Urban Romantic Divine Doctor Chapter 1698 - 1695: Show You Your Place

Upon hearing this, Zhang Nian, already showing signs of fatigue, suddenly had her eyes widen. Like dazzling stars igniting in the dark night, their light flickered brightly, sparking a burning, eager fighting spirit.

She had just triumphed over several opponents with superior cultivation levels, and at this moment, her confidence overflowed. The innate, unyielding spirit within her was fully ignited.

She felt a surge of heat throughout her body, wishing she could immediately confront this top-tier Nascent Soul Stage expert and test the limits of her abilities.

Xu Wendong slightly furrowed his brow, keenly perceiving her inner thoughts.

He flashed, a black storm slicing through the air, instantly blocking Zhang Nian’s path.

His expression was serious as he stated solemnly, "You are no match for this old man!"

Zhang Nian lightly snorted, "How will I know unless I try?"

Xu Wendong's mouth curved into a bitter smile. "You have just endured a strenuous battle; your internal cold Qi is nearly depleted, and your body is as weak as a flickering lamp with barely any oil left."

"Forget defeating a Nascent Soul Stage expert; attempting to retreat safely from his grasp would be as difficult as ascending to heaven."

"You must not act recklessly and gamble with your life." His expression grew much more serious at this point.

One had to understand that the Golden Core Stage and the Nascent Soul Stage represented vastly different realms, a disparity as immense as that between the heavens and the earth. Even with Zhang Nian's ability to defeat opponents beyond her level, Xu Wendong doubted she could overcome Master Wudao.

Although Zhang Nian felt immense reluctance, when she met Xu Wendong's deep, undeniable gaze, she finally abandoned the thought of challenging the Nascent Soul Stage expert.

She gracefully stepped aside.

Seeing that Zhang Nian was no longer being obstinate, Xu Wendong slowly turned to face Master Wudao.

At this moment, his black robe fluttered loudly in the fierce wind, his posture erect like a sturdy pine or cypress, standing proudly.

Despite possessing only a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivation, among the assembled experts, he appeared out of place, like a sparrow that had mistakenly flown into a flock of cranes.

However, his aura was by no means weak, as if he were surrounded by an invisible field that deterred anyone from underestimating him.

His gaze was cold, like a solitary star in the dark night, fixed intently on Master Wudao. The corner of his mouth curved into an elusive arc, sharp like a dagger, seemingly mocking yet simultaneously declaring war, sending a chill down one's spine.

Master Wudao observed this and could not help but laugh in extreme anger. The sound, resembling the call of a night owl, was particularly piercing. "Hmph, such audacity! A mere Foundation Establishment ant dares to act so arrogantly before me. Today, I shall demonstrate to you what truly sky-high and earth-thick means!"

With that declaration, the Nascent Soul Stage expert fully unleashed his aura, erupting fiercely and surging outward in waves.

The formidable pressure descended like Mount Tai, engulfing the surroundings and making it difficult for others to breathe, as if intending to crush them alive.

Yet, Xu Wendong appeared unaffected by the towering pressure, remaining calm and composed as if taking a leisurely stroll through a courtyard.

He leisurely raised his right hand, gently forming a fist.

Instantly, an exceptionally peculiar light materialized on his fist.

As the light flowed, mysterious ancient runes briefly appeared, exuding an aura of profound mystery and unfathomability, as if the light itself contained endless secrets.

"Hmph, mere tricks and deception!" Master Wudao snorted coldly. Like a bolt of black lightning, his body erupted, enveloped in boundless spiritual power and fury, lunging directly at Xu Wendong.

His hands moved like two agile flood dragons, the Nascent Soul Force rapidly accumulating in his palms, transforming into incredibly fierce palm winds.

Resembling a world-class sharp blade, wherever it passed, the air seemed like fragile paper, easily torn apart with a piercing sound.

Xu Wendong neither dodged nor retreated, standing firm like an unyielding mountain.

As the palm winds, carrying destruction, approached, he suddenly swung his right fist, meeting the attack head-on like a War God wielding a blade, unstoppable.

A deafening "bang" echoed, like thunder crashing right beside one's ear, shaking and hurting the eardrums.

Where their fists and palms collided, a brilliant light erupted, comparable to a scorching sun, making it difficult to open one's eyes, as if a miniature sun resided within the radiance.

The powerful impact spread outwards like ripples originating from the two, crazily expanding. The ground instantly cracked, resembling a desolate riverbed, sending stones flying like dark projectiles.

Master Wudao was forcefully pushed back several paces, as if struck by a surging tide. His face was etched with disbelief, as though he had witnessed the most impossible event. He couldn't fathom how a junior cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage could possibly withstand his all-out assault. More astonishingly, he found himself on the defensive. This felt like a public humiliation.

Indeed, he was a formidable expert, hovering at the threshold of the Nascent Soul Realm! The disparity in power between them was as vast and unbridgeable as a chasm!

Just as his fury reached its apex, Xu Wendong capitalized on the opening. Moving with spectral swiftness, his figure, like a shadow in the night, closed the distance to Master Wudao in an instant. His fists and feet weaved an intricate dance, each motion imbued with the profound principles of the universe. It was akin to an immortal wielding a sword, his speed so blinding that observers could only perceive fleeting flashes of light.

His techniques appeared deceptively simple, much like an old farmer wielding a hoe, yet they concealed intricate and deadly secrets. Each strike landed upon Master Wudao, causing his vital Qi to churn violently within him, like arrows tipped with hidden blades.

Master Wudao was profoundly shaken. He had never anticipated that a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Peak could prove to be such a formidable opponent. In a moment of desperation, he attempted to unleash the unique spiritual pressure characteristic of the Nascent Soul Stage, hoping to overwhelm Xu Wendong with sheer force.

Instantly, the surrounding atmosphere grew heavy, as if saturated with solid lead, and an invisible pressure wave rolled towards Xu Wendong. Yet, Xu Wendong seemed utterly unfazed, his movements maintaining their fluid agility. He weaved and dodged, slipping through the oppressive spiritual pressure like a nimble eel, instantaneously appearing within inches of Master Wudao.

Then, his left leg shot out like a whip, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, directly targeting Master Wudao's chin. Master Wudao hastily raised his arm to block, but the impact felt like being struck by a colossal hammer. A tingling numbness spread through his limb, causing his internal spiritual power to falter for a crucial moment.

Xu Wendong's assault did not cease. His right fist clenched, its surface radiating an intensifying light, with runes flickering as if on the verge of breaking free. Exploiting a momentary defensive lapse in Master Wudao's stance, he thrust his fist forward with explosive force. This strike seemed to channel the power of the cosmos itself, landing squarely on Master Wudao's chest.

A dull 'crack' resonated through the air. Master Wudao's chest bones audibly fractured. His entire body was flung backward, akin to a kite whose strings had snapped, expelling large gouts of blood that misted the air. The onlookers stared in stunned silence, like statues frozen in disbelief, their eyes wide with astonishment. They could scarcely comprehend how a young expert at the Foundation Establishment Peak had utterly incapacitated a Nascent Soul Stage master, leaving him defenseless. This event completely shattered their established understanding of the world!
