Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2829 - 2828: See You Again, White-clothed Blood Monk

"War God Lin, your demon beast hunt count has alarmingly surpassed thirty thousand."

Displaying undisguised awe and admiration, War God Hei Long, adorned in battle armor, spoke.

Lin Dong, through his own formidable power, had annihilated tens of thousands of demon beasts in a mere five days.

This staggering number had not only shattered previous War God Competition records but completely dwarfed them by several magnitudes.

Previously, no participant had even approached the ten-thousand mark.

Lin Dong’s achievement of thirty thousand in just five days was genuinely terrifying.

"Given this immense tally of demon beasts, even if you hunt no more in the remaining five days, I estimate no one will be able to surpass you," War God Hei Long continued.

Lin Dong gave a slight nod in response.

"Therefore, my focus will shift. I do not plan to specifically hunt demon beasts anymore."

"Instead, I intend to leverage the unique characteristics of my spiritual power domain to meticulously explore the entirety of the Five Elements Land and compile a comprehensive map."

"Through this systematic process of elimination, I aim to pinpoint the location of the origin power."

Lin Dong’s voice was measured and unwavering, his gaze seemingly piercing the spatial mists to perceive the profound secrets concealed within the Five Elements Land.

The spiritual power domain was an extraordinary ability he had acquired after his mental power ascended to the fortieth level.

It enabled him to detect subtle variations imperceptible to others, rendering it an invaluable instrument for navigating unknown territories.

Even other figures at the sub-ancestor level possessed no comparable ability within the Five Elements Land.

"I intend to employ this method to locate the origin power." The origin power represented the coveted treasure for all martial artists, embodying the very source of power—the crucial key to shattering existing realms and breaking through bottlenecks to ascend to higher realms of the Martial Way.

Lin Dong was acutely aware that to rapidly achieve the might of a Triple-Heaven Martial Artist, securing and mastering this origin power was paramount.

Only through this means could he swiftly attain the caliber of a Triple-Heaven Martial Artist.

Otherwise, relying solely on his own cultivation for a breakthrough would demand an extended period, potentially years.

Without the intervention of exceptional opportunities, even a single year might prove insufficient.

Upon hearing Lin Dong’s strategic declaration, War God Hei Long repeatedly nodded in agreement.

He fully comprehended the critical significance of the origin power for Lin Dong’s advancement.

Consequently, the two readily concurred, deciding to embark on their expedition to explore and seek the origin power without delay.

While the Five Elements Land might not be vast in scale compared to the expansive Extraterrestrial Battlefield, it was nonetheless riddled with enigmatic restrictions.

A prime example was the limitation imposed on everyone’s sensing range.

Most individuals could only perceive within a mere few kilometers. Such a restricted sensing radius rendered a comprehensive exploration of the Five Elements Land within the ten-day timeframe virtually impossible.

In contrast, Lin Dong, armed with his spiritual power domain, possessed a sensing capability spanning hundreds of miles, enabling him to survey the entire Five Elements Land within the stipulated ten days.

"I have already surveyed the eastern expanse, yet the origin power remains elusive. What form could this origin power possibly take?"

After meticulously exploring over half of the eastern region within the Five Elements Land without locating the origin power, Lin Dong decided to lead War God Hei Long towards the western territories.

To be perfectly frank, he had no definitive understanding of the origin power’s manifestation.

Was it an amorphous mass of energy, perhaps akin to a spiritual vein, or did it possess a distinct biological form?

Regardless of its appearance, its proximity to Lin Dong would invariably trigger his senses.

Thus, another day dawned and passed.

Within the sprawling, dense forest, Lin Dong and War God Hei Long advanced stride by stride, their gazes sharp and determined, as if capable of penetrating the veils of time itself.

The morning sunlight, filtering through the scattered clouds, cast a dappled luminescence upon them, imbuing their solitary quest with a touch of warmth.

However, this newfound tranquility was short-lived. A formidable aura abruptly shattered the surrounding serenity, surging like an unseen tide along with the terrifying pressure characteristic of the first echelon beneath the sub-ancestor level, causing the very air to seem to thicken.

Lin Dong’s heart constricted, his brow furrowing as he clearly perceived the ancient and potent energy emanating from this aura, an energy that felt strangely familiar.

War God Hei Long also adopted a grave expression, his eyes gleaming with cautious vigilance. He spoke softly to Lin Dong, "War God Lin, this aura is exceptionally fearsome. Though I can only sense a faint trace, it feels as though I am confronting the heavens themselves."

Just as the two prepared themselves for an imminent confrontation, an ethereal and clear Buddhist chant, akin to a celestial melody, pierced the forest’s silence and drifted towards them:

"Amitabha. Benefactor Lin Dong, we meet once more."

Accompanying this resonant voice, a figure draped in immaculate monk’s robes slowly emerged from the deeper recesses of the forest.

He moved with graceful, unhurried steps, appearing to tread upon the very void, leaving no discernible trace of his passage.

Golden sunlight, filtering through the leaves, cast a warm glow upon him, enhancing his already transcendent and extraordinary presence.

His demeanor was serene and profound, his eyes shimmering with a deep wisdom and compassion, as if he grasped the entirety of the world's suffering and its underlying causes.

This monk, clad in white, was none other than the revered figure known as the unparalleled White-clothed Blood Monk, the top-ranked individual on the Five Elements Stele.

His very arrival seemed to still the ambient dust, enveloping the ancient landscape in an aura of solemnity and sacredness that was utterly profound.

Witnessing this, War God Hei Long's draconic eyes narrowed sharply, his face etched with unconcealed shock and disbelief. "It's you! The White-clothed Blood Monk! The number one on the Five Elements Stele! How can you be here?" he exclaimed.

His voice, tinged with an undeniable edge of fear and reverence, betrayed his own status as a War God, yet he clearly held a deep-seated dread and respect for this legendary cultivator.

This was the battleground beyond the domain, a formidable entity that no other expert could possibly bypass.

Even for War God Hei Long, countless legends of the White-clothed Blood Monk had been heard.

The White-clothed Blood Monk offered a gentle smile, one that radiated warmth and inclusivity, possessing the power to dissolve all worldly strife and coldness. He did not direct his gaze at War God Hei Long, but instead kept his eyes fixed upon Lin Dong.

With a deliberate motion, he raised his hand, forming a Buddhist mudra. He spoke, his voice calm and resonant:

"Benefactor Lin Dong, it has been a long while. Perhaps our encounter today is merely another turn of fate's wheel. May we all embrace compassion and navigate these trials as one."

As his words filled the air, a subtle Buddha's light radiated from him, gradually dissipating the intense tension that had ensnared War God Hei Long.

Under the benevolent illumination of the Buddha's light, War God Hei Long noticed that all his apprehension and fear vanished without a trace.

It was replaced by an overwhelming sense of peace and profound harmony.

Observing these mystical methods, Lin Dong, standing nearby, couldn't help but feel a sense of secret admiration.

"This White-clothed Blood Monk is truly extraordinary. Although I managed to best him in our previous encounter, in a genuine battle to the death, who can truly say who would emerge victorious?" Lin Dong mused inwardly.
