The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3461: Blood Dragon’s Cooperation!
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
"All things shall await your arrival in the Outer Realm."
"Young one, I'm departing now—we'll cross paths again in the Outer Realm!"
"One final warning: the abrupt vanishing of the Demon Emperor carries far too much mystery! Stay extremely vigilant against the Demon Emperor—no exceptions!"
In the instant that followed, a surge of demonic energy blasted upward toward the heavens!
It vanished completely from Ye Chen’s view.
With narrowed eyes, Ye Chen observed the figure fading away!
Once more, the Demon Emperor brought up the Demon Emperor, indicating that this entity indeed represents a serious danger.
Should he fail to show up shortly, Ye Chen intends to head out to the Outer Realm in search of the Demon Emperor!
Seizing the upper hand embodies the Wang Dao!
...
Ye Chen entered closed-door cultivation, as the Chong Guang Divine Radiance Palace in the Heavenly Dao Palace glowed with intense light, lighting up the entire sky. Inside the palace, Xuanyuan Moxie positioned himself, his eyes flashing subtly, his face showing no emotion, concealing what truly raced through his mind.
"Mo Xue Ming!" A chilling smirk suddenly twisted Xuanyuan Moxie’s lips, "Your fortune is remarkable—after all that chaos just days before, you somehow escaped death!"
Gazing at the challenge letter hovering in the skies, Xuanyuan Moxie realized that within under a month, this declaration would probably linger, forcing him to respond; refusal would demolish his standing completely and reveal his impersonation of the Samsara Master, since the real Samsara Master would never shy from combat.
"Fine then, if you're courting your end, I'll grant it to you." Xuanyuan Moxie gradually shut his eyes, fully recognizing that Mo Xue Ming possessed some hidden ace, enabling him to boldly issue this challenge.
Yet Xuanyuan Moxie held his own assurance, his personal secret weapon. Besides, over these recent days, he teetered on the edge of fully commanding the Immortal Slaying Sword.
"At Myriad Gods Mountain, I'll cut down Mo Xue Ming!" Xuanyuan Moxie’s energy exploded outward, shaking the Chong Guang Divine Radiance Palace, while the whole Heavenly Dao Palace vibrated in response at that very instant.
"Ye Chen, you'd better play it straight in this fight, but should you try to gain an edge, don't mind if I wipe you out too!"
"During the Myriad Gods Mountain clash, I plan to claim the top spot—anyone daring to obstruct me will perish!"
News of the Myriad Gods Mountain confrontation sent ripples across the entire Divine Kingdom.
During those times, from sect leaders to humble vendors selling pork, this event dominated every conversation in the Divine Kingdom.
The showdown between the Lord of Asura and the Heavenly Dao Master turned into daily chatter over meals all through the Divine Kingdom.
However, the central figures in this drama remained absent for now, clearly in isolation to gear up, set to confront this deadly duel at their strongest.
Just twenty days shy of the one-month deadline, Ye Chen secluded himself inside the Demon Suppression Hall as well.
The Myriad Gods Mountain event carried supreme significance, not merely for the Divine Kingdom's inhabitants, but equally for Ye Chen and Mo Xue Ming.
Lately, Ye Chen worked on refining the Purple Cloud Stone, though pushing for a swift advance to the Heavenly God Realm proved incredibly tough, particularly so soon after his prior advancement.
Still, on a positive note, Ye Chen had ransacked Mo Xue Ming’s storage of treasures, and amid the array of powerful elixirs, the standout discovery was a pitch-black orb brimming with intense demonic essence.
Known as the Demon Condensing Pearl, this gem hailed from the Outer Realm, born from the boundless demonic energy of a top-tier Holy Ancestor Realm mighty demon at the point of its fall.
To practitioners of the Demon Dao, the Demon Condensing Pearl counts as an ultimate boon—absorbing and processing it could propel one through several realms and bestow legacies from that mighty demon.
For those walking the righteous path, however, the Demon Condensing Pearl offers scant value and might even turn into the most lethal toxin.
None of that posed an issue for Ye Chen, though; bathed in the Netherworld Water, the profoundly demonic Demon Condensing Pearl got purified to a flawless, transparent purity.
Admittedly, in this purified form, its potency dropped sharply, yet employing it to shatter into the Heavenly God Realm stayed entirely straightforward.
Seated in a cross-legged pose inside the grand hall, spiritual energy swirled fiercely around Ye Chen, while Hongmeng Energy formed misty clouds drifting nearby, an unbeatable presence saturating the space.
Even with his eyes shut in deep focus, Ye Chen evoked the image of an ultimate ruler, the majesty of the Samsara Master from his previous existence slowly manifesting on him.
Inside his body, the Purple Cloud Stone underwent swift refinement, its heart holding a spotless and sacred orb that released pure vitality, fostering all existence. As the orb spun, tremendous force flowed into Ye Chen’s every limb, filling him with a soothing warmth like bathing in a thermal spring.
In contrast to the early stages of refining the Demon Condensing Pearl, the orb had diminished in size several folds and would finish refining in under two days.
Ye Chen held a calm and serene state without disturbance, but he could feel that the moment he fully refined the Demon Condensing Pearl would align perfectly with his ascension to the Heavenly God Realm!
...
At the same time, over in the Outer Realm's Dragon Valley.
Threads of Yuhua Immortal Light drifted across the skies and earth, emitting boundless splendor, both stunning and grand.
Right then, a silhouette abruptly stormed into Dragon Valley, a torrent of demonic energy blasting the Yuhua Immortal Light into a chaotic whirl.
Beneath, the horde of dragons witnessed this with a mix of reactions, and right in Dragon Valley's heart lay the Water View Dragon Lake.
Perched over the lake, grand and commanding, the Yuhua Heavenly Palace rose dominantly, as a dragon shadow cloaked in infinite regal power launched forward.
A scarlet dragon shadow, its enormous form blotting out the heavens, every scale gleaming with vivid red glow, exuding overwhelming might.
The moment it appeared, the countless demonic dragons circling the palace at once displayed reverence, lowering their heads in submission.
"Senior Demon Emperor, you've come back." This dragon shadow belonged to the Blood Dragon, greeting the Sky-covering Demon Emperor who had rushed back from the Divine Kingdom.
"How fares the Master?" With worry, the Blood Dragon quickly asked after Ye Chen.
"Ye Chen remains in good condition," the Sky-covering Demon Emperor answered with a faint grin, adding, "though he requires your aid now."
"I’ve detected it as well—that the Master calls for me."
The Blood Dragon’s gaze shifted at these words, as he had truly experienced that pull in the past few days. Without sensing Ye Chen’s steady presence, he would have charged to the Divine Kingdom long ago.
"What’s going on?" The Blood Dragon’s face grew serious.
"This situation has spread throughout the Divine Kingdom already." Enveloped in quivering demonic energy, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor explained with profound understanding.
"Mo Xue Ming has challenged Xuanyuan Moxie to battle at Myriad Gods Mountain, and Ye Chen plans to step in."
"Challenged him?" Shock flashed in the Blood Dragon’s eyes, puzzled at what bold impulse drove Mo Xue Ming to confront Xuanyuan Moxie, aware that such a move signaled a fight to the finish.
"It runs deeper than that—a hidden Chess Player pulls the strings from the shadows," the Sky-covering Demon Emperor deduced, his features turning somewhat stern.
"Ye Chen’s involvement won’t go smoothly; expect plenty of twists, so you must hurry to lend support!"
"Got it!" The Blood Dragon agreed instantly with a nod, his devotion to Ye Chen unshakeable, fully committed to helping in the hazardous Myriad Gods Mountain battle.
