The Prodigies War

In the King-level forbidden array, Lin Xun was wrapped in Suanni Qi which completely concealed his presence.

Omm~

In his hand, a small, thumb-sized bottle spurted out primordial-chaos-like light that rippled with peculiar undulations.

The restriction power fiercely surging at him from all directions was silently swallowed by the small bottle before it could get close.

It was the Dao Immeasurable Bottle!

Lin Xun had a peculiar expression. He was originally struck by a flash of inspiration to test it out and never imagined that the magical little bottle would be capable of storing the restriction power of the array!

He could clearly feel the attacking force, essence, and aura of the array being calmly sucked into the bottle.

"What an incredible artifact. It can not only swallow attacks and accumulate their power but is also capable of accommodating the power of an array. It's simply amazing..."

Lin Xun inwardly sighed in amazement. The Dao Immeasurable Bottle was the special reward obtained in the second trial and was an exceptionally unique artifact.

Even until now, Lin Xun had yet to unearth the full extent of its abilities.

Hmm?

Lin Xun suddenly noticed that as the bottle swallowed more and more power, strange cryptic runes began to emerge on its surface.

At the same time, the bottle started to become hotter and buzzed as if it was going to be filled soon.

However, when Lin Xun tried to control it with his spirit power, the bottle suddenly stopped shaking and stabilized as it gave off an azure glow.

Its suction power grew even stronger, devouring all of the restriction attacks as if it had infinite capacity.

Understanding dawned upon Lin Xun.

The Dao Immeasurable Bottle did not need to be controlled. On the contrary, spirit power was the key to releasing its power!

……

"Is he dead yet?"

Outside the King-level forbidden array, Sha Liuchan had become somewhat antsy, his forehead dotted with sweat. While the King-level forbidden array's power was terrifying, it was also very draining to control.

Of course, if there was a rune founder or King stage expert present, they would be more than capable of controlling it without much effort.

Although Sha Liuchan, Qing Lian'er, and the others were a few of the most outstanding individuals among the younger generation, they were still only Cyclic Derivation experts and were unable to sustain the array for prolonged periods.

"Nope."

Qing Lian’er's face had also become a little ugly. Her breathing was slightly ragged and her complexion quite pale, which were signs that she was beginning to tire as well.

"How did it come to this?"

Zhongli Wuji's expression was gloomy as a sense of foreboding rose within him.

Come on, this was a King-level forbidden array!

So why was it unable to kill a Cyclic Derivation youngster?

Sha Liuchan growled, "Qing Lian'er, are you scamming us? Why do I feel like my power is draining faster and faster?"

"Shut your trap! Do you think I’m as devious as Demon God Lin?" Qing Lian'er frowned, clearly displeased.

"Miss Lian'er, if this goes on, it won't take more than fifteen minutes for us to be completely exhausted!" Zhongli Wuji took a deep breath and tried to calm himself.

Qing Lian'er did not dare to guarantee anything at this juncture and ultimately gritted her teeth and said, "Hold on a little longer..."

Zhongli Wuji replied in a low voice, "We shall endure a little more then."

They had initially been ecstatic at the sight of Lin Xun being trapped, but all of them now wore ugly and uncertain expressions, stuck between a rock and hard place.

"It seems that the situation is taking a turn for the worse." Lightning seemed to flash in Lei Qianjun’s eyes.

Mu Jianting explained with a calm expression, "It’s actually rather simple to understand. The King-level forbidden array’s full power can only be brought out by a King stage expert or a rune founder. Zhongli Wuji and the others don’t have a deep understanding of runes, and their cultivation is far below the King stage. Hence, it is only natural for mistakes to occur. "

"What's more, don't forget that Demon God Lin possesses a Saint treasure. How can it be so easy to kill him?"

……

"What's going on?"

The experts watching from afar also realized that something was wrong. If they were to think about it logically, a King-level forbidden array should be more than capable of instantly deciding victory.

Hence, it was very unusual for there to be no result after so long.

"That King-level forbidden array can’t be a fake, right?"

Several experts voiced a certain suspicion. However, their words nearly made Qing Lian’er vomit blood. Fake? This was an ancient treasure made by an ancestor of the Blue Luan Clan and had been passed down through many generations!

Some experts began to banter, "It created such a big disturbance, but seemed to have ended up firing a blank...isn’t that a little embarrassing?"

Embarrassing?

Embarrassing my ass!

Sha Liuchan was so angry that he wanted to strangle someone. This wasn’t a show! They were genuinely trying to kill Demon God Lin!

"Hehe, so many supreme heaven prides, and they even set up a King-level forbidden array, yet they can’t deal with a single Demon God Lin? Hehe...heh..."

The sarcastic voice and shrill laughter were rich with ridicule.

All of a sudden, Zhongli Wuji snapped as murderous intent burst from his eyes.

Mu Jianting and Lei Qianjun also frowned. The situation was growing out of hand. If Demon God Lin somehow managed to escape, it would be extremely humiliating for all of them.

Mu Jianting inquired, "Do you guys need help?"

He naturally didn’t wish to see such a great opportunity go to waste. It was more than being disgraced because the revenge of Demon God Lin would be far more dire.

However, his words only made Zhongli Wuji and the others feel increasingly embarrassed and annoyed. Wasn’t he implying that they weren’t capable enough to handle this?

"No need, we can resolve it ourselves!" Zhongli Wuji and the others secretly swore to squeeze out every drop of power they had.

……

I’m reaching my limit.

Lin Xun observed that even while channeling his maximum spirit power, he was beginning to lose control of the Dao Immeasurable Bottle as it began to tremble again.

Rustle!

Lin Xun immediately put away the Dao Immeasurable Bottle and rose to his feet, deciding that this was the time to start breaking the array.

……

"He’s finally shown up!"

Sha Liuchan was drenched in sweat and panting. However, he quickly turned ecstatic at the sight of Lin Xun.

"Quickly, surround him with full power."

Zhongli Wuji and the others were also overjoyed that Lin Xun had appeared, believing that he was about to reach his limit and had no choice but to stop hiding.

Rumble!

The power of the King-level forbidden array became increasingly terrifying as light rumbled across the area.

Mu Jianting, Lei Qianjun, and the experts watching in the distance were the first to notice the change in the situation. It seemed as if the deciding moment would soon arrive.

In an instant, everyone’s hearts rose in their chests.

……

Even further away, a smile spread from the corners of Yu Lingkong's lips as said to Ji Xingyao in a low voice, "Watch carefully, the victor will soon be decided."

"A group of supreme heaven prides joined forces and are even employing a King-level forbidden array. There’s no honor even if they win, and the outside world will only laugh at them." Ji Xingyao wore a serene expression while her tone was as cold as snow.

Yu Lingkong merely smiled and said, "In the great dao struggle, no one can deny that connections and backgrounds are also a source of strength."

"However, you can only rely on yourself to truly rise above and attain the supreme King stage absolute peak king realm." Ji Xingyao clearly did not agree with Yu Lingkong's viewpoint.

"Miss Ji, you seem to be reluctant to see him die." Yu Lingkong frowned imperceptibly.

Ji Xingyao nonchalantly said, "If it were me, I would not use such a method to kill my enemy. In short, such a victory is unfair."

Yu Lingkong applauded. "Miss Ji has a great mindset."

However, Ji Xingyao's expression suddenly froze at this moment as astonishment flashed in her eyes

Being ignored by her made Yu Lingkong a little unhappy, but when he followed Ji Xingyao's gaze, he was also taken aback as a dreadful light began to shine from his eyes.

……

Boom!

The fluctuations of the King-level forbidden array became increasingly terrifying as if it was a chaotic furnace about to burn away everything in the world.

Zhongli Wuji and the others wore sinister expressions while inwardly excited. It was time to end it since Demon God Lin had appeared.

Mu Jianting and Lei Qianjun poised themselves to immediately rush in and seize the Saint treasure and blessings the moment Lin Xun was killed.

"Is Demon God Lin at the end of his rope?" The expressions of several experts fluctuated in uncertainty with mixed emotions.

"It’s already amazing that he managed to last so long in a King-level forbidden array. Even if he’s killed, this feat will definitely shake the West Infinity World."

"Eh? Is that?"

Many experts were soon astonished to discover that Lin Xun had appeared outside the still vigorously operating King-level forbidden array...

……

"Demon God Lin, you're finished!" Sha Liuchan laughed loudly despite panting heavily and on his last legs. He was feeling an unprecedented amount of joy and exhilaration.

Once Lin Xun was dead, all of the shame he had suffered would be washed away!

"Is that so?"

"Of course, if he survives, I'll happily chop off my head and give it to him as a gift!"

At this point, Sha Liuchan froze because he finally realized that something was wrong. He nearly jumped three feet in the air as his jaw dropped in shock. "You you you...when did you get out? "

"I I I...just came out." Lin Xun displayed a wide grin. He stood there with his hands behind his back, his body bathed in clear, dreamy light.

Sha Liuchan's expression immediately became very entertaining to look at. It contained dismay, anger, embarrassment, and indescribable panic.

He never imagined that Lin Xun would casually walk out of the King-level forbidden array.

"You!" In the distance, Zhongli Wuji, Qing Lian'er, and the others were also completely dumbfounded and felt like they were hallucinating.

It was just far too bizarre. That’s a King-level forbidden array! How can such a thing happen?

There weren’t the only ones. The watching experts in the distance were also stupefied. What the hell is going on?

Boom!

Lin Xun launched his assault without waiting for them to return to their senses. He rushed forth and appeared in front of the closest target, Sha Liuchan, as his fingers clenched into a fist and ruthlessly smashed downward like a divine mountain.

Bang!

Caught off guard, Sha Liuchan's body immediately caved inward as his bones abruptly snapped amidst an explosion of flesh and blood.
