The Prodigies War

Chapter 1439: The Martial Contest Begins

According to the mysterious woman, the dark night of the Blood Kill Battlefield led to another plane.

And that plane was originally the body of a fallen Emperor!

Every acupuncture point and aperture formed a world, so this plane housed numerous different worlds.

It was no longer possible to figure out who this Emperor expert was and how long ago they had fallen.

But one thing was for certain, and that was they had been a stunning and extraordinary Emperor. Even the mysterious woman could only sing praises of this supreme figure.

Lin Xun had also learned something new, that the body and mind, heaven and earth was the mark of an Emperor!

Just imagine, a cultivator whose body was an universe, and their acupuncture points, five viscera, six bowels, limbs and bonewere galaxies and worlds. This concept was simply horrifying.

Such was the Emperor stage!

The thought that he was standing in an inconspicuous acupuncture point of an Emperor caused Lin Xuns heart and soul to tremble.

And at the thought that what he had killed in the past six months was just a trace of this Emperors killing intent after they had fallen, that had been eroded after countless years, Lin Xun found it impossible to calm down.

Just how terrifying would a living Emperor be?

Lin Xun thought of Sword Emperor Taixuan, Battle Emperor Mo Yang, Saint Buddha Xingjia, and many other supreme figures from the primeval era, as well as the Star Annihilation Battle Emperor, who was most likely his uncle

Then, he abruptly turned his gaze to the mysterious woman. A strange emotion flashed in his expression. Senior, do you also

The mysterious woman, as if already anticipating what Lin Xun wanted to ask, interrupted him, Before, yes, but nowI cant tell myself

There was a hint of frustration in her voice.

She had already been thinking about this problem for a very long time!

Ever since she had become the gatekeeper of the Omega Secret-Realm, she could no longer tell who she was and what level of cultivation she possessed.

It was as if she had lost some extremely important memories.

She had tried to look for clues of her past, but so far she had found nothing.

Moreover, in the countless years being the gatekeeper, she had never forgotten a single thing.

But she just knew that her most precious memories were missing.

She was also well aware that if she could retrieve those memories, she might understand why she had become the gatekeeper of the Omega Secret-Realm and had stayed in this duty for endless years.

Lin Xun was also dumbfounded. This was his first time seeing a person who didnt even know the level of their own cultivation.

This sounded absurd.

But his intuition told him that the mysterious woman was the kind of person who wouldnt bother to lie, for the simple reason that there was no need at all.

Soon, this place will completely become a force of origin, and the night world of the Blood Kill Battlefield will cease to exist. This is all because a great opportunity will soon come.

Saying this, the mysterious woman led Lin Xun away.

Yuncang Mountain.

During the entire way back to his stone abode, Lin Xun still felt like he was in a dream.

While recalling every scene from the ordeal that had lasted for over eight months in the darkness, he fell into a trance.

Who would even dare to imagine that the dark night that was regarded as the underworld in the Blood Kill Battlefield was the corpse of an Emperor?

Lin Xun only gradually regained his composure after a long time later.

Regardless of anything else, the training had improved his physical cultivation by leaps and bounds and eliminated all the deficiencies in his dao!

My qi refinement and spirit cultivation are at the eighth longevity stage, while my physical refinement has now reached the seventh longevity stage. The arrival of the Taboo Dao Tribulation is getting closer and closer Lin Xuns eyes gleamed.

The Taboo Dao Tribulation was like a heavenly rift separating him from the Saint stage that constantly weighed on his heart. Whenever Lin Xun thought of it, he felt an indescribable sense of urgency.

He had a vague premonition that when his physical, qi, and spirit cultivations all broke through to the peak of the ninth longevity stage, this great calamity would also descend!

After participating in the Dao Observation Mountain Contest, I must head to the Mulberry Woodland. Only that place may hold the opportunity for me to break the Taboo Dao Tribulation

Lin Xun took a deep breath as he made a decision.

Theres only less than half a month left until the Dao Observation Mountain Contest. Has Lin Xun still not come out from seclusion?

Lately, the number of similar discussions had gradually risen in the empires camp.

The triennial Dao Observation Mountain Contest would kick off in half a month, and at that time, there would be a showdown between the Ziyao Camp and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races.

The final winner would be able to set foot on the Dao Observation Mountain and see the engraved marks of the great dao!

The list has been finalized, Lin Xun is definitely going to participate in the battle. This time, perhaps our empire will be able to wash away our past shame and win this contest!

Some people looked forward to it.

Alas, dont be too optimistic. Although we have experts like Lin Xun and Li Duxing on our side, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races also have the peerless top ten experts on their battle rankings.

Comparing the number of top experts, we are at a clear disadvantage.

Many frowned in worry.

At that moment, Zhao Xingye went to find Lin Xun. All prepared?

Lin Xun replied with a smile, Ready to go at any time.

Seeing his composed demeanor, Zhao Xingye chuckled, Then Im looking forward to a surprise from you.

Lin Xun thought a little and couldnt help but say, Im just worried about one thing right now.

Zhao Xingyes heart tightened. Its already time, and this fellow still doesnt have absolute certainty of winning?

She raised an eyebrow and asked, Worried about what? Tell me about it, and Ill do my best to solve it for you.

Lin Xun hurriedly said, Uh, you misunderstood, Senior. Im just worried that my opponents wont be able to put up a befitting performance

Zhao Xingye was stunned for a moment before a smile bloomed on her strikingly charming face. At the end, she couldnt help but laugh out loud, Thats the most arrogant thing Ive heard in all these years, but of course, its also very refreshing to hear.

Arrogant?

Lin Xun just smiled and didnt explain.

It wasnt like he could just say that his only purpose of entering the Blood Kill Battlefield was the Mulberry Woodland.

That was a region of chaos origin where Saints, Big Saints, Saint-Kings, and even Quasi-Emperors could be present!

As for the contest with the other two camps, to be honest, Lin Xun didnt really care much about it.

Of course, he couldnt just say this out loud, or else Zhao Xingye would think that he had gotten carried away

Early morning, two days later.

Lin Xun, Li Duxing, Song Wuque, Shi Yu, Gong Ming, and the other five top rankers of the empires camp boarded a treasure ship.

Brother Lin, well be waiting for your triumphant return!

Fellow Daoist Li, be sure to help us vent some anger.

You must win!

All the experts in the camp had gathered to see the ten off.

Ning Meng, Ye Xiaoqi, and the others were among them. Although they werent weak, their strength was slightly inferior to the top ten and therefore their chance to take part in the Dao Observation Mountain Contest had slipped away.nove(l)bi(n.)com

This made them feel quite regretful.

Lin Xun, make sure to burst their balls! shouted Ning Meng.

The entire field burst out laughing, and some women blushed and complained.

Ye Xiaoqi, on the other hand, was a bit worried and said to Lin Xun and Shi Yu, No matter what, just do your best.

Shi Yu rolled his eyes and angrily scolded, We are setting out soon and youre still saying such disheartening things. When I come back, Ill definitely give this fatty a good beating.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun only smiled and waved his hand goodbye.

Lets go. Zhao Xingye sailed the treasure ship through the air and carried the group away.

This time, we and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races will both send out ten experts. The rules of the contest are simple: Draw lots to determine the order of appearance and fight the other sides experts one by one, either defeating or killing them.

The winner can continue the challenge, or can choose to withdraw and rest. In short, the contest will only conclude when all the opponents are defeated.

On the treasure ship, Zhao Xingye explained the rules in a concise manner.

In the previous contests, our empire lost more than it had won. No, technically speaking, we have only won once, all while losing thirty-four top experts!

At the mention of this matter, Zhao Xingyes face clouded with deep hatred.

Theywere the pillars of our empire. Each of them was a one-in-a-million supreme figure who had hopes of stepping into the Saint stage.

But they all lost their lives in the contest!

They died for our empire. Their deaths must be avenged!

Everyone on the ship revealed a resolute expression. Many grieved as they remembered their companions who had passed away in the past contests that were, in reality, life and death battles!

The lucky ones would be seriously injured and were able to leave with their lives.

However, this luck only went to a minority after all. The enemy would seize any chance to kill their opponents!

Such was the Dao Observation Mountains contest: bloody and merciless.

All the three camps, in order to destroy the top figures of their opposing forces, would spare no effort and resort to any means possible!

Lin Xun had only just come to the Blood Kill Battlefield for about two years, and had never participated in the Dao Observation Mountain Contest, but when he heard about this, his heart also felt indescribably stifled.

Remember, go all out in the contest! exhorted Zhao Xingye.

Everyone nodded.

They didnt know if their empire would be able to turn around its downward trend and win this contest, but they would go all out!

Half a day later.

On the horizon, a lofty mountain shaped like an inverted bell appeared into view.

The mountain was bare and jagged, with strange piles of rocks, but there was neither a single blade of grass to be found nor rich aeth qi in its atmosphere.

However, just looking at it gave people an unspeakably oppressive feeling.

That was the Dao Observation Mountain!

Every three years, atop the cliffside of this mountain, several divine and profound engravings of the great dao would emerge.

Every three years at this place, a contest would unfold between the three camps, erupting into a bloody and brutal fight.

Many experts of the Ziyao Empire had perished regretfully here at the hands of the enemies!

Looking at the distant mountain, Lin Xun exhaled a long breath, his expression calm.

This time, with him participating in the contest, the outcome was destined to be rewritten!
