The Prodigies War

Chapter 1083 Settling the Score

Chapter 1083 Settling the Score

How powerful was the King stage?

One would know the answer from the moment a King made their move. Any casual strike carried the might that could shatter the heavens and crush the earth.

At this moment, attacking Lin Xun were eight Kings, and several of them had set foot on the path of longevity!

The most frightening thing was that, vigilantly, they did not hold back at all!

Clearly, Lin Xun’s saint treasure and King-level forbidden array were enough to threaten even King-stage experts!

Boom!

The air around the lonely island was twisted by loud, blinding lights. Supreme secret techniques manifested divine radiance and enacted terrifying phenomena that came crashing down on Lin Xun, not lacking the company of murderous, gleaming halberds, spears, copper lamps, and spirit swords.

Even a King-stage expert would despair if they had to face this sky-blotting rain of attacks.

But Lin Xun was composed as ever.

He stood tall on a rock, his clothes fluttering. His black eyes were filled with a bone-chilling glint as he watched the attacks coming from all directions.

From the beginning to the end, his figure remained motionless.

Only, the seawater around the lonely island surged like wisps of starlight, painting a dream-like scene.

At the same time, on the edge of a three-thousand-mile radius around the lonely island, obscure restriction fluctuations started to appear on the silvery water. They then rose up and built a starry wall that connected the sea and the sky.

When viewed from high above, it was like a grand prison that completely isolated the three-thousand-mile extent around the island from the outside world.

Bang!

A violet haze of lightning heading toward the isolated island was blocked by a strand of starlight that emerged from the sea. Then, the haze burst into nothingness.

Hou Tianzhong’s pupils shrunk, and his expression twitched.

He had accumulated momentum for quite a long time, storing enough power in the violet haze to incinerate mountains and boil the sea.

Yet it was smashed in an instant, unable to even approach the isolated island!

Bang!

In the distance, a golden sword whimpered as a wisp of starlight coiled around it and drilled holes in its blade. The sword then plopped into the sea like a dead snake.

Liu Jiankun stiffened. His blood boiled as shock and disbelief flashed in his eyes.

The sword was a Supreme King Weapon, yet it was destroyed just like that!

Bang bang bang!

Simultaneously, the other dao arts and treasures of the King-stage old monsters were stopped by starry clouds as they approached the lonely island. They collapsed one after another in thunderous roars, producing aftershocks that shook the area.

From afar, it looked like a display of fireworks around the lonely island, blooming brightly before fizzling into nothingness.

Lin Xun just stood there and watched as it all happened with a terrifying calmness!

Hou Tianzhong, Liu Jiankun, Gou Yangyuan, and the rest of the King monsters were astonished. Their eyes flickered when they realized that the lonely island had been shielded by restriction power.

Fortunately, they had been on guard and had not personally descended on the lonely island, guessing that Lin Xun had dared to wait here because he had laid down the King-level forbidden array in advance.

“So this is the forbidden array you robbed from the Blue Luan Clan? No wonder you are so daring. However…” Hou Tianzhong sneered with contempt. “Do you think that we came here without taking this into consideration?”

The other Kings all regained their composure and looked at Lin Xun coldly.

They certainly had expected this.

Lin Xun acted as if he hadn’t heard these words. His gaze swept over them one by one before he finally said calmly, “It seems that the first batch is just the few of you.”

Then, he pointed at the silvery sea. “This is the grave that I have prepared for you all. To die and be buried in this place won’t be a taint to your fame.”

The group of Kings were appalled as they failed to believe their ears, almost thinking that they had heard wrong.

And then, their faces all sank, killing intent steaming between their brows. A young man of the Cyclic Derivation stage was but a puny ant. If it weren't for the saint treasure and King-level forbidden array in his hands, they would have long obliterated him an infinite number of times!

“As all of you have seen, this little guy thinks he can kill us all with this forbidden array. In that case, why don’t you give me the honor of breaking it so that he can learn a lesson?” said Hou Tianzhong icily.

The other Kings naturally had no objection.

Boom!

Hou Tianzhong held up a round, copper mirror flowing with light and shaped like a tortoise shell. As soon as it took off into the air, thousands of dense rune symbols vaporized from its surface, looking extremely miraculous.

Divination Spirit Plate!

Refined from the shell of the ancient white soft-shelled tortoise and containing a mysterious power within, it was an ancient treasure specializing in breaking formations. One only needed to operate it to pierce through any King-level forbidden array.

When the other Kings saw this, their hearts were greatly reassured as they knew full well the power of the Divination Spirit Plate.

“Break!” roared Hou Tianzhong imposingly, and his King-stage might burst forth.

The Divination Spirit Plate immediately emitted a buzzing sound. Thousands of rune symbols gushed out from it and surged towards the lonely island.

Rumble~

At the same time, dense starry mist rose up in front of the island, preparing to block the symbols.

The other Kings waited, preserving their energy to snatch the kill the moment the forbidden array was broken. Hou Tianzhong was the same as he secretly made preparations to attack.

But to their dismay, amidst the roaring collision, the Divination Spirit Plate lost its power. Instead of piercing through, it was enveloped by wisps of starlight.

And then, the divine ancient treasure exploded into small shards with a bang!

This…

Caught off guard, the group of Kings were appalled. How is this possible?

They knew Lin Xun’s King-level forbidden array came from the Blue Luan Clan and was called the Four Divisions King Array, and the power of the Divination Spirit Plate should have been enough to break it.

This turn of events was completely beyond their expectations!

“This is not the Four Divisions King Array!” exclaimed Hou Tianzhong, whose expression changed drastically when he seemed to sense something.

It was also at this moment that the calm Lin Xun suddenly erupted with a terrifying and boundless killing intent like a volcano that had been suppressed for infinite years!

His black eyes blossomed with lightning. No longer holding back, he rose up in the air as his cold gaze locked on Hou Tianzhong, his voice indifferent, “I said you would be the first to die.”

The moment these words dropped––

RUMBLE!

The sky collapsed, revealing densely-packed, dazzling stars that shed endless holy light.

The silent sea abruptly boiled and tumbled. Infinite starlight steamed in rolling mist, transforming into obscure restrictive power.

The scene was terrifying as if heaven had suddenly become hell. Shrouded in starlight, the sky and sea overturned, bursting with boundless restrictive forces.

“Slash!” Lin Xun drew a stroke with his finger.

The rolling starlight transformed into a blinding light blade that reflected the heavens and earth. Like a guillotine of grand dao, it chopped down.

“This…is the supreme restrictive power of Star Chess Sea!”

The terrified Hou Tianzhong looked like his soul had left his body. As early as when the shocking change occurred, his heart had already thumped with a bad premonition.

And upon seeing the guillotine-like blade slashing down upon him, he was scared out of his wits. Out of instinct, he resisted desperately with all the strength he had!

However, resistance was futile as the supreme slash put him to death with a poof. He instantly turned into ashes.

Even in his final moment, Hou Tianzhong could hardly believe that such a terrifying power had come from an ant of the Cyclic Derivation stage.

He could not accept it and could not comprehend it!

Unfortunately, he didn’t have time to think about it. The moment the slash turned his body to ashes, its brilliant aura also obliterated his primordial spirit!

One slash exterminated a King!

Shocked to the core, the rest of the King-stage monsters gasped collectively.

Like the blade of heaven, the slash had contained horrifying and boundless restrictive power, causing their hair to stand on end and chills to grow all over them.

At this moment, Lin Xun was glowing. The endless starlight dropping from the sky above covered him in exceptional brilliance. His aura overwhelmed the heavens and earth, making it impossible to look at him directly.

“He…he can control Star Chess Sea’s restrictive power! This…is a trap!” Gou Yangyuan instantly understood.

No wonder this brat is so fearless and composed even when surrounded by a group of Kings. He dug a trap in advance!

Gou Yangyuan immediately fled with an ashen face and a heart full of fear. Never in his wildest dreams had he expected something so unimaginable.

Having existed since the ancient era, the Star Chess Sea had always been a taboo area. Even Saints would be lost if they mistakenly entered it.

But today, it was controlled by a young man at the Cyclic Derivation stage!

The more Gou Yangyuan thought about it, the more horrified he became.

“Your grave is prepared, why do you want to leave? Stay!”

Lin Xun’s indifferent and ruthless voice suddenly resounded in his ears. Gou Yangyuan was startled and furious. As a longevity tribulation King, being looked down upon by a junior in this manner was undoubtedly an immense humiliation.

Unable to resist the urge to retort, he turned around, and then his pupils violently dilated as a shiny, huge blade was already looming in his field of vision!

Poof!

Gou Yangyuan couldn’t even put up any resistance when he was hacked to his death. His body turned into ashes and scattered over the sea.

Yet another King was exterminated!

The rest were dumbfounded. Their legs trembled, their mouths twitched, and their minds were on the verge of crumbling.

Gou Yangyuan and Hou Tianzhong were both King-stage old monsters that had risen to fame for a long time, but they had just been killed in the blink of an eye like some vulnerable chickens.

This cruel scene was too appalling!

“Run!”

The remaining Kings no longer dared to hesitate. They fled like a bunch of terrified stray dogs at a speed even faster than when they had come.

It was truly too frightening!

After seeing others who were Kings just like them be easily erased like that, who dared to hesitate?

Previously, they had been so high and mighty that they ignored Lin Xun as if he were prey, but now, each and every one of them was escaping in a sorry state, wishing that their parents had given them two more legs at birth.

If the cultivators waiting at the shore saw them like this, then they would be shocked out of their wits.

Lin Xun didn’t chase after them. The 3000-mile radius had long been blocked off from the world, so there was no way for them to escape.

And in this 3000 miles of sea, he was the master!

Even if a Saint came, he would not be afraid!

“Slash!”

Starry mist rose to the sky and formed a heavenly blade, filled with an awe-inspiring supremacy as it slashed down.

A thousand miles away, Liu Jiankun held up a cauldron to parry the blade. Consequently, the cauldron was chopped in half. Its owner let out a miserable scream before turning into ashes.

On this sea, Lin Xun had begun his quest to settle the score!
