The Prodigies War-Novel

He became third on the Blood Wanted List!

Shock erupted in the empire camp when they heard the news.

No one could have ever imagined that a young man in the Heaven Ascension Stage would be classified as the third most dangerous person in the Magi Brute Camp.

Never had a similar situation happened in the past thousands of years!

“Young Master Lin is too amazing!”

“The Magi Brute Race clearly is panicking to have put Young Master Lin’s name as third place on the Blood Wanted List.”

All kinds of exclamations rang out in the eight camps of the empire. Lin Xun's fierce military achievements greatly boosted the morale of the empire army and swept away the gloomy haze.

However, some people were worried for Lin Xun.

He was third on the Blood Wanted List!

It might seem like an alternative honor, but the ranking would no doubt bring Lin Xun terrifying danger and trouble.

How would the Magi Brute Army not do anything after Lin Xun had slaughtered so many of their people?

In truth, Lin Xun’s situation did become more dangerous in the following days.

……

Blood Kill Battlefield, Lone Swan Mountain.

Swoosh!

While fleeing, Lin Xun transformed into a Hornless Ice Dragon and raised his speed.

“Lin Twelve, without the bow and arrow, you are nothing special!”

Behind him was a mighty Lightning Tribe brute expert trying to catch up to him. He had a stocky figure and a pointed beard, and when his eyes opened and closed, terrifying lightning seemed to be flashing out from them.

It was She Nanming, a half-step king from the Lightning Tribe.

According to the intel, a team from the Lightning Tribe was stationed in Lone Swan Mountain, and the strongest member of the Lightning Tribe team was only at the Enlightened Spirit Stage.

However, when he arrived, he was surprised to see that the Lightning Tribe team had long retreated and the place had been deserted.

Only She Nanming, a half-step king, was standing there!

Clearly, he had come specifically to kill him.

“Hahaha, Lin Twelve, you are getting what you deserve! I can tell you that I am not the only one here. Five other half-step kings and a true Brute King have been dispatched. Their only goal is to hunt down and kill you little bastard!” She Nanming cackled, his voice thick with cold, murderous intent.

Lin Twelve was only at the Heaven Ascension Stage yet he had brought so much trouble to the Magi Brute Army these days. It would be the greatest humiliation to the Magi Brute Race if they failed to get rid of him.

“A Brute King?” Lin Xun narrowed his eyes. “They sent a Life Death Stage King and six half-step kings to deal with me?”

“Do they need to dispatch that many people?!”

“Death is here for you!” She Nanming thundered and launched a lightning spear across the air with a flick of his hand, aiming directly for Lin Xun.

The speed was incredible.

Lin Xun was being hunted down in the same way he was when he had been in the depths of the Mulberry Woodland.

But at the time, he was able to narrowly escape under the cover of the blood-colored fog that blocked off all sensing and detection. Additionally, he had the No-Nonsense Bow and the Biluo Arrow with him.

It was a different situation now. In the vast world, there was no shelter where he could hide. Even if he activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step to its peak, the spear still caught up to him.

Boom!

The lightning spear was imbued with terrifying powers. The dazzling sparks that circled it pulverized the surrounding space where it passed.

Lin Xun dodged in a flash, leaving the spear to blast a gigantic hole into the ground.

But the little obstruction allowed She Nanming to catch up to him. He grinned sinisterly. “Little guy, are you running away? I’m curious to know how capable you are without that bow and arrow!” While he was speaking, he launched his ultimate killing move. With a flick of his sleeve, lightning bolts were struck down from the sky, transforming into spears.

Any other cultivator likely wouldn’t be able to cope. Even great Cyclic Derivation cultivators would struggle to survive, let alone Heaven Ascension cultivators.

No matter how confident Lin Xun was in himself, he knew that it was impossible for him to defeat a half-step king without the help of the No-Nonsense Bow and Biluo Arrow.

Swoosh— Swoosh— Swoosh—

He repeatedly dodged the attack with a flash, but he seemed to be losing his composure. How would the head-on attacks of a half-step king be ordinary?

She Nanming remained as majestic as the vast ocean, with terrifying lightning power rushing out from his body. He was like the ruler of the world, displaying the might of a half-step king in full.

The pressure that Lin Xun was under multiplied!

If he only had to dodge, then the mysterious powers of the Hornless Ice Dragon Step would allow him to do that. But that wasn’t the case.

The divine powers of a half-step king was too amazing. He had grasped the secrets and mysteries of the great dao. This side of the world seemed to be a domain under his rule.

Even though Lin Xun was constantly dodging the incessant attacks, his entire body was under terrifying pressure. He was like a fish scrambling in ice; he could be frozen at any time!

The world shook turbulently, lightning poured down from above like a heavy rainstorm, and the air was saturated with a terrifying destructive atmosphere.

The rocks crumbled to dust, the earth cracked and the air became turbulent. Everything seemed to be in chaotic disarray.

She Nanming looked as mighty and powerful as a god of lightning, while Lin Xun had to do everything he could to avoid the rain of attacks. He was surrounded by danger.

Strictly speaking, this should be the first time that Lin Xun faced a half-step king head-on without the help of the No-Nonsense Bow and Biluo Arrow.

Even though he had experience in killing half-step kings many times in the past, it was only now that he deeply realized the gap between Heaven Ascension cultivators and half-step kings.

The gap was as huge as a heavenly chasm, which was impossible to make up for it with training alone. Even if Lin Xun had set foot on the Absolute Apex King Stage and was said to be invincible at the Heaven Ascension Stage, the gap between him and a half-step king was still too great.

Of course, this was just based on cultivation strength.

“Lin Twelve, you’re finally getting what you deserve!” She Nanming chuckled with great satisfaction. The young man who was ranked third on the Blood Wanted List and who had dealt many blows to the Magi Brute Camp was about to die at his hands.

He believed that he would become the most respected half-step king in the Magi Brute Camp if he was able to kill Lin Xun today!

Boom!

His attacks became increasingly violent and crazy. Lightning pelted down from the sky like waterfalls.

“Die!” She Nanming fiercely roared as he manipulated the rolling wave of lightning to envelop Lin Xun.

He could tell that Lin Xun was reaching his end!

Shua!

It was at that moment when a near-transparent blade split the waterfall of lightning in half with one fierce and swift slash.

The scene was too unbelievable. The lightning storm was easily torn apart like a cloth!

Caught off guard, She Nanming couldn’t stop his expression from changing.

Almost at the same time, a world-shattering roar resounded through the nine heavens like a dragon’s roar. As the sound waves spread, She Nanming felt his spirit sway like it was being struck by a giant hammer.

Then, his mighty and burly figure froze, staggered, and almost collapsed in mid-air.

Chi!

Before She Nanming could react, the bright, almost transparent blade was already speeding towards him. It was so fast that his hair stood on end. He felt a deadly threat.

It had to be said that She Nanming was indeed strong. As a half-step king, he had incredible reaction speed. In that critical juncture, he twisted around and narrowly evaded the fatal blow.

However, his neck was split with an inch-deep wound.

His throat had almost been slashed!

She Nanming broke out in a cold sweat. Then, he became livid with hatred. He had almost died when victory was just within his grasp!

He roared in fury, quaking the world, “Do you want to die?!”

But Lin Xun had already fled.

He sighed, disappointed that he failed to kill She Nanming. Although the Broken Blade had transformed into a spirit weapon, he failed to bring out its full power with his low cultivation base and only managed to barely wound a half-step king.

Moreover, that was a sneak attack.

Pulao Roar might be able to greatly affect Cyclic Derivation cultivators, but it had limited effect on half-steps kings.

Lin Xun had no choice but to flee.

Swoosh!

He raised his speed to the limit and darted like a Hornless Ice Dragon.

But She Nanming’s enraged roar still rang behind him, getting closer and closer. The furious half-step king was rapidly catching up to him.

“That guy will be guarded this time. Even if I manipulate the Broken Blade, I likely can’t wound him again. Unfortunately, the No-Nonsense Bow is not with me. Otherwise, how would I be in such a predicament? I can just kill the old beast with an arrow…”

While fleeing, he suddenly remembered that nearly eight days had passed since he lent the bow and arrow to the Bloodthirsty Queen Zhao Xingye.

However, he hadn’t heard a word from her in these eight days, which seemed a little unusual.

Could she be waiting for prey?

He suddenly shuddered and a strong feeling of imminent danger enveloped him. Instantly, his face blanched.

On the path ahead stood an incomparably majestic figure enveloped in golden brilliance, like a divine sun illuminating the entire world.

A Life Death Stage King!

A Brute King from the Gold Tribe!

She Nanming spoke the truth earlier. The Magi Brute Race has indeed dispatched a true king to deal with me!

All of a sudden, Lin Xun was in a crisis. A tiger was blocking the path ahead, and a wolf was catching up to him from behind!

“Little trash, why are you not running anymore?” She Nanming’s cold but furious cry resounded.

He also saw the mighty and dazzling figure standing tall like a king watching over all living beings.
