Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain Chapter 2905 - 2904: One Realm Every Two Days

Lin Dong guided Ye Linglong into the mountain valley shortly after their arrival.

Before them stood a three-star demon king, identified as the ’Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger’.

Its massive form dwarfed ordinary tigers, towering over twenty meters in height.

Initially engaged in hunting, the beast’s attention immediately fixed upon Lin Dong and Ye Linglong upon sensing their presence.

"Humans! And two Second Stage Grandmasters, haha, not bad, my luck is truly great."

"It has been far too long since I last savored the taste of human Earth Realm martial artists."

"If I manage to devour you both, I might just break through from this early-stage three-star demon king to the mid-stage."

This creature was an early-stage three-star demon king, a level comparable to an early-stage Third Rank Grandmaster among human cultivators.

Its cultivation realm was clearly a step above Ye Linglong’s.

However, with Lin Dong at her side and armed with techniques he had imparted, Ye Linglong was poised to challenge foes exceeding her own level.

Only through such trials could she truly unlock her combat potential and gain invaluable practical experience.

"Proceed," Lin Dong instructed Ye Linglong.

Nodding in acknowledgment, Ye Linglong advanced, drawing forth the Fourth Order Spirit Rope, the ’Snake Spirit Rope’, a gift from Lin Dong.

This artifact was a fourth-order spiritual treasure, imbued with a nascent spirit and possessing formidable power.

Typically, for Earth Realm martial artists, merely possessing a second-order spiritual artifact was already a remarkable feat.

A third-order spiritual artifact was generally attainable only by those with the deep resources of a Hidden Clan.

For an Earth Realm cultivator to wield a fourth-order spiritual artifact was unheard of, even among the sects of the Hidden Clan, which lacked such riches. Such an item was usually reserved for Heavenly Realm martial artists.

Yet, here was Ye Linglong, now revealing a fourth-order spirit rope.

This revelation caused the Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger opposite her to pause in momentary astonishment.

"Human, you are clearly no ordinary individual. Judging by your features—yellow skin, black hair, black eyes—you must hail from the Dragon Country, Yinghua Country, or perhaps the Paocai Nation?" This Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger demonstrated a surprising awareness of human nations and influential powers.

From Ye Linglong’s appearance, it had inferred her origin from one of these powerful regions.

Ye Linglong responded with a deep, resonant voice, "I represent the Dragon Country!"

"Dragon Country? Could you perhaps be from the direct lineage of the Dragon Country Hidden Clan?" The Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger’s tone shifted to one of apprehension.

Should she indeed be a direct descendant from the Dragon Country Hidden Clan, particularly a significant one, the beast would not dare to provoke her.

If it were to consume her and her clan discovered such an act, even a Secondary Ancestor would likely be incensed.

An enraged Secondary Ancestor possessed the power to annihilate its entire clan.

It recalled a past incident where an entire bloodline of Red Wolves was nearly eradicated after harming a direct descendant of the Dragon Country Hidden Clan, incurring the wrath of a Secondary Ancestor from that very clan.

That Secondary Ancestor had emerged from seclusion, stormed into the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, and nearly wiped out the entire Red Wolf lineage.

They had been utterly annihilated!

Consequently, a sense of unease now gripped the tiger.

It feared that the woman before it might also be a member of the Dragon Country Hidden Clan.

Upon hearing the tiger’s inquiry, Ye Linglong let out a cold snort, "I am not affiliated with the Hidden Clan; my origins are quite ordinary..."

Hearing this, the Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger’s eyes gleamed with renewed intensity, followed by a tiger-roar-like burst of laughter, "Ah, indeed. If you were a truly important direct descendant of the Hidden Clan, surely you would be accompanied by Heavenly Realm martial artists."

"Not merely a ’Second Stage Grandmaster’ acting as your escort. It would seem your acquisition of this fourth-order spirit rope was merely a fortunate coincidence."

"Haha, but your luck ends here, having encountered me. After I devour you, I shall gladly claim that coveted fourth-order spirit rope."

As demon beasts, even those of the demon king rank, naturally did not possess weapons of their own.

To acquire weapons, they were compelled to seize them from humans. How could demon beasts comprehend the art of artifact refining?

Unless they were beings like the Divine Dragon.

Barring such exceptional cases, what other creature possessed the intellect for artifact forging?

Now, observing Ye Linglong’s strength, the beast perceived her as a divine offering.

It truly felt like itself a ’Chosen Beast’.

"Roar~~~" It emitted a thunderous howl and charged towards Ye Linglong.

Ye Linglong moved with agile grace, her green robe billowing softly in the wind, her hands firmly grasping the subtly luminous fourth-order spirit rope, the ’Snake Spirit Rope’.

This Snake Spirit Rope was exceptional in its make, forged from the very soul of a Snake Ancestor and other rare materials.

The artifact possessed the ability to alter its form according to its wielder’s desires, functioning as both an offensive and defensive weapon – an item Lin Dong had previously bestowed upon Ye Linglong.

Facing her was the dominant Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger, ensnared in crackling electrical arcs, its gaze a fiery testament to its thirst for victory and utter disdain for the feeble. As a demon king of the early three-star stage, its might could rend mountains, its speed paralleling the very essence of lightning. Within this territory, it reigned as the uncrowned sovereign, utterly dismissive of human cultivators in the Second Stage Grandmaster realm.

"Swoosh ~~~"

The conflict ignited without delay. Ye Linglong moved with the grace of the wind, weaving through the verdant expanse, expertly leveraging the natural terrain to wage a guerilla war against the formidable Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger. In her grasp, the Snake Spirit Rope appeared to possess a life of its own, morphing fluidly into a coiling serpent or a lashing whip. Their battle raged with ferocious intensity, a near equilibrium maintained between the Thunder Tiger’s electrified claw swipes and tail sweeps, and Ye Linglong’s agile maneuvers. The Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger found itself in a state of disbelief; by all rational accounts, its inherent realm and formidable strength should have allowed it to effortlessly overpower this human female adversary. Yet, Ye Linglong displayed martial prowess that defied conventional understanding.

Fueled by mounting rage and sheer frustration, the tiger resolved to cast aside all restraint and unleash its ultimate technique: the Purple Lightning Heavenly Punishment. A deafening roar tore from the beast’s maw as its body became enveloped in an increasingly ferocious torrent of lightning, seemingly distorting the very fabric of the heavens. A colossal bolt of purple electricity then descended from the sky, its trajectory locked directly onto Ye Linglong’s location.

In that precise, critical juncture, Lin Dong, who had been observing discreetly from the shadows, perceived the peril Ye Linglong faced. Nevertheless, he withheld immediate intervention, recognizing this as a pivotal moment in Ye Linglong’s rigorous training regimen. "Empty your being, fully manifest your defenses, your power, and your resolve. Attain a state of selflessness and combat it with all your might! Only in the crucible of life and death can one achieve the greatest breakthroughs and surmount inner bottlenecks!" Lin Dong’s voice resonated within Ye Linglong’s mind, a guiding whisper through the storm.

Despite confronting a pressure unlike anything she had ever experienced, Ye Linglong did not falter. Instead, she marshaled every ounce of her defensive capabilities and unleashed her full power, the spiritual Qi within her boiling with an almost explosive intensity, threatening to shatter the corporeal limits of her body. Empowered by Lin Dong’s timely exhortation, she synchronized her mind and spirit, forging an even profounder connection with the Snake Spirit Rope. Then, at the precipice of the fatal strike, she reached out and communicated with the very soul of the Snake Spirit Rope!

The spirit within awakened, unleashing a torrent of ancient and potent energy from the Snake Spirit Rope, which surged forth to meld with Ye Linglong’s unyielding will. In an instant, the Snake Spirit Rope erupted in a blinding radiance, transforming into a colossal spectral serpent. Possessing a cataclysmic force, it sliced through the Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger’s vaunted defenses and unerringly struck its heart. With a final, earth-shattering roar, the immense form of the Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger crumpled, surrendering to the void. The jungle slowly reclaimed its silence, leaving in its wake only Ye Linglong’s labored breaths and the Snake Spirit Rope, now serenely coiled around her wrist once more.

From the dissipating form of the Purple Lightning Thunder Tiger, a luminous green orb ascended – the Five Elements Energy contained within. "Now," Lin Dong urged, his voice carrying a renewed sense of urgency, "absorb that energy and commence your breakthrough!"
