The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3415: The Ultimate Demon, Ruthless to the World! (First Update)
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
While Mo Wutian was preparing the array formation within the Heavenly Demon Clan's Fate Hall to annihilate the Divine Kingdom, he remained oblivious to two figures hovering high above the Heavenly Demon Land.
Draped in black robes, both individuals radiated an incredibly terrifying aura. One was completely shrouded in demonic qi, his face a blank mask of coldness. He resembled a devil emerged from the very depths of hell, causing the void behind him to freeze in place. This man’s power was on a crushing level that far surpassed Mo Wutian’s own strength.
Despite his overwhelming presence, he spoke with deep respect to the white-haired man standing before him. "Hall Master, is it necessary for us to erase the Demon Emperor?" he inquired.
The white-haired figure in the black robe was none other than Dishi Tian, the prestigious Hall Master of the Emperor Abyss Palace. Dishi Tian observed the Demon Emperor in the Fate Hall with a look of genuine interest, a charming smile playing on his lips. "Initially, I intended for you to eliminate this useless person," he replied.
"However, it seems this waste is no longer so worthless. We both underestimated the sheer strength that familial bonds can provide. Perhaps, once that array formation reaches completion, the World Destructive calamity will indeed descend upon the Divine Kingdom."
"That land is the homeland of that guy. If it falls, the impact on his karma would be significant, which serves our purposes well. I cannot interfere too directly in the Divine Kingdom's affairs; utilizing these Death Warriors provides the true thrill of playing chess, wouldn't you agree?"
"I, Dishi Tian, refuse to ever become a pitiable chess piece. Let us depart."
The subordinate in black was stunned. It was his first time witnessing the Hall Master share such deep contemplations. Since the Hall Master had decided to grant the Demon Emperor another opportunity, he could no longer take action.
"Let’s go."
A crack in space soon manifested in the void behind them. The rift fluctuated briefly before the two dark shadows vanished into nothingness, leaving no trace behind. Their movements were extremely mysterious.
Moments later, Mo Wutian looked up from the Fate Hall, his bloodshot eyes fixed intently on the spot where they had been. After staring for a long duration, he let out a heavy sigh. "My fate has long since ceased to belong to me."
"Even if I am nothing more than a pawn, what does it matter? As long as Ye Chen dies! As long as the Divine Kingdom is destroyed!"
...
The scene transitions.
Ye Chen and the Sky-covering Demon Emperor were naturally unaware of the Demon Emperor’s recent movements. At this moment, they were occupied by a far more pressing crisis.
Confronting Mo Xue Ming’s assault, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor wore a grim expression. He swung the Slaughter Immortal Sword with ferocity, sending waves of overwhelming demonic qi to clash against the Asura Qi. Simultaneously, the Slaughter Immortal Sword slammed into the Xuanwu Sky-opening Axe.
"Boom!" Violent shockwaves erupted in every direction, sweeping across the Ancient Battlefield. Countless remains were tossed into the air, while the vultures and crows circling above shrieked as they were pulverized into a bloody mist.
"Cough..."
The Sky-covering Demon Emperor withstood Mo Xue Ming’s full power, though his internal blood essence and energy were thrown into chaos, forcing him to retreat several steps. On the opposite side, Mo Xue Ming was also struggling. Although the Xuanwu Sky-opening Axe was ranked among the Thirty-Three Heavenly Hongmeng Treasures, it was slightly outclassed in a direct head-to-head collision by the Slaughter Immortal Sword, a Small Origin Weapon forged specifically for the purpose of slaughter.
However, neither the Sky-covering Demon Emperor nor Mo Xue Ming had the luxury of worrying about their injuries. Instead, both turned their focus toward Ye Chen. They both understood that Ye Chen held the key to this conflict; if he could successfully force himself into a demonized state, the tide of the battle would turn.
The Long Spear held by the War Soul was already slicing through the air, creating a torrent of space fragments that threatened to grind Ye Chen into dust. At that moment, Ye Chen’s location was blanketed by a terrifying magical energy that darkened the sky, hiding him from view.
"Boom!" The spear plunged into the magical energy, which instantly detonated. Everyone watched with wide eyes; if Ye Chen failed to survive this strike, he was finished.
"You are seeking death!" An enraged roar erupted from the center of the energy. The surging magical energy condensed into a massive palm that clamped firmly onto the tip of the Long Spear.
"Accursed creature, how dare you raise a hand against me!" The palm revealed Ye Chen’s hidden form as the energy shifted. His robes fluttered violently, and his eyes were as dark as ink, filled with a lethal fury as he glared at the War Soul.
"A mere War Soul created by a collection of worthless trash, yet you dare to strike me!" Ye Chen shouted again. The magical energy surrounding him surged toward the heavens as the giant palm gripping the spear suddenly tightened its hold.
"Bang!" The spear's tip shattered instantly, releasing a cloud of spiritual pressure and grievances like green smoke. With a sharp flick of his arm, Ye Chen sent the giant palm swinging toward the War Soul.
"Damn it!" The War Soul cried out in shock and rage. He had not anticipated that Ye Chen would manifest such terrifying power upon entering a demonized state within the Ancient Battlefield. It was clear that the demonic qi here was more potent than the combined spiritual pressure and grievances, causing Ye Chen’s strength to skyrocket and surpass his own.
With the tip of his weapon gone, the War Soul attempted to use the spear's shaft as a staff to block the giant palm. However, upon impact, the Long Spear crumbled like paper. In the blink of an eye, the palm reached the War Soul. Though he roared and tried to fight back by smashing his fists against the palm, it was futile.
"Ah!" The War Soul’s fists were pulverized instantly. He was sent flying like a discarded sack, his form dissipating as countless grievances were obliterated. Once the War Soul was dealt with, the magical energy was spent and vanished into the air.
"Ye Chen, you succeeded!" The Sky-covering Demon Emperor shouted with joy after witnessing that incredible strike.
Mo Xue Ming’s expression shifted rapidly. The power Ye Chen displayed after using the Darkest Divine Vein to demonize was truly frightening. That single palm strike made even his avatar feel threatened; it was an invincible force. As Mo Xue Ming weighed the option of retreating, Ye Chen turned his gaze toward the Sky-covering Demon Emperor, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.
"Is my name something you are permitted to speak so casually?" Ye Chen asked in a freezing tone.
The Sky-covering Demon Emperor froze. He quickly realized that Ye Chen’s forced demonization had compromised his consciousness. The ultimate demon is ruthless to all, possessing power and cruelty in equal measure. He knew that the mental chaos of a demonized state could cause Ye Chen to lose his ability to tell friend from foe, leading him to destroy everything in his path.
If Ye Chen began a mindless slaughter with such power, he would be unstoppable, and everyone present would perish. Mo Xue Ming also realized this and smiled maliciously. If Ye Chen had lost his mind, there was still hope; he might destroy his own allies, allowing Mo Xue Ming to win without effort.
"Ye Chen, wake up! Do not let the demonic qi overwhelm your mind!" the Sky-covering Demon Emperor shouted urgently.
"Hmm?" Ye Chen looked toward the Sky-covering Demon Emperor. A brief moment of clarity returned to his eyes as he suddenly grasped the reality of the situation.
