Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2306: Chapter 2307: Power of the Ancient Palm

Illusion? Ye Luo didn’t quite understand what this illusion meant. He had used the Clairvoyant Eye before, and it was clearly the Five Dao Ridges!

But since Dao’er said so, there must be some problem.

Moreover, the ones moving before were indeed all external forces; the indigenous tribes had all remained completely still.

Seeing the cultivators almost crazily rushing ahead and then having no reaction at all, Ye Luo knew these cultivators were likely in for a grim fate.

This situation lasted for several hours. Suddenly, the five mountain peaks in the distance began to tremble slightly, causing the ground to shake as well.

”Get ready. The entrance to the Five Dao Ridges is about to open!” Dao’er said seriously.

Ye Luo naturally followed this tribe’s movements. He just realized that the map Zi Wei gave him was incomplete. If he followed that map, he didn’t know if he could enter the Five Dao Ridges. Even if he could, it would be fraught with danger and unnecessarily longer.

This wasn’t Zi Wei intentionally deceiving him. She just followed the route at the time. Perhaps she was very fortunate, making her journey smooth to the Five Dao Ridges.

It also had to do with her strength back then. After all, being the number one in the Sixth Region wasn’t an unearned reputation. At least her strength was much greater than Ye Luo’s. Some deadly dangers might have seemed trivial to her at the time.

”Move!” Dao’er suddenly shouted.

Immediately, the entire tribe began moving towards the Five Dao Ridges, with Ye Luo and Nuonuo closely following Dao’er’s steps.

Dao’er was practically the leader of the entire tribe, and the tribe was willing to follow his commands.

Of course, Ye Luo knew the real treasures in the tribe were those few old relics.

Dao’er often went to consult with those old relics.

Though they were old and frail, hard of hearing, and with weak sight, their minds were still sharp.

Ye Luo had noticed them a few times and tried to converse with them briefly, but those old relics were unwilling to talk to him, pretending not to hear.

Ye Luo understood that these elders had a strong sense of vigilance towards him.

Or rather, they were highly vigilant against anyone outside their tribe.

It wasn’t just their tribe making the journey this time; other tribes and forces were also rushing forward.

Therefore, Ye Luo’s tribe fell behind again.

Moreover, Ye Luo noticed that even sects and forces from inland began to surpass the tribe, so it seemed they also knew some secrets of the Five Dao Ridges.

Still, Ye Luo wasn’t in a hurry, as the essence of the Spirit Pond was said to be plentiful, possibly existing in large quantities like the essence itself.

And Ye Luo only needed a small amount, especially not much for reviving scientists.

As for cultivation, Ye Luo already possessed a large amount of Spirit Pool essence, and at his current realm, reliance on external assistance was minimal. He needed personal insights into the Law.

Though their pace was slow, they soon reached the foot of the Five Dao Ridges.

Ye Luo sensed an overwhelmingly oppressive aura emanating from the Five Dao Ridges. Under these five peaks, cultivators felt as insignificant as ants.

This feeling was uncomfortable and could easily cause one to lose their Dao heart, but Ye Luo’s Dao heart was unshakably firm, and Nuonuo, having endured years of pain, wasn’t affected by the oppressive feeling.

Thus, the two of them remained unfazed. As for the other tribe members, because they hadn’t cultivated, they were barely affected by the aura or not at all.

Ye Luo asked Dao’er, whose response was, ”The mountain is huge,” with nothing else of impact.

But in the distance, there were indeed those whose Dao hearts were lost, resulting in madness or self-destruction, leading to total chaos.

And arriving at the mountain, it became evident there were quite a few cultivators here, vaguely seen in clusters.

After all, it wasn’t the first time the Five Dao Ridges have been opened. Many cultivators must have known about it and came to try their luck. The lure of the Five Dao Ridges was greater than any treasure.

Strictly speaking, it’s not solely part of the Sixth Region; appearances of the Five Dao Ridges were seen even in previous regions.

There were treasures inside that even enticed cultivators from those regions, let alone the Sixth Region.

”Listen carefully. From now on, you must step exactly where I step. Do not make a single misstep, understand?” Dao’er turned and said seriously.

He wasn’t just speaking to Ye Luo and Nuonuo but addressing the entire tribe.

Ye Luo could tell from his expression that the path ahead wasn’t peaceful.

In Dao’er’s hand was an ancient beast skin map, which he held tightly. After what seemed like ages, he took a step forward, leaving a deep footprint showing the force he exerted.

Ye Luo and Nuonuo followed his footsteps slowly, making their progress extremely slow.

Ye Luo and Nuonuo, following behind, idly glanced around.

Soon, they noticed something peculiar.

Not every faction walked this way.

For instance, those from overseas were still recklessly moving ahead.

And that’s when something strange occurred.

A pale ancient hand suddenly emerged from the ground, pulling a cultivator down like he was being drawn into a quagmire.

However, the ground was exceedingly solid, or Dao’er wouldn’t need to tread so cautiously.

Each deep imprint he left required his full strength.

Had it not been for the effects of the Spirit Pool essence, their speed would have been even slower.

Ye Luo also noticed that it wasn’t just their tribe moving this way; some indigenous tribes used the same method.

And those great sects used magic artifacts, hovering their feet above the ground, or protected themselves with magical treasures.

Clearly, these powerful factions were well aware of the peculiarities of this place, long prepared with strategies.

Only the Returner Alliance and newly formed or overseas forces, unfamiliar with the terrain, stumbled around like headless flies.
