The Prodigies War

The competition soon began. Xia Zhi, Lin Xun, Tian Xingzi, Chi Qianji, and Daoist Shuixun took turns battling each other using the five elements method. It was also in this competition that the old trio of Tian Xingzi, Chi Qianji, and Daoist Shuixun experienced Xia Zhi’s terrifying combat power for the very first time.

In fact, Tian Xingzi and Daoist Shuixun were successively defeated by Xia Zhi in their matches! At the end of the competition, Xia Zhi, who had won two battles, became the undisputed final winner.

"I know who she is."

Chi Qianji's expression was a mix of shock and realization.

"With fate as a crown and karma as her staff, she walks through the eternal nights of all worlds... It is impossible for a second person with such power to exist."

Tian Xingzi let out an emotional sigh. He had previously had still been somewhat unconvinced by his loss, but he now seemed to feel at ease upon realizing her true identity.

"Is she really that legendary person..."

"It’s said that she’s from the All-Wonder Dominion."

"Inconceivable..."

Many of the old monsters present seemed to recall some rumors from long ago, causing them to look at Xia Zhi in a completely different light.

Even Lin Xun was surprised. Only now did it properly sink in how famous her past life had been. He couldn't help but transmit, "Xia Zhi, is the Eternal Night Divine Emperor really from the All-Wonder Dominion?"

"Yeah." Xia Zhi nodded. "She did leave behind some memories of the All-Wonder Dominion, but most of them are very vague and blurry, as if she had erased them."

Lin Xun's pupils shrank. All cultivators yearned to go to the All-Wonder Dominion. Who could have imagined that someone like the Eternal Night Divine Emperor had come from the All-Wonder Dominion instead? That was simply incomprehensible!

Su Wanjun, who had been watching everything like a bystander, seemed to also become certain of Xia Zhi’s identity and inwardly murmured, "No wonder she can wield the power of fate so naturally. To think that Miss Xia Zhi is actually the Eternal Night Divine Emperor he spoke of..."

That day, the Great Dao Fate Lotus carried Xing Jianxia and Fu Nanli to the All-Wonder Dominion.

......

Spirit Martial World.

On Dao Seeking Sacred Mountain, Lin Xun and his senior brothers and sisters were merrily drinking. Amidst the conversation, he offhandedly asked, "Has Eldest Senior Brother still not woken up?"

Zhong Qiu smiled and replied, "Eldest Senior Brother is probably in the process of comprehending the dao. Although he hasn’t awakened, his aura is growing increasingly powerful. It’s likely that when it finally happens, he will undergo a transformation like a butterfly emerging from a cocoon."

Lin Xun nodded with a smile.

Ruo Su gently asked, "Youngest Junior Brother, in the current Spirit Martial World, the only ones capable of going to the All-Wonder Dominion are you and Miss Xia Zhi. When do you plan on leaving?"

Lin Xun grinned and answered, "There's no rush. I plan to enter seclusion once more. When my preparations are done, I will set off for the All-Wonder Dominion."

After the banquet ended, he entered secluded cultivation again like he had said. Over the past three hundred years, he had made multiple advancements in his cultivation. Each time was comparable to an increase of a lesser cultivation realm, greatly enhancing his combat power.

In recent years, however, Lin Xun had hit a bottleneck, and was unable to make further progress. Despite this, he felt that it was something to celebrate. Because once he broke through this bottleneck, he would probably achieve a true breakthrough in his cultivation!

Previously, my progress had been limited to the confines of the initial Immeasurable Realm, but if I manage to get past this bottleneck, it would likely be equivalent to being sent straight to the mid stage...

In his cave dwelling, Lin Xun cultivated while pondering about various things. Immeasurable also meant boundless. This realm was akin to a long and endless path, where every old monster tried their best to advance, hoping to reach the end of the realm.

However, throughout the numerous epochs from ancient times to the present, only a small handful had reached the pinnacle such as the Alpha Origin Master, Chen Xi, and that mysterious swordsman.

Lin Xun had been making steady progress on this path over the years, and his cultivation had undergone multiple transformations and improvements. Although he had grown strong enough to defeat top-tier Immeasurable Realm cultivators like Chi Qianji and Tian Xingzi, strictly speaking, his current cultivation was still only at the initial stage of the Immeasurable Realm.

If Lin Xun managed to break past his current bottleneck, he would ascend to the mid-stage of the Immeasurable Realm!

All daos return to one, all techniques return to one, all things return to one... In the path of cultivation, the Immeasurable Realm is the apex of the eternal path. It is the final step of one’s entire cultivation journey, and deduced according to the number of the great dao. At the end of the day, everything becomes one.

It begins from one, and ends at one. The heavens derive forty-nine, while one escapes. Since that is so, the beginning and the end will be consistent.

As he pondered, Lin Xun fell deeper and deeper into thought.

Thirty years later...Rumble!

In the cave dwelling, five dao bodies appeared around Lin Xun's true body. With a thought, the Green Wood Dao Body suddenly transformed into soft, pure green dao light, and merged into his cultivation. Almost immediately after, the Red Flame, White Metal, Yellow Earth, and Black Water Dao bodies also transformed into red, white, yellow, and black source dao powers, which merged with his cultivation.

His aura began to climb, radiating boundless divine brilliance. At this point, all the techniques he had mastered also fused into one, becoming a part of his own technique. This was all techniques returning to one!

From this very moment, the power of Lin Xun's true body was equivalent to the combined strength of his five dao bodies working together.

......

Fifty years later.

"Doh!” Lin Xun suddenly opened his eyes as a loud noise burst from his tongue.

Rumble!

The Limitless Abyss Sword Cauldron, which had been hovering in front of him, melted into dazzling light and surged into him.

From this moment, the sword cauldron and I are no longer separate. Only so can it be considered all things returning to one.

From this moment, all daos will be at my disposal, all techniques will be wielded by me, and all external objects will be in my grasp!

Every fiber of his being seemed suffused with flowing dao light as various magnificent and incredible phenomena manifested around him. In this moment, his cultivation bottleneck was smashed through like a paper window.

Sixty years later.

A Great Dao Fate Lotus emerged from the Sea of Fate, causing a tremendous upheaval. It was also at this moment that Lin Xun, who had been in seclusion all this time, rose to his feet.

He didn’t exude any aura, resembling an ordinary and unremarkable person. However, obscure dao light shimmered when light rippled across his eyes.

"Xia Zhi, shall have a look around the Lotus Fate World?"

“Sure!”

Soon after, Lin Xun and Xia Zhi rose into the air together and flew into the Lotus of Fate world. Although he was returning to a familiar place, his heart state was now completely different.

"Dao Friend, please stop for a moment."

Along the way, Lin Xun chanced upon a group of cultivators and immediately approached. The other side was clearly from the same factions, and all of them possessed Immeasurable Realm cultivation. Upon seeing him, they immediately came to a halt and revealed wary expressions.

"May I ask if any of you have seen Chi Qianji?"

Lin Xun smiled and cupped his hands together in greeting. Seeing that he didn’t show any hostility, the old monsters breathed a sigh of relief.

A man in a gray robe said, "Chi Qianji left in the previous dao competition."

"Left?" Lin Xun was taken aback. "What about Tian Xingzi?"

The gray-robed man replied, "He has also gone to the All-Wonder Dominion."

Lin Xun felt a sense of disappointment.

In the Sea of Fate, he only had a few friends such as Chi Qianji and Tian Xingzi. However, it was now clear that he would never see them again if he stayed in the Sea of Fate.

Lin Xun asked another question, "Have cultivators from Du Feng’s or Weng Xinghai’s factions come here?"

"Nope they haven’t." As the gray-robed man said this, his expression became somewhat complicated.

The Fate Lotus World had appeared twice in the past sixty years. Although Lin Xun hadn’t participated, his influence was still present. As such, how could Du Feng and Weng Xinghai possibly dare to come?

Lin Xun cupped his hands again. "Many thanks.”

Just as he was about to leave, the gray-robed man couldn't help but ask, "Dao Friend Lin, may I ask if you have come to participate in the dao competition this time?"

The other old monsters present perked up their ears. Sixty years ago, Lin Xun had stated that he would not participate in the dao competition until he had eliminated Du Feng and Weng Xinghai. This was naturally great news for other cultivators in the Fate Lotus World! However, if Lin Xun were to participate this time, the situation would be completely different.

"I’m not." Lin Xun smiled and shook his head.

The gray-robed man and others immediately felt relieved. Lin Xun and Xia Zhi then turned and left.

"Did you guys notice that Lin Xun no longer has any aura? That makes it impossible to sense his power as if he were just another ordinary person."

When the duo finally disappeared from sight, one of the old monsters asked out of bewilderment, "Does this mean that he has achieved some kind of incredible breakthrough in the past sixty years?"

"When the glamor fades, everything returns to its true state, where every move and action flows more naturally than ever. Such a change...is indeed astonishing..."

"I just wonder when he will go to the All-Wonder Dominion."

......

While these old monsters discussed Lin Xun, they couldn’t help but sigh deeply as they flew away into the distance. At some unknown juncture, he had become the most untouchable and terrifying existence in the Sea of Fate. As long as he didn’t leave, no one would dare to ignore his presence!

On the way, Xia Zhi asked, "Where are we going next?"

Lin Xun casually replied, "All my friends and acquaintances have departed, so there’s nothing left for me in the Fate Lotus World. I plan to visit other epoch worlds."

"Are you no longer afraid of being suppressed by the power of the Sea of Fate?"

"Yes, when we arrived earlier, I could already feel that I can now freely traverse the Sea of Fate."

"Take me with you."

“Of course!”

At this point of their conversation, Lin Xun suddenly looked up and gazed into the distance. A beautiful fiery-red figure appeared. With the charm and radiance of a girl at the peak of her youth, it was naturally Su Wanjun.

"Greetings, Senior." Lin Xun cupped his hands together in greeting.

Su Wanjun said, "We finally meet. I’ve come to bid farewell."

Taken aback, Lin Xun asked in surprise, "Senior, have you decided to go to the All-Wonder Dominion?"

"That’s right." Su Wanjun nodded, "I’ve come to understand that the power of fate is beyond my comprehension, so I have decided to leave. But before I go, I would like to have a chat with you, my young friend."
