The Prodigies War

Chapter 1845: Yellow Earth Dao Body



Jintian Xuanyue, who was in a plain dress, turned slightly pale.

She never thought that she would be rejected without even seeing Yu Xuan!

It should be mentioned that she was extremely prideful and conceited. She had only bowed her head and became willing to take the role of a cultivator attendant after much hesitation and deliberation.

Clearly, she never thought that she would be rejected...

For a moment, feelings of shame, frustration, and failure surged in her heart.

In the end, she composed herself. She did not leave in a huff, nor did she erupt in anger. She just stood in front of Lin Xun’s courtyard.

She stood alone in silence.

She seemed to turn a deaf ear to all the rumors about her that spread on Whirlwind Ship.

……

In the courtyard, Liu Qingyan couldn’t help asking, “Senior Yu Xuan, Jintian Xuanyue is after all a talented girl of her generation, and she’s also accompanied by an Emperor. Are you really just going to leave her there and ignore her?”

She did not have the heart to watch.

While studying the All-Inclusive Plant Index, Lin Xun responded nonchalantly, “That’s her own business and has nothing to do with me.”

In his heart, he also felt a little helpless.

He had guessed the real reason why Jintian Xuanyue was waiting at his door to serve him as a cultivator attendant. She was probably doing so on the orders of Sword Emperor Brave Gale.

However, Lin Xun would never agree to it.

It was precisely because Jintian Xuanyue was extremely well known. If he allowed her to follow by his side, it would definitely draw a lot of attention and potentially cause his true identity to be exposed!

Lin Xun asked, “By the way, we will arrive in the Great Primordial Chaos World in a few months. What are your plans then, Miss Qingyan?”

Liu Qingyan hesitated for a moment before she answered, “Master said that there is a mysterious place called Pure Land of Grand Sound in the Great Primordial Chaos World. The cultivators there are all skilled masters who have entered the dao through music.

“Master has promised to take me there to see. If I can be lucky enough to train in the Pure Land of Grand Sound, I won’t need to be afraid of threats from Kong Yu.”

“That would be good,” said Lin Xun.

He could not reveal his identity, so once they arrived in the Great Primordial Chaos World, they would inevitably have to part ways. It would be impossible for him to take care of Liu Qingyan forever.

If she was accepted into Pure Land of Grand Sound, then he wouldn’t have to worry anymore.

Thinking of this, Lin Xun asked, “Miss Qingyan, do you know whether Pure Land of Grand Sound is recruiting disciples?”

Liu Qingyan shook her head. “Master only told me to give it a try, and whether it is a success or failure will depend on fate.”

“Fate…”

Lin Xun sighed inwardly. That’s means to not be so hopeful…

He thought for a moment, then stood up and walked out of the courtyard.

Outside the courtyard, Jintian Xuanyue’s face lit up with surprise when she saw Lin Xun open the door, then she couldn’t help feeling a little nervous.

Lin Xun ignored her reaction and said bluntly, “Miss Xuanyue, you can go back to pass on the message to Elder Sword Emperor Brave Gale that if he wants to compensate me, then he only needs to do me a favor.”

Jintian Xuanyue looked taken aback. “What is it?”

Lin Xun then told her via voice transmission.

Upon hearing his request, Jintian Xuanyue revealed a complicated expression on her heavenly beautiful face. “Fellow Daoist, could it be, in your opinion, I, Jintian Xuanyue, am inferior to a disciple of Heavenly Sound Pavilion?”

Before waiting for a response, she turned around and walked away.

Her heart was full of bitterness.

She was a pure-blooded descendant of the high and mighty Imperial Jintian Clan, a talented genius of her generation who had made it onto the All Heavens Saint-King Rankings after only one hundred and eighty years of cultivation.

She had disregarded her status and was willing to serve as a cultivator attendant, but she was still rejected.

However, Yu Xuan asked for compensation on his own accord for the sake of art cultivator Liu Qingyan. The difference in treatment between the two was a huge blow to the prideful Jintian Xuanyue.

Lin Xun shook his head while watching her leave and returned to the courtyard.

……

“He said that as long as I help Liu Qingyan join Pure Land of Grand Sound, it will be considered as compensation.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale was flabbergasted to learn about Lin Xun’s compensation request from Jintian Xuanyue.

Meanwhile, Jintian Xuanyue’s face clouded over, “Ancestor, does Yu Xuan look down on me that much?”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale sighed.

Originally, he thought that if he let Jintian Xuanyue follow Lin Xun, it would be the same as having the opportunity to form a friendly relationship with him.

After all, if Lin Xun had a Emperor-level senior brother whose cultivation was so high that it was impossible to fathom, then the sect behind him must be equally as powerful.

If Jintian Xuanyue could gain his approval, then she might obtain some unexpected fortune.

Who would have thought…

…he had rejected her!

“Xuanyue, do you remember when I willingly bowed my head and admitted defeat a few days ago?” After taking a deep breath, Sword Emperor Brave Gale looked at his most favored junior with a serious expression. “This is just a little setback on your great dao cultivation path. Don’t be discouraged. Yu Xuan may have his own thoughts, but your path...must not be obstructed by this.”

Jintian Xuanyue quivered, and she said earnestly, “Thank you for your teachings, Ancestor.”

“On you go.”

Watching her leave, Sword Emperor Brave Gale couldn’t help but scrunch his brows.

In the Great Primordial Chaos World were the Great Six Courts and Great Ten Battle Clans as well as many ancient imperial clans. It was regarded as the most prosperous, most dazzling, and oldest world of the Ancient Nebula Road.

Pure Land of Grand Sound was also an ancient force in the Great Primordial Chaos World, but relatively speaking, it was rather mysterious, and its disciples were rarely seen in the world.

From what Sword Emperor Brave Gale knew, the most famous figure of Pure Land of Grand Sound was Qin Emperor Xiaoxiang[1], who had ascended the dao with music in the primeval era.

His qin skills were unmatched in the starry sky, able to eradicate demons and kill gods. Many people turned pale at the mere mention of him.

“It won’t be easy to join the sect…” Sword Emperor Brave Gale sighed.

Although their Imperial Jintian Clan was extremely powerful and known throughout the starry sky, they had no connection with Pure Land of Grand Sound.

“Right, how could I forget about her? If she takes care of the matter, then it will definitely be settled.”

Suddenly, Sword Emperor Brave Gale thought of someone and that person was also on Whirlwind Ship.

……

In a courtyard.

The old woman looked at the unexpected visitor, Sword Emperor Brave Gale, and remarked indifferently, “I didn’t think a mighty Emperor like yourself would throw away his honor and pride to ask me for help just to compensate a kid.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale smiled bitterly. “Fellow Daoist, I hope you can help.”

The old woman said ruminatively, “If our Xuan Clan acts on your behalf, we can indeed get Pure Land of Grand Sound to accept the girl. But my young master has always been interested in the Jingtian Clan’s secret scripture of Chaos Sword Whirlwind. I wonder if it would be possible to let him take a look at it.”

Sword Emperor Brave Gale’s lips twitched. The Chaos Sword Whirlwind Scripture was a secret inheritance of their clan, how could he let anyone borrow it?

That old woman was making an unreasonable demand!

“Fellow Daoist, you’re not deliberately trying to make things difficult for me, right?” Blade Emperor Brave Gale smiled bitterly.

The hemp-clothed youth who had been listening in on the side interjected, “I don’t want the Chaos Sword Whirlwind Scripture, I just want to see its power.”

Blade Emperor Brave Gale thought for a moment before he answered, “That would be fine.”

The old woman was helpless. That rascal is an idiot. Can’t he tell that I am seeking benefits for him?

The hemp-clothed youth smiled and thought to himself. Of course I know how to take advantage of an opportunity. I just want to do that brother a favor. Also, Blade Emperor Brave Gale will owe me a favor. This kills two birds with one stone!

……

On the same day, Lin Xun received a token engraved with the word ‘Xuan’ and he also learned that the token would allow Liu Qingyan to easily join Pure Land of Grand Sound.

“Xuan Jiuyin’s background is indeed not ordinary at all.” Lin Xun rubbed his chin.

He could do what even Blade Emperor Brave Gale couldn’t by just giving out a token. It proved that the foundation of the Xuan Clan was tremendous.

Lin Xun remembered something that the mysterious woman Xi in the Omega Secret-Realm told him. In the primeval era was a peerless sword cultivator called Xuan Shangchen who entered the Omega Secret-Realm.

That person was the only challenger who had successfully passed all nine levels of the Great Azure Cloud Path and also opened the Omega Door a crack.

Before Lin Xun entered the Omega Secret-Realm, Xi mentioned that Xuan Shangchen was ranked first among all Omega Secret-Realm challengers in terms of remarkable talent and foundation.

She also reminded Lin Xun to remember the surname ‘Xuan’ because it was extraordinary, mysterious, and wonderful!

Not just any clan was qualified to have this surname!

“Xuan Jiuyin is probably a descendant of Xuan Shangchen...” Thinking of this, Lin Xun felt an urge to meet Xuan Jiuyin.

Xuan Shangchen had entered the Omega Secret-Realm before and the existence of this secret realm was related to his mother Luo Qingxun, Mister Lu, Lu Boya, and the Omega Lord, Luo Tongtian!

As one of the challengers, Xuan Shangchen had to know more about the Omega Secret-Realm.

In the end, Lin Xun suppressed his urge. After all, he could not reveal his real identity. Moreover, Xuan Jiuyin might not know anything about the Omega Secret-Realm.

If there’s a chance in the future, I must inquire about it.

Time flew by. The ship navigated the empty starry sky without running into any disturbances. Before they knew it, another two months had passed.

Boom!

On this day, in the courtyard, Lin Xun’s body was roaring and pouring out a rich, abundant yellow aura.

In his spleen, the yellow earth spirit embryo was violently vibrating like a beating drum, and vitally that was so dense that it was almost tangible was surging around it.

Finally, accompanied by a dull dao sound, misty yellow-earth light gathered to form a yellow figure, giving a feeling of vastness, stability, and stillness like a mountain.

Upon closer look, the dharma body had handsome facial features and was an exact likeness of Lin Xun.

Yellow Earth Dao Body!

Earth was one of the five elements and corresponded with the trigram Kun (earth), symbolizing that with great virtue one could take charge of the world!

The figure was an incarnation of the great dao, born from the yellow earth spirit embryo, thus it radiated majesty, profoundness, boundlessness, and vastness.

Having had the experience of condensing the Green Wood Dao Body, Lin Xun was already familiar with the process so he had no trouble in condensing the Yellow Earth Dao Body.

Boom!

His energy, spirit, qi and cultivation surged out and entered the Yellow Earth Dao Body.

In just a moment, all kinds of marvelous insights about the Yellow Earth Dao Body rushed up Lin Xun’s mind.
