The Prodigies War

Chapter 1672: Overestimate Capability?

It was a giant canyon with a sacred and wondrous glow that cast a magnificent golden hue at the clouds in the sky.

The impressive golden canyon stretched miles across the vast, boundless world. The sheer scale of it was truly spectacular.

Sunset Current Valley!

In the distance, Lin Xun’s dark eyes were cold and without a ripple of emotion.

Standing beside him, the big black bird quickly informed him, “There are thirty-six heavenly oracles in this Golden Crow Clan, and all are at the True Saint Stage.

“There are also twelve Saint elders. Those old monsters should at least possess the strength of the Big Saint Stage.

“For example, Wu Hengtian, the current patriarch of the Golden Crow Clan, is a Big Saint cultivator.

“Additionally, there are approximately three thousand other members in the Golden Crow Clan. It’s not a terrifying number, but every one of them is a fierce, powerful character.

“Of course, to us, the heavenly oracles are of no significance. The ones we have to be wary of are the Saint elders.

“Compared with other ancient orthodoxies in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, in terms of foundation, the Golden Crow Clan is by no means inferior and might even be stronger.

“Moreover, Sunset Current Valley has been standing since the primeval era. It is the home of the Golden Crow Clan, and it is no exaggeration to say that it’s a dragon’s lair. If we just barge in and start killing, we might face unexpected dangers.

“Oh, by the way, as a Hidden Holy Land, these are just the surface-level powers of the Golden Crow Clan. According to the rumors in the world, even if there are no quasi-Emperors in the Golden Crow Lineage, there should at least be terrifying beings at the Saint-King level.”

Lin Xun couldn’t help but glance at the big black bird. “You seem to know a lot about them.”

The big black bird grinned proudly. “Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. I have been sharpening my blade. I plan to chop down the Sacred Fusang Tree and seize other treasures along the way. How would I not first investigate the enemy?”

Lin Xun remembered that Mister Shen mentioned that the quasi-Emperor figures of the Golden Crow Clan were serving at the Great Emperor Pass, but that did not mean no old monsters were watching over the Sunset Current Valley.

At the very least, there had to be Saint-King cultivators!

In the present Ancient Wasteland Domain, sects and clans with a Saint-King were regarded as an omnipotent existence that instilled fear in the world.

However, Lin Xun did not care.

A’lu rolled up his sleeves and asked, “Big Brother, should we launch a sneak attack, or should we wait and kill them one by one?”

“Sneak attack?”

The big black bird shook his head as soon as he heard that. “There are many forbidden restrictions in Sunset Current Valley. It’s impossible to find an opportunity for sneak attack. It also won’t be a good idea to just wait and kill them one by one. We are here to take revenge. Would it not be embarrassing if we failed to chop down the Sacred Fusang Tree?”

The thieving bird was still thinking about that tree!

“Then, what do you propose?” A’lu rolled his eyes.

The big black bird’s gaze shifted to Lin Xun. “Kid, he’s asking you.”

He was also curious as to what made Lin Xun so confident and fearless to come to the territory of the Golden Crow Clan. It should be noted that even Saint-Kings would first weigh the consequences before taking action against the Golden Crow Clan.

“What should we do? Of course we should drop by and announce our arrival,” Lin Xun said with a smile, his dark eyes unfathomable.

While talking, they were already thousands of feet away from Sunset Current Valley. In the distance loomed the entrance of an impressive canyon. It was permeated with a dazzling golden shade, which gave it a sacred atmosphere.

“What are you guys doing here?” A golden crow dove down from the sky and transformed into a slender young man. He had a haughty demeanor and ice-cold expression.

“If you have come to visit, then please show your invitation card. If you don’t have one then quickly get lost. This is not a place where you can come and leave as you please!”

At the same time, many figures appeared near the canyon, looking down at the group of uninvited guests.

“I am Lin Xun. I have come to visit the Golden Crow Clan!” Lin Xun’s voice was not particularly loud, but it rang loud and clear in everyone’s ear and even resounded throughout Sunset Current Valley.

“What? That’s Lin Xun?”

“Not good, that guy has come to get revenge!”

“Could that be right? This is the territory of our Golden Crow Clan. If he comes to take revenge, then is that not the same as coming to seek death?”

A low commotion broke out. Everyone was dumbfounded.

Lin Xun was the Number One of the Nine Domains Battlefield and currently the most dazzling supreme Saint in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. Who did not know his name?

But no one thought that, after vanishing for half a year, he would actually show up at the lair of the Golden Crow Clan!

For a moment, all eyes were fixed on Lin Xun, filled with a mix of bewilderment, hatred and fear.

Lin Xun paid no attention to those gazes. He stood silent and upright just three thousand feet away from Sunset Current Valley!

“You...are you going to destroy this place openly and honorably?” The big black bird widened its eyes in disbelief.

When did this kid become so crazy? He even disregards ancient clans from Hidden Holy Lands like the Golden Crow Clan?

“Be courteous before resorting to force. Let’s first test the strength of the Golden Crow Lineage.” Lin Xun said indifferently.

True Emperor Stage cultivators had once emerged from Sunset Current Valley, how would they not have any tricks up their sleeves?

Very quickly, figures, old and young, men and women, all surrounded in terrifying aura rushed out of the huge golden canyon.

They were headed by Wu Hengtian!

When he first heard about Lin Xun appearing at their door, he was a little apprehensive because he thought that Lin Xun had found some powerful supporters to help him.

Who would have thought they would be greeted with such a scene?

Lin Xun, Toady, A’lu and the big black bird were just standing there tall.

Besides them, there was no one else!

The figures standing around Wu Hengtian were all high-ranking experts and significant figures of the Golden Crow Clan. The scene completely took them aback?

Is Lin Xun actually crazy? He actually dares to come and provoke us like this?

“Haha, interesting, so interesting. The greatest enemy of our Golden Crow Clan is just a supreme True Saint, yet he dares to come to our door in such a mighty manner. Does he not want to live anymore or does he think our Golden Crow Clan is easy to bully?” Wu Hengtian laughed, but his murderous intent was undisguised in his expression.

Before he had gone to get revenge on the kid, the kid came to him on his own initiative. It made him feel like the heavens were on his side.

The others were also smiling coldly.

This was indeed too absurd.

They were at Sunset Current Valley, the lair of the Golden Crow Clan, but Lin Xun and his party dared to show up just like that!

Were they fearless?

Or were they overestimating their capabilities?

Facing those ice-cold, mocking gazes, Lin Xun remained undaunted.

He extended one finger and said calmly, “I am just here to do one thing. If you are wise then hand over the elder who you have been suppressing for endless years. Otherwise, you will face the consequences of your action.”

His one sentence caused an uproar. Many Golden Crow Clan experts thought they heard it wrong.

How dare he threaten their clan?

Who did he think he was, the great emperor of the world?

Even a quasi-Emperor would not behave in such a presumptuous manner?

He was just a supreme True Saint but he dared to say something so ridiculous, so absurd.

Some people looked puzzled and couldn’t help asking, “What elder?”

Someone explained, “The evil creature imprisoned under the Sacred Fusang Tree! It was suppressed there by the Demon Crow Great Emperor himself. This kid is here to rescue that evil creature. He who comes is surely ill-intentioned.”.

Wu Hengtian’s expression was extremely cold, and his eyes were as sharp as razor-blades as they locked on Lin Xun. “Little bastard, I haven’t come to you to seek revenge, yet you dare to come to provoke me. Do you have a death wish? So what if you have become a supreme True Saint? Before our Golden Crow Clan, you are nothing!”

All Golden Crow Clan experts nodded in agreement.

A supreme True Saint might be terrifyingly strong, but angering the Golden Crow Clan with just that level of power was no different from seeking death!

“Big Brother, it seems like those idiots are looking down on us.” A’lu’s eyes swirled with killing intent. He barely resisted the urge to charge out and fight.

“This proves that those old guys are indeed ignorant, but it seems like they are not stupid. They can’t read us so they don’t dare to make any reckless moves. Otherwise, why would they talk so much nonsense and not take action yet?” Toady chuckled.

“You’re right, those crows can only caw.” A’lu grinned mockingly.

After experiencing the storms of the Nine Domains Battlefield, how would they be intimidated by such a scene?

As long as Lin Xun was around, they would not be afraid even if they were to fight with the King of Heaven!

The faces of Wu Hengtian and other important figures of the Golden Crow Clan turned overcast. It was indeed true that they could not read them so they hadn’t taken action yet.

Even if they despised Lin Xun, they knew they must not underestimate Lin Xun.

After all, he was a fierce character who forged a reputation for himself with his own strength. He was the Number One of the Nine Domains Battlefield. How would he act recklessly?

Since he dared to show up so openly, he had to have some tricks up his sleeve!

This was the reason why Wu Hengtian and the others did not use force right away.

If other cultivators dared to behave in such an arrogant and provocative manner in front of their lair, they would have swatted them to death like flies and not wasted time talking to them.

Suddenly, Lin Xun sighed, “It seems like I have to resort to violence.”

“You guys are far from enough to do anything!” Wu Hengtian snorted.

He had already restrained himself to the point where he was about to erupt like a volcano, murderous intent was already flaring all around his body.

The other old monsters also donned hostile looks.

An austere atmosphere pervaded the world, and the air became oppressive and suffocating.

Lin Xun smiled in response and was about to take action when a heroic and unrestrained laughter resounded from the distance—

“Xiao Cangtian of Clear Wind Valley is here!”

Boom!

A majestic figure whizzed through the air and landed in front of everyone, followed by a terrifyingly showy and unbridled aura spreading outwards.

The person had a long blade resting over his shoulder. It was Xiao Cangtian.

Wu Hengtian and others narrowed their eyes.

Only very few people in the world might know about the Clear Wind Valley, but almost all old monsters who had set foot into the Saint Stage knew very well that it was a mysterious and terrifying Hidden Holy Land!

At least in terms of foundation, it was comparable to the Golden Crow Clan.

Was this what Lin Xun planned to rely on?

Wu Hengtian and others sneered inwardly. Only one person from the Clear Wind Valley came, yet he thinks he can go up against the Golden Crow Clan?

He is overestimating his capabilities!

However, the next second, another sharp and clear clang rang in the air, filled with murderous intent.
