The Prodigies War

The battle sound was so fierce and loud that it agitated the swamp area.

Who was fighting?

Lin Xun was lying motionlessly in the swamp. Although his body was constantly being restored, he hadn’t fully recovered because his injuries were too bad.

He couldn’t even lift his eyelids.

Moreover, he was focused on performing the Dao Slashing Art with all his strength to eliminate the heavenly tribulation chain, so he couldn’t divert his attention.

Even so, he sensed that he was in an unprecedentedly dangerous situation. If he didn’t recover soon, his life could be at risk!

He discarded all the distracting thoughts in his mind and focused his mind and body solely on the refining of the heavenly tribulation power.

His injury was so bad to the point that it couldn’t be any worse. Under normal circumstances, it would be irreparable, and he would no doubt die. But just as his body was about to give up, a majestic force swept out from his Origin Aeth Artery and turned the situation around.

As he operated the Dao Slashing Art, wisps of divine mist rose from his Heaven Ascension cave dwelling and auspicious light flooded the area. Amidst roaring Dao sounds, mysterious rays of light rushed onto the Dao Platform one after another to refine the heavenly tribulation chain.

At that moment, Lin Xun’s potential was being awakened, like a dried-up riverbed being filled with water.

His mangled body was being repaired, and his wounds were gradually closing up. Every part of his body was emitting strong life force and was no longer dead.

Rumble—

The movements in his Heaven Ascension cave grew stronger and stronger. At a speed that was visible to the naked eye, the heavenly tribulation chain was being refined little by little, transforming into power and streaming over the dimmed Dao platform.

It was a supreme power of order and law. Although it had been refined, it was still unbelievably strong.

Now, the refined power had all been integrated into his Dao platform, nourishing and tempering the Dao platform in an unprecedented way!

It was a blessing from heaven!

Who would have imagined that heavenly tribulation power could be refined and integrated with a person’s Dao platform?

That was the special characteristic of the Dao Slashing Art. It transformed tribulation power to integrate and harmonize with the foundation of the Great Dao

As the roar continued, Lin Xun’s originally dim Heaven Ascension cave was now overflowing with splendid light and continued to expand.

Even the Dao Platform had been stabilized. It might not be as luminous as it was in the past, but it exuded an aura of simplicity as though it could stand forever in the world against all hardships!

The change was like seeing the sun after a storm!

Lin Xun reversed his situation at death’s door. It was as though he had been reborn from the ashes of his cultivation.

That was the supreme path. It was known as the strongest path in the world, but the sufferings, setbacks and hardships involved were unimaginably terrifying.

Even someone as extraordinary as Lin Xun had almost lost his life. He finally survived after enduring almost half a month of pursuit and attacks.

The path was unheard of, at least in the Ziyao Empire. There was no record of it even in the ancient books. It seemed to be taboo and not allowed to exist in the world.

“Damn it, if I had known that so many enemies are looking for you, I wouldn’t have come back.” Jin Duyi’s unique toady voice mingled with annoyance rang in Lin Xun’s ears,

Lin Xun snapped out of his cultivation. The toad came back?

He released a ray of consciousness, only to see Jin Duyi in a blood-soaked green robe grimacing in pain and yelling. “Ah—Ahh—it hurts so badly. Boy, I will remember you! If you hadn’t withstood three slashes for me, I would have eaten you alive!”

While yelling, Jin Duyi cast a worried look at Lin Xun and grumbled, “Is the kid really dead? Why is he not waking up? If I knew he was dead, then I wouldn’t have come back…”

A warmth flooded Lin Xun’s heart. Although that guy has a bad personality, he is no doubt loyal.

At the same time, a fire blazed in his heart. Toady is severely wounded because he protected me!

“That girl is pretty good. She is fighting a group of experts by herself. I don’t know what kind of luck you have to find such a kind and beautiful woman…” Jin Duyi sighed.

Lin Xun’s heart quivered. Is there someone else helping me?

He released another wisp of consciousness and discovered a fierce battle breaking out not far away.

Yu Xiaosheng, the Saint of the Dragon Whale Clan, Lin Lang, the Saintess of the Blood Lion Clan, as well as the Saint of the Jade Qilin Clan, the Saint of the Demon Elephant Clan, the Saintess of the Dark Wood Clan and other remarkable genius figures were on the battlefield.

They were all surrounding one person.

No, they weren’t surrounding that person. Instead, they were being obstructed by that person. That person desperately attacked anyone who tried to charge over to Lin Xun!

That person…

…was Zhao Jingxuan!

Her clothes were stained with blood, her bright and beautiful face was deathly pale, her hair was disheveled, and her figure was unsteady. She had sustained heavy injuries.

Even so, she was still fighting and persevering and never hesitated once. Her face bore a look of determination.

A gush of indescribable emotions flooded Lin Xun’s body.

How could he imagine Zhao Jingxuan, the princess of the great empire, a successor of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land, would protect him at the risk of her life?

“What a crazy woman! Do you want to die for this boy?” A loud and impatient roar echoed on the battlefield. It was Yu Xiaosheng.

“You’re alone! You can’t stop us at all. Move out of the way! Don’t be stubborn. Otherwise, you will also suffer today!”

Many cultivators threatened Zhao Jingxuan. Her strength had exceeded their expectations.

Fortunately for them, Zhao Jingxuan couldn’t hold on much longer. It wouldn’t be long before she fell!

However, she didn’t seem to hear them. Her expression remained resolute and calm.

Blood was trickling down the corners of her lips, and she was swaying from side to side.

The scene was heart-wrenching and anger-inducing for Lin Xun. He hated the fact that he couldn’t charge onto the battlefield and stand in front of Zhao Jingxuan.

She was a renowned genius maiden of the empire. She was the direct descendant of the emperor. She enjoyed a well-respected and noble status, but she looked like a crazy lunatic desperately doing everything she could to stop enemies from approaching Lin Xun.

The sight was extremely tragic and shocking.

No one could understand her. Was it worth throwing away her life for a dying boy?

Zhao Jingxuan’s action seemed childish, stupid and funny in the eyes of the elites from the various clans.

“Ahh, if I had a woman like her by my side, my life will be worthwhile even if I don’t seek longevity,” Jin Duyi sighed.

He was also dumbfounded. He couldn’t imagine the important position that Lin Xun occupied in Zhao Jingxuan’s heart for her to willingly sacrifice her life to help him.

“Boy, if you still have a conscience, wake up quickly. You will deeply regret it if such a beautiful woman dies,” murmured Jin Duyi.

As though Lin Xun heard Jin Duyi’s words, he sprang up from the swamp. His wounds continued to heal like he was undergoing a new life.

Boom!

A powerful wave of energy spread out from Lin Xun like a hurricane, sweeping the swamp like a turbulent sea.

However, Lin Xun sat there cross-legged, eyes closed and made no further movement.

But the divine mist was spiraling up from his body, splendid and mighty as a waterfall. It was as though the most powerful and boundless life essence was surging up!

The world dimmed as though Lin Xun had taken away all its brilliance!

Amid the mist and undulating swamp, Lin Xun’s body glowed brightly like a divine god undergoing a cleansing ritual.

“Hahaha, he’s awake! He’s finally awake. He has resolved the Dao injury! Heavens! He really is a monster!” Jin Duyi laughed.

Not far away, Yu Xiaosheng, Lin Lang and other cultivators turned ashen-faced, realizing that the situation was not good for them.

Zhao Jingxuan was on the verge of collapsing, but when she saw the powerful life force roaring from Lin Xun’s body, her face lit up and she muttered, “Do you guys see? This is why I’m fighting with my life on the line...”

“Kill! Kill that woman!”

“Damn it, the kid is going to rise again. We can’t let him succeed! Quick everyone, strike with your strongest attacks!”

Within seconds, Zhao Jingxuan sustained another near-fatal injury. Her back was split with a long, deep wound, almost tearing her internal organs.

“Kill!”

Meanwhile, Yu Xiaosheng seized the opportunity to aim his giant dragon bone halberd at Lin Xun!

With a boom, the surrounding air shattered. It was undoubtedly Yu Xiaosheng’s strongest attack.

“Do you think I would let you succeed?” Jin Duyi suddenly yelled.

Despite his life-threatening injuries, he still bravely rushed over to help Lin Xun block the blow.

He was instantly blasted into the swamp. All his bones were instantly broken, and he was now on his last breath.

“Little bastard, let‘s see if you can survive this time!” Yu Xiaosheng uttered coldly while he skillfully swung up the giant halberd. It glittered with a terrifying Dao Ripple.

“You dare!”

Zhao Jingxuan’s beautiful face reddened in fury as she desperately darted over at full speed.

It was too late.

The giant dragon bone halberd was about to split Lin Xun’s head open!

“No—”

Jin Duyi roared with the last of his breath. Was he going to be killed like that at this stage?

However, to everyone’s astonishment, Yu Xiaosheng’s halberd froze inches away from Lin Xun’s head.

A slender and fair hand was firmly clutching the ax blade of the giant halberd!
