The Prodigies War

"The second move!"

Purple dao light spread from Zhuanyu Heng and condensed before him into another giant, sky-covering hand.

Unlike the first, this hand seemed capable of encompassing an entire world and surged with the wishpower of all living beings.

Moreover, various incredibly pure flames appeared to be burning within it!

The flames of conviction!

It was a phenomenon that occurred when wishpower was manifested to the extreme.

In Kunlun Dominion, Zhuanyu Heng became a Sage through the wishpower of all living beings. Since he was now at the perfect supreme Saint-King Stage, it was clear that he had already integrated the wishpower of all living beings into his Dao Field!

This was undoubtedly a terrifying sentiment.

In the distance, Heng Xiao’s expression involuntarily changed at the scene, clearly affected by what he was witnessing.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that in terms of the wishpower of all living beings, not a single person in the entire Cloud State would be a match for Zhuanyu Heng!

"Heaven and Earth Dao Court core disciples are indeed as incredible as rumored..."

Heng Xiao’s heart trembled.

Rumble!

Amidst the rumbling thunder, flashing lightning, and flowing haze-like light, a maelstrom of destruction rapidly gathered in response to the power of the giant hand.

The entire Xuanji Dao Sect was plunged into a state of alarm as countless gazes swept over to investigate.

In the face of the approaching hand that seemed to blot out the sky, Lin Xun’s expression remained unchanged as he waved his sleeve and snapped his finger.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Fierce and dazzling streams of Taixuan sword qi rushed forth.

The first stream of Taixuan sword qi exploded with a boom. However, its power only caused the giant hand to tremble slightly.

Stream after Taixuan sword qi rapidly exploded, creating a brilliant light show.

Zhuanyu Heng's giant hand was extremely domineering. Imbued with the powers of the flames of conviction and his Dao Field, it seemed capable of slaughtering any god or buddha who stood in its path.

Bang!

By the time the final stream of Taixuan sword qi exploded, the giant hand was already looming right above Lin Xun.

Despite this, he didn’t flinch as he punched at the sky.

Heavenshaking Punch!

Infused with Lin Xun's advanced Great Dao Field, the punch resembled an abyss rising into the sky as it released a heart-palpitating devouring force.

Rumble~

Hand and fist collided like two small worlds, causing dreadful torrents of power to violently splash outward.

The surrounding land trembled as numerous ancient arrays all over Xuanji Dao Sect activated to create protective fields.

Without them, the terrifying destructive forces would have ravaged the entire sect.

"This..."

"Impossible!"

Screams rang out from Zique and the other ladies. Their originally unafraid and confident expressions had been replaced by alarm and panic.

It was due to the scene they were witnessing on the battlefield. Lin Xun's fist force unleashed another burst of power that not only stopped Zhuanyu Heng’s dreadful hand but also caused it to crumble inch by inch!

In the gradually fading hand, the wishpower of all living beings dimmed as the burning flames of conviction were rapidly extinguished as if a storm was sweeping through...

In the end, the giant hand collapsed with a loud rumble. All of the power contained within it was crushed by the fist force and annihilated without a trace.

Zique and the other ladies were frozen in shock.

The second move was a display of their Young Master's true strength, yet it was overwhelmed!

"Not bad, not bad at all. Someone like you is bound to draw a lot of attention in Central Plains State. However, I find it strange that I’ve never heard of you before."

Zhuanyu Heng withdrew all of his arrogance as his expression turned serious.

He realized that he had encountered an extremely formidable enemy!

He was also both surprised and shocked that he had been completely unaware of the appearance of such a heaven-defying powerhouse in Cloud State.

Moreover, the name Jin Duyi had never appeared on the All Heavens Saint-King Rankings in recent years!

"The world is big and full of wonders. There are still many things that you don’t know of." Lin Xun nonchalantly said, "There’s one move left. If you fail to take me down, it will be my turn next."

The words made Zique and the other ladies grow nervous, no longer able to remain composed like before.

Although they served Zhuanyu Heng, each of them was a strong expert in their own right. As people who had followed him for many years and seen all kinds of outstanding talents, their standards were much higher than the norm.

Hence, although only two exchanges had occurred so far, they had already realized that Jin Duyi was a formidable individual who was not the least bit inferior to their Young Master!

Zhuanyu Heng took a deep breath as a determined look flashed in his eyes. "Then I shall show you my true ability!"

He suddenly clasped his hands together and made a series of hand seals.

Rumble!

The originally clear sky was swiftly covered by a layer of billowing deep purple as a strange, eerie silence engulfed the area.

A three-inch-long sword qi appeared in front of Zhuanyu Heng. It was bright and transparent as if it had been meticulously cleaned and exuded an aura of unmatched sharpness.

The most terrifying part, however, was that the auras of the air, land, and everything else began to be drawn and absorbed into the sword qi the moment it appeared.

Clang!

The three-inch sword qi suddenly grew an inch, causing its power to jump as the purple layer in the sky grew increasingly deep and frightening.

"Oh no!"

Heng Xiao's expression abruptly changed as he shouted an order, forbidding anyone in the sect from approaching the area.

At the same time, he hurriedly waved his sleeve, turning up the nearby arrays to operate at maximum capacity.

Only after doing all that did Heng Xiao feel a little more at ease. Although Zhuanyu Heng's third move had yet to be unleashed, it already made Heng Xiao feel a deep sense of trepidation.

There was no doubt that this move was Zhuanyu Heng's trump card.

The fact that it was still not at full power made Heng Xiao’s scalp grow increasingly numb and tingly.

Clang!

The sword qi continued to grow inch by inch as if it was being drawn out from a seal.

With every inch, its power dramatically increased.

Toward the end, the surroundings seemed to dim as Zhuanyu Heng was engulfed by the light from the sword qi, causing him to appear increasingly illusory.

Anyone who witnessed the scene would feel a stabbing pain in their mind and feel as if their soul was being torn apart from the inside.

The aura released by the sword qi was simply too dreadful and felt as if it could utterly destroy heaven and earth and everything in between.

When the sword qi reached a length of nine inches, a pale-faced Zhuanyu Heng with brightly shining eyes finally spoke in a low voice,

"This move is called Nine-Inch Dao Edge. It is the manifestation of my lifelong cultivation and I have only used it twice to this day.

"One was when I killed sixteen powerful enemies of the same cultivation realm at the initial supreme Saint-King Stage.

"Second was when I killed a quasi-Emperor some time ago."

His voice rang out across the sky with a noticeable pause between each word, his tone flowing with arrogance and murderous intent.

"You will be the third opponent who made me use it."

Inwardly horrified, Heng Xiao’s expression became extremely grave. He was shocked that Zhuanyu Heng had killed someone an entire greater cultivation stage higher!

It was simply unimaginable!

Zique and the rest of the ladies revealed infatuated expressions. This was the strength of their Young Master that had made them willingly submit.

However, Lin Xun shook his head and laughed. "I only know that the same thing won’t happen thrice. Your final move will share the same fate."

Truth be told, he was inwardly amazed because he had sensed danger.

The move’s power had stimulated his qi and ignited his fighting spirit.

Zhuanyu Heng didn’t say anything else and suddenly waved his sleeve.

Swish!

The nine-inch sword edge in front of him immediately shot forth.

Wherever the sword qi passed, alarming cracks were soundlessly torn open as if the world was but a canvas.

Even someone as formidable as Heng Xiao felt a sharp pain in his eyes.

Zique and the other ladies couldn’t even open their eyes and even the spirit sense they sent out felt as if it was being diced to ribbons.

Although the nine-inch sword edge seemed ordinary, it had gathered the power of the surrounding world and contained unfathomable terror!

Meanwhile, Lin Xun also made his move and sword qi rushed out from every pore in his body like a flood.

Sword qi gathered like a torrential storm that seemed capable of covering the world and took the shape of a sword furnace which seemed intent to devour the universe!

Sword qi rained from every direction, containing the powers of the Taixuan Sword Scripture and his advanced Great Dao Field!

In an instant, the nine-inch sword qi was swallowed by the sword furnace and a series of rapid thunderous collisions followed.

Zique’s and other ladies’ minds fell into turmoil. It felt so terrible that they nearly coughed blood.

Heng Xiao took a deep breath and circulated his energy to neutralize the horrific aftershocks from the collisions.

In the sky, a sword furnace seemed to rage as uncountable streams of sword qi within it fiercely fought the nine-inch sword qi. The two forces repeatedly clashed, splattering bursts of sword qi in every direction.

It was a horrifying scene.

Any outsider who interfered at this juncture would undoubtedly sustain grievous injuries at the minimum and at worst be completely destroyed in both body and spirit.

As the fierce battle continued, the nine-inch sword qi gradually dimmed and blurred.

Likewise, the sword furnace was smashed in many areas and shook violently as if it were on the verge of collapse.

In the end, the sword furnace exploded into a rain of light that scattered across the sky.

Before Zhuanyu Heng could celebrate, the nine-inch sword qi also crumbled and disappeared amidst the scattering energy torrents.

Zhuanyu Heng's pupils shrank. He stood there in a daze as his hands and feet turned cold.

The Nine-Inch Dao Edge was the ultimate manifestation of his cultivation. It had once slain a quasi-Emperor and earned him endless praise from the elders of his sect.

However, the move he was most proud of and that he had absolute confidence in had been stopped!

Moreover, his opponent was someone of the same cultivation stage whom he had never heard of before!

It was a heavy mental blow to Zhuanyu Heng that left him in disbelief as his head continued to buzz incessantly.

Soon, the dust dissipated and the sword qi disappeared.

When Zique and other ladies' regained their vision and spirit sense, their eyes widened at the sight of Lin Xun standing there without a single injury.

...

How is this possible!?
