The Prodigies War-Chapter 2216: For the Xuan Clan
The Xuan Clan elders were furious, their quivering fingers pointing at Xuan Shangchen as they admonished him.
“Shangchen, you were naughty when you were a child, and that’s fine, but it’s not now you are the patriarch! Do you really think we old guys can't do anything about you?”
“Simply unseemly!”
An old monster was so angry that he almost kicked Xuan Shangchen’s butt.
Xuan Shangchen just listened with a smile, calm and unrattled.
It wasn't until the elders were tired of cursing that he finally spoke, “Seniors, using a chance to enter the Divine Xuan Realm in exchange for the friendship of a future Eternal Supreme…isn't a loss, don’t you think?”
The Xuan Clan elders were stunned, their expressions clouded and uncertain.
“But you shouldn’t have kept it from us!” said one of them angrily.
Xuan Shangchen donned an ashamed expression and bowed in all directions as he said, “Everyone, you are right for admonishing me. From now on, no matter what decision I make, I will definitely consult with you first. I will not make this kind of serious mistake again!”
The Xuan Clan elders looked at one another as their heads ached. Xuan Shangchen was like a pain in the neck who could annoy people to death while they couldn’t do anything about him. His personality simply could kill.
A highly respected old man said, “Forget it. Since it’s already irreversible, we should not let this frustrate us.
“Besides, it might not be a bad thing. Lin Daoyuan…is indeed worthy of our attention. As the saying goes, those who turned a blind eye to the pine seedling all rush to flatter it when it grows to scrape the sky. Since we’ve recognized him to be such a seedling, let’s not wait until he grows tall to form a friendship with him.”
Xuan Shangchen strongly nodded. “First Uncle is right! Those who help when you are in need are better than those who butter you up when you are successful.”
Someone frowned. “I'll just ask, when it comes down to it, do you all accept going to war with Heavenly Emperor Shi because of him?”
After a short silence, the group of Xuan Clan elders all acquiesced.
They themselves had nothing to do with Lin Xun, but on pure consideration for the clan's interests, the idea of having his friendship was very tempting!
He was a disciple of Fangchun Mountain. He had received the legacies of three legendary Great Emperors: Taixuan, Mo Yang, and Zhukong. On top of that, he himself was a supreme Emperor who also possessed the Eternal Supremacy heritage…
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that as long as this young man didn't fall prematurely, he would sooner or later become powerful enough to dominate worlds and reign supreme in the Emperor Stage!
Presented with an opportunity to befriend Lin Xun, the Xuan Clan elders were of course tempted beyond measure. They only hesitated because they were apprehensive of Heavenly Emperor Shi.
One of them asked, “Patriarch, we previously sent people to obstruct Lin Daoyuan, so I'm afraid that we’ve already offended him. Is it still possible…”
Xuan Shangchen solemnly interrupted, “Second Uncle, you've pinpointed the key problem. Why do you think I let him enter the Divine Xuan Realm? It’s to express my apologies on your behalf.”
The elders all nodded. Now that they had calmed down, they realized how wise Xuan Shangchen's move was.
Seeing their expressions relax, Xuan Shangchen struck while the iron was hot, “But this still isn’t enough.”
“Not enough?” Those elders were dumbstruck, almost unable to believe their ears.
Since the beginning of time, Lin Daoyuan was the first outsider ever to enter their Divine Xuan Realm, but such a sincere compensation…was not enough?
Xuan Shangchen patiently explained, “Listen to me. The Divine Xuan Realm is the core treasure of our clan, yes, but considering his potential, do you think it would impact him much if he didn’t get to train there?”
The crowd of elders fell silent.
The cultivation path of a supreme Great Emperor, who carried many legacies and also the fortune of Eternal Supremacy, was indeed not something that could be affected by a single Divine Xuan Realm.
“Humph! After saying so much, you can stop beating around the bush. Just what else are you trying to do for that brat?”
The highly respected elder from before glared at Xuan Shangchen. Knowing the patriarch's character, how could he not tell that the other party had been trying to lay the groundwork for something?
“Leave it to you to know me the best, First Uncle.” Xuan Shangchen gave a thumbs up and flattered the old man, then straightened his face and said, “As you all know, I owe Zhong Qiu, the second disciple of Fangchun Mountain, a huge favor from a long time ago…”
With that, he stated the purpose of Lin Xun's visit, purposely pointing out that he wanted to go to the True Dragon World to kill a woman who had a connection with Heavenly Emperor Shi.
Instantly, those Xuan Clan elders were moved.
“Zhong Qiu wants to wage war with Heavenly Emperor Shi?” someone was visibly startled.
This was indeed sky-breaking news. The elders were unable to calm down after hearing it.
“That should be the case, or else he wouldn’t have sent Lin Xun to do this.” Xuan Shangchen's gaze was serious. “So, whether it's to repay a favor or to take out Heavenly Emperor Shi, how can our clan stand idly by when it comes to Lin Xun's trip to the True Dragon World?”
An elder eagerly nodded. “Yes, we must help!”
The others exchanged glances and couldn't help but chortle. Then, they turned to Xuan Shangchen. “So, this is your true purpose, Patriarch!”
Xuan Shangchen also laughed, “Of course. It’s for the sake of our clan, after all!”
For the Xuan Clan!
The elders all nodded in satisfaction. “You have our approval. Isn’t it just helping him travel to the True Dragon World? Although the path has been blocked, it’s not a big deal. We can just use the Divine Xuan Mirror to blast out a spacetime tunnel to that place!”
“At the end of the day, it's your wisdom that I rely on, Uncles!” Xuan Shangchen smiled and patted the elders on the back, but inside, he let out a long sigh of relief.
He knew too well how stubborn his clan’s elders were. It truly hadn’t been easy to convince them this time.…
“This matter needs careful consideration. The True Dragon World is occupied by some troubling old fogeys. They certainly won’t be happy if we cut open a path to their lair.”
“Right, why don't we…show them that treasure that our clan keeps? That would at least deter those domineering old dragons.”
“No, don’t forget that we are helping to send Lin Daoyuan to the True Dragon World. If we do that, I'm afraid those old dragons will make it difficult for our little friend.”
“In fact, I think…”
These Xuan Clan old men had been furious not long ago, but now, they were actually discussing how they should help Lin Xun travel to the True Dragon World.
Xuan Shangchen looked on with a smile and didn't say much.
The world knew of him, Great Emperor Xuanyan Xuan Shangchen, as the fiercest expert in the Emperor Stage, but who knew that within the Xuan Clan, he always used his wits and gift of gab to convince his people?
……
In the Divine Xuan Realm.
Rumble!
Rolling chaos qi filled the air like big dragons racing between heaven and earth. The aura of origin they emitted was so thick and pure that it made one's heart tremble.
As soon as Lin Xun arrived, he couldn’t stop himself from gasping.
This world was transformed wholly from primal chaos origin. Being in it was like going back to the birth nest of the almighty dao or the primordial chaos, where both the body and mind were bathed in an ocean of wondrous great dao energy!
In an instant, Lin Xun's qi became active, as if cheering as it greedily and frantically sucked in the omnipresent primal chaos origin in the air. It felt like he was being immersed in an immortal spring outside and inside, and he felt so light that he could turn into a feather.
It was only now did Lin Xun deeply understand what a phenomenal treasure this Divine Xuan Realm was. No wonder it was regarded as the foundation of the Primeval Imperial Xuan Clan!
Lin Xun resisted the urge to sit down and meditate immediately. Instead, he flew up.
The Divine Xuan Realm was divided into thirty-six heavens. The higher one went, the greater the benefits one could obtain.
Boom!
As Lin Xun rushed upward, he felt an oppression coming. It was not the pressure from the law power of this world, but instead one that was entirely generated by the power of primal chaos origin.
It was like how the most unique, peerless pill passively radiated a terrifying aura!
This was undoubtedly incredible. Lin Xun looked forward to what was to come more and more.
He shot straight up and reached the sky dome in just moments.
After arriving here, he looked up and saw that there was actually another layer of sky above!
Apparently, he was standing in the second heaven of the Divine Xuan Realm.
The power of primal chaos origin in this heaven was obviously denser than before, permeating the air like a fog. Every breath Lin Xun took and exhaled was brimming with pure energy.
He dared not imagine what kind of divine, marvelous zone the thirty-six heaven was.
With no further hesitation, he charged up again.
The third heaven.
The fourth heaven.
The fifth heaven.
He rocketed without the slightest stagnation, all the way up across layer upon layer of extraordinary heavens.
In the process, the pressure imposed on him kept growing stronger and more violent.
Without exaggeration, cultivators under the Emperor Stage would find it difficult to move an inch here, not because this world was treacherous, but because the power of primal chaos origin filling it was far too tremendous and thick.
It was like asking a normal person to eat an Emperor-grade pill. The pill’s aura alone would make it impossible to get close, let alone taking it into one's mortal body.
“No wonder the members of the Xuan Clan need to go through heavy screening and become Emperors to qualify for entry. This…really isn't a place that just anyone can enter!”
Along the way up, Lin Xun marveled as he was overwhelmed with emotions.
When he reached the tenth heaven, he judged that anyone below the third realm of the Emperor Stage would be unable to move forward from here.
In fact, Lin Xun also felt the pressure on him begin to climb.

Reaching the fifteenth heaven, he already had to run his cultivation to counteract and dissolve the terrifying oppression produced by primal chaos origin.
Upon reaching the twentieth heaven, this pressure forced him to utilize all of his strength!
The speed at which he was moving up also started slowing.
However, this was not his limit!
Of course, if it came time when Lin Xun could no longer hold on, he certainly would not push himself. This was a blessed world for cultivation and not a place of fighting and killing.
If he risked injuries to climb higher, how could he still focus on cultivating with a broken body?
In Lin Xun's opinion, the most suitable place for his cultivation was definitely where he was pushed to the limits that he could take and, importantly, stand firm without sustaining any damage!
