The Prodigies War-Chapter 2672 Three Fate Blades

Lin Xun stepped into the void and ascended. Standing tall amidst the billowing sea of clouds, he looked toward Ye Chunjun from afar and said calmly, “How shall we decide the victor?”

Ye Chunjun thought for a moment before replying, “Since we’re only contending for a fortune, there’s no need to fight to the death. Whoever loses gives it up, how about that?”

“Agreed.” Lin Xun nodded.

Ye Chunjun seemed slightly surprised by how readily Lin Xun agreed. Smiling, he said, “Brother Lin, why do I get the feeling you can’t wait to begin?”

Lin Xun blinked in surprise, “Am I? When one finally meets a worthy opponent, their heart itches to fight.”

Ye Chunjun let out a hearty laugh. “It seems Brother Lin has been without a worthy rival at this stage of cultivation for quite some time. In that case, how about we compare our respective cultivation?”

Lin Xun replied offhandedly, “Naturally.”

Ye Chunjun raised an eyebrow, chewing over the word ‘Naturally’ in his mind.

How confident must one be of their own cultivation to utter that so casually?

Even knowing that I come from the Origin Sect Ancestral Court, he remains so calm and composed. This Lin Daoyuan...is certainly no ordinary supreme Emperor Ancestor.

In that moment, he too felt the same sense of kinship Lin Xun had felt upon seeing him earlier.

It was at this moment that he understood the other man’s earlier words, ‘When one finally meets a worthy opponent, their heart itches to fight’. It was not an overbearing arrogance, but instead a will born from the depths of the heart!

Such a mindset was undoubtedly an invincible will tempered through countless life and death battles that had long fused into his bones. It was also why he could remain so calm and composed.

“Very well. Today I shall face Brother Lin with everything I have on the Supreme Path!”

Ye Chunjun’s eyes shone like stars, and the mind that had been tranquil as an ancient well suddenly roiled with surging battle intent. His entire presence transformed. His robe whipped in the wind as blazing stars began to gather around him, making him seem like the sovereign of a realm of burning stars!

Boom!

The world seemed to turn on its head. With a single step Ye Chunjun tore through the sky and appeared before Lin Xun, striking out with a palm.That fair, slender hand suddenly expanded into a vast cosmos. Countless stars blazed and exploded within it, unleashing waves of terrifying destructive force.

The might of that palm was truly devastating! A flicker of interest lit Lin Xun’s eyes. Just as he had sensed, his opponent possessed astonishing mastery at the Supreme Ancestor Stage. This was evident in that single palm strike.

With that thought, Lin Xun too struck out with a palm. That palm was like a surging abyss, obscure and unfathomable. In an instant, it collided with the opponent’s strike and an earthshaking torrent of power erupted between them.

The surrounding void burst apart again and again, sending shockwaves spreading in all directions. The terrifying aura of ancestor laws surged fourth, shaking the nine heavens.

Boom!

The two figures crossed paths in midair, then halted, standing tall in the void, facing one another. Their invisible fighting spirits clashed, flooding heaven and earth with a bone-piercing murderous aura.

“Brother Lin is indeed extraordinary.”

Ye Chunjun’s heart trembled. With his current cultivation, he ranked among the very best of the Origin Sect’s successors in the same cultivation stage, even if he could not truly be called invincible.

According to the sect elders, aside from the Origin Sect, only the Spirit Sect, Zen Sect, and Shaman Sect within the entire Eternal True Realm had figures capable of rivaling him.

Now, in the Rowdy Demon Sea of the Sixth Heaven Domain, he had unexpectedly encountered an extremely formidable opponent who was clearly not from the Four Great Ancestral Courts, yet his strength was in no way inferior to some of their top successors.

“Brother Ye, you and I have roamed this cultivation stage for many years. Since we seek to decide the victor then there’s no need to probe further. Let’s fight with all our strength.” Lin Xun said calmly.

That earlier exchange had already made him realize that defeating Ye Chunjun would be no simple matter, but that only made him all the more excited. As he had said, he had been invincible for too long. Finally, he had met a worthy opponent.

What fortune!

“Agreed.” Ye Chunjun smiled faintly. A blazing divine flame lit his eyes, and his aura surged higher and higher until his entire figure was wreathed in fire and his presence turned fierce and unrestrained.

“Brother Lin, I walk the path of the blade. Watch closely!”

Boom!

As Ye Chunjun strode through the air, heaven and earth quaked and the void beneath his feet caved in and shattered. In his hand, a gleam of blade light emerged, condensing into a dazzling, razor-sharp blade.

It was like a Buddhist monk’s blade, like the blade of authority in a sovereign’s hand, and like a sacrificial blade. It was a fusion of the essence of all blades beneath the heavens.

The blade is the dao!

Dense Ancestor-level laws condensed into a crystal-clear, snow-white divine flame that wreathed the weapon, emanating a domineering, earth-shattering power.

Shua!

When Ye Chunjun swung the blade, it was like splitting bamboo. In an instant, it descended toward Lin Xun’s head in a single, cleaving stroke.

A terrifying scene unfolded. As the blade came slashing down, the sun and moon lost their light, the stars grew dim, and all the brilliance in the world seemed to be gathering onto the descending blade.

“The blade is the dao!”

All of a sudden, a sound like myriad gods chanting scripture erupted between heaven and earth, as if declaring that this blade carried the will of the dao itself, and that no force under heaven could stop it at all!

It was terrifying beyond doubt. As the blade light descended upon him, Lin Xun’s eyes lit up and his fighting spirit surged to its peak.

Buzz!

At that critical moment, the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron appeared before him, intercepting the strike.

The blade let out a clear, resonant hum as white flames burst forth, shaking the cauldron violently. That power was so terrifying that it sent Lin Xun’s blood and qi roiling violently. However, his excitement only grew. This Ye Chunjun is indeed a worthy opponent!

Even with his strike blocked, Ye Chunjun remained unruffled. His movements grew more deliberate, and the blade in his hand let out a heaven-shaking roar before cleaving out again.

Though his appearance was unremarkable, in battle, he radiated a proud, unyielding might. His presence was peerless, and every move was bold and unrestrained, like a blaze sweeping across the world.

At this moment, with the blade in hand, he seemed about to slaughter and annihilate all heavens! In moments, the blazing fire-like blade light had nearly engulfed the spot where Lin Xun stood. Blade light blazed across all directions; the dao surged through all realms!

Blade is the dao!

Lin Xun no longer held back. His tall figure radiated an unfathomable dao light, deep as abyss, vast as hell. His cold eyes flashed like lightning, and his black hair danced wildly in the air.

Boom!

The sword cauldron soared into the sky, heralding the start of a fierce battle. Its advance was unstoppable, brimming with the might of a divine being.

As the battle raged on, Lin Xun grew more and more composed and calm, like an ancient well untouched by ripples, with a bright moon overhead and silver water cascading down, each drop of water perfectly round. The fighting intent around him burned fiercer and more condensed. Every strike he unleashed carried the might to sweep across the heavens and crush all before it.

He had stood proudly at the pinnacle of the Ancestor Stage for far too long, waging countless battles in this cultivation stage without ever tasting defeat! The appearance of Ye Chunjun had without question ignited his battle spirit.

“Brother Lin, I created the Emperor Scripture, the Fire Virtue Fate Dao. Within it lies the Three Fate Blades, forged by fusing my innate talent with every drop of my blood and sweat. Do you dare face them?” Ye Chunjun called out mid-battle, his voice loud and clear. The longer they fought, the more exhilarated he became. His every movement was unrestrained and blazing with confidence.

At this moment, Lin Xun gave him the unmistakable feeling of having met a lifelong rival, stirring his heart and setting his fighting will ablaze. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

“Why wouldn’t I?” Lin Xun chuckled, his voice echoing across the battlefield.

“Good!”

In Ye Chunjun’s hand, the blade transformed once again, concentrating all light into its tip. The single point shone like the first ray of dawn at the birth of the world, a brilliance that illuminated all creation. The killing intent it radiated was so fierce that the surrounding mountains and rivers crumbled like brittle paper.

Lin Xun’s eyes narrowed. The aura of fate? No!

This is different from the fate shackles within Xia Zhi’s body. Could this be the secret of his Fire Virtue Fate talent?

Interesting!

With that thought, Lin Xun drew a deep breath, and his entire aura suddenly transformed, condensing into a deep abyss like primordial chaos.

Vast, boundless, and unfathomable.

Immeasurable! Indescribable!

At that moment, Ye Chunjun’s blade swept down through the air.

“The past cannot be pursued!”

The condensed light on the blade seemed to defy the barriers of space, shooting straight for Lin Xun as if to pierce his body and sever all of his past cultivation. It was an unfathomable strike, touching upon the mysteries of fate. It was beyond terrifying.

Even Lin Xun was momentarily shaken.

With a single thought, the sword cauldron soared into the air, scattering billions of rays of light, reflecting the myriad daos of the heavens and unfolding the countless laws of the world. It radiated an aura that seemed ancient, eternal, and utterly unshakable. This was the ultimate manifestation of the Great Dao Furnace Art, which Lin Xun had poured his essence, blood and soul into!

Clang! Clang! Clang!

As the tip of the blade slashed down, the sword cauldron erupted with a torrent of divine flames, causing explosions so deafening they seemed to shatter the mind and soul. Their echoes resounded across the nine heavens.

However, no matter how domineering or fierce this strike was, it was stopped cold before the cauldron, unable to advance even an inch.

“The present cannot be held!”

Ye Chunjun’s aura shifted again. The aura of annihilation, slaughter, and utter destruction gathered upon his blade. The once white divine flames turned pitch-black like ink.

It was a darkness as deep as eternal night, threatening to drag the entire world into darkness and silence, and bury it in everlasting ruin. This blade strike was even more terrifying than the last.

Rumble!

The world formed by restriction power plunged into chaos. Ink-like darkness engulfed everything, swallowing light, shadows, and even the sight of Ye Chunjun’s blade itself. The darkness was silent, yet it burrowed into the heart.

At that moment, Lin Xun and the sword cauldron transformed once more, becoming a true abyss swirling in the void, releasing a terrifying aura of annihilation and devouring power. When the darkness descended, it was like plummeting into an abyss, being consumed and ground away piece by piece!

Darkness was like night, able to engulf all things under heaven and bring all phenomena of the world to a silent end. Now, the darkness sank into the abyss for eternity!

Boom!

In an instant, the boundless darkness shattered, and light returned to heaven and earth. Suspended in the void, the abyss remained, the one and only constant.

In the far distance, Ye Chunjun’s expression had grown solemn, his eyes blazing as bright as the sun. The second blade was neutralized just like that. The sight struck him to the core.

“The great dao is as deep and profound as the abyss, integrating and refining the myriad daos. Brother Lin, your methods are as if you’ve seized all the fortunes of the cosmos!” he exclaimed, awe in his voice and not a hint of restraint in his praise.

The means that Lin Xun had displayed were indeed too remarkable and unbelievable!

However, almost immediately, his aura shifted once more. He tapped the blade in his hand with a finger, and a clear, resonant hum rang out. “Next is my third blade, my proudest strike in this lifetime. Please enlighten me, Brother Lin!”
