Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1754: Chapter 1753 Crush

”Swish!”

The Heart Nurturing Sword flew out, swiftly unsheathing itself.

A streak of sword light shot up from the mountaintop, piercing through the clouds and breaking into the heavens.

”The Heart Nurturing Sword truly lives up to its reputation, as expected of the sword once wielded by Yangxin Superior to dominate an era!”

Kunlun’s Heavenly Realm martial artist, Chen Suming, sighed in admiration. He, too, was a swordsman and naturally understood the immense power of the Heart Nurturing Sword.

However, martial artists of their level had long chosen their own life-bound swords.

Thus, while the Heart Nurturing Sword was mighty, it wasn’t enough to provoke their greed.

The Light Messenger stared at the unsheathed Heart Nurturing Sword, his expression shifting as well.

”So this is the very same Heart Nurturing Sword that suppressed an era a few hundred years ago? Truly extraordinary!”

Lin Dong gripped the Heart Nurturing Sword and struck toward the Earth Dragon, a beast spanning several thousand meters in length.

”Boom!”

The ascending sword light cleaved down onto the Earth Dragon’s massive body, slicing it cleanly in two.

After all, it was not a Real Dragon. If it had been, even split in two, its physical body could have regenerated.

Yet this was merely an Earth Dragon condensed from the power of the earthly veins. Once severed in two, its energy unraveled and dissipated directly into the world.

Watching Lin Dong slice the Earth Dragon apart with the Heart Nurturing Sword, the Kunlun King remarked nonchalantly:

”You do have the strength of a Peak Ninth Stage Grandmaster... but that’s far from enough to defeat me.”

After saying this, the Kunlun King’s figure blurred as he launched a sudden attack on Lin Dong.

”Swish!”

His speed was terrifying!

He moved at a shocking five times the speed of sound!

Lin Dong’s fastest speed barely reached over three times the speed of sound, leaving a noticeable gap between them.

Seeing that he couldn’t evade the incoming attack, Lin Dong quickly activated his physical defense.

”Hiss~~~”

A golden light flared up as Lin Dong unleashed his ’Immortal Golden Body.’ However, unlike the Immortal Golden Body of ordinary Ninth Stage Grandmasters, his had a unique quality.

Beyond the golden glow enveloping his form, his Immortal Golden Body also bore a faint layer of dragon scales.

Witnessing this, the observing Heavenly Realm martial artists expressed their astonishment once again.

”This is actually the prototype of the Dragon Scale Armor of the Dragon Blood Holy Body. Just how many trump cards does this kid have?” The Light Messenger couldn’t help but mutter from within the clouds.

Chen Suming of Kunlun murmured as well, ”This kid must be eliminated. Not only does he possess heaven-defying martial talent, but he also has immense opportunities.”

”If we don’t take him out now, he’ll become an endless source of trouble in the future!”

While Lin Dong’s Immortal Golden Body coalesced, the Kunlun King’s attack had already landed on him.

”Boom!” The Kunlun King’s strike, delivered at five times the speed of sound, was formidable.

It was also executed with a grandmaster-level technique. However, despite the Kunlun King’s powerful assault, Lin Dong’s Immortal Golden Body remained unharmed.

”Bang!” Lin Dong staggered backward by a dozen steps before regaining his footing, standing firm once more in the heavens.

The Kunlun King glanced at Lin Dong’s Immortal Golden Body and nodded slightly, ”Your defense is impressive; it can withstand my basic attacks.”

”But in terms of speed, you’re still far behind. If you rely solely on defense, how can you hope to defeat me?”

With this comment, the Kunlun King intensified his assault on Lin Dong.

”Baji Fist!”

”Tongbei Fist!”

”Mantis Fist!”

”...”

The Kunlun King, a Grandmaster of national martial arts, had mastered eighteen grandmaster-level techniques.

At that moment, he employed them one after another in relentless attacks on Lin Dong.

”Bang bang bang~~~”

Moving at such incredible speed, Lin Dong had no chance to dodge and was continually struck by the Kunlun King’s violent blows mid-air.

Fortunately, Lin Dong’s Immortal Golden Body was robust enough to withstand the barrage of the Kunlun King’s attacks.

Yet, as the Kunlun King had pointed out, if all Lin Dong relied on was defense, his slower speed would ensure he could never win.

Nor would he survive against the Kunlun King.

”Bang bang bang~~~”

Lin Dong endured another thirty or so strikes from the Kunlun King, his body knocked backward again and again.

”I can’t keep going like this.” As the Kunlun King’s grandmaster-level ’Baji Fist’ sent him flying a few hundred meters into a snow mountain, Lin Dong thought to himself.

Immediately, he switched from defense to offense, launching his own attack on the Kunlun King.

”Six Harmonies Dragon Fist!”

Lin Dong unleashed a ferocious Six Harmonies Dragon Fist, aiming it directly at the Kunlun King.

The Kunlun King smiled faintly and said, ”To merge six grandmaster-level techniques into one punch, your martial talent is truly unparalleled throughout history!”

”This integrated punch has already transcended the grandmaster level and is comparable to Ancient Martial Arts!”

”But, the gap in strength and speed between us is still there. Even with this Six Harmonies Dragon Fist, you won’t be able to harm me.”

”Whoosh!” With a soft sound, the Kunlun King effortlessly evaded Lin Dong’s Six Harmonies Dragon Fist.

As he had claimed, Lin Dong couldn’t so much as graze him.

Not only could Lin Dong not harm him, but he couldn’t even touch the hem of his robe.

The Kunlun King’s speed was simply too overwhelming.

However, Lin Dong’s attacks weren’t intended to wound him—but rather to turn the tide from defense to offense.

Still, this strategy could only work temporarily.

Seeing through Lin Dong’s intentions, the Kunlun King smiled slightly. While dodging Lin Dong’s strike, he simultaneously counterattacked.

”Swoosh!”

Evading Lin Dong’s attack, the Kunlun King flashed behind him in an instant.

”Lotus Fist!” The Kunlun King’s hands swiftly formed a seal, creating a lotus-shaped hand imprint.

Then, from between his hands, he launched a devastating punch!

”Boom!”

The punch landed squarely on Lin Dong’s back.

Lin Dong felt as though his back had been struck by a missile. His body was blasted backward uncontrollably.

This attack was clearly far more powerful than the previous ones. Even though Lin Dong used Inner Qi to defend himself, and even with the Immortal Golden Body absorbing the blow, his body was still flung over ten kilometers away.

”Crash!!”

Lin Dong’s body slammed into a massive snow mountain, embedding him deep into its icy core.

Seeing this, the Light Messenger laughed and said, ”Master Lin, I told you—you could never be a match for the Kunlun King.”

Chen Suming’s lips curled into a faint smile. The Kunlun King’s strength was unrivaled beneath the Heavenly Realm.

In his prime, he had been a figure worthy of standing shoulder to shoulder with Tianjiao like Lin Zhantian, known as the ”Twin Stars” of their era.

Such a man—how could a mere early-stage Ninth Level Grandmaster of the younger generation possibly challenge him?

From hundreds of miles away, the Old Ancestor of the Lin family also witnessed the scene, a smile tugging at the corners of her lips.

”In my eyes, the Kunlun King is a threat only second to Heavenly Realm martial artists. How could you, Lin Dong, ever hope to challenge him?”

She had absolute confidence in the Kunlun King from the very beginning.

For the Kunlun King to kill Lin Dong, to her, was as simple as squashing an ant.

What she was concerned about, however, was whether the Kunlun King would actually deliver the killing blow.

After all, back then, the Kunlun King and Lin Zhantian had been deeply connected.

The Old Ancestor of the Lin family continued watching. She wanted to witness with her own eyes the moment the Kunlun King ended Lin Dong’s life.
