Urban Super Medical Sage Chapter 2048 - 2144: Battle! Battle!! Battle!!! (Double Update)

With a single Zhan Cang Sword, in the span of a breath, Su Chen annihilated nine members of the Imperial Family, including Di Hong, the Great Elder of that lineage!

This Great Elder, holding a formidable position within the Imperial Family, had his heart impaled by the Zhan Cang Sword while still alive. Until his dying moment, Di Hong remained in a state of utter Divine Soul collapse. The thought that he, Di Hong, would perish, and so effortlessly, as if swatted like a mere insect, was beyond his comprehension.

Another breath later.

Though it was merely a single breath, for the remaining members of the Imperial Family, it felt like an eternity had stretched into billions of years. The anguish, the sheer terror, the overwhelming despair, the surging panic...

"No!!!" Di Jie’s wail was a desperate cry of absolute despair.

The Imperial Family.

It was finished.

In merely one breath, a single, fleeting breath, the Zhan Cang Sword Array had obliterated twenty individuals from the Imperial Family.

Aside from Di Jie himself, the Great Elders Di Kuang, Di You, and Di Ge.

Everyone else, including Di Hong, was now deceased.

Not a single soul remained.

No remains were left behind.

Only the stark crimson of death.

Only a crimson rain and mist stained the air.

Even Di Ge and Di You, though still breathing, were severely wounded, their arms, shoulders, and chests drenched in blood and mangled. Their faces were ashen, their bodies bearing grievous injuries.

Faced with a single strike, they hadn't even registered what happened before the Imperial Family was all but eradicated!

It's important to remember, within the entirety of the Imperial Family, excluding Di Jie, Di Deijin, and the Old Ancestors, there were only thirty-six martial cultivators at the Human Lord Realm. All thirty-six were dispatched to the Mother River in pursuit of Su Chen. Now, from that contingent, only Di Kuang, Di You, and Di Ge endured. The remaining thirty-three, all perished!

Every single one of them was dead!

Pfft...

Di Jie expelled a mouthful of blood, his fury a boiling cauldron.

Di Jie’s teeth were clenched so hard they shattered, swallowed down his throat.

Di Jie’s gaze was fixed on Su Chen, a hatred so profound it defied description consuming him.

A hatred that bordered on the pathological.

A loathing so intense it threatened to shatter Di Jie’s sanity, his hair standing on end, as dishevelled as if he had fallen into Deviation.

Di Jie’s eyes weren’t merely red; they wept tears of blood.

The Imperial Family, with its heritage spanning billions of years, was annihilated!!!

Destroyed by Su Chen, and him alone!

He, Di Jie, was the most egregious sinner in the Imperial Family's immemorial history!

At this very moment, Su Chen stood calmly, the ninety-nine Imperial Soldiers having already returned to his side.

Utterly content.

The might of the Zhan Cang Sword Array was terrifying. To slay any martial cultivator below the Sixth Level of the Human Lord Realm was akin to slicing through vegetables, dispatching them instantly!

If directed against a single opponent rather than a multitude, the Zhan Cang Sword Array possessed the capability to completely obliterate even cultivators at the Seventh or Eighth Level of the Human Lord Realm.

Truly formidable.

Truly unconquerable.

"Di Jie, back then, when I sabotaged your celestial punishment plans on the Divine Martial Continent, you should have taken me seriously, but alas, you thought little of me." Su Chen spoke, his tone level.

Su Chen’s words brought forth a regret in Di Jie so intense he wished to impale himself.

At that time, although Su Chen had disrupted the Imperial Family's machinations on the Divine Martial Continent, within the eyes of the Imperial Family's members, Su Chen was merely the dust on an ant's leg.

Insignificantly weak.

So feeble that even a lowly servant of the Imperial Family could have extinguished Su Chen ten thousand times over with a mere puff of air.

Yet, precisely because Su Chen was so negligible then, all the Imperial Family members disregarded him. Compounded by the approaching rest period of the Mother River, the Imperial Family’s entire focus shifted to the Crystal of the Mother River. Who could have foreseen, in merely these past years?

In the blink of an eye.

The dust on that ant had swollen to become larger than an elephant!

Di Jie’s regret was akin to his heart being submerged in molten lava.

"Kill!" The next moment, Di Jie bellowed, a maddened roar echoing forth.

As he uttered the command.

Di Jie himself launched his attack.

"Emperor’s Divine Punishment!!!" The instant Di Jie moved, he unleashed his full power, operating at one thousand percent capacity.

Emperor’s Heavenly Punishment, the supreme technique of the Imperial Family.

This formidable skill could only be mastered by the head of the Imperial Family.

It was this technique that largely fueled the relentless pursuit of the Imperial Family by that other clan, as they all craved the Emperor’s Divine Punishment.

Ever since his confirmation as family head, Di Jie had dedicated himself to cultivating this move, expending a staggering 370,000 years merely to achieve rudimentary comprehension. And one must understand, Di Jie, as the family head, like every generation before him, was an exceptionally monstrous talent, yet it still required 370,000 years for basic mastery. One can only imagine the sheer abnormality of this technique.

Upon attaining mastery, Di Jie had only employed it once. On that singular occasion, within the Void, a single strike of the Emperor’s Heavenly Punishment effortlessly annihilated a Void Behemoth.

At this moment, Di Jie was truly out of control, completely out of control, executing this move. Did he not know that executing this move would cause immense destruction to the front segment of the Mother River? Did he not know that executing this move would completely expose the Imperial Family’s hiding place, attracting their ancient enemy that has been chasing them for billions of years?

Di Jie was truly going mad, reckless; as long as he could kill Su Chen, nothing else mattered. His eyes were wide open, purplish-red, locked onto Su Chen.

And the Emperor’s Divine Punishment had already been launched.

In an instant, the purplish-red color stained the entire Mother River, and the breath of thunder infiltrated every air molecule of the Primeval River Storm.

The scent of destruction burned richly, almost condensing into tangible entities.

A massive palm seal-like purplish-red punishment, as if dripping blood, dripping purplish-red blood, pressed towards Su Chen...

The passage it took became void and extinct; even the Primeval River Storm was pierced through, the front segment entirely pierced through, leaving only crack upon crack.

Simultaneously as Di Jie made his move.

Di Kuang, Di You, and Di Ge also made their moves.

"Nine Deaths Withered Wood Palm!"

Di Kuang shouted slowly but forcefully, as the ancient palm seal struck with a roar.

That palm seal was gray and aged, full of an endless sense of time.

One palm pressed down, as if a supreme martial plane was suppressing down.

Unleashing its strength to its utmost extent.

Simultaneously, accompanied by high-level gravity rules.

As the palm descended, another crack appeared in the front section of the Mother River.

Although Di Kuang’s strength was considerably less than Di Jie, he was still a presence at the Seventh Level of the Human Lord Realm!

Unimaginably formidable.

The Nine Deaths Withered Wood Palm is a technique the first-generation head of the Di Family acquired at tremendous cost, spending millions of divine liquid pieces at a renowned Eight Desolations auction house in the Grand Cosmos World.

Currently, in the entire Di Family, only Di Kuang and an elderly ancestor at the brink of the end of life had successfully cultivated it.

Next were Di You and Di Ge.

Both executed the Emperor Divine Sword.

The strongest swordsmanship of the Di Family.

Both had cultivated the Emperor Divine Sword to the level of Perfection, yes, Perfection.

Moreover, both had added fierce rules to this sword.

At this moment.

Whether it was Di Jie’s 'Emperor’s Heavenly Punishment', Di Kuang’s 'Nine Deaths Withered Wood Palm', or Di You and Di Ge’s 'Emperor Divine Sword'.

All targeted directly towards Su Chen.

Escaping was impossible for Su Chen; considering the strength of Di Jie and the other three, their moves were as fast as instantaneous movement.

How could he dodge?

He could only fight head-on.

Yet from beginning to end, Su Chen had no intention of avoiding.

Only the intent for battle.

Only that boiling, intense, burning battle intent.

In an instant.

Su Chen suddenly lifted his head.

"Kill!!!" Su Chen uttered one word.

The Zhan Cang Sword Array roared violently, like ninety-nine dead soldiers howling hoarsely.

Then.

Ninety-nine swords of imperial soldiers surged wildly.

The sword path surged ferociously.

Facing it directly.

Accompanied by the transcendent first level of the Strange Change Formation’s attack.

In the blink of an eye.

An encounter.

Di Jie and the other three’s ultimate hidden moves formed a purplish-red collaborative attack ring, an elliptical light ring, one that would tear everything apart; even the Primeval River Storm dared not go near it.

While the Zhan Cang Sword and ninety-nine swords of imperial soldiers also formed a light ring, one that was black, a dark black, silent, and chilly black light ring.

The two great light rings crossed paths.

When they crossed.

Evidently, the black light ring quivered and the black started to dissipate.

"Little brat!!! You lost! I guarantee, I will torture you for eons, making you the person who yearns most for death in the Myriad Realms!" This scene fell into Di Jie’s eyes, his eyes lit up abruptly, like two searchlights igniting, exceedingly dazzling.

Di Kuang, Di You, and Di Ge were all extremely excited.

Indeed.

Excited.

Su Chen had frightened them so much that their souls almost fled; even with their combined forces, the four great old monsters weren’t particularly confident deep down; uncertainty lingered.

But at this moment, with the real confrontation.

Clearly, Su Chen was still lacking by a margin.

That was enough.

Lacking a margin meant death.

The result was predetermined.

The trembling, dimming, and crack-spreading black light ring decided everything.

"Is that so? Did I lose?" In the same second, the evil, deathly, cold, playful curve at the corner of Su Chen’s mouth expanded suddenly.

Meanwhile.

"Go!" Su Chen's voice echoed with a vibration.

The Chaotic Divine Thunder, the Divine Demon Ghost Fire, and the Chaotic Current – these Three Great Cosmic Treasures – were instantly activated. Su Chen refined them directly, channeling them into the Zhan Cang Sword Array.

Instantly.

The black, elliptical halo of the Zhan Cang Sword Array, which had been dissipating and fading, burst forth with a dense, vast, and solidified blackness, reaching its absolute limit!

Indeed, the Zhan Cang Sword Array possessed immense strength.

After all, it comprised ninety-nine imperial soldier swords, with one spiritual imperial weapon among them, making it truly formidable. Furthermore, Su Chen's soul, which controlled the sword array, was unimaginably powerful, coupled with the miraculous nature of the Strange Change Formation.

Thus, even without the Three Great Cosmic Treasures, the Zhan Cang Sword Array's power was sufficient to obliterate dozens of cultivators below the Sixth Level of the Human Lord Realm and easily inflict severe injuries upon Di Ge and Di You.

Yet, when confronted with the combined life-risking ultimate attack from Di Jie and the other three, it still fell short.

But.

The Zhan Cang Sword Array could still integrate the Three Great Cosmic Treasures!

Couldn't it?

With the addition of the Three Great Cosmic Treasures, the Zhan Cang Sword Array's might would elevate severalfold.

Even those at the Ninth Level of the Human Lord Realm would likely have to retreat, wouldn't they?

Who were Di Jie and the other three, really?!
