The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3887: Chapter 3687: Killing Intent in the Dark (Second Update)

At this moment, facing Ye Chen’s sword, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake was utterly astonished.

From its sensing, Ye Chen seemed merely a weak human at the Heavenly God Realm, even though a presence on him made it extremely uncomfortable, the division of realms was so low, it should be easily suppressed. Yet, Ye Chen unleashed a frightful power.

"Roar!"

At this moment, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake showed fear in its eyes, not daring to underestimate him at all, suddenly opened its bloodthirsty mouth, and let out an angry roar.

"Boom!"

Infinite vapor gathered in the mouth of the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake, while the black thunder on its body exploded. Thunder mixed with vapor gathered in his mouth, and the next moment, transformed into a gigantic thunder light ball, crashing towards Ye Chen.

This was the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake’s innate divine ability. Facing Ye Chen’s lethal attack, it used its strongest power.

But even with that, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake’s strength was insufficient. Its strongest strike was pierced through by Ye Chen’s sword, the next moment appearing directly in front of the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake.

"Spare my life, master!"

Seeing this lethal sword, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake felt the shadow of death looming over it, hurriedly pleading for mercy.

"Slash!"

Ye Chen’s figure suddenly stopped, but the Slaughter Sword directly sliced through the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake’s head, scales shattered, and blood spurted.

Feeling the throbbing pain in its head, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake let out a breath of relief, knowing Ye Chen had held back, otherwise, this sword would inevitably have annihilated it.

"This sword serves as a warning, should you ever dare pose any threat to humans again, I will not spare you!"

At this moment, Ye Chen coldly stared at the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake and spoke.

Hearing this, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake’s body shivered and quickly nodded: "Thank you, master, for sparing my life. I dare not again."

"Now tell me, where is the spirit herb you’ve been guarding?"

Seeing this, Ye Chen wasted no time and directly asked.

"Spirit herb?"

The Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake looked at Ye Chen and finally understood why Ye Chen had come here, showing a pained expression. That spirit herb, it had guarded for nearly a thousand years. It had finally matured, yet hadn’t had the chance to enjoy it.

Though unwilling to hand over the spirit herb to Ye Chen, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake also knew it was no match for Ye Chen, helplessly looking towards the depths of Black Water Ditch.

"Inside the Molten Lava Valley."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen raised an eyebrow. A spirit herb born in a lava-filled valley in such a place should be quite excellent.

"Lead the way then."

Ye Chen spoke indifferently.

Immediately, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake obediently led Ye Chen towards the depths of Black Water Ditch.

As they progressed, the icy, eerie water within Black Water Ditch grew warm, eventually transforming into boiling hot water.

Yet this temperature was insignificant to both Ye Chen and the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake, neither paid it any mind.

On the contrary, Ye Chen’s indifferent eyes slightly brightened at the gradually emerging valley before him.

The valley within the water ditch appeared entirely scarlet, like a heated piece of iron, emitting endless heat waves. Inside the valley, molten lava flowed, looking like a scene from purgatory.

Ye Chen’s eyes gleamed slightly as he sensed the fragrance of medicine emanating from within the valley, refreshing and seemingly containing a touch of rules’ charm. Clearly a remarkable spirit herb.

The next moment, Ye Chen directly flew swiftly into the valley. In the valley’s center, molten lava surrounded a rock upon which grew an ink-black spiritual herb.

This spiritual herb had a unique shape, surprisingly resembling thunder, and above this spirit herb, arcs of thunder shimmered, exuding the aura of Heavenly Punishment.

"Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass!"

Ye Chen’s eyes trembled. This Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass is a divine artifact helping martial artists overcome challenges. Especially when facing inner demons and other evil objects, it possesses perfect restraint.

And if Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass is used to refine elixir, it can imbue the pill with clarity of self, enhancing Dao Integration effects, making it a top-tier alchemy material.

"This trip truly wasn’t in vain."

Ye Chen’s lips curled into a smile, swiftly appearing beside the Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass the next moment.

Sensing Ye Chen’s threatening arrival, the Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass began swaying and vibrating. Thunder arcs above the herb suddenly pierced through the void, scorching everything, and whistled towards Ye Chen.

"You’d better submit to my hand peacefully."

Seeing this, Ye Chen chuckled indifferently, pointing directly. A massive spiritual energy swept upon, runes gleaming in the void. These transformed into an array formation, shattering the thunder along the way, then enveloped the Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass.

"Buzz!"

A mysterious fluctuation surged through heaven and earth, seemingly the Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass roaring in anger. But regardless of its struggles, nothing worked. The array formation’s power emerged, directly suppressing all its abilities, the thunder on the herb leaves converged into it.

Then, Ye Chen waved his hand, the now tranquil Thunder Bright Heart Mirror Grass flew directly into Ye Chen’s hand, stored safely by him.

Suddenly, two dominating auras arrived outside the valley, followed immediately by two figures rushing in.

Seeing them, Ye Chen raised an eyebrow, recognizing them as people from Tianyin Palace, knowing their intentions were hostile.

"Hmph, as expected, it’s here."

At this moment, Wang Pianye and Zhan Hao looked at Ye Chen with eyes full of coldness.

Simultaneously, Wang Pianye also sensed the gradually dissipating fragrance of herbs in the air, his gaze fixed on Ye Chen.

"What good thing have you obtained? Hand it over."

"The people of Tianyin Palace are so domineering. Why should I give you what I’ve obtained?"

Ye Chen looked at the opponent with a calm expression.

Upon hearing this, Wang Pianye sneered, "It seems you are unwilling. Then I must challenge you to see what skills you, the Chief Disciple of the Six Paths Sect, possess to make your name known in the Moon Soul Domain!"

"Skills? Not worth mentioning. But dealing with trash like you is a piece of cake."

Ye Chen didn’t back down, his aura exploded, an overwhelming and invincible pressure swept out, shaking the whole valley.

Following Ye Chen all along, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake watched the three of them with a look of shock in its eyes. Each of these three gave it a chill down its spine, clearly all extremely terrifying existences.

"What’s happening? Why has such a group suddenly appeared, when everything was fine before?"

The Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake couldn’t help but be puzzled. How could it know that this secret realm had been chosen as the assessment site for the Sect Ascension Ceremony of the First-class forces? This area had long been swept by a group of exceptionally powerful, extraordinarily gifted sect disciples.

At this moment, Ye Chen and Wang Pianye’s auras clashed, while Zhan Hao stood aside, looking at Ye Chen with flashing eyes.

The powers in the Moon Soul Domain had heard of Ye Chen, the Chief Disciple of the Six Paths Sect, after all, what Ye Chen had done was indeed astonishing.

But seeing him now, they realized Ye Chen was just a martial artist at the ninth level of the Heavenly God Realm, and compared to them, it was like heaven and earth, leaving them greatly disappointed.

"How could such a guy be a match for the Senior Brother? It’s going to be another one-sided and boring battle."

At this moment, Zhan Hao curled his lip, full of disdain for Ye Chen.

But Wang Pianye, on the other hand, was now looking at Ye Chen with grave eyes. Zhan Hao was the hidden power of Tianyin Palace, cultivating in secret for years, with little experience and few encounters with others.

Wang Pianye was different. As the Chief Disciple of Tianyin Palace, he had witnessed many non-human existences, with strength that was terrifyingly formidable. Although Ye Chen did not give him such an impression, he also sensed danger from him, clearly, Ye Chen was not as simple as he seemed on the surface.

"Interesting, it seems you do have some skills."

At this moment, Wang Pianye coldly smiled at Ye Chen, and suddenly pointed a finger.

"Buzz!"

Mysterious ripples emerged throughout the universe, converging into intangible laws, and suddenly, cold and sharp intentions burst forth.

Seeing this sharpness, Ye Chen’s expression turned solemn. He also sensed that Wang Pianye had actually comprehended the Tianyin Finger of Tianyin Palace, which showed that the opponent indeed had some skill.

"But this is not enough!"

Ye Chen drew the Slaughter Sword, and spiritual energy swept forth as the Slaughter Sword thrust toward the Tianyin Finger.

"Destruction Divine Dao, suppress for me!"

Ye Chen murmured in his heart, as a vast destructive power suppressed all heavens, instantly sweeping out.

The next moment, as the Slaughter Sword collided with the sharpness, a terrifying impact akin to stars bursting swept out, causing the entire valley to tremble and collapse with a roar.

"Bang bang bang!"

Huge boulders crashed down, yet Ye Chen and Wang Pianye remained indifferent, their eyes filled with violent battle intent.

"Very good, breaking my Tianyin Finger with a single sword, but that was only a tenth of my power!"

Wang Pianye showed a strange smile, and suddenly pointed another finger. This time, endless sharpness emerged, the cold light ten times more intense than before.

"Buzz!"

At Wang Pianye’s fingertip, the void collapsed, space obliterated, cold light vibrated throughout the heavens, and the next moment exploded toward Ye Chen.

The cold light was so terrifying, it seemed to pierce through all heavens, breaking through ancient spacetime, arriving directly before Ye Chen.

Seeing this, Ye Chen’s gaze grew feverish. Wang Pianye’s strength was impressive, igniting his burgeoning battle spirit.

"A worthy opponent indeed!"

Ye Chen’s lips curved into a smile, and he also pointed a finger.

"Let’s see who’s stronger!"

"Nirvana Divine Light!"

Ye Chen pointed, as the vast divine light of the Nirvana Starry Sky burst forth, colliding instantly with the sharp cold light.

In the next moment, divine light and cold light exploded simultaneously, a vast shockwave sweeping out. The giant rocks falling overhead instantly disintegrated upon contact, leaving no trace behind.

Meanwhile, the Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake watched Ye Chen and Wang Pianye’s battle, its serpent body trembling constantly. The clash of powers was too terrifying, sending shivers down its spine.

"These lunatics, they’re going to destroy my home."

The Thunder Ice Swallowing Water Snake thought inwardly, and in the next moment, turned to flee. The battle of Ye Chen and the others was too overwhelming. If it stayed here, it would be directly affected by the aftereffects of the battle, possibly perishing on the spot.
