The Prodigies War

The altar was 990 feet tall, towering like a lofty mountain as it was bathed in the holy starry river of dao light.

It stood there, draped in the mottled aura of time.

However, when inspected carefully, it suddenly seemed ordinary.

But in the eyes of the Saints, this was an image of returning to the basics, which made this altar all the more special. The Law Power imprinted on it caused them to tremble under an oppressive feeling.

Almost all at the same time, the same scene happened in the three thousand Grounds of Enlightenment, holy light beams descended and formed ancient dao altars. 

Immediately, the domain was in an uproar.

Even the Saints of all parties watched with fervent desire in their eyes, but unfortunately, they had no chances with this supreme opportunity.

The Holy Worship Altar was the passage node to the Supreme Realm. By simply stepping onto this altar, one would be teleported to its corresponding region!

“Go!”

Calls rang out, and the cultivators surged towards the altar like a raging tide.

Many powerful figures watched with emotions. This was an unprecedentedly brilliant great era, and the Supreme Realm was destined to host the most intense battles among geniuses in history!

Who would be able to step on their peers and rise up to the sky?

Who would be the lucky ones to achieve the Supreme King stage?

Everything would be revealed in the Realm of the Supreme!

……

“Forward!”

All the cultivators in the ancient battlefield were scrambling towards the Holy Worship Altar like crazy.

Even the supreme characters and the top-class geniuses couldn’t remain calm. They launched into action without hesitation.

“Who dares to block my path?! Scram!”

A group of Golden Crow Clan experts rushed forward, their bodies flowing with a golden fire as they forcefully paved a path through the crowd.

Wu Lingfei easily followed along and stepped onto the Holy Worship Altar.

Rumble!

A group of ancient creatures from the Thousand Beast Spirit Mountain charged and crashed through the other cultivators on their path to the Holy Worship Altar.

This was very overbearing, but no one paid any mind to it because similar things were happening everywhere in the field.

In order to be the first to enter the Supreme Realm, the disciples of the ancient dao lineages couldn’t care less who they blasted away for standing in their way!

“Let’s move as well.” Sandwiched in the flood of people, Lin Xun took Toady and A’lu to move forward.

Buzz~

The ancient altar frequently flashed with a dao light, and the cultivators who stepped on it instantly vanished into thin air.

“AHHH!”

A miserable scream echoed. It turned out to be an old King monster who was blown away, bleeding through his mouth and nose as he was nearly put to death on the spot!

This person had used a mysterious treasure to suppress his cultivation to the Cyclic Derivation stage. However, it was to no avail as not only was the treasure destroyed, but he also had almost perished.

Upon witnessing such a scene, some old King monsters who had the same plan felt their hearts turn cold with fear and no longer dared to go forward.

However, some still refused to believe it!

Boom!

The earth shook as a Saint from the Golden Crow Clan swooped down from the sky like lightning, dazzling golden light vaporizing from their almost illusory figure.

Obviously, even Saints couldn’t resist the lure of the Supreme Realm and would risk everything to enter it.

The result, however, was heart-palpitating. Streams of Law Power pierced through the Saint. Drenched in blood, they shrieked in agony and fled in fear.

All the powerful experts who saw this scene felt their scalps tingle and trembled in shock.

That was a Saint!

Yet they were unable to take a round from the Holy Worship Altar and were seriously injured in an instant, terrifyingly so.

By this point, even the Saints extinguished the thought of trying, realizing that this unprecedented great opportunity was something they could not touch.

The scene was chaotic as the number of cultivators in the field was too high, and they swarmed toward the Holy Worship Altar, packing its surroundings.

Lin Xun didn’t encounter too many obstacles with A’lu opening the path for him like a savage god, just his ferocious aura alone forced the cultivators along the way to retreat.

Very soon, A’lu reached the destination, followed by Toady who disappeared with him.

But just as Lin Xun arrived at the altar, something bizarre happened.

Whoosh!

A ray out of nowhere shot toward his head.

The ray was so thin that it was almost invisible. That coupled with its incredible speed and the chaotic surroundings made it hard to notice.

Lin Xun’s pupils shrunk. It was too late to dodge, so he had to use Baxia Imprisonment. It would be enough to stop the ray for just an instant!

To Lin Xun’s surprise, the skill that could instantly imprison a supreme opponent suddenly became useless at this moment. The ray pierced through without a problem and kept aiming for the center of his eyebrows.

However, he was not alarmed because he had identified this to be a spirit attack.

“Slash!”

Little Silver, who was sitting cross-legged in Lin Xun’s sea of consciousness, abruptly opened his eyes and slashed out an invisible sword intent.

The thin ray was actually a light-gray needle that was as thin as a strand of hair, and it was a rare spirit treasure that was extremely devious and poisonous.

If it were any other cultivator, then this needle could easily erase their primordial spirit.

But under Little Silver’s slash, it shattered into fragments with a bang.

Little Silver grabbed the fragments and put them into his mouth. He chewed for a while before violently retching, his expression ugly, “Tastes like crap!”

At the same time, a shocked voice rang out, “How can this be?!”

Lin Xun immediately located the source of the voice.

The person had a delicate face, a glossy forehead, and a stern demeanor. It was Ling Hua, the ancient freak of Mysterious Metropolis Sect.

At this moment, she had the look of shock and disbelief on her face.

That light-gray silver needle was an invaluable soul treasure with a terrifying killing power. If it wasn’t for the sake of taking revenge on Lin Xun, then she wouldn’t have resorted to it.

However, not only was it destroyed but Lin Xun was also completely unharmed!

Clank!

Without hesitation, Lin Xun deployed the Broken Blade and chopped at Ling Hua.

This woman was simply too cruel, using a sneak attack right before he entered the Supreme Realm. She clearly wanted to catch him off guard and take his life!

Therefore, Lin Xun did not hold back his strength at all.

Ling Hua screamed, obviously sensing the imminent threat against her. She immediately fled in the direction of the ancient altar.

There were too many cultivators in the field, so this strike would accidentally injure many people if it manifested. Lin Xun could only put away the Broken Blade with an icy expression.

“Stinking hag, don’t let me catch you!” he spat coldly.

Ling Hua looked back, her expression heavy with the same unwillingness to let this slide. With a gloomy smile, she said through gritted teeth, “I’ll wait.”

When her voice fell, she had already been teleported away by the altar.

Whoosh!

Lin Xun leapt onto the altar without further delay.

Find the original at bit.ly/3iBfjkV.

Then, his vision blurred, and he lost all senses.

A day later.

The Holy Worship Altars in the three thousand Enlightenment Grounds fell into silence, looking ancient and mottled with no more dao light flowing around them.

“The reception is over,” whispered a powerful expert.

“In the next ten years, it’s all up to their luck,” a Saint sighed.

Hearing this, the cultivators who were hurriedly rushing toward the altar acted as if they were struck by lightning. Some pounded their chests, some screamed in discontent, and some sobbed.

Some seemed unable to withstand reality and started bawling their eyes out.

They had been only one step away from entering the Supreme Realm. This blow was so heavy that these cultivators’ minds were on the verge of collapse.

This was normal on the path of cultivation.

What appeared to be a missed opportunity was in fact a chance to possibly change their entire life!

……

In an expansive mountain range with densely packed ancient trees, the air was abundant with aeth qi to the point it felt moist. The scene was primitive and ancient.

The strange thing was that the grass, the trees, and the entire mountains all displayed a fiery red color like that of the sun at dawn.

Even the soil was of a bright, blood-like color.

Looking around, it was like a burning world where the mountains were like fire, and the sky and the earth were scarlet.

Whoosh!

Someone strode through the mountains, his figure tall and his moon white clothes contrasting with his black hair as they fluttered in the wind.

It was none other than Lin Xun.

“The power of the great dao is clear and surging. It would be three times faster to comprehend the great dao here than in the outside world!

“Aeth qi in the air is also much denser than the outside world, even the dewdrops on the blades of grass store such an abundance of spirituality that they can be called spirit dew! If one were to cultivate here, they would improve by leaps and bounds even without the aid of aeth essence.

“The atmosphere, the mountains, and rivers are all blessed with spirituality, giving birth to spiritual resources and precious herbs that the outside world has never heard of or seen before… This place is too rich, it’s basically a treasure land birthed naturally by the heavens and earth!”

Lin Xun was carefully observing.

The Chaofeng Eye allowed him to clearly see through all of the mysteries in the mountains, rivers, and lakes.

Lin Xun didn’t panic or hesitate after being teleported to this world. He immediately took action and used his best power to sense everything he came across, making deductions and comparisons.

In the end, he had to admit that the Supreme Realm was indeed divine and transcendent. It was like a holy land, a legendary kingdom of the gods.

The power of the great dao between the heaven and earth of this world, the spirit and vitality latent in the mountains and rivers were far above from what the outside world could compare.

It was not an exaggeration to say that one could casually find any place to meditate here and it would still rival the effect of cultivating in a heavenly paradise in the outside world!

And this was only the conclusion through his initial observations. If he continued to explore deeper, he was bound to uncover unexpected rewards.

Hmm?

A lonely mountain peak in the distance suddenly caught Lin Xun’s attention.

On one side of the peak, a waterfall cascaded down, emitting sounds of rumbling and water splashing.

On the cliff wall within the waterfall, there was a beautiful, illusory light that flickered behind the curtain of water.

Under the focused gaze of Lin Xun’s Chaofeng’s Eye, the illusory light could not be clearer as its every detail was reflected in his vision.

It was a flaming aeth flower swaying in the cracks of the cliff. The flower was charming and delicate, and its color was like a burning blood-colored full moon.
