The Prodigies War-Chapter 2119: Testing Out the Killing Array of Perishment

Rumble!

Chaos engulfed the world with lightning crackling and thunder roaring.

Thousands of blood-colored fiend spirits burst forth like a tide, each one possessing strength equivalent to a supreme quasi-Emperor. The strongest even rivaled a third-level supreme quasi-Emperor!

Meng Xingzi became aghast with horror, hair standing on end. He never imagined that such a devastating calamity would erupt all of a sudden.

“Now, do you understand? I was not scared, but just very bored.” The man in green’s laughter echoed between heaven and earth.

“To tell you the truth, I’m also pretty bored, I’ll play with you for a little while then.” Lin Xun smiled.

As he spoke, he flicked his sleeve and folded his hands into a hand seal.

“Rise!”

With precise, mystical footwork, he traced the paths of the constellations and then extended a finger, pointing toward the northeast.

Amidst deafening rumble, countless dao rune symbols burst forth in the northeast, radiant and glowing like a divine rainbow soaring skyward.

“Kill!”

A horde of blood-red fiend spirits rushed over, vicious and malevolent, their aura anything but restrained.

Lin Xun did not attempt to fight them. With a flash, he vanished from the spot and reappeared in another direction.

“Rise!”

Forming a hand seal, he stepped forward with deliberate movements. With a boom, dao runes poured out like a tidal wave, dancing in a circle and glowing brilliantly.

On the blood-red mountain summit far away, the smile on the man in green’s face faded, replaced by a frown. He didn’t quite understand what Lin Xun was planning to do.

He neither attacked nor dodged, and instead he seemed to be setting up a formation.

However, how would it be easy to set up a dao rune forbidden array in this world? In addition to array flags, array plates, array bases, array stones, one also needed a source of power that could maintain the operation of the array! ṛＡɴоＢÈ𐌔

The man in green felt that arranging an array at this time was no different from seeking death.

Even though he couldn’t understand Lin Xun’s reasoning, he thought it was best to attack and destroy his efforts.

He sent out a terrifying and bizarre thought that swept the area like a storm:

“Attack with full force and stop whatever he’s doing.”

The tide of blood-red fiend spirits madly charged at Lin Xun, as if they had received an order from god.

Rumble!

The world was thrown into chaos as countless blood-colored figures filled the air and a destructive force swept the world, almost drowning Lin Xun’s figure.

The scene was too terrifying. Imagine, if thousands of supreme quasi-Emperors were dispatched together, how terrifying would their combined power be?

Furthermore, all those attacks were aimed at Lin Xun alone!

Long before the battle erupted, Meng Xingzi had already made his escape, leaving without the slightest hesitation

He thought that Lin Xun would also retreat like him, but who would have thought that Lin Xun had no intention of running away at all?!

When Meng Xingzi looked back at the battlefield, Lin Xun had already been drowned in the chaos. The sky and earth quaked violently, blood-red light surged like waves, obscuring everything from sight.

A chill gripped Meng Xingzi’s heart, leaving only one question in his mind: Flee or stay?

……

Waves upon waves of fiend spirits charged forward like a raging sea, swallowing the heavens and earth. The unparalleled chaos continued to spread, crushing and destroying the void.

The power of the forbidden array that enveloped the blood-red mountain was activated, just barely counteracting and dispelling the destructive force.

The man in green breathed a sigh of relief on the mountaintop.

He put his hands behind his back and stared intently at the distant battlefield, his eyes flashing with a peculiar light. His green robe swept around him with an air of majesty, as if he was a ruler standing proudly over his world.

“He’s not dead yet…That guy is much stronger than I expected...” he murmured.

He saw that Lin Xun was still putting up a fight, and although surrounded, he remained unyielding, with no sign of weakening for now.

Despite that, he did not panic.

……

“Rise!”

“Rise!”

“Rise!”

In the midst of the countless blood-red shadows, Lin Xun flashed like an erratic beam of light, swift and untraceable.

Despite being surrounded with no escape, he effortlessly crushed his opponents.

There were so many enemies that they seemed endless, but in terms of strength, none was worthy of Lin Xun’s notice.

Additionally, the fiend spirits fought on instinct, lacking intelligence or consciousness. This fact alone made them inferior to true supreme quasi-Emperors.

“Rise!”

Once Lin Xun performed the final hand seal, he vanished in a blur, breaking through the encirclement and reappearing beneath the sky.

He drew a deep breath, and his dark eyes gleamed with anticipation.

Then, he waved his sleeve.

“How overbearing!” A cryptic sound reverberated through the air like a thunderclap.

“That’s…”

The man in green on the distant blood-red mountain frowned as he looked at Lin Xun standing proudly beneath the sky. Suddenly, a bad feeling surged in his heart.

The next moment, he froze in place, his pupils dilating sharply

Suddenly, massive azure lotus flowers appeared on the battlefield, swaying elegantly. Hundreds and thousands of them blanketed the sky and earth, turning the mountains and rivers into a sea of azure.

It was like endless azure lotus leaves extending toward the sky!

Looking closely, every azure lotus flower was as huge as a millstone, swaying in the void of the universe. Each lotus flower was composed of countless intricate dao runes, swirling with billions of misty and magnificent light.

The lotus flowers in full bloom each bore thirty-six petals, with stamens shimmering like polished jade. It seemed as if divine beings sat within each one, reciting sacred dao scriptures, their chants resonating throughout the world with ethereal dao sounds.

In the blink of an eye, the dark, blood-soaked, chaotic battlefield seemed to transform into a sacred realm of gods, a pure kingdom filled with blooming lotus flowers!

The man in green stood rooted to the spot, trembling with fear. An uncontrollable chill rose within his heart. Even at that distance, he could feel fatal danger approaching.

“The array channels the will of the gods, and the dao radiates the boundless power of all existence!” Lin Xun’s indifferent voice echoed like the sound of the great dao.

Then…

Amid the countless azure lotus flowers, phantom images of gods surged forth, unleashing an unstoppable torrent of divine brilliance across the heavens. The world seemed to be set ablaze, all things reduced to ashes, and even the void was consumed by flames.

Not only that, dao sounds roared endlessly, quaking the heavens and the earth!

The sea of blood-colored fiend spirits crumbled like paper and turned into ashes, swept away by the endless light and dao sounds.

In a flash, the world seemed to be thoroughly cleansed. Not a trace of a fiend spirit remained. All seemed to be wiped out and completely gone from the world.

Only the azure lotus flowers stood strong, resembling a world of their own, while the gods were like fleeing illusions. Divine azure light cascaded across the land and over the mountains and rivers.

Boom!

On the blood-red mountain in the distance, the layers of dao rune forbidden arrays collapsed like an avalanche, shaking the mountain violently before it crumbled into ruin.

The man in green, who was standing atop the mountain, was also caught in the destruction. He was hurled through the air with the force of a hurricane, looking miserable and helpless.

“What a powerful array! What amazing ability!” He coughed up blood, and his handsome face was distorted with shock and anger.

Those fiend spirits were his subordinates, and each of them possessed strength of the Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage. However, they were all obliterated under the power of the array!

Furthermore, it all happened in the blink of an eye!

This was an unprecedented blow to the man in green, shaking him to the core. His confidence and pride seemed to collapse at this moment.

Hovering beneath the sky, Lin Xun was also filled with indescribable shock.

The array, Killing Array of Perishment, was ranked ninth in the world. It was created by Mister Lu and it had once demonstrated its unparalleled brilliance in the Dao War of Emperors, killing five Emperors and severely injuring eight!

It was this array that earned Mister Lu, who was only at the Quasi-Emperor Stage, the title of Array Emperor Lu!

However, Lin Xun had only set up a very simplified version of the Killing Array of Perishment, and its power was limited and could not compare to the true Killing Array of Perishment.

Even so, once he activated the array, it still wiped out all fiend spirits and obliterated everything!

“How strong would it be if it was a complete Killing Array of Perishment?” Lin Xun could barely contain his excitement.

Qing Ying had given him the jade slip left by Mister Lu, which held his wealth of knowledge on the art of runes.

It not only had records of the Killing Array of Perishment, but also many other secrets related to runes. It was simply a vast boundless sea of knowledge.

With Lin Xun’s current mastery in the art of runes, studying it often provided profound insights and frequently left him in a state of enlightenment.

The Killing Array of Perishment he set up earlier was based on secrets he had grasped in just a few days. Even with only a superficial grasp of its basics, its power was not to be underestimated.

Whoosh

Soon, the azure lotus flowers in the sky dissipated in a shower of light.

In the vast world, Lin Xun turned to the man in green in the distance and asked, “Do you still feel bored?”

The man in green inhaled deeply, wiped the blood from the corner of his lips and sighed, “Fellow Daoist, you are truly extraordinary, as if you command the clouds and rain with a turn of your hand. How would I dare to act out again?”

As he spoke, he still sounded a bit bitter. “I’m curious, without the power of that array, would you have been able to break out of the encirclement?”

Lin Xun answered indifferently, “I said before, I just wanted to test the power of the array because I was bored. If I made a move, you would have met your end already.”

The man in green looked blank at first then he couldn’t help chuckling, “Fellow Daoist, in your eyes, am I really that bad?”

Shua!

With a single step, Lin Xun appeared before the man in green, his palm striking out with cold indifference.

The man in green’s eyes flashed. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for!

Unfortunately, when he truly faced Lin Xun’s palm, it was as though an invisible cage had closed around him, leaving no room for him to escape or evade.

With no other option, he had to meet it head-on.

As though driven by battle instinct, the man in green summoned all his strength.

He refused to believe that someone at the third-level Supreme Quasi-Emperor Stage would be a match for him in a head-on confrontation.

Boom!

His blood and qi roared through his veins as if thousands of volcanoes were erupting all at once. Unmatched violent law power burst forth, condensing into a palm print before blasting outward with devastating force.

This was the first time he had gone all out ever since he gained spiritual intelligence. That one palm strike was an accumulation of his lifetime of cultivation!

The void twisted into chaos as divine brilliance erupted. With a thunderous explosion, the man in green’s palm strike shattered, powerless and unworthy of mention.

He was hurled across the air before smashing heavily into the ground hundreds of feet away, whipping up a cloud of dust and debris.
