The Prodigies War

Bang!

Moments later, Zhan Luxiu shook the black spear in his hand, activating an ultimate killing move. A black dragon seemed to be rushing out to swallow the sun, and his opponent was defeated, dissipating in a rain of light

But in the blink of an eye, the first fire warrior re-condensed into its original form, completely unscathed.

However, it retreated to one side.

Seeing this, Zhan Luxiu continued to charge forward and kill.

Within minutes, seventeen fire warriors were defeated one after another and retreated out of the way.

It had to be said that among the supreme kings, Zhan Luxiu was considered one of the best in terms of the strength he displayed.

But everyone furrowed their brows as they watched on.

This was because everyone could tell that Zhan Luxiu was exhausting himself, and the further he progressed, the stronger his opponents were!

Under those circumstances, he had little hope of defeating all his opponents.

As predicted, after destroying the twenty-fourth opponent, Zhan Luxiu had depleted his energy and was defeated.

He panted for breath. He was soaked entirely in sweat, and his face twisted with bitter acceptance.

A great heaven-defying fortune was right in front of him, but he could not advance any further. This blow was too much.

“Just take a rest. If I am lucky enough to pass the test, then I will help you find an Origin Dao Fire,” comforted Zhen Yunfeng.

Zhan Luxiu looked at him silently. Regardless of how unwilling he was, he had no other choice.

After this incident, the others realized that the challenge was not easy at all!

Next, Yin Xue attacked.

She was slightly stronger than Zhan Luxiu in combat, but after defeating the twenty-ninth fire warrior, she also could not withstand any longer and was defeated.

Everyone’s expressions turned solemn and serious.

“Allow me!”

Mo Tianhe approached the fire warriors in a fast attack, demonstrating his astonishing strength, which impressed everyone and made their eyes twinkle with excitement.

However, in the end, Mo Tianhe was defeated by the thirty-ninth opponent.

“How could that be?”

Everyone’s expression flickered.

Mo Tianhe was an ancient-era eccentric genius, but he also failed the challenge halfway through, which made everyone’s heart sink.

Although the fortune on the volcano in the distance was incredible, it had no significance to them if they could not even get close to it.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun was still observing and analyzing the strength of the fire warriors.

However, Mo Tianhe’s defeat still surprised him a little.

A question surfaced in his mind. How do we distinguish the strong and weak in the Supreme King Stage?

This question was likely impossible for even the saints in the world to answer.

This was because the Supreme King Stage had never existed in the past!

Whether it was Lin Xun or the other supreme kings present, they all sought and set foot onto this unprecedented stage.

But at the same time, they all lacked a clear understanding of the strength of this cultivation stage.

But now, Lin Xun had a good idea. This cultivation stage is like a blank slate and has never existed before. Why don’t I define it?

When this intention came up, it startled even himself.

But after calming down and thinking about it, he realized that although the thought was bold, it was not impossible!

Cultivation was never about sticking to the past, but to forge ahead into the future!

Since he had cultivated a path that never existed throughout the ages, he should have the courage to make new history by doing things that had never been done before!

The more Lin Xun thought about it, the more he lost control of his impulses.

But eventually, he took a deep breath and calmed down.

Defining an unprecedented cultivation stage was something that had never been done before. If saints from all over the world knew about this, then they likely would think that he was too audacious.

The world would never accept it!

But no matter what, Lin Xun decided to give it a try. At present, he might not have the ability to convince the world. But one day, when he became invincible in the supreme king stage and comprehended all the profound secrets of this cultivation stage, he would have the final say on the defining of the supreme king stage!

A sigh awakened Lin Xun from his deep thoughts.

In the distance, Ji Xingyao was returning from the battlefield, her beautiful face pale and her brows creased.

She was also defeated—defeated by the forty-third fire warrior.

The atmosphere turned tense.

“I’ll do it.” Zhen Yunfeng drew a deep breath as he stepped forward.

Unfortunately, he also failed, losing to the forty-seventh fire warrior. But he was not far away from passing the test.

“It seems that only Brother Lin might be able to successfully break through.” Zhen Yunfeng forced a smile.

The failure impacted him hugely.

“No, let me do it first!” Tired of waiting, Toady rushed out first.

A battle quickly broke out.

Surprisingly, the extremely proud green-robed youngster possessed incredible strength and seemed unstoppable!

Even Lin Xun could not help but marvel. Then, it struck him that Toady was originally an ancient-era eccentric genius. In terms of foundation, background and talent, he was in no way inferior to other ancient-era eccentric geniuses.

In the land of fortunes that was left by Burning Immortal Chen Linkong, Toady had to have obtained an unimaginable inheritance power that transformed his strength in an earthshaking way after he became a supreme king.

Unfortunately, Toady lost in the duel against the forty-ninth fire warrior.

In other words, he was just one step away from succeeding!

“Damn it, let’s do it again, I don’t believe it!” Toady was hopping mad and almost coughed up blood.

The great fortune was almost within reach, but he failed at the critical juncture. This was worse than torture!

But he only had one chance. Just when he was about to challenge again, the forty-nine fire warriors surrounded and glared at him with ice-cold expressions.

Toady’s expression morphed indefinitely, but in the end, he suppressed his bitterness and unwillingness and stormed off.

Lin Xun was the only one left who hadn’t taken the challenge.

“Brother Lin, you must avenge us.” Zhen Yunfeng gritted his teeth.

The others also nodded, sharing the same bitter hatred for the fire warriors.

It was indeed too infuriating. They discovered such a heaven-defying fortune, but they were obstructed by opponents formed from laws and rules. Anyone would be unhappy.

“Kill them! You must kill them all!” Toady made a huge fuss.

Nodding, Lin Xun marched forward.

Everyone closed their mouths and anxiously paid full attention to the coming battle, for fear of disturbing Lin Xun.

“Judging from the strength that Brother Lin showed when he killed Wu Lingdao, the Thirteenth Prince of the Golden Crow Clan, I believe those forty-nine opponents can’t stop him at all.”

Mo Tianhe continued, “We should only be concerned about how long it will take Brother Lin to deal with those damn warriors.”

“Fifteen minutes,” stated Zhen Yunfeng.

“No, I don’t think it will take more than seven and a half minutes.” Ji Xingyao thought carefully before replying.

Toady guaranteed, “You all underestimate my brother too much. In my opinion, he can take care of them all in fewer than forty-nine breaths.”

Everyone else couldn’t help but smile, thinking that the statement was a bit exaggerated.

If those fire warriors were worthless trash, then how could they possibly stop them from advancing?

Clang!

On the battlefield, Lin Xun resorted to the Broken Blade right away.

Instantly, the aura around him changed, and his solemn figure was surrounded by an imposing air that made even the world change color.

His dark eyes were calm and unfathomable as he quietly activated the newly obtained Extreme Word Inheritance!

Buzz—

The clear cry of the Broken Blade stung everyone’s eardrums and sent their spirits shaking.

Then, in the air, the dazzling, snow-white Broken Blade produced an obscure and complex array like it had just awakened from a deep slumber.

The space shattered and exploded inch after inch around it as though unable to bear the pressure.

“That…”

Everyone’s countenance changed. Even if Lin Xun hadn’t struck an attack yet, they all knew that once he released it, it would undoubtedly be extraordinary.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

As though they sensed danger, the forty-nine fire warriors all simultaneously summoned their weapons like they were about to face a formidable enemy.

“Slash!” Lin Xun spat out one word.

The order was promptly followed; the Broken Blade flashed across the battlefield.

Pu!

The first fire warrior split into two halves without even a chance to defend. The Broken Blade easily and cleanly cut through him like a block of tofu.

But before everyone could exclaim in astonishment, the Broken Blade moved to kill the second fire warrior without a pause.

Then the third, fourth, fifth…

Pu! Pu! Pu!

Explosions sounded incessantly. In everyone’s eyes, the Broken Blade seemed to be igniting firecrackers wherever it passed.

The corpse of every fire warrior burst and showered the sky with splendid light.

It resembled a dazzling and magnificent display of fireworks.

Pu!

Eventually, the slash was blocked by the forty-ninth fire warrior.

Everyone secretly sweated inside.

So abnormal!

With one strike, he defeated forty-eight fire warriors at once. His fierceness stunned and horrified Zhen Yunfeng and the others.

However, before they could relax and recover from the shock, a loud pop stung their ears.

Then, they saw the last fire warrior being split open and exploding despite the fact that it had blocked the terrifying slash!

“Th…”

An indescribable chill rushed up their spines from the bottom of their hearts to their heads. They stood paralyzed to the spot, their bodies ice-cold.

One slash!

The forty-nine fire warriors were all slaughtered!

Who would believe that?

They hadn’t taken Toady’s prediction seriously, thinking that Lin Xun couldn't pass the test within forty-nine breaths.

But the result came out.

The winner was decided with just one slash!

However, the result was totally unexpected and had a huge impact on everyone. Even Toady’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets. How can he…operate like this?

When they looked at Lin Xun again, they all looked like they had seen a ghost.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun’s heart was tumbling endlessly in his chest, unable to settle. The power of the slash also exceeded his expectations.

That’s the power of the Extreme Word Inheritance!

Lin Xun had fully activated the Sacred Combat Art, Yazi’s Rage and Water Dao Law to assist the Extreme Word Inheritance Slash and the combined destructive power could only be described as earthshakingly glorious.
