The Prodigies War

Chapter 1080 Grabbing that Fortune of Immortality

Mind of Cultivator!

This was the magical effect that came into being after Qiuniu Heart was upgraded.

As the ninth transformation of the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations, the Qiuniu Heart was not a fighting art and had nothing to do with combat at all.

Its only function was to assist the cultivator in comprehending the quintessence of grand dao, which helped accelerate their progress in grand dao mastery.

The so-called Mind of Cultivator was a wonderful ability that stimulated one’s state of mind to harmonize with the grand dao and better understand it.

In the past, when Lin Xun studied the fire grand dao, it had taken him half a year to reach the stage of Dao Ripple.

But now with the help of Mind of Cultivator, it would only take him at most half the time to reach that point!

Lin Xun could not help but marvel at this new ability.

He knew very well that if such a miraculous aid in learning the grand dao was known to exist, the entire world would fight over it!

After all, enlightenment of the dao had always been one of the most difficult and arduous things in the path of cultivation.

Without the rare opportunity where one suddenly caught a glimpse of enlightenment, simply spending time alone was not enough to touch the truths of grand dao.

But with the help of Mind of Cultivator, enlightenment would undoubtedly become much easier!

“The True Dragon Dao is truly miraculous. Only after being fused with it did the Tribulation Dragon Nine Transformations reveal its complete power. And without a doubt, the ninth transformation, Qiuniu Heart, is the most marvelous!”

Originally, Lin Xun had been a little worried that he wouldn’t have enough time left in the Immortal Secret Realm to bring his comprehension of Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer to the peak Dao Truth stage.

Now, this worry had been dispelled by the mastery of the wonderful Mind of Cultivator.

……

Another month passed.

Lin Xun had fully figured out the mysteries of the Birth Destruction Slash!

He was certain that if he utilized this slash at full strength, he could smash through Ye Chen’s Picturesque Kingdom and Xiao Cangtian’s No Return without having to use the power of Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer.

Time continued to fly by.

In his sixth month in the Immortal Secret Realm, Lin Xun finally tapped into the Impermanence Slash.

Impermanence was the absence of certainty!

It was as unfathomable and unpredictable as fate.

The highs and lows of the world, the rotations of the four seasons, and the changes between the heavens and earth all progressed in a gradual manner between the constant and the impermanent, thus giving birth to an endless number of variables.

The saying ‘unconditioned dharmas are like illusions and dreams, short-lived like dew and fast like lightning, and should be viewed as such,’ was the meaning of impermanence.

Ancient sages had even said, “When impermanence comes, all dharmas are destroyed!”

The Impermanence Slash was the same. Like a variable, it was vague and moldable to one’s heart desire with a fickle, murderous intent!

It was worth mentioning that the axioms of the Impermanence Slash were closely related to that of the Birth Destruction Slash.

Only through Birth Destruction could one fathom Impermanence, the truth of which could no longer be described as difficult in a worldly sense. It involved the variations of the grand dao, which was simply heaven-defying.

Even with Lin Xun’s new enlightenment ability, it still took him a month to comprehend just a sliver of the truth of the Impermanence Slash.

And just this sliver of truth made his heart tremble.

It was already too powerful!

This strike was like a nebulous variable that appeared in a flash. If one had no means to dodge or parry it, they were destined to be killed!

“It’s a pity I don’t have enough time to fully comprehend this slash…”

Lin Xun sighed. The mysteries behind the Impermanence Slash were too obscure. He had a feeling that he wouldn’t be able to grasp ten percent of them even if he spent a year doing so!

Therefore, focusing solely on it would undoubtedly waste his remaining time in the Immortal Secret Realm.

“However, a mere sliver of its truth is already powerful enough to be my killer move. So long as I slowly hone it, its power will only become stronger in the future.”

Taking a deep breath, Lin Xun suppressed the urge to continue comprehending the Impermanence Slash and moved his focus to Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer.

Buzz~~

Mind of Cultivator was activated, instantly allowing Lin Xun to resonate with the power of Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer, deduce, and study its mysteries.

Time passed as he immersed himself in comprehending the grand dao, not realizing that a hazy figure had soundlessly come out of his sea of consciousness.

The slender and delicate figure was surrounded by clear, bright, and orderly divine-looking chains. Appearing alongside her was a rain of blazing light and an array of colorful clouds.

Because of her presence, the eternal night in the Immortal Secret Realm abruptly gained magnificent vitality.

As she stood there casually, she had an aura of overlooking the heavens and earth that made even time bow its head.

“Immortal Secret Realm, time fragments… The conquest of the heavens back then left traces that still remain until today… But those people are all long…gone.”

The figure lamented softly as she seemed to recall something from her memories. Then, her gaze fell on Lin Xun without any intent in it, so it did not startle him from his enlightenment.

After looking at him silently for a long time, she withdrew her gaze and fell into deep thought.

“When one enters a mountain of treasures, there is no reason to return empty-handed… I will forsake a bit of karma to gift you an opportunity. The great era is coming, I won’t have time to wait for the next person if you were to fall…”

In the end, she made up her mind and raised her beautiful, jade-like hand.

In that instant, it was as if she was the lord of the realm as her aura spread out in all directions.

Rumble~

The boundless Immortal Secret Realm suddenly shook violently. Its void churned like tidal waves, stirring up big movements.

Whoosh!

The figure made a clawing gesture and pulled out a strand of obscure power, which then turned into a twisted-looking symbol emitting an immortal aura.  

This was Immortality Power, and contained within it was the pure dao of immortality!

With a snap of the woman’s fingers, the symbol flew into Lin Xun’s head.

“Who?!”

An indifferent voice resounded as the spirit servant suddenly appeared, covered in an immortal, divine aura.

However, the Immortal Secret Realm had been restored to its natural silence and not a trace of unusual movement could be found.

There was only Lin Xun, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground. He was still deep in enlightenment, oblivious to the changes around him.

The spirit servant fell into a long silence.

In the end, he glanced at Lin Xun and turned to leave without a word.

The split second he turned around, his back revealed a pit on it, seemingly to have been scratched out by someone as the finger marks were still there.

If someone saw this, their jaw would drop in utter shock. The spirit servant was the will of Immortal Sacred Mountain! Who could grab a piece of meat from his body?!

Of course, it was not real flesh, but a piece of Law Power. However, this only made it more terrifying.

……

Ten months into the secluded cultivation in the Immortal Secret Realm, the void around Lin Xun violently collapsed with a deafening noise as if it was swallowed up by something.

At the center, Lin Xun was like an unfathomable abyss, exuding a horrifyingly vast might.

In the air above him, a phenomena of waning starry rivers and collapsing skies flickered, quiet but soul-shaking.

Only after a long time did the phenomena disappear.

Lin Xun opened his eyes. When he felt the changes in the power of the grand dao around him, his lips curled up into a joyous smile.

Success!

His Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer had stepped into the peak Dao Truth stage along with his fire and water grand dao!

Lin Xun raised his right hand with his palm facing the sky. In an instant, his palm turned into an abyss that swallowed the eternal night around it, making the void collapse inch by inch.

Then, it turned into a black hole, fitting just right in his palm, but it had the power to engulf a galaxy!

“Does Yun Qingbai…also grasp this kind of power?” Lin Xun’s eyes deepened as he pondered.

A while later, he shook his head.

He was very sure there was no chance for Yun Qingbai to master this dao!

Their origin aeth arteries might be the same, but Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer was something Lin Xun had grasped from a stone tablet at the Dao Lantern Festival.

Without an origin aeth artery, no one would be able to comprehend this dao. Without that stone tablet, neither Lin Xun nor Yun Qingbai would be able to master this dao!

“They all say my Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer is extremely similar Yun Qingbai’s signature dao, so his dao should be related to devouring. I wonder how strong it is compared to my Star Annihilation Heaven Devourer…” Lin Xun murmured.

For the next two months, Lin Xun didn’t further improve in his martial cultivation, but instead honed and stabilized his new ability.

‘Too much is as bad as too little’ was a principle that applied to cultivation as well.

This seclusion had already allowed him to make a breakthrough in all aspects and undergo great changes, and what he had to do was to stabilize this new power.

Only in this way could he control his power with greater ease and wield it as freely as he wished.

In fact, Lin Xun had almost reached the ultimate in martial cultivation.

In terms of dao cultivation, only the Impermanence Flash had not been perfected.

On his cultivation of grand daos, only the True Dragon Grand Dao was far from the stage of Dao Meaning as it had just reached Dao Ripple.

Hmm?

The time to one year was getting closer and closer. On the day when Lin Xun was about to sharpen his spirit sense, he suddenly realized that, at some point, a strange and twisted black symbol had appeared in his sea of consciousness!

Upon touching it, an indestructible aura of immortality surged!

This…

Lin Xun’s pupils shrunk. Could this be the Truth of Immortality?

His heart quivered in disbelief.

It was at this moment that the spirit servant’s voice rang out, “I don’t know who helped you obtain the Power of Immortality, but since you got it, it’s your fortunate opportunity. I won’t take it back.”

Lin Xun looked towards the spirit servant who had appeared in the distance. The latter’s complexion was still devoid of any emotions.

It really is Immortality Power?

Lin Xun’s shock grew when he heard that someone had secretly helped to seize this supreme, peerless power!

Could it be her?

His heart trembled when he remembered the mysterious woman in the Omega Secret Realm.

She was the only one he could think of who was capable of such an incredible ability!

“Time is almost up, you should leave.”

Making no further comment on the matter, the spirit servant merely informed Lin Xun that the deadline for the one year of seclusion was approaching!
