Peerless Divine Doctor

Chapter 2424: Chapter 2425: Enduring Torment

The elder appeared composed and indifferent.

”For us old, immortal ones, what troubles matter anymore! Walking down this path is inevitable sooner or later!”

Ye Luo and the Third Princess remained silent, perhaps for these elders, falling is considered a kind of relief!

This is undoubtedly a somewhat ironic situation.

”Ye Luo, Third Princess, I understand your thoughts, but the Holy City is just the Holy City; even if you attempt to change anything, it will be futile, unless the Law Enforcers are wiped out. Otherwise, the Holy City will always remain the Holy City!” the elder suddenly said.

Ye Luo was momentarily stunned and fell into silence immediately.

The elder’s words were clear; if Ye Luo and the others wanted to save the entire Holy City, it would be a foolish endeavor!

After all, how many people in the Holy City wish to escape this environment, and the adaptability of living beings is strong. Even if they were taken to the Immortal Realm, they might not necessarily be happy!

Of course, if the Law Enforcers abandon the Holy City, that would be another matter.

Perhaps, this is the real reason why those predecessors did not succeed!

Despite how strong those predecessors were, compared to the population of the Holy City, they were insignificant.

If the entire Holy City united as one, there might be a possibility of breaking free.

After all, the people in the Holy City are talents from various regions; even if they cannot break free, at least the Law Enforcers wouldn’t be so arrogant.

It seems this senior sees more clearly than others, and because of this insight, he preserved his safety.

Of course, there’s no distinction of right and wrong here; it is a matter of personal belief.

Just like the elder guarding the Transmission Array, his beliefs are completely different from those of others, yet in the end, they chose the same path.

Naturally, this was the most helpless choice, or one could call it relief.

”Therefore, when you do anything, you should base it on your own standpoint and avoid meaningless sacrifices!” the elder continued.

After a long time, Ye Luo slowly nodded, ”I will remember the guidance of the elder!”

Uncle Hong then smiled and nodded, ”Remember, this is not selfishness; it is fairness to those around you!”

In the following period, Ye Luo’s surroundings became quieter, but he understood that this was merely the calm before the storm.

The Law Enforcers were undoubtedly gathering Strength, and when the time came, it could be a deadlock!

Thus, Ye Luo surely needs to prepare early.

In reality, he now felt quite repulsed by the Holy City, unwilling to linger here even for a single breath.

As a result, his Divine Sense directly arrived at the base.

The gazebo where he previously drank coffee with the female scientist was already abandoned, covered in dust. He suddenly missed the elegant days when he used to drink coffee here with her.

However, although the base had improved somewhat since before, it still appeared dilapidated. Yet any progress was ultimately good.

”So, are you feeling any better now? But my mood is still terrible!”

The female scientist’s voice came from within the base.

This indeed made Ye Luo a bit awkward, as he had cursed at the base before leaving.

Nevertheless, the female scientist’s figure appeared, and this time it was her real self, not some projection.

”Is there something you need from me?” she asked coldly.

”How is the base doing now?”

”It’s none of your business!” she replied coldly.

”I want to discuss the next steps with you!” Ye Luo said helplessly.

”I don’t have time!”

...

The scene turned a bit awkward as it was evident she still held a grudge against Ye Luo.

Ye Luo blinked, ”If you won’t talk to me, then I’ll be forced to do something unfriendly to you!”

Unfriendly actions? The female scientist immediately recalled the last incident.

”Fine, I was planning to do something unfriendly to you as well!”

With that, Ye Luo sensed something was amiss; suddenly, a massive suction force appeared around him, instantly transmitting him away.

Though this was his Divine Sense materialized into a form, it was more dangerous than his physical body!

After all, Divine Sense is essentially the Strength of the Divine Soul, or soul, and the destruction of the soul is far more terrifying than the damage to the physical body.

With physical body damage, there’s still an opportunity to reshape it, but if the soul is annihilated, then everything is ruined.

”You crazy woman, what exactly are you trying to do to me!” Ye Luo cursed loudly.

”Very well, I hope you still have the Strength to curse later!”

Hearing her cold words, Ye Luo felt increasingly uneasy.

Soon, he found himself in a closed space that was very peculiar—grayish and yet gave Ye Luo a familiar feeling.

This place! Seems like the heart of technology!

Moreover, it resembles an ancient trial ground! Ye Luo somewhat understood Zhongzhou’s trial ground too.

Here, one could indeed enhance one’s Strength, but it’s far from a safe place—even the trial Disciples of the Zhongzhou Empire had a casualty rate of over half back in the day!

Furthermore, this trial ground had been abandoned for who knows how many years; one couldn’t predict what might happen!

Considering the energy of the trial ground has accumulated over time, now this trial ground...

Damn, that mad woman!

When he plans to leave, he must show her some consequences!

Just as he was gritting his teeth, a rumbling sound suddenly came from the air!

It’s Thunder! If it were before, he wouldn’t fear it, because with the Thunder Principle Seed there, no matter how fierce the Thunder Principle, it couldn’t harm him.

But now, things were different—his Thunder Principle Seed was severely damaged, and more critically, its compatibility with his body had greatly decreased; hence, if attacked by the Thunder Principle, it would be dangerous.

”Damn it, definitely that mad woman set this up, knowing my Thunder Principle Seed was damaged!” Ye Luo cursed through clenched teeth.

Of course, he also understood that the woman certainly wouldn’t dare to kill him; after all, if she killed him, the base would also be doomed, but it was inevitable that she wanted to torment him.

Given this, he had no choice but to endure.

Rumble!

With a loud bang, a massive bolt of lightning streaked across the night sky, and a Thunderclap descended.

It cannot be described how gigantic this Thunder really was, as the entire space was filled with it.

”Damn it!” Ye Luo cursed.

Upon contact, his physical body immediately broke and tore open. This Thunder Principle was clearly synthesized by the Zhongzhou Empire, with attack Strength sharper and more cunning than natural Thunder Principles!

For instance, even the sharpest natural Thunder Principle ultimately doesn’t target a Cultivator’s weak spot to attack.

But here, the Thunder Principle acted as if it had consciousness, specifically targeting the weak spots of Cultivators.
