The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3724 - 3710: Communication Talisman (Sixth Update)
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
The collective breath of the Six Paths Temple seemed to hitch as the treasure chest was revealed, stirring immense surprise among countless elders.
Even Sect Master Wu and Elder Dao Pao displayed significant astonishment, their gazes, along with everyone else's, inevitably drawn towards Elders Gao Lin.
Who is Yang Tiangyang? Arrogant, domineering, immensely ambitious, and a man who never forgets debts—or rather, never remembers gratitude. How could he suddenly come to his senses? This undoubtedly must be the work of Ye Chen.
"Those two old fossils weren't lying to us; everything Ye Chen said and did is the truth."
From their vantage point above the Six Paths Temple, a profound tremor ran through everyone. Witnessing the elders' reactions, Elders Gao Lin felt an even greater surge of pride, their association with Ye Chen's group bringing them boundless glory.
Withdrawing his gaze from the Heavenly Saint Treasure Box, Sect Master Wu turned to Feng Yusi, a smile gracing his lips. "Yang Tiangyang regaining his senses is indeed a fortunate development; we shall gladly accept the gift from Zhenyuan Palace."
"We also hope Saintess Feng will convey to Yang Tiangyang that he should not forget the longstanding friendship between our two sects. May the Six Paths Sect and Zhenyuan Palace remain lifelong allies."
"Yes, this disciple will certainly remember Sect Master Wu's words."
Feng Yusi promptly nodded in agreement. The disciples from Zhenyuan Palace accompanying her remained remarkably subdued; they had directly witnessed Ye Chen's formidable strength and his ability to command respect, even from Yang Tiangyang himself. They dared not provoke him.
Although a majority of the Zhenyuan Palace disciples still harbored a condescending view of the Six Paths Sect, their deference to Ye Chen was palpable. As long as he was present within the Six Paths Sect, they refrained from any arrogance, instead maintaining a cautious demeanor and showing utmost respect to Sect Master Wu and the assembled elders.
After presenting the treasures, Feng Yusi and her entourage departed with haste. The historical animosity and poor relations between Zhenyuan Palace and the Six Paths Sect were a well-known fact to both sides.
While Feng Yusi's visit this time aimed at reconciliation, the disciples of the Six Paths Sect could not help but offer them the cold shoulder. Even the elders offered no welcoming smiles. Remaining would only lead to mutual awkwardness, making departure the most sensible course of action.
Once Feng Yusi and her party had left, Sect Master Wu and the elders turned their attention back to the Heavenly Saint Treasure Box presented by Zhenyuan Palace, their eyes gleaming with unspoken thoughts.
"Ye Chen, this young man, is simply a prodigy; his talent and strength are extraordinary. He is truly a blessing to our Six Paths Sect!"
At this moment, an elder who had previously harbored extreme disdain for Ye Chen suddenly voiced his newfound admiration.
"Indeed, Ye Chen's future is boundless; he is undeniably an exceptional individual."
"Truly, a peerless talent like Ye Chen, who even managed to best Feng Yusi, is destined for supreme heights."
A wave of excitement swept through many elders who had initially been skeptical of Ye Chen, their faces flushed with genuine respect.
It was Ye Chen's remarkable accomplishments that had ignited their fervor. They themselves had been unable to alter Zhenyuan Palace's dismissive stance, yet Ye Chen's intervention had successfully compelled Yang Tiangyang to bow. Such a feat commanded even their reluctant admiration.
Even Zhou Jin, who had consistently held a grievance against Ye Chen, found a flicker of admiration in his eyes at this moment.
"A place like Netherworld Peak is truly worthy of only someone like Ye Chen."
Zhou Jin couldn't help but shake his head. Previously, he had been irked by Ye Chen's perceived arrogance and had considered his strength and talent to be mediocre. However, he now understood Ye Chen's extraordinary nature and felt no residual hostility.
Sect Master Wu and Elder Dao Pao exchanged a knowing glance, a shared gleam of understanding in their eyes.
"Ye Chen, this young man, his future achievements will be monumental; we must ensure his safety and allow him to develop steadily."
These thoughts occupied Sect Master Wu's mind.
Without delay, Sect Master Wu directed Elders Gao Lin to open the Heavenly Saint Treasure Box from Zhenyuan Palace. Immediately, auspicious Qi surged forth, bathing the entire Six Paths Temple in a resplendent glow, transforming it into a mystical sanctuary.
Streams of vibrant light danced, Hongmeng Energy flowed through the hall, leaving all the elders in awe. Even Sect Master Wu could not help but click his tongue in admiration.
"Yang Tiangyang, that fellow certainly amassed quite a few valuable items over the years."
Sect Master Wu remarked, noting that within the four Heavenly Saint Treasure Boxes lay treasures so rare, unique, or legendary that they were seldom encountered even within the Moon Soul Domain.
"Heavenly Flower Glaze Sword, Red Feather Thunder Sky Blade, Water Daffodil Yin Pen, Broken Cloud Silver Bell, Secret Bone Melting Saber..."
The first Heavenly Saint Treasure Box alone contained an astonishing array of sharp artifacts and Emperor Artifacts, all renowned within the Moon Soul Domain.
The second Heavenly Saint Treasure Box was laden with a plethora of divine spiritual treasures and invaluable materials.
"A Creation Mysterious Pill, nurtured by the very essence of heaven and earth?! A Xuanshuang Heavenly Bud, hailing from the most frigid regions! And an Alien Demon Magic Crystal, rumored to exist only in the deepest pits of hell..."
A chorus of exclamations arose from the assembled elders. While such treasures might have been commonplace for the once-illustrious Six Paths Sect, they were now desperately scarce for the sect's current state of decline.
The third and fourth treasure chests held items of legend, some imbued with astonishing mysteries, others radiating an ominous demonic qi. The true purpose of these artifacts was unknown even to the most knowledgeable within the Six Paths Temple.
These relics were frequently accompanied by cryptic prophecies or linked to forgotten ruins, remnants gathered by Zhenyuan Palace in their pursuit of exploring such enigmatic locales.
However, venturing into these mysterious places was fraught with peril; even the formidable Zhenyuan Palace hesitated to proceed without extreme caution. Given the Six Paths Sect's weakened condition, far inferior to Zhenyuan Palace's might, these items could not be casually investigated lest they invite calamitous trouble.
Nevertheless, the four Heavenly Saint Treasure Boxes were undeniably valuable, deserving of being classified as essential sect assets and treated with the utmost gravity.
"Yang Tiangyang has truly presented a grand offering; it appears he has finally seen the error of his ways."
"Ha ha, seen the error of his ways? More likely, he recognized the potential within our Nephew Ye Chen and seeks to mend fences."
"Yang Tiangyang harbors ulterior motives; we must maintain our guard."
A lively debate unfolded among the elders within the grand hall.
Sect Master Wu observed their discussions, remaining silent, his gaze lingering for a profound moment in the direction of Netherworld Peak.
After a period, Sect Master Wu dismissed the elders, simultaneously instructing the steward of the Six Paths Sect's treasure vault to secure the four Heavenly Saint Treasure Boxes. He then returned to Six Paths Peak.
During this time, news of Zhenyuan Palace disciples arriving at the Six Paths Sect with overtures of reconciliation and pledges of numerous treasures permeated the entire sect.
Numerous disciples of the Six Paths Sect began to speculate, linking this gesture to Ye Chen's recent visit to Zhenyuan Palace. They firmly believed Ye Chen must have achieved something extraordinary during his stay there.
Conversely, some argued that Ye Chen's cultivation was too low, making it impossible for him to influence Zhenyuan Palace's stance. They proposed that Zhenyuan Palace's sudden desire for reconciliation stemmed from other, undisclosed reasons.
This divergence in opinion sparked heated quarrels among the disciples throughout the sect. Eventually, Elders Gao Lin stepped forward to present a clear explanation.
Despite the clarification provided by Elders Gao Lin regarding the events with Zhenyuan Palace, a significant portion of the Six Paths Sect disciples found the elders' account too unbelievable to accept. They remained unconvinced.
Nevertheless, Ye Chen remained deliberately detached from these unfolding events. At that very moment, he was ensconced within the main hall of Netherworld Peak, positioned beside the Netherworld Spirit Water, diligently cultivating his Qi. Suddenly, a Communication Talisman entered the hall, cutting through the tranquil atmosphere.
