The Prodigies War-Novel

It was a heart full of cracks. While it was only the size of a palm, dried up, and black in color, but the horrifying aura it gave off caused all the terrifying creatures in the vicinity to retreat!

“Return home…” emitted the broken heart in a low voice once again.

“Master, I suspect that this is the heart of an Emperor!” transmitted a stiffened Little Silver with a grave expression.

Lin Xun gasped. It was astonishing to see a broken heart that looked like it had gone through countless years of destruction to still possess such a terrifying aura, and one would indeed think of an Emperor expert.

Lin Xun gathered his courage and responded, “But my injuries haven’t healed yet.”

“Return home…” The broken heart seemed to only remember these two words as it repeated them over and over again.

Lin Xun glanced at the other horrific creatures around and found that seven in total had gathered over the last three days, including the skeletal fox and the skeletal giant, as well as a skeletal celestial phoenix, a skeletal soft-shelled turtle, a huge withered tree, a skeletal snake…

And this broken heart, whose aura was also the most terrifying!

Lin Xun checked himself and saw that half of his injuries had healed. It would take him at least seven more days to completely heal.

This already included the help of the Immortality Grand Dao and the divine herbs. Otherwise, his recovery would have been much slower.

But at this moment, Lin Xun didn’t know whether he should continue to recuperate or not, for the broken heart had locked onto him with its terrifying power while repeating ‘return home’ in a low, choppy voice.

“But I don’t know where your his,” said Lin Xun.

The response he received remained the same: ‘Return home.’

Lin Xun couldn’t help but frown. From what he could sense, the seven horrific creatures around them were extremely powerful, but seemed to have no conscious awareness. The only thing driving their action was their instincts.

Just like the living dead.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Xun stood up and grasped the Blameless Lamp.

At that instant, the seven horrific creatures, either prostrate or crouching nearby, all rose up in unison. From their manner, it looked like they planned on following him.

Or to be more exact, they wanted to follow the Blameless Lamp.

Seeing this, Lin Xun thought of an idea. He walked forward, and sure enough, he saw these creatures also moving along with him.

It was as if the Blameless Lamp in his hand was a glimpse of hope that could guide them on the right path.

“Huh?!”

What Lin Xun found even more surprising was that the restrictive power permeating the great abyss was unable to suppress the Blameless Lamp!

Figuratively speaking, the restrictive force was the omnipresent darkness while the Blameless Lamp was a torch that could burn a hole in it and bring in light!

Lin Xun was shaken when he realized how simple it was to get out of this place!

He tried flying up. As the dim light of the Blameless Lamp stretched and spilled down, he confirmed that he could fly freely just like in the outside world.

The air rumbled below Lin Xun as the horrific creatures all leaped after him. From their movements, one could guess that they were extremely excited.

Standing on Lin Xun’s shoulder, Little Silver said worriedly, “Master, what do we do if they no longer fear the Blameless Lamp after we leave this abyss?”

Lin Xun gritted his teeth. “It’s fine, if something really happens, I have a means to deal with it.”

Little Silver was concerned. “But you haven’t completely healed.”

Lin Xun suddenly said with an odd look, “Little Silver, do you think anyone would dare to harm us if these horrifying fellows follow us around?”

Little Silver was stunned. Then, the expression on his little face also becodd as he raised a thumb, “The fox exploits the tiger’s might, right? It’s a brilliant tactic, Master.”

Lin Xun glared at him. “What fox, what tiger? That’s not how you flatter someone.”

Little Silver grinned.

“Let’s go.” Lin Xun didn’t hesitate to increase his speed as he shot upward.

The Blameless Lamp in his hand sprinkled its mottled glow. Like a light breaking through the darkness, it threw the restrictive force around them into disarray.

Below him, a group of horrific creatures followed closely.

Before long, Lin Xun’s figure flashed as he leaped onto the bone ropeway that stretched across the void.

He glanced back and saw that the horrific creatures still remained closely behind like a group of obedient followers without showing any killing intent. Only then did he let out a sigh of relief.

At this moment, a series of familiar mournful screeches rang out from the gray mist overhead.

Lin Xun knew that those Spiteful Blood Bats were coming again!

He had just readied himself to fight when he saw that behind him, the horrific creatures raised their heads in unison and fixed their blood-red eyes on the void.

And then, the swarm of Spiteful Blood Bats that had just emerged from the mist all exploded to pieces without any chance to react.

The mournful screeches in the mist also cto an abrupt end, as if the things in it had suffered a great fright. Not a single bat rushed out again.

Only then did those horrific creatures withdraw their gazes and look at the Blameless Lamp in Lin Xun’s hand, their auras calm again.

Seeing all this, Lin Xun was inwardly appalled. His heart thumped violently, and his mouth becdry.

“So this is how the fox feels when it borrows the tiger’s might… So satisfying…” Little Silver sighed in a daze. He felt as if he was being protected by a group of incredibly powerful bodyguards!

“Little Silver, that’s not a nice way to describe it!” Lin Xun glanced at the little guy, “It should be called ‘making use of the predicament to resolve itself.’”

Right at this moment, a shocked voice rang out from the distant crack in the cliff wall, “Little scum, you’re still alive?!”

Lin Xun looked over and saw the Dark Blood Magi Saint standing on the path of the crack. An Lingzhen and Guang Fuqing were beside him.

After three days of going all out to heal himself, the Dark Blood Magi Saint had remodeled a new body. Although his wound was still very serious, he had been able to recover a certain amount of power.

Upon seeing Lin Xun, the ant that had almost killed him, his withered old face instantly darkened and looked very unsightly.

“Let’s see how you can escape this time!” roared the Dark Blood Magi Saint furiously

Lin Xun smiled faintly. Instead of retreating, he took a step forward.

And then, the Dark Blood Magi Saint’s roar cto an abrupt end. His face suddenly distorted like he was seeing a ghost.

Lin Xun stepped forward and on the bone ropeway behind him first appeared a broken heart, then a skeletal bird that resembled a celestial phoenix, and then, one after another, a skeletal giant carrying a broken sword, a charred tree, a skeletal fox…

With the appearance of every horrific creature, the Dark Blood Magi Saint’s face twisted, and his momentum crumbled a little. When the mountainous soft-shelled turtle slowly stepped out, his expression had completely frozen, and his eyeballs had almost fallen out.

He constantly gasped, feeling as if he was in skind of chaotic dream.

“This…this…”

The Dark Blood Magi Saint was truly terrified. His soul struggled to remain in his body as the aura radiating from each horrific creature was so powerful that it shook him to the core.

When they appeared as a group, the combined aura caused the Dark Blood Magi Saint’s legs to go soft and his mouth to quiver.

Meanwhile, An Lingzhen and Guang Fuqing had frozen on the spot, gawking in shock as their minds had been completely rattled.

Lin Xun was greatly reassured. Without hesitation, he rushed toward the Dark Blood Magi Saint. “Old scum, whoever flees is a coward!”

The group of horrific creatures was hot on his heels, seemingly scared to stray too far from the Blameless Lamp in his hand.

Seeing this, the Dark Blood Magi Saint directly collapsed. With a scream, he dragged the twins and ran like a frightened dog.

Lin Xun chased after the three with all his might, but without the help of God Burning Wings, it was impossible to catch up to a True Saint who was capable of teleportation.

In the end, he lost them.

The group of horrific creatures just followed him all the way without any intention to help.

This made Lin Xun feel a little helpless, but he had cto terms with it. After all, these were just a bunch of dead creatures without consciousness who were being guided by the Blameless Lamp, so how could they possibly follow commands?

Even so, he was already satisfied that they didn’t spin out of control after leaving the great abyss.

As for the Dark Blood Magi Saint’s escape, Lin Xun could only accept it, although unwilling.

“This is Mulberry Woodland. With such a serious injury, the old bastard is bound to encounter sperilous situations,” pondered Lin Xun.

Eventually, he shook his head and decided not to think about it. Taking out the golden jade slip with a flip of his right hand, he continued on his way.

His left hand was firmly holding the Blameless Lamp.

Passing through the narrow cliff path, it wasn’t long before a foggy world opened up in front of him.

With a group of horrific creatures following him, Lin Xun was no longer afraid of anything. He just strode confidently and followed the guidance of the jade slip.

Amidst the mist-covered mountains and rivers, a strange scene was playing out.

Lin Xun steadily moved forth while behind him, one uncanny creature after another followed like his loyal bodyguards. It was a grand sight to behold.

Later, Lin Xun let Little Silver hold the Blameless Lamp while he operated the Immortality Grand Dao to heal his injuries.

Their pace wasn’t too fast, but it was already much better than what it was initially.

This was simply because Lin Xun was now truly fearless of dangers that could cout of the blue. In fact, he wished to cacross one so that he could test the strength of horrific creatures behind him.

He did encounter sscary things along the way. From tto time, powerful creatures including but not limited to beasts, birds, and spirits suddenly jumped out from the mist, each exuding a more terrifying aura than the last.

However, these monsters had been able to sense danger before even getting close and escaped like crazy.

There were even beings, who seemed to be at the Saint stage, that peered at Lin Xun from a far distance. However, upon a glance at the group of horrific creatures behind him, those gazes cleanly vanished…

It was just like in the legend: When an Emperor traveled, everyone else avoided them!
