The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3567: Fusing into the Blood (Third Update)

Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
The Sky-covering Demon Emperor admired the purity of Ye Chen's blood essence, which he offered to the Giant Leader despite the strain it caused. As the Giant Leader kowtowed in gratitude, the Golden Winged Great Peng launched a ferocious attack on Ye Chen, piercing through his Netherworld Gang Qi and overpowering assaults from the Sky-covering Demon Emperor and Jun Mo, sending them all flying with grievous injuries. In desperation, the Giant Leader hurled Ye Chen's blood essence onto the altar, activating its Guardian Formation and summoning a colossal Giant Illusion that seized the terrified Golden Winged Great Peng by the neck, subduing the Heavenly Repairing Realm beast with supreme power while the giants knelt in reverence.

Simultaneously, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor stared intently at the shadowy form, and Jun Mo stood in complete astonishment. He finally understood the reason behind his blood's quivering and his spirit's unrest from the moment he set foot in this place.

A horrifying bloodline lurked within the altar, far different from Ye Chen, whose blood essence remained fused inside his flesh. Clearly, his own blood detected this colossal ancestor's lineage, filling him with dread and terror.

In contrast, Ye Chen observed the massive apparition with a faint smile tugging at his lips, experiencing a profound closeness, like they had shared endless ages together, allowing him to trust it without reservation.

"This must be another deed from a previous existence."

Ye Chen regarded the shadowy form with comprehension dawning in his mind. Though he failed to identify this colossal apparition, that distinctive bond surely tied back to his former life.

"Could this be the Cangmu Giant?" Ye Chen's gaze shimmered as he turned to the Sky-covering Demon Emperor.

"Indeed." The Sky-covering Demon Emperor affirmed with a nod, traces of respect gleaming in his eyes. "Furthermore, it's likely the primordial Cangmu Giant, originating from the Heavenly Giant Tree, commanding the ancient Divine Wood Origin, able to rattle the All Heavens with a single motion."

"Giants, former sovereigns of the cosmos, with the eldest among them wielding unparalleled might that stunned the realms!"

"The primordial giant." Ye Chen nodded gradually. Even as merely a silhouette of a Cangmu Giant, the strength it unleashed proved overwhelmingly dominant, placing it at the pinnacle among Cangmu Giants.

Otherwise, should every Cangmu Giant hold such fearsome prowess, they would truly reign as the supreme lineage, unbeatable by any force.

Right then, the Cangmu Giant's silhouette gripped the Golden Winged Great Peng's throat, its eyes gleaming with cold detachment, abruptly declaring: "You alone presume to plot against my lineage? You're merely a mutt; not even a pure Golden Winged Great Peng would dare challenge me. From where do you draw such audacity!"

Upon hearing those words, the Golden Winged Great Peng froze in utter horror. True, he carried only a fraction of the Golden Winged Great Peng's heritage, yet it sufficed for his arrogance, but to the Cangmu Giant, it meant nothing.

"You worthless bug, full of illusions, lost in fantasies while awake, now face the retribution you earn!"

The Cangmu Giant's silhouette erupted with surging energy, an unparalleled ferocious force exploded outward, as thick Source Breath flooded into the Golden Winged Great Peng's form without delay.

Suddenly, the Golden Winged Great Peng's body expanded rapidly, its inherent Golden Winged Great Peng bloodline torn out bit by bit, drops of supremely refined golden blood flowing through the air, radiating boundless splendor.

"Ah!"

The Golden Winged Great Peng screamed across the heavens, his lineage forcibly removed, the peak strength of his frame drained away, his presence fading swiftly, vibrant plumage dulling and stripped of shine.

Supreme energy filled the skies, akin to rule-based authority, dreadfully intense.

Each action of the Cangmu Giant's silhouette appeared to harmonize with the Heavenly Dao Rules.

Held by the colossal apparition, the Golden Winged Great Peng dwindled steadily, shrinking down, ultimately morphing into a dull gray falcon, its bulk diminished by over tenfold, savage ferocity vanished, cultivation plummeting from Heavenly Repairing Realm to the seventh layer of Holy Ancestor Realm.

Ferocious creatures often depend heavily on their inherited bloodline strength, boasting of their pedigrees, with most of their might rooted in that essence. Now, stripped of it, the Golden Winged Great Peng plummeted from the heights into the Endless Abyss.

Instantly, the savage beasts that had trailed the Golden Winged Great Peng revealed chilling glints in their gazes without end.

The Golden Winged Great Peng's temperament proved savage and fickle, delighting in butchering his followers for amusement. These creatures had suffered his tyranny, yet with his strength gone and bloodline extracted, the suppressed pack at last unleashed their fury.

"Looks like they're keen to have a word with you."

Just then, the Cangmu Giant's silhouette locked eyes on the Golden Winged Great Peng, boundless apathy in its stare. With a casual raise of its hand, it hurled the Golden Winged Great Peng toward the horde of savage beasts.

"No! Stop! They'll rip me to shreds!"

Panic gripped the Golden Winged Great Peng completely, bereft of his inherited bloodline, all former splendor lost. The creatures held no awe for him anymore; the deeper their past terror, the fiercer their current thirst for his demise.

"Bang!"

Prior to the Golden Winged Great Peng landing amid the beast pack, a winged, spotted serpent darted forth, clamping onto him.

Immediately, the Golden Winged Great Peng's wings got severed by the bite, myriad feathers cascading, crimson streams pouring from above.

"Damn it!"

The Golden Winged Great Peng roared in agony and fury, intent on denouncing the disloyalty of his former underlings, but ere he could end his tirade, numerous beasts sprang skyward.

The savage beasts lunged at the airborne Golden Winged Great Peng, unleashing their raw savagery and matchless brutality, true to their ruthless essence.

Observing the aerial carnage, a trace of sorrow flickered in Ye Chen's gaze, as the formerly majestic Golden Winged Great Peng got savaged, reduced to mere sustenance for the horde.

At the same time, the Giant Leader and his allies rejoiced wildly, the ancestor's vision proved utterly unbeatable, wiping out foes entirely, filling them with profound joy and deepening their awe toward Ye Chen.

"All of you, scram!"

The savage beasts ravaged the Golden Winged Great Peng, still basking in the rush of felling their old tyrant, when a deep, supremely commanding tone resounded.

That sound daunted the entire cosmos, brimming with absolute authority, sending the beasts peering fearfully toward the altar's location.

With detached eyes, the Cangmu Giant regarded them; though they had slain many of his kin, their role was no small part, but he cared little to confront such foes.

When threats arise, he would intervene to crush all adversaries of his offspring, lest they accomplish naught in existence, for all must be seized through their own struggles; he refused to smooth their way excessively, as it would only weaken them.

The instant the Cangmu Giant uttered his command, the savage beasts fled in frenzy, unwilling to stay, restoring peace to the woods at once.

Now, every gaze converged on Ye Chen, from the Cangmu Giant, the Sky-covering Demon Emperor, to Jun Mo.

Staring at Ye Chen, Jun Mo's eyes brimmed with deep insight. He recognized Ye Chen's extraordinary destiny and plotted nothing against his destiny. He grasped well that a figure like Ye Chen lay beyond his control; any attempt to act against him would plunge him into the Endless Abyss.

In the meantime, while the Cangmu Giant's silhouette regarded Ye Chen, he lifted his gaze to meet the Cangmu Giant as well.

The moment their gazes locked, the coldness in the Cangmu Giant's eyes dissolved, giving way to infinite respect and reminiscence.

At once, the Cangmu Giant's eyes conveyed limitless sagacity; in that single look, Ye Chen sensed himself fully exposed, his face subtly altering without control.

It seemed the Cangmu Giant read Ye Chen's mind. In this instant, through that mere exchange of glances, no words passed, pretending ignorance of Ye Chen, turning his attention instead to the Giant Leader and his group.

"My bloodline energy nears total exhaustion. Henceforth, your fates rest in your own hands. Take this remnant of the Golden Winged Great Peng’s blood essence; I'll infuse it into your veins—guard yourselves well from here on!"

The Cangmu Giant proclaimed loudly, flicking his wrist, causing the radiant Golden Winged Great Peng blood essence, which lit up the All Heavens, to quiver amid the skies.
