Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1469: Chapter 1466: Looked Down Upon

Lu Shuling’s eyes showed a trace of disappointment. She initially opened the formation of the Underground City for Xu Wendong because his brow resembled her tragically deceased junior brother, and his combat strength was strong.

Unexpectedly, he turned out to be an arrogant and ignorant person.

”Miss Lu, if I leave the Underground City now, can I come back later?” Xu Wendong was unaware of Lu Shuling’s thoughts and was contemplating leaving the Underground City to find herbs for refining elixirs.

Although he still had many high grade Immortal Devices and even Divine Artifacts in his storage space, any one of which could be exchanged for contribution points.

But...

He has not yet gained recognition from the Underground City and cannot exchange for contribution points at all.

This is like going to work at a company; if you don’t even have a bank account, how could they deposit money into your account?

Even in the worst-case scenario.

Even if he could barter, the risk would be too great.

It would definitely attract covetousness from some people and might even bring about a fatal disaster.

After all, the Immortal Device he used earlier already drew Wang Tong’s attention.

If not for this, he wouldn’t have ended up in such a predicament.

Lu Shuling gently shook her head, ”You haven’t obtained the residency rights of the Underground City yet, once you leave, it will be very difficult to return.”

She paused, unable to resist asking, ”Are you planning to leave?”

Xu Wendong said, ”I want to go out and find some herbs to refine elixirs.”

Lu Shuling looked suspicious, ”Do you really understand the Alchemy Skill?”

”I know a little about the Alchemy Technique,” Xu Wendong said modestly.

After pondering for a moment, Lu Shuling said, ”Let’s do this, I also need to go out to gather herbs tomorrow. You can come with me. This way, you can follow me back to the Underground City.”

Without residency rights from the Underground City, it’s impossible to find your way back.

Xu Wendong was overjoyed, ”Then I shall trouble Miss Lu.”

”Let’s eat!”

------

After lunch.

Xu Wendong returned to his own house next door. He sat cross-legged, his mind browsing through those powerful and rare Immortal Laws from the Yuantian Secret Realm.

There are many types of Immortal Laws.

Some can greatly enhance combat strength.

But many are beyond his realm to cultivate.

However.

Xu Wendong also found several auxiliary cultivation techniques, which can be lifesavers in critical times.

For example, the Invisibility Technique, Shrinking Ground, and Earth Escape Skill!

As the saying goes, when cultivation level is insufficient, skills can make up for it.

He immediately began to study these three spells.

Since they are auxiliary spells, learning them wasn’t very difficult.

He willed it,

And his body gradually disappeared from the bed, appearing empty.

”What a marvelous cultivation technique!” Xu Wendong was delighted. Although the Invisibility Technique had no offensive capability, it was excellent for escaping, even Level 9 Heavenly Immortals would find it difficult to detect his presence.

However.

His current cultivation level was too weak, and each time he used the Invisibility Technique, it could only last for a quarter of an hour.

After a quarter of an hour, the spell’s effect would vanish.

Moreover, it could not be used again immediately.

Each use had to be spaced by an hour.

”Although the Invisibility Technique can only last for a quarter of an hour, it’s more than enough for escaping.”

Having learned the three auxiliary spells, Xu Wendong felt a bit more secure, at least he wouldn’t feel so terrified and helpless when encountering danger.

”If my cultivation level could reach the True Immortal Realm, I could cultivate the immobilization technique. If I mastered that spell, it would be delightful indeed!” Xu Wendong felt a surge of strong anticipation.

Once the immobilization technique is used, enemies of the same realm would be immobilized instantly, but only for the duration of three breaths.

Yet for him, that would be enough to finish off the opponent in an instant.

The next day.

Lu Shuling returned home early and bought some steaming breakfast on the street.

After eating with Xu Wendong, she took him to the city gate.

At that moment.

Two men and three women had already gathered here; the men looked dignified and spirited, while the women were fair-skinned and extremely beautiful.

Their cultivation levels were all at the mid to late stages of the Heavenly Immortal realm, quite formidable.

”Senior Sister Lu, why did you bring an Earth Immortal cultivator?” A woman in a green gown, with makeup as delicate as powder and phoenix eyes, frowned, seemingly discontent with Lu Shuling for bringing Xu Wendong along on the mission.

The others also showed disapproval in their eyes as they looked at Xu Wendong.

They already looked down on cultivators ascended from the Lower Realm, not to mention that Xu Wendong’s cultivation was only at the Earth Immortal Peak, which they considered a burden!

Lu Shuling remained expressionless, ”Young Master Xu wants to go out to gather herbs, we’re on the same path, there’s nothing wrong with taking him along.”

”Let’s not talk about this, let’s leave the city!”

Though they felt a bit disgruntled, they said nothing more.

After all, Lu Shuling held a significant position and weight in their hearts.

A moment later.

The group of seven left the Underground City and appeared on the ruins of Yun Meng City.

The sun was newly risen,

Everything was awakening.

The warm sun on everyone’s body felt incredibly comfortable.

Though the Underground City had the sun, its warmth couldn’t compare to the real sun.

After arriving on the surface, Lu Shuling pinched the spell with one hand, and a small boat, about five meters long and over a meter wide, appeared under everyone’s feet.

This small boat was carved from jade and emitted a crystalline luster, evidently a flying magical treasure.

In the next moment,

The small boat, under Lu Shuling’s control, slowly flew into mid-air, then turned into a shadow and flew northward.

This magical treasure was fast, capable of traveling a thousand miles a day.

Two shichen later.

The magical treasure gently hovered above the vast summit of Mount Ling, resembling a giant dragon dormant for millennia, stretching over the vast land.

Its majestic posture and overwhelming momentum looked down from high above, like a magnificent landscape scroll, delivering unparalleled visual impact.

The mountain ranges undulated, peaks and ridges overlapped, with mist surrounding them, sometimes visible, sometimes obscured, adding more mystery and grandeur.

On the mountain top, towering pine and cypress trees stood, as if dragon scales shimmering, vibrant with life.

Below the valley, streams trickled, resembling dragon whistles reverberating, long and entangled.

This entire Mount Ling is not only a wondrous creation of heaven and earth but also a Holy Land filled with boundless spiritual energy and mysteries, evoking awe and wonder.

Within the embrace of this mountain, there once stood a magnificent and vast complex, built according to the terrain, perfectly integrated with the surrounding natural environment, like a bright pearl on a dragon’s body.

However, with time passing, this complex had now become ruins.

Broken walls and rubble were scattered all over, seemingly telling tales of past glory and vicissitudes.

The previously mentioned woman in the cyan gown, with infinite beauty, showed a trace of sadness in her eyes, ”Senior Sister Lu, why have we come here to gather herbs?”
