The Prodigies War
chapter-1404

“Lin Xun, you are a supreme human cultivator who’s on an equal footing with us, so it makes no sense for you to oppose us because of those weak ants. Lord Monster-Beast Ancestor appreciates talents like you. Join us and we can rule this world together!” said the Flame Vine King.

She looked charming wearing a fire feather crown and holding a flame staff, but her might was the strongest in the group of monster-beast Kings.

Meanwhile, the cultivators of the empire in the distance were enraged that she had referred to them as weak ants.

“In your eyes, they are weak ants. In my eyes, you lot are no different from weak ants.” Lin Xun’s expression was cold.

In the Supreme Realm, he had killed numerous extremely powerful characters. In the Ancient Wasteland Domain, he had even executed Saints.

Therefore, it was ridiculous to see these monster-beast Kings brag about themselves.

“Humans are truly lowly and ignorant things. Considering us weak ants? Watch your tongue or it may get cut off one day.” The Sea Flood-Dragon King’s face was clouded with displeasure.

These monster-beast Kings all possessed unique natural abilities, letting them easily manipulate the weather and raise storms. Their fighting prowess was extremely terrifying.

They were indeed intimidating to the cultivators of the empire, but as far as Lin Xun was

“You lot are nothing but a bunch of animals who have no idea how big the world really is yet continue to keep yapping nonsense. How ridiculous is that?” Lin Xun sneered and said, “Cut it. Just call the Black Robe King and those Shaman Kings out as well.”

“Arrogant brat!”

The monster-beast Kings were furious. Their eyes beamed with a murderous glow. The fact that Lin Xun acted so overbearing in a situation like this caused them to lose face.

“Arrogant?” Lin Xun scoffed. He then strode forward through the air, every step he took shaking the region. “That’s because you haven’t seen what true power looks like!”

Lin Xun’s pace got faster and faster. Shrouded in streaming dao light, he was like a huge green sun gliding through the sky and crushing the air in his wake.

His opponents were a total of sixteen monster-beast Kings!

This was an utterly unfair fight that no King expert of the Ziyao Empire would dare to try, especially since the monster-beast Kings were no simple characters on their own.

But Lin Xun deliberately did it!

The hearts of the crowd jumped to their throats as his dashing courage not only shocked them, but also made them worried and nervous.

They realized that regardless of this battle’s outcome, the scene of Lin Xun charging forward was destined to be burned into their minds forever.

“Kill him!” The Flame Vine King’s eyes were deathly icy.

Boom!

A monster-beast King leaped out.

He had a leopard’s head and a robust human’s body that looked like it was made of steel. He was several feet tall. Carrying a pair of bronze maces on his back, he exuded an extremely ferocious aura.

It was the Leopard King!

He was a seventh longevity monster-beast King who had ravaged dozens of cities of the Ziyao Empire and slaughtered countless generals and soldiers.

“Lin Xun, this king shall have your life!”

The Leopard King was like a lightning streak covered with flowing radiant light as his speed reached an appalling level.

In fact, it was precisely because of his absolute confidence in his speed that he dared to take the lead and attack Lin Xun.

“Die!” Lin Xun’s momentum didn’t slow as he casually tapped out a finger.

Countless dao lights surged out from him and converged at his finger before turning into a burst of force. It was as boundless as all the springs and autumns combined, crushing the air as it shot out.

The Leopard King subconsciously tried to dodge, but there was nowhere to hide under this sky-blotting finger force as it completely blocked all of his retreat routes!

Bang!

From what the crowd had seen, the Leopard King was suppressed by a finger tap from Lin Xun as soon as he rushed out. And then, like a cookie, he suddenly burst into pieces.

The Leopard King was destroyed by a finger tap!

The other monster-beast Kings were shaken to the core. Their pupils all constricted, and even the Flame Vine King revealed a look of apprehension. As they recalled Lin Xun’s past deeds, it wasn’t hard to accept what they had just seen.

“Attack together!” shouted several monster-beast Kings as they charged out.

These were the Golden Bear King, the Wind Falcon King, and the Sea Flood-Dragon King. Each of them went all out, holding nothing back.

“Wind Rise!” shouted the Wind Falcon King. A violet hurricane formed of Law Power appeared, roaring like a dragon as it rampaged toward Lin Xun.

“Die!” roared the Golden Bear King as he suddenly became ten thousand feet tall, looking like a mountain that propped up the sky.

He swung his arm that was like a stone pillar and smashed his fist at Lin Xun. Looking from afar, the fist looked like a golden mountain swinging down.

Meanwhile, the Sea Flood-Dragon King held a bronze halberd while whooshing toward Lin Xun with an unstoppable momentum.

Behind them, the other monster-beast Kings also struck out.

The sky darkened, and it felt like the arrival of the apocalypse that would plunge the world into despair.

“Slash!”

Lin Xun’s eyes were clear and calm, his black hair dancing. Facing attacks from all directions, a dazzling and sharp sword qi swept out from him.

Every time a sword qi made its entrance, the land shook, and a dragon roar stirred the sky.

Once all the sword qi appeared, they filled the air with their churning aura and infinite sharpness.

Rumble!

The hurricane that resembled a violet dragon was swiftly crushed by a sword qi.

The huge golden fist force swinging down from the sky was stabbed through from below and exploded inch by inch.

The charging Sea Flood-Dragon King felt a violent vibration running through his arm before the attacker – a sword qi – sent him flying.

The sword qi were simply unstoppable!

“AHHH!”

“Noo!”

“How?!”

Miserable cries echoed in the sky.

The first to suffer was the Wind Falcon King. A dozen swords crisscrossed as they tore him into countless bloody pieces.

Next was the Sea Flood-Dragon King, whose chest was pierced through by a sword qi. He was nailed in mid-air as his heart burst and his spirit turned into dust.

The Golden Bear King that was ten thousand feet tall, on the other hand, was like a punctured rubber ball, leaking things everywhere within a thousand feet. If one looked closely, they would see that his four limbs had been chopped off!

Seeing the three’s tragic states, the other monster-beast Kings rushing from behind jumped, and their faces distorted in fear.

Even if they were stupid, they could still see that Lin Xun had the ability to suppress them all!

Whoosh!

The Flame Vine King chose to make her move right at this moment.

The divine flame staff in her hand pointed towards the void. A fiery light shot out and transformed into a sky full of divine fire chains that hung down from the sky like waterfalls.

In just a blink of an eye, Lin Xun was trapped in a prison constructed from these chains.

Buzz!

At the same time, the fire feather crown on the Flame Vine King’s head flew out, spinning while spewing out flying knives created from Fire Law, which gleamed bizarrely with unparalleled sharpness.

“Watch out!” shouted Zhao Jingxuan in fright.

Lin Xun took a step forward. A monstrous light erupted and spread from him like a tsunami.

With a rumble, the flame cage burst to pieces.

Lin Xun immediately followed with a palm strike.

Then, his radiant, pale-green dao aura condensed into a palm print. Like a huge millstone, it ground even the void and crushed the flying fire blades into powder.

Boom!

In a terrifying explosion and under the dumbfounded gazes of all, the Flame Vine King was slapped by the green palm print and sent flying thousands of feet. Blood flowed from the cracks on her delicate skin that ruptured inch by inch.

The area went dead silent.

The expressions of the other monster-beast Kings were twisted in horror.

Too strong!

No one had expected Lin Xun to be so terrifying. The monster-beast Kings who flaunted their superiority were like humble chickens to him, easily suppressed in just one move.

The Flame Vine King was a supreme monster-beast King who could compare to the White Wasp King with her eighth longevity stage cultivation.

But so what? She got sent flying in a matter of seconds!

“Come!”

Lin Xun glowed splendidly as his power operated and his qi flowed, covering him in a layer of might that dominated the world.

He looked like a demonic god!

He stormed out, snapping his fingers, striking out his palm, punching his fist… His movements were light and casual, but they put the whole region and everyone within under a destructive pressure.

Bang bang bang!

Even though the monster-beast Kings tried their best to resist, they were struck into a broken mess. In just a few breaths, seven forfeited their lives!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun’s ferocious might had filled the area.

The distant onlookers were shocked speechless. The majority didn’t even dare to believe their eyes as this was the first time they had seen Lin Xun in action.

No one could imagine that even in a situation where he alone was facing more than a dozen monster-beast Kings, he could still be as fierce.

“Run!”

“Go!”

Scared out of their wits, all the remaining monster-beast Kings fled in fear into the depths of the Great Wind Thunder Wetlands.

Lin Xun inhaled deeply. He glowed like a great sun with an aura of immortality, indestructibility, and eternal longevity.

“Slash!”

A sword qi immediately shot up and shuttled through the mountains and rivers.

Poof!

Poof!

Poof!

In the snap of a finger, the sword qi pierced and killed the fleeing monster-beast Kings in brief succession, leaving not a single survivor.

Even the most powerful Flame Vine King was not spared!

By this point, the cultivators of the empire had all fallen into a stupor.

When they had heard that the Great Wind Thunder Wetlands had been seething with killing intent against Lin Xun, they had all been worried and had come together to aid him.

Who would have thought that he didn’t need their help at all?! He alone had killed each and every monster-beast King right on the spot!

The bloody sight made their hearts quiver.

They knew he was strong, but his power was much more terrifying than they had imagined.

So much so that the monster-beast Kings were like frail grass that he could easily wipe out. Who would dare to believe this?

Whoosh!

Lin Xun left behind a trail of afterimages as he flew deeper into the Great Wind Thunder Wetlands.

The battle had only just begun.

The Black Robe King, the White Wasp King and many other monster-beast Kings, as well as the thirteen Shaman Kings hadn’t appeared yet. How could Lin Xun hold back and miss this excellent opportunity to take them all out in one fell swoop?

“You…” Zhao Jingxuan blurted out.

Lin Xun immediately stopped. “What’s wrong?”

A thousand words stopped at the tip of Zhao Jingxuan’s tongue, only to turn into two. “Be careful!”

Lin Xun grinned and waved his hand. “I’ll be right back.”
