The Prodigies War

Clang!

Without any hesitation, Lin Xun inserted the Broken Blade into the pile of dazzling jade stones.

The Broken Blade buzzed and vibrated like it was cheering. The tip of the blade was filled with an obscure aura that began to frantically absorb the vitality in the stones.

Lin Xun’s eyes gleamed in excitement and anticipation. He had a feeling that, even if the Broken Blade failed to transform, then its power would improve significantly.

He picked up a piece of jade stone and crushed it in his hand. As he expected, it contained a lush green leaf shaped like a coin and was oozing with vitality.

Lin Xun attempted to absorb it.

Immediately, a current of warm vitality poured into his body and rippled through him, setting every one of his pores open. He could feel qi and energy flooding his body like he was about to become an immortal.

The energy he had consumed on his journey had been restored and returned to its original peak state.

But he was most amazed by the fact that even his spirit power was strengthened!

“What mysterious vitality! It contains an unfathomable dao aura.”

After a careful check, he realized that the benefits were not limited to his energy levels and spirit power. Even his flesh, muscles and bones had been nourished. It might be extremely subtle, but it was still a wonderful effect.

A ray of murderous intent suddenly sped towards Lin Xun!

With a flash, he vanished using the Hornless Ice Dragon Step.

Boom!

A bone spear swept past where he was and firmly pierced into the ground in the distance, whipping up a sky full of dust and dirt and blasting a deep hole into the ground.

If Lin Xun was a little slower, then the spear would have skewered through his head!

His dark eyes became chilling and threatening and he had already drawn the No-Nonsense Bow and aimed it in a certain direction.

There, a Magi Brute expert appeared like a shadow. It was almost impossible to notice him in the foggy stone forest.

It was an Enlightened Spirit expert of the Darkness Tribe!

“If you don’t want to die then get lost. Our Magi Brute Race has already occupied this territory,” threatened the Darkness Tribe expert while his gaze was fixed on the place where the broken blade was inserted into.

The pile of dazzling jadestones was so eye-catching that it couldn’t be covered up.

“You are the one who doesn’t want to live!” Lin Xun fired an arrow as he spoke.

Bang!

The blood-red bowstring produced a clear cry while the bone body roared and rumbled like thunder.

“You are—” The Enlightened Spirit expert’s pupils shrank and his face distorted. It was as though he recognized Lin Xun.

Screaming, he darted to the other side to evade.

Pu!

But it was too late. The arrow had already pierced through the left of his chest and his body was blasted to the ground like it was struck by a tremendous force. Fresh blood sprayed everywhere like a fountain.

“How dare a piece of trash like you occupy territories?”

Kacha!

With a flash, Lin Xun stamped his foot and crushed the Darkness Tribe expert’s chest.

“…It’s you…Lin…Lin…” The Darkness Tribe Enlightened Spirit expert was killed before he finished speaking. He was considered a top figure but, unfortunately for him, he ran into Lin Xun.

When Lin Xun was going through the spoils, he discovered a bag containing a dozen of many different kinds of jade stones.

It made him realize that not only he had discovered the secret, but the other experts also likely knew about it now.

The Broken Blade was still absorbing the power. From the cryptic glow around the blade tip, Lin Xun speculated that it would take several minutes to refine the vitality within the jade stones.

Soon, he scrunched his brows.

He heard a sonic boom from the dense fog coming his way.

……

“Quick, this way!”

“Ying Tong must have encountered some kind of danger. I heard his tragic scream.”

“I want to see which human bastard dares to act so boldly!”

A dozen of Magi Brute experts had gathered in the stone forest, emitting intense murderous intent. They were all Enlightened Spirit experts.

That kind of power could be regarded as a top force on the Blood Kill Battlefield and could start a small-scale war. After all, Enlightened Spirits were rarely seen.

It was even rarer to see more than ten Enlightened Spirit experts dispatched at the same time.

Generally, an Enlightened Spirit expert often acted as commanders in battles on the Blood Kill Battlefield because their identity, status and power were already top-notch.

However, it was a different story in the Mulberry Woodland. After all, the place was too terrifying and dangerous. Even Life Death Stage Kings had to act with caution, so Enlightened Spirits experts often traveled in groups.

“Have you heard that the young genius Lin Twelve of the empire has also come to the Mulberry Woodland? A group of fierce and ruthless characters in our Magi Brute Race is searching for him to kill him.”

“I heard the news many days ago. I also heard that King Lei Xiao vowed to kill Lin Twelve in the Mulberry Woodland. He wants to not only avenge She Zhen, but also seize his mysterious bow!”

The Enlightened Spirit experts exchanged conversations as they cautiously moved forward.

“Haha, the kid has guts. He dared to come to the Mulberry Woodland alone. We can’t touch him if he decided to hide in the camp of the empire, but now...Haha, if he doesn’t die here, I will kill myself!” sneered an Enlightened Spirit expert disdainfully. The Magi Brute Race no doubt had the upper hand in the Mulberry Woodland in terms of numbers. Moreover, they had three Life Death Stage Kings watching over the operation.

It would be very strange if they failed to kill Lin Twelve!

Pu!

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a bloody hole split his neck, and because the force was so strong, his entire head was blasted across the air.

The other Enlightened Spirit experts froze for a second before they subconsciously darted away.

Scarlet blood spewed everywhere. The Magi Brute expert had just vowed that he would kill himself if he failed to kill Lin Xun and the next second, his neck was pierced and his headless body collapsed to the ground.

Karma?

The other Magi Brute experts broke out in cold sweat and their faces distorted with terror.

They screamed out in anger, “Everyone be careful, Lin Twelve must be nearby!”

“He was killed with one blow...The rumors are true, the little bastard’s bow is terrifying!”

As they roared, they each brought out their treasures, narrowed their eyes vigilantly and spread out like frightened hedgehogs.

It was understandable that they were so panic-stricken. Rumors about Lin Xun had long spread throughout the Magi Brute army, and his feat of killing Man Jiu, a half-step king, also caused an uproar.

Everyone finally understood why the human youth was so powerful. All he had was a mysterious bone bow and a black arrow obtained from the depths of the Tiger Canyon mine.

How could they not panic after witnessing their comrade die instantly before their eyes?

He was too terrifying!

His arrows flew so silently that no Enlightened Spirit expert was able to detect it. That coupled with the various rumors about him was enough to unnerve even a half-step king.

“This is bad! It’s impossible to detect the little bastard in this thick fog!” someone roared.

Pu!

But before his voice faded, he was shot dead on the spot. He died a worse death than his comrade. An arrow skewered his mouth to his head!

Another Enlightened Spirit expert had suddenly died before they could even detect traces of the enemy.

The remaining Enlightened Spirit experts were chilled to the bone. They were left facing a terrifying situation.

The enemy seemed invisible, appearing out of nowhere to strike a fatal blow at any time. Worst of all, they couldn’t locate him in the dense fog of the stone forest.

It suddenly became deathly still and silent.

No one dared to utter a word. They believed that Lin Xun was using their voices to judge their location!

However, the cruel reality broke their speculation.

Another Enlightened Spirit expert instantly died. An arrow was shot through his skull and splattered blood and flesh everywhere.

“Run!”

Everyone lost their fighting spirit and almost broke down. They couldn’t detect the enemy, but the enemy seemed to be able to sense them. How could they fight against him?

They bolted in a panic like stray dogs.

In the process, another Enlightened Spirit expert was killed. An arrow pierced his buttock and nailed him to the ground. He lay screaming on the ground for a long while before dying.

Calmness was quickly returned to the area.

Before long, Lin Xun’s figure loomed in the blood-colored fog. He drew the No-Nonsense Bow, scanning the surroundings. Only after he confirmed that all the enemies had fled and no one was hiding did he leave the area.

As he made his way back, he was carrying four extra bags in his hand. These were the spoils he picked up. Among them were some peculiar items.

There were various jade stones, some blood-stained iron fragments, some broken bronze pieces, and some unknown things.

They were the items that the Magi Brute experts collected from the Mulberry Woodland, so they wouldn’t be ordinary treasures.

Lin Xun didn’t look at them closely. When he returned, the pile of jade stones on the ground had already been refined by the Broken Blade.

Clang!

He pulled out the Broken Blade and noticed that its jet-black surface had become almost transparent, and the blade was emitting a brilliant starlight-like mist.

Some runes were finally visible on the surface of the Broken Blade.

Unfortunately, there was only a small section of runes and it was impossible to pry into its mystery.

However, Lin Xun knew that the Broken Blade had changed. It felt as light as a feather in his hand, and its power had grown tremendously compared to before!

He strongly resisted the urge to test the power of the Broken Blade. He took a deep breath, turned around and left. He knew that he should leave the area as soon as possible.

Shua!

Not long after Lin Xun left, one figure after another whizzed past, each exuding a frightening aura. The invisible power emanating from them alone dispersed the blood-red fog and cleared up the area completely.
