The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3738 - 3728: What Is Monstrous?! (Fourth Update)

As a high-ranking member of the Demon Clan, he possessed an innate, heaven-defying intuition, far surpassing ordinary human cultivators! In terms of this instinctual spiritual root, compared to humans, Xu Shenglong could be described as a once-in-ten-thousand-years phenomenon!

Thus, relying on his demonic beast intuition, he truly had a chance to master this Fate Calling Technique within a month or two!

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen simply offered a faint smile and stated, "I intend to cultivate all three of the Cloud Clearing Techniques!"

Xu Shenglong was utterly taken aback by Ye Chen's declaration, initially unable to trust his own ears!

What had Ye Chen just said?

He wanted to cultivate all three Cloud Clearing Techniques?

One must remember, they were left with just over two months!

Furthermore, it was impossible to dedicate all that time solely to the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques, yet Brother Ye aimed to master them all?

These three types of heaven-defying spiritual roots were abilities that profoundly impacted a martial artist's power. For any regular martial artist, possessing a heaven-defying talent in just one of these would be considered the mark of an unparalleled genius throughout history, wouldn't it?

And for someone aspiring, in such a short timeframe, to cultivate all three Cloud Clearing Techniques to a respectable level, it would require extraordinary, transcendent talent in all three aspects!

What kind of concept was that?

A genius who reached the zenith in one talent might appear once in ten millennia; what about a genius possessing two talents simultaneously?

That would be an occurrence seen only once in countless ten-thousand-year cycles!

And to possess three talents at once!

That was practically an anomaly, a being that shouldn't exist!

Such an individual would have already transcended the ultimate limits attainable by ordinary martial artists, wouldn't they?

If such a person existed, they would be an ultimate monstrous entity, perhaps appearing once in billions of years!

Yet, Brother Ye actually possessed such confidence?

Despite Xu Shenglong's immense admiration and faith in Ye Chen, he couldn't help but find this utterly astounding!

Ye Chen, however, remained unfazed. He stood up and announced, "Let's depart."

Still reeling from the shock, Xu Shenglong blankly inquired, "Brother Ye, where are we headed?"

Ye Chen explained, "The cultivation methods for the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques are currently monopolized by the Dark Domain, prohibiting any private instruction. We are going to the Cloud Clearing Hall in Deceit City. After settling a fee, we will be able to cultivate the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."

Whether it would prove successful or not, wouldn't they discover that once they arrived?

Without delay, the duo departed from the Black Stone Inn and set their sights on the Cloud Clearing Hall.

Before long, Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong reached a solitary structure perched atop a high cliff.

This edifice, resembling a palace, was constructed entirely from an unknown dark-purple stone. Above its grand entrance, a plaque bore the three characters for "Cloud Clearing Hall," inscribed with bold, dynamic strokes reminiscent of dragons and dancing phoenixes.

Ye Chen's eyes subtly gleamed as he entered the hall with Xu Shenglong.

The Cloud Clearing Hall occupied a vast expanse, yet the martial artists within were sparsely distributed in small groups; the hall was not crowded.

A young maiden, adorned in a water-blue gown and possessing a delicate, attractive countenance, observed Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong approaching. She greeted them with a gentle smile, remarking, "Esteemed Young Masters, are you seeking a Cloud Clearing Master? We happen to have several Cloud Clearing Masters, possessing success rates exceeding forty percent, available at this moment."

A Cloud Clearing Master was defined as a martial artist who had achieved a specific level of proficiency in the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques. They offered their services to other martial artists, assessing the latter's capabilities. The prerequisite to becoming a Cloud Clearing Master was achieving at least a thirty percent success rate in appraisals!

Recommending Cloud Clearing Masters was indeed one of the services provided by the Cloud Clearing Hall.

However, Ye Chen simply shook his head and declared, "We are here to study the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."

The maiden appeared momentarily surprised, yet she promptly nodded and replied, "Please, follow me."

With that, she guided Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong further into the depths of the Cloud Clearing Hall.

Soon, under the maiden's escort, Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong arrived at a rather refined tea room. Within, three elderly gentlemen, exuding an extraordinary aura, were seated, enjoying their tea together.

Upon seeing these three elders, Ye Chen's expression couldn't help but change subtly. He felt three peculiar energy fluctuations simultaneously sweep over his entire being!

Immediately following this, three distinct expressions dawned upon the faces of the elders!

One elder, sporting a goatee, revealed a hint of disdain, while the slightly portly elder beside him lifted his eyebrows, his gaze fixed on Ye Chen with a mixture of shock and bewilderment!

The final elder, whose countenance was rather somber, observed Ye Chen with a slight flicker in his eyes, as if deep in thought.

The young lady offered a smile to the three elders and stated, "Master Hong, Master Huang, Master Ye, these two are Young Master Ye Shitian and Young Master Jin. They have come with the intention of cultivating the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."

With that announcement, the maiden proceeded to introduce the three to Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong.

The elder with the goatee was identified as Hong Jin, serving as the instructor tasked with imparting the Tongyuan Technique.

The slightly plump elder was named Huang Quan, and he held the responsibility of instructing the Heavenly Observation Technique.

The last elder, with his gloomy demeanor, was Ye Gu, the designated instructor for the Fate Calling Technique.

To attain the position of an instructor, a minimum success rate of sixty percent in the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques was a prerequisite!

Hong Jin cast a glance at Ye Chen and Xu Shenglong before inquiring, "Which Magic Skill do you intend to cultivate?"

Xu Shenglong stepped forward initially and declared, "I intend to cultivate the Fate Calling Technique!"

Hong Jin then turned his attention to Ye Chen and asked, "Kid, what about you?"

Ye Chen's gaze met Hong Jin's as he slowly responded, "I'm planning to cultivate all three of the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques."

In that instant, a peculiar silence descended upon the entire tea room. Subsequently, the expressions of the three elders towards Ye Chen became decidedly odd!

With a dismissive snort, Hong Jin was the first to emit a mocking laugh. Immediately thereafter, a resounding cacophony of laughter filled the tea room!

The three of them—Hong Jin and his companions—erupted in wild laughter, regarding Ye Chen with strange looks.

They struggled to comprehend how someone as unaware of his own limitations as Ye Chen had managed to survive and gain entry into the Dark Domain!

And he even desired to cultivate all three of the Cloud Clearing Techniques?

Did this brat even grasp the implications of his own words?

The discerning gazes that Huang Quan and Ye Gu had initially directed at Ye Chen, holding a trace of something indefinable, now reverted to their previous states.

Ye Chen inquired, "What is it? Is it not permitted?"

Hong Jin let out a chilling laugh. "Permitted, of course, it is allowed. The crux of the matter is, can you even afford the tuition? The cost of cultivating the Cloud Clearing Three Techniques is quite substantial, you understand?"

From the perspective of the three elders, Ye Chen possessed no discernible chance of advancing all three Cloud Clearing Three Techniques to a commendable level. Even if, by some miracle, he managed to achieve this, who knew how many years it would take!

Furthermore, the process was remarkably inefficient. With the same investment of effort, choosing to cultivate just a single Magic Skill would yield a significantly higher success rate!

This was precisely why, within the Dark Domain, the simultaneous cultivation of multiple Cloud Clearing Three Techniques was virtually unheard of...

However, the trio maintained their silence on this matter!

For a foolish individual as conceited and self-assured as Ye Chen, it would be a missed opportunity not to extract maximum benefit from him, wouldn't it?

In response to Hong Jin's words, the space before Ye Chen shimmered with light, and a collection of items materialized on the table in front of the three.
