The Prodigies War

Recently, ancient-era eccentric geniuses frequently showed up in the world, exhibited their powers, and outshone the talented geniuses of the world.

To this day, no one had defeated an ancient-era eccentric genius or been able to escape the fate of being dominated by them!

But today, Demon God Lin, who had been silent for over two months, suddenly reappeared and overwhelmingly defeated Jin Xiaoming, an ancient-era eccentric genius of the Golden King Snake Clan. This had extraordinary significance.

If word spread, then Demon God Lin would be crowned with the title of the first person to suppress an ancient-era eccentric genius and become the center of attention!

All over the mountain, everyone was stirred up, unable to compose themselves. But all eyes had a glimmer of awe and admiration.

The insufferably arrogant Jin Xiaoming had been defeated. This fact would amaze anyone.

“Hmph, the limelight has been stolen.” Toady sighed, face clouding with disappointment and frustration.

A’lu clapped him on the shoulder, sympathizing with him like they were sufferers of the same predicament. “It’s fine; there will be many more opportunities in the future.”

Meanwhile, Jin Xiaoming was still limp on the ground, covered with blood and wounds.

However, his face was devoid of fear, anger, or bitterness. Instead, it was terrifyingly calm and cold.

“I admit that I had underestimated you, but I am just a doppelganger of my real body. If my true self comes, then it’s hard to say who will win,” Jin Xiaoming remarked casually.

Doppelganger!

Everyone was taken aback. The expressions of Qi Chongdou and the others also changed.

How can a doppelganger be so powerful?

If what Jin Xiaoming said was true, then it was frightening!

Lin Xun was struck by a flash of realization, quickly followed by surprise as he stated, “No wonder you’re so weak. But if the doppelganger is so weak then the real body can’t be much stronger.”

His tone of voice was indifferent, but it felt completely different when it reached the ears of everyone. It was filled with boldness, domineeringness and savageness.

Jin Xiaoming was so furious that he almost coughed up blood. He thought that Lin Xun would be fearful of him, but he never thought that he would react in this way.

He still thought he was too weak and did not take him seriously!

This was undoubtedly contempt, and it was very blatant and savage!

“I heard that snake meat is very nourishing for the body. They can be made into snake stew, which is one of the delicacies in the world. That sounds delicious.” Lin Xun looked Jin Xiaoming up and down like he was a rare ingredient in the world.

Jin Xiaoming felt chills. His pupils shrank, and he completely lost his composure. This guy…

This guy actually wants to eat me?!

He was a little flabbergasted. He was an ancient-era eccentric genius, but he was being treated as food. This was a huge blow to his pride!

Everyone else’s expressions changed strangely. The rumors are true. Demon God Lin is not only fearless, but also has an unbelievable appetite.

He actually wants to devour the doppelganger of an ancient-era eccentric genius!

Who would believe that?

“You’d better not try anything. If my doppelganger is damaged in the slightest, then my real body will come and kill you right away,” Jin Xiaoming threatened, face purple with rage.

“Will your main body come too? That’s great! I can stew the real body and the doppelganger in the same pot then,” Lin Xun exclaimed.

“You...” Jin Xiaoming almost broke down. This was the first time he saw such an unyielding and horribly powerful character.

After drawing a deep breath, he said each word loud and clear, “Do you know that if you anger me, you will also offend the Golden King Snake Clan? Also, some of the ancient-era eccentric geniuses who I have good ties with also won’t let you off!”

“Quiet!”

A slap from Lin Xun made him cough up blood and broke several of his teeth. “No one, not even the ancient-era eccentric geniuses, can save you.”

Many cultivators trembled inwardly. Is Demon God Lin declaring war?

The world had been waiting anxiously for a long time, looking forward to the moment when peerless figures such as Yun Qingbai, Wang Xuanyu, Mi Hengzhen, Ye Mohe, Yan Zhanqiu and Lin Xun would take action!

This was because the ancient-era eccentric geniuses had been roaming the world recently and making a clean sweep of the younger generation of talents. It left many with feelings of bitterness and resentment, and they couldn’t lift their heads after that.

They hoped to see ancient-era eccentric geniuses tragically defeated!

“Lin Xun, you likely are unaware of how strong ancient-era eccentric geniuses are. Our foundation and background are beyond what you can imagine, far superior to those of the current generation of geniuses. There are numerous of us who have set foot into the pinnacle realm of the Supreme Path. Many are even Chosens and aeth embryos!” Jin Xiaoming spoke in a gruff voice. “If you choose to be our enemy, then you likely won’t be able to bear the consequences!”

Lin Xun sneered, “Do you think you can represent all the ancient-era eccentric geniuses in the world? You’d better shut up. Threats have no use. If you aggravate me, I have no qualms about making you into a stew.”

Jin Xiaoming’s face clouded over. He knew that, although Lin Xun spoke casually, he dared to keep to his words!

In truth, Jin Xiaoming’s threats set off waves in many cultivators’ hearts.

There are numerous who have reached the pinnacle of the Supreme Path?!

If this is true, then the overall strength of ancient-era eccentric geniuses is more than terrifying.

“I’m just reminding you that some truly terrifying characters have yet to take action. Even if you are the most elite talent of your generation, you are still no match for them when the great age comes.”

Jin Xiaoming had clearly curbed his attitude, but his voice still carried a hint of threat.

But to his disappointment, Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged like he did not care.

Is that guy really a fearless demon god?

Jin Xiaoming was a little upset.

However, the cultivators present were certain of one thing—Demon God Lin who emerged after months of silence was not the least bit afraid of the so-called ancient-era eccentric geniuses!

They even felt that Lin Xun looked forward to a battle with the strongest among the ancient-clan eccentric geniuses!

This was not because Lin Xun was arrogant. Instead, he had developed the courage and confidence that made him fear no one. Only when someone became as powerful as him would they feel that way.

Lin Xun even dared to assert that anyone who had reached his level would be unafraid of any battle, nor would they be affected by some threats.

For example Mi Hengzhen had accepted the challenge from Bai Longting, an ancient-era eccentric genius, a few hours ago. He also had to have such courage and confidence. Otherwise, as the host, he would not have accepted the challenge while the gathering was still taking place.

As for Jin Xiaoming, although he was also an ancient-era eccentric genius, his courage and boldness were lacking. After being defeated, he was trying to threaten Lin Xun, hoping to use the name and reputation of others to scare his opponent.

This was enough to prove that, in Jin Xiaoming’s heart, he was not confident of winning against Lin Xun even if his real body came!

Soon, the buzzing atmosphere returned on Thousand Streams Mountain. With a cup of tea instead of wine in hand, everyone chatted and discussed the dao with one another.

Lin Xun, Toady, and A’lu became the focus of the gathering. Many cultivators crowded around them like stars surrounded the moon.

As for Jin Xiaoming, he was still imprisoned on the ground and completely ignored.

Someone said anxiously, “It’s been so long, why hasn’t Fellow Cultivator Hengzhen returned? Could he be...”

Mi Hengzhen was the host of the gathering, but he had gone to face off against Bai Longting and still hadn’t returned. How could the guest not be worried?

“Where is your main body? Why hasn’t it come yet? I’m still waiting to make you both into a stew.” Lin Xun looked at Jin Xiaoming.

Jin Xiaoming’s face had become pale, but he snorted coldly, “I’ll tell you that my real body is now at Ten Miles Slope, watching the showdown between Mi Hengzhen and Bai Longting. If you have guts then you go there by yourself!”

Ten Miles Slope!

This was indeed the location where Mi Hengzhen and Bai Longting were dueling. However, no one thought that Jin Xiaoming’s real body would also be at Ten Miles Slope!

It was obvious that, when his doppelganger came to Thousand Streams Mountain, he had already known that Mi Hengzhen was not around, and perhaps that was the reason he dared to come looking for trouble.

“Where is Ten Miles Slope?” Lin Xun asked Qi Chongdou.

“Around sixteen thousand miles away.” As Qi Chongdou answered, he realized something and asked, “Brother Lin, are you going there?”

“There’s no harm in taking a look.”

Lin Xun decided. Mi Hengzhen was one of the most amazing figures of his generation, and his name was known throughout the world.

Bai Longting was also a dazzling figure among the ancient-era eccentric geniuses, so the showdown between the two piqued the interest of even Lin Xun.

However, just when Lin Xun was about to set off, an ancient battleship was speeding their way. The sun and moon patterns all over the ship glowed a brilliant color and the mass of clouds parted for the ship.

“That’s the battleship of the Moon Sun Sacred Palace. Senior Brother Mi Hengzhen is back!” Qi Chongdou perked up and his eyes lit up

At the same time, everyone also noticed the majestic and imposing figure standing atop the battleship, bathed in the sun and moonlight. His elegant bearing surpassed that of anyone present.

Everyone looked closer to see a young man clad in a wide-sleeved robe with a wide belt. He had a handsome and elegant appearance, thick eyebrows, a smooth forehead and a dragon-like presence.

Some people were extraordinary and unique just based on their appearance.

Just like Mi Hengzhen!

However, before everyone could cheer at his entrance, a streak of green divine arc ripped through the void, approaching the battleship with astonishing speed.

At the same time, Jin Xiaoming, who was imprisoned on the ground, perked up and his green eyes were alight with joy.

Everyone noticed that the green divine arc was being controlled by a young man of an exact likeness to Jin Xiaoming.

He was no doubt the real body of Jin Xiaoming!

“Fellow Cultivator, you have been following me all the way here. Do you also want to challenge me to a duel like Bai Longting did?” The battleship screeched to an abrupt halt while Mi Hengzhen turned around to see Jin Xiaoming rushing his way.

“Hmph! You’re overthinking. My doppelganger is trapped on Thousand Streams Mountain. I came here to see who dared to do that!” The real Jin Xiaoming snorted, his voice quaking the world like a thunderclap.

Mi Hengzhen’s eyes widened a little with surprise and then he asked with curiosity, “Is there someone who can suppress your doppelganger on Thousand Streams Mountain? I want to meet such a talented person.”

Jin Xiaoming’s face darkened right away, sensing a hint of gloating within Mi Hengzhen’s words.

While they conversed, they had arrived just before Thousand Streams Mountain, and the real Jin Xiaoming thundered, “Who had bullied my doppelganger here? Come out now!”

His voice rumbled out, loaded with murderous intent.
