The Prodigies War

Chapter 3165 Stepping Through the Heavenly Gate

Above the sky, as Lin Xun released his cultivation without reservation, a mysterious origin power surged forth from the depths of the void. It cascaded down upon him like a radiant storm, drenching him in a resplendent rain of light. The moment it touched him, he understood. This was a Chaos Dao Fruit.

The so-called Chaos Dao Fruit was an innate Chaos Principle born from within the All-Wonder Dominion. It was wondrous beyond measure. The more one refined, the more formidable one’s cultivation in the Immeasurable Realm became, and the closer one drew to ultimate transcendence.

However, almost at once, Lin Xun sensed something was amiss. The Chaos Dao Fruit he had obtained was different. Within it was no innate law. Instead, what it contained was true primal chaos originating from the All-Wonder Dominion itself!

Why was it called a ‘Dao Fruit’? Because those innate laws were born from the primal chaos origin, like fruit borne upon a tree. However, what Lin Xun was now refining was not the fruit. It was the origin power that gave birth to the fruit!

The realization struck him like thunder.

The primal chaos origin of the All-Wonder Dominion can give birth to a Chaos Dao Fruit. That is no different from creating a great dao. And now that I can refine such an origin power...Doesn’t that mean that, so long as I grasp its mysteries, I too could create a Chaos Dao Fruit?

The thought alone made Lin Xun’s heart surge. He could no longer remain calm. Not long ago, he had contemplated the path of creating a dao that had never before existed in this world. He had reasoned that only by seeking out the origin power of the All-Wonder Dominion could he hope to find an answer and determine whether such a path was truly possible.

Now, the very primal chaos origin power he had drawn forth might well be the proof he sought.

Drawing a slow breath, Lin Xun steadied his thoughts. He seated himself cross-legged in the void and quietly immersed his mind in the ceaseless surge of primal chaos origin power. Gradually, waves of indescribable and profound insights arose within him.

Each of those insights touched upon the hidden origins and deepest secrets of Chaos Principles. They were obscure beyond measure. With Lin Xun’s current level of comprehension, though he could perceive them, he could not yet fully digest their mysteries.

Only after the time it took for an incense stick to burn...

Lin Xun finally completed the refinement of that primal chaos origin power. When he opened his eyes from meditation, his cultivation had undergone a drastic transformation.

His dao path had always been centered upon the profound essence of Nirvana, fusing the myriad daos into a single furnace. Long ago, he had already grasped the power of ‘all daos returning to one, and from one giving rise to all.’

Now, as he refined this primal chaos origin power, his Nirvana essence underwent a new transformation. As the Nirvana essence transformed, so too did his entire dao path...

Even Lin Xun himself had never imagined that after months of great dao contests within the Mortal Transformation Zone, the ultimate opportunity awaiting him would be so extraordinary. Compared to before, although his cultivation still remained at the advanced Immeasurable Realm, the foundation of his dao had already surpassed that of an Immeasurable Dao Lord!

One must understand that an Immeasurable Dao Lord was already an existence standing closest to the peak of the Immeasurable Realm. Of note, Lin Xun, at his present level, had already obtained a foundation that surpassed that threshold. From this alone, one could imagine just how immense the transformation brought about by this opportunity truly was.

Moreover, it was at this very moment that Lin Xun finally dared to conclude that the power of ‘creating a dao’ truly existed, and that it lay hidden within the origin power of the All-Wonder Dominion itself!

Alpha Origin, Chen Xi, and that swordsman...they must have understood this long ago. With my current cultivation, if I were to stand before any one of them, I likely wouldn’t even be qualified to contend. But there’s no need to rush. This is only the Mortal Transformation Zone. There will be plenty of opportunities ahead to obtain more primal chaos origin power.

After a moment of quiet reflection, Lin Xun rose to his feet and cast his gaze across the world. In that instant, scenes from every corner of the Mortal Transformation Zone unfolded within his mind.

After refining the primal chaos origin power, he felt himself become one with the Mortal Transformation Zone. It was as though he had turned into an incarnation of this world itself. Every ripple of wind, every shift of qi, every subtle movement across heaven and earth lay clearly within his perception.

“Esteemed Seniors, I shall take my leave. When we meet again in the future, I will certainly invite you all to share a drink.” Lin Xun did not speak aloud, but his voice resounded directly within the hearts of the old monsters scattered throughout the Mortal Transformation Zone, such as Xing Jianxia, Fu Nanli, and Ren Futian.

They were stunned for a moment. Then, almost in unison, they cupped their hands toward the heavens. “Take care, young friend!”

Above the heavens, Lin Xun smiled and stepped forward. With that single stride, a radiant gate surged into being before him. The moment he crossed its threshold, his figure vanished without a trace.

However, within that boundless void beyond the sky, his dao manifestation remained.

Clad in moon-white robes, his figure was tall and dignified. It stood like a sovereign presiding over the ages. At his feet revolved the phantom realms of the three dao dominions, Return Dominion, Kunlun Dominion, and Fortune Dominion. Above his head, a lotus-shaped dao diagram embodying Nirvana swirled in misty radiance, unveiling the profound mysteries of the supreme great dao.

In the distance, there was another hazy phantom, existing alongside the other three dao dominions, exuding the primordial aura of the All-Wonder Dominion. It was far too indistinct and so blurred that it seemed illusionary.

Not far from Lin Xun’s dao manifestations stood the dao manifestations of Chen Xi, Alpha Origin, and the mysterious swordsman. The three supreme figures existed side by side, silent and eternal, each radiating an unparalleled majesty.

Naturally, such a scene was unseen by nearly all Immeasurable Realm cultivators in the world. Only if, someday in the distant future, someone were to transcend the Heavenly Cycle Dao Laws in great dao contests might they gain the chance to behold this scene.

On that very day, the entire Mortal Transformation Zone was thrown into upheaval. In a mere ten months, Lin Xun had fought more than eight hundred battles. He swept through the five dao manifestations jointly ranked first, and in the end, rose beyond the Heavenly Cycle Dao Laws themselves! This was nothing short of an unprecedented miracle!

What made it all the more astonishing was that, according to legend, when Alpha Origin Master once transcended the Heavenly Cycle Dao Laws, he remained trapped within the Mortal Transformation Zone for a full hundred years. Only after unraveling its deepest mysteries did he finally cause the heavenly gate to open and depart.

Now, Lin Xun encountered no hindrance whatsoever. On the very day he transcended the Heavenly Cycle Dao Laws, he soared away without obstruction! Such a contrast was impossible to ignore, and inevitably, comparisons arose in the hearts of many.

Of course, everyone also understood that such comparisons held little true meaning. After all, Lin Xun was being measured against the Alpha Origin Master of long ago.

The Alpha Origin Master of today stood as an unparalleled supreme existence within the All-Wonder Dominion. The power under his command was acknowledged as the strongest force in the entire All-Wonder Dominion!

......

The events in the Mortal Transformation Zone reached the ears of the Nine Heavenly Mandate Dao Lords from the Nine Departments of Alpha Origin with astonishing speed. When the news arrived, these nine beings, each standing at the level of an Immeasurable Dao Lord, were shaken to their core.

Lin Xun had transcended the Heavenly Cycle Dao Laws of the Mortal Transformation Zone! What did that signify? Did it not mean that his foundation was now no less than their master’s had been when he left behind his dao manifestation in the Mortal Transformation Zone?

“Lin Xun has already broken through the first sky zone of the nine sky zones in the Realm of All Spirits.” Someone said gravely. “You have all seen how heaven-defying this boy’s cultivation is.”

“We cannot delay any longer. If we wait until he reaches the ninth sky zone, the Xuanhuang Zone, it will already be too late!” Qing Yangzi, Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord of the Kun Department spoke, his expression dark and resolute.

He had spoken similar words when Lin Xun first entered the Mortal Transformation Zone. At the time, the other eight Heavenly Mandate Dao Lords had dismissed his caution.

Now, after hearing of Lin Xun’s astonishing feat and seeing Qing Yangzi’s unyielding gaze, the other eight Heavenly Mandate Dao Lords nodded one after another. They understood the severity of the matter.

“There will be no opportunity in the second sky zone, the Calamitous Zone,” Pei Tu, Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord of the Qian Department, said in a low voice. “If we were to act, it must be from the third sky zone, the Dark Zone.”

His gaze shifted toward Kuhe, Heavenly Mandate Dao Lord of the Xun Department. “Kuhe, within the Dark Zone, there are numerous experts under your Xun Department. Moreover, it is shrouded in layers of mist, cutting off all divine sense. Once Lin Xun enters it, he will be no different from a blind man. That will be your opportunity.”

Kuhe nodded calmly. “I will do my best.”

After a brief pause, he swept his gaze across the other Heavenly Mandate Dao Lords. “The forces under your respective commands are positioned between the fourth and eighth sky zones. If by chance Lin Xun survives and manages to enter any one of your domains, none of you must hesitate.”

A few of the Heavenly Mandate Dao Lords’ eyes flickered with cold light. One after another, they nodded in agreement.

However, someone frowned and said, “When Miss first informed us about Lin Xun, she never instructed us to intercept or kill him. If we act on our own now, would that not be overstepping our bounds?” The one who spoke was Tian Shu, Heavenly Mandate Lord of the Zhen Department.

“Miss called him a variable, and Master himself showed great interest in him. Is that not instruction enough?” Qing Yangzi said coldly, “Tian Shu, do not forget who granted us our fortune back then, and who brought us into the All-Wonder Dominion to cultivate. Without Master, you would have perished in the Sea of ​​Fate dozens of epochs ago!”

Tian Shu’s expression shifted. “I would never defy Master’s decree, but the problem is that Master is currently trapped, and Miss remains by his side. With no command issued, if we act on our own and something unforeseen occurs...”

His voice trailed off. He noticed the icy gazes directed at him from every side. A wry smile tugged at his lips. “Very well, I will join you. We act together.”

Pei Tu’s voice softened. “With a formidable enemy before us, we must stand united. Tian Shu, we are all within the Realm of All Mysteries and cannot personally descend to the Realm of All Spirits. Even if some unforeseen mishap occurs, it will not threaten the nine of us. Under such circumstances, why not test Lin Xun with the strength of our nine departments?”

He paused, then let out a cold sneer, “Besides, why did Master establish the Nine Alpha Origin Departments in the first place? Were we not meant to serve him and act on his behalf? If you choose to remain idle, that would be nothing less than open disrespect! And forget Master, even Ape Ancestor and Miss would be the first to refuse you mercy!”

Tian Shu’s stiffened, his expression shifting once more. After a long breath, he said, quietly, “I understand what must be done. I will not hold any of you back.”

The other Heavenly Mandate Dao Lords exchanged glances and nodded. None of them noticed that, while this discussion unfolded, an old ape stood outside the great hall. Two swords were strapped across his back. He remained utterly silent.
