The Prodigies War-Novel

As time passed, more and more cultivators were teleported from the nine mountain peaks, sparking a lot of commotion and discussions.

The cultivators who had never set foot on the mountain peaks were filled with jealousy while those who had, returned high spirited.

However, they were all surprised to find that everyone received a completely different harvest when they returned from the mountain peaks!

Some made a breakthrough in their cultivation level.

Some mastered an imago power.

Some saw their spirits undergo transformations.

Some obtained a secret ancient art!

The most unbelievable thing was that even the ancient secret arts obtained were all different, covering every manifestation of nature and all streams, including the Mahayana secrets of the Buddhist sect, the profound arts of the Daoist sect, and other unique secret arts that were neither Buddhist or Daoist in nature.

Additionally, each secret art perfectly matched the innate aptitude of the recipient, which made the cultivators unable to set foot into the ancient hall even more jealous.

However, no one dared to snatch these harvests from others. The restriction power was too vast and terrifying—It could instantly kill whoever dared to seize the opportunity from other people.

“What a great opportunity! A single word contained a thousand ways. Such an opportunity is very rare even in ancient times!” Many people sighed bitterly as they watched from afar.

It was perhaps the most tragic outcome for the successors of Spirit Treasure Holy Land because they missed out on such a rare opportunity due to their duel with Lin Xun and Xiao Ran’s carelessness.

Now, everyone was looking at them differently. Some looked at them pitifully, and some gloated at their misfortunes.

The will of heaven was unpredictable!

The faces of Su Xingfeng, Wen Xiang and Yun Che were already livid. Even Xiao Ran’s face was overcast.

They had tried to gain an advantage, but ended up worse off. They had suffered too great of a loss this time.

“Hahaha, I found a trace of vague memory from the past! I grasped an innate secret art from the blood! I will set foot onto the pinnacle of the Great Dao! It won’t be long till I am on top of the world!”

A burst of strange laughter rang in the air, followed by Toady, who was in a green robe, as he got teleported to the foot of the mountain. His face was alight with triumph and smugness.

However, he suddenly froze where he stood. He felt waves of cold murderous intent sweeping over him, making his hair stand on end.

He turned his head to see Su Xingfeng and the others glaring at him with dark and unpleasant expressions.

“Damn it! Why am I so unlucky?”

Toady leapt three feet into the air and frantically bolted. The excitement and complacency in his heart instantly vanished.

How would he have thought that he would encounter so many enemies right away?

However, he quickly found that although Su Xingfeng and the others were glowering at him and emitting intense murderous intent, they didn’t dare to touch him.

A thought struck Toady and his eyes lit up. He realized that the situation was a little strange.

“Stop talking nonsense, I will give you a chance to live—hand over all the treasures on you, and I will spare you death!” Wen Xiang thundered.

“Who do you think you are?” Toady cast a sidelong glance at him.

“What? We intend to let you go, but do you want to die instead?” Wen Xiang’s face darkened.

The murderous intent around Su Xingfeng and Yun Che grew stronger and stronger.

They stared at Toady like he was a dead person.

Toady's face paled a little. He felt a little uneasy knowing that he was no match for them on his own.

But he found it strange that they still hadn’t made a move despite their aggressiveness and murderous intent.

“Hahaha, look, the successors of Spirit Treasure Holy Land are fighting again. It seems they are jealous and want to force the green-robed youngster to hand over his treasures.”

A burst of mocking laughter sounded in the distance, followed by everyone roaring with laughter.

Su Xingfeng and the others almost crushed their teeth in anger.

Bang!

Suddenly, Wen Xiang made a move. A silvery necklace flashed across the air, slaughtering a cultivator from afar and splattering blood everywhere.

“How dare you kill here?!”

Many people fumed.

“Why won’t I dare to? Most of you didn’t get any opportunities yet you have the audacity to laugh at us! Do you think we can’t do anything to you guys?!” Wen Xiang uttered coldly.

Many cultivators fell silent and their faces paled slightly.

Only then did they realize that the restriction power only protected those who obtained an opportunity!

In other words, those without one were still at risk of being killed in a conflict.

“Hmph!”

Wen Xiang, Su Xingfeng and the others felt much better when they saw shock wash over the other cultivators’ faces.

“The brother in a green robe, don’t be afraid. They won’t dare to kill you,” someone sent a voice transmission to Toady and told him the reason.

But they didn’t do so out of kind intention. Instead, they wanted to deliberately provoke Toady to fight with Su Xingfeng and the others.

Those guys acted tough to scare me. I can’t take this. The corners of Toady’s lips twitched violently.

“Little brat, did you just say that you want the treasures on me?” Toady smiled.

Wen Xiang became guarded, but said aloud, “I am giving you a chance to atone for your sins. If you do as we told you, we may consider letting you live.”

“Live?” Toady snorted.

He pounced up and aimed a slap at Wen Xiang. “Go to hell! I have to slap you to death today. You evil little brat!”

“You dare!” Wen Xiang was so furious that his eyes almost popped out. He wasn’t the least afraid of Toady and was even confident that he could easily kill him.

Unfortunately, he had no choice but to dart away. He was afraid of something unexpected happening if he fought Toady because of the terrifying restriction power.

Toady’s courage skyrocketed when he saw Wen Xiang’s response and the last shred of wavering in his heart was swept away. With a strange smile, he chased after Wen Xiang. “There is nothing that I don’t dare to do in this world! I’m going to beat your little butt!”

“How dare you insult me!?”

“Hahaha, I’ll humiliate you. What are you going to do? Do you have the guts to fight back?”

“Just you wait! When we get out of here, I will skin you and crush your bones!”

“Hey, little brat, you dare to threaten me! I’m going to beat you to death!”

The area turned chaotic. Toady desperately chased Wen Xiang and launched all sorts of attacks to kill him. Divine lights constantly beamed across the area, full of murderous qi.

However, Wen Xiang dodged again and again. He dared not to fight back no matter how furious he was.

Toady became more and more complacent and smug. His wild laughter constantly echoed throughout the world.

In the distance, the cultivators of the other clans were all roaring with laughter. Their mocking voices infuriated Wen Xiang to the point that he almost coughed up blood.

Su Xingfeng and the others were just as red with embarrassment and shame. When had the successors of Spirit Treasure Holy Land ever fallen to such a state?

“You are just relying on the protection from the restriction power, don’t you feel ashamed?” Yun Che scolded.

“Kid, how dare you call me shameless?!” Toady raged.

He gave up on attacking Wen Xiang and went hunting down Yun Che instead.

Yun Che had badly wounded him on the mountain peak. How could he miss such a good opportunity to kill him now?

Yun Che had no choice but to dodge and flee.

In the end, Toady still failed to vent his hatred and shifted his target to Su Xingfeng. Chaos descended upon the battlefield.

The people watching from afar were more and more entertained, laughing so hard that they were almost in tears.

It was the first time that they realized the green-robed youth was so daring and caused more trouble than the young demon god!

Meanwhile, Zhao Jingxuan was teleported to the foot of the mountain. Her beautiful face scrunched up when she saw the chaos. That Toady is messing about again!

However, when she saw Su Xingfeng, Wen Xiang, and Yun Che looking discomposed, miserable and embarrassed, she couldn’t stop a smile from spreading across her plump lips.

“Junior Sister Zhao, tell him to stop.”

Xiao Ran’s expression was ice-cold mixed with unprecedented anger. “You should know that if this quarrel continues, it will only damage the reputation of our Spirit Treasure Holy Land.”

The smile froze on Zhao Jingxuan’s lips, and her eyes glinted coldly. She thought back to Xiao Ran attacking her as they entered the hall.

“I think it’s funny,” she said indifferently, staring directly at Xiao Ran. “Actually, I also want to have a little duel with you, Senior Brother.”

“You…”

Xiao Ran’s expression slightly changed. He took a deep breath immediately and explained, ”Junior Sister Zhao, I know you hate me, but everyone is just fighting for opportunities. I also didn’t hurt you in the hall. Don’t you understand?”

“Do you want me to understand?” Zhao Jingxuan’s lips quirked into a mocking smile. “Well, why don’t you let me attack you from behind once then?”

Xiao Ran finally realized the seriousness of the problem.

Zhao Jingxuan had always greatly respected and admired him, but now, she regarded him as an enemy.

Unexpectedly, she stopped Toady. “If you continue to mess around, you won’t be able to kill them, but will only make others laugh at us.”

Toady chuckled. “You’re right.”

Xiao Ran breathed a sigh of relief, but Su Xingfeng, Wen Xiang and Yun Che couldn’t be happy anymore.

They were chased and attacked in front of so many people and couldn’t fight back. How could they feel any better after being humiliated like that?

“You are right. After all, I am a successor of the Spirit Treasure Holy Land. I need to protect the reputation of the sect, but that doesn’t include you guys.” Zhao Jingxuan’s expression turned cold as she looked at Xiao Ran. “I will forever remember what happened today. I will settle it with you all one by one in the future!” Her voice was unwavering.

She thought of Lin Xun being attacked and encircled by Su Xingfeng and the others. She also thought of the sneak attack she suffered.

She couldn’t forgive them after everything they had done!
