The Prodigies War

Chapter 1283 Battle Sooner or Later

The next day, Chi Lingxiao and Holy Maiden Lin Xue said farewell and left.

Lin Xun resumed his training. The day before, he successfully passed the fourth longevity tribulation, the Seven Emotions Challenge, and ascended to the next cultivation level. As a result, his strength had been transformed once again.

This needed to be settled and stabilized.

Toady and the big black bird were observing and studying the ancient diagrams carved on the walls of the Three Thousand Stupa Tower.

Yun Qingbai had told them something true: Stupa Brahma Land might be riddled with dangers, but it concealed heaven-defying fortunes.

The Three Thousand Stupa Tower was created by a Saint Buddha in the ancient era, so its origin had to be extraordinary.

Ancient Buddha Son once lingered around to investigate the place. It was unknown whether or not he obtained any treasures before he met with disaster.

Yun Qingbai also trained here once and even disclosed that the treasures of the tower were concealed within the eighteen stone carvings on the eighteenth floor.

Regardless of whether this was true or not, there had to be a great secret within Three Thousand Stupa Tower!

……

As time went by, a piece of news about Yun Qingbai began to spread throughout the Upper Nine Realms, astonishing and bewildering anyone who heard it.

“When Demon God Lin was just a newborn, his innate talent power was forcibly taken, and the attacker was Yun Qingbai!”

A tossed stone raised thousands of ripples. It was unknown how many uproars this news caused.

Yun Qingbai only achieved what he has because of the innate talent power he stole from Demon God Lin! Who would have imagined?

“No wonder that someone said a long time ago that Demon God Lin has mastered a grand dao power very similar to that of Yun Qingbai. It turns out there is such a secret story behind this!”

Many cultivators’ hearts pounded.

An innate power allowed Yun Qingbai to make triumphant progress and advance unstoppably on the cultivation path, becoming the most outstanding figure in the Upper Nine Realms.

What kind of terrifying innate power was that?

“I never thought that a dazzling unparalleled swordsman such as Yun Qingbai would do something so despicable. If this matter is true, he should be detested!”

Some people were outraged.

“Nonsense! This is a slander against Yun Qingbai. The slanderer must have a malicious motive!”

But there were fiercer refutes and more people refusing to believe the news.

Yun Qingbai had made a name for himself long ago. Before he came to the Supreme Realm, he was already regarded as the number one sword cultivator of the younger generation in the Ancient Wasteland Domain and also the strongest below the king stage. His reputation was known to all and had a real impact on people.

But now, a stream of negative news came out. How would the experts who respected and admired him believe it?

This was slander!

“Shameless. Who spread the news? They trampled on Yun Qingbai’s reputation in order to raise Lin Xun’s status. How shameless is that?”

“Young Master Yun is a god-like being, so how would he be so despicable as rumored? The news is definitely fake!”

Women who deeply admired Yun Qingbai were about to explode with rage when they heard the news. It was an insult to Yun Qingbai, and they could not tolerate it.

“It’s ridiculous. If Lin Xun was stripped of his innate power, then how would he still be alive? How would he possess the strength he has today? Anyone with a brain should realize how absurd the news is!”

Endless discussions and uproars broke out all over the Upper Nine Realms.

After all, it was sensational news that involved two famous figures who could turn the world upside down. One was the unparalleled overlord who dominated the Genius Gold Rankings, and the other was the invincible Demon God Lin.

Any snippet of news about one of the two was enough to capture the attention of the world, let alone this sensational news that featured them both.

But on the whole, the majority of people did not believe it!

Their only option was to wait.

Meanwhile, in various areas across the Upper Nine Realms were cultivators from different sects and clans looking for and inquiring about Yun Qingbai’s whereabouts.

Everyone could not wait to know how Yun Qingbai would react to the news.

The more observant people noticed that Yun Qingbai’s number one position on the Genius Gold Rankings had remained unchanged.

But at the same time, some people also discovered that in the past years, Lin Xun’s name had never once appeared on the Genius Gold Rankings!

……

The outside world was ever-changing like the weather, but inside the tower, Lin Xun had already stabilized the power of the fourth longevity tribulation stage and was able to perfectly control it like his own hand.

“If I possessed this power when I ran into Yun Qingbai, then he would not have been able to escape...”

Lin Xun woke up from meditation, his eyes unfathomable and still.

The fourth longevity tribulation stage was the beginning to the six challenging tribulations. According to the classification of cultivation level in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, the fourth longevity tribulation stage was already considered the core force of the nine longevity tribulations.

However, the longevity tribulation stage of a Supreme King was different!

“With my current strength, if I go all out, I should be able to kill supreme figures at the fifth longevity tribulation stage,” Lin Xun analyzed.

He subconsciously disregarded ordinary kings at the longevity tribulation stage.

They were not on the same path, so they could not be compared.

Given his current strength, he would have no problem killing ordinary kings at the seventh longevity tribulation stage.

Of course, this was just Lin Xun’s analysis.

The specific situation would only be known in a real battle.

“I can start refining the Xiantian Clear Pearl.”

A thought struck Lin Xun, and he closed his eyes again.

In his body, a clear bead around the size of a pigeon egg was floating above the dao seed, emitting wisps of chaos qi and thick dao light.

According to Xuan Kong, the Xiantian Clear Pearl was formed from the source power of the Xiantian Saint Treasure Tragic Death City!

Lin Xun could feel the wisps of alpha qi emitting from the pearl were indescribably mysterious and even had a restoring and improving effect on his cultivation, spirit, and state of mind.

This was because the qi was transformed from merit!

Lin Xun had thought of asking the big black bird if he knew about the origin of this object.

But his senior brother Xuan Kong had warned him that he must not let anyone know about the pearl, but he did not tell him the reason.

Buzz—

Without thinking too much, Lin Xun settled and focused his mind on refining the Xiantian Clear Pearl.

Immediately, he felt his mind quaking as though a grand and sacred ancient city was emerging in his mind!

The divine city was majestic with holy light flowing around it and filled with the aura of eternity. It stood between heaven and earth as though linking the human world with the land of the afterlife!

Cryptic ancient dao sounds echoed in his mind like the chanting of sages from ancient times.

Vaguely, Lin Xun seemed to see remnants of souls and spirits being led and gathered on the altar in the center of the divine city.

And then, they were released, liberated, and dispersed...

At the same time, as souls faded, wisps of alpha qi integrated into the walls, ground, and buildings of the city, turning the city more magnificent and glorious than ever. A divine aura permeated the world and illuminated the galaxy.

The city was called Tragic Death!
