The Prodigies War-Chapter 2777 Dao Mirror Law

Origin Emptiness Pavilion. Entrance to the Extreme Dao Battlefield.

From the side, Dugu Yong explained in a jovial tone, "After entering, one will be stuck inside for at least half a year. Within that period, one cannot leave even if one is seriously injured."

Lin Xun’s arrival had immediately alerted the deputy pavilion master. Hence why he had personally led Lin Xun to the entrance of the Extreme Dao Battlefield. This made Lin Xun feel somewhat pampered by his elders.

When he first joined the Origin Sect, it had been a tall task even to meet a bigwig at the level of deputy pavilion master, let alone the current situation where he was being warmly received by such a high status person.

"Six months huh..." Lin Xun didn’t ponder for an overly long period.

Dugu Yong said, "If you’re ready, you can go in now."

"Thanks for the guidance, Elder."

Lin Xun cupped his fists in respect before walking straight into the entrance.

Omm~

Rain-like light rippled as he disappeared.

"Youran, what brings you here?" At this moment, Dugu Yong turned around and saw a silhouette approaching from a far. The transcendent beauty in a long green dress was naturally Dugu Youran.

She smiled and replied, "Can't I come to see you?"

Dugu Yong chuckled as he wiggled his finger at her. "Your mouth says one thing but your heart says another."

Dugu Youran blinked her limpid eyes and said, "What do you mean, Ancestor Uncle? Why can’t I understand what you’re saying?"

"Come on, do you think I can’t see what’s on your mind?" Dugu Yong laughed. "Your Ancestor Uncle merely wants to tell you that the weight on Lin Xun’s shoulders are far too heavy, and he’s destined to experience extraordinary storms on his path. If you truly wish to be with him, you must understand that you’ll also have to face all sorts of trials in the future."

Dugu Youran's pretty face turned red as a tomato as she spat out, "Ancestor Uncle, when did I say I want to be with him? I...only think of him as a friend."

"Just friends?" A complicated expression arose in Dugu Yong's eyes.

Dugu Youran lowered her head and mumbled, "Ancestor Uncle, don’t poke your nose into my affairs."

Dugu Yong felt an inexplicable sense of pity at the sight of her and said, "Youran, it's good for you to decide things for yourself. Your Ancestor Uncle has only one request, don’t do anything that will make you feel aggrieved."

Dugu Youran raised her head and said with a bright smile, "Ancestor Uncle, I'm not the kind of person who would do that to myself."

"That's good." Dugu Yong laughed loudly, only to add another sentence in his heart. I hope...you can.

......

A month hurriedly rushed past.

The Extreme Dao Battlefield.

Under the dreary dome of the sky, Lin Xun and another Lin Xun clashed fiercely, fighting until the sky and land were flipped and the sun and moon lost their light. It was a very strange scene.

If anyone else saw these two Lin Xun’s locked in battle, they likely wouldn’t be able to tell who was the real one. Moreover, although the combat styles and dao powers used by the two were different, their battle strength was nearly equal!

This was quite frightening. After all, Lin Xun had already set foot on the Eternal Supremacy Path. Although his cultivation was at the mid Heavenly Longevity Stage, he was already invincible in this realm. Hence, it was inconceivable for an opponent to be as strong as him!

"Die!”

With a sudden howl, Lin Xun ruthlessly descended like a raging chaotic furnace.

Bang!

The opponent violently jerked backward, and exploded into a rain of obscure law light that sprinkled across the sky. Lin Xun deeply exhaled a breath of turbid air, feeling a wave of exhaustion wash over him.

The battle had lasted more than four hours, and he had been at peak output nearly every moment of the ordeal. At this juncture, almost all of his cultivation had been spent. Without delay, he landed on the ground, sat down, took out a Sun Moon Immortal Pill, and began to recover his cultivation at full speed.

Silence swirled across the area. The only movements present were Lin Xun’s rumbling aura and the divine radiance flowing around him. Over the past month, he had fought a total of fourteen times. Each opponent was formed from the law power of this land.

The name of the law was Dao Mirror. It was an extremely unimaginable power which could manifest a mirror image of himself. Moreover, the opponent’s battle strength changed each time.

To explain in terms of numbers, if Lin Xun’s maximum battle strength when defeating an opponent was one, then the next opponent’s battle strength would become one. In other words, to defeat the next opponent who would arrive one day later, he needed to exhaust every possible means to tap into his potential and raise his battle strength from one to two.

This was the Extreme Dao Battlefield. Each battle forced you to dig out your potential, because only by doing so would you have a chance to defeat your next opponent.

After overcoming an opponent, you would be gifted with one day of rest. Once that grace period was over, a new opponent would be born from the Dao Mirror Law.

Lin Xun didn't know what would happen if he lost the battle, because he had never lost in the fourteen consecutive battles since he entered the Extreme Dao Battlefield. In other words, he had managed to draw out more of his potential with each victory, making him a little stronger each bout!

By now, a full month had passed, and even Lin Xun had noticed the remarkable change in his strength. The most obvious part was his cultivation, which had been honed to the perfect mid Heavenly Longevity Stage!

"At this rate, my cultivation should advance in less than three months."

He probed the subtle changes in his power while meditating. Each battle was basically a fight against oneself, and the intensity was so high that even Lin Xun would find himself suppressed and injured at times.

At the same time, it was also excellent training. By allowing oneself to be tempered to the extreme in battle, one could tap into even greater potential, allowing one’s strength to transform completely!

"My cultivation and physical ability can no longer be improved. To defeat the next opponent, I have no choice but to upgrade my Immortal law power..."

Lin Xun didn't dare to waste a single moment, devoting every fiber of his being into digging out more of his potential. There were only twenty four hours in a day.

For Lin Xun, each day was akin to an extreme cultivation session where he couldn’t afford any distractions or waste a single second. It felt incredibly pressurizing. Anyone else would have likely long crumbled under such pressure.

However, he gladly endured the hardships. After all, there was simply nothing more pleasing than feeling your strength evolve over and over again.

A day soon passed. A peculiar ripple spread between heaven and earth as a figure that resembled Lin Xun condensed in the void. The aura emanating from him was equal in strength to Lin Xun from the previous battle!

This was the crazy part of the Extreme Dao Battlefield. The opponent's combat strength would also increase as one’s strength grew. The only difference was that the cultivator had one day to refine themselves, dig out their potential, and raise their cultivation to gain an advantage in the next battle.

It was worth mentioning that it was impossible to use any external items in the Extreme Dao Battlefield, including Immortal weapons.

Swish!

As soon as the mirror image Lin Xun appeared, he rushed forth to meet the original. Lin Xun, who was still meditating, immediately opened his eyes and leaped up to meet the newly created opponent.

......

Time hurriedly flowed past.

In the Extreme Dao Battlefield, Lin Xun was left drenched in blood after a grueling fight. His clothes were also in tatters and his hair was a mess. He had been wounded, and it was no small injury!

This time, his opponent’s strength had been on the same level as his own, making the battle an exceedingly hard-fought struggle. In the end, it was only after glimpsing some enlightenment during the battle that Lin Xun finally managed to seize an opening and ruthlessly suppress the opponent. Otherwise, he didn’t know how long the battle would have persisted.

Phew~

Deeply exhaling, he landed on the ground again. He retrieved a jade bottle and poured a dozen Sun Moon Immortal Pills into his mouth before he sat down again to meditate.

Rumble!

After less than an hour, the aura around him rumbled loudly as a terrifying pressure rose from him and shot upwards, stirring the sky above. His injuries had healed and disappeared at an incredible speed. He now glowed with an unprecedented radiance as if he had undergone some kind of metamorphosis.

Lin Xun's cultivation had broken through the barrier, entering the advanced Heavenly Longevity Stage in one fell swoop! This had taken only three months!

Before entering the Extreme Dao Battlefield, Xuan Feiling had speculated that Lin Xun would ascend to the advanced Heavenly Longevity Stage within a year. Who knew how he would feel if he witnessed this scene?

Lin Xun greedily felt the astonishing changes in his body, his heart filled with joy and satisfaction. It had been less than a year since he first set foot in the Heavenly Longevity Stage. It was absolutely shocking to think he had reached the advanced stage so soon after.

For ordinary Immortal experts, it was completely normal to see no improvement in their cultivation for ten thousand years. Such a contrast showed just how insanely fast Lin Xun was progressing.

One day later, a new reflection of Lin Xun appeared. Although his presence was astonishing, he was at best comparable to Lin Xun before the breakthrough and was soon slain.

"Since I’ll be stuck in the Extreme Dao Battlefield for at least half a year, I should make full use of the remaining three months."

Lin Xun made a decision. According to the rules, he had to fight for at least half a year in the Extreme Dao Battlefield, although there was no limit to how long he could stay.

If not for the Fortune Dominion, he would have genuinely wanted to continue on in the Extreme Dao Battlefield.

Six months later, at the entrance to the Extreme Dao Battlefield, Xuan Feiling was already waiting here. He was certain that Lin Xun would not linger in the Extreme Dao Battlefield a single day more than necessary.

"I wonder if he managed to achieve a cultivation breakthrough..."

While pondering, an obscure fluctuation rippled from the entrance to the Extreme Dao Battlefield as a figure stepped out. Who else could it be but Lin Xun? However, Xuan Feiling’s eyes couldn’t help but narrow when he saw him.

Compared to half a year ago, Lin Xun seemed to have transformed into a completely different person. Wisps of extremely faint killing intent lingered around him, and an oppressive murderous pressure seemed to spread each time he opened or closed his eyes.

It was as if a peerless sword had been refined a thousand times over. Although its sharpness was being thoroughly suppressed, the aura that leaked out could still shake the world! However, even that faint wisp of killing intent soon disappeared.

Lin Xun’s aura appeared calm and natural, with no trace of that uncomfortable sharpness from before. Xuan Feiling's eyes gleamed resplendently.
