The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Chapter 1509: Chapter 1502: Fuu Jiujiu

In the distance.

Lin Tian already caught sight of the Dead Spirit Pond.

All around.

Piles of ruins like mountains.

Crumbling walls, skeletal remains, broken swords, and tattered banners scattered high up.

This place, either remnants of ancient city walls or the collapse of ancient buildings after a great battle.

Aged aura, vast like an arching rainbow, rushing forth from afar.

However.

After countless years of decay and corrosion in this Dead Spirit Swamp, everything is shrouded in thick black smoke.

Compared to before.

The toxic mist and miasma of the swamp here are even more intense and astonishing.

However.

Within the surrounding few miles of the Dead Spirit Pond, sparse vegetation grows.

In stark contrast with the vast ruins and endless swamp land.

Farther in, lies a shimmering pond like a mirror.

Above it, spiraling spiritual energy, rising like tidal waves, vast like an arching rainbow, erupting into the sky.

Such grandeur, invisible outside the swamp land.

It shows the dense and terrifying nature of the Dead Spirit Swamp’s toxic mist and miasma!

But now.

By the Dead Spirit Pond, several figures and a massive form are engaged in battle, magic soaring.

Moreover, Lin Tian steps lightly in the air and notices certain areas of the swamp’s mist gradually thinning.

Seemingly forming a path of entry and exit within the swamp, mysteriously and invisibly.

”What’s going on?”

Lin Tian looked surprised and couldn’t help but turn back to the path he had come from.

Indeed.

The mist behind him also gradually thinned, following the dissipation.

A passage free of toxic mist and miasma appeared.

As Lin Tian’s Divine Sense expanded, he found he could probe several hundred meters around.

”What’s happening in front of us?”

Lin Tian turned towards Sikou Hen, whom he was holding, and asked sternly.

At this moment.

Seeing the swamp’s toxic mist dissipating and a passage appearing, Sikou Hen was equally shocked.

”This... someone has destroyed the Dead Spirit Pond!”

Sikou Hen regained composure and quickly responded to Lin Tian, ”The battle ahead might have affected it greatly. It’s rumored that the Dead Spirit Pond holds the secrets of the Dead Spirit Swamp; as for what, I don’t know. But generally, when anomalies occur, it’s because the Dead Spirit Pond has been damaged!”

”The Dead Spirit Pond seems quite mysterious! To cover such vast swamp lands, entering the swamp only begins to feel its effects!”

Lin Tian’s eyes flashed with excitement and anticipation as he gazed at the distant pond, and he turned to Sikou Hen with a smile, ”You’ve led the way as far as needed; there’s nothing more for you!”

Nothing more for me!

Sikou Hen’s face lit up with joy, his heart full of excitement.

But soon, he realized, his expression changed drastically: ”Spare me, please!!!”

Sikou Hen shouted loudly, begging and hoping to preserve his life.

Lin Tian was very powerful; he couldn’t muster any defiance.

Yet, he didn’t wish to die!

Reaching the Golden Core realm meant enduring many life-and-death encounters.

Reaching this level meant possessing tremendous Qi Fortune.

Among millions of cultivators, very few manage to reach the Golden Core Stage, which is exceedingly rare!

Someone like him, standing at the pinnacle of the Demon Cloud Ridge Cultivation Domain, wielding high cultivation, admired by countless cultivators.

Yet facing true life-and-death moments, they fear more than ordinary people!

Because.

Reaching the Golden Core realm is no easy feat!

”Spare you?”

In Lin Tian’s eyes, a cold flash appeared, as he smirked and with a buzz in his hand, the Samadhi True Fire swirled forth.

Sikou Hen couldn’t even scream before he was reduced to ashes, scattered in the vast swamp lands.

The infamous Demon Cloud Ghosts, Sikou Hen and Sikou Shen, thus met their demise.

Both perished at Lin Tian’s hand.

However.

Their Golden Cores were meticulously collected by Lin Tian.

Though the people were gone, the Golden Core is indeed a precious item!

Seizing a Golden Core is typically the act of a Demon Cultivator!

Yet now, after taking the Golden Cores of Sikou Hen and Sikou Shen, Lin Tian felt no guilt.

The pair themselves were on the path of demon cultivation, to use their Golden Cores for his cultivation seemed justifiable!

”Let’s go see... those several battling with the massive figure, seems like it’s also a giant serpent demon beast!”

Gazing afar towards the Dead Spirit Pond area, Lin Tian muttered softly, then stepped forward, moving slowly along the low altitude.

Moments later.

Lin Tian approached the Dead Spirit Pond.

Seeing the battle clearly.

The massive figure, resembling a small mountain.

It’s also a giant serpent, entirely pitch black, even darker than the previous serpent, with rising black smoke from its body, spewing out rolling toxic mist and venom, enough to make one’s scalp crawl.

This black serpent closely resembles the formerly slain serpent by Lin Tian.

However.

Its size shrunk several times, and its aura is akin to a human cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage, roughly a Second Grade Demon Beast.

Nonetheless, compared to humans, it’s still akin to a small mountain!

Compared to a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator, it remains considerably powerful!

”Is this serpent a child of that older serpent? Serpent-type demon beasts have numerous varieties, particularly in such swamp lands, and are amongst the most formidable! They even have the chance to transform into a Flood Dragon! Yet, for such serpents, becoming a true Flood Dragon is incredibly far off, without tens of thousands of years of cultivation and transformation, paired with supreme Qi Fortune, aspiring to be that close to a Nascent Soul Cultivator is inconceivable...”

Lin Tian looked surprised, secretly speculating.

First-rank demon beast is akin to the Qi Refinement Realm for human cultivators!

Second to third-tier demon beasts correspond to the Foundation Establishment Stage and Fake Core Realm in humans!

Third-level top demon beasts exceed ordinary Golden Core Early Stage in power!

Fourth-rank demon beast aligns with the cultivation of the Golden Core Middle Stage!

Fifth-level demon beasts are stronger than even Golden Core Late Stage cultivators!

Sixth-Grade demon beasts match False Infant Stage cultivators!

As for the seventh-rank... they can transform into human form, cultivate Supreme Battle Techniques, not weaker than any Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!

”I wonder if Earth harbors such transformed demon beasts?”

Lin Tian quietly thought, meanwhile his gaze fell onto the figures battling the black python demon beast.

Battling the black python demon beast were several girls, all wearing moon-blue Hezi skirts, pale blue belts fluttering like immortals as the spiritual power surged within them.

All wore similar attire, appearing in their twenties, clearly disciples of a particular sect.

Yet, these girls wield impressive cultivation, each ranging from early to late-stage Foundation Establishment.

Two of the girls were injured, huddled nearby, faces pale.

At present, three girls continued their fierce battle with the black python.

The black python was covered in blood, also gravely wounded.

Despite its might, facing so many attacks, it was hard to endure, being outnumbered.

Soon the black python was gradually facing defeat.

For the girls to slay it, was only a matter of time.

”Who’s there!”

At this time, a girl noticed Lin Tian’s arrival, and shouted softly.

”Senior Sister, the Dead Spirit Pond has been damaged, all other entrances are now passable!”

Another girl hastily spoke to a foundation establishment late-stage girl.

The leading girl held a longsword shimmering with pale blue blood light, she slashed vehemently at the black python, raising flying scales.

”Wind Snow City, Fuu Jiujiu! If you don’t want trouble, please leave!”

The girl wielded the longsword, her skirt fluttering fiercely, aura vast like an arching rainbow, her icy beautiful eyes radiating indifference, as she turned to Lin Tian and shouted sharply.
