The Prodigies War

An uproar spread as startled voices and surprised looks rapidly emerged.

Lin Xun ignored everything as he continued to advance.

The inverted mountain was thirty thousand feet ahead, surrounded by rising flames and a flowing hazy glow.

Amidst it all, the dao scripture Treasure Refining Dao Qi appeared especially eye-catching.

At the same time, the purple flames that accompanied dao scripture were also the most terrifying and ferocious they had seen thus far.

These Soul-Destroying Wind Flames were unique to Treasure Refining Land and even supreme Big Saints didn't dare to face them directly without the protection of powerful treasures.

Rumble!

Another purple avian arrived from the sky and aggressively swooped down at Lin Xun.

This time, Wen Qingxue, Tao Jianxing, and others made sure to carefully observe.

The ferociously burning flames that melted even space itself were subdued and swallowed by the All-Wonder Dao Fire before they could approach Lin Xun.

It looked as effortless as crushing a moth plunging toward the fire!

Wen Qingxue's, Tao Jianxing's, and the others' expressions changed. The powerful treasures they wielded were the sole reason they dared to brave such grave danger to approach the inverted mountain.

Even with the treasures, they faced strong resistance as they advanced and had to use their full power to defend against and neutralize the flames. As a result, their progress was pretty slow.

In contrast, Lin Xun's situation was completely different. All obstructions were easily erased by him, making him appear rather conspicuous.

"Abominable!"

Someone inwardly cursed, feeling a sense of unfairness as an ominous glint flashed in his eyes.

Another expert's expression turned grave. "Not good..."

An expert directly took action and attacked, unable to tolerate being overtaken by Lin Xun.

Rumble!

A several-thousand-feet-long stream of blazing sword qi swept forth and slashed at Lin Xun.

Gasps rang out in the surroundings.

Lin Xun waved his sleeve and summoned a swirling abyss. With a loud rumble, the sword qi crumbled inch by inch as it was destroyed.

Lin Xun raised his gaze to get a clear view of the attacker.

It was a thin blue-robed man with silvery skin, a horn growing on his forehead, and deep, cold eyes.

The horned man was momentarily stunned by the sight of Lin Xun neutralizing the sword qi.

The experts who were watching from afar immediately broke out into noisy discussions.

"Lu Ang of the Blood Qilin Battle Clan is so domineering..."

"Can't you see that Lu Ang is in front of Lin Xun, how can he allow Lin Xun to catch up?"

"Heh heh, looks like we're in for a treat."

From their conversations, Lin Xun learned about the horned man's identity.

Lu Ang was a descendant of one of the Ten Great Battle Clans, the Blood Qilin Battle Clan. He was also a supreme Big Saint ranked 77th on the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings.

Lu Ang frostily said, "Withdraw now and I will spare you."

A blood-red beast bone floated above him, giving off glaring blood-red light as it fought off a nearby purple avian.

He was clearly being extremely rude as he threatened Lin Xun.

The other experts scattered across the area such as Wen Qingxue, Tao Jianxing, and the others watched with the cold eyes of a bystander. Of course, they did so while continuing to advance as quickly as possible.

Clang!

The Broken Blade cut through the air like a streak of snow-white light.

This was Lin Xun's reply!

Lu Ang's expression darkened. With a thought, a sword seal flew out and transformed into a giant mountain that sent out an eruption of sinister sword qi.

A mighty wave of sword qi unfurled, composed of countless streams of sword qi that were individually capable of slaying a Saint!

Rumble~

An earth-shaking collision followed as the mighty torrent of sword qi smashed into the Broken Blade.

From afar, the Broken Blade seemed unstoppable as if it cut a straight line through the torrent of sword qi.

In the end, the sword seal mountain was split apart by the Broken Blade amidst an avalanche-like collapse of light specks.

The dreadful backlash caused Lu Ang to jerk violently as his qi and blood churned erratically.

Strong!

Lu Ang's expression changed.

Without giving him any time to catch his breath, the Broken Blade slashed at him again, its edge flowing with terrifying, heart-palpitating dao light.

Lu Ang felt his blood run cold as he desperately defended himself with all his might.

However, he was immediately sent flying. Blood flowed from his lips, a sign that he was seriously injured.

To make matters worse, a nearby purple avian took advantage of the situation to attack.

However, Lu Ang was still a ranker of the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings. At this critical moment, he managed to tap into his latent potential and escape from the area.

He appeared several thousand feet away with an ugly expression.

As a result of the attack, his previous advantage had been lost and he had no choice but to start anew if he wished to approach the inverted mountain.

"A mantis trying to stop a cart, how ridiculous."

Lin Xin revealed a mocking expression.

Wen Qingxue, Tao Jianxing, and the others couldn't help but inwardly shiver. None of them had expected Lu Ang's decision to end up hurting himself instead.

At the same time, they were alarmed by the strength Lin Xun had displayed.

The watching experts in the distance also trembled, feeling that Lin Xun was simply too strong. As expected of the person who had killed Yan Chunjun.

Lu Ang gnashed his teeth and roared, "Little shit, if I can't get the Treasure Refining Dao Qi, you won't be able to either!"

Rumble!

He summoned a dazzling snow-white brass ring that immediately accelerated toward Lin Xun.

Alpha Yin Hoop!

It was a famous ancient treasure rumored to weigh 18,000 pounds. Even a light blow from it would probably disfigure the terrain.

Clang!

The Broken Blade rose to meet it. With a single strike, the Alpha Yin Hoop was knocked away, causing it to wail in agony as a crack appeared on its surface.

Lu Ang was shocked and furious, unable to believe his eyes.

The Alpha Yin Hoop was an ancient treasure of great origin yet it had been damaged in a single blow.

Lin Xun coldly said, "Don't make me kill you."

Meanwhile, he continued to speed forward.

With the All-Wonder Dao Fire's help, his progress was practically unimpeded, allowing him to swiftly approach the inverted mountain.

Lu Ang's expression changed indeterminately. Just as he was planning to attack again, a chilling murderous intent suddenly enveloped him.

He inwardly shivered as he instinctively turned to see a yellow-clothed woman murderously glaring at him.

Moreover, he also realized that many experts in the vicinity were waiting to see him make a fool of himself again.

This made Lu Ang cool his head and forcibly restrain his urge to attack.

Meanwhile, Wen Qingxue suddenly halted and inwardly sighed with a complicated expression.

There was no longer any chance because the gap was too big!

Soon, Tao Jianxing and others also stopped one after another, revealing cloudy expressions.

Lin Xun had left them far behind as if he was riding a superior steed, making it impossible to catch up.

Any further efforts were bound to be futile.

Tao Jianxing icily snorted as his voice rang out across the area, "Hmph! So what if he manages to obtain that Treasure Refining Dao Qi? Given the many experts present, I'd like to see how he'll defend it!"

His words resonated with many experts.

As the saying went, it was a crime to own great treasure. Although Lin Xun might obtain the dao scripture Treasure Refining Dao Qi, would the gathered crowd just watch and let him leave with it?

For a time, everyone, including those who had only been observing previously, began to entertain certain thoughts.

"Not good, they're thinking about snatching the treasure!"

A'hu's heart thumped in trepidation.

Swish!

In the distance, Lin Xun effortlessly ascended the inverted mountain.

The nearby divine flames raged as light haze flowed, producing a frightening aura of destruction. However, all of it was quelled by the All-Wonder Dao Fire.

The dao scripture glowed brightly as a sacred aura spread from it.

Lin Xun took a deep breath as he prepared to collect the Treasure Refining Dao Qi. However, he suddenly noticed a badly damaged copper piece in front of a boulder nearby. The damaged copper piece was engulfed in flames and was difficult to discover unless one paid close attention.

The unremarkable blackish copper piece was as large as a fist. When Lin Xun's gaze fell upon it, he was immediately drawn in as he sensed a hazy, ancient aura.

He reached out, intending to pick it up and inspect it more closely. However, he quickly realized the unremarkable black copper piece was incredibly heavy.

With a deep breath, he circulated all of his power and finally managed to pick it up and hold it in his hand.

Lin Xun's heart rippled as he revealed a look of disbelief. It felt as if he was carrying an ancient divine mountain that was unbelievably heavy.

What was this mysterious object?

Lin Xun sent out a wisp of spirit sense to inspect it.

Rumble!

In an instant, astonishing images surfaced in his mind.

A raging furnace towered over the land. Purplish-gold divine flames burned inside the furnace, producing waves of Emperor Dao Law Power.

Even the sky seemed as if it was about to be burned away as a dreadful heat flowed everywhere.

An indistinct voice sounded from the void, "Today, I will forge nine Emperor weapons with this furnace to protect Kunlun!"

Next...

A divine sword burst out of the furnace. Its almighty sword intent alarmed the nine heavens and ten lands as it stirred the aura of the world, accompanied by chant-like dao sounds.

The sword was quickly followed by a battle spear, a bronze lamp, a battle flag, a dao seal, a jade bottle, a set of armor, a circular jade plate, and a divine blade.

Each treasure exuded a heavenly vision and possessed earth-shaking power. Their mere presence caused the surrounding space to collapse and cave in.

Soon after, a mighty tribulation descended, seeking to destroy these peerless treasures!

Lin Xun was so terrified that he forgot to breathe. It felt as if his soul was leaving his body.

Every treasure and the descending tribulation was terrifying beyond imagination. They were things that were far beyond his current level.

Lin Xun's mind buzzed loudly as his vision swirled.

The scenes rapidly disappeared as strange knowledge flowed into his mind.

Lin Xun was drenched in cold sweat as he gazed at the blackish copper piece again, seeing it in a whole new light.

Who could have imagined that this inconspicuous black copper piece was once a part of the furnace that had produced nine Emperor weapons?
