Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 839: Chapter 706: The Adventure Begins

When Ye Lingyue suddenly realized this point, her heart suddenly twitched.

Feng Xun, why on his body...the totem, what is it?

Suddenly, a kind of fear flashed through Ye Lingyue’s mind, as if something was about to break out of the soil.

Feng Xun’s hands were cold, like a block of ice.

Was his Cold Syndrome acting up?

Or was it that the Sifang City Lord’s act of summoning the Demon Awakening Gate accidentally triggered Feng Xun’s illness?

She had an impulse to leave this place with Feng Xun immediately.

She opened her mouth, but before she could speak, her body was suddenly pulled into Feng Xun’s arms.

His breath was right next to her ear, Feng Xun’s lips pressed against the root of her ear, he opened his mouth, and although there was no sound, Ye Lingyue roughly understood Feng Xun’s meaning from the shape of his mouth.

”I’m fine, don’t worry.”

Despite saying this, Ye Lingyue could feel Feng Xun’s body tensely strung, like a bow drawn back ready to shoot, his chest heaving, his heart pounding strongly as if it was about to leap out.

From his body, deep from his bones, a bone-chilling coldness was emitted.

Without any hesitation, Ye Lingyue held Feng Xun tightly, her arms wrapped around him, clinging like conjoined twins, not wanting any space between them.

The Cauldron Breath within Ye Lingyue quietly seeped into Feng Xun’s body.

Her proactive move startled Feng Xun, giving him a pleasantly surprised feeling.

His little woman, always sensitive, must have noticed something; he shouldn’t let her worry.

Feng Xun’s eyes darkened, and his gaze shifted to the foot of the Sifang City Lord, not far away.

The ancient Array had been almost completely set up, not just on the ground, but even in the air, there were flickering, elusive runes floating.

The Sifang City Lord’s throat moved, and from his throat came a long and forceful sound.

”Demon Awakening Gate, in my name, return to this world.”

The ground trembled more violently, and a trench-like crack appeared. As the crack widened, an ancient archgate rose from the ground inch by inch with a thunderous rumbling sound.

It was a stately yet terrifying gate.

It was more majestic than any city gate Ye Lingyue had seen in any great nation.

It was wide enough to accommodate dozens of carriages passing through at the same time, its top unseen, its imposing manner made anyone standing before it feel incredibly insignificant.

When the gate appeared, it was surrounded by a large amount of black clouds, like a cloud layer that never dispersed, floating beside the gate.

But all these were not comparable to the shock brought by the Demon Awakening Gate itself, that tightly closed, yet unopened gate was splattered with dried dark-red, resembling dried human blood.

On closer inspection, the gate was not made of brick, iron, or any material known to Ye Lingyue.

This gate of the Demon Awakening Gate was actually cast from countless beast heads, skulls, and even Wandering Souls.

Some of these beast heads were as huge as a mountain, while others were as tiny as ants, and some were human skulls, each pale and bleak, unknown how many years they had been dead.

Their hollow severe caves emitted a dim green light, like evil ghosts that will never close their eyes, waiting for new prey to step into the Demon Awakening Gate.

For those who are faint-hearted, just looking at the Demon Awakening Gate a few times would be enough to scare their souls away.

Even someone of Yue Mei’s cultivation felt a chill run through her when she saw the terrifying Demon Awakening Gate, and she couldn’t help but step back.

”Is this the Demon Awakening Gate?” Yue Mei’s eyes sparkled, and her voice trembled slightly.

”Once the Demon Awakening Gate is opened, the old man will temporarily enter the Protective Array state for six hours. Remember this, Miss Yue.”

Having said that, the Sifang City Lord had already sat down cross-legged, his body enveloped in runes and shadows of light and dark, as if his body had merged with the entire array.

With a burst of light, the Demon Awakening Gate emitted a long sound like a bell tolling.

The gate, made of beast heads and skulls, gradually opened.

From this moment, everything happening around him was inaudible and invisible to the Sifang City Lord, but correspondingly, others could not harm him either; otherwise, the entire Medicine Array Formation would collapse, and the Sifang City Lord would turn a deaf ear to everything.

As for the stone staircase of the well entrance, it had also closed.

Outsiders couldn’t come in or go out.

Seeing that the Sifang City Lord had entered meditation, Yue Mei was overjoyed.

She looked back several times and gave a signal, and soon Chen Mu and An Yang emerged from a hidden spot.

”This is the Demon Awakening Gate?”

Chen Mu, upon seeing the towering Demon Awakening Gate in front of him, was as shocked as Yue Mei.

An Yang next to him was already trembling at the knees.

”Brother, that gate looks so scary.”

After opening, the Demon Awakening Gate occasionally emitted black clouds of Demon Evil Energy mixed with sinister winds.

The sinister wind blew straight at them, cold and chilling, and without activating their Primordial Power for protection, anyone touched by it would have a layer of frost-like chill form on their skin.

This sensation was very similar to the Evil Fog in the Black Valley.

However, compared to Luo Song and Hong Mingyue at that time, Yue Mei, Chen Mu, and others present had higher cultivation and states of mind.

”Are you scared?”

Yue Mei raised her eyebrows, and her arrogant eyes conveyed an expression of contempt.

An Yang shrank his neck, but Chen Mu glared at him sternly.

”This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, without Junior Sister Yue, we wouldn’t have a chance to come here at all. We have six hours, light the Soul Stabilizing Incense, and let’s enter the Demon Awakening Gate immediately.”

Chen Mu’s words led Yue Mei to give him a look of approval.

The three came prepared.

They took out a dark red incense, about the thickness of a little finger; once lit, this Soul Stabilizing Incense could dispel some of the Yin Sha wind and also play a role in stabilizing the soul.

One stick of Soul Stabilizing Incense lasted about four hours, and Chen Mu and the others had to return to the exit of the Demon Awakening Gate within the duration of three sticks of incense, to prevent the Sifang City Lord from discovering their unauthorized entry.

”I’ll lead, An Yang in the middle, would Junior Sister Yue mind covering the rear?” Chen Mu, quite experienced, assigned the positions for the three of them.

Yue Mei had no objections, so the trio entered the Demon Awakening Gate in this order, and like the Demon Awakening Gate, their figures disappeared.

Once the three had left, Ye Lingyue and Feng Xun, among others, came out.

”We should go in as well, I’ve brought the Time Hourglass, we need to keep watch on the time, and if anything feels off, we must turn back immediately. Remember, as per our earlier agreement, both of you must stick close to me,” said Ye Lingyue, flipping her hand to reveal a small, delicate Time Hourglass.
