Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2732 - 2731: Battle!

Beneath a crimson sky, the Blood Prison Array functioned like a colossal web, casting a haunting ruby sheen across the entire vicinity.

Amidst this atmosphere thick with blood qi, a figure suspended itself above the formation, appearing like a Demon God torn from the abyss, radiating an overwhelming aura.

It was Xue Chen!

Only now did Lin Dong truly perceive his visage.

With a tall, imposing frame standing as steadfast as a cliff, he was cloaked in dense blood qi, every pore seemingly saturated with limitless potency and murderous intent.

His features were severe, his gaze akin to two frigid stars fixed within the void, shimmering with a piercing radiance that suggested an ability to peer through all worldly deceptions.

Xue Chen’s long hair billowed in the gale like roaring flames, harmonizing with his blood-stained robes to create a chilling, iconic image.

His arms rested loosely at his sides, his fingertips weaving strands of crimson luminescence—a manifestation of his immense blood qi distilled into external form, revealing his peerless majesty.

Hovering high above the Blood Prison Array, he resembled a sovereign ruling over existence, casting his eyes downward upon Lin Dong.

His expression was one of absolute certainty, as if the heavens and earth themselves were compelled to tremble and submit to his command.

A thin smirk graced Xue Chen’s lips, reflecting an unshakable reliance on his own might and a total conviction of his triumph.

He understood that inside this Blood Prison Array, he was the sole master and arbiter; any entity daring to defy him would inevitably be obliterated by the torrential tides of blood qi.

His silhouette stood out brilliantly beneath the blood-colored sky, seemingly blending with reality until he became the most striking centerpiece of the realm.

Within the confines of the array, the blood qi surged and clamored in response to his will, roaring in exultant recognition of his presence.

"Lin Dong, you may have been touted as a genius by the masses, but before me, Xue Chen, you are nothing more than a common insect waiting to be crushed." Xue Chen’s voice resonated through the formation, vast and oppressive.

Under the scarlet heavens, his figure seemed, if possible, even more imposing, appearing inseparable from the fabric of the world itself, standing as an immovable monolith.

Currently, Lin Dong knitted his brows, Inner Qi churning as he watched the hovering Xue Chen with lethal focus.

"Thinking of fleeing?"

Xue Chen gave a cold, mocking smirk, as if the fate of his opponent had already been decided.

"Gao Yang mentioned earlier that you possess the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique. Such an escape art is indeed peerless in this world."

With a slow, taunting tone, Xue Chen continued, "Had you utilized that maneuver without hesitation from the start, a slim margin of survival might have eluded my grasp. However, even with all the clever plans and techniques in your repertoire, it is now far too late."

Lin Dong’s expression flickered, realizing the inherent truth in Xue Chen’s declaration.

The Earth Dragon Treasure Technique, his ultimate ace in the hole, felt as though it were bound by invisible shackles within the array, rendered entirely unusable.

Despite the inner turmoil, his eyes remained locked and steady.

"In this Blood Prison Array," Xue Chen elaborated, his voice darkening, "your Earth Dragon Treasure Technique is merely a fable. This space is severed from the earth itself. Given that the very ground is cut off, how could you possibly employ such a skill?"

A cruel grin spread across Xue Chen’s face, as if he could already envision Lin Dong groveling in despair.

"From this point on, you are nothing but a plaything in my grasp, doomed to be slaughtered in any corner of this prison."

His tone brimmed with such arrogance that he spoke as if Lin Dong’s survival were already entirely at his mercy.

Although tidal waves of tension crashed within him, Lin Dong kept his exterior cool.

He was acutely aware that any display of hesitation would provide an opening for Xue Chen to strike.

Nevertheless, faced with such unchecked confidence, he had to admit that his situation had reached a critical threshold.

"As for defeating me?" Xue Chen scoffed with disdain. "Abandon such delusions at once. Before me, Xue Chen, you are nothing but a sheep bound for the slaughter, with zero hope for victory."

Closing his speech, Xue Chen raised his hand, his fingertips igniting with crimson light—the precursor to a devastating blow.

Amidst the somber, heavy atmosphere of the array, a glint of steel ignited within Lin Dong’s eyes.

He spoke firmly, his voice cutting through the air: "Who said I intend to run?"

Xue Chen appeared momentarily stunned, his eyebrows arching in surprise.

He had fully expected that, faced with a four-star Blood Emperor, Lin Dong would retreat or beg for mercy; this defiance unsettled him.

"I want to see what a four-star Blood Emperor of the Extraterritorial Blood Clan is truly capable of!" Lin Dong’s challenge echoed like a blade drawn in the dark, causing the very space of the array to shudder.

With that, he ceased all hesitation, inhaling deeply as a surge of mighty power erupted from his Dantian.

His hands flew through intricate seals as he chanted softly; immediately, a potent Dragon Blood aura surged from his frame—the activation of the Dragon Blood Sacred Body.

As the transformation took hold, dense Dragon Scales began to manifest upon Lin Dong’s skin, and his eyes transformed into brilliant, celestial star-like pupils.

Moments later, the Dragon Blood Power dormant within him was ignited by a mystical force, surging into a Reverse Scale Transformation—an intense, rising momentum radiating from his core.

Observing this, Xue Chen’s gaze kindled with greed, his face lighting up as if he had chanced upon a priceless artifact.

"So that is it—you actually possess the Dragon Blood Sacred Body! How wonderful!"

Anticipation trembled in Xue Chen’s voice, for he could already imagine his own power skyrocketing after consuming Lin Dong’s flesh.

"In that case, devouring you will not only propel me to a five-star Blood Emperor, but may also grant me profound latent potentials, perhaps even awakening my own Dragon Blood Power..."

Xue Chen’s words were laced with a ravenous hunger for both strength and the prize before him.

Overcome by his own ambition, he broke into a manic laugh.

The sound reverberated through the Blood Prison Array, dripping with hubris and pride, as he envisioned his ascension to a five-star Blood Emperor and beyond.

Yet, unmoved by this display of arrogance, Lin Dong’s determination only hardened.

"The battle is far from over." Lin Dong stated calmly, then exploded forward as a streak of light, launching his assault.

He was determined to test the true limits of this four-star Blood Emperor.
