The Prodigies War
Chapter 2406 Kill an Emperor Ancestor!

Chapter 2406 Kill an Emperor Ancestor!

In the vast void, a fierce battle erupted.

A group of supreme figures surrounded Lin Xun, their combined might shaking the heavens and annihilating all in their path. The sheer destruction they caused was terrifying beyond imagination.

Already gravely wounded, Lin Xun now faced a dire situation. The pressure was so immense that he could barely lift his head.

Never before had any tribulation been so difficult and so overwhelming. It far surpassed anything he had prepared for.

Unfortunately, there was no time for fear or hesitation. His essence, qi and spirit burned with ferocity. The unyielding will forged through countless life and death battles allowed him to remain calm and composed even in this perilous moment.

Gradually, he noticed that although each opponent wielded supreme might, their attacks lacked intelligence and adaptability.

This was a critical flaw!

It was just that their overwhelming power masked this flaw, making it nearly imperceptible and difficult to exploit.

As the battle dragged on, Lin Xun’s injuries worsened. His body was torn and broken, his bones shattered. He looked utterly battered and bloodied.

He panted heavily, but the flames of battle still blazed in his eyes.

“They’re nothing but manifestations of thunder and lightning, and not true living supreme Emperors. I should meet them head-on with my mind, my will, my cultivation and my strength!”

With a thunderous roar, Lin Xun surged forward. His mind was as unshakable as a god’s, his will harder than iron. He unleashed the full force of his cultivation and fought with all his strength.

Kill!

Kill!

Kill!

He cast aside all fear of death and injury, only the pure will to fight remained.

Rumble!

After the time it took to brew a cup of tea, a figure armed with a golden halberd, wearing an imperial crown and clad in bloodstained armor was obliterated by Lin Xun’s fist, shattered into a storm of lightning that scattered through the sky.

As Lin Xun absorbed the storm of lightning into his body, a strange sense washed over him.

“Nie Longxiang, the number one supreme Emperor of the Feihuang Starfield, known as Emperor Lord Longxiang. A peerless figure who once reigned supreme across the ages...”

The information was vague, just mere descriptions, and with no real detail.

Lin Xun had never even heard of the Feihuang Starfield, nor could he fathom just how powerful this Nie Longxiang was.

However, this experience reminded him of what he had encountered within the Reincarnation World in the Nirvana of Transcendence—the rankings of ancient powerhouses across each cultivation stage throughout history!

Could this be the ranking of the Supreme Emperor Stage?

Lin Xun wasn’t sure.

Nor did he have time to think about it.

The battle still raged, but after defeating this opponent and absorbing the storm of lightning, Lin Xun’s strength underwent a miraculous transformation and his broken body surged with newfound power.

His spirit lifted.

Kill!

He was brimming with fighting spirit as he waged bloody battle after bloody battle.

Before long, an old man in daoist robe, riding a qilin and wielding a jade ruler was slain by Lin Xun. Before the falling light rain could even scatter, it was devoured by Lin Xun’s power.

Once again, that miraculous sensation surged within him.

“Feng Xingzi, the number one supreme Emperor in the Wenzhen Starfield, known as the Impermanence Emperor. He once dominated the cosmos for ninety thousand years...”

At the same time, Lin Xun’s power underwent another transformation.

“That’s it! Defeating these foes is the same as destroying the tribulation lightning. I can obtain the power of nirvana, and in doing so, trigger a transformation in my cultivation!”

A fierce gleam flashed through Lin Xun’s dark eyes. When he looked at the battlefield, it was as though he was gazing at prey.

Kill!

Without hesitation, he charged forward once more.

......

“What terrifying tribulation aura! Who is undergoing a tribulation right now?”

Nearby, in this broken, desolate universe, a dazzling golden figure suddenly appeared, radiating divine light and majesty.

A closer look revealed that it was the Grand Elder of the Myriad Spirit Divine Mountain in the White Crow Starfield—Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor!

At that moment, his pupils contracted and his expression changed dramatically.

Within his spirit sense, in the depths of the collapsed universe, thick tribulation clouds churned like an eternal night. The destructive aura alone was enough to make even an Ancestor-level existence like him tremble in fear!

Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor halted abruptly, not daring to draw any closer, afraid that even he might be consumed by the overwhelming power of the tribulation.

After a moment of stunned silence, realization dawned on him. “This is a tribulation of the sixth realm Supreme Emperor Stage...”

In the White Crow Starfield, there were supreme Emperors roaming freely too, and within the Myriad Spirit Divine Mountain, there were legends of such figures as well.

Among them was his junior brother, Emperor Qingxun. He was hailed as a peerless genius having reached the seventh realm Emperor Stage after only thirty thousand years of cultivation.

Thousands of years ago, he had journeyed to the Great Thousand Battle Domain.

As his senior brother, Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor knew all too well what kind of terrifying tribulation such beings faced when advancing to the next cultivation stage. It was different from what other ordinary Emperors faced.

“No, when Junior Brother Qingxun faced his tribulations, it was never this terrifying...”

Soon, a hint of disbelief crept into Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor’s eyes, and his expression shifted.

When Emperor Qingxun underwent his sixth realm Emperor tribulation, it was Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor himself who guarded him. Naturally, he was familiar with the profound secrets and power of that tribulation.

Now, as he observed the tribulation unfolding in the depths of this shattered universe, he was stunned to discover that it was far more terrifying than what Emperor Qingxun had endured. More than that, it was evolving in ways he had never seen, exhibiting bizarre and extraordinary changes.

This was far more terrifying than anything he had witnessed before!!

“Who is this person? How could someone trigger such an unbelievable tribulation?”

All of a sudden, Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor’s curiosity was piqued. He had intended to turn back and leave, but now he decided to stay and observe.

Time passed by.

Unknowingly, several hours passed.

At last, under his keen perception, the pitch-black tribulation clouds that had swallowed the heavens began to gradually disperse.

This allowed him to vaguely sense the figure undergoing the tribulation.

Unfortunately, the distance between them was too great, and the figure was still wreathed in blinding thunderlight, making it difficult to discern their faces.

“Incredible, to endure such a tribulation...this person’s achievements on the Supreme Path are definitely not inferior to Junior Brother Qingxun’s. In any starfield, they would be a peerless giant.” Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor murmured in awe.

Then, the next moment, his expression froze and his eyes widened.

“How...how could it be him?” he cried out.

In the depths of the distant universe, as the tribulation clouds faded, the figure at the center of the tribulation was finally revealed.

It turned out to be the person who had slain six Emperors of their Myriad Spirit Divine Mountain half a year ago!

Half a year ago, Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor had personally set out in pursuit of Lin Xun. Unfortunately, the universe was vast and he could only follow the vague traces that pointed toward the Great Thousand Battle Domain.

Never did he imagine that their paths would cross here!

The moment he recalled how he had marvelled in awe earlier, and how he had even considered befriending this mysterious figure, his face turned dark as if he had swallowed a fly.

“What a pity! With your talent, you could have lit up the ages, but since you have provoked my Myriad Spirit Divine Mountain... Today, you will not escape death...”

A raging murderous aura surged from his heart. He drew a long, deep breath. His expression turned cold as frost. Then, in a flash, he took a step forward and vanished without a sound.

......

Hu—

Watching the tribulation clouds in the sky gradually disperse, Lin Xun let out a long breath of turbid air.

Moments earlier, he had battled a group of supreme Emperors, devouring wave after wave of thunder and lightning power. Each time, his cultivation underwent nirvanic transformations, and now, he had finally stepped into the realm of No-Law Against Heavens!

Within him, the True Self Emperor World blazed like an eternal sun, endlessly releasing surging power.

At this level, the True Self Emperor World was truly indestructible. It held the power to refine all things, defy the rules, disrupt the order, and disregard the laws of heaven and earth. It was a state of true lawlessness.

Lin Xun could clearly feel that his power had undergone a profound transformation.

The Emperor Stage was divided into nine realms, each separated by a heavenly chasm.

The first three realms were known as a karmic obstacle, regarded as the Emperor Mind Obstacle.

Once this obstacle was overcome, both body and mind would undergo complete transformation, becoming a world of its own!

Between the fourth and sixth realms lay a great trial known as the Trial of Confinement.

It was said to be like a cage. Once broken, there would be no law and no heaven to bind you!

The fourth and fifth realms could be considered as stages of accumulation. However, once one reached the sixth realm, a profound and unprecedented transformation would take place.

Now, Lin Xun had broken free from the cage and stepped into the sixth realm Emperor Stage. His cultivation also underwent an unprecedented and complete transformation!

Unfortunately, before he could fully comprehend the profound secrets of this breakthrough, a sudden sense of danger surged through him. Instinctively, he shifted away in an instant.

Boom!

The space he had just occupied was obliterated by a massive, golden hand.

Lin Xun’s dark eyes turned cold in an instant

At the same time, a voice echoed from the distance, “You’re only at the sixth realm Emperor Stage. Even if you’re a supreme Emperor, the fact you dodged my strike means you’re not without skill.”

Immediately after that, Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor emerged, his expression frosty, eyes sharp as lightning. “But it’s a pity... Today, you won’t escape death.”

An Emperor Ancestor!

Lin Xun’s body stiffened and his pupils contracted.

He never imagined that such a terrifying existence would suddenly appear without warning.

Boom!

Before Lin Xun could even react, Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor had already struck without hesitation. A blinding torrent of golden dao light erupted from him, sweeping across the heavens and enveloping all directions.

With a flick of his sleeve, he formed a hand seal. Then, he slammed a palm forward.

That palm strike was imbued with the supreme laws of the Ancestor Realm—profound, boundless, and terrifying. From afar, it resembled the hand of the heavens crashing down to annihilate the world and all life within it!

In that instant, the might of an Emperor Ancestor was fully unleashed.

Lin Xun activated his strongest techniques without hesitation.

The Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron erupted with a roar, surging forward with devastating force.

The divine power of Time Stopping unleashed the light of time.

His cultivation surged to its peak.

The figure of Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor froze. Then, he was engulfed by the power of the Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron. With a loud boom, his body and primordial spirit exploded in unison, and before even a wisp of his essence could scatter, it was utterly erased!

In the blink of an eye, an Emperor Ancestor was obliterated!

Cleanly, decisively, and with absolute dominance!

Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor, who had previously appeared incomparably mighty and coldly arrogant, didn’t even have the chance to react before he perished.

Such a death was far too abrupt, too humiliating.

If word got out, no one would even dare to believe it.

After all, Emperor Ancestors were terrifying and formidable existences that stood above all the heavens. Despite that, such an existence had been slain in an instant without resistance. It would leave all cultivators dumbfounded.

Even Lin Xun was stunned for a moment. Then, he slapped his forehead with a groan of frustration, “How could I forget, I just broke through, I should’ve used that guy to test the strength of the sixth Realm Emperor Stage...”

If the slain Golden Flame Emperor Ancestor could hear this, how would he feel...
