The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3665: Chapter 3655: Origins (Nine Updates)

At this moment, a wild laughter erupted from within the smoke and dust, as if it were a bolt of thunder in a clear sky, exploding in the minds of everyone present!

Li Xiuyuan did not die!

Even in a severely injured state, after being struck by Huang Xingtian’s sword, Li Xiuyuan did not perish, there was only one possibility...

The fusion with the Asura Demon Gu was successful!

At this moment, a terrifying aura, beyond any measure, suddenly erupted, sweeping away all the dust!

Everyone looked at Li Xiuyuan at this moment, and their pupils involuntarily contracted!

Li Xiuyuan’s entire skin had turned blood-red, covered with innumerable black runes, his whole body had grown taller by a few measures, and his muscles seemed incredibly solid, filled with explosive power!

Moreover, the lost hand and the nearly shattered half of his body fully recovered in an instant!

Even more terrifying, Li Xiuyuan exuded an intensely blood-red murderous aura, with a nauseating scent of blood wafting throughout the Moon God Shrine, and at this moment, his presence made several demonic beasts from the Nine Saint Demon Sect palpitate with dread, as if their blood was about to flow backward!

Huang Xingtian, Xu Shenglong, and the others stared at Li Xiuyuan with disbelief!

This Asura Demon Gu, no matter how defiant of the heavens, must have a limit!

Reaching the Heavenly Repairing Realm, wanting to improve by a minor realm could take a thousand years even for such unparalleled geniuses!

As for ordinary martial artists, it’s a feat they couldn’t achieve in their entire lives!

Yet, this Asura Demon Gu nearly elevated Li Xiuyuan’s cultivation by two levels directly!

This wasn’t merely adding Wu Huo and Li Xiuyuan’s cultivation together; it was an exponential increase!

Moreover, being demonic beasts, Huang Xingtian and others were exceptionally sensitive to primordial chaos vitality, and they sensed that Li Xiuyuan’s enhancement wasn’t merely in cultivation but all-around improvement, including vitality and physical resilience!

In summary, it’s as the rumors claimed, the Asura Demon Gu is extremely terrifying!

No wonder that mysterious Poisonous Gu Insect Sect could withstand numerous powerful forces from the Outer Realm with just this Asura Demon Gu and hold out for three days!

Li Xiuyuan’s Gu Refining Technique should be incomplete, as his aura was unstable, seemingly still adjusting, not yet fully fused with the Gu, but even so, the effect was already so horrifying!

It’s imaginable how powerful the real Asura Demon Gu would be!

However, the stronger the Asura Demon Gu, the more despairing it was for Huang Xingtian and the others!

In the Heavenly Repairing Realm, each minor realm’s strength differs vastly; it’s extremely difficult to fight across realms, let alone that Li Xiuyuan is an exceptionally formidable genius!

Such an opponent needs just one move to kill them...

At this moment, Xu Shenglong’s eyes flashed with a determined look, and he roared: ”Self-detonate! While this guy is still stabilizing his aura, we must self-detonate, we can’t let him harm Lord Holy Son!”

Upon hearing this, Huang Xingtian and the others nodded without hesitation, and the aura of these four extreme talents from the Nine Saint Demon Sect became instantly restless!

They sacrificed for Ye Chen without hesitation!

The demonic beasts are filled with ferocity, and once they acknowledge you as their lord, they are incredibly loyal!

For them, such a death is an honor, a matter of pride!

But Li Xiuyuan, with a cold smile, said, ”Want to self-detonate? Heh, did I permit it?”

The next moment, the rolling blood-colored killing aura swept out like a world-shattering tempest capable of crushing planets, and Xu Shenglong and the others, who were about to self-detonate, became completely stiff, the violent demonic energy within their bloodline being forcibly suppressed, no longer under their control!

Is Li Xiuyuan’s power terrifying to such an extent?!

Without even moving a finger, he subdued these talented young demonic beasts from the Nine Saint Demon Sect?

Li Xiuyuan shot these few demonic beasts a glance, as if it was no effort, and leisurely stretched his body, though his movements were still somewhat awkward.

However, Li Xiuyuan didn’t mind. Awkward, so what? Didn’t he already have victory in his grasp?

Even if he could only move a few toes, it was enough to crush these ants.

Simultaneously, he was immensely proud as he prepared his ”brother”!

Li Xiuyuan was born into the Li family of the Moon Soul Domain.

The Moon Soul Domain has many families bearing the Li name, but only the strongest can be prefixed with Moon Soul Domain!

The Li family, though not as influential as the Seven Mysterious Daoist Sect, is still a force to be reckoned with!

However, Li Xiuyuan is not the son of the head of the Li family.

As a famous family in the Moon Soul Domain, the Li family naturally has a large and prosperous foundation, and Li Xiuyuan’s father was merely a branch barely related to the Direct Descendants, with practically no status in the Li family.

Yet, even so, Li Xiuyuan’s father was still considered a part of the Li family, of significant status, with numerous wives and concubines, while Li Xiuyuan’s mother was just a concubine...

In the Li family, although those servants addressed Li Xiuyuan as a young master, in reality, no one took him seriously...

Every year, several branch disciples from the Li family inexplicably disappeared. Others didn’t know, but Li Xiuyuan was well aware that these people were tortured to death...

By those Direct Descendants!

If Li Xiuyuan hadn’t demonstrated a sufficiently powerful martial arts talent, he might already be dead...

Possessing a notable martial arts talent saved Li Xiuyuan’s life, but it also brought jealousy from many Direct Descendants. Since they couldn’t kill Li Xiuyuan, they intensified their humiliation and ostracization!

It could be said that Li Xiuyuan’s youth was spent under the torment of the Direct Descendants of the Li family.

Thus, from a very young age, Li Xiuyuan was filled with a relentless drive to grow stronger beyond what ordinary people could imagine!

He had to become stronger, by any means necessary; only by becoming stronger could he survive!

If he couldn’t demonstrate sufficiently strong potential, his fate might be worse than death!

Until one day, he obtained an ancient incomplete book containing various Gu Cultivation techniques and a blood-red insect egg...

That day, he grasped the Gu Cultivation Method of the Asura Demon Gu, and Li Xiuyuan went mad...

Using his biological brother for Gu Refining, if discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable. While Direct Descendants had the privilege to torment branch disciples, it was absolutely forbidden for a branch to do so!

Being a branch member, if he violated the family law, even his not-yet-fully-developed martial arts talent couldn’t save him!

After all, in the eyes of those Direct Descendants, today you dare kill a branch member, who knows, tomorrow you might dare to target them?

Days later, Li Xiuyuan’s mother disappeared from the Li family, never to be seen again...

Long, long after, it seemed a Li family disciple discovered a corpse in a cave near the family—a female corpse with limbs severed and eyes gouged, brutally disemboweled before death...

No one knew who Wu Huo’s father was, but reportedly, when cultivating the Asura Demon Gu, the closer the bloodline of the vessel to the Poisonous Gu Planter, the better the effect.
