The Prodigies War

Bai Longting was joining the fray!

The experts present were reinvigorated. After all, Bai Longting was one of the most highly regarded hegemon-class experts in the Upper Nine Realms for the past two years.

In fact, his present prestige was comparable to Lin Xun’s from two years ago.

Bai Longting was naturally exceptionally talented and boasted superb battle prowess. It was even rumored that he would soon be able to trigger the seventh longevity tribulation!

As such, everyone was naturally excited to have such a hegemon-class expert on their side.

"Must die? Who the hell do you think are to make such a bold claim?"

With an ice-cold expression, Lin Xun smashed a nearby expert to a pulp with a single punch before he rose into the air and charged at Bai Longting.

"You're too arrogant."

Bai Longting’s expression remained indifferent as he lightly waved his feather fan. A five-colored stream of light emerged and transformed into a five-element wheel that rumbled through the air like a giant millstone.

Five Elements Divine Wheel!

It was a terrifying longevity-grade dao art that possessed the Law Power of the five elements. When the five elements converged, it produced power that could grind away at the universe itself and crush all things.

Moreover, when the Five Elements Divine Wheel rotated, the five grand dao powers would harmonize to circulate endlessly into infinity.

Rumble!

Space shattered and collapsed. The power Bai Longting displayed shocked everyone and elicited several gasps.

Lin Xun was unfazed and advanced instead of retreating. The Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer Dao circulated around him, causing him to resemble a giant abyss that could span across the void and was boundless without limit!

"He’s rushing in?!"

Several people were taken aback.

"That’s no different from courting death!"

Meanwhile, Bai Longting inwardly sneered. His Five Elements Divine Wheel could infinitely produce power and was one of his killing moves that even fellow supreme heaven prides would struggle to defend against. In his eyes, Lin Xun’s decision to charge straight in was foolhardy at best.

When the two parties finally collided, however, Bai Longting felt as if his Five Elements Divine Wheel had plunged into a quagmire.

Layers and layers of terrifying abrasive power revolved around it like crazy, trapping the Five Elements Divine Wheel in place. It was unable to break free from the dreadful power no matter how wildly it thrashed about.

"This..."

Bai Longting's expression changed slightly.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun suddenly spread out his arms. With a loud rumble, the giant abyss abruptly expanded and crushed the Five Elements Divine Wheel inch by inch while devouring every speck of its power and remains.

From a distance, it looked as if the wheel had been swallowed whole!

The crowd’s jaws dropped. Had they just witnessed the force of Lin Xun’s charge destroy Bai Longting's terrifying attack?

Bai Longting let out a muffled grunt and staggered as his qi and blood churned erratically. It was the recoil of having his killing move destroyed.

Before he could recover, Lin Xun had already closed in and threw a punch.

Rumble!

The air exploded like boiling water as a blast of simple yet resplendent fist-force emerged.

The fist-force contained dao light and throbbed with such devastating power that space uncontrollably collapsed around it.

Several experts held their breaths, not daring to imagine how terrifying the blow was.

It was a punch that had attained Divine Connection!

"Five Elements Seal, shatter it!"

A rare look of graveness flashed across Bai Longting’s face. The grand dao power of the five elements gathered around him and transformed into a giant seal that resembled a divine mountain floating in the air!

Rumble~

An earth-shaking collision sound boomed as a horrifying torrent of dao light unfurled from the epicenter. Several experts failed to evade, causing them to stagger backward as they repeatedly coughed blood. This showed how terrifying the clash was.

In the next moment, Bai Longting was seen stumbling several dozen steps backward in the air, creating a cavity in the fabric of space with every step.

By the time he managed to stabilize himself, his complexion had become rather pale and he couldn’t help but cough a mouthful of blood.

On the other hand, Lin Xun’s figure was immaculate and completely untouched like an unrivaled demon god.

Everyone was shocked by this scene.

They had been filled with expectation when Bai Longting first joined the fray, believing that he could go toe to toe with Lin Xun.

Who could have imagined that Lin Xun would crush Bai Longting in their initial exchange?!

He was even coughing blood!

The drastic contrast made them wonder just how powerful Demon God Lin had grown.

Numerous people’s hearts began to tremble.

"You can only say I’m arrogant because you don’t even know what it means to be truly strong!"

Lin Xun wasn’t the least bit interested in stopping and advanced toward Bai Longting again.

Rumble!

At this moment, however, a Black Mystic Battle Spear suddenly shot through the air like a laser beam and ruthlessly thrust toward Lin Xun at an inconceivable speed.

The wielder was none other than Underworld Son!

Clad in battle armor and exuding a monstrous killing intent, he struck with a swift ferocity akin to a thunderbolt.

Fast! Too fast!

No one could have expected that such a prestigious figure would launch a sneak attack that would catch anyone off guard.

Clang!

A shower of sparks erupted from an old blood-stained shield that had appeared behind Lin Xun and narrowly blocked the attack.

"Damnit! My Void Cycling Six Powers Shield!"

Underworld Son's face turned incomparably ugly as he trembled with rage.

Previously, he had been slaughtered so badly by Lin Xun that he barely managed to escape with a wisp of his spirit. In the process, he lost two of his greatest treasures, one of which was the sealed Alpha Saint Weapon, the Yuantu Sword.

The other was this old bloodstained shield named the Void Cycling Six Powers Shield, which was also a remarkable ancient treasure.

Underworld Son never imagined that he would be thwarted by his treasure after finding the perfect opening to ambush Lin Xun...

It made him so angry that he nearly coughed blood.

From start to end, Lin Xun didn’t even turn his head nor pay any attention to Underworld Son. Instead, his spirit sense locked onto Bai Longting as he lunged at the latter.

Boom!

Despite Bai Longting’s best efforts to resist, he was repeatedly beaten back as he dodged time and time again. He trembled, feeling so unbearable that he nearly coughed blood. It felt as if he was fighting a mountain that was suppressing all of his strength.

It finally dawned upon him that he had severely underestimated his opponent this time!

It was exactly as the rumors had described. Only after personally facing Demon God Lin would one understand just how tiny and weak they were.

Bai Longting had not believed this in the past.

Now, however, he had no choice but to believe it!

Thud!

Bai Longting was sent flying by a heavy punch. Blood sprayed from his nose and mouth, drawing gasps from the watching crowd.

"Attack!"

Underworld Son rushed at Lin Xun again. With a jerk of the Black Mystic Battle Spear, several tempests swept forth, shredding even the fabric of space.

At the same time, several other formidable individuals also attacked from different directions.

They could tell that Bai Longting alone couldn't suppress Demon God Lin’s momentum. Hence, they needed to work together.

Rumble!

Unrivaled sword-will shot forth. Gu Tianyi had attacked. His killing aura rushed into the sky as the image of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood surfaced behind him.

A long, red dragon-like whip rose into the air as it produced a shower of beautiful glowing petals. Its wielder was a slender woman bathed in golden light.

Omm!

A snow-bright battle blade crossed the sky, splashing murky blood-colored blade qi that resembled smoke from a fire.

Its wielder was a black-robed man with a halberd-shaped beard who gave off maniacal blade-will.

The battlefield descended into chaos as all kinds of dao arts, dao lights, and treasures wove together into a maelstrom of destruction, producing brilliant light that illuminated the surroundings.

All of these attacks were targeted at Lin Xun!

It was an earth-shaking sight that would make anyone feel powerlessness and despair.

Lin Xun's originally unstoppable momentum finally began to falter. He was surrounded, with enemies on all sides, forcing him to fall back to a passive approach instead.

"Bai Longting isn’t a match for you, but will you be able to stop multiple experts on his level?"

In the distance, Chi Yao's eyes flickered in thought. Various emotions flitted through her heart as she watched Lin Xun.

If it was one-on-one, she was certain that no one present would be his match.

However, no one was stupid enough to fight Lin Xun alone at this juncture!

"It's too difficult for a single person to turn this situation around!"

Chi Yao struggled internally, unable to decide whether she should join in as well.

Compared to the blessing in A’lu’s possession, she cared more about the piece of Bodhi wood Lin Xun owned!

For Chi Yao, obtaining the Bodhi wood was unquestionably better than obtaining a huge blessing.

"Lin Xun, it’s difficult for a single person to face many people alone. So what if you're stronger? Aren’t you still going to die this time?"

Bai Longting had regained his composure. The expression in his eyes was chillingly cold. He would make sure that Lin Xun died this time.

Lin Xun's strength made Bai Longting feel gravely threatened in a way he couldn’t properly describe. He would never be at peace in the future if Lin Xun was allowed to live.

"Attack!"

Underworld Son’s expression was chillingly eerie as he attacked like a madman. He appeared to be in a state of unparalleled exhilaration.

Presently, Lin Xun was alone and surrounded by at least eight formidable hegemon-tier individuals. There was already no meaning to this battle because he was destined to be killed!

"Dao Friend Lin, don't blame us for being merciless. This is the struggle for the dao where there is no room for pity or mercy."

"Since you obstructed us from obtaining the blessing, there can only be death for you!"

"Hehe, dying at our hands will at least preserve your reputation."

The others spoke out one after another amidst the fierce battle. Their expressions were indifferent, and no one held back because none of them wished to give Lin Xun any chance of escaping.

Lin Xun's strength not only made Bai Longting feel deeply threatened but also frightened them, giving rise to a strong desire to eliminate him.

Lin Xun's expression remained calm from start to end. His cold black eyes seemed infinitely deep and not even the slightest hint of emotion could be seen on his face.

He was surrounded and appeared to be outmatched. Although he inevitably sustained some wounds, he had yet to suffer any major injuries!

While hearing their indifferent voices that seemed to have already sentenced him to death, Lin Xun couldn’t help but inwardly sneer.

He didn’t say anything, nor did he wish to!

He was waiting, waiting for all the formidable experts who were still hiding in the shadows to jump out.

When the time finally arrived, he would give everyone a special surprise. The only question was whether they would be able to properly receive it!
