Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 494: 494 Chapter: Spirit Awakening Convention_1

The brief day quickly passed, and the next day, the entire Miao Village was bustling with activity. Outside the ancestral hall on one side of the village, nearly a thousand people had gathered. All of them were dressed in Miao attire, their faces showing devout expressions as they looked at the ancestral hall, as if there was something inside that they deeply revered.

This ancestral hall was the place where the Miao Tribe venerated their ancestors and was the most respected site for all Miao people.

At this time, everyone from the Miao Tribe had gathered here, whether men, women, old, or young, without exception.

Because today was the day of the Miao Tribe’s Spirit Awakening Ceremony, a tradition that had been carried down through generations.

Whenever the Saintess elected by them reached the age of eighteen, they would hold a Spirit Awakening Ceremony to let the Saintess accept the inheritance of the Miao ancestors, to gain supreme strength, and to protect the entire Miao Tribe.

When the day’s sunlight shone over the entire Miao Village, Clan Leader Miao Chang’an, the Second Elder, and a group of Miao Elders arrived outside the ancestral hall, including Miao Xiaoling, who was dressed in solemn Miao attire, looking incredibly sacred.

”Everyone, today is the day of our Miao Tribe’s Spirit Awakening Ceremony again. Starting today, Xiao Ling will become the true Saintess of our Miao Tribe, protecting the whole tribe and allowing everyone to continue to live in peace and contentment,” Clan Leader Miao Chang’an said.

”Saintess, awaken and protect our Miao Tribe!”

”Saintess, awaken and protect our Miao Tribe!”

All the people of the Miao Tribe knelt on the ground, saying reverently and devoutly.

”Alright, let’s go in,” Miao Chang’an said, leading the way into the ancestral hall, followed by Miao Xiaoling, then the Second Elder, as well as three white-haired old men, while the others stood solemnly outside.

Inside the ancestral hall, there were many spirit tablets, and there was also a huge bronze statue, which was the statue of Chi You, the ancestor of the Miao people.

”Today, Miao Tribe Clan Leader Miao Chang’an brings the new Saintess, Xiao Ling, to receive the Spirit Awakening inheritance ceremony. We humbly pray for the protection of our ancestor,” Miao Chang’an said respectfully to the statue.

Following that, Miao Chang’an, the Second Elder, and the other three elders took their places around Miao Xiaoling, sitting cross-legged on the ground, their hands constantly forming seals, while muttering arcane and difficult-to-understand words, each radiating a unique aura.

Streams of white light emanated from the five of them, converging on Miao Xiaoling’s body, at which her complexion changed, and her eyes closed tightly.

At the same time, the bronze statue also released a white light that enveloped Miao Xiaoling, as if it was transforming her body.

Meanwhile, Ye Luo, with his Clairvoyant Eye, was observing all this. He didn’t quite understand this so-called Spirit Awakening inheritance, but he could feel that the white light contained extremely terrifying spiritual energy, and it was incredibly pure.

If he could absorb this spiritual energy, his strength would undoubtedly surge, but that was impossible.

”Come, I will now help you all drive away the Soul-eating Gu,” he suddenly said to Nie Yuntian and the others.

”Ye Luo, can the Soul-eating Gu really be driven out?” Nie Yuntian asked in amazement.

”For me, the Divine Doctor, nothing is impossible,” Ye Luo replied with a hint of a smile, as he took out a Silver Needle and began to help them drive out the Soul-eating Gu.

Although this Soul-Devouring Gu was quite special, and it hid within the brain, Ye Luo’s medical skills combined with the ability of his Clairvoyant Eye were still capable of driving it out; however, it was much more troublesome than the Gu Insects he had dealt with before.

It took more than twenty minutes before Nie Yuntian and the others’ Gu Insects were finally expelled from their brains by Ye Luo, and he similarly eradicated the Gu from his own brain.

However, as Ye Luo was helping everyone to exorcise the Gu Insects, his expression suddenly changed, his Clairvoyant Eye swept over the area, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes.

”You all stay here, don’t go out. Kuang Xiong, you come with me,” Ye Luo said, taking Kuang Xiong with him as he left the area.

Outside Miao Village, an invisible murderous intent was spreading. Hundreds of blood wolf Heavenly-Level Assassins appeared, each with strength above the Innate Realm, holding sharp knives and exuding a fearsome murderous aura. Leading them were Xue You and Xue Hai.

”It’s been so long since I’ve seen any action. Today I’m going to properly exercise my muscles and see if my skills have gotten rusty,” Xue Hai said with a sinister face, and beside him, Xue You’s eyes twinkled with malevolence.

Now Ye Luo had come directly outside the clan ancestral hall, and everyone’s gaze turned toward him.

”How did you get out?” Miao Lie looked at Ye Luo with a changing expression and barked fiercely, ”Someone, capture him!”

”Hold on, something’s wrong. The blood wolf assassins have already arrived at Miao Village. Notify your Clan Leader immediately,” Ye Luo urgently said.

”Hmph, the Clan Leader is helping the Saintess awaken her spirit, and he must not be disturbed. Besides, what are you blabbering about, blood wolves? I think you’re just looking for a chance to escape. Seize him,” Miao Lie ordered coldly.

”Ah, why won’t you believe me?” Ye Luo’s expression was one of helpless frustration.

Just then, a violent booming sound came from inside the ancestral hall, and a massive oppressive force burst forth, encompassing the area around the entire hall.

Every member of the Miao Tribe present was so overwhelmed by this massive pressure that they were forced to kneel on the ground. Kuang Xiong beside him could hardly withstand this terrible pressure, and suddenly knelt down, his face pale.

Ye Luo also felt the terrible force of this pressure, his legs trembling, almost forced to kneel as if the weight of Mount Tai was upon him.

However, the nine exceptional meridians inside Ye Luo’s body burst forth with a powerful strength that actually neutralized this fearsome pressure. He felt no pressure at all, while everyone else was sweating profusely and buckling under this formidable oppressive force.

Ye Luo seized the opportunity to rush into the ancestral hall, and soon after a deafening sound echoed from inside.

Following that, a strong aura spread from Xiao Ling’s body; Miao Chang’an, the Second Elder, and three other Elders were all shaken to the ground by this aura, blood spilling from the corners of their mouths, while an aura of absolute sanctity dispersed around Xiao Ling.

Ye Luo, having walked in, looked at Xiao Ling and could not sense any True Qi from her, but he felt an incredibly terrifying might from her, which puzzled him greatly.

Then Miao Xiaoling opened her eyes, looking at Ye Luo in surprise, ”Brother Ye, how come you’re here?”

”Now’s not the time to discuss that. The group of assassins who kidnapped you have already entered Miao Village,” Ye Luo hastily said.

”What?” Miao Xiaoling’s expression changed, her gaze shifting over to Miao Chang’an; seeing him injured, she quickly approached and said anxiously, ”Father, are you okay?”

”I’m fine. It’s just that assisting you in your spiritual awakening drained a great deal of strength from the five of us.”
