The Prodigies War

A battle raged in the temple as blood was continuously spilled.

Lin Xun was like a young god of war sweeping through the battlefield with Broken Blade, sending out slashes of starlight and blade qi that easily cut through all resistance.

The Water Brute experts could only roar in fear as they desperately tried to resist.

However, all of their struggling was fated to be futile. Lin Xun had previously chased many young heroes from the various clans and carved a bloody path through them. His unstoppable ferocity was feared by even the saints of the various clans, making them prefer to avoid him if possible.

Hence, how could these Heaven Ascension Water Brute experts possibly be Lin Xun’s match?

For a time, the temple was filled with screams and shrieks as blood rained like a waterfall.

Even Toady was taken aback by the carnage. He originally wanted to help, but found that there was no room for him to interject.

He inwardly called Lin Xun a freak. It was too one-sided. The enemies were being chopped up by Lin Xun like vegetables, and it was clear that they were not on the same level.

In a few brief moments, the Water Brute experts were mercilessly slaughtered by Lin Xun, leaving only chunks of their corpses and blood everywhere.

Lin Xun was completely untouched. His moon-white clothes were spotless, and even the Broken Blade was clean of blood.

He stood there amidst the blood and corpses, giving off an aura of superiority. Who could imagine that this hellish bloody massacre would be in any way related to this elegant and charming young man?

“F*ck your granny, you’ve taken the spotlight. How will this king ever feel useful if you keep doing this?”

Toady sighed bitterly. It was the melancholy of someone who was born in the same era as an almighty hero.

In the distance, Zhao Jingxuan said with annoyance, “Toady, why do you still have time to complain? Hurry up and come help me!”

She had been trying to suppress Yao Susu and Lian Fei using the Nine Dragons Cauldron, but was unable to deal with the mysterious scroll, causing her to grow somewhat anxious.

“Isn’t the kid already going? If this king tries to interfere in your couple's affairs, wouldn’t I just be a third wheel?”

Toady began to chuckle in an exceptionally vulgar manner, creating a bizarre contrast due to his bewitchingly handsome face. It was a very uniquely Toady moment.

Lin Xun had indeed gone to help. His expression darkened when he heard Toady’s vulgar comment.

Third wheel?

This damn toad is asking for a beating!

Lin Xun gnashed his teeth and said, “That’s fine, when we divide the treasures later, I will cut off your third leg if you dare to be a third wheel!”

“Peh!”

Before Toady could react, Zhao Jingxuan’s face turned red as she viciously glared at Lin Xun as if scolding him for becoming indecent as well.

Lin Xun was speechless and felt as if he had been wronged. It was because Toady was a Three-legged Golden Toad! Was there anything wrong with cutting off his third leg?

“Look, look, you two are still bickering and flirting like a married couple even at this important juncture. How can a poor and lonely single like me endure this?”

Toady’s face was filled with resentment.

This fuss caused the already despairing Yao Susu’s and Lian Fei’s expressions to become even uglier.

What kind of people are they? Why are they chatting so idly as if we’re just air?

It was simply…too much!

Yao Susu and Lian Fei didn’t know what to feel. Anger? Indignation? Despair? Humiliation? Or maybe sorrow?

“Lin Xun, kill us if you’re going to kill us. Why are you humiliating us?”

In the end, Lian Fei could no longer take it and roared angrily, his eyes nearly popping from their sockets.

“Eh, sorry I didn’t consider your feelings. I nearly forgot we’re mortal enemies who have been feuding for many years.”

Lin Xun’s nonchalance caused Lian Fei to nearly cough blood in anger as his face turned steely green.

Why is he so unconcerned when his mortal enemy is right in front of him?

Does he feel that I’m not even qualified to be his enemy?

“I’ll fight you!”

Anger rapidly clouded his rationality as Lian Fei bellowed and pounced at Lin Xun.

“Don’t”

Yao Susu’s complexion turned pale in alarm. The secret map in her hands was the only thing that was protecting them from the other party’s attacks.

But if Lian Fei went on the offensive, what difference would it be from running straight to their deaths?

“It is indeed time to end the grudge between us.”

Iciness flashed in Lin Xun’s black eyes. This was the chance he was waiting for. In a flash, the Broken Blade slashed, causing a head to spiral into the air.

Even until death, Lian Fei’s face was still filled with rage and shame, unable to accept everything that had happened.

“You’re too efficient. This king thought that you would keep torturing him a little longer to release the hatred in your heart. It’s revenge after all, and you should normally be thinking about all your past grievances. Weirdo, you killed him with a single swing. How boring.”

Toady let out a strange laugh as he commented.

“To be honest, if he didn’t jump out, I would have nearly forgotten that he existed.”

Lin Xun shrugged as he displayed an innocent face.

After entering the Forbidden City, he experienced numerous dangers and difficulties. This desensitized his feelings regarding the grudge between himself and Lian Fei. In fact, he didn’t even care about eliminating Lian Fei anymore.

Who could have imagined that the other party would refuse to forget him and continue to view him as the enemy? Lian Fei even tried to borrow Yao Tuohai’s and the entire Yao Clan’s power to set up a trap for Lin Xun.

In the end, the Yao Clan was destroyed, Yao Tuohai was killed, and even the Water Brute Tribe’s Life Death King expert, Shui Qianshan, was defeated by Steel-Blood King Ning Bugui and forced to flee.

In the present day, since Lian Fei and Yao Susu were already fish caught in the net, Lin Xun naturally would not allow them to live. He needed to nip any future problems in the bud.

It wasn’t because Lin Xun was cruel and bloodthirsty. To be frank, he was rather astonished to find out that Lian Fei and Yao Susu had entered the Deva Secret Domain. In addition, they had managed to borrow the secret map’s power to arrive at this mysterious temple where a great blessing was hidden.

It was obvious that they would have used the blessing to become strong and take revenge on him in the future!

Fortunately, the couple had been unlucky and encountered Lin Xun, allowing him to finally put an end to the grudge between them.

“Brother Fei!”

At the sight of Lian Fei’s death, Yao Susu shrieked mournfully. Her face twisted with emotion as she hatefully screamed, “You…all of you will die!”

Soon after, light rapidly boiled from the map as if the power of a saint was about to explode from within it.

Toady shouted in alarm, “Oh no, that woman is trying to destroy the map and die together with us! Quickly take it from her!”

Omm!

Even without Toady’s warning, Lin Xun had already realized that it was an emergency. He immediately pulled out the Nameless Pagoda and sent out a ray of wonder-gold dao light.

It was the only thing Lin Xun currently had to seize something.

Rumble!

Wonder-gold dao light flowed through the air and instantly bound the map in Yao Susu’s hands.

However, something no one expected occurred. When the wonder-gold light touched the map, it suddenly transformed into glowing words.

Each word shimmered as if it were made from dao light, shining and filled with the immeasurable aura of a saint.

They flowed in the air, each word seemingly trying to explain the true essence of the dao.

“This…”

Lin Xun, Zhao Jingxuan, and Toady were taken aback.

Only Yao Susu had a different reaction. Amidst her rage, grief, and desperation, a look of disbelief appeared on her face when she saw the pagoda, and she involuntarily cried out, “Why is my father’s pagoda with you!?”

However, no one paid any attention to her.

Because Lin Xun and the others were shocked to discover that a change was occurring in the temple. The ancient pictures on the walls seemed to awaken from their slumber and floated out from the stone.

Next, all of them surged toward the glimmering dao words!

It was an unimaginable scene that no one could have anticipated. The pictures on the walls were suddenly swallowed by the dao words.

In the end, the ancient pictures were all absorbed by the dao words. After which, the words began to rearrange and a Buddhist verse appeared in the air―

“Treading the starry path, strolling up Kunlun.

Grabbing the sun and moon with a sleeve, holding the heavens in the palm.

I come from the world of mortals, gently tapping on the gate of longevity.

Using a wondrous art to see one’s true nature, to bestow Dao onto the fated person.”

The dao words were imprinted into the air, glimmering with saint light. Each word gave off a deafening and holy aura that would shake anyone’s heart.

There was nothing but silence for a time.

No one had expected that such an inconceivable event would occur when the wonder-dao light touched the secret map.

Indescribable dao words had appeared, the ancient pictures on the walls had floated off, fused into the dao words, and transformed them into a Buddhist verse!

“I understand, no wonder Father kept saying the secret map was incomplete and could not seek the true blessing. It turns out that the secret had been hidden in the pagoda all along. It’s a pity that my father never realized their connection…”

Yao Susu’s soul seemed to drain from her body as if she had suffered a terrible blow.

She seemed to have realized something.

All of a sudden, something clicked in Lin Xun’s head and he questioned, “Your father obtained the pagoda and secret map from this place?”

Yao Susu bitterly laughed as a peculiar light gleamed her eyes. “You wish to know? But I refuse to tell you!”

Blood suddenly flowed from the corner of her mouth, and her life force rapidly faded as she crumpled to the ground.

Toady rushed forward to check. Soon after, he shook his head and said, “It’s hopeless, she shattered her heart and channels. Even an immortal would not be able to save her.”

“She’s a formidable person. It’s a pity that she was overly foolish. Even if she doesn’t tell us, we can still tell that the secret map must be related to the pagoda. Moreover, both of these treasures likely originated from this temple.”

Zhao Jingxuan kept the Nine Dragons Cauldron as she pondered.
