The Prodigies War

Chapter 1497: The Bugle Sounded

On the shore, Zhao Jingxuan, dressed in a simple, elegant dress, was standing alone like a fairy that had descended upon the world. Her silky hair cascaded down her body like a waterfall.

Her face was as flawless as a painting, and her facial features had an ethereal beauty.

She seemed to feel Lin Xun’s gaze as a smile formed at the corners of her glossy, rosy lips, and she waved, “Long time no see, Great Demon God Lin.”

Her voice was pleasantly clear and melodious, drifting on the misty sea like the sound of wind chimes.

Then, Lin Xun came walking on the seawater, his robe billowing in the breeze. He looked exceptionally handsome and charming.

Zhao Jingxuan’s face lit up like the stars, and her smile broadened. Tender affection beamed from her eyes. She had thought of that guy more than once in the past year.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xun gave her a great big hug as soon as he came over. Her body stiffened at first and then relaxed in his warm embrace.

“Welcome back.” His cheerful voice sounded in her ears, and the warmth of his breath against her skin turned her pretty face bright red and shy.

It was also at this moment that she realized that Lin Xun seemed to be different from before. At least, he had never been so forward before.

Little did she know that in the month Lin Xun followed Mister Shen in carving stone statues, he had learned to face, deal with, and accept the various emotions in his heart for the first time ever since he started cultivating.

But no matter what, Zhao Jingxuan was still very happy about Lin Xun’s change. It was as if she was seeing a piece of elm wood that had been enlightened.

……

On the island, Lin Xun and Zhao Jingxuan sat side by side and chatted. The sea water crashed in the distance and the mist rolled in. Everything else was calm and quiet.

“So both Shaohao and Fairy Ruowu have become Supreme Saints...”

When Lin Xun learned the news, he couldn’t help but sigh.

“Are you very disappointed?” Zhao Jingxuan’s bright star-like eyes darted over at Lin Xun.

Lin Xun chuckled. “Why would I be disappointed? I have never thought to compete with them. After all, everyone pursues different paths, and everyone has different opportunities to ascend the dao.”

“But they were one step ahead of you.” Zhao Jingxuan seemed to want to test if Lin Xun would show some frustration and nervousness.

But from beginning to end, Lin Xun remained indifferent and calm. Evidently, he indeed did not mind them surpassing him, which Zhao Jingxuan admired greatly. This guy’s state of mind is indeed very different from before.

“Oh, on my way here I heard that the Nine Domains Battlefield will open up very soon.” Zhao Jingxuan suddenly remembered something.

“Is the Conflict of the Nine Domains going to come early?” Lin Xun trembled inwardly.

Zhao Jingxuan answered, “Yes, it won’t be long when the Star Chess Sea becomes very lively and busy. This is because on the Immortal Sacred Mountain, which is at the end of this sea, is a path that leads to the Nine Domains Battlefield.”

After that, Zhao Jingxuan told Lin Xun about some of the information she had found out about the Nine Domains Battlefield.

Some Lin Xun had never heard about before.

For example, on the Nine Domains Battlefield, in addition to enemies from the other eight domains, there were also many dangerous and unpredictable things.

Moreover, the Nine Domains Battlefield was littered with secret realm worlds, and some were riddled with great dangers. Anyone who set foot into them would definitely die.

On the other hand, some secret realm worlds contained unimaginable and astonishing opportunities.

Additionally, the laws in the Nine Domains Battlefield were particularly special in that any powers beyond the Saint Stage were suppressed and restricted.

For example, even if some people managed to bring forbidden treasures and weapons that exceeded the power of the Saint Stage onto the Nine Domains Battlefield, it would still be suppressed by the law power of heaven and earth.

Moreover…

Lin Xun kept everything in mind.

Less than one month after Zhao Jingxuan came to Star Chess Sea, A’lu also arrived, wielding an iron rod and riding a giant black dragon that he found from who knows where.

At first glance, Lin Xun stared at A’lu blankly because his originally built and imposing body had become much thinner than before.

His skin was still a bronze shade, and he looked rather handsome after losing a bit of weight, especially with his chiseled features.

“Big Brother, I feel shy if you stare at me like that.”

A’lu’s voice was still very rough and masculine like before, and he did not look shy at all. On the contrary, he had a smug and satisfied grin on his face.

“Pah!” Toady came up to him and spat out with disgust. He had just come out of closed-door cultivation not too long ago. “You used to be so mighty and strong looking, but now you look so feminine.”

Alu’s eyes went wide for a moment and then he unleashed a torrent of insults at Toady.

The two were perfectly fine if they did not see each other, but once they met, they would begin arguing loudly. Soon, a fight ensued.

Two months after A’lu arrived, the big black bird also arrived with a black wok on his back. As soon as he arrived, he shouted triumphantly, “In the Conflict of the Nine Domains, I, the Lord Bird, will rise above the others and suppress all enemies!”

Thud!

First, A’lu whacked him so hard with an iron rod that the black wok almost flew off his back.

Then, Toady followed up with a big slap across the big black bird’s face and scolded, “How can you talk so arrogantly in front of me?”

The big black bird saw stars for a while. He never expected to receive such a special welcome the moment he arrived. He was so furious that he started to croak loudly.

Lin Xun couldn’t help from laughing in the distance.

Zhao Jingxuan, A’lu, Toady and the big black bird had all come. Lin Xun felt he had returned to the time when they were in the Supreme Realm, and he truly felt ‘I am not alone on the path.’

……

Another three months passed.

One day, when Lin Xun was meditating he suddenly had a strange feeling.

He stood up and saw that the power of the Zhoutian Star Dipper Array that originally enveloped the vast Star Chess Sea was rippling violently.

Then, the restriction power of the great array gradually receded.

At the same time, on the other side of Star Chess Sea, a bugle horn sounded from the Immortal Sacred Mountain and echoed between heaven and earth.

The sound of the bugle was passionate, powerful and thrilling, like it had come from ancient times.

“Is the Conflict of the Nine Domains about to begin?”

Zhao Jingxuan, Toady, A’lu and the big black bird were all alarmed.

On that day, a bugle was also sounded in forbidden areas like the Immortal Sacred Mountain from all over the Ancient Wasteland Domain.

All of a sudden, the wind rose and clouds scudded across the sky.

“The battle bugle! That’s the sound of the battle bugle!”

Some experts of the older generation cried out with excitement.

A long time ago, whenever the Nine Domains Battlefield opened up, a battle bugle would sound, summoning the heroes of the world onto the battlefield.

It was a sign that the Nine Domains Battlefield was about to open!

“It’s finally here, several years ahead of schedule...”

Someone murmured, heart pounding in their chest.

“Everyone, prepare for battle. It’s up to us whether we can wipe away the past humiliation of our Ancient Wasteland Domain and defeat the enemies of the other eight domains!”

“We must win! Even if there’s slim hope, we must never give up!”

“Over the years, countless sages and powerful men have shed their blood and sacrificed their precious life to prevent our Ancient Wasteland Domain from being invaded by the other eight domains. This time, I hope we also will not disappoint the people of the Ancient Wasteland Domain.”

Such impassioned speeches rang out in countless ancient orthodoxies.

In the past few years, they had been preparing for today!

Hu—

The long and loud bugle sound gradually spread all over the Ancient Wasteland Domain, alerting all cultivators across the world.

“It’s here!”

Imperial Son Shaohao’s purple robe whipped around him as a mighty Saint aura spread outwards from him, as though capable of swallowing up the mountains and rivers.

“Let’s go.” Fairy Ruowu turned into a fiery red bird and teleported away.

On this day, supreme figures emerged from different areas and all headed to the passage of the Nine Domains Battlefield.

This included Yuan Fatian, Little Golden Winged Dapeng King, Chi Lingxiao, Mi Hengzhen, and Ye Mohe.

On this day, Saints from different ancient orthodoxies all led their elite squads and set off for the battlefield!

On this day, the vast Ancient Wasteland Domain was like a giant beast awakening from slumber, erupting with unprecedented fighting spirit.

In this great age, everything in the Ancient Wasteland Domain had changed.

It was also in this great age that a large number of supreme figures was born.

Now, could the Ancient Wasteland Domain wash away their past shame and defeat the armies of the other domains on the Nine Domains Battlefield?

……

Divine Apparatus Pavilion.

Mister Shen stood silently on a cliff, his robes fluttering with the wind.

“The great age is a time of chaos. After all the unprecedented chaos, whether or not the Ancient Wasteland Domain can survive lies in the Conflict of the Nine Domains...” he murmured.

Boom!

Suddenly, terrifying dao light rushed across and gathered in the sky, transforming into a stern and imposing-looking face. Its eyes were as boundless as the starry sky, flashing with all sorts of visions of the changing universe.

Then the eyes landed on Mister Shen, and a voice resounded like the great dao. “The Conflict of the Nine Domains is about to begin. A full-scale war is bound to break out on the frontline battlefield. I came here to ask you whether the Ancient Wasteland Domain is ready to fight to the death?”

If Lin Xun was here, he would definitely recognize it was Quasi-Emperor Bai Yujing, a mighty figure who had been defending the frontline battlefield of Ancient Wasteland Domain for years!

“Of course!” Mister Shen’s voice was of utmost calm, but resolute.

“Then what do you plan to do?” Bai Yujing asked again.

“How about I take a trip to the frontline battlefield with you?” Mister Shen said indifferently.

“You are finally going to take action...”

Bai Yujing looked thrilled for a rare moment. He knew that if Mister Shen came to the frontline battlefield, he would no doubt act as a stabilizing force!

Anyone who had set foot into the Quasi-Emperor stage would know what sort of terrifying existence was Mister Shen of the Divine Apparatus Pavilion.

He had not taken action in a very long time.

But if he decided to take action, no Quasi-Emperor in the Ancient Wasteland Domain would dare to doubt his ability!

“Let’s go.” Mister Shen stepped forward and ascended into the sky.

At that moment, his aura changed completely. He seemed to have removed his gentle exterior and revealed a peerless sharpness that had been hidden within him for countless years.

Heaven and earth roared, and all beings bowed their heads!

In the Divine Apparatus Pavilion, Mister Miaoxuan spaced out in astonishment. After all these years, Senior Brother...is finally going to take action!

Suddenly, Bai Yujing, who was about to leave, remembered something and asked, “Has that boy called Lin Xun decided to go to the Nine Domains Battlefield?”
