The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 1316: Into The Fray

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Ye Chen stood in the palace and observed the scene around him. He saw that most of the four to five hundred people were Semi Divine realm experts and some were Divine King realm experts. In addition, two Primordial Chaos realm experts were confronting each other in the distance, using their nomological powers to attack each other.

“Is this a battle between sects?”

“There are over twenty Divine King realm experts too!”

Even Ye Chen himself was a little shocked by what he saw. There were so many Semi Divine realm experts, which made them seem as common as ordinary people!

The Lingwu Continent was indeed a high-level martial plane. Some people were born as Supreme Emperor realm cultivators, and almost everyone was capable of reaching the Semi Divine realm.

At the same time, this made him feel rather inferior. With his current cultivation level, he was not even comparable to some ordinary cultivators in the Lingwu Continent.

He did not leave the palace. The palace was protected by a formation that Primordial Chaos realm experts could not break. However, the battle near the palace was getting more and more intense.

The two Primordial Chaos realm experts unleashed their full strength, and the shockwaves killed countless Semi Divine realm experts.

When the Divine King realm experts saw this, they scattered into the distance to fight their own battles in relative safety. The Primordial Chaos realm experts also moved away to fight elsewhere, leaving just the Semi Divine realm experts around the palace.

Ye Chen waited until the sky turned dark. The Divine King and Primordial Chaos realm experts had not returned, and the Semi Divine realm experts outside the palace were mostly dead or injured.

There were only a hundred or so late-stage Semi Divine realm experts still standing.

One blue-robed young man held a pseudo Divine King-grade artifact and brandished it. He laughed maniacally and said, “Hahaha, you’re all going to die. No one from Kunwu Sect can participate in the Hundred Sect Universe Competition this time!”

As his attack descended, his body erupted with power that was equivalent to a Divine King realm expert. His attack killed more than twenty Semi Divine realm experts!

“Brothers, kill them! Even if we cannot participate in the Hundred Sect Universe Competition this time, we won’t let them off easily!” A black-robed youth shouted with all his might.

The black-robed young man wielded his pseudo Divine King-grade artifact with all his might. It was a bronze cup that glowed with fantastical colors. As he attacked, a large amount of colorful liquid was sprayed out of the bronze cup. The moment the liquid came into contact with an enemy, the liquid would turn into poison and corrode the enemy’s body, reducing it to nothingness!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Clang!

The remaining twenty or so Semi Divine realm experts from both sides were still fighting.

In the palace, Ye Chen’s eyes sparkled. He whispered, “The Hundred Sect Universe Competition. From the looks of it, the situation is similar to what that old fellow from Spirit City said.”

“These two sects are probably among the top hundred sects in this area.”

Very soon, a tyrannical explosion erupted, and Ye Chen and the other cultivators raised their heads at the same time and stared at the corpse of a Divine King realm expert that was falling from the sky. The corpse then shattered and a rain of blood descended!

“A Divine King realm expert has fallen?”

“Yes!” Nie Baijian said slowly, “When a Divine King realm expert dies, a phenomenon will appear, and that expert’s Great Dao will disperse, making it easier for those who cultivate the same Dao to comprehend that Dao.”

“These two sects are not particularly strong though.”

“Master, I can probably kill these people, take their treasures, and leave!” Ye Chen’s lips curled into a smile.

Right now, what he lacked the most was cultivation resources and treasures!

If he wanted to advance quickly and increase his strength, he needed a large amount of resources, be it pills, spiritual herbs, or treasures that would boost his cultivation speed.

Clearly, a large number of Semi Divine realm experts had died here, so there were plenty of treasures to go around. As they were fighting, the two sects had not had the time to clean up the battlefield.

If he obtained these treasures, Ye Chen was confident that he could quickly advance to the ninth level of the Supreme Emperor realm, which would increase his chances of success when he participated in the Hundred Sect Universe Competition.

“Good! We’ll keep an eye on things for you,” Chen Anping said, “There’s no need to be afraid of the Divine King and Primordial Chaos realm experts returning either. At their level, unless the difference in power is too great, it’s extremely difficult for them to kill each other, and their battles usually last several days or longer.”

“Understood. I’ll wait a little longer!”

Soon, there were only ten disciples left from the two sects. However, these ten people actually stopped fighting!

The black-robed young man was covered in injuries. His golden body was riddled with injuries, but the blue-robed young man was not in a good state either.

The other eight cultivators were middle and late-stage Semi Divine realm experts.

The black-robed young man leaned against a large tree and looked at the corpses on the ground. He sneered and said, “Gu Wen, rather than continuing to fight, it’s better to end this now. Anyway, neither you nor I have many resources. It’s not worthwhile to kill each other over this.”

“Why don’t we both take back the spoils of war!”

“According to the rules, the spoils of war can be collected by those who survive the battle! These treasures are all ours!”

“With these treasures, you and I will be able to reach the ninth level of the Semi Divine realm, which will increase our odds of success at the Hundred Sect Universe Competition.”

“Fine!” The blue-robed young man sat on the grass that was dyed red with blood. He revealed a ferocious smile and said, “Anyway, all of the others are dead and the elders have achieved their goal. Let’s collect our spoils of war and head back!”

There were countless immortal artifacts, including a good number of pseudo Divine King-grade artifacts. There were also plenty of pills, spiritual herbs, and other such treasures.

As for why the sect masters and the elders started this battle?

Other than the grudges between the two sects, it was to separate the wheat from the chaff. Only disciples that were worth nurturing would survive the battle, and they in turn would be rewarded with the spoils of war.

“Everyone move out!”

“Only take the storage rings and immortal artifacts of our fellow sect members,” Gu Wen ordered.

“Let’s go!” The black-robed youth, Xue Wu, also smiled and said, “Collect the spoils of war quickly!”

“Yes, Senior Brother!”

However, just as the eight half-crippled Semi Divine realm disciples were about to take action, a beam of light flashed.

The light dissipated, revealing Ye Chen’s figure.

Ye Chen sized up the people in front of him and smiled. “Everyone, you’ve sacrificed the lives of your fellow disciples in exchange for your own cultivation resources. This isn’t good!”
