Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2049: Chapter 2048: Harvesting the Medicine King!

After Lin Dong swallowed the Deadwood Dan, the Inner Qi in his body quickly recovered.

At this moment, he could once again strike out with eight swords!

Now, the sword he struck out again was aimed at the sixth head of the Nine-headed Sky Jiao.

This time, chopping off its head was targeting the head of the Nine-headed Sky Jiao that had defensive abilities.

”Puff～～”

The terrifying Sword of Sword Intent Fusion swiftly chopped off that head.

Then, Lin Dong continued to strike with his sword.

Soon, Lin Dong chopped off eight of the Nine-headed Sky Jiao’s heads.

Only that last head remained!

The abilities of the eight chopped off heads respectively corresponded to devouring, Sword Intent of Thunder, defense monument shield, Divine Dragon Body, venom attack, frost attack, self-healing ability, and invisibility ability.

As for that last head, up to now, Lin Dong didn’t know what its ability was.

However, it seemed not to be important anymore.

No matter what ability that last head had, as long as he chopped it off, the Nine-headed Sky Jiao would undoubtedly die completely.

Just as Lin Dong was about to make a move, a voice echoed in his mind.

”Kid, the ability of its last head is weird, it might be related to space...”

The voice came from the Sovereign Witch.

”What do you mean?” Lin Dong quickly communicated with her using his Mental Power.

”You’d better test the ability of its last head first, just in case,” replied the Sovereign Witch.

Lin Dong frowned slightly, but still heeded the Sovereign Witch’s advice and began to test the ability of its last head.

After all, the Sovereign Witch was an ancient figure, and she had once reached the level of a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist; even among Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, she was of the top tier.

Lin Dong naturally trusted her knowledge.

”Swish!!”

Lin Dong did not use his strongest strike but casually struck out with a second-layer ’Sword Intent of Thunder’.

The Sword Intent shot forward as the last head of the Nine-headed Sky Jiao opened its gigantic mouth.

”Roar～～～” Its mouth exhaled a breath that actually tore open a space rift.

The sword that Lin Dong struck out was swallowed into that rift and vanished.

”What... what kind of skill is this?” Lin Dong had never heard of such a thing.

The Sovereign Witch’s voice once again reached Lin Dong’s mind, ”Its last head’s ability is indeed what I sensed—it actually involves spatial techniques!”

”It can tear this space apart.”

Lin Dong knew the space of the Underwater Medicine Palace was different from the outside world and was isolated by the Bronze Door. It wasn’t real space at all.

It could be seen as a void space!

And the last head ability of this Nine-headed Sky Jiao was tearing apart this void space.

Lin Dong suddenly thought of a possibility.

”Could its head’s ability completely shatter or collapse this space?” If that were the case, no matter how strong Lin Dong’s power was, he wouldn’t be able to stop it.

If this space were to shatter entirely, then even if Lin Dong’s body was powerful, it would be destroyed.

Unless he could flee to another space, space collapse like this would tear apart even Heavenly Realm Martial Artists.

The Sovereign Witch said, ”The reason I asked you to test its abilities before making a decision is exactly out of concern for this.”

”If you chop off its last head, it’s possible it truly would cause this space to collapse. Then, although it would be killed by you, you would also be torn apart by the collapsing space!”

What the Sovereign Witch said was highly probable, so Lin Dong dared not act rashly at this moment.

Also, why hadn’t the Nine-headed Sky Jiao used that last head’s ability from the start? It showed that even it didn’t dare to use that ability lightly.

As the Sovereign Witch mentioned, using it might result in irreversible consequences.

Once space is torn apart, it can’t be restored!

Moreover, tearing space apart obviously wouldn’t kill Lin Dong; the only way for Lin Dong to be killed is for this entire space to collapse completely.

However, it would die as well!

So that’s why it only used its last head’s ability after losing eight heads.

If Lin Dong really wanted to kill it completely, then the Nine-headed Sky Jiao would clearly go down together with him.

Lin Dong didn’t wish for mutual destruction.

Thus, he swiftly formed an idea in his mind.

”It seems I need to secretly obtain the Medicine King first, and then immediately leave this space.”

”As for killing the Nine-headed Sky Jiao and using its blood to refine the body, it seems infeasible now.”

These thoughts flashed through Lin Dong’s mind.

Then he had a plan.

He prepared to use his Mental Power technique to quietly steal the Medicine King during the entanglement with the Nine-headed Sky Jiao.

As soon as he got the Medicine King, he would quickly open the Bronze Door and leave this space.

Thinking of this, Lin Dong deliberately started to chase and engage with the Nine-headed Sky Jiao.

”Take another hit from my sword!!” Lin Dong once again swung his sword towards the Nine-headed Sky Jiao.

The Nine-headed Sky Jiao constantly used its last head to tear one space rift after another, absorbing the Sword Qi that Lin Dong unleashed.

”This spatial technique is indeed formidable. It rips space apart and absorbs my Sword Qi energy into the rifts, leaving it unscathed.”

”However, if I use my strongest power, that space rift shouldn’t be able to block me. If not, the Nine-headed Sky Jiao would have used space rifts earlier to block my attacks.”

”Not wait until I chopped off eight of its heads before taking action!”

”Of course, it’s also possible that it can’t use space rifts too many times.”

Lin Dong constantly pondered in his mind while changing his position in the battle.

His position grew increasingly closer to the Medicine King.

When only a few hundred meters remained between him and the Medicine King, Lin Dong thought secretly: ”This is the moment, Spirit Hand!”

The Spirit Hand is a technique that can be executed by Mental Power monks of over twenty levels.

It allows the rapid, unnoticed retrieval of an item through Mental Power.

It’s like an invisible hand formed by Mental Power, quietly taking things away.

This Spirit Hand is invisible to martial artists and demon beasts.

Only those with greater Mental Power than Lin Dong could see this Spirit Hand.

At this moment, while Lin Dong battled the Nine-headed Sky Jiao, the Spirit Hand emerged before the Medicine King.

This Medicine King was a flower, but Lin Dong didn’t know its name.

It merely resembled a dragon shape somewhat.

It grew beside a blood-red pond, emitting Dragon Qi; just as Lin Dong’s Spirit Hand was about to pluck it, suddenly, this dragon-shaped flower let out a dragon roar.

”Not good, how can this Medicine King make a dragon roar?”
