The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 1302: Eliminate The Variable

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“My soul is part of the Samsara Graveyard, so I naturally will help you out,” Lan Xueyue nodded slightly and said, “However, even if I help you, will you really be able to reach the Dao Integration realm in a year?”

“This is unprecedented even in the Kunlun Mountains.”

Ye Chen had a one-year agreement with Venerable Immortal Ling Yun and the Blood Sword Sect!

Almost everyone thought that it was impossible. In the history of the Lingwu Continent, there had never been a case of someone advancing from the Supreme Emperor realm to the Dao Integration realm in a year. However, for some reason, Lan Xueyue felt like believing Ye Chen.

He could sense Ye Chen’s courage and determination, which far surpassed the inhabitants of Spirit City and the Kunlun Mountains. After all, these Semi Divine realm experts from Spirit City did not dare to enter Lingwu Continent alone. They did not have the courage or willpower.

However, Ye Chen did!

...

His Slaughter Dao was filled with tenacity, and he dared to do what he said. That a person like Ye Chen had ended up being chosen by the Samsara Graveyard was a blessing.

Over at the side, Nie Baijian, Chen Anping and Wang Gantian’s divine souls were weakening, and it seemed like they would not be able to hold on for too long, perhaps around a dozen or so days.

Lan Xueyue would be Ye Chen’s guardian once they left, but more would eventually appear as Ye Chen unlocked more and more tombstones in the Samsara Graveyard.

…

At this moment, the thirteen forces of Spirit City quickly gathered the youngest generation of disciples and changed the arena to one that was much bigger, hundreds of meters long and wide.

Three hundred and seventy-eight disciples soon stepped onto the arena stage one by one, ready to fight Ye Chen.

…

Somewhere far away, in another plane, a group of people had arrived at an ancient place that was filled with a thick smell of blood.

This was the ancient forbidden land of the Blood Sword Sect, which was where Kui Ying, the ancestor of the Blood Sword Sect, was cultivating in seclusion.

Leader Chen Long and Vice Leader Chen Fengxuan had brought the group back, but they had not conquered the Kunlun Mountains, and had even lost a fifth-level Primordial Chaos realm elder. It was truly a pity!

At the center of the ancient forbidden land, Kui Ying, who was sitting cross-legged on a floating divine stone, suddenly opened his eyes and released a terrifying aura that completely enveloped Chen Long and the others.

Kui Ying’s eyes were as red as blood, and his old, mottled face was filled with killing intent. He spoke slowly, but traces of anger were evident in his voice.

“What happened this time? If you can’t give me a reason, then you should prepare yourself to be tortured!”

“Ancestor!” Leader Chen Long and the others quickly knelt down. Even though he was an early-stage Dao Integration realm expert, he did not dare to offend a peak ninth-level Dao Integration realm expert like the ancestor. Despite them both being Dao Integration realm experts, the difference between them was like heaven and earth. Kui Ying could kill him as easily as Venerable Immortal Ling Yun killed the elder.

He hurriedly explained, “Ancestor, we had already defeated the Kunlun Mountains, and were on the verge of killing that little b*stard Ye Chen!”

“However, Venerable Immortal Ling Yun suddenly attacked. It seems that Venerable Immortal Ling Yun’s disciple is Ye Chen’s beloved, so it had to be that disciple who asked Venerable Immortal Ling Yun to intervene!”

“She used a spatial barrier to imprison us while she conversed with Ye Chen. By the time we were released from our restraints, Ye Chen was seriously injured, but Venerable Immortal Ling Yun instructed us not to invade the Kunlun Mountains for a year!”

Chen Long’s entire body was drenched in sweat. He knew that one wrong word could determine his fate. He quickly continued, “The second elder tried to fight Venerable Immortal Ling Yun, but was killed. We were no match for her, and even if we tried to fight her together, we would still die. As such, we came back to report this to you, Ancestor!”

“You were defeated and lost!”

“The reason is reasonable, but I still won’t accept it!”

Kui Ying raised his left hand slightly, and the nomological power of time flowed out of his palm. It condensed into a seal that slammed into Chen Long, after which he also threw some spatial blades toward Chen Long for good measure.

“No…”

“Ancestor…”

Chen Long instantly aged by 30,000 years, and his body was cut to ribbons by the spatial blades again and again, his blood splattering everywhere.

His physical body had reached the seventh level of the Overlord Body realm yet he was unable to resist Kui Ying’s casual attacks in the slightest.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several spatial blades flew into the group, and the peak Divine King realm experts were knocked to the ground, unconscious and spewing out blood.

The Primordial Chaos realm elders’ faces were even paler, and they had aged twenty thousand years in an instant. Chen Fengxuan also suffered the same punishment as Chen Long, and he did not dare to resist at all.

The entire group of experts suffered severe injuries in mere moments. Furthermore, their lifespans had all been reduced, which made it unlikely that they would be able to break through to the next realm in their lifetimes.

“This is your punishment for failing the mission this time!”

“However, since it was Ling Yun who interfered, I won’t kill you!”

“One year, huh…” Kui Ying’s eyes sparkled. Could he wait a year?

“Ye Chen went from an ordinary person to a Supreme Emperor realm cultivator in just a few years. Furthermore, his combat strength is comparable to a Semi Divine realm expert. He’s also protected by the Heavenly Dao and has an extremely strong bloodline. I don’t know where he came from, but he’s an enemy of the Blood Spirit Clan. If we give him another year, he might break through to the Primordial Chaos realm, or even the Dao Integration realm.”

Even if Ye Chen was an early-stage Dao Integration realm expert, Kui Ying was confident that he could kill him. However, if Ye Chen’s cultivation level rose beyond that, things would become uncertain.

“Pass down my order!”

“We won’t attack the Kunlun Mountains within a year. We’ll wait a year until we massacre them!”

Kui Ying ordered, “Send a message to the Southern Region, no, to all five regions. The Blood Sword Sect guarantees that whoever kills Ye Chen once he enters the Lingwu Continent, I will give that person a Dao Integration-grade artifact, and will personally help that person reach the Dao Integration realm!”

Every major realm breakthrough required a corresponding artifact.

To reach the Divine King realm, one needed to absorb the immortal energy within a Divine King-grade artifact.

To reach the Primordial Chaos realm, one needed both the immortal energy from the Primordial Chaos-grade artifact, but also to comprehend the spatial laws within the artifact. For the Dao Integration realm, it was the laws of time instead.

Therefore, this reward was enough to make some minor sects and lone experts risk their lives, and many Primordial Chaos realm experts would hunt Ye Chen down.

“Ling Yun!”

“We won’t attack Ye Chen, but if someone else kills him, it’s none of our business!”

Kui Ying waved his hand and flung Chen Long and the others away. He stared at the stars in the sky, several scars faintly visible on his chest. “I’ve divined the heavenly secrets three times in a row, yet everything about this brat seems mysterious. I have to kill him before he becomes a variable that can threaten us!”
