Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2685 - 2684: Only Lin Dong Remains

Reflecting on the odd occurrences since stepping into this third trial, Lin Dong suspected a formidable illusion trap was concealed somewhere nearby.

Tang Yun and Yun Ruoxian had clearly tumbled into this illusory domain without a clue, confusing each other for Lin Dong and staging a comical spectacle.

"I need to figure out how to shatter this illusory domain," Lin Dong pondered inwardly. He started scanning the area, hunting for any potential hints.

A foggy mist shrouded the environment. The trees and blooms looked hazy, as though the whole scene was covered by an unseen layer, blurring the line between truth and deception.

All of a sudden, Lin Dong's eyes locked onto an unusual stone stele a short distance away.

Ancient symbols etched on the stele gave off a soft radiance, making it stand out sharply amid the fog.

He rushed over, scrutinizing these symbols with caution.

"These symbols... they appear to form an old incantation..." Lin Dong whispered to himself. Drawing on insights from old tomes, he set about unraveling these symbols.

"Witch script is present here, laced with sorcery!" Lin Dong realized that this illusory domain represented a masterful blend of ancient sorcery and illusion arts. Its maker had built it on deep witch script principles, enhanced by subtle mental manipulations and spatial distortions, forming a realm that blended reality and fantasy.

In this place, landscapes shifted freely, celestial bodies seemed graspable, yet each beam of light and breeze carried deceptions meant to confuse and disorient.

Yun Ruoxian and Tang Yun, who never should have crossed paths, now stood together on a flower-strewn meadow. Vibrant blossoms around them danced in the wind, casting varied hues that merged into shimmering patterns.

Yet danger lurked under this allure. A subtle sorcery essence filled the air, a trace from the domain's architect, disrupting their feelings and the circulation of their inner Qi.

This led them to drown in passion, sinking into a sea of yearning.

Without breaking free from the illusion in mere hours, they would surely perish from the flames of desire.

Just then, Lin Dong glanced at them and noticed their bare forms entwined.

He shook his head swiftly, murmuring, "No, I have to dispel this illusion fast, or they'll perish!"

Lin Dong understood that simple sight and ordinary methods couldn't pierce the veil crafted from witch script.

As he furrowed his brow in frustration, a timeless and enigmatic force stirred silently inside him—a lingering essence of the Sovereign Witch, bridging eras to offer direction.

"Perceive with the soul, direct with will; the essence of witch script demands insight, not mere study." The Sovereign Witch's voice resounded in Lin Dong's mind, like an ancient chime, resonant and deep.

Guided by this force, Lin Dong's vision intensified, as if piercing to the core of existence.

He started viewing the illusory domain through fresh eyes. The previously jumbled glows and noises gradually formed into streaming witch script signs in his mind.

These signs, in light or shadow, linked into an expansive web, upholding the whole illusory domain.

Lin Dong drew in a steady breath, concentrated his thoughts, and gently touched the empty space with his finger, reciting cryptic ancient witch script incantations.

As the words flowed, the air around seemed to quiver. The streaming symbols, responding to his call, slowly rearranged, bursting with brilliant glow.

Within the brilliance, Lin Dong's form faded, as if fusing with the illusory domain before abruptly pulling back, infused with an unfathomable energy.

At last, as the final witch script faded, the illusory barrier shattered with a resounding crash,

at that instant, Tang Yun and Yun Ruoxian's movements halted abruptly, their eyes going blank like emerging from a deep slumber.

Spotting their entangled in such an absurd pose, their cheeks burned crimson, and they hastily pulled apart.

"Lin Dong, what... what just occurred with us?" Tang Yun's tone held a touch of embarrassment and bewilderment.

"You two got ensnared by this illusion," Lin Dong clarified, gesturing to the stele, "These symbols rescued you. Thankfully, with the Senior Sovereign Witch's guidance, I unraveled this trap. If not..."

Yun Ruoxian approached as well. Recalling the events in the illusion and seeing her disrobed state, her face flushed like ripe fruit.

She spun around promptly, fetched garments from her storage pouch, and clad herself in a flash.

Tang Yun followed suit.

Once dressed, the women spotted a sudden luminescence on their forms.

It signified teleportation.

They shared a look, aware they hadn't cleared the third trial!

Still, considering the chaos in the illusory domain, getting sent out now felt like a relief.

At least, it spared them further uneasy encounters with Lin Dong.

Tang Yun and Yun Ruoxian shared a grin, though the earlier discomfort lingered in shy traces, the ordeal had forged a tighter connection in their hearts.

Meanwhile, their eyes turned to Lin Dong.

"Thanks, Lin Dong. Without you, we could have been devoured by desire," Yun Ruoxian voiced her thanks.

Tang Yun nodded too, saying, "Lin Dong, we hope you'll conquer this third trial and claim the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique reward."

Her words barely ended when the glow intensified, and they vanished in transmission.

Upon exiting, they rematerialized at the third trial's threshold.

Aidan, Crescent Wolf Emperor, and Tian Kong waited there.

Spotting Yun Ruoxian and Tang Yun, the trio focused on them.

The Crescent Wolf Emperor remarked, "You couldn't pass the challenge either?"

The pair affirmed with nods.

Then, Crescent Wolf Emperor inquired, "What caused your failure?"

The women traded glances, too mortified to detail the third trial's illusion events.

Yun Ruoxian shifted topics, stating, "Like you all, we got trapped by accident. Lin Dong pulled us out, or we'd be lifeless husks now."

Upon hearing this, Crescent Wolf Emperor and Tian Kong nodded vigorously, declaring, "The third trial's challenge is indeed mysterious and erratic. One wrong move lands you in its snare."

"Fortune favors us with Lin Dong's aid. Now, all four of us are in his debt for our lives."

Tang Yun agreed and added, "I wonder if she can pass that third stage!"
