The Prodigies War
Chapter 1882: God Killing Needle

The brilliance Chu Qiu showed was no less than Gu Jianxing’s. He defeated his opponents within ten moves!

When Lin Xun had defeated Dong Liushi, Chu Qiu had sent his third opponent blasting out of the ring with a single sword slash.

His opponent was seriously injured whereas he was unscathed.

Everyone watching was startled!

In other rings, there were also some other eye-catching characters.

In particular, there was an old man named Shi Long who had severely injured a younger generation supreme Saint-King within seconds. His strong arts and fierce combat power caused countless uproars.

According to public information, Shi Long had been stuck in the early stage of the Supreme Saint-King Stage for six hundred years. He was only a second-rate sect elder.

It was easy to overlook this kind of older generation character, so Shi Long's combat power was surprising to all!

Although the scene of Lin Xun defeating Dong Liushi had also attracted some attention, it did not cause as much of a sensation in comparison because of the other fights going on.

At least, Tao Songting of the Great Void Sect was of that thought.

This made the blue-clad woman called Madam Yu frown slightly, but before she could speak, Hong Yu of Xuanji Dao Sect said calmly, "Brother Tao, I am quite optimistic about Jin Duyi. I think he will definitely win ten consecutive games and pass the first round of selections."

"Oh?" Tao Songting sneered, "Brother Hong Yu, my question still remains. What if Jin Duyi fails to do it?"

There was an invisible competition between the seven major lineages of Cloud State.

Recently, the Great Void Sect had always been considered the number one power in Cloud State, so Tao Songting had his nose in the air when he faced Hong Yu and the others.

Madam Yu admiring Jin Duyi was one thing, but the fact that Hong Yu was actually voicing a dissident opinion against him made Tao Songting feel a little unhappy.

"Haha, how about this? Brother Tao, let’s make a bet amongst ourselves. If Jin Duyi is eliminated in the first round of selections, then I will give this thing to you."

As he said this, Hong Yu turned his palm over, and a gray gem emerged. It had faint traces of blood on it, and the aura it emitted was obscure.

Emperor Blood Jade Pendant!

Quasi-Emperors, such as the woman in the blue dress, all revealed odd looks. This was a treasure that contained the blood of a great Emperor. It was priceless, enough to make any quasi-Emperor excited and jealous.

Tao Songting was also startled, and he became more and more unhappy. Are you really going to go against me, Hong Yu?

Hong Yu seemed not to notice Tao Songting's displeasure as he smiled, "If I win, how about you give me the ornament from your hair? How’s that Brother Tao?"

"Sure!" Tao Songting snorted and agreed.

His red robe was like fire, his white hair was like snow, and he had an ink-colored wooden hairpin in his hair that was engraved with winding dao runes. It was elegant and timeless.

This wooden hairpin was a magical treasure named the Auspicious Wooden Hairpin. Wearing it could make a person’s mind and six senses clear.

It could also play a wonderful role in resisting external demons during cultivation. It was a rare treasure for quasi-Emperors to hone their mindsets.

However, Tao Songting didn't expect that Hong Yu would not only go against him, but also eye his Auspicious Wooden Hairpin. This made him even more upset.

Because of this bet, other quasi-Emperors couldn't help but glance at Hong Yu a few times. Does this old guy know something we don’t about Jin Duyi?

"Brother Hong Yu, even if you win in the end, you can't snatch Jin Duyi from me." Madam Yu, who was dressed in blue, smiled and teased, "Otherwise, I will fight you to the death."

Hong Yu simply smiled.

Tao Songting was becoming more and more irritated.

This episode also made the other quasi-Emperors present start to pay some attention to the battle on Lin Xun's side.

At this time, his second opponent had already stepped onto the stage and begun to fight.

He was an old man named Wang Zhenyang, a peak Saint-King. Although he had never set foot on the supreme path, his arts and fighting methods could be described as sophisticated, exquisite, and horrifying.

In the same realm, whether one had set foot on the supreme path was like the difference between the sky and the ground, so it was incredibly difficult for the lower to overturn the higher.

However, the strong combat power displayed by Wang Zhenyang was completely beyond many people's expectations and was enough to even change their perception of him.

The reason was because Wang Zhenyang's control of the power of the great dao was too precise, and it seemed to have reached the level of perfection.

This was especially true for his Great Dao Field, Seamless and Flawless. It was like a sky-reaching net that had no holes and presented a beautiful and consistent domain.

Although Lin Xun could have won immediately, he did not try to at this point because he benefited from sparring with Wang Zhenyang and gained many insights.

He even found it hard to imagine that an old man who had never stepped onto the Supreme Path could reach such a magical level in his control of the dao.

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, Wang Zhenyang smiled bitterly and shook his head. He took the initiative to admit defeat, "My friend, you are clearly able to dissolve my skills and break my arts and laws in one swoop, but you've been humbly holding back. If I continue to fight now, then I could only call myself too ignorant for my own good.”

"Senior, you have attained a remarkable peak in combat arts. If you were on the Supreme Path, then I am afraid that it will be difficult for the younger generation to get the upper hand on you."

Lin Xun bowed.

When the word ‘supreme’ was mentioned, a hint of gloom flashed across Wang Zhenyang's eyes. He sighed and turned away.

A long time ago, he was a peerless genius who was well-known in the world and had enough qualifications to step onto the Supreme Path. Unfortunately, he had been ambushed by the enemy during a break through, so he missed it!

It was not as if hatred still filled him, but every time he thought of that event, he couldn’t help but feel a bit regretful.

This was one wrong step leading one down the wrong path!

The pursuit of the great dao had always been this ruthless and cruel.

Wang Zhenyang, who walked off the stage, suddenly turned around. "My friend, would you like to hear the words of a frustrated person?"

Lin Xun nodded.

"Remember, in the battle for the great dao, you must never give in!"

Wang Zhenyang emphasized every single word in a decisive manner. After that, he turned and left.

Lin Xun was touched and bowed to Wang Zhenyang's back from a distance.

Unfortunately, most people did not understand. They only saw Wang Zhenyang admit defeat so many of them burst into laughter.

They thought that he was an old man and did not know that he had lost grace by participating in such a selection. Now he had lost. Wasn’t he just asking for trouble?

This was the view of the world.

The frustration, loneliness, and bitterness in one’s heart were not something that people who watched the fun cared about.

However, Lin Xun had an indescribable feeling within him. Even if Wang Zhenyang had never set foot on the Supreme Path, his future journey would definitely not stop there!

In fact, eight thousand years later, when Wang Zhenyang, who was now revered as Zhenyang Emperor, talked about this past event, he also had an indescribable feeling.

Because it was also on that day that he had realized that the young man who appeared as Jin Duyi was destined to achieve more than he could imagine in the future.

Sure enough, in the years that followed, his prediction came true!

In the third duel, Lin Xun's opponent was a pretty woman with a pair of clear and innocent eyes, but her figure was sexy and attractive. Her curves were delectable and she had pale, snow-white skin. As soon as she appeared, she attracted heaps of attention.

"Sir, this is my first time to participate in such a grand event. I am very nervous. Please be merciful later."

She looked very charming and her voice sounded like the melodious song of a yellow oriole, which made some spectators' hearts melt.

Lin Xun said blandly, "Okay."

The woman's eyes were bright and her smile was intoxicating, "Sir, you are really a good person. Then I will start."

She flickered, like a dreamy haze, and slapped at Lin Xun with one palm.

Boom!

The void immediately exploded in large pieces that resembled frozen ice and snow as it was unable to withstand the domineering aura of such fighting power. Looking closely, this palm actually gave people a sense of frigid coldness that could freeze everything within a thousand miles!

She had clearly integrated the mysteries of her Great Dao Field into this palm strike.

Many people were dazzled and smacked their lips.

Seeing this, Lin Xun didn’t even give it a second glance as he also struck out with his palm.

The two collided, and the palm power that seemed to bring down a world of ice and snow completely dissipated under Lin Xun's counter, just like snow melting into water.

Bang!

Following that, the pretty woman was like a kite on a broken string as she was slapped out of the ring fiercely. Blood spurted from her mouth and nose. Her hair was disheveled, and her snow-white and attractive body was twitching due to severe pain.

The whole audience was stunned.

There were sounds of gasps.

How could Jin Duyi treat such a charming and lithe little lady in such a brutish way?

Furthermore, he was so cruel and merciless!

Of course, the most shocking thing was that Lin Xun's palm not only seriously injured the woman, but also suppressed her with one blow making her completely lose the battle!

No one expected this.

"You are so cruel!"

Outside the ring, the woman's hair was disheveled, and her originally clear and innocent eyes were filled with resentment and hatred. Her teeth had almost been broken.

"You are too insidious."

On the ring, Lin Xun turned over his palm, revealing a magic needle as thin as a cow's hair. It was almost transparent with a hazy and illusory luster.

"If I'm not mistaken, this treasure should be called God Killing Needle. It is stained with the breath of disaster and destruction. Once stabbed, the victim may not die immediately, but, within three months, their soul will be corroded and turn into ashes before dying suddenly."

Lin Xun's dark eyes were deep as he said coldly, "Earlier, you had hidden this thing in your hair before you silently took it out during your attack. If I hadn't been prepared, I would have been hit."

His explanation made many people’s expressions change, and they realized why Jin Du had been so cruel earlier. It turned out that this seemingly pure and charming woman had actually used such a sinister and despicable method!

In the judging area, Tao Songting, Hong Yu and the others were also surprised, and the look in their eyes changed when they looked at the woman again.

God Killing Needle!

Such a vicious treasure could only be specially refined by someone in the Ancient Nebula Underworld!

"Just wait!"

The woman's face turned pale when she saw that her tricks had been exposed. She glanced at Lin Xun coldly and turned away in a hurry.

"This woman should be from the Underworld, but her means are probably not specifically aimed at me..."

As Lin Xun watched the woman leave he came to that conclusion.

This woman probably came from the Underworld, but she likely didn’t expect that her well-hidden killing method would be discovered and expose her origins. Or, perhaps she had gotten the God Killing Needle from a different place.
