The Prodigies War

Chapter 1206 Tomb World

Lin Xun readily agreed, but before taking action, he quickly restored all the nearby damage.

Then, he asked Ji Xingyao and the others to enter the tunnel first, while he waved his sleeve without leaving any trace.

Buzz!

Immediately, the cracked rocks around the tomb were patched up as if nothing happened, and the tunnel vanished.

At the end of the tunnel, it was unexpectedly bright and filled with warm and refreshing air mixed with an easeful atmosphere of peace and tranquility.

It was hard to believe that under the mysterious ancient tomb hid such a pure land and not a dark and depressing space.

Controlling their excitement, everyone cautiously moved forward.

Soon, to their astonishment, they found that the space under the tomb was endlessly big.

While they all started to feel smaller and smaller.

This was not an illusion. The area under the tomb could best be described as a folding space as it looked ordinary, but in fact turned out to be infinitely vast!

Crash—

Ahead, the sound of thunderous waves could be heard, and soon, a giant glacial lake came into view.

Beams of ice-white sword qi swept out from it like rolling icicles, each one bright and razor-sharp, and exuding a frightening aura.

The air abruptly became biting cold, and the ground around the lake formed a thick layer of transparent ice.

Even Lin Xun and the others shuddered as soon as they arrived. The chill in the air seemed to penetrate into their bones and soul.

In the lake, snow-white sword qi was densely congregated and rolled like waves of ice, adding to the freezing temperature.

But almost immediately, everyone’s eyes were drawn to a snow-white ice lotus resting in the center of the lake.

The lotus was crystal clear, beautiful, and sacred-looking. At its stamen, a snow-white, almost transparent flame was burning magnificently.

As the flame flickered in the stamen, the snow-white sword qi around the lake rolled up like it was resonating with each other. It was a wonderful scene.

Gulp!

It was unknown who swallowed saliva, but it was particularly noticeable in this silent atmosphere.

But no one seemed to care.

Everyone could tell that an Origin Dao Fire was growing within the ice lotus in the lake, and it was extremely high grade!

“Brother Zhen, have you ever heard of a similar Dao Fire like that?” Mo Tianhe’s blazing eyes were fixed in the distance.

“It looks like the Heavenly Snow Wonder Fire, but the Origin Dao Fire before us is of a much superior grade!”

Zhen Yunfeng’s eyes lit up so bright that they almost shot out lightning.

Before this, they all already speculated that Origin Dao Fires had to be hidden under the tomb, but when they saw it with their own eyes, they still could not control their delight and excitement.

It was a great fortune that was so rare that it could only be encountered by a lucky chance!

“But there is only one Origin Dao Fire at the moment. Even if we get our hands on it, how should we divide it?” Ji Xingyao’s words instantly extinguished everyone’s joy and excitement and made them glance furtively at one another.

Unexpectedly, Yin Xue said aloud, “Fellow Cultivator Jin guided us here. I propose that we let Fellow Cultivator Jin have the first one.”

The others looked at each other in dismay, eyes flashing.

Even Lin Xun was a little surprised. “You don’t need to do that. I can tell that this place is extremely magical, and there must be a lot of Origin Dao Fire here. I am already very grateful to be able to join you all. As for the Dao Fire, I will leave it up to you all to decide its owner.”

Everyone’s expression eased, and their gaze towards Lin Xun became much softer.

Zhen Yunfeng took a deep breath and guaranteed, “Brother Jin, I am determined to be your friend. Don’t worry, I will definitely help you fight for an Origin Dao Fire that you will be satisfied with in this operation.”

Mo Tianhe echoed, “Yes, Fellow Cultivator Jin is not only generous but also righteous, and he has shared weal and woe with us. He is no longer an outsider. Fellow Cultivator Jin, if there’s anything you need help with during the upcoming operations, I am willing to lend a helping hand.”

The others nodded.

At first, Ji Xingyao thought that Lin Xun was an idiot to give up on the fantastic opportunity.

But now, she vaguely understood his reasoning.

If Lin Xun unhesitatingly fought for the opportunity in front, he would definitely ignite discontent in Zhen Yunfeng and Mo Tianhe and make them harbor ill feelings which could lead to conflict later on.

This would only put Lin Xun in a disadvantageous situation in the operation.

However, Lin Xun took a step back and that gained him respect and favor from both Zhen Yunfeng and Mo Tianhe. This would not make the relationship between them tense and even benefit him later on.

However, Lin Xun would burst into laughter if he knew that was what Ji Xingyao was thinking.

This was because his reason for stepping back was completely different. After several sessions of observation and investigations using his spirit sense power and the Chaofeng Eye, he was certain that, although the Origin Dao Fire was of a rare grade, it was not suitable for him.

Therefore, he shone splendidly.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t mind ruining any friendship he had with Mo Tianhe and Zhen Yunfeng.

In the end, after negotiation, the Origin Dao Fire would belong to Zhen Yunfeng.

Boom!

Unable to hold back his excitement, Zheng Yunfeng launched into action by activating his cultivation. His right hand turned as black as ink with bright dao light circulating it as he stretched it towards the center of the lake.

Chi!

It was only halfway there when a ray of snow-white sword qi shot out of the lake, blocking his attack.

At the same time, a creature as white as snow took shape.

“Amazing! In this land of fortune there are actually living creatures guarding the Origin Dao Fire. This proves that the Dao Fire is extraordinary!” Zhen Yunfeng’s eyes brightened.

Without another word, he wielded his hand into the air and launched a powerful palm strike. At his level, a casual strike could incinerate mountains and drown seas.

The snow creature exploded into smithereens!

“That guy’s combat strength isn’t bad and should be stronger than Mo Tianhe,” Lin Xun thought to himself.

Rumble!

Unexpectedly, the lake of ice and snow raged turbulently as dozens of snow creatures rushed out one after another, transforming into fierce beasts, birds and monsters, all with terrifying auras.

“Their strengths can be compared to experts at the second longevity tribulation!” Ji Xingyao exclaimed in surprise.

Zhen Yunfeng’s hair billowed in the air, and his eyes flashed like cold lightning. He folded his hand into a strange hand seal, and a dazzling thunderstorm started to rage.

As an ancient-era eccentric genius from the North God Holy District, a hidden holy land, and a tyrannical figure who had set foot into the supreme king stage, Zhen Yunfeng fully demonstrated the unparalleled power that lived up to his name.

With a series of popping noises, the dozens of snow creatures exploded into ice shards, killed by Zhen Yunfeng’s overwhelming power. He seemed invincible making a clean sweep of all enemies.

This made Lin Xun certain of one thing. An expert who had set foot into the supreme king stage should at least have the potential to kill ordinary longevity kings!

But a supreme king like Zhen Yunfeng could do more than that.

In other words, ordinary second longevity tribulation kings were also no match for Zhen Yunfeng.

Chi!

In the center of the lake, a streak of snow-white Dao Fire leapt out as though it sensed that something bad was going to happen. It cut through the air with incredible speed and was about to escape.

But Zhen Yunfeng caught it with his big hand, clutching it tight in his palm, and dragged it back.

When he opened his palm, he saw a snow-white Dao Fire shaped like a sword suspended in the air, swaying back and forth while spewing a rain of gorgeous light.

“What a precious treasure! Now that I have you, I will definitely be able to create a Saint treasure in the future!” Zhen Yunfeng laughed energetically.

Everyone else felt a pang of envy.

In the outside world, not many things could attract the attention of supreme kings like them, but Origin Dao Fire could be considered as one of the rarest and precious treasures to them.

Rumble!

After losing the Origin Dao Fire, the ice lake instantly sunk in and vanished from everyone’s vision at an astonishing speed.

“Let’s keep moving. Next, I will help everyone seek a similar fortune!” Zhen Yunfeng was in high spirits.

Although his enthusiastic attitude seemed a little arrogant, he showed every intention of sharing the treasures with everyone. This made Lin Xun feel relieved.

As everyone predicted, quite a few Origin Dao Fire were contained under the tomb.

In just a few minutes, a strange sacred tree loomed ahead.

The tree’s entire body seemed to be cast from gold and iron, emitting a metallic sheen, and on its bare branch hung a brillant golden Dao Fire.

As the fire swayed, blinding rays of golden sword qi were fired in all directions, shooting into the sky with resounding clangs.

In terms of grade, it was on par with the Origin Dao Fire that Zhen Yunfeng obtained!

“The vision of a golden sword rising into the sky that we saw outside the ancient tomb earlier is very likely to be triggered by this Dao Fire, right?”

Zhan Luxiu had a crazed look in his eyes.

But according to their agreement, the Origin Dao Fire would belong to the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms.

Boom!

Mo Tianhe quickly took action, but he also faced some obstruction from several metallic creatures guarding the area. They were all formed from gold and iron and possessed tyrannical fighting power.

But in the end, they still lost to Mo Tianhe and were completely slaughtered.

Mo Tianhe successfully obtained the golden Origin Dao Fire.

At this point, everyone’s anticipation soared. Two Origin Dao Fire had been discovered, which proved that the number of Origin Dao Fire distributed around the world under the tomb far exceeded their imagination.

Next, they ran into a blue cloud drifting high in the high altitude and within it sat another Origin Dao Fire.

The fire magically transformed into a blue ancient lamp. Moreover, in terms of grade, it trumped the previous two Origin Dao Fires.

In the end, Ji Xingyao obtained it.

According to their agreement, the next Origin Dao Fire they found would belong to Lin Xun.

Naturally, Lin Xun had no objection to this. Even if the fire was unsuitable for him, he could still keep it aside and give it away in the future.

The tomb world did not disappoint. Before long, a silver flame mountain came into view.

Atop the mountain, a silvery dao fire was hovering in the air and spreading a dreamy brilliance.

“The grade of that dao fire is extraordinary!”

Zheng Yunfeng and the others all noticed that the grade of the fire was much higher than those they saw earlier, which tempted them.

Who would mind having more treasures?

But still, they held back and did not break the agreement. Lin Xun had given them all a good impression all along, and they could not take what should be his.
