The Prodigies War

Chapter 1147 The Outline of Burning Immortal?

All twenty-six experts were wiped out!

Wu Lingfei, the seventh prince of the Golden Crow Clan, Shang Lan, a descendant of the Sea Soul Clan, Ling Hua, a descendant of the Mysterious Metropolis Sect, Liang Xueyin, a descendant of the Thousand Beast Spirit Mountain...

The corpses of some experts reverted to their true forms. The most striking had to be the giant lion camel that was as big as a hill, a mysterious bird with serene blue wings, and an earth tree full of branches. They were all covered with blood and gruesome wounds.

The loss of an expert like them was enough to set off a huge earthquake in the outside world.

But in the Divine Flame Palace, their corpses were strewn all over the place. Anyone would be aghast at the sight.

On the bloodstained ground, Lin Xun finally relaxed. Glancing around, he muttered to himself, “There are so many excellent ingredients here.”

If those words fall into the ears of other cultivators, it would definitely send a shudder down them.

But A’lu’s and Toady’s eyes lit up and they exclaimed, “Brother is right, we must not waste the spoils!”

Of course, they quickly went to clean up the loot.

The corpses were all top figures from major clans and sects and had to possess many rare items.

“Damn it, is this a Jade Mayfly? This is a precious treasure that will have a wonderful use when I cultivate my Dao Seed.”

“How extravagant! There’s a jar of Earth Element Spirit Cleanser Liquid!”

‘Wait, are these three king-grade herbs?”

From time to time, Toady’s excited cries sounded in the main hall.

As a descendant of the Three-Legged Golden Toad Clan, he was very familiar with and knowledgeable about the treasures in the world, so he was able to identify the good from the bad with just a glance.

Very quickly, he gathered a collection of splendid treasures, each emitting a wondrous glow that illuminated the hall.

Among the dazzling array of items were king-grade herbs, divine materials, precious elixirs, and rare treasures. In the outside world, each one would draw envy and covetous glances from everyone.

“What is that thing? Is it a dog’s leg?” A’lu picked up a two-foot-long treasure that was as thick as a child’s arm and studied it curiously, intending to barbecue it.

Toady rushed over with a swoosh and snatched it from him. “What are you talking about?! This is the Ghost King Lingzhi! This thing can help strengthen the foundation of the king dao and is of immeasurable value!”

A’lu clicked his tongue in amazement and asked, “Is there anything that I can use?”

“Of course! But get out of the way first and be careful not to damage these treasures!” Toady glared at him.

It was only after a while that Toady sorted the loot and said with a satisfied look on his face, “I’ve made a fortune! Lin Xun, I have a suggestion, why don’t we become robbers? Think about it, we could just target those who come from major clans and sects. Which of those guys is not an attractive and easy source of money? If we don’t rip them off, don’t you think we would disappoint the gods for giving us that opportunity!”

A’lu stroked his chin and nodded approvingly. “I agree!”

The corners of Lin Xun’s lips twitched. Did I lead them astray or were they always like this to begin with?

But…

It’s not a bad suggestion!

Lin Xun was also tempted. He knew that, among the experts who entered the Supreme Realm, many were itching to kill him.

If I indeed run into them, then well... It’s totally fine to rob them!

……

After counting up the loot, Lin Xun put them all into his storage.

Unhappy with the arrangement, Toady asked A’lu, “All the loot went into his pocket. Don’t you think that’s too far?”

A’lu looked at him and grinned, “I don’t think Brother will ever treat me badly.”

Toady rolled his eyes. “Look at you! You have no ambition at all!”

PA!

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Xun slapped him on the back of his head. He grimaced and rubbed his head and did not dare to make a fuss anymore.

“A’lu, can you show me that rod of yours?” Toady suddenly said aloud.

Lin Xun was taken aback at first and then a thought struck him. He had always thought that A’lu’s rod was an extremely powerful Saint treasure.

But that did not seem to be the case.

Otherwise, under the iron law that Saints were nonexistent, it would have been obliterated long ago. A’lu would not have been able to mobilize it.

Perhaps, Toady noticed this so became curious about the weapon.

A’lu said suspiciously, “No!”

And he quickly put away the treasure.

“It’s just a stupid rod, who would want it?! Toady grumbled.

“You don’t want it but you still want to see it, is that right? How shameful!” A’lu retorted.

With a slight frown on his face, Lin Xun surveyed the palace and asked, “Toady, what exactly is this place?”

Toady suddenly lit up with excitement, “The land of great fortunes! You should have seen them when you came in. Just outside the palace are bronze statues of a deer and a white crane. In ancient times, this was a very significant arrangement...”

The deer and crane together symbolized the six directions.

And the six directions represented the universe.

The eaves of the palace extended to eight different positions that corresponded to the eight gods.

According to Toady, the arrangement of the six directions and eight positions represented this: “Whether it is above heaven or under heaven, only I reign supreme.” Even Saints would not be so arrogant as to set up a place like that because it was in defiance of the natural order and could attract heavenly tribulation.

“In ancient times, I once came to this place, but at that time, the palace was still in a sealed state and could not be entered.” Toady’s eyes blazed as he stared at the one hundred and eight copper pillars in the palace hall. “But it is different now. The seal has vanished, and the great fortune is destined to belong to us three!”

“What fortune?” asked A’lu.

“It is suspected to be related to a remarkable person who calls himself Burning Immortal. Of course, this is just my speculation. After all, the Realm of Supreme is too mysterious and no one in this world knows about its origin. I can only speculate that the person who left this place here has to be a powerful being that could make the world tremble at his presence!”

Toady sprang up and said impatiently, “Come with me.”

As he was speaking, he led Lin Xun and A’lu to the end of the palace.

There was nothing else apart from a fiery red wall that glistened like rubies standing in front of them.

Toady’s golden eyes gleamed. “If my guess is correct, behind this wall is where the fortune is hidden!”

Lin Xun and A’lu were both taken aback. They had carefully investigated the wall and found nothing special about it.

However, when Toady pressed his hand on the wall, an unbelievable scene unfolded.

A strange ripple of power spread outwards from the wall surface and then a huge door emerged.

The door was inscribed with the outline of a figure that looked as majestic and aloof as a divine being hovering among the clouds!

He had his back facing everyone, but even so, Lin Xun and the others still felt an oppressive aura assaulting their faces and they couldn’t help but go stiff while their minds trembled violently.

So strong!

It was just the outline of a person’s back, yet it felt as sacred and supreme as a divine being watching over the universe.

“Could he...be the Burning Immortal you mentioned?” A’lu gasped, legs uncontrollably shaking from the absolute oppressive power.

“Should be.” Toady took a deep breath and said aloud, “You guys also saw, that’s just an inscription yet it emits an aura stronger than that of a Saint! You can imagine that hidden behind the door must be an incredible fortune!”

Lin Xun agreed.

He had witnessed the power of Saints before. He had also followed the mysterious woman before and saw her terrifying abilities.

But the aura of the silhouette made the powerful Saints seem dull in comparison!

But if compared with the mysterious woman, then it was impossible to judge who was stronger.

This was because both had an unfathomable charm to them!

“Never mind this, let’s open this door and take a look first!” Toady stretched his hand towards the door.

But his hand froze midway, and an undecided look came to his face. “There is most likely great fortune beyond this door, but there is no telling what kind of danger will come with it. Do you still want to push open the door?”

Lin Xun and A’lu were silent for a moment, thinking over the question.

The greater the fortune, the harder it was to obtain, and the more likely it was to be accompanied by unpredictable dangers. This was common sense in cultivation.

Were there fortunes or danger hidden behind the door?

No one knew!

At that moment, a voice resounded—

“If you are fated with me, then you will inherit the fortune. If you are not then waiting for you behind this door will just be death.”

The voice seemed to be coming from above the clouds. It was indifferent and ethereal yet it had the power to reach the depths of the heart.

Lin Xun and the other two tremble all over, and their expressions dramatically changed.

The outline on the door actually spoke!

Toady gulped and cautiously asked, “Elder, dare I ask where this fate comes from?”

The voice rang again, “In ancient times, there were one hundred and eight divine generals who conquered the nine heavens and ten earths with me. Their descendants are all fated with me.”

As the voice echoed, the one hundred and eight copper pillars distributed throughout the hall buzzed and cast life-like images onto its surface.

Some of them were raising their swords, some were roaring skywards, some had nine heads, and some had astonishing appearances.

One was shaped like a dragon. Its tremendous figure hovered in the starry sky, and each of its scales was as big as a star, radiating a divine sheen.

One was dressed in a daoist robe but had a crane head and lightning wings extended from its back, exuding a terrifying killing aura that dimmed the sun and the moon.

Each of them came from a different clan and sect and had all sorts of unusual appearances but they all, without exception, possessed godly strengths!

There were a total of one hundred and eight of them. They were no doubt the one hundred and eight divine generals mentioned by the ethereal voice!

A’lu darted his eyes back and forth, but to his disappointment, he saw no human race. Did this mean that he was not fated with the fortune behind the door?

A look of astonishment washed over Lin Xun. The images of the divine generals were all lifelike and exuded mighty power.

But a frown slowly creased his forehead as he also discovered that there were no humans among them!

“That…that’s the ancestor of my clan!” Toady’s trembling voice reverberated.

He was staring blankly at one of the pillars, disbelief filling his eyes.

Instantly, the gazes of Lin Xun and A’lu were both drawn in the same direction.
