The Prodigies War

As the air of rich and pure vitality washed all over him, Lin Xun’s mind shook, and he felt like he had entered a land of immortals!

The mountains and rivers were vibrant, the space was vast, the sky was crystal blue, and all the grass and trees were verdant and thrived in abundance.

Even the commonly seen wildflowers here emitted a starry haze and soul-refreshing fragrances.

Ancient trees with peeling, cracked bark stood tall like pillars that connected with the sky. When their branches swayed, rains of light drifted down like waterfalls. Such was the rich vitality in its substance form.

Everything was straight out from a legendary blessed land where the gods resided.

Moreover, unlike Treasure Refining Land, this side of heaven and earth had a shocking number of life fluctuations!

Screech!

A cry pierced the clouds as a group of handsome white cranes streaked across the sky like divine rainbows.

“Kunlun Immortal Cranes… They’re rumored to be born alongside the Kunlun Dominion, a sign of auspiciousness. I didn’t expect we’d get to glance at them right upon our arrival.”

After admiring the cranes, Meng Yi laughed, “Doesn’t this mean that our perilous trip will turn safe and be blessed with good fortune?”

“May your auspicious wish come true, Brother Meng.” Ji Qian also smiled.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun and A’hu quietly surveyed the surroundings with their spirit senses.

They weren’t the only people in this place. In an area not far away, cultivators were emerging out of thin air one after another.

As soon as those people arrived, they couldn’t help but let out a gasp of amazement.

This piece of heaven and earth could really be described as a heavenly land where all the purest qi of the world gathered.

One didn’t even need to try to feel the aura of the Great Dao enveloping them!

“Where’s the Heaven Ascending Vine from just now? How did it disappear?” Lin Xun suddenly pondered.

The crowd was stunned, not expecting that he’d pay attention to such an insignificant thing.

Even so, Meng Yi patiently explained, “The Heaven Ascending Vine is only a means to transfer from Treasure Refining Land to the Kunlun Ruins. You can see it as a bridge between the two worlds, Brother Lin.”

“I see,” said Lin Xun.

He wasn’t wondering about it for no reason. Instead, it was because he had just recalled the origin of Treasure Refining Land.

If he hadn’t obtained the piece of blackish copper left behind by the Treasure Refining Origin Furnace, he wouldn’t have believed that the huge Treasure Refining Land was actually transformed from it!

Taking this into consideration, what about the Kunlun Ruins, and what was its origin? Could it be…

That it was also transformed from some kind of divine object?

But obviously, neither Meng Yi nor anyone else could answer this question.

Suddenly, a scream rang out in the distance, so dismal that it was extremely ear-piercing in this peaceful and quiet atmosphere.

Lin Xun and the others grew serious as they looked over in unison.

There, in front of an ancient tree, they saw a violet-clad man being strangled and dangled in mid-air as he struggled desperately to no avail.

And strangling him by the neck was a verdant branch that was tens of feet long hanging down from that ancient tree!

The violet-clad man’s body dried up at a fast speed that still allowed everybody to see the whole process clearly. It was as though his energy and flesh were being devoured.

At the end of it, only his skin remained, which quickly turned into ashes and fluttered to the ground.

The bizarre and ghastly scene caused many people to pale. Their faces changed drastically, and their hair stood up as they exclaimed in shock.

“That’s the first disciple of the Darkmoon Blade Sect. He’s also a powerful supreme Big Saint, and yet he…he died just like that?” said someone in a trembling voice.

They had only just arrived at the Kunlun Ruins, and a supreme Big Saint had already been subjected to such a vicious calamity. Whose heart wouldn’t race at this?

Only now did many deeply realize that although the world in front of them seemed peaceful and heavenly, it was actually hiding many unknown dangers.

This had always been the case since ancient times!

Lin Xun carefully inspected the ancient tree, which was verdant, towering, and surging with a waterfall of vitality.

It appeared incomparably sacred, and not a hint of danger could be seen at all.

Who would have thought that one of its branches would be able to easily strangle a supreme Big Saint?

When Lin Xun swept his eyes around at the mountains and rivers of this realm, he couldn’t help but reveal a look of gravity, and a strong sense of crisis welled up in his heart.

A’hu softly said, “Avoid forests and mountains, go around water bodies, and retreat when encountering fog…

“This is a lesson that countless seniors who once traveled to the Kunlun Ruins have summed up with their blood and lives. We can’t afford to be careless.”

With that, she turned her gaze toward Meng Yi’s group. “We’re taking our leave, so let’s part ways here.”

Meng Yi didn’t keep them, “Very well. I will be waiting for your reply.”

“Farewell.” Lin Xun and A’hu left.

At the same time, many other cultivators also got moving. One after another, they teleported away in different directions.

The Kunlun Dominion was so huge that no one knew how many secrets were buried within, nor could anyone measure its vastness.

Every cultivator here had come prepared and well-planned in advance, possessing an ample amount of illustration books, records, and clues concerning the Kunlun Dominion.

Therefore, they wouldn’t be headless flies upon action, which would otherwise invite untoward disasters.

Just like how the violet-clad man had gotten himself strangled to death for merely getting close to an ancient tree!

A’hu was also prepared. She came here for a specific Flat Peach Tree!

With her leading the way, Lin Xun naturally didn’t have to worry about the possibility of mistakenly entering a dangerous area.

It wasn’t until Lin Xun and A’hu disappeared from sight that Ji Qian could no longer hold back from asking through voice transmission, “Brother Meng, what exactly are your plans? Do you really intend to work with them?”

Smiling faintly, Meng Yi asked back, “Why not? Were we to try robbing their tablet by force, I’m afraid that we wouldn’t be able to succeed without paying a hefty price.”

“Are you sure?” Ji Qian stared at Meng Yi. He always had a feeling that Meng Yi was secretly planning something else.

Meng Yi patted Ji Qian’s shoulder and said reassuringly, “Brother Ji, we’ve been friends for a long time, you only need to follow my lead. I’ve already made plans for everything.”

After a pause, he gazed into the distance. “Let’s go. Before we head to the Fengshan Platform, let’s take a trip to this blessed land. We may obtain some good stuff there if we’re lucky.”

He then moved forward with his arms crossed behind his back.

Ji Qian and Jiang Heng exchanged a glance before following him.

“Eldest Senior Brother, can we really trust this person?” transmitted Jiang Heng, somewhat worried as Meng Yi gave her the feeling of an unfathomable abyss with deeply concealed motives.

“Don’t worry, Meng Yi definitely wouldn’t dare to harbor ill intentions toward us.” Ji Qian was very confident as a member of the Imperial Ji Clan, which had a deep connection with the Qiongqi Battle Clan where Meng Yi came from. Moreover, he had befriended Meng Yi early on and knew the latter’s character very well.

However, there was one thing that Ji Qian couldn’t figure out: was it really just for the Flying Immortal Tablet that Meng Yi had decided to cooperate with Lin Xun and A’hu?

……

Buzz~

The silver hairpin was suspended before A’hu and pointed the way for her.

Lin Xun followed closely behind while being alert all the way. The Kunlun Ruins were like a fairy land with infinite mountains, rivers, and flows of holy haze filled with vitality, but no one knew how many dangers lurked in it.

“Look, isn’t that Lin Xun?”

On the road, a group of people appeared. When they saw Lin Xun, they couldn’t help but reveal looks of deep resentment.

Lin Xun instantly recognized at a glance that it was Kun Jiulin and a group of heirs of the Primordial Dao Court.

When enemies met, their eyes blazed with hatred.

Lin Xun didn’t hesitate to attack, but was stopped by A’hu. “Don’t. This area is filled with too many dangers that can easily be triggered. Don’t forget how that heir of the Darkmoon Blade Sect died just now.”

Lin Xun’s pupils constricted, and he suppressed his killing intent.

“I thought you had guts, Lin Xun. Where is it now; don’t you dare to make a move?” mocked Kun Jiulin coldly.

At this moment, the two groups were only several dozen feet away.

However, it was obvious that Kun Jiulin’s group had no intention of making a move either. They certainly knew that they would be met with unpredictable dangers if they did.

Lin Xun mocked back, “If it wasn’t for Wen Qingxue, you would have been dead last time.”

Kun Jiulin’s face instantly became unsightly.

“I’ll give you a chance. Dare to attack me now and I guarantee to give you a dignified death. But if you don’t, then get the hell out of my way.”

As Lin Xun said this, he and A’hu forged straight ahead to pass Kun Jiulin’s group.

Kun Jiulin felt so stifled that his face was beet red, and veins popped on his forehead. There were several times when he almost couldn’t resist the urge to make a move.

But in the end, he watched as Lin Xun and A’hu swept past them.

“Trash!” Lin Xun dropped this parting remark and walked off without looking back.

“Lin Xun! The next time we meet, I swear I’ll butcher you!” Kun Jiulin’s rage burst out into a chillingly murderous roar.

The Primordial Dao Court’s disciples around him were also furious at how Lin Xun had utterly disregarded them.

Boom!

Suddenly, a gray, dull lightning bolt emerged in the nearby area.

The frightened Kun Jiulin hastily gathered the murderous aura that was overflowing from him. Instantly, the gray lightning bolt seemed to have lost its target and quickly dispersed.

Seeing this, Kun Jiulin’s group gasped. If they couldn’t have held back from attacking Lin Xun just now, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun was also astonished when he sensed the gray bolt that had appeared out of nowhere.

He couldn’t help but ask, “So, it’s impossible to fight at all in this Kunlun Dominion?”

Just now, Kun Jiulin had only let slip a flash of killing intent for it to elicit the gray lightning bolt. This was simply alarming.

A’hu shook her head. “That’s a bit much. The Kunlun Dominion has its own laws. Once we adapt to them, we’ll be able to figure out and discern some of the perils hidden among this heaven and earth.”

Lin Xun nodded.

A cup of tea of time later, the silver hairpin buzzed and quivered as it abruptly pointed in a specific direction.

It was a vast forest with tree branches and leaves that blotted out the sky.

A’hu had obviously prepared for this. With a flip of her hand, an pitch-black tree branch appeared.

“This is a branch that molted from the Flat Peach Tree a very long time ago. It will let us sense the location of the original tree after entering this forest!”
