The Prodigies War
chapter-1582

Zhu Yingkong's expression was uncertain.

The tragic defeat of Xue Qingyi and the others was like a thunderbolt coming down from a clear sky, which made him agitated and unable to calm down. He could not even imagine how such an appalling thing could happen.

He looked at the city wall in the distance that was filled with a sacred, golden aura. He was silent for a long moment. Finally, he hissed one word from between his teeth, “Go!"

After that, he turned around and left.

Along the way, Zhu Yingkong never looked back.

From the moment he found out that Xue Qingyi and the others had suffered a disastrous defeat, he knew that the matter of breaking through the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s City of Protection was now irrelevant.

Because this tragic defeat was very likely going to change the pattern of the Nine Domains Battlefield!

After all, Xue Qingyi and the others had returned in vain. Therefore, how could the cultivators from the eight domains who had gone to the Origin Magnet Secret Realm have a chance to become Saints?

The experts from the Ancient Wasteland Domain now could take advantage of this situation to enjoy the opportunities in the Origin Magnet Secret Realm. Many supreme Saints could emerge in one fell swoop!

In the past, the people from Ancient Wasteland Camp were like two-legged sheep, so weak that they could only be slaughtered like livestock. Therefore, the other eight domains never took them seriously.

But it was destined to be different now!

This was not only because Lin Xun, a fierce and powerful character, had emerged, but also because his camp would now have the foundation to compete with the other eight domains!

It was no exaggeration to say that Xue Qingyi and the others had suffered a disastrous defeat. After all, this outcome was enough to cause ripping changes in the entire Nine Domains Battlefield.

Zhu Yingkong was most scared of this!

On the way back, Zhu Yingkong was extremely silent and didn't say a single word. Thus, Zhu Yingxue and other experts from the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain who were following him were not able to calm down.

Xue Qingyi and the others had mobilized their troops and put up such a huge fight, but they were all defeated by a single Lin Xun. How terrifying was this?

Who else in the Nine Domains Battlefield could be his opponent now?

The more they thought about it, the more frightened they became.

Suddenly, there was a burst of ruckus in the distance. It was a group of True Saints, but all of them looked pale and panicked, and they were obviously running away from something.

Zhu Yingkong took action and directly stopped a middle-aged man who looked relatively calm. "What happened?"

Obviously, until this moment Zhu Yingkong still couldn't believe the fact that Xue Qingyi and the others had been miserably defeated.

The middle-aged man was initially shocked from being intercepted, but when he saw clearly that the person who stopped him was from the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, he told them everything that had happened on the shore of the Black Cliff Sea. Uncontrollable fear colored his voice.

After Zhu Yingkong heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh. His expression was uncertain, and he could already tell that the news he heard earlier was true

“A single person can bring the Ancient Wasteland Camp back to life? This Lin Xun…is really an incredible monster."

Zhu Yingkong felt as if he had the weight of the world on his shoulders now.

Without any further delay, he hurriedly left with his group of people from the Absolute Yin Ancient Domain.

…

At the same time, on a tower of the City of Protection, Shaohao and Ruowu were stunned by this turn of events.

Zhu Yingkong had actually left?

This felt abnormal!

"Just now, they looked panicked when they were talking, especially Zhu Yingxue, as if she was extremely scared. Could it be that something extremely unusual had happened in the Origin Magnet Secret Realm?"

Ruowu's heart moved.

Shaohao pondered for a moment before making a decision, "I'll go take a look."

"No!" Ruowu quickly stopped him. "What if it's a trap?"

Shaohao smiled slightly, "In the worst case scenario, I can simply escape and come back. Do you still think that I can't even keep myself alive?"

With that said, he took off into the air.

Ruowu thought about it and felt relieved.

After all, Shaohao had been able to lead the experts from the Ancient Wasteland Domain and escape the pursuit of a group of supreme Saints. His strength was not just for show.

Furthermore, he was also in possession of an Emperor Dao Sacred Scripture, which was a life-saving weapon.

Not long after, Shaohao returned, but his expression looked extremely strange, as if he was confused and in disbelief.

Ruowu couldn't help but ask, “Why did you come back so quickly?"

With a pop, someone was thrown to the ground. He was an old man with white hair and a beard, and he came from the Star Fiend Ancient Domain.

"On my way there, I caught this old guy. After interrogating him briefly, he told me the truth of what happened in the Origin Magnet Secret Realm."

Shaohao sorted out his thoughts, took a deep breath, and said, "It's just that I didn't expect this at all. How...how could such an incredible thing happen?"

One sentence aroused Ruowu's curiosity. She slapped the old man awake and began to interrogate him.

It didn't take long for her to learn everything, and she was stunned for a moment. Uncontrollable shock appeared on her beautiful and refined face.

"This...isn't this too fierce of him?"

Ruowu stuttered when she spoke, which showed just how much turmoil was in her.

“He had said he was going to ask how many Saints there were, so he could reap their heads in one go… Hahaha, Lin Xun, what a stunning killing blow! How wonderful!" Shaohao laughed, his voice shaking the sky.

His friend’s heroism made his blood bubble with glee. He could easily imagine the unparalleled scene of Lin Xun furiously breaking through thousands of people and sweeping all directions.

Although Shaohao could not experience it in person, he yearned to see such a scene in his heart.

Ruowu was also very happy and waved a jade-like fist. "Such a feat has never been seen since the ancient times, and there is no hero like him in either the ancient or modern times!"

The old man weakly interjected, "Both of you, I've already said what I have to say, can you...let me go quickly?"

He had obviously realized that he was destined to be doomed this time, so he might as well seek a quick relief.

"As you wish."

With a snap of Shaohao's fingers, the old man disappeared into ashes.

On this day, the Ancient Wasteland Camp was in a state of excitement. Thousands of people cheered, and countless people celebrated. The City of Protection was filled with noisy and jubilant scenes.

Lin Xun had killed everyone and successfully escorted a group of supreme experts from the Ancient Wasteland Domain into the Origin Magnet Secret Realmi. For the Ancient Wasteland Camp, this meant that a group of supreme Saints would surely emerge in the future!

In the future, would they need to fear when competing with the other eight domains?

What shocked and exhilarated them the most was that Lin Xun could single-handedly suppress three Azure Blue Eight Supremes. This also meant that as long as Lin Xun was in charge, the Ancient Wasteland Camp would never be bullied again!

"Lin Xun!"

"Lin Xun!"

"Lin Xun!"

On this day, countless powerful experts from the Ancient Wasteland Domain were chanting this legendary name. No matter who it was, they felt admiration, excitement, and gratitude.

Because everyone knew that Lin Xun deserved the most credit for making it possible for the Ancient Wasteland Camp to survive this extremely ferocious Nine Domains Battlefield!

It was no exaggeration to say that he alone had changed the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s situation!

Even the ancient orthodoxies and large clans that had been hostile to Lin Xun many times before were silent at this moment.

They could continue to hate Lin Xun, but in this Nine Domains Battlefield, they had to rely on him to survive!

…

On this day, the news about this battle spread quickly throughout the Nine Domains Battlefield, causing an uproar as if it had grown wings.

How is this possible? How could he, Lin Xun, be so scary?"

“There were hundreds of supreme Saints, as well as three leaders including Xue Qingyi, but they were finally defeated at the hands of that guy Lin Xun?"

"How horrible!"

"Is that little bastard invincible?"

Discussions like this continued to echo in the other eight domains, including the North Sea, Absolute Yin, Star Fiend, Nine Dark, Blood Demon, and Great Luo.

The areas where the other major camps were located were like exploding cauldrons, and countless people were shocked and in an uproar because of this.

It was really unbelievable.

In the past, many people subconsciously believed that Lin Xun had been able to defeat the allied seven domains army because he had relied on the help of the power of the formation. Thus, they thought that his personal combat power was not strong enough to be invincible.

But now, the rumors said that he alone can defeat three top leaders. This was incredible!

It should be noted that the Azure Blue Eight Supremes already represented the highest combat power in the Nine Domains Battlefield. However, Lin Xun even defeated the joint efforts of three of them combined. Therefore, didn’t this mean that Lin Xun was already the number one expert in the Nine Domains Battlefield?

No one wanted to believe that!

The other eight domains had always despised and looked down upon the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Who was willing to accept such a cruel reversal?

Compared with this, some experienced experts had begun to worry and had realized the seriousness of the situation.

Although Xue Qingyi and others had lost this battle, it was also equivalent to the defeat of the eight domains, because in the end, no one from the eight domains was able to enter the Origin Magnet Secret Realm!

After this incident, a group of supreme Saints were destined to emerge in the Ancient Wasteland Camp, which was enough to cause earth-shaking changes in the situation.

This was the scariest and most worrying thing to them!

"The previous two Conflicts of the Nine Domains were ultimately a battle between our eight regions. Will this time be different?"

Numerous people sighed over the prospect.

“Where did this Lin Xun come from, and how can he be so powerful?"

More and more people were analyzing and speculating about him. They seemed to regard Lin Xun as their number one threat and no longer dared to be as negligent as before.

After all, Saints weren’t a dime a dozen!

While it seemed like each domain camp had many supreme Saints and True Saints, they actually represented the foundation of an entire domain!

Only in the Nine Domains Battlefield could one see so many Saints gathered together to compete amongst each other.

It would be impossible to see such a gathering in ordinary times in any of the eight domains.

For example, even the Ancient Wasteland Camp seemed to have no shortage of True Saints. However, it should be noted that those Saints had all come from different ancient orthodoxies and large clans.

Normally, these Saints would not easily appear in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, so how could they be seen often?

But now, Lin Xun regarded Saints as nothing more than something trivial to handle. Over the past year or so, countless supreme Saints and True Saints had died at his hands.

This was undoubtedly too terrifying, enough to make anyone unable to sit still and tremble with fear!

However, compared to this, the thing that really made the other eight domains feel that the situation was serious, and even chilling, was related to Jian Qingchen.

Because according to the rumors, Lin Xun had already killed Jian Qingchen before the battle broke out!

Jian Qingchen, the leader of the Great Luo Territory, was a legendary existence with the title of “Crown of Ten Directions.” He was a peerless swordsman and a supreme Saint, yet he had somehow died without anyone knowing what had happened. Was it because of Lin Xun?

If true, this was truly too scary!
