The Prodigies War
chapter-878

How could such a tiny jade bottle actually have such a shocking name?

Lin Xun was very dubious of the name.

Dao Immeasurable wasn’t a name an ordinary treasure could have. After all, the dao was the supreme law and power of the world. To use it in a name was undoubtedly a taboo that would bring disaster instead of fortune!

The usage of the word immeasurable was even more particular.

What was immeasurable?

It was a word to describe something that was infinite and impossible to measure!

Hence, any cultivator would be alarmed to find out such a tiny bottle possessed such a taboo name.

Lin Xun used his spirit sense to investigate the functions of the bottle and soon understood why it was given such a name.

Although the treasure looked like a tiny bottle, it contained a seemingly immeasurable world that Lin Xun could not find the end of.

Its greatest use wasn’t storage of ordinary items, but instead to store martial dao power!

For example, the power of a punch using the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art could be stored in the bottle.

After storing martial power, it could be released with a single thought. Additionally, the power released would be twice as strong!

Lin Xun could not help but gasp when he understood this. "This is more amazing than those redirection techniques that leverage the opponent’s force against them..."

Swish!

Lin Xun couldn't resist trying it out. He immediately drew the Broken Blade and executed his strongest Silent Emptiness Slash.

Omm~~

At the same time, he used his spirit sense to activate the bottle. The bottle mouth heated up and spouted radiant, dream-like light which transformed into a vortex.

A shocking scene followed. When the Silent Emptiness Slash was released, it was noiselessly swallowed by the shining vortex!

Yes, swallowed.

Its power, aura, and everything else was completely sucked away into the Dao Immeasurable Bottle!

Boom!

With a thought, the Dao Immeasurable Bottle fiercely erupted, sending out a Silent Emptiness Slash. A supreme flash of light instantly emerged and slashed open a ten-thousand-foot-long crack in the air.

An astonishingly huge gully was left on the ground, looking almost bottomless amidst the floating dust.

Lin Xun's heart violently shuddered. The power of this Silent Emptiness Slash was indeed much more powerful than his own!

What an excellent treasure!

Lin Xun's eyes glowed. The Dao Immeasurable Bottle was definitely an unbelievable treasure with unique and amazing abilities.

"In preparation to face an enemy, I can store martial power in advance to use as a deadly trump card by striking at an unexpected moment. "

"Similarly, I can activate the bottle in a battle to swallow the opponent's killing move and return to them at double the power..."

In an instant, Lin Xun came up with two different methods to use the bottle in the battle. Before the battle, power could be stored in the bottle in advance to use as a trump card during battle.

In battle, it could swallow the enemy’s killing move and be returned with even greater power!

"I wonder if the bottle can swallow finishing moves from those King stage old monsters. If it can, the benefits will be even more astonishing..."

Lin Xun’s heart involuntarily shivered when he thought of this.

He suddenly realized that if he was chased by King stage experts again in the future, he could use this bottle to swallow their killing moves and neutralize the danger.

Moreover, the bottle wasn’t just capable of swallowing attacks. It could also release them again with double the power!

If the full power of a King stage expert was released by the bottle with double the power, could it kill a King stage expert?

The more Lin Xun thought about it, the more he felt that the treasure was simply magical and divine.

He had a strong feeling that he had only managed to figure out part of its capabilities, and the bottle definitely had more functions to be uncovered!

However, this was still speculation. He didn’t actually know whether the bottle would be able to swallow the killing move of a King stage old monster unless he tested it first.

In any case, it was a happy surprise to obtain such a special reward from the second trial.

Omm~

Suddenly, the dao talisman in his hand produced a strange fluctuation, and Lin Xun was teleported away from the misty gray Realm of Limits.

……

Swish!

When Lin Xun reappeared, he had arrived at a vast sea with violently raging waters. The sea was so boundless that it was impossible to find its end at a glance.

The Sinking Sea!

It was the venue of the third trial.

It was a very strange sea. When the test began, lotus flowers would appear on its surface. Cultivators would have to use these lotus flowers as footholds to race across the sea and reach the other side to pass the test.

Many figures had already assembled on the shore of the sea and were gathered in groups as they talked among themselves.

"Demon God Lin!"

"I wonder what ranking he obtained in the second trial."

"It’s a pity that Demon God Lin has offended too many people. Otherwise, I would have been happy to cooperate with him in the third trial."

When Lin Xun appeared, he immediately drew a flurry of sideway glances and murmurs.

Lin Xun was unfazed. He quickly scanned the area and judged that there were about two thousand experts spread out across the shore.

"I recall there were over ten thousand people at the start, but less than thirty percent are left at the third trial. What a shocking elimination rate."

While Lin Xun was lost in thought, he walked to a remote corner and looked at the Sinking Sea.

As the name implied, cultivators would immediately sink the moment they stepped into the sea. Cultivators could only use the lotus flowers as boats to race across the sea because flying and traveling underwater were restricted.

Moreover, cultivators would be eliminated the moment they fell into the sea!

In previous Dao Lantern Festivals, although the Sinking Sea Race wasn’t dangerous, it had an extremely high elimination rate.

Experts with grudges would often use this opportunity to attack their enemies. After all, since the participants could only rely on the lotus flower boats, it was far too easy to fall into the sea the moment a battle erupted.

In fact, a single wave could easily destroy an opponent.

After all, the water of the Sinking Sea wasn’t ordinary water, but was instead filled with terrifying dao power. Each drop weighed more than ten thousand pounds, making a single wave no different from a mighty mountain.

Lin Xun soon withdrew his gaze.

He noticed that Ji Xingyao, Yu Lingkong, and the other supreme heaven prides had arrived long ago and were discussing something in low voices.

In addition, Mu Jianting, Lei Qianjun, Zhongli Wuji, Qing Lian'er, Sha Liuchan, Li Qinghuan, and Wu Duanya also had their own entourages.

Lin Xun also saw Bai Lingxi. She was dressed in white, still beautiful as usual as she stood to the side of Yu Lingkong.

Upon noticing Lin Xun's gaze, she smiled faintly and nodded.

Lin Xun smiled back, but his expression soon stiffened because he sensed a pair of cold eyes sweep toward him.

The owner of the eyes wore a white dress. She had a slender and graceful figure, skin that seemed to sparkle like gems, and a fair and beautiful oval-shaped face. She gave off an ethereal and sacred aura like a fairy who had walked out of a painting.

It was Ji Xingyao, the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms successor.

Lin Xun was still feeling a little guilty. He had accidentally hit the proud girl’s butt, which created an awkward and embarrassing misunderstanding.

Unless necessary, Lin Xun really didn’t want to meet Ji Xingyao. She wasn’t just proud but also didn’t have a good temper...

Lin Xun could keenly sense that although Ji Xingyao's gaze seemed calm, it also contained a hint of murderous intent that felt like a cold knife pressing against the skin.

A cold voice rang out in Lin Xun's ears, "If you dare to reveal what happened that day, I guarantee that you will die a horrible death!"

It was a clear threat.

Lin Xun's eyes narrowed. This lass had such a terrible temper. Why did she still remember after so long?

A faint smile rose from the corners of his lips, and he suddenly waved at Ji Xingyao. "Don't worry, this will be our secret and I won't tell anyone."

"You ......" Ji Xingyao's expression froze as uncontrollable rage surfaced in her eyes. How could she have anticipated that he would be so shameless and say such easily misunderstood words in public?!

He was clearly toying with her!

Sure enough, the experts nearby were dumbstruck when they heard these words.

What was this situation?

Did Demon God Lin secretly hook up with Fairy Ji?

Everyone stirred restlessly and was in disbelief.

Ji Xingyao was the most highly regarded among the younger generation of the West Infinity World. She was like a fairy from the heavens who was admired by countless cultivators.

Previously, no one had ever heard of her having ties with any young man.

However, people could not help but think otherwise after hearing what Demon God Lin said.

For a time, many experts were secretly envious and jealous while many more were enraged, believing that Demon God Lin had insulted Fairy Ji.

The sight reignited Ji Xingyao’s hatred. She gnashed her teeth as her eyes flashed fiercely, wishing she could rush over and rip Lin Xun to pieces.

It was simply infuriating!

She had never seen someone as shameless and brazen as Lin Xun!

"Just you wait!"

Ji Xingyao transmitted in a voice dripping with hatred. She suddenly realized that whenever she bumped into Lin Xun, she would become unable to control her emotions and remain composed.

Lin Xun displayed a wide grin as he inwardly remarked, "Only you’re allowed to threaten me while I’m forbidden from retorting?"

Ridiculous!

The nearby experts’ hearts churned at the sight.

Are Lin Demon God and Fairy Ji flirting?!

Is it a good idea to do so in front of so many people?

Ji Xingyao knew that she would only be more triggered by the shameless Lin Xun if this continued. With a deep breath, she turned away as if looking at him a second more would make her go completely berserk.

Next to her, Yu Lingkong witnessed everything as an almost undetectable iciness flashed in his eyes.
