The Prodigies War

Chapter 985 Pride of the World

Chapter 985 Pride of the World

Lin Xun happily agreed.

He had previously found three incredibly miraculous king-grade herbs at the bottom of the lake in the Chaos Star Beach, which was an immeasurable harvest.

So, he wanted to try his luck at the Rock Appraisal Event since it was related to Star Debris Meteorite.

Gao Tianyi was very glad to hear him agree, so he quickly put together one hundred and fifty thousand top-grade aeth essences for Lin Xun. He also handed a badge to Lin Xun.

The badge allowed Lin Xun to select Star Debris Meteorites that were worth around forty thousand top-grade aeth essence for dissection at the Rock Appraisal Event.

Gao Tianyi originally planned to send someone to accompany Lin Xun, but Lin Xun refused.

……

At noon that day, Lin Xun left Skyone Pavilion.

The Rock Appraisal Event was held at a tremendous garden on the outskirts of the city, adjacent to the bank of the Boundary River.

In recent days, due to the earth shaking changes in the Boundary River, Jade Flame City had become extremely bustling, with cultivators from all over the world descending upon it every day.

Lin Xun felt this very well as he streamed through the crowd.

“Have you heard that Chu Beihai, the current Chosen of the Heaven Axis Holy Land, will arrive here in the afternoon to take part in the Rock Appraisal Event?”

“Really? A peerless genius figure like him actually came out of closed-door cultivation?”

“I heard that it is because a strange rock appeared at the Rock Appraisal Event and it attracted Chu Beihai’s attention.”

Chu Beihai was being discussed everywhere on the street, so it naturally caught Lin Xun’s attention.

Jade Flame City was just a remote city in the Ancient Blue Province, while the Heaven Axis Holy Land was the most ancient sect in the Ancient Blue Province!

Additionally, Heaven Axis Holy land was incredibly well-known and influential in the East Infinity World, due to its deep foundation and history that could be traced back to ancient times.

As a current Chosen, Chu Beihai was no doubt a famous outstanding figure in the Ancient Blue Province.

Lin Xun did not need to inquire about anything to learn many things about Chu Beihai.

Chu Beihai was born with extraordinary talent and aptitude.

He started cultivating at the age of three, and he trained under an old recluse master of the Heaven Axis Holy Land. At the age of fifteen, he had already reached the Cyclic Derivation Stage, and since then he had become the most dazzling young genius in the Ancient Blue Province.

He was known for his terrifying strength in combat, and he practiced the unfathomable Big Dipper Heaven Axis Art, a true precious dao art with astonishing destructive power.

Rumor had it that a genius like Chu Beihai would definitely occupy a place on the Genius Gold Rankings when the great age came.

The other people’s assessment of him was amazing!

“The East Victory World is vast, covering nineteen thousand provinces. And being the place of origin of the Ancient Wasteland Domain, it is made up of an unknown number of ancient sects and clans with countless young geniuses. Chu Beihai may be called a peerless genius, but his influence is likely only limited to a few provinces.” Suddenly, an old man’s remark caught Lin Xun’s attention. “I can only say that he has a chance of making it onto the Genius Gold Rankings when the great age comes.”

This old man was unquestionably extraordinary. Although he was easy-going and friendly in his appearance, he exuded an almost imperceptible majestic and imposing bearing.

“Old man, what you said is a bit exaggerated. Then, who do you think among the younger generation in the East Victory World can become known throughout the world and not limited to a few provinces?” someone asked in an irritated voice.

The old man smiled faintly. “Among the younger generation, there are many who are famous all over the world, such as Wang Xuanyu, the successor from the Taiyi Sect, Ni Hengzhen, the successor from the Sun Moon Sacred Palace, and Ye Moha, the successor from the Origin God Sect...”

The mention of the name Wang Xuanyu drew audible gasps, and many cultivators’ expressions changed.

Then, when they heard the name Ni Hengzhen, their morphing expressions were mixed with unconcealable surprise.

And when they heard the name Ye Moha, the atmosphere quietened.

Lin Xun had just arrived in the East Victory World, so he was entirely unfamiliar with the vast world that was regarded as the hometown of all saints.

So he did not feel anything when he heard those three names.

But when he noticed the nearby cultivators’ change of expressions, he realized that the three names likely represented three peerless geniuses whose names spread over the entire East Victory World!

“What do you think? How do those three compare to Chu Beihai?” The old man’s expression was calm and indifferent.

Everyone fell silent.

The Taiyi Sect was located in the easternmost region of the East Victory World, but the name of one of its successors, Wang Xuanyu, spread as far as the Ancient Blue Province, which was in the far west of the world. This fact alone proved that Wang Xuanyu was extraordinary.

Additionally, Mi Hengzhen, the successor from the Sun Moon Sacred Palace, and Ye Moha, the successor from the Origin God Sect, were not inferior to Wang Xuanyu in any way.

Chu Beihai’s reputation indeed could not be compared to that of those three.

“That’s just the reputation. If it was a real battle, Chu Beihai would not be inferior to any one of them,” someone retorted.

“You’re right. Fame is just one type of strength and not everything. When the great age comes and the grand battle of the great dao begins, we will know who is strong and who is weak.” The old man’s expression was as calm as always. But then he shook his head and sighed, “Unfortunately, the battle of the great age is also a battle of life and death. Although many geniuses exist in the world, most will become stepping stones for other people!”

Then, his figure vanished as if he evaporated into thin air.

Stepping stones!

Lin Xun trembled inwardly. A single general’s fame was made from the bones of ten thousand. It would be the same situation in a battle among the thousands of geniuses in the world.

It was destined to be tragic!

Who was that old man?

When Lin Xun attempted to figure out his identity, he already lost all traces of him. The old man seemed to have vanished into thin air!

Moreover, when Lin Xun thought about it carefully, to his shock, he failed to recall the old man’s appearance.

Could he be a Saint?

Lin Xun’s emotions surged more and more turbulently. Why would a majestic figure appear in the little Jade Flame City?

No!

He must be passing by here, and his destination is perhaps the Boundary River that is undergoing earthshaking changes!

Lin Xun speculated.

The streets soon returned to their buzzing state.

Since the Rock Appraisal Event started in the afternoon, Lin Xun randomly found a restaurant and enjoyed a meal and drink by himself.

He knew very little about East Victory World.

All he knew was that it was a place known as the Hometown of All Saints in the Ancient Wasteland Domain. It also had the title of ‘land where the Saint Dao lived forever’.

When he came to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, Bai Lingxi had told him that seventy percent of the world’s top peerless geniuses came from the East Victory World, and the remaining thirty percent were in the West Infinity, South Wonder and North Dipper Worlds.

This alone showed how prosperous and glorious the East Victory World was!

As the great age neared, the top figures of the young generation in the four worlds would all gather at the East Victory World.

This was because if the legendary Genius Gold Rankings were to appear, it would no doubt be in the East Victory World!

When that happened, to make it onto the Genius Gold Rankings, one had to compete in an unprecedented battle!

Le Caiwei also mentioned that in addition to the peerless genius figures who had long made a name for themselves in the world were demon-like characters lying low in the Hidden Holy Land.

She even bluntly said that when the great age came, the road to the absolute apex king path would be paved with the blood and bones of heaven-defying geniuses!

This was the battle of the great age!

“Ji Xingyao, Yu Lingkong, Shun Baixuan, Luo Jia, Le Caiwei...they are the supreme characters that I have met, but there are many more similar people like them in this world...

“Besides, how would Shao Hao from the Astral Imperial Clan and the little young master in deep slumber in the Five Elements Holy Island of the Return Dominion not take part in the battle of the great age?

“And how many monsters like them have been living in seclusion for an unknown number of years, waiting for the coming of the great age?”

After taking a sip of wine, Lin Xun sighed in his heart. There was never a lack of talent in the world. The more he progressed on his cultivation path, the more he understood that there was no limit in the universe!

Of course, Lin Xun would not forget Yun Qingbai!

If people like Ji Xingyao and Yu Lingkong were prominent figures of the younger generation, then Yun Qingbai could be called a legend who had already established himself.

“There’s big news! Old Monster Mo Xi has been killed!” someone shouted with excitement in the restaurant, sparking an uproar.

Old Monster Mo Xi was a king, how could he be killed?

“It is rumored that the one who killed Mo Xi was a young man called Lin Xun.”

“Lin Xun? Why have I not heard of him before?”

“He is not a cultivator from our East Victory World. He is from the West Infinity World, and he can be regarded as a supreme figure of the younger generation. He also has the nickname of Demon God Lin!”

“Demon God Lin? Haha, that name is crazy! I wonder if Demon God Lin will continue to display his demonic powers in the East Victory World.”

Discussions in the restaurant never stopped so Lin Xun’s expression unavoidably turned a little strange.

When he was in West Infinity World, anyone who talked about him would either express their admiration or grit their teeth with hatred.

But in the East Victory World, he was not taken seriously, or even mocked and joked about.

“No, a young man like him may be terrifying among his peers, but how can he be a match for Mo Xi?” someone doubted the reliability of the news.

“I heard that Lin Xun used a king grade forbidden array to trap and kill the old monster.”

“I see. I thought Demon God Lin was truly abnormally strong.”

“However, Lin Xun is still quite capable if he can kill a king with a great formation.”

The atmosphere in the restaurant became more and more relaxed.

“I heard that the Heaven Axis Holy Land has dispatched some forces to get justice for Mo Xi by hunting down and killing Lin Xun.”

Lin Xun trembled inwardly. He did not expect the Heaven Axis Holy Land to react so quickly.

“Hmph, he’s just a brat from the West Infinity World. He managed to kill Old Monster Mo Xi not because he is strong but because Old Monster Moxi was ambushed and trapped in the formation. He is nothing without the great formation,” someone snorted coldly. “If it were me, I could kill him as easily as slaughtering a chicken.”
