’s face twitched. They remembered that Demon God Lin was the ruthless man who once devoured the meat of a Black Nightmare Sky Dog!
