The Prodigies War

Dao Immeasurable Bottle!

With a squeeze from Lin Xun, a stream of sword energy abruptly shot out from the mouth of the crystalline bottle.

No Return!

It was the same move Lin Xun had used to kill the silver-robed woman.

However, the move released by the Dao Immeasurable Bottle was completely different in magnitude. Its power was double that of the one he had unleashed previously.

Clang!

Amidst a deafening collision, the golden war spear was brutally knocked away, breaking the wrists of the quasi-Emperor holding it.

Horrified, he tried to dodge but the sword qi was already looming above his head.

Boom!

A horrifying scene followed. The quasi-Emperor was shattered to tiny fragments by the sword qi, leaving not even his spirit intact.

The fourth quasi-Emperor had been killed!

The remaining purple-robed man and the spirit bead wielder were in shock as the anger in their hearts was finally replaced by fear.

In the beginning, they were full of confidence and regarded Lin Xun as a turtle that was already trapped in a jar. In fact, they had felt it a waste for the six of them to deal with a mere young man at the supreme Saint-King Stage.

However, the reality was that despite the briefness of the clash, four quasi-Emperors had already been killed in quick succession.

The silver-robed woman died to No Return.

The short and stout old man died to the Eyes of Smoldering Flames.

The thin man died to Lin Xun’s Great Dao Field.

And now, the golden war spear wielder died to the Dao Immeasurable Bottle!

These bloody deaths were like incomparably heavy blows that hammered on the hearts and minds of the remaining two quasi-Emperors, making them feel as if they were in a dream.

It was simply too terrifying and inconceivable!

"Second Brother, the situation doesn’t bode well. If we don't leave now, I'm afraid..."

The spirit bead quasi-Emperor had a grave look on his face. Although he still looked intimidating in his brocade robes, fear had already flooded his heart.

The purple-robed middle-aged man’s expression was clouded with uncertainty.

His bleeding heart was churning with a mix of anger, reluctance, and terror.

The fact that a junior had caused them such huge losses was nearly making him go crazy.

However, the brocade-robed man’s words immediately cooled the purple-robed man’s head and he began to consider withdrawing.

"Leave!"

He gritted his teeth, intending to retreat.

"Don't you think it's too late to leave now?"

Lin Xun suddenly closed in and activated the power of his Great Dao Field, restraining the remaining two quasi-Emperors.

"Kill!"

The quasi-Emperors’ expressions changed as they fought back in desperation.

However, they were no longer fighting to kill the other party but to find a way to survive. As long as they found an opening, they should be able to easily escape with their strength.

Rumble!

The purple-robed middle-aged man pressed his hands forward, summoning millions of mighty water streams that resembled a raging ocean. They seemed capable of submerging the entire world and destroying anything in their path.

On the other side, the brocade-robed man also brought out his trump card. With a wave of his hand, eighteen colorful spirit beads flew out, forming a ring of beads that buzzed loudly as they sprinkled waves of divine light.

The two quasi-Emperors’ desperation made Lin Xun feel tremendously pressured.

Hence, he stopped holding back.

Swish!

Blindingly bright white light suddenly flashed from his chest and the land, mountains, rivers, and everything else seemed to freeze over.

It was as if the ever-flowing time had stopped for an instant!

Innate talent — Time Stopping!

Everything seemed to become a painting on a canvas. The purple-robed middle-aged man and the brocade-robed man were frozen in the painting, along with the desperate means they had deployed.

It was an extremely bizarre scene that was also undoubtedly terrifying.

After all, it involved the supreme power of time which was a dreadful mystery that even Emperors rarely touched.

"Slash!"

While using Time Stopping, the Broken Blade unfurled onto the brocade-robed man like river of stars.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun appeared in front of the purple-robed middle-aged man and unleashed the Heavenshaking Punch infused with the essence of the Great Endless Devour Scripture.

Plop!

The brocade-robed man was cut open, splattering blood into the air. Sharp, gorgeous sword light engulfed his broken body and ultimately destroyed his body and spirit.

On the other side, the purple-robed man’s chest caved inward with a dull thud, causing blood to spurt from his mouth and nose as he screamed in pain.

Lin Xun had originally aimed at the purple-robed middle-aged man's head but he had managed to recover from Time Stopping at the final moment and avoid the fatal blow.

If not, the punch would have taken his life.

Rumble!

Space rapidly collapsed around the purple-robed middle-aged man as he flew backwards. With a caved-in chest and deathly pale face, it was clear that he had sustained heavy injuries.

The sight of his final companion being killed made it feel even worse.

Mad with anger and hatred and tears of blood streamed from his eyes, he roared, "Abominable! You little bastard, I, Helian Xiong, will kill you today!"

"You no longer have a chance."

Even before finishing his words, Lin Xun had already appeared in front of the purple-robed middle-aged man.

The purple-robed middle-aged man’s vision immediately went dark as if a huge abyss had swallowed him from above. He tried to use a secret art to avoid it, but he was tightly held in place by a terrifying suction force.

Next, he was engulfed and devoured by the darkness.

Rumble!

As Lin Xun's Great Dao Field power circulated, the purple-robed middle-aged man disintegrated inch by inch.

His spirit and all of his power were gobbled up in a blink of an eye as he turned into ashes.

Lin Xun stood in the air, casting a reflection on the bottomless abyss below. With his fluttering black hair, he resembled a demon god from the ancient legends.

A prideful demon god who disdainfully looked down upon the world!

In the distance, the watching Helian Qi was dumbfounded. When he saw the purple-robed middle-aged man die, he finally crumpled to the ground and cried out in despair, "No, that's impossible, it’s not true—"

A terrified shriek rang out across the destroyed terrain.

Helian Qi was a supreme Saint-King who had ranked top ten in the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest and distinguished himself in the second round.

A talent like him was admired by many cultivators in Cloud State.

At this moment, however, he resembled a frightened quail. The look in his hopeless, bloodshot eyes made it seem as if he had lost his parents.

"Do you regret it?"

Lin Xun suddenly appeared in front of Helian Qi, his black eyes not rippling in the slightest as he gazed at the latter’s frightened and blank eyes.

Was this idiot finally feeling afraid?

"You...who are you?"

Helian Qi raised his eyes and looked at Lin Xun, finding him extremely unfamiliar as if they had just met for the first time.

"Is that still what you care about at death’s door?"

Lin Xun was surprised.

"I’m certain that there’s no one called Jin Duyi in this world who can kill so many quasi-Emperors at the supreme Saint-King Stage!"

Helian Qi's bloodshot eyes were filled with hatred.

"If only you were this smart earlier, then none of this would have happened."

Lin Xun sighed softly.

"Who are you?!"

Helian Qi screamed as if he had gone mad and completely lost his rationality.

"What’s the use of knowing who I am when you’re going to die soon?"

With that, Lin Xun waved his sleeve.

Rumble!

A terrifying force transformed into a giant furnace that descended from above.

This was also one of the functions of his Great Dao Field. When it resembled a furnace, it could embody the essence of the Great Dao Furnace Art. When it resembled an abyss, it could take on the form of a devouring abyss.

In a flash, Helian Qi was killed and his spirit was destroyed.

Even in his final moments, he was still screaming to know Lin Xun’s identity.

Lin Xun could already tell that Helian Qi's mind had collapsed and his sanity had been compromised. Even if he wasn’t killed, he would become a lunatic.

Lin Xun began cleaning up the battlefield.

Whoosh!

Moments later, the Grand Universe Ark took off into the air and flew away.

Only the devastated terrain was left behind.

After Lin Xun left, a group of people soon appeared. They were led by none other than Daoist Lan, the chief of Phantasm Empyrean Island.

Daoist Lan took a quick glance around and judged, "I can sense the remnant auras of several quasi-Emperors. From the looks of it, an extremely fierce battle must have taken place here."

Someone couldn’t help but ask, "Chief, could someone else have beaten us to the punch and killed Jin Duyi?"

Daoist Lan shook his head. His expression was uncertain as he said, "The remnant quasi-Emperor auras belong to six individuals. If my guess is correct, these six people have likely met their end."

"What?"

"Jin Duyi was clearly traveling alone. Could someone have secretly helped him?"

The rest of the group were bewildered.

Daoist Lan took a deep breath and made his decision. "Let's go, we’re returning to the sect."

Go?

Everyone was taken aback. Were they giving up just like that?

Daoist Lan said in a deep voice, "Do you think Jin Duyi dared to travel alone without anything to rely on? Can’t you see that six quasi-Emperors have died? In fact, I suspect that an Emperor is following him..."

Emperor!

The word immediately alarmed everyone. Come to think of it, how could an ordinary person kill six quasi-Emperors?

As such, Daoist Lan and his group hurriedly left.

"Hmph, these Phantasm Empyrean Island guys are quite smart."

Not long after Daoist Lan’s group left, Heng Xiao and the other Xuanji Dao Sect bigwigs appeared in the vicinity of the battlefield.

Someone couldn’t help but ask, "Sect Master, Young Master Jin Duyi's combat power is simply terrifying. Do you know where he’s from?"

They had been secretly following Lin Xun and had observed the entire battle earlier.

Originally, they had planned to lend a helping hand, but they never expected that Lin Xun would kill two quasi-Emperors in quick succession at the start of the fight.

Soon after, the other quasi-Emperors were slaughtered one after another.

Those bloody scenes shocked them so much that they could hardly believe their eyes.

After all, a supreme Saint-King was slaughtering quasi-Emperors as if they were chickens. Had anyone in the Great Primordial Chaos World ever witnessed such an inconceivable thing?

Naturally, there was no chance for them to intervene and help.

Heng Xiao said in a deep voice, "Regardless of who Young Master Jin Duyi is, today's events must not be leaked. Do you understand?"

Everyone inwardly shivered as they nodded.

Upon seeing this, Heng Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and said in a hushed voice, "That is our founder’s junior uncle. His status and strength are naturally incomparable to ordinary people!"
