The Prodigies War
chapter-920

The Longevity Palace presented a simple, unshowy bronze color, yet it appeared magnificent and terrifying with the supreme aura of the Saint Path circulating it.

It seemed to have woken up from silence, and the power that erupted from it was even stronger than when it was in Yu Lingkong’s hands.

Even from afar, its power filled everyone with despair and killed any thought of fighting back.

In truth, Lin Xun was indeed unable to budge. Firstly, it was because he had been seriously wounded from the terrifying blow, and secondly, the Longevity Palace was too terrifying.

He was frozen to the spot just from its oppressive aura alone. It was so strong that even his spirit almost crumbled.

It should be mentioned that Lin Xun’s spirit had been cultivated to the level of Spirit Flower Convergence!

Even so, it was directly overpowered and suppressed, unable to resist at all. Imaginably, the power of the Longevity Palace was immeasurable.

That was the true power of a Saint treasure!

It was also the first time that Lin Xun faced the threat of a treasure ever since he started cultivating. He deeply felt helpless and powerless for the first time in his life.

All he could do was activate the Nameless Pagoda with all his strength, hoping that it could get him out of the predicament.

But he also knew that the hope of that happening was very slim. The Longevity Palace had already occupied the upper hand due to his carelessness.

At this critical juncture, an indifferent voice reverberated between heaven and earth—

“In the land of blessings, no foreign objects are allowed to interfere, step back!” As the voice rang out, the bronze bell buzzed on the table in the center of the altar.

Clang!

Just like primal chaos creating the world, the heaven and earth were quaking violently and a gush of boundless supreme power swept the world, rushing to the Longevity Palace.

The audience was paralyzed as if struck by lightning. Their spirits flickered and tottered like they were drunk.

The Longevity Palace shook and rumbled, bursting out with endless dao light. The power of laws of the Saint Path rushed forth like a tide, surging turbulently.

However, the power of the bell was unstoppable, suppressing the power of the Longevity Palace!

Too unbelievable!

Who would have imagined that the bronze bell would display its divine power to expel the Longevity Palace?

This was a real showdown between saint treasures!

Obscure dao runes surfaced around the Longevity Palace. There were all sorts of scenes, including ancestral sacrifice and the carnage of gods and demons.

Its power grew increasingly terrifying as if it was a true Saint. It launched thousand beams of power of laws of the Saint Path to fight against ripples of power of the bells!

Everyone’s scalp went numb, and their liver and gall were splitting apart. The two powers were too strong, beyond their comprehension, just like a real battle between Saints!

The indifferent voice resounded once again, “The sound of the bell is all living beings, and the Saint Path originates from all living beings. To fight against it is a great rebellion!”

Boom!

The sound of the bell deepened, as though it was gathering the power of the common people.

The Longevity Palace was surrounded by surging dao runes and a sacred aura, but in the end, it gave up on the battle like it knew it was useless.

Buzz—

Its brilliance wildly circulated its body as it spewed out a stream of gorgeous light to collect Yu Lingkong’s body. Then, it tore apart the void and vanished.

It was unstoppable!

At the same time, the ancient bell sound also faded into silence.

If Yu Lingkong’s body hadn’t disappeared, everyone would have thought that it was a dream

A showdown between saint treasures?

It was the first time that they had seen the extraordinary power of the Saint Path. It was indeed terrifying beyond belief and made them feel so small and insignificant!

Lin Xun broke out in a cold sweat after narrowly escaping death.

Only then did he realize the meaning of the name egofield saint treasure. It represented a saint treasure that possessed the unfathomable power of the laws of the Saint Path.

Lin Xun started to doubt whether Yu Lingkong was truly dead.

On the table, the half-foot-tall bronze bell was still and silent, and the indifferent voice never rang again.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and when everyone returned to their senses, only Lin Xun was left in a wounded state on the battlefield.

The experts who had been watching all along launched into action, charging at Lin Xun with murderous intent!

“You—!” Bai Lingxi panicked and rushed forward without hesitation to protect Lin Xun.

Mu Jianting, Li Qinghuan, Shang Jia and the others also acted. They wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of Lin Xun, a formidable opponent.

They could tell that Lin Xun was extremely weak after suffering a blow from the Longevity Palace.

It was the best time to kill Lin Xun!

Shua!

Mu Jianting was the first one to get close to Lin Xun. He hated Lin Xun to the bone, so he wouldn’t miss out on the opportunity to kill him.

“Despicable!” Rage pulsed through Bai Lingxi’s veins. She had been paying close attention to the situation, so she couldn’t tolerate the others attacking Lin Xun at this time.

Shua!

As her figure fluttered, a dreamy glow formed around her. She summoned her dao sword and swung it with all her strength.

Sword intent repeatedly clashed in the air with a deafening rumble. Bai Lingxi and Mu Jianting fought at close quarters, erupting with dazzling and gorgeous light.

The silence on the altar instantly broke!

Chi!

A golden spear pierced through the air with unrivaled sharpness, exuding intense murderous intent and aiming straight for Lin Xun’s heart.

Shang Jia also made a move. Back when he was climbing up the dao altar, he had also launched a sneak attack at Lin Xun, hoping to stand up for Qing Lian’er, use Lin Xun’s life as a betrothal gift, and propose marriage to the Blue Luan Clan.

But now, he seized the opportunity to launch an even more ruthless attack.

Given his condition, Lin Xun had no choice but to dodge the attacks. It was difficult to disguise his serious injuries. The Saint Path power of the Longevity Palace was too terrifying. If the Nameless Pagoda hadn’t lessened the blow, then he would have been subdued and killed on the spot already.

Shua!

Li Qinghuan also came charging at him from the other side, launching a bright blade of light from an unexpected angle.

Some of them wanted Lin Xun’s life, while some wanted to seize the pagoda in Lin Xun’s hands. Although their motives differed, they still all attacked at the same time.

Who would miss out on the rare opportunity to snatch the Nameless Pagoda? After all, it held out against the Longevity Hall, which indicated that it had to be a Saint treasure.

Lin Xun would be incredibly difficult to deal with once he recovered since he could kill even Yu Lingkong!

Bai Lingxi might not be weak in battle, but she was quickly pushed to the edge of danger after facing multiple attacks from several peerless figures.

As for Ji Xingyao and Luo Jia, they didn’t participate in the battle but continued to fight for the number one fortune on the table. Since all cultivators had changed their target to Lin Xun, that gave them a rare opportunity to seize the fortune.

In short, the situation was changing constantly like a storm.

Lin Xun had become the target of a multitude of arrows, and his situation was even more dangerous than before!

He wouldn’t have been able to survive if not for the protection of the Nameless Pagoda!

Pu!

Before long, Bai Lingxi was coughing up blood.

Lin Xun’s eyes were ice cold as he glowered at everyone while anger was building up in his heart. He couldn’t stand the people trying to take advantage of the chance to take his life.

But he had to accept the fact that he was wounded. If it continued, then he would be exhausted to death, if not killed.

“When the tiger comes down from the mountain, it will be bullied by dogs…” Lin Xun sighed but he didn’t give up. He thought of the white ginseng!

Knowing that Lin Xun wanted to borrow some of his medicinal power to repair his wounds, the old rogue was hopping mad and refused without any hesitation. “Impossible! Don’t even think about it! I’ve only formed one wisdom root after so many years of hard work. How can I let you have it?!”

Lin Xun was in no mood to joke around. Even the most precious medicine might not be able to repair his current injury. It was a pity that he had already consumed all the Golden Essence Jade Liquid obtained from the lair of the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast King when he broke through to the Cyclic Derivation Stage.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t even need to wrangle with the old rogue. He was only discussing it with him because he didn’t want to destroy the old herb.

“If I can’t live, then neither can you!” Lin Xun made up his mind to devour the old guy whole!

“What are you going to do?” The old rogue screamed, “All right, all right, don’t do anything, I promise you, okay?” He wrinkled his nose in a grimace.

In the end, he pulled out one of his roots and a verdant leaf and threw it grudgingly, “If my foundation is not enough to become a herb saint in the future, little bastard, you will have to take responsibility!”

A pleasant and ethereal voice rang from the pagoda, “Lin Xun, are you injured?”

Lin Xun’s heart fluttered.

A giant jade stone that he carefully placed on the first floor of the pagoda began to buzz before breaking apart with a crack.

A slender and beautiful figure stood upright, as illusionary as a dream. Wisps of black mist that were as dark as eternal night rose from her.

She was dressed in a huge black cloak with half of her face concealed by the brim of her hat. Only her fair chin and her pale lips peeked out from her hat.

Even so, she was no doubt a breathtaking beauty. Her sweet lips were slightly pursed, the bridge of her nose was high, and her skin was fair and flawless.

Xia Zhi!

She finally woke up from slumber, but she was significantly taller and more elegant than before. Her black cloak could no longer cover her ankles, exposing her slender and fair feet that were as perfect as if they were carved from jade, glistening in the light.

Xia Zhi had been an innocent and flawless little girl back then, but now she had grown into a graceful and beautiful young woman.

“It seems like every time I see you, you are in a very distressing situation. Is someone bullying you again?” Her clear voice was filled with an ethereal and tranquil charm like the sounds of heaven.

Xia Zhi casually flipped over her hat, and a purple spear and a black umbrella appeared in her hand.

“I’ll help you.”

She had said the same thing as when they were in Feiyun Village. Her clear eyes shone with a serious look like black gemstones.

Her voice was filled with righteousness, exactly the same as back then, and hadn’t changed in any way.
