The Prodigies War

All cultivators were shaken, and their jaws dropped. Demon God Lin is too fierce! He even dared to fearlessly attack when Granny Jin He appeared!

Granny Jin He was the old woman with silver hair—A top figure from the older generation of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms who enjoyed a transcendent status and position within the sect.

In the West Infinity World, even influential figures from the ancient sects treated her with great respect. She had incredible prestige.

Zhongli Wuji assumed a solemn expression and scolded sternly, “Lin Xun, how dare you?! To kill, you offended an elder of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms! This is outrageous!”

His voice shook the heavens and stirred the audience. Is he trying to use the opportunity to ruin the relationship between Demon God Lin and the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms?

“Nonsense, if you have guts then stand up and fight!” Lin Xun snapped. He hated such a hypocritical opponent.

Zhongli Wuji looked majestic with his golden eyes throwing off sparks and his imposing aura soaring. He thundered, “You think I don’t dare to? Today, I will punish you on behalf of the heavens!”

“Stop, don’t start any more fights.”

Granny Jin He waved her hand. “If you want guys to want to battle, you can do it at the Dao Lantern Festival. At that time, even I can’t stop you from fighting to the death.” As she was speaking, she shot a look at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun felt a chill run down him. He knew that she was reminding him that even if he went on a rampage today, he couldn’t possibly kill his opponents.

The reason for that was very simple. In the shadows were countless influential figures paying close attention to their movements, and they wouldn’t allow his barbaric killings.

But Zhongli Wuji smiled slightly. “Elder is right, I’ve already told him that but unfortunately, he can’t control himself from jumping up and down like a clown. How funny!”

In response to the ridicule, Lin Xun threatened, “Remember what you said. When the Dao Lantern Festival kicks off, I am going to kill you!”

Zhongli Wuji chuckled. “Let’s see if you have the ability to do so then!”

……

The earthshaking melee came to an end.

Lin Xun did not go into the Four Seasons Pavilions, but instead left with Bai Fengliu and Yue Jianming.

There might be murderous rage bubbling in his heart, but that hadn’t clouded his mind.

Before the Dao Lantern Festival started, he wanted to find out more about it.

“Demon God Lin indeed deserves his fame!”

The duel might have ended, but the cultivators still hadn’t calmed down. They thought back to the unbelievable scenes, and they realized how powerful and fierce Lin Xun was.

“A youngster from the lower domain possesses such amazing powers! Ask yourself who in the younger generation of the West Infinity World can achieve what he has. Whoever dares to say that Demon God Lin doesn’t deserve his name again are the real ignorant ones!”

Demon God Lin had earned the admiration and respect of many cultivators. As someone from the lower domain and with no one to rely on, he formed his own splendid accomplishments and successes.

This wasn’t easy, and not even the successors from the ancient sects could do what he had.

“He single-handedly defeated two peerless geniuses and even threatened to kill Zhongli Wuji at the Dao Lantern Festival. Who else can say they are as strong and courageous as him?”

“Say, how strong do you think Demon God Lin is? It’s so abnormal!”

Lin Xun stirred up a clamor of discussions.

……

The Four Seasons Pavilion.

It was divided into nine floors, and each floor seemed like its own world with vast and boundless space.

The pavilion contained traces of ancient sages, and a dignified atmosphere could be distinctly felt inside.

As the Dao Lantern Festival drew closer, more and more geniuses from all over West Infinity World gathered in the Four Seasons Pavilion.

In the past, it would have been difficult to meet a genius talent, but the ninth floors of the Four Seasons Pavilion were all crowded with famous young geniuses. It could be called a gathering of talents.

However, there was still a distinction among the genius talents. For example, the geniuses assembled on the first floor of the Four Seasons Pavilion could never be compared to the peerless geniuses sitting on the ninth floor.

That was the gap between them.

For example, Yue Jianming was regarded as an extremely dazzling figure in the Fire Spirit Province, but when he arrived at the Four Seasons Pavillion, he was only allowed into the hall on the first floor. Even Sha Lu, a subordinate, dared to kick him out of the Four Seasons Pavilion. This was the gap between him and a peerless genius.

There wasn’t only a gap in strength between them, but also in status and identity.

For example, the people with Bai Lingxi might not be considered peerless geniuses, but they came from the Longevity Land in the South Wonder World!

That status alone was enough to qualify them to sit on the ninth floor of the Four Seasons Pavilion.

Regardless, for everyone, it was already a kind of recognition to be invited into the Four Seasons Pavilion and that honor would make many cultivators in the world envious of them.

“Demon God Lin is so savage. He’s more powerful than rumored. It’s really hard to believe that he came from the lower domain.”

“Ahh, there’s another peerless genius...There might be many unique opportunities at the Dao Lantern Festival, but the ones we can win would be pitifully few.”

“Today, I finally witnessed what earthshaking duels between peerless geniuses are like. They are all so abnormally strong that it makes us feel despair.”

The Four Seasons Pavilion was filled with endless discussions. The geniuses on every floor were still talking about the earth-shaking melee that just happened.

In a few days, the Dao Lantern Festival would kick off, and the appearance of Demon God Lin at this time brought pressure on many of them.

“Hmph, so what if he’s strong? Now that he has offended peerless figures such as Sha Liuchan, Qing Lian’er, and Zhongli Wuji, he will likely be targeted when the Dao Lantern Festival begins, and perhaps…he might meet with an accident because of his action!”

Many genius talents were in a sullen mood.

They had always regarded Lin Xun as someone who got his fame from deceiving the world, so the more dazzling he performed, the more resentful they felt.

“That’s right. Demon God Lin is only from the lower domain, so no matter how strong he is, he still has no backing. However, he still extremely arrogantly and boldly stirred up such a huge storm and brought unnecessary attention to himself and made people see him as a thorn in the way!”

Someone suddenly laughed, “You vulgar trash, all of you can only just sourly complain here. If you were to face Demon God Lin, I bet you all would cower back.”

Who said that?

Everyone’s face darkened, and their eyes simultaneously shifted in the same direction.

It was a young monk clad in a pure white robe, sitting elegantly and leisurely brewing a cup of tea.

His brows were sparse, his forehead was smooth and clear, and his eyes were as bright as the stars, glowing with wisdom. He radiated a pure and untainted aura.

All the geniuses narrowed their eyes because they sensed that the young monk was extraordinary.

Someone sneered, “I wonder which ancient temple you are from? Why do you speak so arrogantly and not have the bearing and demeanor of a monk?”

The young monk smiled subtly and took a sip of the tea before he responded casually, “A monk doesn’t lie. I am just saying what I think. If you are not convinced then you can challenge Demon God Lin to a duel. If you are not afraid to do so, then I will admit my mistake.”

Everyone’s faces darkened. This monk seems gentle and peaceful, but his words were extremely harsh.

There was a saying that when beating people do not slap them in the face, but it was obvious that this monk was very good at rubbing salt on the wound, which sparked dislike from everyone in the room.

But before they could say anything, the young monk rose to his feet and straightened his spotless white robe like an elegant snow lotus flower.

“What does it mean to be a genius talent? The most outstanding of the crowd, the leader of the stars, unfortunately, only a handful of people here can shoulder such a title,” he sighed dispiritedly as strode out of the Four Seasons Pavilion.

Everyone’s faces darkened even more. The monk had indirectly criticized them for not being qualified to be called a genius!

“Everyone seems to not agree. It doesn’t matter. Then, let me just say this, in one year when the Genius Gold Rankings reappear in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, only the true genius talents from the four great worlds will be listed on it.”

“As for everyone else here, I’m afraid that at least nine out of ten of you are not qualified to be on the Genius Gold Rankings.”

His voice was as indifferent and calm as still water. When the voice faded, the figure of the young monk had already vanished from the Four Seasons Pavilion.

Everyone’s expression altered, hearts trembling.

Genius Gold Rankings?

It was the first time that they had ever heard of it!

……

On the ninth floor of the Four Seasons Pavilion, a group of peerless geniuses sat cross-legged, including Li Qinghuan, the successor of the Cangming Sect, Mu Jianting, the successor of the Jade Emptiness Temple, and the maiden in a purple dress, the successor of Miluo Palace.

There were also a group of successors from the Longevity Land of the South Wonder World and other thirty-odd peerless figures.

Strictly speaking, the peerless figures sitting on the ninth floor of the Four Seasons Pavilion represented the strongest younger generation of the West Infinity World!

They had been discussing the details of Lin Xun’s battle. Although they each had their own opinions on Lin Xun, there was no dispute or quarreling. The atmosphere was very peaceful.

But the appearance of the young monk and his words caught all their attention.

For a moment, they were all utterly silent and still.

“Everyone, have you heard of the Genius Gold Rankings?” someone broke the silence.

Everyone shook their heads. It was the first time they had heard of this.

Even Bai Lingxi and the others from the Longevity Land had blank looks. It was also the first time that they had heard of it.

The person continued to ask, “Then, does anyone know who the Buddhist friend just now is?”

Everyone fell silent again. In the West Infinity World, there were very few cultivation sects and clans with a Buddhist origin. But they had never heard of such a maverick young Buddhist disciple in the younger generation.

“If my guess is correct, he is a successor from the Great Zen Temple of a Hidden Holy Land.”

The silent atmosphere lasted a while before a cold but pleasant voice rang out like the sound of heaven on the highest floor of the Four Seasons Pavilion.
