The Prodigies War

The hostility in the area rapidly climbed as everyone’s gazes turned unfriendly and murderous.

A triumphant smile formed on Gu Tianyi's face as he transmitted to Chi Yao, "See, Lin Xun is destined to die!"

He was very pleased with how a single sentence from him had changed the entire situation.

"What you’ve done will greatly offend Lin Xun."

Chi Yao frowned, feeling somewhat angered. She was the one who had told Gu Tianyi about A’lu's relationship with Lin Xun. Once he got to the bottom of the matter, she would inevitably also be implicated.

Deep down, she very much didn't wish to make an enemy out of someone like Lin Xun.

She had already learned how terrifying Lin Xun was as early as in the Burning Immortal World and understood that someone like him would never foolishly walk to his death.

Gu Tianyi smiled disbelievingly. ''I merely offended a dead man. What's there to be concerned about?"

Chi Yao didn’t say anything else. She had already decided to draw a clear line with Gu Tianyi.

Bai Longting asked, "Lin Xun, is that true?"

His voice echoed across the area like the morning bell or evening drum as everyone looked at Lin Xun.

The atmosphere suddenly turned hostile and tense.

It was akin to a pack of wolves that were already eyeing their prey suddenly finding that another wolf had appeared and was intending to save the prey, incurring the wrath of the pack!

Lin Xun ignored everything and instead raised his head to look at the figure undergoing the heavenly tribulation in the sky. With a deep breath, he said, "A’lu, relax and focus on your tribulation. No one will be able to touch you with me around!"

His calm voice was filled with unwavering determination.

He stood alone amidst the crowd of powerful experts while ignoring all of them, giving off the sensation of a man resolved to block ten thousand enemies alone!

Everyone’s expression darkened as they revealed their killing intent. This was enough to tell them that Lin Xun was indeed here to save the barbarian!

The crowd felt incredulous. Did Demon God Lin actually believe that he could singlehandedly change the situation?

It must be noted that there were more than a thousand powerful experts present, not to mention several famous powerhouses of the Upper Nine Realms!

Yet he still intended to save the barbarian alone?

It was so ridiculous that it felt like a joke!

"Big brother! I..."

Amidst the heavenly tribulation, A’lu's eyes had turned red and teary. Despite the terrible condition of his battered body, a hot, indescribable emotion surged through him at this moment.

He had already been prepared for death and would rather be destroyed by the heavenly tribulation than allow others to steal his blessing!

Lin Xun’s appearance was an unpredictable surprise to him!

"Don’t say anymore and concentrate on the tribulation! At worst, we’ll all die today, although I do want to see first if anyone will be able to stop us brothers!"

Lin Xun's black hair fluttered wildly as he looked around with eerily gleaming eyes. A terrifying pressure spread from him, causing the weather to change.

Several people’s breaths were caught in their throats as their expressions changed slightly.

Over the past two years, many unrivaled overlord-like individuals had rapidly risen in the Upper Nine Realms such as Shaohao, Fairy Ruowu, and Yuan Fatian.

However, who could ever forget Demon God Lin?

Although there was almost no news of him for two years, his eventual appearance was certain to cause a storm!

Now, Lin Xun sought to face an enormous group of strong enemies alone. While it seemed absurd, would anyone present dare to guarantee that they wouldn’t be taken down by him as well even if they ultimately managed to kill him?

"It’s only been two years, but he's already reached the sixth longevity tribulation stage!"

Someone’s heart trembled as he felt the dreadfulness of Lin Xun's presence.

Two years ago, Lin Xun, who had been at the third longevity stage, had crushed Underworld Son, who was at the fourth longevity stage and forced him to flee. It was difficult to imagine how much more terrifying Lin Xun’s combat power would be now.

"Lin Xun, you can't be naive enough to believe that you can stop us alone, right?"

Bai Longting's face was now tinged with iciness. He was a proud individual with strong foundations. He didn’t fear Lin Xun, but he would not underestimate the latter either.

"Go ahead and try me."

Lin Xun glanced at him with a cold expression. He didn’t know Bai Longting’s background, but wouldn’t care even if he did.

After all, he was going to save A’lu today no matter what!

Anyone who tried to stop him will be killed!

Underworld Son frostily said, "Hmph! I never thought that you would be someone to value relations so deeply and would even dare to gamble away your life for someone whose death is already set in stone. Unfortunately, all the colleagues present will not agree to this!"

His hazy armor-clad figure exuded a monstrous murderous intent.

"How dare a loser speak out so boldly? Do you dare to come here and fight me?!"

Killing intent shot from Lin Xun’s eyes as his voice boomed like thunder, shaking the spirits of several experts until they nearly saw stars.

Underworld Son's expression immediately turned ugly. He regarded his loss to Lin Xun as the greatest shame in his life. Hence, having it brought up in such a public setting made him nearly go crazy with hatred.

A youth said in a low voice, "Lord Underworld Son, don't fall for his provocations. He’s clearly stalling for time. We only need to strike together later to crush him!"

"Die!"

In the distance, Lin Xun lifted his hand and pointed at the youth from afar.

Omni-Finger!

"AHH!"

A stream of finger-force appeared out of nowhere and drilled a bloody hole through the youth’s throat.

Next, his body and primordial spirit swiftly disintegrated, erasing him from existence.

An expert was instantly killed with a single finger!

The crowd’s expressions simultaneously changed upon witnessing the scene.

Even the eyelids of Bai Longting, Underworld Son, and Chi Yao involuntarily twitched. Their expressions turned a little graver as they thought about how they would neutralize this move.

"If you’re unafraid of death, feel free to come over and see if I can take you on!"

Lin Xun's voice was ice-cold as his aura grew increasingly oppressive. He felt like a giant abyss that sought to devour the eight barrens and even swallow humans whole.

Many people stirred restlessly as they looked at each other.

"That’s the power of his reputation. Even two years of silence cannot erase the impression he has left in people’s hearts."

Chi Yao inwardly sighed.

He was but a single individual surrounded by enemies on all sides. It was genuinely astonishing that he was still able to remain calm and display an aura of unstoppable inevitability.

This was the power of Demon God Lin’s reputation!

From the Burning Immortal World to the Upper Nine Realms, could anyone keep track of how many famous supreme heaven prides had fallen to Demon God Lin?

"What shameless boasting!"

Finally, someone in the shadows could no longer hold back. He summoned a divine sword and slashed at Lin Xun.

The sword’s aura pierced through heaven and earth, illuminating everything with its radiance!

It was no probing attack but a serious and committed blow that overflowed with domineering viciousness.

Shiing!

Almost simultaneously, the Broken Blade flew out like a blur of illusory light to stop the sword.

Clang!

An ear-piercing collision echoed in the air as the sword was brutally knocked back and sent flying.

Meanwhile, its owner staggered due to the backlash.

It was a hemp-clothed youth from the White Dragon-Deer lineage. He was an extremely terrifying ancient-era genius who was ranked in the top thirty in the Genius Gold Rankings.

Despite this, he had clearly lost the upper hand after a single exchange. Several people were astonished and horrified once again. One must know that many of the veteran experts on the Genius Gold Rankings have been replaced by new blood over the past two years.

This hemp-clothed youth was one of these new rising stars. Yet, he had been defeated in a single exchange... How could anyone not be shocked by this?

"Demon God Lin has become even more terrifying over the past two years!"

Numerous people inwardly shivered.

"Everyone, we can't let him continue any longer. Let’s attack together!" yelled an expert as he turned into a streak of light and rushed at Lin Xun.

It was a thin man covered in brilliant silver light. A crystal horn surrounded by mysterious flowing symbols grew from his head.

He was undoubtedly a formidable expert.

Lin Xun transmitted, "Toady, Blacky, you guys secretly protect A’lu while I kill the enemies!"

He then rushed forward as if he was on fire, transforming into a furnace of chaos and mayhem.

He immediately went on the offensive and threw a punch.

Boom!

The sky and land collapsed and even space distorted.

It was an unimaginably powerful punch that felt like a god throwing a mountain at the sky, manifesting grand dao power that blazed to the extremes.

Chla!

When Lin Xun and the one-horned man’s figures exchanged places, fist-force shattered the man’s treasure along with his entire arm. The horrifying fist-force continued to spread, wrecking half of the man’s body into a bloody pulp.

Too fast!

The domineering punch had seriously injured a sixth longevity tribulation expert and nearly crippled him.

"Attack!"

More figures charged out from different directions and attacked Lin Xun together.

Omm~

A giant abyss emerged around Lin Xun and began to revolve, emitting an endlessly terrifying devouring power.

The abyss devoured all the attacks before they could approach Lin Xun!

"This..."

Someone cried out in surprise. It was as if no technique or attack could even touch Lin Xun at this moment.

Plop!

A blast of fist-force erupted and blew apart the head of the expert who had cried out, causing his headless corpse to crash to the ground.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun unleashed his devastating arsenal of the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations, the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art, and the Great Diffusion Void Breaker Finger.

Plop! Plop! Plop!

The attacking experts were slaughtered one after another with overwhelming power as if they were made of paper, causing stream after stream of blood to spurt into the air before raining back onto the ground.

Even the world seemed to tremble at the unrivaled demon god-like power that Lin Xun was displaying.

Too strong!

He seemed unbeatable as he rampaged across the area while bathing in the blood of his enemies.

Someone roared, "Quick! Attack him together!"

Anyone could see that Lin Xun was setting an example. He intended to intimidate the rest through his brutality and crush their fighting spirits. Hence, it was necessary to stop him as soon as possible.

"I’m honestly unwilling to make an enemy of you. Unfortunately, you’re blocking my path to the blessing so you must die!"

A soft sigh rang out across heaven and earth. Bai Longting had finally decided to move.

His eyes seemed charged with electricity while his posture was as straight as a spear. As he stepped forward, a monstrous killing intent spread and surged across the area, causing space to distort and wail incessantly as if heralding the arrival of a king.
