The Prodigies War
Chapter 3057 A Sudden Calamity
The Creation Realm was a realm where one refined the laws and principles of heaven and earth for personal use, wielding miraculous power akin to a legendary creator, and capable of turning the mundane into the extraordinary.
Within the river of time born from the origin power of the Fortune Dominion, Lin Xun overcame the Nine Ultimate Dao Tribulations in one fell sweep. Not only did he successfully prove his dao and ascend to the Creation Realm, but he also gained the foundation to transcend the rise and fall of epochs.
The power he now wielded was fundamentally different from that of other Creation Realm cultivators, so vast such that no one of the same realm could truly compare. Under such circumstances, slaughtering Law Transcendence cultivators as he had earlier was utterly effortless, with no possibility of resistance or obstruction.
Now, even when facing the combined assault of nineteen Creation Realm beings, the situation was no different. After all, this was now a battle within the same realm.
Even when he stood at the Law Transcendence Realm, Lin Xun could already slay intermediate Creation Realm experts, let alone now, after ascending to the Creation Realm.
From the moment the battle erupted, Lin Xun held an absolute advantage. His divine might surged unchecked, overwhelming all others and revealing combat power that defied the heavens.
Boom!
A pagoda forged of white bone descended from the sky. Vast waves of law power surged around it, transforming into mountains of corpses, seas of blood, and infernal purgatories that plunged the void into chaos.
Lin Xun answered with a single palm strike. The white bone pagoda was blasted away with a thunderous boom, cracks spiderwebbing across its surface. At the same time, a streak of sword qi burst forth from Lin Xun’s body, flashing through the void like lightning.
Pu!
The head of the Creation Realm cultivator controlling the pagoda was severed cleanly, blood spraying high into the heavens. Only because his primordial spirit fled in time did he avoid complete annihilation.
Rumble!
Meanwhile, the mere aura radiating from Lin Xun shattered the attacks coming from all directions, leaving him utterly untouched.
“Kill!”
A black-robed man let out a piercing roar, burning his own cultivation as he transformed into a streak of blood-red light, launching a desperate, all-or-nothing strike. Unfortunately, his attack never even reached within ten feet of Lin Xun. It instantly reduced to dust, as if it had struck an invisible wall of copper and iron.
Lin Xun stepped forward. Boom!
Billions of obscure strands of radiant light intertwined in an instant, forming a vast and profound grand array that descended from above. The black-robed man was suppressed completely, his body and primordial spirit swept away before they could even begin to disintegrate.
A Creation Realm being was suppressed and killed with ease! The sight sent a chill straight through Gaoyang Huai and Jiang Tao.
“How can he be this strong?!” someone roared in fury.
From the very start of the battle, Lin Xun had displayed an invincible, domineering stance. Even with nineteen Creation Realm beings joining forces, they were utterly incapable of suppressing him. On the contrary, he was suppressing them alone. Who could possibly accept such a reality?
These were figures who had survived countless ages of rise and fall, yet even united they accomplished nothing. Instead, Lin Xun seized the moment and slaughtered one of them outright. It was terrifying beyond words.
“There is no path of retreat. Fight him to the death!” a silver-robed woman said coldly. She raised her jade-like hand, commanding a Divine Rank law. Her aura roared upward, its might alone enough to pulverize even Law Transcendence beings.
Despite that, before Lin Xun, she was utterly powerless. In the blink of an eye, she was struck back, blood spilling as she was forced into retreat. Had the others not intervened to restrain Lin Xun together, she would have perished on the spot. At this moment, Lin Xun was simply too strong, advancing unhindered with no one able to stop him.
Before long...Shua!
Lin Xun’s palm cleaved across the heavens like a divine blade. A flash of peerless brilliance erupted, and a Creation Realm expert was severed at the waist. Before his primordial spirit could even flee, it was crushed on the spot, annihilated completely.
From that moment on, the battle became a one-sided slaughter. One Creation Realm being after another fell.
The heavy stench of blood permeated the collapsing, primal-chaos-like starry sky. Dao sounds reverberated without end, divine radiance swept in all directions, and the battlefield transformed into a doomsday-like purgatory.
Lin Xun moved freely among them, unrestrained and unstoppable. Even beings of the Creation Realm were powerless to halt his killing spree.
Furious roars. Piercing screams. Crimson blood and death intertwined, painting a scarlet scene capable of shaking the ages.
Within Fortune Divine City, Mo Yang and the others felt their limbs turn ice-cold, their dao hearts trembling violently. They stood there dumbfounded, as though they had forgotten how to breathe. This was no longer a battle of one against many. It was a massacre carried out by Lin Xun alone!
“Kill!”
Desperate roars thundered across the starry sky. Gaoyang Huai and Jiang Tao’s eyes turned bloodshot and their veins bulged. They fought like madmen as they cast aside all concern for their own lives.
Unfortunately, it was still futile. They could not shake Lin Xun in the slightest. Instead, their companions continued to fall one after another...
The sight made their hearts feel as though they were being torn apart. They were not without trump cards of their own, yet even when those were unleashed, Lin Xun crushed them with overwhelming force, leaving them utterly ineffective.
Very quickly, of the nineteen Creation Realm existences present, only nine remained. Even among the survivors, several were already grievously wounded.
Gaoyang Huai and Jiang Tao had yet to give up, but the remaining thirty-odd Law Transcendence Eternals were already gripped by terror, their courage shattered and their fighting spirit completely collapsed.
“We should retreat.”
“In the entire Fortune Dominion, no one can rival Lin Xun!”
“Run!”
Panic erupted. The Law Transcendence powerhouses fled in disarray, their faces pale with terror as they scattered in all directions. They were the first to collapse.
“Do you truly think I, Lin Xun, would allow insignificant trash like you to escape?”
With a flick of his sleeve, streams of Divine Rank laws shot skyward, completely sealing off this stretch of the starry sky.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! At the same time, four great dao bodies manifested out of thin air and struck down together. Each dao body now possessed power no weaker than Lin Xun’s true form. Acting in unison, their speed and might far exceed anything Law Transcendence cultivators could hope to withstand.
Terrified screams and furious curses rang out in rapid succession. In the blink of an eye, all thirty-odd Law Transcendence Eternals were wiped out completely. Not one survived!
Witnessing this, Gaoyang Huai, Jiang Tao, and the remaining Creation Realm beings still clinging to desperate resistance felt a bleak despair wash over their hearts. It was over! The tide had completely turned!
Earlier, they had united the Eternal beings of all the major divine clans, assembling an overwhelmingly powerful lineup. Upon their arrival, they utterly disregarded Lin Xun, openly mocking him and clamoring for him to come out and accept death.
Now...all that remained in their hearts was despair and utter helplessness! No one could have imagined that Lin Xun would successfully prove the dao and ascend to the Creation Realm. No one expected Lin Xun’s strength to reach such a tyrannical level!
The battle raged on. Lin Xun did not hold back. With the four dao bodies joining the fray, the enemy’s collapse only accelerated.
Pu! Pu! Pu!
One Creation Realm being after another fell amid the starry sky. At the moment of death, each had both body and primordial spirit seized by Lin Xun. None were spared a tragic end.
In the end, only Gaoyang Huai remained. His face was smeared with blood, his black hair disheveled. He roared like a wounded beast, his voice hoarse with hatred, “Lin Xun, the epochal calamity is descending...you will not escape death either! Just you wait...”
Boom!
Before he could finish, Lin Xun coldly brought his palm down, blasting Gaoyang Huai’s body apart. Thus, every Eternal Realm being who had gathered to besiege Fortune Divine City was wiped out by Lin Xun alone.
However, before the people of Fortune Divine City could recover from their profound shock, a terrifying beam of tribulation light suddenly appeared out of nowhere. It carried an incomparably dreadful power, far surpassing anything before it. Like a peerless sword qi cleaving through the heavens, it descended straight down, striking at the very moment Lin Xun relaxed his guard.
“What’s happening?”
In that instant, countless hearts jolted in alarm. That tribulation light was obscure and unfathomable, suffused with an eerie, ominous aura. The moment it appeared, the vast starry sky abruptly darkened. Even the layers of Divine Rank laws blanketing the heavens were suppressed, frozen in place, unable to move.
Before anyone could react, the tribulation light sliced through boundless space and time, crashing into Lin Xun and tearing his flesh apart.
“Lin Xun!”
“Father!”
“Master!”
Mo Yang and the others, together with Lin Fan and Su Bai, cried out in horror, their expressions completely changing. No one had expected such a sudden reversal, especially at the very moment when Lin Xun was sweeping invincibly through all Eternal Realm foes.
In the next instant, Lin Xun’s figure reappeared hundreds of feet away. The tribulation light had destroyed nothing but an afterimage left behind by his terrifying speed of movement.
Mo Yang and the others all exhaled in relief. The very next instant, their expressions froze as they turned toward the depths of the starry sky, confusion and unease flashing in their eyes. At the same time, Lin Xun’s expression turned solemn.
Deep within the starry sky, a gray, mist-shrouded tribulation cloud had silently formed. It exuded an eerie, ominous aura that sent chills through the soul, even without a single sound. The earlier beam of tribulation light had emerged from deep within that cloud.
Even Lin Xun felt a chill creep across his body, as though an invisible gaze had locked onto him from afar, filling him with unease.
Could it be the Great Silence Unlife Calamity?!
The moment this thought crossed his mind, the tribulation cloud shuddered violently. From its depths, hundreds and thousands of formless, colorless tribulation lights burst forth, tearing through space and time as they shot straight toward Lin Xun.
Boom!
Almost by instinct, Lin Xun pushed his cultivation to an unprecedented height. His aura surged like a boiling cauldron, erupting without restraint.
“Destroy!” Lin Xun roared. Billions of sword qi imbued with the profound essence of Nirvana burst forth, unfurling into boundless curtains of light that collided head-on with the descending tribulation.
A deafening barrage of explosions followed. The starry sky split apart, cracks spreading across it like a shattered canvas. In the end, Lin Xun managed to block the onslaught of tribulation light, but the impact sent his blood and qi into violent turmoil. His figure staggered, and his expression grew noticeably grim.
From those tribulation lights, he sensed a familiar aura, identical to the trace of the Alpha Origin Principle within the Alpha Origin stone statue he had refined! There was no doubt that this was the work of the mastermind behind the epochal calamity.
Moreover, this time the mastermind did not rely on the power of others. Instead, it directly manifested a great calamity in the depths of the starry sky and locked onto Lin Xun!
