The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2659: Chapter 2633: Elder Cang’s Methods (Three More)

The endless sword light flickered as the Green Lotus Annihilation Sword radiated dazzling brilliance. The blood-colored sword light carried immense power, drawing in the toxic fog around it to form an overwhelmingly forceful attack. The oppressive aura rendered many Disaster Slaying Experts unable to catch their breaths.

”Is this the Great Void realm? If someone said it’s late-stage Disaster Slaying realm, I’d believe it!”

”That can’t be right. Could it be that our foundation during Great Void cultivation was too unsteady?”

Many people couldn’t make sense of it. Clearly, this was someone from the weak Great Void realm, yet the power unleashed far exceeded their own cultivation level, leaving everyone deeply suspicious.

”Dammit!”

The attack was neutralized, and Bai Yan was momentarily stunned by the earth-shattering sword qi. He couldn’t help but cough up a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. Just as he was about to make his next move, the radiant light dispersed, and Ye Chen’s figure was nowhere to be seen.

”That brat entered the ancient tomb!”

Someone shouted, and the group immediately looked over. They saw that Ye Chen had seized the moment of their distraction to rush into the ancient tomb just as it opened, leaving Bai Yan so furious that he pounded his chest and nearly coughed up another mouthful of blood.

Watching the dumbfounded crowd outside, Ye Chen chuckled before darting into the tomb at lightning speed. Although he could kill these people,

time was what he needed most right now.

After all, Ji Lin was still in danger.

”Chase after him! Whosoever kills that brat shall be honored as a guest elder of the Heavenly Sword Sect, with the title of esteemed elder!” Upon hearing these words, everyone’s eyes turned red with greed.

...

Entering the ancient tomb, Ye Chen wasted no time and hurried full speed toward the location indicated by the Ancient Medical God. The place seemed to be at the deepest part of the tomb, and from his master’s words, this item was extraordinary and had to be obtained!

The ancient tomb was shrouded in a blue haze, greatly reducing visibility. Within its depths, faintly chilling cries could be heard, unsettling those who listened. An oppressive atmosphere hung in the air, making Ye Chen’s expression darken. Fortunately, the environment allowed him to easily shake off the pursuing enemies.

His anticipation for the item grew stronger.

Soon, a magnificent ancient hall appeared in front of him. The golden hall stood out starkly amidst the somber tomb. On the towering platform within, a statue of an ancient Buddha loomed.

”It seems to be a Buddha figure.”

Upon closer inspection, the massive Buddha statue was dressed in an unadorned kasaya. Its gaze seemed to overlook all of creation, though its facial features were indistinct, exuding an air of immense dignity. As Ye Chen approached, he faintly heard countless voices chanting ancient scriptures around him.

”My master said the treasure is hidden behind this Buddha’s figure. It’s likely not something benevolent. Perhaps this Buddha suppresses some kind of perilous presence here.”

But even the shadowy figure of the Heavenly King had tried to hunt him; what did he have to fear now? With that thought, Ye Chen proceeded closer.

Inside the hall, he discovered thousands of meditation mats laid out before him. Sitting on these mats brought a sense of clarity that accelerated cultivation—an excellent find. Ye Chen swept them up, leaving not a single one behind.

Step by step, he approached the Buddha. The murmuring sound from its mouth grew louder, as if a great bell tolled right beside him, deafeningly resonant.

”This Buddha must have been an unparalleled force during its lifetime.”

With admiration gleaming in his eyes, Ye Chen unhesitatingly moved to the rear, where beneath the Buddha’s statue lay a suppressed Mystic Needle, which immediately caught Ye Chen’s gaze.

”This is the Poisonous Heavenly Needle, a supreme poison needle formed through years of erosion by the Chaos Heavenly Poison!” exclaimed the Ancient Medical God in his aged voice.

Ye Chen frowned, questioning, ”What is Chaos Heavenly Poison?”

”It is a poisonous fog so lethal that even Chaos Experts perish upon contact. This Poisonous Heavenly Needle also contains other toxins; even mid-stage Chaos Realm Experts would die upon touching it!”

”It’s a pity there’s only one.”

”Hiss!”

Ye Chen drew a sharp breath, followed by a surge of joy. Even Chaos Realm Experts could be slain with this—what a treasure! For a long time, this needle would surely become his best tool for survival.

”I should hurry and take it.”

”Stop. Use the Origin qi of Samsara Graveyard to enshroud it; only then can it be collected,” the Ancient Medical God warned sternly.

...

Just as Ye Chen secured the treasure and prepared to leave the hall, Bai Yan arrived, leading his group to block the exit.

”You little runt, I bet you’ve emptied the treasures in this grand hall, haven’t you?”

Bai Yan looked around the now-empty hall and clearly didn’t believe there was nothing left. His words instantly stoked the greed of the crowd, who stared at Ye Chen like ravenous wolves.

”And if I don’t tell you?”

Ye Chen replied indifferently.

Bai Yan sneered, ”No need for you to talk—once I kill you, I’ll get everything anyway. Kill him! We’ll split his treasures among us!”

Hearing this, some Disaster Slaying Experts couldn’t hold back anymore. They lunged forward, intent on being the first to strike Ye Chen down.

”Boy, just surrender quietly!”

Alas, their plans were futile.

”Six Paths Sword! Spirit Demon Annihilation Sky Sword!”

The Green Lotus Annihilation Sword in Ye Chen’s hand burst with light, instantly slaughtering five mid-air Disaster Slaying Experts. They had no chance to resist, vanishing into wisps of mist.

”This...”

The rest faltered at the sight, hesitant to move forward. It wasn’t cowardice—it was pragmatism. Ye Chen had no vendetta against them; their intent to kill stemmed merely from their greed for treasure. But treasures meant nothing unless one survived to claim them.

Ye Chen’s display of strength had far exceeded their expectations.

”Hmph!”

Bai Yan snorted coldly, clearly displeased with these weaklings. A mere Great Void cultivator—they thought they could overturn the heavens? And now, even this group of useless fools dared covet the treasures here?

Nonetheless, Bai Yan declared, ”That brat may be Great Void, but his foundation is set. Even though he can unleash such powerful attacks, he’s surely relying on some secret technique, and he must be at the end of his rope now!”

”Exactly!”

Following Bai Yan’s lead, the crowd’s fear transformed into clarity. They silently cursed themselves for being intimidated by someone from the trivial Great Void realm.

More people rushed forward again. However, under the suppression of the toxic fog, their cultivation levels were constrained, and they were simply no match for Ye Chen.

Quickly, even experts in the late-stage Disaster Slaying realm joined the fray. This placed immense pressure on Ye Chen, and the situation seemed increasingly unfavorable.

”Hold on, boy, I’ll help you!”

”Ancient Profound Gold Array! Activate!”

The Ancient Medical God’s voice erupted.

As the array was deployed, several Disaster Slaying Experts surrounding Ye Chen were instantly pierced in their vital points by golden needles, meeting their demise. As a divine doctor, his achievements in medicine were at their peak, and his array formations targeted critical points of the human body with devastating precision.

This mastery was the cornerstone of the Ancient Medical God’s survival.

Endless golden needles roared like Nine-clawed Golden Dragons!

The crowd trembled in awe!

Bai Yan’s face paled with shock, his voice stammering, ”Th-this... this is the Ancient Profound Gold Array—the Ancient Medical God’s exclusive spell!”
