The Prodigies War-Novel

When Lin Xun nocked the Biluo Arrow onto the No-Nonsense Bow and pulled back, all of the energy in his body frantically rushed toward the bow and arrow like water being sucked in by a whale.

Lin Xun felt as if he was instantly sucked dry.

Although his cultivation at the Heaven Ascension stage, his strength and power were so overwhelming that even Cyclic Derivation experts would pale in comparison.

Despite this, merely drawing the bow had sucked him dry, a situation that downright terrified him.

However, the arrow was already nocked, so how could he stop now?

Lin Xun gritted his teeth and desperately tried to hold on. Just as he was about to collapse, he was finally able to pull the No-Nonsense Bow fully back!

Beng!

When the Biluo Arrow was released, a faint howling sound that almost resembled the sound of the dao rang out as a terrifying image of the milky way and everything else disintegrating appeared.

Around the bow, the astonishing scene of a mighty sun falling as a golden crow cried blood appeared.

The nearby ground, space, rocks…instantly disintegrated, turning into a maelstrom of berserk and chaotic energy that seemed intent on dragging everything into the void to be completely destroyed.

The scene was far too terrifying.

A single arrow seemed to have taken over the entire space!

……

Shit!

Man Jiu's scalp nearly exploded in alarm as he instinctively turned and ran. He frantically fled like a shadow, crossing tens of thousands of feet in a flash. It was a display of unbelievable speed.

If a Brute King was watching, even he would be amazed at the unrivaled speed of the Darkness Brute Tribe.

There was no doubt that Man Jiu had thrown everything he had into escaping.

Despite being a Half-Step King expert and an elder that had come close to danger and death countless times over the years, this was the first time Man Jiu felt such fatal danger.

It was too terrifying!

It made his spirit and heart shiver uncontrollably. He could not believe that such terrifying power could exist in this world.

Man Jiu had never experienced such fear and terror even when facing a true King expert.

Run!

Just moments ago, he had been filled with desire toward the No-Nonsense Bow and had been determined to obtain it. Now, however, he wanted nothing but to run as far away as possible!

“That bow and arrow are simply terrifying. Could they have originally been a set?”

“He must be killed. He absolutely cannot be allowed to live!”

“That bow and arrow especially must not fall into the hands of the empire cultivators!”

Various thoughts rapidly swirled in Man Jiu’s head.

However, he suddenly felt something was wrong. The scenery before his eyes began to darken as he heard a terrifying explosion.

Boom!

Something seemed to have exploded, filling his vision with blood-colored light.

His many years of fighting experience allowed Man Jiu to immediately realize that it was a body being blown apart.

However…

Why does it feel so wrong?

Indescribable pain suddenly surged into his mind. Man Jiu finally realized that everything he sensed had happened to him.

His body had been blown apart!

A feeling of indescribable sorrow suddenly filled him.

How did this happen? Why has death come so unexpectedly?

It was an outcome that Man Jiu never anticipated!

From start to end, he had not been able to react, sense, or even feel anything even until death suddenly arrived!

“Is this the power of an Ultima Saint Weapon…” With his last bit of consciousness, Man Jiu finally saw the arrow.

It was black as the night, simple, and unremarkable. It disappeared a split second later, making it appear all the more mysterious and inconceivable…

……

Everything had happened far too quickly.

In the distance, the Enlightened Spirit experts were still menacingly rushing toward Lin Xun, their expressions filled with excitement and murder.

Meanwhile, squad after squad of Brute elites was swiftly closing in like a giant net, confident that they had finally caught their prey.

However, when Lin Xun shot the Biluo Arrow, time seemed to come to a standstill as everyone was overwhelmed by a terrifying dao rumbling.

Next, they were forced to witness a scene that they would never forget until their deaths―

An arrow shot through the air, instantly closing in on Half-Step King Man Jiu and killing him!

It was merely a single arrow!

Feng Kun, Jin Wu, the other Enlightened Spirit experts, and the nearby Brute elites were dumbstruck as their minds went blank.

That was Man Jiu!

He was a dreadful existence who was a step into the Brute King stage and was considered an apex expert in the Brute Tribes.

However, even he could not block the arrow!

His body was instantly blown apart, dyeing the air red. It was such a miserable death that it would make anyone feel hopeless.

“How can this be…”

“What a terrifying arrow!”

“No!”

A long time passed before the silent and stifling atmosphere was replaced by a thunderous uproar. Every Brute expert’s face was filled with horror, confusion, grief, and disbelief.

The Enlightened Spirit experts were no exception. Their expression fluctuated indeterminately as their hearts and bodies trembled uncontrollably.

That was a Half-Step King!

He was also a pinnacle existence among the Darkness Brute Tribe’s older generation, but he had been slaughtered just like that?

It was an overly shocking scene that would traumatize anyone.

After all, who could have imagined that the killer would be a mere Heaven Ascension human youngster wielding a single bow and arrow?

Fear rapidly flooded the area, causing everyone’s gazes to become deeply afraid when they looked at Lin Xun.

This was a youngster who had single-handedly awed and intimidated the experts in Tiger Canyon with a white bone bow and successfully saved a group of empire cultivators.

The same youngster had suddenly returned to Tiger Canyon and killed many Brute experts, leaving the place a bloody mess.

Now, he had even killed Half-Step King Man Jiu while everyone was watching!

Under these circumstances, who could remain calm or unafraid?

In the Brute experts’ hearts, Lin Xun had become a young demon god who would make anyone’s heart shiver in terror.

“Everyone, don’t panic!”

A loud shout suddenly rang out. It was Feng Kun. He had noticed that their fighting spirit and morale were rapidly falling which was anything but good.

“That arrow earlier must have drained all of his power. He must be on his last legs and should be on the verge of collapsing!”

Feng Kun’s voice thundered across the canyon, “See, he doesn’t even have the strength to escape now!”

Numerous Brute experts immediately returned to their senses. Sure enough, they realized that the youngster was still standing there with a pale face. At closer inspection, even his hands were shaking a little.

If he still had enough energy, why would he miss such an excellent chance to flee?

After realizing this, the fear in Enlightened Spirit experts’ hearts diminished substantially as they murderously glared at Lin Xun.

He can’t be allowed to live!

If they didn’t take advantage of this opportunity to kill him, it was likely that a Brute King would have to be dispatched to Blood Kill Battlefield just to capture or kill him in the future.

Most importantly, the bow and arrow were far too irrational and terrifying. It would be a disaster for the Brute Tribes if they did not seize these items from the human side.

The atmosphere had already changed!

Lin Xun sensed this as well. He had already anticipated that although his attack might be able to intimidate the enemies, once they paid a little attention, they would discover that his tank was nearly empty.

This was why Lin Xun had remained there and not chosen to escape.

There was nothing else he could do. All of his energy had been sucked dry by the arrow, and he no longer possessed the ability to escape.

It could be said that his situation had already deteriorated to the worst possible state.

Despite this, Lin Xun remained calm and collected on the surface. In response to the suspicious and murderous gazes directed at him, his lips parted slightly as he spat out two words, “Arrow come!”

His tone was calm, but gave off an unquestionable authority. A black flash suddenly arrived from far away and hovered above Lin Xun’s hand.

It was the Biluo Arrow. It was still as black as the eternal night and its tip glowed a faint dark red. It looked no different than before.

However, the pressure spreading from the arrow caused ripples to form in the air.

Everyone’s expressions immediately changed.

The Enlightened Spirit experts’ pupils shrank as wariness and bewilderment were revealed in their eyes.

Did he still have the strength to fight again?

The place fell silent again because the Brute experts had been intimidated by the new development. Everyone had witnessed the Biluo Arrow’s power that even a Half-Step King had failed to escape from. Who would dare to be the first to confirm their suspicions?

The power of the arrow vividly manifested itself at this moment!

Despite their fears, none of the Brute experts retreated. They were clearly waiting to confirm if Lin Xun was indeed on his last legs.

“Are the Brutes cowards? Does no one have the courage to even step forward and fight?”

Lin Xun laughed. Although it wasn’t loud, the noise made the Brute expert's faces immediately turn ugly.

“Hmph! If you still have the strength to fight again, why are you just standing there?” Feng Kun icily snorted.

“Or perhaps you’re trying to put on a strong front and can’t hold on for much longer?”

Lin Xun casually replied, “Why talk so much? Come and try me if you dare.”

Feng Kun’s eyes narrowed before he suddenly commanded the nearby Brute guards, “Go and kill him. There’s no need to be nervous because he’s merely putting on a tough act.”

The Brute guards’ expressions changed as they inwardly cursed. They had already lost their courage and had no desire to test Lin Xun because the consequences were too horrible to imagine.

However, they could not go against their commands either and could only steel themselves and grit their teeth before charging at Lin Xun.

Plop plop plop!

However, before they could approach, small black specks suddenly flew out from Lin Xun’s fingertips and disappeared into the Brute guards’ bodies.

The guards screamed in agony and crashed to the ground. It was clear that they no longer had any life force and even their spirits had disappeared.

God Devourer Insects!

The bizarre ancient era insects he had sealed in his mind-sea were finally able to show their usefulness.

Hss!

Gasps sounded all around as the Brute experts panicked again. The result undoubtedly showed that the youngster wasn’t putting up a strong front, but did have the strength to continue fighting!
