The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3767: Mysterious
Previously on The Divine Urban Physician...
Faced with Lin Ku’s presence, Chen Yuanbiao’s complexion instantly drained of color. Though Lin Ku had yet to make a move, the mere aura emanating from him, akin to a sovereign presiding over his domain, starkly revealed the chasm in martial prowess between himself and Chen Yuanbiao!
Yet, at this critical juncture, Ye Chen's voice drifted, calm and measured, "If that is the case, then ending your life will not be entirely without merit."
A profound stillness descended.
Even the ambient wind seemed to hold its breath!
The very dust motes hanging in the air appeared to have frozen in place!
The moment Ye Chen uttered those words, an audible gasp swept through the entire assembly!
What was this young man implying?
Could there truly be any value in eliminating Lin Ku?
The two formidable individuals who accompanied Lin Ku were acknowledged Masters of Cloud Clearing, possessing mastery over the Fate Calling and Heavenly Observation Techniques, both recognized as highly skilled Intermediate Cloud Piercers!
It was largely due to the assistance of these two that Lin Ku managed his successful escape from Cangzhou!
While Ye Chen imparted a distinctly unsettling aura, making it difficult for them to precisely gauge his true strength, they were nonetheless certain of one fact!
Ye Chen’s cultivation had definitively not surpassed the Heavenly Repairing Realm!
He hadn't even attained the Holy Ancestor Realm, let alone!
Could this be true?
And yet, he possessed the audacity to boast, proclaiming his intent to vanquish Lin Ku?
Conversely, Chen Yuanbiao grew increasingly agitated!
What was Ye Shitian attempting to achieve now?
Choosing to provoke Lin Ku at such a precarious moment?
Should Lin Ku decide to act with unrestrained fury against him, even Chen Yuanbiao, exerting his full might, might find himself incapable of containing Lin Ku!
In the subsequent instant, Lin Ku erupted into laughter!
He found it utterly astonishing that anyone would dare address him in such a manner?
Even the operatives from the Dark Mansion he had previously annihilated were merely negligent; they had refused his offer of service and, as a consequence, endured nine days and nights of relentless torture, employing the most cruel methods until their very bodies and souls were utterly obliterated. Their desiccated corpses were then gruesomely displayed at the Council Mansion's entrance, a stark testament to the dire consequences of incurring Lin Ku's wrath!
And now, this mere youth dared to declare his intention to kill Lin Ku, right before his very eyes?
Suddenly, Lin Ku's laughter abruptly ceased. His eyes blazed with a blood-red hue, resembling a harbinger of death itself. He fixed a ferocious gaze upon Ye Chen, a terrifying wave of killing intent surging towards him like a roaring tempest!
However, the formidable killing intent, which ordinary cultivators of the Heavenly Repairing Realm would find unbearable, had absolutely no discernible effect on Ye Chen!
Ye Chen turned his head slightly, addressing Chen Yuanbiao in a soft tone, "Master Chen, I implore you to exert your utmost effort to hold Lin Ku at bay... just three breaths of time will suffice."
Chen Yuanbiao’s eyes flickered, his face turning ashen. He remained uncertain of Ye Chen’s ultimate objective, but gazing upon Ye Chen's countenance, for reasons inexplicable, the mental image of the Dark Domain Ancestor, a figure he had repeatedly envisioned, grew increasingly vivid in his mind!
Even he couldn't comprehend why he found himself instinctively nodding in agreement to Ye Chen's request!
Precisely at that moment, Lin Ku initiated his attack!
His spiritual energy surged with unbridled intensity, and with every motion he made, the phenomena of the heavens, the ambient temperature, and every element within the graveyard's vicinity underwent continuous transformation!
The unseen power of Heaven and Earth, under Lin Ku's command, transmuted into streaks of dark blue radiance, swirling ceaselessly around his form!
Ye Chen's eyes flickered, comprehending that Lin Ku's manipulation of every minute particle of spiritual energy was, in fact, directly influencing the fundamental laws of this realm!
In essence, the very fabric of reality here was being reshaped by Lin Ku's power, transitioning from an invisible force to a visibly tangible one!
In such a scenario, any ordinary martial artist confronting Lin Ku would likely struggle to unleash even one percent of their true potential!
This was Ye Chen's inaugural encounter with an assassin of such formidable caliber from the Dark Domain; even he couldn't help but experience a degree of shock!
At this precise moment, standing against Lin Ku, he harbored a fleeting, disquieting illusion that the very trajectory of his life was being dictated by external forces!
But!
Even more astounded than Ye Chen, however, was Lin Ku himself!
Initially, the fact that his unleashed killing intent had no impact on Ye Chen was surprising enough. Yet now, it seemed even his explosive power, which commanded the very laws of existence through the force of the Heavenly Dao, was having a negligible effect on Ye Chen?
For reasons beyond his comprehension, no matter how he manipulated the inherent laws to suppress Ye Chen, it appeared utterly impossible to even subtly displace Ye Chen's resolute presence!
This individual is suspiciously anomalous, wouldn't you agree?
Meanwhile, as Lin Ku's focus momentarily wavered, Chen Yuanbiao let out a fierce cry, simultaneously unleashing a monstrous wave of his own aura!
Under Chen Yuanbiao's precise control, waves of vital energy subtly coalesced, actively counteracting Lin Ku's formidable power!
A spectral, gray-white Wooden Sword materialized in Chen Yuanbiao's grasp. From it flowed an intensely pure sword qi, as his immense spiritual energy rapidly flowed into the Wood Sword. Suddenly, the piercing cry of a phoenix echoed from within, and the spectral image of a white phoenix manifested upon its surface!
Chen Yuanbiao bellowed, "Phoenix Dance Immortal Slaying Sword!"
As his physical form seemed to expand, the Wood Sword began to spin with violent velocity. The ghostly white phoenix grew increasingly defined, its resplendent might shaking the very foundations of heaven and earth. The overflowing sword light converged boundless essence, storming towards Lin Ku in conjunction with Chen Yuanbiao's swift movements!
Trailing behind Lin Ku were two late-stage Heavenly Repairing Realm Cloud Clearing Masters. Struck by the power of nomology, the boundless sword qi immediately caused them to spew blood and stagger back. They were not Ye Chen; facing such a strike from an entity, they possessed no means to resist!
Even with Lin Ku's protection, if he hadn't intervened, a mere trace of the sword's might would have been enough to claim their lives!
Lin Ku's eyes flickered, his smirk deepened, and he taunted, "Is this the power of the Vice President of the Netherworld Cloud Clearing Association?"
In the next moment, a lifelike azure flood dragon coiled around Lin Ku, and an endless, ferocious might emanated from his body, completely nullifying Chen Yuanbiao's sword pressure!
The two Cloud Clearing Masters finally managed to regain their footing!
Lin Ku glanced at them and commanded, "Leave the old man to me. You two deal with that peculiar brat first!"
If this incomprehensible brat remained alive for even one more second, Lin Ku's unease would increase by a significant measure!
At this precise moment, the White Phoenix Sword Light also reached Lin Ku's position!
Lin Ku suddenly roared fiercely, "Azure Flood Dragon Sky Slaying Fist!"
The potent fist technique surged forth, azure light blazed from Lin Ku's fist. The azure flood dragon that encircled Lin Ku let out a roar, and as Lin Ku threw his punch, he clawed directly at the white phoenix!
In an instant, the white phoenix and the azure flood dragon collided!
A blinding radiance suddenly illuminated the midnight graveyard as if it were the height of day!
The White Phoenix Sword Light let out a mournful cry, shattered into pieces under Lin Ku's formidable punch!
Chen Yuanbiao's expression shifted drastically. Shouting furiously without pause, he danced his Wooden Sword frantically. Only by unleashing three consecutive swings was he able to cautiously fend off Lin Ku's devastating strike!
A trickle of blood appeared at the corner of his mouth!
Despite being of the same cultivation realm, the disparity in their power was immense!
To be precise, Lin Ku was simply too overwhelmingly strong!
Meanwhile, the two Cloud Clearing Masters exchanged a look, their eyes hardening with ferocity as they swiftly charged towards Ye Chen!
