The Prodigies War-Chapter 2773 The Blade of Time Returns

Amidst the falling specks of light, Lin Xun stood in the air like a banished immortal. Every gaze in the area was filled with shock.

Yu Fengzi was the most unfathomable Heavenly Longevity Stage Immortal of the Zen Sect. Despite that, the Tranquil Heart Lotus World formed from the fusion of his talent, cultivation, and law power had been broken!

The impact of such a revelation was simply too much. The bigwigs who had been excitedly looking forward to Lin Xun's cultivation being severed felt their chests turn stuffy as their faces filled with gloom.

On the other hand, the rest of the Origin Sect was in high spirits. Regardless of how powerful the Tranquil Heart Lotus World was, Lin Xun had broken out in the end!

Xuan Feiling, Dugu Yong, and Fang Daoping heaved a sigh of relief before they turned to each other and grinned. Lin Xun's performance had also thoroughly impressed them.

"Do you concede?"

In the arena, Lin Xun gazed at Yu Fengzi. While trapped in the Tranquil Heart Lotus World, through attacking the forty-nine worlds, Lin Xun grew to understand Yu Fengzi's true attainments in the dao.

Even he had to admit that Yu Fengzi was an exceedingly powerful opponent, and was much stronger than the likes of Xing Jun and Jing Qingjia. Unfortunately, Yu Fengzi had encountered him.

The greatest danger of the Tranquil Heart Lotus World was one's heart state, which was a battlefield Lin Xun was least afraid of. Yu Fengzi was silent for a moment before he suddenly lifted his gaze and let out a long sigh.

"I understand now. The number of grand daos isn’t determined by the heavens. In the past, I claimed to have deduced the limits of all ancient and modern techniques, and comprehended the secret of the one that escaped, believing it to be the supreme path. However, it now appears that the supreme path was never so. Never fixed, never permanent, never limited..."

As he murmured, the frustration and disappointment in his eyes disappeared. Now clear and calm, a mysterious aura surged from his body. It was as if he had broken some kind of shackle, causing him to exude an air of transcendence.

Buddha Venerable Shiye's eyes lit up and he clapped his hands in praise. "Awakening enlightenment and casting aside one’s restraints. How wonderful!"

"He seems to have broken past the barrier in his heart!"

The bigwigs on the viewing platform and the elders of the Origin Cult couldn’t stop their hearts from stirring at this moment. They had all sensed the change in Yu Fengzi's aura. What a terrifying comprehension ability!

He was defeated by Lin Xun in the battle between the strongest paths, yet no problems had emerged in his heart state. Instead, he used the battle to gain enlightenment. Who wouldn't be surprised by this?

The crowd’s expressions were colored with amazement when they looked at Yu Fengzi again. As expected of the Zen Sect’s Heavenly Longevity Stage’s chief sect protector!

Lin Xun raised his eyebrows and remarked, "Interesting."

Yu Fengzi pressed his hands together and smiled faintly like a smiling Buddha who had gained enlightenment while picking flowers. He said, "I have to thank Brother Lin for helping me break through my limits and comprehend the true secrets of the supreme."

Lin Xun laughed. "How are you going to thank me then?"

"We should, of course, continue the battle and decide things once and for all."

Yu Fengzi's expression was as calm as ever. The entire place was silent.

Numerous people from the Origin Sect were furious, feeling that he was far too tactless. He had clearly lost, yet had somehow gained enlightenment in defeat. If he really wanted to thank Lin Xun, he should just leave right now.

However, he still wanted to compete! Did he think he would be able to suppress Lin Xun after gaining enlightenment?

Shiye and the other bigwigs on the viewing platform couldn't help but grow excited. A light had finally appeared at the end of the tunnel. Even they hadn’t expected that there would be a chance to turn things around.

Xuan Feiling, Dugu Yong, and Fang Daoping couldn't help but frown. Yu Fengzi was a truly troublesome opponent!

Lin Xun withdrew his smile and said, "Although your marvelous Tranquil Heart Lotus World has the ability to sever cultivation, it could do nothing to me. What can you fight me with now?"

"I’ll naturally still use the Tranquil Heart Lotus World." Yu Fengzi softly said, "However, it will be completely different from before. I hope Dao Friend Lin will be careful and please admit defeat if you can’t endure."

Yu Fengzi appeared extremely confident. The enlightenment seemed to have transformed him into a different person. Everyone from the Origin Sect began to feel uncomfortable.

Shiye and the other bigwigs didn’t hold back with their admiration. After all, this was a happy surprise for them.

With a calm expression, Lin Xun said, "Still being stubborn. Yu Fengzi, your enlightenment might end up becoming a big disaster for you. I’ll give you another chance. It’s not too late to admit defeat now."

"Hmph!”

Countless bigwigs coldly snorted upon hearing this, thinking that Lin Xun was now lacking in confidence and was trying to scare the opponent off. It felt ridiculous to them.

Buddha Venerable Shiye felt especially so, and couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh. Although he didn't say anything, his attitude made everyone realize that he was very disdainful of Lin Xun's warning!

Yu Fengzi didn’t argue back but calmly said, "Dao Friend Lin, please guide me."

Omm!

He pressed his hands together and a beautiful wheel-shaped lotus flower condensed again, emitting an obscure and mysterious aura.

Tranquil Heart Lotus World!

Compared to before, there was an additional sensation of dustlessness and perfection.

"Do you think that this tiny Tranquil Heart Lotus World can still trap me? Fine then, I'll show you my technique."

Lin Xun eyes turned impossibly deep as an icy gleam surged in their black depths. He reached out and pointed. Wisps of illusory spacetime light quietly condensed at his fingertip, turning into a sharp flickering crystalline light.

He lightly slashed at the air.

Swish!

A sharp blade shot forth and seemed to cut through even spacetime itself. Everything in its wake rapidly deteriorated and crumbled. Everyone felt a stabbing pain in their eyes, and even the bigwigs were no exception.

It was as if the laws of time were thrown into utter chaos and countless years had passed in an instant.

When the strange phenomenon finally faded...

In the arena, Lin Xun still stood at the same spot. Opposite him, Yu Fengzi still maintained the posture of placing his hands together as the beautiful lotus continued to bloom. It was as if everything that had happened was merely an illusion.

Many people were confused. What had happened earlier? Even the Immortal and Nirvana Spirit level bigwigs seemed uncertain, although some of them seemed to have vaguely guessed something.

On the other hand, the older experts such as the Zen Sect's Buddha Venerable Shiye, the Shaman Sect's Earth Shaman Xiong Tu, the Spirit Sect's Spirit Venerable Qing Yun, and the Origin Sect's elders appeared to be in shock. Their expressions changed indeterminately, unable to remain calm.

Amidst the deathly silence, Lin Xun nonchalantly said, "I did say that this will be a big disaster for you."

As his voice rang out—Bang!

Under countless gazes, the colorful lotus flower wilted in an instant and exploded into dust. If this scene was shocking, what happened next was utterly terrifying!

Dressed in a snow-white monk robe, Yu Fengzi’s appearance suddenly began to change as if he was becoming countless years younger. He transformed into a short, scrawny youngster with innocent eyes as his robe seemed to widen around him.

The most terrifying part, however, was that his cultivation seemed to have been severed; abruptly falling from the Immortal Heavenly Longevity Stage to the Emperor Stage, to the Quasi-Emperor Stage, to the Saint Stage, and the Longevity Tribulation Stage...

Only after reaching the Spirit Sea Stage of the five lesser cultivation realms did his cultivation finally begin to stabilize!

It was complete silence outside the arena. Everyone was in complete shock. Many people felt their hair stand on end as their eyes turned into saucers. The bizarre transformation was simply the most terrifying thing in the world to people like them, making them shiver as if they had fallen into an ice cave.

"The...Blade...of...Time!" Buddha Venerable Shiye shot to his feet with a stormy expression. His voice was shaking with uncontrollable anger as if he had squeezed it out from his chest.

"Time reversal to strip away one’s cultivation! The Omega Lord’s most powerful innate talent ability!"

"Damnit!"

"That taboo ability has appeared again..."

Bigwigs from the Shaman Sect and the Ten Immortal Giants revealed terrifying, dark, and frosty expressions. Their eyes were filled with rage and a sliver of almost undetectable fear! Older cultivators like them naturally knew that Luo Tongtian had only dared to challenge the Ten Immortal Giants because of this taboo ability.

After countless years, that terrible innate talent ability had once again appeared in the world, and was displayed by a disciple of Fangchun Mountain, Lin Xun. How could they not be alarmed and angry?

At this moment, Fu Wenli, Qi Xiaoyun, Chi Wen, and the other bigwigs hostile to Lin Xun felt their hearts churn wildly as waves of anger and hatred rose within them.

A long time ago, Luo Tongtian used the Blade of Time to severely injure many bigwigs from the Eighth Heaven Domain, stripping them of their cultivation and causing mass fear and panic. How could they ever forget that?

However, they never imagined that Lin Xun would have also awakened and inherited that taboo ability! Lin Xun's Blade of Time had returned Yu Fengzi's age and cultivation to his youth. Only his memory and wisdom remained unchanged. However, it was already horrifying enough to make anyone shudder!

Just imagine, the most dazzling Heavenly Longevity Immortal expert of the Zen Sect, a natural born Buddha with the qualifications to become the Present Age Buddha, had lost all of his cultivation in an instant and returned to the time when he had just stepped on the path of cultivation. How frightening would that be?

The hearts of Xuan Feiling, Dugu Yong, Fang Daoping, and the others also violently shuddered. Their expressions soon changed slightly as they realized that Lin Xun’s attack had basically completely ruined Yu Fengzi.

Losing a natural born Buddha like Yu Fengzi was an immeasurably huge blow to the Zen Sect. It was very likely that they would go all out to take revenge on Lin Xun! Xuan Feiling and the others exchanged a look and began to grow vigilant, paying extra attention to the movements of Buddha Venerable Shiye and the other Zen Sect bigwigs.

Elsewhere, the bigwigs and disciples of the Origin Sect finally understood what Lin Xun had meant by ‘disaster,’ and couldn’t help but be speechless.

Previously, Yu Fengzi had attacked with the Tranquil Heart Lotus World to sever Lin Xun cultivation. Now, Lin Xun had returned the favor and severed Yu Fengzi's cultivation to his youth! What was this if not a disaster to him?

In the arena, the teenage Yu Fengzi, still in the posture of placing his hands together, was completely motionless as if he had lost consciousness due to the dreadful blow. It was a long time before he finally raised his head and looked at Lin Xun, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something.

In the end, however, he coughed up a mouthful of bright red blood. His face abruptly turned ashen as he crumpled to the ground. What a truly miserable and inconsolable loss!
