The Divine Urban Physician

”Break!” Lin Yaqin swung her sword and struck at the fog dragon claw.

The sword energy sliced through the air with a sharp whistle. It transformed into a terrifying river of blood that appeared to surge forth from the underworld. It carried immense force, rolling violently and crashing ruthlessly into the fog dragon claw.

There was a deafening explosion!

The surroundings trembled. Even with the support of the fog, the fog dragon claw was still pierced by the blood-red river. Although the river had lost more than half of its power and only retained one-tenth of its strength, it continued to surge toward the Heavenly Mist Demon.

Ye Chen’s eyes widened. Lin Yaqin’s strike was truly fearsome. If she had unleashed this blood-colored attack while pursuing him, he would not have survived until he reached the cliff.

Even with only one-tenth of its power remaining, this blood river was formidable.

However, the Heavenly Mist Demon did not show any signs of panic when it observed the approaching blood river. It looked at the oncoming attack and let out a fearsome roar. The swirling fog poured into its body

In the blink of an eye, the previously clear figure of the Heavenly Mist Demon began to thin rapidly. By the time the blood river surged toward it, the Heavenly Mist Demon had already transformed into a faint misty shadow, with only its outline barely discernible.

Boom!

The blood river passed through the shadow of the Heavenly Mist Demon without any resistance and crashed into the mountain wall behind it. The ground shook once more, and rocks scattered everywhere as the mountain fractured.

A strange laughter emanated from the Heavenly Mist Demon, as if it were mocking the foolishness of its adversary. Its form shifted and solidified again, returning to a physical shape.

Although it had been pierced by the blood river after becoming a shadow, it appeared completely uninjured.

Ye Chen’s eyes widened in astonishment as he gazed at the Heavenly Mist Demon.

Even though he had been mentally prepared and understood that this demonic beast’s power was exceptional, he had not expected it to be this effective.

Although that was merely one-tenth of Lin Yaqin’s attack, it should not be underestimated.

Ye Chen, who had endured Lin Yaqin’s sword beam, was acutely aware of the terrifying strength behind that technique. Moreover, Lin Yaqin’s power had increased by several times after consuming that strand of hair.

Even with Ye Chen’s extraordinary physique, he would not dare claim he could withstand an attack of more than ten times the force. Despite this, the Heavenly Mist Demon was unscathed after taking a direct hit.

This level of defense could only be described as abnormal!

It was overwhelmingly terrifying and enticing!

Ye Chen’s eyes gleamed with a fervent desire. He needed to acquire this power!

Lin Yaqin’s beautiful eyes darkened as she observed this. She snorted coldly and spun her sword. The blood surrounding her body expanded with the rotation of her weapon. In just a few breaths, it transformed into a turbulent river of blood that descended from the sky to the ground.

Lin Yaqin wielded the blood river with her sword. Even though her previous devastating attack had not succeeded, she showed no intention of retreating and instead took the initiative to attack again.

A mocking expression appeared in the Heavenly Mist Demon’s vertical eyes. It roared and charged forward, undeterred.

The river of blood churned, and the fog surged into the sky. On one side stood the red-haired Death Goddess, brandishing her longsword, while on the other loomed a fierce demonic beast with an intimidating visage.

The two engaged in a fierce battle, and this confrontation continued for a full hour!

Although Lin Yaqin’s sword techniques and strength surpassed the Heavenly Mist Demon’s strength, the demon’s mist-like divine power was too peculiar. Each time Lin Yaqin’s blood-colored sword beam struck, the Heavenly Mist Demon deftly evaded the blow.

Meanwhile, Lin Yaqin’s face grew increasingly pale. Her white gauze dress became stained with blood. The battle began to take its toll on her.

Lin Yaqin’s beautiful eyes flickered with cold determination. She awaited the perfect moment to vanquish her foe with a single strike.

At that moment, the Heavenly Mist Demon also began to pant heavily. It was no longer as agile as it had been at the start. Its body bore wounds, and its aura was noticeably diminished. Furthermore, the use of its mist-like divine power was starting to show signs of delay.

Despite the magical properties of the power it required significant energy. In such an intense battle, the Heavenly Mist Demon could no longer sustain its use for too long.

Moreover, while the fog could mitigate much of the damage to its body, it was not entirely immune. Over time, Lin Yaqin’s attacks began to affect its physical condition.

It glared intensely at Lin Yaqin, astonished that this seemingly insignificant human possessed such extraordinary strength.

Lin Yaqin did not intend to be outdone. She fixed her gaze on the Heavenly Mist Demon, and her aura surged. She wielded the blood river once more, aiming to strike the demonic beast once more.

For a brief moment, it appeared as though she was suppressing the Heavenly Mist Demon.

Ye Chen’s gaze shifted back and forth between the two combatants. He understood that both were in dire straits. However, which side was worse off?

It was Lin Yaqin.

Even though she was gaining the upper hand against the Heavenly Mist Demon, she had utilized a secret technique to amplify her strength.

Ye Chen could sense that Lin Yaqin’s aura was beginning to waver. Should her secret technique falter, the balance would shift in an instant.

Not to mention, this secret technique was clearly taking a heavy toll on Lin Yaqin’s body.

Although the current scenario was precisely what Ye Chen had hoped for, he recognized that he remained far from capable of turning the tides alone.

Both Lin Yaqin and the Heaven Fog Demon were formidable opponents he could not contend with.

Boom!

Lin Yaqin and the Heavenly Mist Demon were forced apart by their clash. The fog morphed into a massive serpent, which Lin Yaqin’s blood-red sword beam cleaved it into several segments.

The remaining sword beam surged toward the Heavenly Mist Demon. A flicker of panic crossed its dragon-like eyes.

Ye Chen’s heart raced.

Previously, the Heavenly Mist Demon had easily evaded the incoming sword light using its divine power, but this time, it was too sluggish.

It appeared that the Heavenly Mist Demon’s body had reached its limit after repeatedly using its divine power.

However, wisps of fog still emanated from the body of the Heavenly Mist Demon, and a hint of relief crossed its face. It appeared that its divine power would still be effective just before the sword beam struck it.

However, at that moment, Lin Yaqin suddenly raised her sword. Ignoring the fact that she had just executed a powerful attack and that her aura was somewhat unstable, she forcefully channeled her dantian’s energy,

A trickle of blood seeped from the corner of her mouth, but Lin Yaqin appeared unconcerned. A bloody flame ignited on her sword, radiating a terrifying aura powerful enough to incinerate the surrounding space into nothingness.

Clearly, Lin Yaqin was preparing to unleash her most formidable attack!

The gifted Saintess of the Shenxuan Sect instantly recognized the momentary delay in the Heavenly Mist Demon’s power activation and knew that this was her chance.

Lin Yaqin’s beautiful eyes gleamed coldly. She would not let such a prime opportunity slip away!

As for the Heavenly Mist Demon, it merely displayed a cold smile.

So what? It only needed to maintain the mist-like state.

”Now!” Lin Yaqin suddenly cried out. ”Do it now!”
