Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 1803: Chapter 1805: Peril Encountered

Feng Ling naturally saw the confusion in Ye Luo’s eyes, so she continued, ”Originally, I didn’t know what this was either, but I once saw an ancient record in the Sacred Temple. This Sky-severing Lock, which seems like a section of a soft whip on the surface, can actually extend for thousands of miles. It is an extremely strange Divine Weapon passed down from ancient times. However, the master of this weapon later disappeared without a trace, and even the Sky-severing Lock vanished!”

Ye Luo understood Feng Ling’s meaning. Feng Ling was saying that these floating stones were the Sky-severing Lock. They appeared here because the master of the weapon used it to cross the opposing cliff, but for some unknown reason, though they crossed, they never returned.

If this is true, then the opposite side must be filled with countless dangers. However, what is this Sky-severing Lock really, and how did it transform into these talisman stones?

Suddenly, it seemed Ye Luo thought of something, so he casually threw out a longsword.

Of course, this couldn’t possibly be the Lingyun Sword; it was just an ordinary longsword that Ye Luo kept in his Qiankun Ring.

The longsword rushed out swiftly and soon reached the edge of the broken cliff.

In an instant, as if influenced by some mysterious force, peculiar particles rapidly began to gather around the longsword!

Although these particles were still few, Ye Luo could clearly see them, and they continued to gather.

In a moment, Ye Luo realized the secret. It seemed the Sky-severing Lock was once used by its master as a rope to cross the cliff, but due to certain reasons, the master perished. The Sky-severing Lock was not retrieved, and so it gathered into floating stones between the cliffs. However, these talisman stones are not actual stones but constructs of spiritual power particles, so naturally, when a puppet lands on them, it triggers an attack!

Understanding this cleared up his earlier doubts, though new questions emerged: what lies beneath this cliff, and what is on the other side?

It was clear that very few had ventured to the far side, and even those who did mostly never returned.

At this moment, Ye Luo felt a stir in his heart. Since few have tread this place, there was certainty that treasures might exist there!

But feeling intrigued and actually crossing over are two different matters. If previous travelers were unable to return, the danger was evident. Ye Luo couldn’t claim to be stronger than those before him, so who could guarantee that if he and the others crossed over, they’d be able to return?

Moreover, how to get across?

”Why don’t we go down along this cliff and cross from the bottom?”

Evidently, it wasn’t just Ye Luo who was intrigued; Feng Ling and Ao Long also wanted to explore, so at this moment, Ao Long suggested an idea.

Ye Luo silently walked to the cliff’s edge and looked down.

The thick fog obscured his sight, preventing him from seeing what lay below. One thing was certain: it was extremely dangerous because even in the short time Ye Luo stood there, he could feel an overwhelmingly terrifying pressure emanating upwards.

”No, we don’t know what’s beneath the cliff, and it’s evident that this entire area conceals things entirely unknown to us!”

Ye Luo turned back and spoke to Feng Ling and Ao Long.

However, at that moment, an unforeseen change suddenly occurred, without any warning. Whether Ye Luo, Feng Ling, or Ao Long, none had the slightest bit of alertness.

The change came so abruptly that the three of them didn’t sense anything until they realized Ye Luo had been pulled mid-air above the cliff!

Crossing mid-air was nothing for Ye Luo.

But voluntarily using spiritual power to cross mid-air is one thing; being controlled by a mysterious force and pulled into the air, as he was now, is something else entirely!

Ao Long and Feng Ling immediately rushed over, evidently intending to rescue Ye Luo, but Ye Luo immediately stopped them, ”Don’t come over!”

Ao Long and Feng Ling halted.

Ye Luo’s voice continued, ”You must not come over. We still don’t understand what’s going on, and now all my spiritual power has been sealed. If you come over, I’m afraid you won’t be able to help me and might get trapped yourselves!”

Indeed, at this moment, all of Ye Luo’s spiritual power had been sealed, yet no one knew what had happened.

”Catch this!”

Feng Ling suddenly threw a special rope. What purpose Feng Ling intended for this rope was unknown, but now it came in handy!

The rope quickly flew towards Ye Luo, and understanding Feng Ling’s intention, he grabbed it without hesitation.

Originally, pulling Ye Luo back with the rope seemed to be a simple task.

However, when Feng Ling pulled, she found she couldn’t move him.

Ao Long also came over.

Yet even with both of them exerting all their strength, they couldn’t move him!

What was going on?

Given that the combined strength of Ao Long and Feng Ling was substantial, why couldn’t they move him?

Moreover, not only could they not move him, at that moment, Ye Luo was still slowly retreating backward as if some mysterious force was pulling him!

Ye Luo could see that Ao Long and Feng Ling were very worried about him, but he knew in his heart that whatever they did now would be of no use. The situation was unclear, and if they acted rashly, they wouldn’t be able to help him and might also end up in danger.

”Elder, Feng Ling, don’t worry. Don’t forget, Elder’s current body is my transcendent incarnation, so no matter what happens, at least one thing is certain: I absolutely won’t die! Rest assured, this is perfect timing. I was hesitating whether to go over and see, so since this force is pulling me over, I must see what it is that’s holding me!”

Ye Luo’s decision was extremely risky, but hearing him say that somewhat alleviated Ao Long and Feng Ling’s concerns.

True, Ao Long was using Ye Luo’s transcendent incarnation, so even if Ye Luo’s actual body perished, he could revive through the transcendent form!

However, in such a case, Ye Luo would probably lose everything.

After all, everything unique about Ye Luo now was tied to his physical body!

His transcendent incarnation, after all, had nothing.

But what could Ye Luo do? He was already in danger, so should he selfishly drag Ao Long and Feng Ling to their doom as well?

Indeed, while it’s true Ye Luo can be reborn through the transcendent incarnation, what if Ao Long and Feng Ling came over as well?
