The Prodigies War
chapter-1259

Clang! Clang! Clang!

The Broken Blade and the blood-colored divine sword collided violently with a deafening boom.

Everyone’s expression changed.

Unquestionably, the blood-red divine sword had an extraordinary origin. Upon a closer look, a river of blood was flowing down the two-finger-wide sword body, and in the river, corpses of gods and demons and their bones bobbed up and down. It was a frightening, hair-raising scene.

As the sword slashed through the air, the river of blood seemed to be sweeping across, releasing an aura of destruction that could annihilate all life!

Underworld River!

Lin Xun instantly recognized the vision projected by the sword. It was the blood-colored river that had trapped him for four years.

It was terrifying that a sword was endowed with the aura of the Underworld River.

“Yuantu Sword!” someone gasped.

Then, a chorus of gasps rang out from the audience.

In the Ancient Wasteland Domain, a mysterious legend had been circulating. In the ancient era, there was a sect called the Blood Underworld Holy Cult and it possessed two swords

One was named Yuantu, which was born in the Blood Underworld River.

And the other was called Abi, born in the Blood Underworld Purgatory.

The two swords were both Xiantian divine weapons and also the sacred treasures of the Blood Underworld Holy Cult. Only Saints could unleash the true power of the two divine swords.

Most frighteningly, whoever wielded the two swords would induce fear even in Saints without karma.

If the sword in Underworld Son’s hand was indeed the legendary Yuantu Sword, then that would be unbelievable and would ignite envy and covetous desire in any Saint cultivator.

“It should be the real Yuantu Sword, but its power seems to have been sealed because it should be much stronger than that.”

Ye Mohe’s eyes flashed as bright as lightning, and his heart pounded in his chest.

“In the Supreme Realm, Saints do not exist. Fortunately, that sword is sealed. Otherwise, Underworld Son likely would not have blatantly drawn the sword.”

The eyes of top figures flickered.

“The Yuantu Sword is an unparalleled fierce sword that can make even Saints turn pale at the mention of it. In ancient times, the sword has feasted on the blood of countless Saints and created many colorful legends.”

Someone whispered, “But I’m more curious about what sort of treasure the broken blade in Lin Xun’s hand is. It’s impressive that it can rival the Yuantu Sword!”

The spectators all had different thoughts, but all were drawn to the treasures in the hands of Lin Xun and Underworld Son.

“Kill!”

Underworld Son exuded an arrogant superiority as he manipulated the Yuantu Sword to kill across heaven and earth. He looked invincible and unstoppable.

Everyone was just speculating, but Underworld Son knew very well that the sword was indeed Yuantu!

However, he had hoped to suppress Lin Xun with the legendary treasure, but it turned out that the Broken Blade was just as good.

He finally realized the terror of the Broken Blade.

Because of this, his expression turned more serious than ever, and he decided to go all out.

Buzz—

Meanwhile, Lin Xun did not hesitate to activate the Extreme Word Inheritance.

Instantly, the Broken Blade’s power surged wildly, as if it had awakened from a deep slumber. It released a ray of sharpness that tore the entire area like a cloth.

In the distance, many cultivators felt a stinging pain in their eyes and their spirits stabbed by the unparalleled sharpness!

Clang!

Yuantu Sword flew backwards with a loud metallic ring.

Although the sword had a terrifying origin, it was still a sealed Xiantian Saint Weapon. Moreover, one treasure could not decide the outcome of a battle of this level.

Pu!

Caught off guard, Underworld Son coughed up blood, and his face blanched.

“I’m going to kill you!”

He roared in fury, his blood-red eyes reddening, and he charged forward to kill once again.

The audience was wild with commotion, shocked by the unexpected turn of events. Even the Yuantu Sword failed to suppress Lin Xun’s counterattack.

The Underworld experts blankly stared from far away, forgetting to cheer and encourage Underworld Son.

Underworld Son was clearly infuriated. His bearing became more powerful and terrifying than before, which made many top figures turn pale at the sight.

However, Lin Xun no longer intended to hold back.

Following a clear cry resounding throughout the world, the Broken Blade slashed across the air, and the world fell into silence. All sounds were hushed and everything stilled.

Silent Emptiness Slash!

Pu!

A streak of scarlet blood jetted into the air, and a bone-deep wound was left on Underworld Son’s shoulder. He almost lost an entire arm!

The agonizing pain distorted his furious features into a menacing grimace.

He could not believe it!

They had fought thousands of rounds, but the situation was vaguely escaping his control.

Before this, he had an absolute advantage and always maintained the upper hand, steadily suppressing Lin Xun. Even so, he still felt disgraced.

After all, Lin Xun was an entire cultivation level lower than him.

But now, Lin Xun was not only gradually turning the situation around, but also launched an incredible counterattack and dealt a severe blow at him!

How could the prideful Underworld Son who regarded the world beneath him accept this?

The audience was unable to calm down. They were finally certain that Lin Xun, who was at the third longevity tribulation stage, had averted the crisis and launched a counterattack!

This seemed unbelievable, but it happened so vividly before their eyes so they had to believe it!

“Die!”

Underworld Son went completely berserk. His blood-colored hair danced wildly around him while his arts, daos and powers were pushed to their extreme. He resembled an underworld river stretching across the sky, exuding a terrifying annihilation power.

“Slash!”

Lin Xun had indeed become different. His face was calm and without a ripple of either sadness or happiness. It was an expression of ultimate tranquility.

The Broken Blade cut through the air and flickered in the sky like darting between birth and death.

Birth Destruction Slash!

Even though Underworld Son dodged in time, his back still split open with a bloody cut, and blood poured out like a waterfall.

The color drained from his face as he roared like a wounded beast. Everything that happened was beyond his expectation and he could not believe it.

Meanwhile, the entire audience was in an uproar, shocked by the power that Lin Xun displayed.

“I’ll kill you!”

Amidst earth-shattering roars, Underworld Son’s violent aura was ready to wreak havoc on the mountains and rivers. Spurred on by blinding fury, he charged and started sending out killing blows.

Lin Xun remained calm and composed, but with one thought, an indescribable and obscure aura spread outwards from Broken Blade.

Shua!

Broken Blade flashed lightly and slashed downwards.

It seemed nothing special, yet it gave a feeling of impermanence. It was elusive, untraceable, and mysterious like the great dao.

Many cultivators felt so uncomfortable that they almost vomited blood because the slash attack was unassailable like a mystery!

Some top figures donned solemn expressions, struck with shock and disbelief.

As for Underworld Son, when the blow landed, an incomparably strong feeling of impending doom flooded his heart.

It was an inescapable and inevitable feeling!

Pu!

The next second, a huge head hurled up into the air, dripping with blood.

The place suddenly fell into deathly silence. Everyone stared dumbly at the scene, eyes wide with horror.

None of them captured the movements of the slash, but it landed on Underworld Son’s neck!

Shock rose in everyone like a tide and spread to their bodies and minds.

Everything seemed to have frozen at that moment.

Underworld Son was an ancient-era eccentric genius who had been silent in the Supreme Realm for endless years. In the years since he was reborn, he had led a group of subordinates on conquests and made the name of Underworld become known to everyone!

Such a fierce character with remarkable combat strength and luck was defeated today and even beheaded!

Who…would believe it?

The most unbelievable thing was that his opponent Lin Xun was an entire cultivation level below him!

Even top figures such as Little Golden Winged Dapeng King, Ye Mohe, and Luo Jia were speechless, emotions roiling within them.

They were thinking about whether they could have blocked Lin Xun’s slash just now.

Thud!

The head tumbled to the ground, whipping up a cloud of dust. The muffled thud was particularly deafening in the extremely silent atmosphere.

Many people’s hearts thumped.

But to their surprise, Lin Xun, the winner of the duel, not only did not ease up, but his expression also grew increasingly solemn.

A shrill, furious roar rang out on the battlefield.

Then, under the horrified gazes of everyone, Underworld Son’s headless body swelled up, clothes ripping open, and transformed into a strange beast!

It was a blood mosquito of several feet in size. Its body was as striking red as blood and emitted an eerie coldness.

Its eyes were like blood-colored lanterns—cold and menacing. It had eight wings on its back and each one was densely inscribed with cryptic underworld text.

Its aura was so baleful and fierce that it sent chills down many people. Hovering in midair, it resembled an evil god descending upon the world, oozing arrogance and superiority!

“Eight-winged blood mosquito!” someone cried out.

“Legend has it that it is the most terrifying evil in the underworld!”

The audience broke into a commotion and became restless.

The eight-winged blood mosquito, a peerless evil born from the Underworld River, was a kind of strange species raised by nature, possessing unbelievable combat powers.

Six-winged blood mosquitoes were not uncommon in the Underworld River Forbidden Zone.

But the only one with eight wings was the one in front of them!

No one imagined that Underworld Son’s true form would be an eight-winged blood mosquito.

No one thought that Underworld Son would not die after being beheaded, and even reappear in his true form with a much more terrifying aura!

“Roar!”

The eight-winged blood mosquito roared, the murderous intent stirring up the world. It shot across the sky in the direction of Lin Xun at a speed so fast that it seemed like it was teleporting.

“Slash!”

Lin Xun did not dare to be careless and swung the Broken Blade in a swift and decisive slash.

Bang!

Unexpectedly, the Broken Blade that had previously wounded Underworld Son was blocked by the eight-winged blood mosquito, and the power of the slash was instantly obliterated by a blast of ominous blood-colored light from it.

Everyone gasped. It is indeed a legendary great evil!

The eight-winged blood mosquito charged forward with unstoppable force and power, madly beating its eight blood-colored wings and pouring out beams of indestructible light that was transformed from underworld text.

Adding to that, its roar was endowed with a strange penetrating power. Even from a far distance, it stung and ruptured many people’s eardrums. Blood trickled down from their ears and some almost fainted from the impact!

So strong!

Only now did everyone learn that Underworld Son’s true trump card was his real body, which no one had imagined before this.
