The Prodigies War

With an earthshaking roar, the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast soared into the sky, its body shimmering like gold and pouring out sacred dao light that illuminated the mountains and rivers.

Rumble!

Following the appearance of the majestic beast, golden thunderbolts struck down one after another and engulfed everything.

Immediately, several fleeing Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan experts were struck. They plunged from midair and convulsed on the ground before they became burnt corpses.

The beast was clearly enraged. Its divine powers flooded the sky and golden lights beamed from its body. There seemed to be lightning bolts raging within its eyes.

It’s much more terrifying than before!

Lin Xun trembled at the foot of the mountain. He could feel the stifling oppressive atmosphere. This was his second time encountering the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast.

Roar!

Its roar dissipated the clouds and shattered the surrounding space. As soon as it rose into the air, it transformed into a golden shadow and charged at Gou Gui.

Rumble!

It crushed mountains and valleys with its four hooves and spewed out golden lighting bolts from its mouth. It seemed to wield the god-like power of lightning.

Gou Gui grunted furiously. He had been propelled across the air and completely humiliated. How would he not be annoyed to see the fierce beast charge at him once again?

Clang!

He summoned a blood-colored scimitar that was entwined with dazzling dao light and sped forward to meet the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast head-on.

Instantly, the dome of heaven seemed to have exploded. The sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the terrifying power of the king stage swept across, tearing down the surrounding mountains.

It was a battle between kings. Naturally, the power was extremely frightening.

Fortunately, the unknown mountain was extremely special and as strong as a great dragon. Its otherworldly beauty and the auspicious qi lingering around it were never affected by the fierce battle.

It’s my chance now!

Lin Xun decided to act now. He had been hiding and waiting in the shadows not for the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan, but for the Gold Essence Jade Liquid!

Swoosh!

He enveloped his entire body with Suanni Qi and activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step with all his strength and rushed up the mountain and into the cave.

His heart pounded violently. It was a pond of Gold Essence Jade Liquid. He wouldn’t need to worry about his cultivation in the future if he was able to bring it away with him.

Soon, he arrived. Extremely concentrated life force came rushing towards his face. The pond was very mysterious, releasing dazzling rays of golden light like the sun had melted into it.

He quivered as the warmth of life bathed him. His entire body, qi, spirit and energy seemed to be cheering energetically. He felt as though he had been lifted by the colorful clouds into heaven.

“No wonder it is called one of the eight treasures of the world!” Lin Xun’s eyes blazed as he stared at the pond.

The pond brimmed with life. The golden liquid glistened and released rays of bright light just like it was the melted sun.

“It’s no wonder that the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast is so powerful since it can bathe in this extraordinary liquid every day...” Lin Xun marveled as he swiftly took out a bottle from the Nameless Pagoda and started to fill it.

The golden pond turned into a stream of golden liquid and poured into the bottle while Lin Xun was mesmerized by the waft of vitality in the air.

Boom!

Suddenly, a beam of golden light flashed out of the pond like a sharp sword, cutting through the air. If Lin Xun hadn’t dodged in time, it would have slashed him in the face.

Lin Xun broke out in a cold sweat. He never thought that murderous intent was concealed within the pond.

He looked up and was stunned for a moment. Why is there a little guy?

He noticed that there was a little Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast with a body that was only over a foot tall poking out of the water. It had a dragon head, an elk body, four sturdy hooves and shining golden eyes.

It stared at him fiercely, bared its teeth and growled, but its voice was like a child’s with no deterrent power at all.

Lin Xun breathed a sigh of relief. He finally understood why the Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast was so furious. It turned out that it was protecting its child.

“Little guy, go and play.”

Lin Xun picked up the little guy, dangled him upside down and dropped him into the depths of the pond with a huge splash.

After that, he continued to draw up the Gold Essence Jade Liquid into the bottle.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Beams of golden light shot out from the water one after another, aiming directly at Lin Xun.

The little Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast was infuriated, determined to prevent Lin Xun from stealing the precious golden liquid.

Lin Xun frowned in annoyance. Time was more precious than anything else for him!

He stormed forward, picked up the little guy into the air by its tail, and slapped it on the butt a few times. “If you won’t be good, I will make you into a stew!”

The little guy glowered at Lin Xun like it wanted to tear him into pieces.

Regardless, it didn’t dare to cause more trouble. It was either afraid of Lin Xun himself or it was afraid of being stewed by Lin Xun.

Lin Xun heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, the little Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast is just a hatchling and has no attacking power. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so easy to steal some of the Gold Essence Jade Liquid.

Unexpectedly, the little beast suddenly opened its mouth wide and slurped the Gold Essence Jade Liquid into its stomach like a bottomless pit.

Clearly, the little guy was getting revenge by preventing Lin Xun from taking the golden liquid.

Moreover, it wagged its small tail and cast a smug sideways glance at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun erupted with rage when he saw the Gold Essence Jade Liquid pour into the little guy’s mouth. He exasperated, This thing doesn’t give up!

He again grabbed the little guy by the tail and violently shook him upside down. “Spit it out, spit it out now!”

The little Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast felt the world spin around him. His screaming crying voice was cracking with anger.

He likely never thought that humans could be so shameless. Not only did he steal their Gold Essence Jade Liquid but the man was also forcing him to spit out the liquid in his stomach.

He was so ruthless!

Lin Xun didn’t agree. That was the Gold Essence Jade Liquid! One of the eight treasures of Heaven and Earth. He couldn’t tolerate the little guy wasting such treasure!

Huh?

An ear-piercing whistle in the distance sent a chill down Lin Xun’s spine.

His face turned overcast. Why did someone come to ruin everything at this moment?

In the end, he tossed the little Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast back into the pond and, with a flash, circulated the Suanni Qi and went into hiding.

Not long after that, a slender and tall figure appeared. He had a handsome face and radiated a heroic spirit, but he had menacing green eyes that shot out rays of cold light.

It turned out to be Gou Xuxing, a top figure of the younger generation of the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan who had the title of Thousand Killer!

“It’s that guy!” Lin Xun fumed, ready to give the guy a beating

“Gold Essence Jade Liquid!” Gou Xuxing quivered with surprised excitement as soon as he arrived. His dark green eyes were fixed on the golden liquid glimmering in the pond, spacing out in astonishment. “Lord Gui was right. There is not only murderous intent and dangers in this place, but also unbelievable treasures and opportunities!”

Without any wavering, he flicked his sleeve and brought out a green gourd to draw up the pond.

At the same time, the little horned beast surfaced again. When it saw that another person had come to steal its treasure, its face reddened with fury and it bared its teeth and unleashed a roar.

But that didn’t frighten Gou Xuxing in the slightest. On the contrary, his face was alighted with joy. “Heavens! A hatchling of a Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast! If I can tame it then I will own an unrivaled battle beast!” A glint of greed flashed in his eyes.

The little guy dived into the pool like it sensed the bad situation.

“Little guy, this is fate, you are destined to belong to me. How can you run away?” Gou Xuxing smiled smugly as he reached to grab the little beast.

In the dark, Lin Xun had furtively activated the Broken Blade, ready to strike.

He was truly annoyed. That guy had to come at this time and disrupt my plan. If the powerful Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast returns now, then there would be unimaginable consequences!

However, just when Lin Xun was about to make a move, his entire body froze and an ice-cold intent swept him like a hurricane.

This is bad!

He was so terrified that his heart pounded and his hair stood on end. There was no need to guess to know that the adult Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast had been alarmed!

Realizing the danger, Lin Xun turned around and fled without hesitation.

Swoosh!

He didn’t even attempt to conceal his aura but activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step to its full power with lightning speed and summoned the Grand Universe Ark to escape the cave.

Meanwhile, Gou Xuxing was startled. He was about to capture the little horned beast, but a figure suddenly appeared and then vanished without a trace.

He gasped.

Who was that guy? Could it be the mysterious figure who took away Xia Xiaochong?

If he attacked me just now, wouldn’t...

He stood rooted to the spot, face ashen and drenched in sweat, realizing how dangerous his situation was. He was only focused on snatching the opportunity and treasure and almost met with an accident.

Wait!

Why did he run?

By the time Gou Xuxing realized that something was wrong, a wave of ice-cold intent had swept towards him like a hurricane.

At this moment, his fingertips were still in a grabbing stance, and they were only a palm’s length away from the little horned beast.

Perhaps it was because of that a thunderous voice exploded from the wave of terrifying, cold intent.

“Do you want to die!” The voice chilled Gou Xuxing to the core and almost split his spirit.

It was filled with majesty.

If he hadn’t possessed a remarkable cultivation base, then that shred of spirit power alone would have obliterated his spirit and killed him on the spot!

His expression dramatically changed as he realized the severity of his situation. He almost cried out loud. How would he have thought that he would alert the king stage Single-Horned Golden-Eyed Beast?!
