Medical Sage

”You dare to speak to me like that?”

Chen Fei’s words were laden with meaning, even carrying a hint of mockery. The Flame Demon General’s face instantly stiffened, turning an unsightly, livid color.

Clearly, he had never imagined an insignificant ant like his opponent would actually have the audacity to speak to him in such a manner, and with such a tone.

But the thought that the terrifying individual from back then might not be dead is what truly horrifies me now. It’s the most infuriating and frightening possibility! After all, I know perfectly well that if it weren’t for the sneak attack, I never would have been able to fell such a terrifying foe! And now, if that person really isn’t dead, or even worse, has been resurrected…

Even he couldn’t stop his eyes from trembling fiercely. He immediately shook his head in denial. ”No! Impossible! I killed that man with my own hands. How could he possibly be resurrected? The Human Race doesn’t possess such abilities!”

As this thought solidified, the unease and outrage in his heart began to recede. He turned his ferocious, burning gaze back to Chen Fei and snarled, his teeth clenched, ”It seems even in death, he couldn’t rest in peace. Kid, did you inherit some kind of one-time power he left behind?”

Apparently, this was the answer he had settled on. That man is definitely dead! He couldn’t have been resurrected like I was. So, this human brat must have obtained some power that he left behind, a power that could erupt just once! Was he so resentful about being killed by a sneak attack? What a detestable fellow! Dead, yet still causing trouble...

”Did you hear that? He said you can’t rest in peace even in death.” Chen Fei couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing the Flame Demon General’s tone. Who would have thought this once imperious and unrivaled figure is now so terrified of you? Did you really leave that deep an impression on him back then? Turns out Zhen Jingkong really was something else. No wonder he was once so close to becoming a Great Formation Master... It’s simply undeniable.

”I told you, if I wasn’t still healing my injuries, hadn’t been ambushed, and had my Lizhen Furnace and Octagonal Mystic Tower on me, how could a piece of trash like that have possibly killed me, Zhen Jingkong? Make your move. This guy is an eyesore. Hmph!” Zhen Jingkong’s cold snort, chilling to the bone, echoed from within Chen Fei’s sea of consciousness.

If it weren’t for Chen Fei, I probably would have acted myself by now! That thing is just asking to die!

An angry roar suddenly sounded by Chen Fei’s ear. ”Are you deaf? Don’t think some cheap, one-time power gives you the right to be proud. You should know, if I could personally kill him back then, a substitute like you is just as worthless now! Not even worth mentioning.”

Seeing that Chen Fei dared to ignore him, the Flame Demon General finally lost his temper, his gaze filled with menace.

The only reason I lost my composure earlier was because I was wary of that man from the past, not this ant in front of me who overestimates his own abilities! How strong can borrowed power possibly be? It’s not even worthy of my serious attention. The ridiculous thing is, an ant like this actually dares to ignore me... He’s simply courting death!

”Since it’s a power he left behind, let this general see how much of it an ant like you can wield! Don’t tell me you can’t even take a single strike from me.”

The Flame Demon General’s voice suddenly darkened. He stomped forward, and it was as if the terrifying magma had returned to this subterranean world. An intense heat burst forth instantly. Horrifying rivers of lava shattered the icy restraints, surging skyward, boiling and setting the heavens ablaze!

”Flame Dragon Devour!”

Following the bloodcurdling shout, the soaring magma swiftly transformed into an enormous, terrifying Demon Dragon. The creature’s body was constructed entirely of magma, and the intense heat radiating from it was so powerful that it rapidly melted the frost covering the earth and sky. This sight alone was a testament to its fearsome power.

The faces of the Melsdom members, who had fled to the farthest point, were filled with a chilling terror. A hint of worry, however, quickly surfaced.

They knew all too well that if Mr. Chen weren’t standing before them, such a terrifying attack would incinerate them all, leaving nothing but ash. But can Mr. Chen truly withstand such a dreadful assault?

”And this thing dares to call itself a dragon? I’m afraid even a true Flood Dragon could defeat it ten thousand times over.” A disdainful smirk touched Chen Fei’s lips as he faced the approaching magma behemoth. He then extended a hand and slowly pointed.

BOOM!

ROAR!

As he pointed, a colossal ice-blue figure surged out from within the subterranean world. It raised its head and let out a soul-shattering screech. A chilling aura formed long, icy streamers that glowed with a frigid light. The presence emanating from the massive ice-blue creature was so immense that it was no less powerful than the terrifying, imperious Magma Demon Dragon!

The ice-blue figure was a gigantic serpent, over twenty zhang long. Its body, manifested from Spiritual Energy, was covered in large, ice-blue scales as clear as crystal.

This, however, was not its most eye-catching feature. On the serpent’s head and belly, fleshy, lump-like protrusions had ’grown’, resembling a horn and claws...

Have you actually seen a true Flood Dragon? How can you manifest something like this with Spiritual Energy? Even Zhen Jingkong’s expression changed at this sight. He was astonished that Chen Fei’s ’Spiritual Energy Manifestation’ ability could be so formidable. Moreover, it’s possible he’s even seen a legendary Flood Dragon! Otherwise, he could never have conjured such a lifelike form!

The reason the ice-blue giant serpent lacks a horn on its head and claws on its belly is that Chen Fei’s true strength is too low—he’s only at the Qi Refining Fifth Layer—so he can’t perfectly mimic the Flood Dragon’s complete appearance. Even so, this is still incredibly impressive! At least, even I, Zhen Jingkong, am a little startled now...

Where on earth did this kid see a real Flood Dragon? Surely not in this barren little world? Even up above, in our Qiannan Ancient Kingdom, Flood Dragons are exceedingly rare and terrifying creatures! A common adult of that species has combat prowess comparable to a powerful existence at the Primordial Core True Lord Realm! Not to mention, such a formidable species possesses an Innate racial advantage that all other clans envy. The Body of a Flood Dragon is far stronger than that of a cultivator at the same level! If this barren little world truly contained a Flood Dragon, that terrifying creature would have dominated or destroyed everything by now. But as things stand... the people on the surface are living so peacefully, so it should be impossible! But if that’s the case, then where did the kid see one...?
