The Divine Urban Physician

The entrance to the tomb of the Ancient Evil Demon lay ahead.

Ye Chen gazed into the distance and observed that the death energy within the tomb was unusually thick.

”Let us proceed this way,” Ye Chen pointed to the center of the path and declared.

At this point, he could only exert his utmost effort.

The door to the tomb stood open, further convincing Ye Chen that this was indeed the lair of the ancient evil demon.

As the two of them entered, they discovered numerous holes of varying sizes. Although they found nothing within, a lingering aura of treasures filled the air.

In the innermost part of the tomb, they stumbled upon a golden stone coffin. Inside it lay a body, surrounded by an overwhelming aura of demonic energy.

Ye Chen approached the stone coffin and examined the ancient evil demon’s corpse.

Initially, he had hoped to determine if it would meet the requirements of a Demon Emperor’s body. However, disappointment washed over him as he assessed it.

This corpse was not fit for a Demon Emperor. It could not even compare to the Black Demon.

With no other options, Ye Chen decided to break open the ancient evil demon’s body and use its blood to drip onto Mu Yan.

However, the poison did not subside.

At that moment, the Little Daoist affixed a rune inscribed with ancient symbols onto the body of the ancient evil demon.

Muttering incantations, an intense blaze erupted instantly!

The corpse of the ancient evil demon was reduced to ashes.

Furthermore, the faint aura surrounding the Little Daoist intensified rapidly. The poison within him vanished!

It became evident that the Little Daoist had not been truthful with Ye Chen.

Meanwhile, Mu Yan’s body exuded a potent poison, threatening to overwhelm her.

Ye Chen could sense the wrath of the Demon Emperor, yet the Demon Emperor seemed unable to act at this critical moment.

”Mu Yan!” Ye Chen exclaimed, swiftly embracing her.

Mu Yan’s breathing was erratic. Something dire was about to happen.

The blood of the ancient evil spirit had proven ineffective to cure Mu Yan’s poison, yet it had worked on the Little Daoist.

Damn it!

”Fellow Daoist, I apologize. I was untruthful. In truth, the blood of the ancient demon does not affect that girl. Instead, it relates to my own Dao attainment.”

”I cannot enter this realm alone.”

”I will bear the responsibility for her demise.”

”This matter is still connected to you.”

”If you wish to scold me, I will accept it.”

”In pursuit of my Dao, I erred, and all my previous endeavors may now be in vain.”

Nevertheless, Ye Chen paid no heed to the Little Daoist.

This was because a voice resonated from the Samsara Graveyard...

It was the voice of the Ancient Divine Doctor!

”Child, do you still remember the conditions you promised me?”

”Now may be the time to fulfill that contract.”

”Your condition lies within the Land of Myriad Demons?” Ye Chen inquired, taken aback.

Divine Doctor Cang Gu stroked his beard, smiling. ”I am not only skilled in medicine, but I also excel in divination. I can sense something vaguely.”

”Everyone in the Land of Myriad Demons believes that the most valuable item is an ancient evil artifact. They remain unaware that an even more significant treasure exists here.”

”That is the chaos star tree.”

”This is something all medical practitioners dream of; it is a true divine treasure.”

”This represents the true significance of this place and the greatest opportunity!”

”The chaos star tree will bear fruit. I desire both the fruit and the tree!”

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes. ”This object is immensely powerful. Are you certain I can acquire it?” he queried.

”I will certainly assist you,” Divine Doctor Cang Gu replied with a smile.

Suddenly, Ye Chen recalled something. ”I can aid you, but I hope you will help me eliminate Mu Yan’s poison.”

”Otherwise, I shall not seek the chaos star tree!”

”You are threatening me!” Cang Gu’s smile faltered, and his expression darkened. This old man was notorious for refusing assistance. It was absolutely impossible for him to help anyone below the Disaster Slaying realm!

”Then I shall not proceed!” Ye Chen declared firmly. ”Prepare for the next opening of the Land of Myriad De,pms.”

”You!” Divine Doctor Cang Gu glared at him. Moments later, a golden needle enveloped in seven-colored Qi appeared before Ye Chen. ”Child, you are the first individual in ten thousand years to negotiate with me. Excellent! Very good! This needle can dispel poison!”

”Once you have removed the poison, seek the chaos star tree!”

Ye Chen felt a surge of joy. No longer hesitating, he disregarded the Little Daoist outside and activated the golden needle.

As the golden needle manifested, the young Daoist priest wore an expression of utter disbelief. ”It cannot be... That is impossible!”

The golden needle descended, and the seven-colored light enveloped Mu Yan, and instantly, the poison within her receded.

Moreover, Mu Yan, who had been on the brink of unconsciousness, opened her eyes.

The Little Daoist was left in shock! He collapsed to the ground!

His eyes, once calm, now brimmed with fear. ”This is the golden needle of the Ancient Divine Doctor. How could you possess his golden needle and his techniques? Who are you?”

From the onset, he had been pessimistic about Ye Chen’s prospects, but now, Ye Chen’s medical prowess had utterly astonished him.

In the Divine Kingdom, countless treasures and forms of power paled in comparison to a needle from the Ancient Divine Doctor.

Though Divine Doctor Cang Gu might not be the strongest, his medical skills were undoubtedly unmatched throughout the Divine Kingdom!

There existed a saying in the Divine Kingdom...

”One would prefer to offend the Heavenly Dao Palace than to cross Ancient God Cang Gu!”

One needle could alter a life!

Even the most formidable experts could not evade death, and the Ancient Divine Doctor had the power to change that.

As Mu Yan regained consciousness, Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and the golden needle vanished from his grasp.

The young Daoist priest emerged from his stupor. ”If you possessed such medical skills, why did you not save her sooner?”

”You nearly caused my Dao heart to collapse.”

Ye Chen disregarded him entirely, focusing instead on a particular direction.

At this moment, he needed to locate the Chaos star tree within the Land of Myriad Demons.

He had a strong sense that this opportunity did not belong to the Ancient Divine Doctor, but to him.

Ye Chen contemplated briefly, then directed his gaze at the Little Daoist. ”You have lingered here for quite some time. I assume you know the location of the Chaos Star Tree.”

”How did you know?” The Little Daoist’s eyes were wide with fear.

”It is none of your concern. If you wish to atone for your mistakes, guide me there,” Ye Chen commanded solemnly.

”Follow me.” The young Daoist priest wasted no time.

At that moment...

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The tomb trembled, and a colossal demonic beast emerged from the stone wall behind Ye Chen.

The demonic beast possessed the strength of a Great Void realm expert, its fierce gaze fixed upon Ye Chen and the others.

”I anticipated this. Upon disturbing the ancient evil demon’s body, the fearsome beast guarding it would awaken,” the Little Daoist muttered.

Ye Chen’s carefully laid plans had been entirely disrupted.

”Let us flee!”

Ye Chen utilized the Thousand Artifacts Blast to delay the 10,000-year Bloodfiend momentarily before sprinting away at full speed.

He had no desire to confront the ancient demonic beast.

They could not afford to expend their strength at this juncture. It was best to avoid exhausting themselves in this treacherous place.

Ye Chen grasped Mu Yan’s hand and dashed away desperately.

He paid no heed to the Little Daoist. Though he seemed enigmatic and lacked visible cultivation, it was surely not a problem for him to fend for himself.

The three of them fled, the 10,000-year Demonic Blood Beast hot on their heels.

A rustling noise emanated from the front, and demon corpses began to materialize one after another.

The number of demon corpses continued to swell, ultimately transforming into a crimson mist.

Ye Chen and Mu Yan burst forth from the tomb, feeling as though they had narrowly escaped a catastrophe.
