The Prodigies War-Novel

Chapter 964 Chaos Star Beach

“Okay,” Lin Xun agreed without hesitation.

His answer took Shun Baixuan aback because he never imagined that Lin Xun would agree so readily. He raised his brows and said skeptically, “Since it’s just a spar then we are just comparing martial arts, so supreme weapons such as Saint treasures are not allowed.”

“Okay.” Lin Xun nodded again. 

Only then did Shun Baixuan relax and his eyes flashed like lightning. His entire body exuded a brilliant golden glow and his fighting spirit soared. “Then you have to be careful. Remember that although I won’t kill you, I won’t go easy on you!”

“So just like when you faced off against Xia Zhi?” Lin Xun said indifferently. 

The corners of Shun Baixuan’s lips twitched violently. His humiliation was being exposed in public!

“Of course!” he shouted before he stepped forward and soared into the sky, hair dancing around his face like he was the god of war. “Come fight then!” 

Lin Xun smiled brightly. “As you wish!”

Shua!

His robe fluttered as azure light flowed all over his body. Then, like a shaft of light, he rushed into the sky, aiming a palm strike in the direction of Shun Baixuan.

Rumble!

A great battle instantly broke out. 

In the void, the wind raged, thunder rioted, and divine light beamed in all directions. 

Rumble!

Lin Xun stepped forward and activated the Combustion Star River Art. Instantly, a sea of flames spread and raged across the nine heavens, incinerating any stars in its way like suns exploding. A terrifying aura of destruction flooded the world. 

Showy.

Willful. 

Tyrannical.

He was like the god of fire!

Everyone in the audience was amazed, especially Miss Le and Luo Jia, who sharply noticed that Lin Xun’s strength had grown significantly compared to before. 

But Shun Baixuan was not bad either. The little devil king from a family of saints might be arrogant and conceited, but he did possess the strength and ability that justified his arrogance. 

Golden lights flared around him as he activated an ancient fist art. He wielded his fist upwards and the power of the punch blasted through the air like a fierce dragon. 

“Good!”

Lin Xun laughed and met the attack head-on, looking satisfied and content.

He had been troubled that he could not find an opponent to hone his newly transformed grand dao power, but Shun Baixuan coincidentally came to find him. 

He was also aware that after his fire dao power advanced to the next level, the power of the Combustion Star River also soared to an earthshaking level!

With one strike, a sea of flames submerged the sky, burning the galaxy. The terrifying destructive power it contained was enough to incinerate an entire world!

“Hmph!” Shun Baixuan snorted coldly. Although Lin Xun’s strength surprised him a little, he did not panic and activated an ancestral dao art. 

Moreover, he was more domineering than Lin Xun. He had never dodged an attack since the battle began. Every one of his punches was so fierce that it smashed the surrounding space and caused the air to flow turbulently!

But soon, he was shaking with rage, because Lin Xun scolded him with a dissatisfied voice during the fierce battle, “Put more strength into it!”

Those were Lin Xun’s exact words. Not only that, he said them with furrowed brows. 

“Kid, you are arrogant!” Shun Baixuan, who claimed to be the devil king in the world, erupted in response to the provocation.  

As he roared furiously, his whole body exploded with golden light, and he swung his halberd without hesitation, making wild slashes in all directions. He looked as fierce as an overlord of the ancient times.

“This is more interesting now.” Lin Xun was more delighted than surprised. 

“You want a beating!” Shun Baixuan gritted his teeth, swung the halberd, and poured out a thousand rays of golden lights, causing the void to collapse with a rumble.

He didn’t hold back at all. Not only did he want him to suffer the shame that Xia Zhi brought to him, but he also wanted to make him have a taste of the feeling of pain, despair and frustration!

But Lin Xun frowned again in dissatisfaction. “Is this all the mighty Devil King of the Shun Clan has?”

“You!” Shun Baixuan thundered and almost crushed his teeth in anger. He decided to bring out his trump card.

Rumble!

From his golden halberd, waves of golden dao runes rippled out, causing the surrounding void to crumble and collapse like it was on the verge of being destroyed. 

It was an ancestral lost art of the Shun Clan—the True Golden Ripple Vortex! It could pierce the sky and kill ghosts and gods with its domineering and fierce power.

Lin Xun‘s aura suddenly changed in response, becoming as quiet and still as an abyss, and his body produced waves of terrifying energy like he was about to swallow the sky and earth. 

He was using the Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer that had reached the Dao Ripple Level!

Moreover, he had combined its power with the power of the Nine Heavenshaking Destructions Art and the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations, as a result, his combat power also changed.

With one punch, the surrounding space seemed to be swallowed up and all of Shun Baixuan’s attacks were obliterated without a trace!

So bizarre!

Everyone could tell that Shun Baixuan’s True Golden Ripple Vortex was astonishingly powerful, like a golden dragon soaring into the sky, capable of wiping out the world.

But before he neared Lin Xun, the force of Lin Xun’s punch swallowed it up and it vanished without a trace!

Then, Lin Xun’s fist power erupted like an abyss of hell opening its giant mouth. With a boom, Shun Baixuan was drowned in fist power.

Bang!

However, Shun Baixuan’s reputation wasn’t built up from nothing. His halberd erupted in blazing light that blasted away the power that suppressed him, allowing him to narrowly escape the danger. 

However, he looked a little discomposed with his torn clothes. 

What power was that?

Shun Baixuan’s countenance changed subtly as he realized how powerful it was.

At the same time, Miss Le and Luo Jia were shaking inwardly, realizing the terror of Lin Xun’s grand dao power. 

“The dao is like an abyss, unfathomably deep, and it is like a star vortex or black hole, able to obliterate everything. What kind of grand dao was that?” Luo Jia asked, her beautiful clear eyes filled with amazement.  

“Why does it feel familiar? I seem to have heard of it somewhere...” Miss Le murmured, wrinkling her perfectly beautiful brows. 

After a long moment, she cried out, “I remembered! It’s Yun Qingbai, the number one swordsman in the Ancient Wasteland Domain!” Her voice trembled with disbelief. 

“Yun Qingbai!” Miss Le’s expression tensed up. 

“Yun Qingbai’s sword skills are as unfathomable as an abyss. They contain immeasurable power that could slaughter ghosts and gods and swallow up the universe!”

Miss Le said, “Rumor has it that he has grasped a mysterious and rare grand dao power. This power is ranked in the top ten of the Reaching Heaven Dao Ranking!”

“Do you mean that Lin Xun has also mastered this grand dao power?” Luo Jia suddenly remembered. Isn’t this the grand dao power that Lin Xun comprehended in the Stele Forest on Cangwu Mountain?

At that time, everyone regarded it as an extremely ordinary Vortex Grand Dao, which drew a lot of mocking and ridicule.

But now, it seemed that was not the case!

“No, I just find them a little similar. I can’t be sure whether they are the same.” Miss Le shook her head. Even if she said that, her expression was still extremely complex with a mixture of shock, disbelief and amazement. 

……

During the fierce battle in the void, Shun Baixuan was completely suppressed to the point of not being able to raise his head. 

His face twisted with shock and anger. He also had set foot onto the Supreme Path, and he possessed all sorts of unmatched secrets and talents. He believed that among the younger generation in this world, only a handful of the heaven-defying geniuses in the Hidden Holy Land could match up to him. 

He feared no one else!

But who would have thought that he would be crushed by Xia Zhi a few days ago, and now, Lin Xun seemed to be dominating in the battle against him?

How could he not be shocked?

Opposite him, Lin Xun expressed his dissatisfaction, “Is this all you’ve got? Hurry and bring out all your trump cards.” 

Shun Baixuan almost spat out blood in fury. He had already unleashed many secret arts and trump cards up to this point in the battle, but Lin Xun managed to deflect them all time and time again. What other killing moves did he have?!

He could activate the Saint Treasure, but if he did that, it would be a slap to his own face. He couldn’t humiliate himself like that. 

Boom!

In the end, Shun Baixuan was utterly defeated by Lin Xun. 

Even if blood was trickling down his nostrils and the corners of his mouth, he still refused to yield. He still gritted his teeth and faced Lin Xun, unwilling to admit defeat. 

But after being suppressed again and again, there was no hope of turning the battle around. Lin Xun directly suppressed him in the air and slammed him onto the deck of the ship with a clang. 

Lin Xun hovered in the air with a dissatisfied look on his face and was about to continue, but Luo Jia stopped him. 

“Stop, the outcome of the battle has already been decided. If it continues, it could lead to death.” Luo Jia felt her head throb. 

“I refuse to accept it!” Shun Baixuan roared, his face livid. 

However, he didn’t do anything else and was purely venting his anger and indignation. 

“Ambitious! To know shame is akin to courage. I hope that you will come to challenge me again when you get stronger. I promise to fight you to the end.” Lin Xun walked towards him with a smile on his face.

“Young Master, I didn’t think you were so powerful. We misunderstood you before, so I want to apologize to you here. I hope you forgive us for our mistakes.” Kou Xing and the others also came over and apologized with embarrassed smiles. 

After witnessing the battle, they realized that the guy they had regarded as a fool was actually a powerful expert!

But when Shun Baixuan heard their apology, he quivered with anger. Annoying! So annoying! I have already lost like this, what’s the point in apologizing to me?!

In the end, with a face red with shame, he left with Luo Jia. But before leaving, he resolutely announced that he would come to challenge Lin Xun again to wash away the shame!

Lin Xun strongly welcomed him to do so and then kindly told him to work hard and that he could not slack off when he went back.

Shun Baixuan wanted to say thank you, but when he learned that those words came from Lin Xun, he couldn’t help but scrunch up his nose. 

Is he making fun of me?

A friendly and caring attitude towards the loser is just malicious ridicule!

Luo Jia and Shun Baixuan left together while Lin Xun and the others continued onwards, heading into the depths of the Boundary River. 

Along the way, although they encountered dangers, there was no risk to their lives. 

Time flew, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye. 

In those seven days, apart from practicing, Lin Xun tried to comprehend and figure out the mysteries of the first volume of the Great Treasury Silence Scripture. He wasted no time. 

The only thing that puzzled him was that, after so many days, Little Silver, whom he had imprisoned in his mind-sea, showed no sign of giving in or admitting wrong. It was extremely stubborn.

Little Silver was the spirit-eating insect that had transformed into a larval insect king.

Ever since it had been deceived by Lin Xun, it had felt that its self-esteem had been insulted and it no longer wanted to talk to its cruel master Lin Xun. 

Lin Xun also felt a bit of a headache regarding this. He was contemplating whether to find a good time to have a heart-to-heart talk with Little Silver. 

It was then that Kou Xing’s thrilled voice rang outside the cabin. “Ahead is the famous Chaos Star Beach in the Boundary River. Once we cross there, we shall arrive at the East Victory World within half a day!”
