The Divine Urban Physician Chapter 3771: External Power! (Third Update)

Watching Ye Chen's departing figure, Chen Yuanbiao found himself momentarily stunned. Within the Chen family's ancestral hall hung a portrait of their progenitor, depicted only from the back!

A flicker of intense emotion stirred within Chen Yuanbiao's gaze!

The very way Ye Chen departed now bore an increasing resemblance to the progenitor's portrait!

An instinctual shout escaped Chen Yuanbiao: "Wait!"

He moved with incredible speed, appearing directly in front of Ye Chen.

Ye Chen overheard the call, paused his steps, and turned back with a smile. "Master Chen, the gifts I bestow are never taken back."

Chen Yuanbiao's gaze remained fixed on Ye Chen as he suddenly inquired, "Young man, is it possible your surname is Ren?"

A fleeting hint of surprise crossed Ye Chen's face, but he quickly regained his composure, smiling. "Master Chen, what is the meaning of this? How could my surname be Ren?"

Hearing Ye Chen's reply, Chen Yuanbiao seemed to snap back to reality, offering an awkward smile. "Haha, I must be mistaken. Very well, since you are insistent on gifting, I shall accept this Solar Lunar Dragon Transformation Pill on behalf of the association."

Ye Chen nodded, turned to leave, but couldn't help but furrow his brow slightly, asking Xuan Han Yu, "Fairy Xuan, why did Master Chen mention the surname Ren?"

Xuan Han Yu hesitated for a moment before responding, "If my guess is correct, it might be connected to your Senior Ren. It is said that the progenitor of the Dark Domain was also surnamed Ren..."

Ye Chen's gaze flickered; it appeared Ren Feifan's identity was indeed quite intricate.

Not long after, Ye Chen returned to the Black Stone Inn. The moment he reached his room, he collapsed onto the bed and immediately fell into a deep sleep.

Throughout this recent period, he had undergone assessments, poured his heart into alchemy, and finally engaged in a fierce battle against formidable opponents. Not only was his body utterly drained, but his mind was also profoundly fatigued. Truly, a period of proper rest was in order.

The following morning, Ye Chen awoke and stretched languidly, the mental exhaustion having completely vanished.

His gaze darted slightly, and with a wave of his hand, several beams of light shot out, surrounding the room. Astonishingly, these were a set of formation plates and array flags!

This very set of formation tools had been acquired by Ye Chen at the auction; they were of an extremely high martial grade, primarily intended for concealing spiritual energy fluctuations!

Henceforth, whether he was refining Heavenly Rejuvenation Pills or other high-level medicinal pills, it was bound to induce numerous phenomena. He certainly did not wish to attract undue attention from those with ulterior motives.

Therefore, Ye Chen deployed this set of formation devices.

Instantly, a faint curtain of white light shimmered and then vanished around the room. Within this translucent barrier, one could vaguely discern countless densely inscribed runes!

Ye Chen's divine soul swept over the area. After a brief examination, he nodded slightly. Now, the entire room was enveloped by this array formation; no spiritual energy fluctuations should be able to escape.

With that task completed, Ye Chen extended his hand again. A faint purple light materialized before him, rapidly increasing the temperature throughout the entire room!

This purple light was a subtle, faint purple flame!

Upon witnessing this, Ye Chen's expression sharpened. Vast spiritual energy surged forth like a torrent, instantly suppressing the flame. Otherwise, the entire Black Stone Inn might very well melt away in an instant!

This flame was the Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame that Ye Chen had obtained at the auction. Though it hadn't made the list of Outer Realm Divine Fires, it was a flame of truly intimidating caliber!

Even though the Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame emitted surging Fire Spiritual Energy, the white light curtain surrounding Ye Chen flashed, containing this fluctuation. Even Xu Shenglong in the adjacent room felt absolutely nothing.

Ye Chen smiled with satisfaction and murmured to himself, "Mystic Flames, it is time for you to evolve once more."

The very reason Ye Chen had acquired this Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame was to facilitate another evolution of his Mystic Flames!

Upon devouring this Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame, the level of the Mystic Flames would be significantly elevated, reaching the realm of the Outer Realm, and there might even be a slim chance of advancing to a higher tier!

At such a level, the Mystic Flames would break through certain limitations!

In essence, Ye Chen would gain the ability to manifest the Mystic Flames externally for attacks. More importantly, utilizing high-level flames for alchemy would also dramatically increase the success rate of the refinement process!

Therefore, before he could proceed with refining the Heavenly Rejuvenation Pill, Ye Chen absolutely had to upgrade his Mystic Flames first!

Instantly, a ghostly blue flame appeared before Ye Chen and surged towards the Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame. The latter seemed to sense impending danger, its entire being radiating a brilliant purple light with an intense aura, as if preparing to resist the devouring by the Mystic Flames. But alas!

No matter how the Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame struggled, it couldn’t escape the suppression of Ye Chen’s spiritual energy!

Although Mystic Flames are of a lower level, under the suppression, the Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame could only be gradually devoured by the Mystic Flames!

For six hours it lasted, until the very last wisp of the Purple Bamboo Spirit Flame merged into the Mystic Flames...

Suddenly, the entire body of Mystic Flames erupted with dazzling radiance, incredibly strong fire-type spiritual energy surged towards the sky, but under the white array formation’s resistance, from an outsider’s perspective, Ye Chen’s room remained calm!

Ye Chen formed a double hand seal, powerful spiritual energy condensed into a rune before him, falling onto the Mystic Flames, which gradually stabilized under the suppression of vast spiritual energy.

The brilliance receded, revealing a blue-purple flame before Ye Chen, faintly emitting a fierce aura that made one’s heart race!

A hint of joy surfaced on Ye Chen’s face; the Mystic Flames had successfully advanced!

Now, the Mystic Flames had reached the level of an extremely powerful Outer Realm flame, and furthermore, it was of the exceedingly strong category within the first-order!

Ye Chen extended his hand, and the Mystic Flames transformed into a blue-purple ray of light, merging into his palm, creating a blue-purple divine mark on his hand!

When flames become potent enough, they can be freely controlled!

At this point, the fire cultivator would possess a Huo Wen!

For fire cultivators, a Huo Wen is a symbol of their strength!

After absorbing the Mystic Flames, Ye Chen silently released the Burning Blood Technique; the Mystic Flames’ advancement not only allowed him to externalize flames but also increased the power of the Burning Blood Technique by several layers!

His Qi advanced further!

Ye Chen’s gaze flickered; next, he planned to refine the Heavenly Rejuvenation Pill!

This was the crucial task!

Upon successfully refining the Heavenly Rejuvenation Pill, his Heavenly Demon Bloodline would be purified, even elevated, increasing his strength and constitution dramatically!

Additionally, after strengthening, Ye Chen might be able to devour more Moon Liquid Spirit Marrow again!

Thinking of this, even with Ye Chen’s temperament, his gaze couldn’t help but ignite with enthusiasm!

This Heavenly Rejuvenation Pill would allow his power to progress significantly!

Currently, with the remaining Eight Treasures Ghost Buddha Relics, Ye Chen could barely face some formidable existence, but after all, this power was external!
