Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort

Chapter 740: Chapter 175: Breaking Into the Domain, Under Attack! (2 Updates)

Interested in corpses?

Mu Qingge’s mouth twitched, feeling her face looked somewhat unpleasant at the moment.

Could this guy not make it sound so imaginative?

”I need the corpses for alchemy.” Mu Qingge explained through gritted teeth.

She thought that by explaining this, Ji Yaohua would stop his wild imagination.

But, who knew as soon as she said this, Ji Yaohua’s expression became even worse than hers, and he couldn’t help but gag on the side.

His intense reaction made Mu Qingge frown.

She was about to step forward to show some concern.

Ji Yaohua noticed her movement and quickly raised his hand, stopping her from approaching. ”You... you better not come over.”

”What’s gotten into you now?” Mu Qingge asked with displeased eyebrows furrowed.

But Ji Yaohua’s expression changed dramatically when he asked, ”Tell me, are the elixirs you refine really made from corpses?”

So that’s what he was afraid of!

Mu Qingge suddenly realized why Ji Yaohua had such a big reaction!

She wanted to joke with him a bit, but she hadn’t finished her business and didn’t have the time. So, she said, ”You’re overthinking it. I need the corpses of gods and demons because I’m refining a special elixir.”

”Really?” Ji Yaohua confirmed again.

Mu Qingge’s face darkened.

Ji Yaohua immediately stopped speaking and gestured to Mu Qingge, indicating he would leave first to not delay her and telling her to stay safe.

As Ji Yaohua fled, Mu Qingge shook her head in amusement, turned around, and continued to search for her target.

Her clear eyes roamed over the corpses.

Finally, she set her sights on one.

The corpse was atop a Divine Beast, sword pointing to the sky, majestic and gallant. The armor on the body was also extremely luxurious, clearly a general of the Divine Clan.

Most importantly, the heroic spirit between his eyebrows made Mu Qingge feel he matched well with Mu Liancheng.

”You’ll do!” Mu Qingge decided in her heart, raised her hand, and stored the Divine Clan general’s corpse into her space, along with his sword and battle armor.

Finding a target gave Mu Qingge some confidence.

At least, she had achieved one of her goals for entering the Divine Demon Ancient Battlefield.

She continued her search and, in the direction the Divine Clan general was facing, saw a Demon Clan general. This Demon Clan general was only wearing skin armor, with deep and resolute features, long hair cascading like waves, and a headband adorned with a bewitching gemstone.

Mu Qingge observed closely and found that the Demon Clan individuals were indeed more robust and imposing than those from the Divine Clan, appearing very intimidating.

Moreover, Demon Clan members hardly used weapons, most of them fighting bare-handed.

Mu Qingge remembered a description in the Divine Strategy Upper Volume, stating that the Demon Clan focused heavily on body refinement, considering their bodies the strongest weapon.

Perhaps it was because of this that the Demon Clan rarely used weapons.

Her eyes fell on the tall and burly corpse of the Demon Clan general, and she nodded to herself. She raised her hand and collected him into her space as well.

Having obtained two god and demon corpses, Mu Qingge glanced towards the cave entrance.

Ying Ze and Ji Yaohua were still passing up Divine Artifacts endlessly. Mu Qingge withdrew her gaze and murmured softly, ”Looks like there’s still time to select another one.”

Mu Qingge started searching among the numerous corpses again, walking for a while, and it seemed like there was another battlefield here. The commanders on both sides were obviously not the two she had taken earlier.

Mu Qingge looked at the Divine Clan general, whose skin was smooth and delicate, scholarly and handsome, slender and lean in physique. However, the hostility between his brows was no weaker than that of the Demon Clan general opposite him.

It was clear that under his leadership, the Divine Clan soldiers on this side of the battlefield suppressed the Demon Clan ferociously. The Demon Clan general had even taken an arrow to the chest, his body tilting backward.

The bow that shot this arrow was held by the Divine Clan general, with a quiver slung over his back and a curved saber hanging at his waist.

Mu Qingge smiled and collected this Divine Clan general into her space, not missing his weapons as well.

”Qingge, it’s about time.” At this moment, Ji Yaohua’s voice came from the cave entrance.

Mu Qingge turned to look and saw they had almost cleared all the Divine Artifacts and were preparing to leave.

Mu Qingge smiled slightly and walked towards them.

The three of them were quite decent, knowing there were more Divine Artifacts inside and that it was safe, but they didn’t get greedy, only collecting those gathered at the cave entrance.

...

When Mu Qingge leaped up to the entrance, the three were already organizing the Divine Artifacts they had picked up.

”There are a total of one thousand three hundred items. Divided into four parts, each person gets three hundred and twenty-five items.” Xi Qianxue, after counting, told the three.

Mu Qingge spoke up, ”I didn’t participate in collecting the Divine Artifacts, so don’t count me in.”

But as soon as she spoke, the three opposed in unison.

”Since we are a team and have made gains, we should share them together,” said Xi Qianxue.

Ying Ze also nodded and let out a soft ”Mm.”

Ji Yaohua teased Mu Qingge, ”If you feel uneasy about it, just refine more elixirs for us in the future. Besides, even though you’re a Holy Level Refiner and might not care for these Divine Artifacts, since they were used by gods and demons, it wouldn’t hurt to pass them on to your subordinates.”

With the three of them saying this, Mu Qingge had no choice but to nod.

Xi Qianxue was very fair, dividing the same type of Divine Artifacts into four equal parts. If they encountered a particularly unique Divine Artifact, each person received one in turn.

If Mu Qingge, Ji Yaohua, or Ying Ze had a special liking, they would set those aside specifically.

Ji Yaohua already had a fan crafted by Mu Qingge and didn’t choose anything for personal preference. These Divine Artifacts were intended to bring back to his family to please the old man, so he didn’t mind.

Mu Qingge, possessing the Linglong Spear and being an Artifact Refiner herself, similarly didn’t care.

Finally, only Ying Ze chose one Divine Artifact among them, a long weapon that was neither gun nor halberd, to become his new weapon.

After dividing the Divine Artifacts, Mu Qingge raised her hand and stowed her share away.

The other three did the same.

After completing these tasks, they planned to continue on their journey.

”Should we block this cave?” Xi Qianxue suggested before leaving.

Ji Yaohua and Ying Ze both looked at Mu Qingge, but Mu Qingge slowly shook her head, ”Here, it’s like a tomb. What difference does it make whether it’s blocked or not? Moreover, with a group of people aiming for their corpses, blocking it will still disturb their peace.”

So, why waste that time?

Her words made Ji Yaohua and Ying Ze agree, and after thinking it over, Xi Qianxue nodded as well.

Suddenly, Ji Yaohua said, ”Qingge, do you think those people might also be using the corpses for alchemy like you?”

Using corpses for alchemy?!

Xi Qianxue and Ying Ze’s faces changed at the same time, looking quite displeased.

Ji Yaohua watched them gloatingly, happy that someone else was finally scared by Mu Qingge.

Mu Qingge immediately saw through Ji Yaohua’s mischievous intentions and explained to the two, ”I need to extract some Divine Demon Essence Blood to refine a special elixir, but I am certain that those who are stealing the corpses have a completely different purpose than mine.” She needed the Divine Demon Essence Blood to refine an elixir that would resurrect Mu Liancheng.

Could it be that the people stealing the corpses are also trying to resurrect the dead? If that’s the case, why are they stealing so many corpses? Just how many people are they planning to resurrect?

Thinking carefully, it’s clear that this is impossible.

Mu Qingge’s explanation eased Xi Qianxue and Ying Ze’s expressions somewhat. Xi Qianxue glared at Ji Yaohua and said to Mu Qingge, ”Let’s hurry and go.”

Mu Qingge nodded, and the four continued to move forward in their prior formation.

”How large is this battlefield, truly? We’ve been advancing for several days, yet we still feel like we haven’t reached the center, remaining at the edge,” Xi Qianxue remarked with a sigh.

They were exhausted, having rested twice, and only now had they barely traversed that strange plain.

Beneath their feet, the soil was no longer transparent, and they could no longer see the war scenes. The ground had returned to its previous black color, and the surrounding black mountains had become clearer.

However, they were still very far away.

This place remained drearily lifeless.

The further they moved, the more fatigued they became, as if their bodies grew heavier and it became difficult to lift their legs.

Ji Yaohua panted heavily and asked, ”Do any of you feel that it’s getting harder and harder? Like we’re carrying a mountain on our backs.”

”It’s gravity!” Mu Qingge was not unfamiliar with this feeling.

In her past life, while training in the military, she frequently trained in gravity rooms. After each training session, her physical fitness, endurance, speed, strength, and other basic qualities would improve.

”What gravity?” Ji Yaohua pressed.

Xi Qianxue and Ying Ze both looked at her as well.

Mu Qingge smiled wryly, unsure how to explain the principles of gravity to the three of them. She said, ”In short, it’s beneficial. If you withstand this force, once you leave this environment, you’ll notice improvements in various aspects of yourselves. Except for not increasing spiritual power, everything else will grow to some extent.”

Mu Qingge sensed that the gravity here was incremental, allowing for a period of adaptation for those who entered.

This phenomenon suggested that the place wasn’t meant to take lives but more as a test. As for why this test was created and who set up this gravity mechanism, she couldn’t ascertain.

”Since Qingge says it’s a good thing, let’s continue bearing it!” Ji Yaohua suggested.

The four continued moving inward, feeling heavier with each step.

Gradually, they could no longer stand upright and had to lean forward. Mu Qingge gritted her teeth, lifted her head, and suddenly saw some faint golden light scattering over the area.

It seemed that these golden rays were the source of the gravity.

”Look, what is that!”

Ying Ze’s warning voice suddenly echoed in Mu Qingge’s ear.

Mu Qingge retracted her gaze and looked ahead, where many floating black shadows appeared.

Xi Qianxue’s complexion changed dramatically upon seeing the shadows, ”It’s them! Those God and Demon soul remnants!”
