Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2793: Chapter 2794: Dividing the Territory

Amidst this crowd, there was extreme chaos with as many as four or five clashes going on simultaneously.

However, on the outskirts were some small forces that did not dare enter the core area at all.

Mo Yu and Nameless proceeded along the way without encountering much resistance, nor were they affected by the turmoil.

However, not far away, disciples of major forces were guarding, making it impossible for outsiders to penetrate!

Seeing this, Mo Yu frowned.

Among those guards, there were quite a few in the Martial King realm, so forcing their way through would clearly be a path to death.

”So now you should give up!” Nameless said with a bitter smile.

He was extremely arrogant in the Demon God’s Hall, considering himself a peerless genius, but only upon coming out did he realize his cultivation was virtually nothing.

Just as Mo Yu was about to speak, his expression suddenly changed.

Not far away, two sharp auras had already locked onto them.

By rights, there were quite a few demon race powerhouses here; now this area had become quite unique as demons and other races had already revealed themselves.

Moreover, neither of them had any Demonic Qi on them, so why were they being targeted?

”It’s because of me!” Nameless suddenly said in a deep voice.

Because the two ahead were people he had seen before! At the time, the King of Huainan had given him a list of cultivators to be eradicated by the punitive army, and these two elders were on that list, surprisingly both Deputy Sect Masters of the Dihuang Sect!

These two were both powerhouses at the sixth level of the Martial King realm, with unfathomable strength radiating an aura that instilled fear in the two of them.

”Isn’t this the supreme commander of the King of Huainan? How come you’re so free to get involved in this commotion?” a Deputy Sect Master snorted coldly.

Clearly, they were already aware of Nameless’s defection.

”Even if I was once the supreme commander of the King of Huainan, I have no grievances with the Dihuang Sect, so what is this about?” Nameless said with a gloomy face.

”Whether there is or isn’t any grievance is not up to you to say. If you have any sense, come with us! And the lovely Miss Mo Yu too!” the other Deputy Sect Master said with a sinister smile.

Hearing this, the two of their expressions changed.

Since they could mention Mo Yu’s name, they had clearly discerned their identities! However, they quickly understood; although Ye Luo hadn’t told them, the departure of those two thousand cultivators from the Dihuang Sect was obviously related to the Western Demon Temple! Therefore, their identities could not escape the scrutiny of the Western Demon Temple.

The two exchanged a glance and had no choice but to follow these two elders, as it would clearly be unwise to use the Crown Prince’s order at this time.

Once the Crown Prince’s order was issued, their identity would immediately become known to everyone. Although demons were present here, the ones possessing the Crown Prince’s order were extraordinary, potentially stirring those major figures to action.

Thus, unless it was an extreme circumstance, the Crown Prince’s order could not be invoked.

However, Mo Yu wasn’t particularly anxious, instead feeling a bit delighted; having worried about how to enter this core region, they had now found entry.

But Nameless’s thoughts weren’t as light; now, the two of them were considered to have fallen into the clutches of the Western Demon Temple. Given the years of conflict between the two Demon God Temples, they were not only facing certain death but also inhuman suffering since their statuses were not low, and the Western Demon Temple wouldn’t miss the chance to uncover Eastern Demon Temple’s secrets.

As they entered the core region, they realized the situation here was even more pressing.

The Dihuang Sect occupied only a portion of the area; several major forces, at least five or six, had divided this area.

Each small area was surrounded by cultivators, all on guard, eyeing one another carefully!

Of course, conflicts here weren’t easy to trigger; once they break out, these forces would be thrown into chaos, and the situation would become uncontrollable.

And this Deputy Sect Master led the two straight to an elder!

Immediately, the elder’s aura felt as heavy as a mountain.

A Martial Emperor realm powerhouse! Or at least, someone who had one foot in this realm.

The pair naturally guessed the elder’s identity; it turned out to be the ancestor of the Dihuang Sect.

At such a critical moment, only a strong presence in the Martial Emperor realm could stabilize the situation.

”I didn’t expect to meet emissaries from the Eastern Demon Temple so soon, but this is a significant gain!” the elder said bluntly.

Mo Yu and Nameless’s faces once again turned ugly, indeed, their identities had been exposed.

”But there’s no time to deal with you now. Keep them detained to the side,” the elder said coolly, his gaze still on the red rock layer before him.

On that rock layer, there were as many as seven thousand disciples digging hard, clearly, this layer had been excavated quite deeply, and around it, disciples from other forces were doing the same, just at a much slower pace.

It seemed these forces had reached an agreement, each excavating their territory, leaving the heavenly fate to decide who would obtain the treasure.

Obviously, once the treasure appears, there’ll surely be a fierce struggle, given that it’s unknown how many eyes are watching in secret.

”Ancestor, this rock layer is so thick that it catches us off guard!” an elder suddenly reported, showing a face covered in dirt, having been on the scene himself.

”Oh? This is within reason; after all, the treasure isn’t ordinary. What? Have the other forces begun using any special techniques?” the ancestor asked.

”Indeed, several sects have already used secret techniques and magic artifacts, speeding up considerably!” the elder said anxiously.

After all, they had been digging here for a long time, and if someone got ahead of them, they would’ve labored for others for nothing.

”No rush, instruct them to continue the previous pace, remember ’the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind’,” the ancestor sighed, then surveyed around.

The elder understood this principle, but being the first to breach the rock layer certainly had significant advantages.

Of course, the elder wouldn’t dare defy the ancestor’s orders and could only heed them.

”Hmm?” However, at this moment, the ancestor suddenly raised his head, his gaze becoming sharply intense.

Around them, peripheral cultivators suddenly cried out and cursed, and in the next moment, they began fleeing frantically.

But before they could escape, a large number of soldiers surrounded them, launching indiscriminate attacks on these cultivators, clearly marking the arrival of the punitive army.
