The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3085: Chapter 3859: Dragon Emperor’s True Body (Second Update)

”You go ahead.”

Finally, the Indestructible Dragon Emperor did not refuse any longer and agreed with Ye Chen’s plan.

Even if it was a trap, as long as they weren’t in the territory of the Heavenly Dao Palace, Xuanyuan Moxie wouldn’t find it easy to ensnare him and Ye Chen!

...

Soon, Ye Chen arrived once more at the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Palace and found himself at the foot of Imprisoned Dragon Peak.

The passage of time had changed things; the Heavenly Punishment Platform was reactivated, and the endless Heavenly Punishment Laws and demonic bloodline’s vicious energy continuously surged.

Even at the foot of the mountain, Ye Chen could feel the intense fluctuation of demonic qi.

”Is this the place where the Green Candle Dragon is suppressed?”

Ye Chen tightly gripped the Slaughter Sword and cautiously made his way up the mountain.

On his way here, he had been informed by the Indestructible Dragon Emperor about the various ancient secrets related to Imprisoned Dragon Peak, the Green Candle Dragon, and the Heavenly Punishment Platform.

Undoubtedly, the Green Candle Dragon was far more powerful than the Single-Horned Drought Demon, Black Evil Demon Scorpion, and Three-eyed Heavenly Wolf he had encountered before.

However, now that the Green Candle Dragon was suppressed underground, it couldn’t stir up trouble.

What Ye Chen needed to face was not the Ancient Great Calamity but the enemies of the Heavenly Dao Palace!

”The Heavenly Dao Palace must have arranged experts here to annihilate me.”

Ye Chen was fully alert, warily surveying his surroundings.

The demonic qi billowed all around, almost obscuring his vision, yet the atmosphere was oddly calm.

Under the Soul Suppressing Sensing, Ye Chen did not discover any signs of life, nor did he see any Heavenly Dao Palace elders.

However, Ye Chen did not lower his guard, advancing cautiously, sword in hand, towards the mountain’s peak.

The closer he got to the peak, the more intense the vicious energy grew—an aura of the Heavenly Punishment Laws that was alarming.

Along the way, Ye Chen surprisingly encountered no enemies or unforeseen events, and he smoothly reached the mountain top.

”Strange.”

Ye Chen was inwardly taken aback. If the Heavenly Dao Palace wanted him dead, they should have acted already, so why hadn’t they?

Ye Chen was baffled, not understanding the machinations behind the scenes of the Heavenly Dao Palace, but he remained on high alert, never letting down his guard.

Finally, Ye Chen passed through the layers of Demon Fog and stood before the Heavenly Punishment Platform on the mountain summit.

The massive platform was etched with countless Law Runes.

The intense aura of punishment, both divine and demonic, pressed heavily on one’s mind.

Black chains like ink, engraved with Heavenly Punishment Runes, crisscrossed the platform, severely binding a towering figure.

This figure, immensely robust and exuding an overwhelming dragon might, was none other than the True Body of the Indestructible Dragon Emperor!

”Senior Dragon Emperor, this is your True Body!”

Ye Chen’s face was full of delight as he finally laid eyes on the True Body of the Indestructible Dragon Emperor.

An endless dragon might expanded outward!

It even shook Ye Chen’s heart!

Sadly, the Indestructible Dragon Emperor was stained with fresh blood, and his aura was weak!

It seemed Xuanyuan Moxie had subjected the Indestructible Dragon Emperor to endless torment!

”This is too smooth. I have a feeling something’s off, but that Central place indeed resonates with my aura.”

The Indestructible Dragon Emperor’s face turned grim, immediately sensing something amiss.

Ye Chen’s journey up the mountain was too smooth—he hadn’t encountered a single enemy or obstruction.

The fact that the Heavenly Dao Palace’s people had yet to show themselves had to be some sort of deception!

”Even if it’s a trap, we have no choice now!”

”In my homeland Huaxia, there’s an ancient saying: ’Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover with earth!’”

Ye Chen, wielding the Slaughter Sword, boldly strode onto the Heavenly Punishment Platform to rescue the True Body of the Indestructible Dragon Emperor.

He was aware that the enemies of the Heavenly Dao Palace lurked in the shadows.

Nevertheless, he was unafraid. If he could even destroy the Polluted Earth Clone of Xuan Jiyue, the mere enemies of the Heavenly Dao Palace were not worth fearing!

Unless Xuanyuan Moxie himself appeared, Ye Chen would not be intimidated.

Crack!

At that moment, the True Body of the Indestructible Dragon Emperor suddenly opened its eyes, and from the depths of those eyes shot out a glare as bright as the stars.

”Hmm?”

Ye Chen paused in his steps, and upon seeing those eyes, he immediately sensed something was amiss.

Those eyes were so fierce, so violent—they didn’t resemble the Indestructible Dragon Emperor at all.

”This person is an imposter!”

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed. He hadn’t expected the person on the Heavenly Punishment Platform wasn’t Senior Dragon Emperor but an imposter!

Yet, why did the aura feel so genuine?

Clang!

The person shook, and the chains around him all clattered to the ground.

It turned out he was never truly bound by the chains; it was merely a facade!

Once he discarded the disguise, the man ferociously swung his fist to deliver a deadly blow. A black punishing rune erupted from his fist, emanating a vastly oppressive aura, as if it wanted to suppress the heavens and earth—exceptionally vicious.

”Heavenly God Realm Fifth Layer!”

Ye Chen was slightly moved, instantly discerning that the man’s level of cultivation was at the Heavenly God Realm Fifth Layer, one layer stronger than Xuan Jiyue’s Polluted Earth Clone.

Moreover, he had refined a Law Rune from the Heavenly Punishment Chains, his fists emitting a breath of heavenly punishment and judgment, extremely formidable.

Ye Chen was impacted by the aura of heavenly punishment, and looking at this man, he felt like a mere mortal gazing upon a Divine being; even his spirit was shaken, as if he feared punishment.

”A bit strange.”

Ye Chen was suddenly astonished, quickly calming his mind to resist the spiritual shock of the heavenly punishment aura, and he retreated swiftly, descending from the Heavenly Punishment Platform.

”Oh, you can actually withstand the impact of my Heavenly Punishment Principle.”

The man was slightly surprised, not expecting Ye Chen to be so formidable.

If it were an ordinary martial artist from the Chaos Realm, they’d have long since knelt in submission under his Heavenly Punishment Principle.

But Ye Chen’s spirit remained unshaken.

”Who are you?”

Ye Chen tightly gripped his sword hilt, staring at the man before him.

”The one who will take your life!”

The man sneered coldly, black runes flashing on his fist, waves of vicious aura emanating.

”He’s a disciple of our dragon race, Long Yan. I didn’t expect him to become a lackey for the Heavenly Dao Palace!”

The voice of the Indestructible Dragon Emperor echoed, tinged with anger.

”Long Yan...”

Ye Chen observed Long Yan’s appearance, nearly identical to the Indestructible Dragon Emperor’s, obviously altered to impersonate the Indestructible Dragon Emperor, drawing him into a trap instead.

But while facial features could be disguised, aura was not so easily falsified.

The moment Long Yan opened his eyes, Ye Chen recognized him as a fake.

However, what was strange was that Ye Chen still sensed the Indestructible Dragon Emperor’s aura lingering persistently on the Heavenly Punishment Platform.

”Something’s not right!”

”Senior Dragon Emperor, your True Body isn’t on the platform; it’s under it!”

Ye Chen instantly realized something was amiss.

To be precise, the True Body of the Indestructible Dragon Emperor wasn’t on the platform but hidden beneath it.

So, even though he couldn’t see the Indestructible Dragon Emperor’s True Body, Ye Chen could still feel his aura.

This Long Yan had concealed the Indestructible Dragon Emperor’s True Body under the platform, using its aura to deceive heaven and earth.

”Heavenly Punishment Dragon Fist!”

Long Yan’s eyes brimmed with killing intent; he stomped his foot and his body shot forward, his fist fiercely pounding toward Ye Chen.

On his fist, the black runes of the Heavenly Punishment Principle evolved, and the violent vicious aura rolled out fiercely. Though merely a single giant, as it swept through the air, it emitted sharp sword qi and saber-edge sounds, exuding a thick slaughtering aura.
