Reborn Divine Doctor: The Abandoned Girl's Legend

Chapter 998: Chapter 58: Accidental Trespass into the Forbidden Land

Wuya Peak was attacked, and the assassin even confronted Sect Leader Wuya face-to-face. The most shocking part was that the assassin managed to escape.

The news spread as if it had grown wings, quickly circulating within the other main peaks of Wind, Flower, Snow, and Moon, within just fifteen minutes after the incident occurred.

”The Sect Leader has ordered that someone has intruded into the Inner Sect’s important ground. That person is injured and cannot escape far. Inner Sect disciples, some are responsible for searching this peak, while the remaining disciples are to search outside. It is imperative that the whereabouts of the assassin are discovered by tonight.”

With the order from the Four Elders, disciples from the four peaks poured out en masse.

The previously pitch-black four main peaks suddenly lit up brightly.

Countless disciples wielding Spiritual Artifacts emerged like a swarm of locusts, densely populating various parts of the four main peaks.

They conducted a thorough search across the surrounding areas.

”Tsk, this time I really made a big blunder.”

Near a steep cliff not far from Wuya Peak, a few ancient pines grew.

After witnessing the massive deployment of Inner Sect disciples everywhere, Ye Lingyue couldn’t help but grimace and spat towards the dark cliff.

As Sect Leader Wuya had guessed, although Ye Lingyue escaped with the help of the Cauldron Spirit by merging with the cauldron, she narrowly escaped from under the Taixu Palm.

Yet, the powerful Primordial Spirit Telekinesis carried by the Taixu Palm made Ye Lingyue’s body feel as if it had been crushed by a rock, causing unbearable pain.

If Ye Lingyue hadn’t used Cauldron Breath to timely repair some damaged meridians, she might have fallen into the depths and been smashed to bits after flying only a few steps.

But after treating herself, she found that there was no chance to escape the Inner Sect.

The flying route she came by earlier was probably already sealed.

However, hiding here wasn’t a solution either.

Ye Lingyue already noticed faint flickers of firelight not far on the mountain ridge.

These were the torches of teams of Inner Sect disciples searching the nearby mountain cliffs overnight. She even heard the barking of some Spiritual Beasts.

In at most two hours, before dawn, they would find this place.

”Little Di Shen, it’s all your fault. If I find you, I’ll definitely spank you hard.”

Ye Lingyue was in utter distress.

But it seemed that Little Di Shen was no longer at Wuya Peak. Where exactly did that little guy go?

Concerned about Little Di Shen’s situation and pondering how to escape the Inner Sect, Ye Lingyue was unaware that on the opposite side of the ancient pine she was hiding in, a pair of golden eyes were watching her.

It was only when she instinctively felt something was amiss that Ye Lingyue whipped her head around sharply.

Seeing this, Ye Lingyue’s whole body stiffened.

On the opposite cliff, an eagle was perched.

The eagle was entirely black except for a white spot on its head.

It was massive, weighing at least over two hundred pounds. Each feather was streamlined, seemingly imbued with endless power, and its golden claws, the same color as its pupils, gleamed fiercely even in the night, having claimed the lives of countless Fierce Beasts.

How could such a fierce eagle be in this place?

Trembling with fear, Ye Lingyue pondered whether this eagle was raised by someone or just a Wild Beast from the area.

Upon sensing the presence of a stranger, the eagle suddenly shuddered its wings, which spread over two meters wide. As its wings flapped, rocks tumbled down the cliff, two powerful gales rising up.

The eagle let out a long cry and dove towards Ye Lingyue.

When you’re down on your luck, even drinking water gets between your teeth, Ye Lingyue cursed and dared not be careless.

Gripping the Female Sword Nine Dragon Chant in reverse in her hand, she slashed towards the massive eagle’s underbelly.

Unexpectedly, the eagle was quite clever, recognizing that the treasure sword in Ye Lingyue’s hand was extraordinary. It slammed its body fiercely towards the pine branch under Ye Lingyue’s feet.

It was unknown what the eagle grew up eating to be so incredibly strong.

With a single flap, the thick pine branch, as thick as a waist, emitted a very dull sound.

In the next moment, Ye Lingyue only felt a weight beneath her feet, and unfortunately, the pine tree under her feet cracked.

As she lost her footing, Ye Lingyue thrust the Nine Dragon Chant into the air, intending to fly into the sky.

But at that moment, she heard voices shouting.

”There’s movement over there, go check it out.”

Oh no, the commotion between her and the eagle had attracted the people from the Inner Sect.

At this moment, the effect of the Invisibility Elixir on Ye Lingyue was about to wear off. In her urgency, she gritted her teeth and swiftly controlled the Nine Dragon Chant, swooping towards the ravine below where the eagle perched.

The sword light flashed, and Ye Lingyue entered the ravine.

The voices of the eagle and Inner Sect disciples seemed to vanish suddenly.

Not only the voices, even the bright moonlight disappeared.

Then Ye Lingyue realized she had entered a deep and dark ravine where even moonlight couldn’t penetrate.

The ravine was narrow, only enough for one and a half people to pass through.

All around was blurred darkness, so dark that she couldn’t see her fingers. Relying on her hearing, Ye Lingyue could hear the sounds of wind and water drops echoing through the mountain.

Thinking about the eagle outside the ravine, Ye Lingyue worried that there might be other Fierce Beasts inside. She didn’t dare light the fire stick on her body recklessly, opting instead to let her eyes adjust to the surroundings as quickly as possible.

The Nine Dragon Chant flew slowly within the ravine, and it was unclear how long it flew. When Ye Lingyue felt that the searchers outside must have left, she prepared to control the Nine Dragon Chant to leave the ravine.

Suddenly, the Nine Dragon Chant trembled violently, and Ye Lingyue didn’t know what happened, but she suddenly felt her weight increase.

The Nine Dragon Chant became incomparably heavy as if all at once, plunging straight down the ravine. By the time Ye Lingyue realized it, she was already plummeting with the Nine Dragon Chant into the depths of the ravine.

Outside the ravine, a dozen Inner Sect disciples had already found the cliff where Ye Lingyue had been hiding earlier.

”It’s the Three Realms Eagle from the forbidden land.”

When those Inner Sect disciples saw the man-sized eagle, they all displayed a look of reverence.

Nobody dared approach, and the Inner Sect disciples stood back on their own accord.

”Could the assassin have intruded into Dugu Heaven?”

”Best if they did intrude, that’s a place even the Great Elder doesn’t dare enter.”

This narrow ravine, as if cleaving the sky, was called Dugu Heaven in the Lonely Moon Sea.

It’s said that anyone who enters Dugu Heaven can’t make their way out.

Dugu Heaven is home to a reclusive master from the Lonely Moon Sea, whose eccentric personality prevents even the Sect Leader from bothering them lightly.

If that assassin did indeed intrude into Dugu Heaven, they will surely meet their death.

”Should we report back to our master about this first?”

”What are you doing over there?”

Just as the dozen or so Inner Sect disciples were discussing the matter, they suddenly heard someone asking from behind them.
