Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 496: Chapter 496: The Powerful Grand Elder_1

Even the assassins from the Blood Wolf Organization trembled at that murderous move, let alone the people of the Miao Tribe. Many had already turned pale with fright at the sight of such a bloody combat scene, some ordinary members of the Miao Tribe even threw up.

However, the most ferocious battle was still the one between Xue Hai and the Second Elder along with a few others, as well as the battle between Xiao Ling, who drew upon nature’s spiritual energy, and Xue You. Now that was a real war.

At this moment, the Second Elder and several Grand Elders were fighting against Xue Hai. The struggle between them was intense, releasing terrifying strength that prevented anyone from daring to come within dozens of meters. Otherwise, they would not die but suffer severe injuries.

The Second Elder’s strength had been slightly weaker than Xue Hai’s to begin with, and he had exhausted a great deal of his power by opening his Spiritual Energy channels before. Now, it was only with the help of the other Elders that they managed to barely withstand Xue Hai’s attacks.

”You old fools, go to hell,”

Xue Hai roared, his hands moving quickly, and with a whisper, a burst of blood-colored light erupted from his body.

”Blood Sea Swallowing the Heavens!”

An endless flood of blood-colored light transformed into a boundless sea of blood, engulfing the Second Elder and his companions, as if to completely swallow them up.

The Second Elder and the other Elders were desperately resisting, but faced with the Blood Sea’s Blood Sea Swallowing the Heavens, they still found it difficult to hold back. The power of the blood sea was growing, consuming their strength and eventually engulfing them completely.

On the other side, Miao Xiaoling, though without any True Qi, could draw nature’s spiritual energy and transform it into strength to battle Xue You, a master of the Saint Realm, and the fight was even.

”Little girl, it seems that I have indeed misjudged you; you actually have such an ability,” Xue You said coldly, his hands forming a mysterious hand seal.

”Netherworld’s Radiance, perish!”

Xue You swung his hands fiercely, and a burst of gloomy blue light exploded, heading straight for Xiao Ling.

Miao Xiaoling’s face was solemn as she moved her hands quickly. The spiritual energy of the world directly formed a shield in front of her, blocking the Netherworld’s Radiance, yet a shiver ran through her body and a trace of fresh blood spilled from the corner of her mouth.

”It seems you’re not truly invincible,” Xue You said, a cruel smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

”Blood Energy Boiling!” With a sweep of his hands, Xue You’s strength surged, instantly elevating him to another realm. His terrifying presence enveloped everything around, making everyone’s breathing become labored; the blood energy was simply too fearsome.

Boom!

In a flash, Xue You made his move, gathering all his strength and blasting a palm strike towards Xiao Ling.

Miao Xiaoling’s complexion changed, and she twisted her hands into complex hand signs while countless streams of nature’s spiritual energy crazily converged in front of her.

Boom—

A blood-colored palm print erupted, clashing harshly with the spiritual energy of the world. Miao Xiaoling’s body trembled, fresh blood spilled from her mouth, and she staggered backward.

”Xiao Ling!”

At that moment, Ye Luo called out. After slaying an assassin at the Innate Peak Stage with a single sword strike, he activated Dragon Soaring Nine Heavens and appeared beside Xiao Ling, steadying her in his grasp.

”Are you alright, Xiao Ling?” Ye Luo asked, looking at Miao Xiaoling.

”I’m fine; it’s just a pity that I’ve just started working with opening my Spiritual Energy channels, so my Spiritual Power is still too scarce to mobilize more of nature’s spiritual energy,” Miao Xiaoling said helplessly, referring to the power that allowed her to manipulate this spiritual energy of the world.

”Little girl, I find you quite interesting. Let me see just who you really are.”

Xue You coldly uttered a phrase and his body moved toward Xiao Ling.

”Don’t even think about it!”

At this moment, Miao Chang’an charged forward once again, attempting to resist Xue You, but he was no match for Xue You at all, and with a single palm strike, he was sent staggering backwards, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

”Daddy!” Miao Xiaoling cried out upon seeing Miao Chang’an injured.

”Violate my Miao Tribe, die!”

Suddenly, a thunderous shout of rage erupted, and an old crone appeared out of nowhere, her body flashed and she appeared in front of Xue You, brandishing a cane in her hand.

Now this old crone swung the cane in her hand at Xue You, who changed color and retreated explosively, but the cane seemed to stick to him, making it impossible for him to escape.

Bang!

The cane smashed directly into Xue You’s chest, sending him flying and crashing into a boulder, which shattered into pieces. He lay on the ground, coughing up blood.

With a mere single strike, a powerful Saint Realm expert was rendered severely injured—this scene left Ye Luo greatly shocked.

Prior to this, he had not understood much about the Miao Tribe and thought that they didn’t have many strong warriors. Only now did he realize how profoundly the Miao Tribe had concealed their true power.

There were so many Saint Realm experts, and now this formidable old crone emerged; with such strength, they could dominate a region, yet they chose to live in seclusion within Miaojiang.

”Cough cough... Who are you?” Xue You clutched his chest and coughed, looking at the old crone with a serious expression as he spoke.

”Grand Elder, you have finally finished your seclusion,” Miao Chang’an exclaimed with a joyful expression upon seeing the old crone.

All the members of the Miao Tribe present displayed overwhelming excitement at the old crone’s arrival.

This old crone was indeed the Miao Tribe’s Grand Elder. No wonder Ye Luo had only seen the Second Elder before and had never heard of this Grand Elder—the Elder had been in seclusion all this time.

The Grand Elder didn’t speak; her eyes swept toward the other side where the endless sea of blood formed by Xue Hai was about to completely engulf the Second Elder and others, who grew pale with fright and their breaths were extremely feeble.

The Grand Elder’s body flashed with the speed of lightning, appearing in front of the sea of blood. Raising her cane once more, she swung it as Xue Hai, having witnessed the old crone’s might previously, didn’t dare to be negligent. He stopped his attack on the Second Elder and his group and quickly focused all his strength to defend against the Grand Elder’s strike.

Just like Xue You, Xue Hai, one of the five Blood Kings, spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying, having no significant ability to resist.

Although both Blood Kings were Saint Realm experts, they were nothing compared to the Grand Elder, and the gap between them seemed very wide.

”Let’s go!”

Xue You suddenly spoke and leaped up, dashing toward the distance, with Xue Hai immediately rising to escape.

”Think you can leave!”

The Grand Elder snorted coldly and dashed out, the cane in her hand swinging directly.

At this moment, Xue You’s eyes narrowed and he flashed beside Xue Hai. Before the latter could react, Xue You struck him in the chest with his palm, sending him flying just in time to be hit by the cane.

Immediately, a mouthful of crimson blood sprayed out as his body fell to the ground, convulsing, his eyes wide open as he watched Xue You disappear before him. A look of unwillingness flashed in his eyes, and then he was dead.
