The Prodigies War - Chapter 211 Wind Engulfs Clouds

Xiao Jinyu ()11-14 minutes 24.07.2022

As Lin Xun sprinted in the rain and dark, he felt like he had returned to Blood Kill Camp. It was like practical training to break a siege.

Not only were the environment and conditions very poor, but there were also an unknown number of enemies. He felt as though he would encounter enemy attacks no matter which direction he ran to.

However, the dangerous atmosphere set Lin Xuns blood leaping around his body. He was like a soldier returning to the battlefield after a long time. Slaughter, gunpowder and blood were all smells he was familiar with from Blood Kill Camp.

Only then did Lin Xun realize that his one year of training in Blood Kill Camp had greatly impacted him without him knowing.

At least, he wasnt afraid or nervous in the face of danger anymore.

Before long, Lin Xun detected a dozen cultivators with his spirit sense.

The cultivators were lying in ambush on both sides of a street thousands of feet away. Some hid in the eaves, some hid in the corner of alleys and some stood right in the center of the street. But each one wore chilling and murderous looks, as though ready for battle.

The torrential rain and dark night formed a natural cover for them, muting their scent and blurring their figures.

However, the cover was just like a thin veil to Lin Xun. His sharp spirit sense power effortlessly tore it apart and presented the true scene in detail to his mind.

However, he didnt choose to stop or retreat. Instead, he continued to run at the same speed and rhythm.

The only difference was that his jet-black eyes seemed deeper and inadvertently flashed a glint of murderous intent.

The Storm Grinder in his body suddenly sped up its rotation, producing roars resembling raging waves.

If it was daytime, one would distinctly see spirals of clear glass-like azure mist rising from his body.

It was a phenomenon produced only when a cultivators spirit dipper power had reached the pinnacle of pure and solid state!

The target has appeared!

The dozen of cultivators lying in ambush on the street narrowed their eyes as a slim figure emerged in their minds like a bolt of lightning.

They became more alert and their killing intent intensified; they were ready to launch an attack and kill.

In particular, the two cultivators standing in the center of the street raised their swords high up and pointed into the distance. Excitement and killing intent crossed their faces.

The person who kills the target will receive a reward of one thousand gold coins!

They had been waiting for such a good opportunity for a long time. How would they allow their target to escape now that he had finally appeared?

The torrential rain pelted the solid ground like a drum beat and created an austere and tense atmosphere.

Their target was getting closer and closer, like a beast about to throw itself into a net.

The thin man standing in the center of the long street couldnt help but lick his lips as palpable killing intent burst forth from his eyes.

The thin man could no longer contain his murderous thoughts when their target was a dozen feet away. He inhaled deeply and was about to roar out loud.

It was then that an earth-shaking noise boomed out like a growing rumble of thunder. The thin man shuddered as an unprecedented fear shrouded his heart. The words that had come to the tip of his tongue wouldnt come forth and he couldnt utter a sound.

This was because the noise wasnt real thunder. Rather, it came from their targets body.

Rumble

Then, a terrifying storm vortex suddenly emerged from their targets body and rose into the sky. It instantly engulfed the torrential downpour and produced deafening roars.

They looked over and saw that their target seemed to have vanished. Only a dozen-foot-tall rain-wrapped storm vortex was left. It seemed to contain immeasurably terrifying power!

What is that?

Not only was the thin man terrified, but the cultivators lying in ambush on the street also trembled uncontrollably, their expressions changing dramatically.

An indescribable wave of danger spread to every corner of their bodies like a tide, almost drowning them.

This is bad! Attack! Quickly attack!

The thin man in the middle of the street roared, only for the terrifying storm to drown out his voice.

Rumble!

At that moment, like a storm passing through a territory, a wave of unimaginably violent power swept across the street. It instantly crushed the air and pulverized the ground to dust.

The drops of rain that shot out from the storm were like incomparably sharp arrows fired in all directions.

Pu

In an instant, they pierced holes into the nearby buildings. Screams and cries of panic like the mournful wails of ghosts echoed throughout the dark night.

Bang!

The thin man in the middle of the street did everything he could to defend himself, but his defense was quickly torn apart like paper. His skin and flesh were mangled beyond recognition as if he had been slashed thousands of times before he collapsed on the ground.

His two comrades inevitably suffered the same treatment.

Upon a closer look, one would see that the drops of rain had also shot through the cultivators hiding under the eaves, roofs and alleys, and they had all silently collapsed on the ground.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye!

By the time the storm passed, not a blade of grass remained. It was like the autumn wind had swept away the fallen leaves!

The cultivators likely didnt know how their enemy achieved such a feat or why the storm vortex was so terrifying before they died.

Naturally, Lin Xun had no chance of telling them that it was the power of the Storm Grinder, a power completely different from that of the majority of first-grade aeth power reservoirs!

Of course, this was also Lin Xuns first time testing the true power of the human dipper stage after breakthrough. His previous duel with Yuan Shu and Qi Yunxiao couldnt be considered real battles and he didnt have the opportunity to display such powers.

The earthshaking power that Lin Xun demonstrated also astonished himself. It helped him gain a better understanding of the special aeth power reservoir that he possessed.

Why did Bai Lingxi, Zhao Yin, Li Duxing and the other heaven-blessed children enter Blood Kill Camp?

Was it not to open up the most outstanding aeth power reservoir in the Dipper Transformation Lake?

This alone showed how important it was to possess a top grade aeth power reservoir in the Spirit Dipper Stage!

However, the aeth power reservoirs of ordinary cultivators in the world naturally couldnt be compared to Lin Xuns Storm Grinder.

For example, the cultivators from the various major forces in Haze City likely had reached the human dipper stage many years ago, yet could their cultivation, foundation or aeth power reservoirs be compared to Lin Xuns?

Emotionless, Lin Xun continued to run forward.

If he wanted to completely wipe out the enemies, he first had to break through their siege. Only then would his situation and identity change. He would no longer be the prey but the hunter. Additionally, he could utilize the different terrain and environment to attack and assassinate the enemies!

Lin Xun was certain that he still hadnt broken through the siege because the true masters had still yet to appear. According to the intelligence he had received, quite a few of the cultivators dispatched to deal with him were fierce characters at the earth dipper cultivation stage.

For example, Chang Henshui and Lu Zhong, who worked for Jadelight Pavilion, were such fierce characters.

Not long after Lin Xun left, a group of cultivators were trying to catch up to him, but a chill ran down their spine when they saw the devastated state of the street.

Even the torrential downpour couldnt completely erase the bloodstains on the ground. Bodies were scattered in different ways in different places after their tragic deaths. The alleys, streets and houses were riddled with holes and were severely damaged beyond recognition. It looked like a giant invisible hand had crushed them.

Many cultivators abruptly halted and inhaled sharply upon seeing such a chilling scene.

What sort of terrifying power can cause such devastation?

People with sharp eyes could tell that their comrades were killed in an instant from the signs and traces left on the scene!

They all stared aghast at the state of the street, their hair standing on ends. For the first time, they finally realized that the enemy who defeated Yuan Shu and Qi Yunxiao wasnt as ordinary as they had thought.

In other words, they had been too careless!

They had thought that they could easily deal with a teenager at the human dipper stage given the power and forces that they had dispatched. Who would have thought that their target would possess such terrifying strength!?

Many people increased their vigilance and became much more careful and cautious. They suddenly found that the night felt unusually long

While some cultivators were frozen with shock, Lin Xun encountered an opponent for the first time on the rainy night.

It was an amiable middle-aged man exuding a sense of calm like a mountain. As he clasped a dark golden spear, he released a wave of tyrannical spirit dipper qi from his body like a courageous warrior on the battlefield.

Unlike that of human dipper cultivators, the mans spirit dipper qi around his body was incredibly strong, almost tangible, and seemed to be in harmony with the earth.

It was an aura unique to only Earth Dipper cultivators!

Die!

The amiable middle-aged man immediately showed his fierce battle experience when he saw Lin Xun. He leapt across the sky and swung the dark golden spear like an armored cavalryfierce, direct and ruthless.

The dark gold spear disturbed the air flow as it cut through the air. Wrapped in a dazzling golden glow and contained threatening power, it resembled a shaft of golden light from beyond the earth.

Clang

Caught off guard, Lin Xun could only bring his black blade up to block the attack. His black blade collided with the dark gold spear, producing a deafening clang.

It was akin to a clash between two tremendous mountains. Lin Xuns hand went numb from the force and his body swayed side to side. He felt a chill in his heart.

Is this the power of the Earth Dipper Stage?

Compared to Lin Xun, the amiable looking middle-aged man was even more aghast. He knew his attack could have killed most human dipper cultivators yet the teenager before him not only managed to block his attack but also appeared unscathed!

Die!

Although shocked, the middle-aged man instantly followed up with another attack. He swung his spear across the air without any hesitation.

Rumble

The surrounding space boomed like it was being crushed and on the verge of collapsing.

However, Lin Xun had made a move before the attack struck him!

He twisted around and suddenly exerted strength to his waist. He smashed the nearby wall with his shoulder and vanished into the hole in the wall in a flash.

Almost as soon as Lin Xun had just left, an arrow had silently appeared where he was standing and blasted a bottomless hole into the ground!

At the same time, the middle-aged mans expression altered slightly. He realized that Lin Xun wasnt retreating but he evaded because he sensed sudden danger.

What terrified him the most was that he hadnt noticed the arrow that had appeared silently
