Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2895 - 2894: War God Competition Ends!

Not long after Lin Dong emerged, War God Hei Long located him.

Upon seeing Lin Dong’s safe return, War God Hei Long’s eyes brightened, and he hurried to inquire, "War God Lin, are you unharmed?"

Lin Dong simply shook his head, stating, "I am absolutely fine."

"And what of Tian Sha?" War God Hei Long pressed further.

After a brief pause, Lin Dong revealed to him, "Tian Sha was, in fact, a member of the Blood Clan and has now been eliminated."

"What! Tian Sha was part of the Blood Clan! How utterly despicable! It’s no wonder he meticulously plotted to infiltrate our Dragon Country’s battle area and become one of our district’s participating warriors."

"It is fortunate that War God Lin dispatched him. Had his scheme succeeded, we would all have faced grave peril," War God Hei Long remarked, a shiver running down his spine.

Lin Dong nodded in agreement. If this encounter had gone differently, with Tian Sha defeating Lin Dong and seizing the Water Origin instead,

then everyone else would indeed have been plunged into danger.

It wouldn’t solely be the participating War Gods within the Five Elements Land who would suffer. Even the crucial personnel awaiting them outside, from the various countries’ war departments, would have been at risk.

Should Tian Sha have acquired the 'Water Origin,' his formidable power would have escalated dramatically.

He and Blood Fool would then truly possess the capability to annihilate all who had entered the War God Competition.

And subsequently, drain their very blood!

It was, thankfully, Lin Dong who annihilated both Tian Sha and Blood Fool.

"We should depart now; we can leave this place. The War God Competition is nearing its conclusion," Lin Dong informed War God Hei Long.

War God Hei Long readily agreed, and the two then exited the area.

Without the Water Origin secured, this location ceased to be a restricted zone.

It now bore little difference from any other part of the vast Five Elements Land.

The pair proceeded resolutely towards the exit of the Five Elements Land.

...

Meanwhile, outside the confines of the Five Elements Land, all the assembled war departments maintained their vigil.

Only a few hours remained until the official end of the War God Competition.

In short order, the intense competition would finally conclude.

"Haha, it appears that this time, our Dragon Country War Department has secured the top position," declared Dugu Tian, the Heavenly Envoy of Dragon Country, with a booming laugh.

However, the Heavenly Envoy from Yingjiang Country, standing nearby, pursed his lips and countered, "Lin Dong’s demon beast hunt count has remained static for quite some time. I suspect he has likely met his demise."

"If he were deceased, then naturally, your nation wouldn't be claiming the first rank!"

Dugu Tian scoffed coldly upon hearing this assertion. "If our War God Lin had perished, his accumulated count of hunted demon beasts would have vanished. The fact that it persists clearly indicates he has simply ceased hunting demon beasts thereafter."

"Therefore, the number remains unchanged."

"Dugu Tian, your reasoning holds merit. But do not forget, there exists another plausible scenario. If he was slain by a Demon Emperor, his demon beast tally would also remain unaffected."

"What if he fell victim to a Demon Emperor? I heard whispers of a Five-Star Demon Emperor lurking deep within the Five Elements Land. Its power is said to rival that of a Junior Patriarch. What if Lin Dong, through sheer misfortune, encountered it?" mused the Heavenly Envoy Blade God from Yingjiang Country.

As these words resonated, other representatives from various battle areas chimed in.

"Blade God speaks the truth, Dugu Tian, do not celebrate prematurely!"

"Anything is indeed possible!"

"..."

A collective hope permeated the air among them: that Lin Dong had perished within the Five Elements Land.

Such an outcome would prevent Dragon Country's battle area from achieving the coveted first place.

Yet, even they implicitly acknowledged that the probability of this scenario was relatively slim.

Instead, the likelihood of Dugu Tian's explanation held significantly more weight.

It was highly probable that Lin Dong genuinely believed he had hunted a sufficient number of demon beasts, rendering further efforts unnecessary.

At this very moment, the participating War Gods from all nations' battle areas began to emerge from the Five Elements Land.

When they had entered, each battle area dispatched three War Gods.

However, the number returning was demonstrably different.

A grim reality unfolded: many had perished in this War God Competition. Out of over six hundred entrants, fewer than two hundred successfully emerged.

"Good heavens, the casualty rate this time is absolutely staggering."

"This marks the highest recorded death toll in the history of the competition."

"Two-thirds of the participants lost their lives; it is truly horrifying."

"..."

The sheer intensity of this particular War God Competition was laid bare by these grim statistics.

Among the fallen, some succumbed to the ferocity of demon beasts. Nevertheless, the majority were eliminated by the hands of fellow participating War Gods from rival war departments.

The expressions of those representing the Four Major Battle Zones were exceptionally grim.

This was due to the devastating discovery that not a single War God from the Four Major Battle Zones had survived the ordeal.

From that delegation, Yingjiang Country’s Heavenly Envoy Blade God lamented, "All three of our battle area’s participating War Gods met their end, including the esteemed Senior Lei, who was ranked among the elite tier just below the Junior Patriarch!"

Pravime, the Heavenly Envoy from Yujia Country, also expressed his sorrow, "Similar to you, the esteemed Golden Buddha Kuerzan has also met his demise."

While Golden Buddha Kuerzan hadn't exclusively hunted demon beasts, he had hunted some. It appears his demon beast count has vanished entirely.

This indicates his death, as well!

But who could have been responsible for his demise?

For someone of his stature, who possessed the capability to end him? Could it have been Lin Dong once more?

The Heavenly Envoy from Bear Country's battle zone wore a grim expression. "Our Bear Country's Martial Arts World's Senior Gale Queen has also passed away."

"Who was it? Who had the ability to kill her?"

From the battle area of the Ancient European Country, the Heavenly Envoy added, "Our Senior Dragon Knight Vincent has also been slain. This is infuriating..."

"However, if Lin Dong was the perpetrator, why hasn't his demon beast count increased? It remains stagnant?"

The explanation for this anomaly lies in the unique nature of the Forbidden Land at the Water Origin.

The profound energy emanating from the Water Origin temporarily suspends the 'War God Tokens'' ability to update.

Suddenly, an exclamation broke the tension. "Look, Lin Dong's demon beast hunting number has changed again!"

"Unbelievable! The demon beast counts from Gale Queen, Golden Buddha Kuerzan, Dragon Knight Vincent, and even their own Dragon Country's participating War God Tian Sha, have all been credited to Lin Dong!"

"Impossible? He killed all those individuals?"

"Did he single-handedly eliminate four cultivators below the Junior Patriarch level?"

"Furthermore, has he lost his mind? He even killed his own Dragon Country's participating War God?"

"..."

In truth, Gale Queen and Golden Buddha Kuerzan were not directly killed by Lin Dong. One was vanquished by Dragon Knight Vincent, and the other by Tian Sha.

Nevertheless, the demon beast counts they had accumulated now belong entirely to Lin Dong. This occurred because Lin Dong subsequently defeated both Tian Sha and Dragon Knight Vincent, thus absorbing the demon beast counts of all four individuals.

The progression follows a merciless hierarchy, akin to a large fish consuming smaller ones!

At this precise moment, Lin Dong and War God Hei Long emerged from the Five Elements Land.

Upon witnessing their return, Dugu Tian, the Heavenly Envoy from the Dragon Country's War Department, his face instantly broke into a radiant smile. He cast a glance at the Heavenly Envoys from the Four Great Countries and chuckled.

"I declared it, our War God Lin would emerge perfectly fine!"

With these words, he, along with every soldier from the Dragon Country battle area, bowed deeply, cupping their hands towards Lin Dong's position:

"We welcome War God Lin's triumphant return!"

"Congratulations to War God Lin for securing the undisputed first place on the War God Ranking for the Dragon Country War Department!"

As these pronouncements echoed, the collective voice of the crowd roared in unison:

"Welcome back War God Lin! You have claimed the pinnacle of the War God Ranking!"
