The Prodigies War

A lotus flower blossomed, illuminating the entire universe like a lantern!

The divine scene shocked everyone, causing their expressions to change as they were assaulted by indescribable disbelief.

It was like a miracle had appeared.

An ethereal fragrance began to spread. It felt like a holy and clean aura that could wash away all impurities.

Meanwhile, wisp after wisp of Zen sounds spread from the lotus flower. It started off faint, but gradually grew grand and immeasurable!

It was as if three thousand Buddhas were chanting the sutras together, producing a sound close to the dao itself as it echoed across the heavens and universe while resonating with the soul.

Numerous experts stirred restlessly. The lotus flower was too divine, like something that could not possibly belong to this world. It would certainly be a peerless treasure if obtained.

Lin Xun muttered, “It seems that everything is indeed related to an ancient saint stage Buddhist cultivator…”

“Careful, we must be careful!”

Toady grew increasingly nervous. He seemed to sense something and cautioned, “Among the saints of ancient times, those bald monks are known to be the most difficult to deal with. They possess the proof of dao, comprehend karma, can deduce the Mahayana saint art, and have the most tenacious and steady hearts.”

“Put bluntly, they are a bunch of crazy bigots who will do everything in their power to realize their convictions, and there is nothing in this world that will ever change their minds.”

Wasn’t this tantamount to scolding the Buddhist saint cultivators? Lin Xun could not help but be astonished by Toady’s choice of words. It seemed that he had quite a lot to say about these Buddhist cultivators.

“You have to believe me. If this opportunity is related to Buddhist cultivators, it will be insanely difficult to obtain. Those bald monks are always fixated on fate, which is a huge headache.”

Toady grumbled, “You’ll understand when it fully emerges.”

Above the peak, the bowl-sized lotus flower grew increasingly sacred and clear, flowing with light that could illuminate the entire universe as it gently whirled and swayed.

The ethereal Zen fragrance and sutra chanting caused the atmosphere to feel solemn and sacred.

At the foot of the mountain, the bitterly fighting experts were awed by this scene. All of them stopped what they were doing as if they had suddenly gained enlightenment, no longer fighting as they stood on the spot with pious expressions.

A similar scene was occurring on the peak. The experts felt dazed while an almighty power beat against their hearts and souls as if trying to proselytize them.

“Careful!”

“That’s the proselytism power of the Buddhist Sect. It is a terrifying force that will basically end your life if it manages to erode your heart and mind!”

“Damnit! Is this opportunity related to the Buddhist Sect? Didn’t they lose their true inheritance long ago in some ancient era?”

Several of the top experts realized that something was wrong, causing their expressions to change drastically. They hurriedly shouted to warn the other experts beside them.

“Interesting.”

A transcendental smokey aura swirled around Xiao Ran, making him untouchable. He was clearly unaffected and was instead trying to immerse himself in the power belonging to the Buddhist Sect.

Yun Che, Su Xingfeng, Gong Yangyu, and the others focused, casting aside all other thoughts, as they guarded their minds and hearts to prevent being affected.

Lin Xun circulated the Little Divine Meditation Art. The stars in his mind-sea shone like moons in the sky, instantly dispelling any undulations in his mind.

How frightening, I almost succumbed without knowing!

Lin Xun’s heart shivered, finally realizing that Toady was right. Although the opportunity seemed sacred and solemn, it was secretly filled with unpredictable changes and dangers.

He looked toward Zhao Jingxuan and Toady and immediately relaxed upon finding that they had successfully neutralized the proselytism power as well.

Gurgle!

As time passed, the lotus flower suddenly blossomed, revealing forty-nine petals. Divine paths made from light spouted from each petal, creating an indescribably gorgeous and magnificent sight.

Meanwhile, doors materialized above the forty-nine altars, pulsing with saint aura.

The doors were connected to light paths that led to the forty-nine petals!

From a distance, the altars resembled doors, and the light paths bridges that led to the center of the lotus flower.

“The altars are doors, and the petals are paths into the lotus flower’s heart? Could the opportunity be hidden in the lotus flower?”

Some experts speculated as their eyes flickered.

It was at this moment that a grand disembodied voice rang out across the area—

“A single grain of sand can contain a thousand worlds, all arts originate from the same source, and ten thousand reincarnations pass in an instant. This opportunity will only be bestowed to the destined person!”

It was like a Buddhist hymn, but it was not complicated. Instead, nearly everyone understood, the final part about the ‘opportunity being bestowed to the destined person’ especially shook up the entire place.

The experts' breathing grew heavier, and their eyes burned with desire as they rubbed their hands in anticipation.

It has finally appeared!

At some unknown time, the divine undulations had finally fallen silent, along with the Sanskrit chanting. The fragrance had also dissipated, leaving only the forty-nine softly vibrating altars.

Above the altars, doors surrounded the lotus flower in a circular phalanx while paths led from each door to the lotus flower in the middle like roads into a land of opportunity.

The lotus flower was clearly the size of a bowl. However, every sign at this moment indicated that the opportunity was hidden within the lotus flower, causing numerous experts to be startled.

However, there wasn’t any time to think about it because some experts had already moved!

Rumble!

An imposing figure emerged from one of the zones on the peak, his body flowing with jet-black light and filled with terrifying, berserk power.

His piercingly cold eyes and halberd-shaped beard made him resemble a supreme overlord overlooking his domain. He took a step forward and walked into the door above the altar.

‘Little Bull Demon King’ Niu Tuntian!

The Herculean Demon Bull Clan Chosen was a famous apex heaven pride who possessed superior talent and combat power, and he was the first to move.

Lin Xun wasn’t the only one who had been making a name for himself in the Deva Secret Domain. In other places, various individuals had also been distinguishing themselves from the rest and carved their own bloody rise to fame.

Niu Tuntian was one of the most famous among them. His path had been filled with battle, and he had seized uncountable treasures from the tiger's jaws. The experts who had died at his hands numbered no less than a hundred!

Swoosh!

In another zone, a beautiful figure clothed in dazzling gold light also stepped forward and walked onto the altar.

She was bathed in fiery light, dream-like golden light sprinkled down around her like rain, making it impossible to make out her features.

However, everyone immediately identified her. It was the Golden Luan Clan Saintess, Meng Lianqing!

She had once single handedly taken on three Saint-level individuals and ultimately defeated them. Her peerless cultivation most certainly made her a force to be reckoned with.

It wasn’t just Niu Tuntian and Meng Lianqing. Several other unrivaled individuals had also begun to move, like Cloud Hou Clan Saint, Kong Xiu, the Mysterious Ao Clan Saint, Xuan Luozi, etc.

These individuals had been making names for themselves in the Deva Secret Domain through their battle accomplishments. Each was like a rising star that ordinary Saints could not compare to.

All of them had moved nearly in unison, clearly intent on being the first to reach the great opportunity!

“Go!”

Xiao Ran also moved and Su Xingfeng and the others quickly followed.

Just as Lin Xun was about to set off as well, he was stopped by a transmission from Toady. “The opportunity will only be bestowed onto the destined person. Do you still remember what this king said earlier? These Buddhist baldies are obsessed with fate. The first to move might not be the one to obtain the greatest benefit.”

Lin Xun was taken aback. “You’re saying we should wait a little longer?”

“This king can decipher the Mahayana secret script. Since each of the forty-nine altars has been inscribed with this secret script, it won’t be too late for us to get going after deciphering them all.”

Toady shiftily transmitted excitedly, “This king has a feeling that the words on the altars aren’t so simple. How about it, do you want to give it a try?”

“This…”

Lin Xun was tempted and began to hesitate.

Above the altar, Su Xingfeng frowned and asked, “Why aren’t you moving?”

Lin Xun casually answered, “You guys go first. I’m worried about the danger and plan to wait a little longer before going.”

“Someone like you can feel afraid?”

Su Xingfeng’s lips curled in disdain.

“It’s fine, we’ll move first.”

Xiao Ran turned his head and looked deeply at Lin Xun. He did not say anything else and walked toward the door above the altar.

“Don’t waste too much time, and don’t move out too late. If you miss the timing, you’ll be left with nothing but regret!”

Su Xingfeng coldly snorted as he and the others left with Xiao Ran.

Zhao Jingxuan could not help but inquire, “What are you guys doing?”

Lin Xun briefly explained. Zhao Jingxuan immediately understood. After some thought, resolve flashed in her clear eyes, and she also decided to stay behind.

On the peak, the other top experts had already begun to move. They stepped into the doors above the altars and followed the light paths toward the divine lotus flower.

However, everything changed the moment they stepped onto the paths. Stars and time seemed to whirl around them as their bodies rapidly shrunk. By the time they neared the lotus, they had already become as small as grains of sand that were nearly impossible to make out.

Several of the remaining experts on the peak gasped!

Someone exclaimed, “Squeezing Mount Xumi into a mustard seed! That’s a legendary supreme divine art that uses the power of space and time to allow even a single leaf or flower to contain an entire world!”

However, this did not scare them off, but instead made them scramble even more quickly into the door.

They finally understood that although the lotus flower was only the size of a bowl, everything was different inside it. Like how Mount Xumi was contained into a mustard seed, the lotus flower likely contained a vast land of opportunity!

The experts had not actually shrunk, but had crossed into a different space where a miraculous transformation had occurred!

Only saint experts could possess such a remarkable technique.

After all forty-nine altars were emptied, the long-waiting Toady revealed an extremely smug and crude smile as he led Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan to investigate the other altars.
