The Prodigies War-Novel

The world in the bowl was very unusual, divided into nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine secret realms.

Each secret realm presented a different scene.

Wind, thunder, earth, fire, metal, wood, lake...different great dao visions filled every secret realm, evolving into mountains, rivers, plants, the sun, moon and stars.

Lin Xun looked around and saw that the world resembled the descending steps in front of the entrance to the Ten Thousand Tribulation Palace.

The nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine secret realms were stacked on top of one another in the world of the bowl, which made it very unique.

“The bowl is called the Ten Thousand Tribulation Transformed World, and the world in the bowl is called the Ten Thousand Tribulation Purgatory. It is divided into nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine floors.” The golden cicada youth explained, “This is the life emperor weapon of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Emperor and had accompanied him in every battle. Its power is unpredictable, but now it has becthe birthplace of a great opportunity.”

Very quickly, Lin Xun noticed many figures.

Wu Jiuzhong and the others from the Magi Brute Race, and Gou Tianxing and others from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races.

There were also the terrifying creatures that resided in Mulberry Woodland, including the Thousand Feather Sword Flower, Ancestor Blood Lotus, the blood-colored moth, the green flood dragon, and the bronze ant.

Zhao Yuanji and the others were also among them.

However, the epic battle that Lin Xun expected did not happen.

The Quasi-Emperor stage figures were almost all distributed across different secret realms, just like they were in different worlds.

Zhao Tailai, the empress, and the principal of Qinglu Academy were situated in the secret realms closest to the bottom and above them were the Magi Brute camp, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races, and the terrifying creatures.

And Zhao Yuanji was now leading the way, fighting in the upper levels of the secret realms.

“In the Ten Thousand Tribulation Purgatory, each secret realm is filled with tribulations, just like multiple purgatories. The way to grasp the great opportunity is very simple: overcall tribulations, break through the purgatory, and advance up the levels.” The golden cicada youth explained with a smile, “Actually, it’s almost the sas climbing the stone steps just now. It’s just that only Quasi-Emperor cultivators are qualified to face the tribulations in the Ten Thousand Tribulation Purgatory.”

Lin Xun nodded with understanding.

He saw Zhao Tailai panting in the 1300th secret realm and did not look too good

The tribulation he was facing was a rainstorm of azure light.

The azure light rainstorm was gorgeous and beautiful like azure comets dancing in the air.

But it was that magnificent rain of light that made Zhao Tailai constantly ducking for cover, dodging in a panic, and cursing out loud from tto time.

Then, Lin Xun noticed the Thousand Feather Sword Flower rapidly swaying and spewing out billion rays of misty sword qi. Instantly, the tremendous mountain in front of him was flattened.

Then, with a flash, he reached a higher secret realm.

Lin Xun gasped out loud at his fierce and invincible manner.

Before long, Lin Xun saw a Quasi-Emperor from the Magi Brute Race struck to the ground by a bolt of black lightning, hair disheveled and face pale. He let out a bitter scream.

Then, the Quasi-Emperor from the Magi Brute Race vanished the next second.

“If you fail to overca tribulation, you lose the qualification to compete for the great opportunity.” The golden cicada youth explained indifferently, “However, it does not signify death. Given the mind and the bold visions of the Ten Thousand Tribulation Great Emperor, he, of course, would not target the Quasi-Emperors with death.”

Lin Xun finally understood.

In the Ten Thousand Tribulation Purgatory, every Quasi-Emperor had the chance to compete for the great opportunity as long as they could pass the various purgatory-like secret realms.

And to pass the secret realms, one had to first overcthe tribulation in each of the secret realms.

If one was too weak and failed to overcthe tribulation, then they would be eliminated.

Those who were stronger could move up the levels.

Lin Xun noticed that Zhao Tailai, the empress, and the principal of Qinglu College were still advancing through the lower levels of the secret realm. This was because their injuries were affecting their performance.

From the looks of it, it seemed unlikely for them to compete for the great opportunity.

However, Lin Xun also knew that they cto help Zhao Yuanji, so even if they failed, they would not mind too much.

To Lin Xun's surprise, Zhao Yuanji was also badly wounded, but he was far ahead of the others and now in the 9900th secret realm level.

The expert behind him was Ancestor Blood Lotus, but he was still over three hundred secret realms away from him!

Following closely behind Ancestor Blood Lotus was the blood-colored moth.

However, in terms of speed of dealing with the tribulations, the blood-colored moth was evidently better than Ancestor Blood Lotus, and was gradually closing the gap between him and Ancestor Blood Lotus.

The golden cicada youth seemed to see the question floating in Lin Xun’s mind as he said aloud, “Zhao Yuanji was the first person to be selected, so he had an advantage and is far ahead of the others after entering the Ten Thousand Tribulation Purgatory.”

After a thought, the golden cicada youth added, “However, Zhao Yuanji is losing his advantage. None of his opponents are ordinary characters.”

“No wonder those old monsters wanted to kill him at all cost. His advantage is indeed too obvious,” Lin Xun gasped.

The golden cicada youth smiled. “Do you think that only the first person to pass through all the secret realms of the purgatory can win the great opportunity?”

Lin Xun looked surprised. “Could there be something else?”

The golden cicada young man’s eyes were crystal clear as he said gently, “Becoming an Emperor is not something that can be achieved by just using strength and force. It requires a true ‘invincible’ will. Furthermore, you also need a heart that is never afraid of the tribulations, never dwells about the past or worry about the future, is never confined by the great dao and never has any regrets about your true self.

“If you think you can seize the opportunity just by having strength, then you are underestimating the hardships of becoming an Emperor.”

Lin Xun smiled wryly, “I am still far from reaching the Emperor Stage, so it is indeed difficult forto understand.”

He had yet to even reach the Saint Stage, so it was impossible for him to understand the hardships of becoming an Emperor.

“It doesn’t matter. You will surely understand in the future.”

From beginning to end, the golden cicada youth never once mocked or looked down on Lin Xun, nor did he ever show a tinge of a superior or domineering attitude.

He seemed very peaceful, like a friend with a gentle temperament having a ‘chat’ with Lin Xun.

But Lin Xun knew that this so-called ‘chat’ was actually a kind of guidance.

Along the way, everything that the golden cicada youth explained to Lin Xun felt like a door being pushed open, allowing him to see a higher, farther, and greater world!

At that moment, Lin Xun truly felt that the saying, ‘listening to the words of a wise person is better than ten years of studying,’ was true.

“Huh?” The golden cicada youth gasped and shook his head with a bitter smile. “A’Bai is really determined and won’t give up.”

Lin Xun followed his gaze and saw a girl in white facing a tribulation in the 8990th secret realm.

Her silky hair was jet-black, her facial features were as delicate and beautiful as a young woman’s, and her body radiated a mysteriously attractive aura, but when she sprung into action, she was incomparably fierce and tyrannical.

The tribulations, to her, were simply not worth mentioning. She eliminated them one by one and advanced the levels like a whirlwind. Dressed in white, she resembled an unrivaled battle goddess.

Within minutes, she had already passed through dozens of secret realms and set foot into the nine thousandth level!

This amazed Lin Xun, and he couldn’t help but compare the speed of Zhao Yuanji, Ancestor Blood Lotus, the blood colored moth, and the girl in white.

He concluded in seconds that, if this continued, the girl in white would not only overtake the blood-colored moth and Ancestor Blood Lotus, but also even Zhao Yuanji!

“She’s too strong…” Lin Xun smacked his lips.

The golden cicada youth shook his head. “That’s because she has a huge advantage with her foundation and talent. Oh, by the way, she’s A’Bai, but if you see her, don’t call her that. She will go crazy.”

The name...did not seem very appropriate for a Quasi-Emperor; it was more like a nicknfor a cat or a dog...

“Well, she’s called White Emperor. She has set her mind to becan Emperor a long tago. The reason why she chere withback then and willingly lay dormant here for so many years without complaining was to becan Emperor.” The golden cicada youth sighed, “I really wanted to help her, but unfortunately...even if the great opportunity is offered to her, she will not get her wish.”

“Why is that?” Lin Xun asked in puzzlement.

The golden cicada youth did not explain further and just said, “Her opportunity to becan emperor is not here.”

Lin Xun nodded and then he suddenly asked aloud, “She...is the white cicada, right?”

The golden cicada youth smiled. “Why? Do you still remember the murderous look she gave you when you first met?”

Lin Xun answered frankly, “Who could forget it?”

He still remembered that back then, when he wanted to get close to the ice saint tree, he sensed a terrifying murderous intent coming from a white cicada.

Fortunately, with the help of the blood-colored moth, Lin Xun narrowly averted the danger.

The golden cicada young man explained, “Actually, even if Fei Lan did not do anything, she wouldn't have killed you. She was just repulsed by your identity.”

Lin Xun frowned in bewilderment. “What identity?”

“Successor of Fangcun Mountain.”

Lin Xun’s heart jolted. Only then did he realize that the golden cicada youth had already known many things about him when they first met.

Lin Xun couldn’t help asking, “Is there enmity between Miss White Emperor and Fangcun Mountain?”

The golden cicada youth chuckled out loud, “She just suffered a loss at the hands of a successor of Fangcun Mountain, and she has been holding a grudge since then.”

“Who?” Lin Xun was more curious.

In his view, the white cicada was already terrifying enough, and she had demonstrated strength fiercer than that of both the blood colored moth and Ancestor Blood Lotus.

But there was actually a successor of Fangcun Mountain who made her suffer a loss. Unbelievable…

“That man, like you, also practiced the Sacred Combat Art.”

Lin Xun instantly thought of the imposing and majestic figure with mighty earthshaking powers and a dignified and heroic aura around him.

When he received the Sacred Combat Art inheritance at the summit of Fangcun Mountain, he saw a strange vision.

A heroic figure was kneeling alone before the dilapidated entrance of Fangcun Mountain, as still and silent as a rock.

Then, the figure soared into the sky, meeting the enemy who suddenly ccharging at him with murderous intent, and a battle instantly erupted in the nine heavens. He was like a god of battle, his majestic figure enveloping the universe and illuminating all ages!

Could it be him?
