The Prodigies War

Chapter 1730: One Step Turns the World Upside Down

“Rise!”

“Rise!”

“Rise!”

Dozens of supreme Big Saints, including Gu Cangxin, Kun Jiulin and Tao Jianxing, were standing tall in midair.

Some raised small apricot-colored flags, some held red bronze bells, some activated purple compasses, and some flourished ancient scrolls in the air.

Inside the Demon Slaying World Chaos Array, dao rumbled and light swept across, casting all sorts of doomsday-like visions.

Everyone gasped audibly at the earth-shattering scene.

An ancient killing array was being directed and operated by dozens of supreme Big Saints. Even if a Saint-King was trapped inside, they likely would be doomed!

Lin Xun was only a supreme Big Saint. He might have displayed astonishing strength and abilities in the previous exchange of blows, but…

“It’s over for Lin Xun…”

On the mountain path, some sharp-eyed spectators concluded the outcome based on the deadly power released by the great array.

Anyone in the Big Saint Stage, once trapped, would not survive!

Rumble!

The power of the Demon Slaying World Chaos Array grew increasingly terrifying, causing the sky and the earth to shake and rumble and the vast Imperial Dragon Mountain show signs of collapse.

Fortunately, Imperial Dragon Mountain, one of the Nine Secrets of the Kunlun Dominion, was incomparably strong and solid, almost indestructible, and withstood the destructive aura of the killing array.

If this happened in the outside world, even a vast city would be instantly wiped out, let alone a mountain!

“Kill!” Tao Jianxing was in high spirits and an evil smile cracked over his lips. He felt delighted and liberated.

Before this, they were constrained by Lin Xun in every way, which was so frustrating and infuriating that he almost coughed up blood. But now it was different. Lin Xun was like a trapped beast, waiting to be slaughtered.

“Well, everyone, be careful. That kid’s life is not important, but don’t destroy the treasures on him.” Gu Cangxin chuckled complacently.

“This time, we were only able to trap and kill that kid because of Brother Gu’s killing array. It is indeed worthy of being one of the Five Saint Arrays of the Heaven and Earth Dao Court. This really opened my eyes,” Kun Jiulin exclaimed.

Everyone else nodded in agreement.

The power of the array truly shocked the heavens and earth and made the gods and demons weep. Its unbelievable destructive power caused feelings of fear and unease even in them.

“Thanks everyone. Actually, Lin Xun is very capable, but unfortunately, he is too crazy. It never ends well for crazy people like him!” Gu Cangxin said with a modest smile.

They talked loudly among themselves, as if victory was already within their grasp.

The spectators on the mountain path sighed inwardly. Lin Xun was more than just a remarkable and formidable character. He killed Yan Chunjun, defeated Lu Ang and also dominated the battle on the inverted mountain and escaped unscathed!

Moreover, if he was just an ordinary strong character, how could he attract so many successors and descendants of powerful forces to join forces to deal with him?

It was no exaggeration to say that, although he came from the Ancient Wasteland Domain, his extraordinary combat strength, ability, and grace trumped that of many of his peers in the Ancient Nebula Road. Many peerless figures on the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings would be ashamed to keep their heads up in front of him!

But reality was too cruel. From today onwards, such a heaven-defyingly extraordinary person was doomed to be removed from the world...

Who would not sob with pity?

“Huh?”

But at this moment, Gu Cangxin wrinkled his brows, realizing something was wrong.

His spirit sense spread outwards, investigating the inside of the array. The next moment, his eyes went wide and his jaw dropped. “How is that possible?”

His voice quivered with astonishment, as if the most unbelievable thing had happened in the world.

Kun Jiulin was taken aback by his cry and couldn’t help asking, “Brother Gu, could it be that the treasures on that kid have all been destroyed?”

The others also looked bewildered.

Boom!

It was at this moment that all the divine brilliance, dao light, and visions inside of the Demon Slayer Chaos World Array exploded and was dissipated by a terrifyingly mighty force.

The scene inside the great array was clearly presented to everyone.

Lin Xun was standing alone in the same spot, unruffled and unscathed. His moon-white robe fluttering in the wind made him look as ethereal as a celestial being.

“He…”

The eyes of Kun Jiulin, Tao Jianxing, and the others bulged so wide that they almost popped out of their sockets. They looked as if they had seen a ghost, and the smug smiles froze on their faces.

How is that possible?

They had been singing praises of the astonishing Demon Slaying World Chaos Array. It could imprison and kill even a Saint-King.

But Lin Xun, who had been trapped in the array, seemed untouched!

“Heavens!”

“Did I see it wrong?”

“He...he...he is completely fine?”

Everyone was stupefied, faces twisted with shock disbelief. Before this, they were still sighing and finding Lin Xun’s death a pity.

Who would have thought that Lin Xun did not need anyone’s pity?!

Even the Demon Slaying World Chaos Array that could make anyone despair could not touch him at all!

Everyone stood in stunned silence, even their minds and spirits were stricken.

Inside the array, Lin Xun asked with a confused look on his face, “Why did you all stop? Come on, please continue your performance.” His words stabbed at the hearts of Gu Cangxin and the others like a sharp knife.

Their faces clouded at those words and smoke almost came out of their heads.

This was the most blatant mocking and humiliation, a burning shame, like a loud slap across their faces!

“Kill! Fight with all your strength to get rid of that evil creature!” Gu Cangxin thundered, veins popping on his forehead.

Rumble!

The great array was activated once again, with much greater power than before.

Whether it was Tao Jianxing, Kun Jiulin, or other supreme Big Saints, they all unleashed their full power to control the array.

Lin Xun’s figure was once again drowned by a sea of dao light and divine brilliance.

“This time, it should be enough right?” After a while, Tao Jianxing spoke with a cold and solemn look on his face.

Although he could control the array, he was unaware of the situation in the array. Only Gu Cangxin, who was in charge of the array, could sense it.

Therefore, Tao Jianxing looked at Gu Cangxin as he asked.

Right away, he noticed that Gu Cangxin was not his usual self. His pupils were constricted, his teeth gnashed, and his face was twisted with an expression of disbelief, anger, and shock.

The others also noticed it and their hearts sank. Could it be…

Boom!

The array rumbled again and a rain of light exploded.

Lin Xun was seen standing in the rain of light. Although he did not move a step, he seemed to be invulnerable to all attacks!

Even the array power that could wipe out a Saint-King began to dissipate around him.

Everyone was stunned into silence.

The spectators on the mountain path were stupefied. They had never encountered something so incredible ever since they started cultivating!

“Is this your so-called killing array?” Lin Xun questioned. “It’s…nothing special!”

He finally moved, advancing a step.

Boom!

It was just a step, but it seemed to exude supreme power. The great Demon Slaying World Chaos Array exploded and collapsed by itself.

Divine light surged turbulently, and complex dao runes faded.

With one step, the world was turned upside down and the array was destroyed!

Everyone stood aghast as they watched the tall and imposing figure walk freely out of the array.

He was like a divine being!

“Is this the supreme ability of a dao rune founder…” A’hu spaced out with astonishment, equally amazed by Lin Xun’s feat.

“The massacre starts now!” A low and cold voice swept the area like a glacial current as Lin Xun disappeared from the spot.

The next moment, he reappeared before a group of cultivators and dazzling sword intent flared around him like he was a simmering great dao cauldron.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

It was simply impossible to block the attacks. In the blink of an eye, cultivators were submerged and exploded in the raging sword intent. The moment their flesh and blood flew out, they were incinerated by the sword qi.

Nothing was left of them. Their entire body was reduced to ashes!

Gu Cangxin and the others shuddered at the domineering and overpowering scene. They could no longer think about anything else and just strike back with all their might.

“Quickly do something!”

“Together! Kill that kid!”

Frustrated roars shook the heavens and the earth. At the summit of Imperial Dragon Mountain, all major forces successors were dispatched, surrounding Lin Xun like overlapping waves.

Rumble—

All kinds of unfathomable dao arts and splendid treasures roamed in the area as if they were freed.

The world changed color, and the void was plunged into chaos!

The spectators couldn’t help but gasp, drawing back in fear of being swept into the chaos.

“You can’t win one-on-one, but you also won’t win even if it is many against one!”

Lin Xun suddenly glowed like he was a cauldron burning fiercely. The murderous intent and pent up anger in his heart completely erupted in that moment.

Clang!

Broken Blade slashed out, its clear cry resounding throughout the nine heavens. With a light flash, the bodies of several cultivators were sliced in half at the waist, and blood-curdling screams rang endlessly.

Boom!

Lin Xun activated his dao arts. As he drew breath, a thunderstorm seemed to rage and murderous intent swept the world. He roamed unstoppable across the battlefield, looking down on everyone else like an overpowered demon god.

Wherever he passed, all daos arts and precious treasures were destroyed and blasted away.

His unrivaled divine power struck all spectators dumb.

“Kill!”

Gu Cangxin drew his sword and came charging forward, black sword qi roaring into the sky from his body. His face was livid and menacing, and his every stroke was ruthless.

Shua!

In his hand, the divine sword was as mighty as a rainbow, drawing upon the abundant power of heaven and earth. Wherever his sword pointed, the nearby space split with a terrifying straight crack.

He was Gu Cangxin, a fierce character ranked in the top hundred of the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings. His enraged attack was naturally extraordinary.

But…

Lin Xun shattered the devastating sword intent with just a thrust of his palm. The force of the palm spread out and blasted Gu Cangxin across the air.

Bang!

With a muffled sound, blood gushed from Gu Cangxin’s mouth and nostrils, and he smashed hard into a boulder like a kite with a snapped string. His vision blurred and he saw stars.

One palm strike rendered Gu Cangxin defenseless!

Many people felt their hair stand on end. Is he human?

Kun Jiulin, Tao Jianxing and other supreme Big Saints who had clashed with Lin Xun before all concluded that Lin Xun had grown stronger again.

Not only had his cultivation level broken through to the intermediate Big Saint Stage, even his strength had more than doubled compared to before!
