Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 1759: Chapter 1758: The Person Against the Heaven!

”Boom～～～”

The residual energy generated by the clash of Ancient Martial Arts between the two at this moment is truly terrifying to the extreme.

Even Earth Realm martial artists within a hundred-mile radius would be severely injured by the residual impact!

Fortunately, Lin Tiance, Xiao Ya, and the others observing from the sidelines were far enough from the heart of the battle. Otherwise, at this moment, they would likely have been directly shattered by the aftershocks.

The battle between the two had reached such a level that even the few Divine Ranking experts could no longer see clearly.

One reason was the fact that the distance was too great.

The other was that Lin Dong and King Kunlun were battling above the clouds, and their speed had reached such a blinding pace that even those on the Divine Ranking couldn’t discern it from afar.

Even those few Divine Ranking experts could only see brilliant lights flashing continuously in the sky.

As for the Old Patriarch of the Lin Family and Ye Qingcang, their situation was slightly better than the others on the Divine Ranking—they could make out faint shadows of the battle.

However, it was far less clear than at the beginning.

The only ones who could clearly follow the current battle between Lin Dong and King Kunlun were Chen Suming, the Light Messenger, the Inspector Elder, and the female Heavenly Realm Martial Artist.

”The reason King Kunlun can wield such a variety of Ancient Martial Arts is due to his deep foundation. His use of techniques from various sects of Ancient Martial Arts isn’t surprising. But this Lin Dong, at such a young age, can also perform numerous Ancient Martial techniques?”

”Moreover, the methods he’s employing hail from ancient times. It seems that not only is his martial talent extraordinary, but his fortune must also be equally remarkable.”

The female Heavenly Realm Martial Artist from among the four watching couldn’t help but think to herself.

Though she stood as one of the Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, even she did not command as many techniques as Lin Dong.

The Light Messenger couldn’t suppress a sigh of admiration and said, ”To achieve this level at the early stage of Ninth Stage Grandmaster and fight King Kunlun to a draw—it’s simply monstrous!”

”If he were to break through and become a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, I fear the moment he steps into that realm, he’d immediately overshadow us elder Heavenly Realm practitioners!”

Chen Suming furrowed his brows tightly. He hadn’t expected Lin Dong to be able to contend with King Kunlun to such an extent.

He had originally thought that with King Kunlun’s methods, suppressing Lin Dong would be effortless, and at most, he would need ten moves to slay him.

But who could have foreseen that this battle had lasted hundreds of exchanges, and the heavens and earth themselves seemed to pale in comparison.

”Impressive. To endure hundreds of rounds in battle with me—your strength is truly unrivaled at the same stage,” King Kunlun remarked while exchanging blows with Lin Dong.

Hearing this, Lin Dong replied in a deep voice, ”Unrivaled at the same stage? If I were truly unrivaled at the same stage, you would already be defeated.”

”You and I are both Ninth Stage Grandmasters. If I cannot defeat you, then I am not unrivaled at the same stage.”

”Hahaha...” King Kunlun suddenly laughed and said, ”You cannot defeat me because you and I are not truly in the same stage.”

Hearing this, Lin Dong’s expression drastically changed and he exclaimed, ”Could it be that you’re a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist?”

”Of course not!” King Kunlun shook his head.

”If you’re not a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, then you must be a Peak Ninth Stage Grandmaster, while I am at the early stage of the Ninth Stage Grandmaster. We both belong to the Ninth Stage Grandmaster level. If that isn’t the same stage, then what is?” Lin Dong countered.

King Kunlun chuckled, then suddenly spoke with a solemn tone, ”Have you ever considered the possibility that there is a rank between the Ninth Stage Grandmaster and the Heavenly Realm Martial Artist?”

As he said this, the momentum emanating from King Kunlun suddenly rose, climbing to an even more terrifying level.

”Boom!” A surge of violet Qi erupted from King Kunlun, soaring into the heavens, exuding a presence seemingly equal to that of a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist.

And yet, it wasn’t quite the same as a true Heavenly Realm Martial Artist!

Seeing this, Lin Dong was filled with confusion.

What exactly was King Kunlun’s level of strength?

Suddenly, within Lin Dong’s mind, the Sovereign Witch’s shocked voice echoed:

”This is... this is a Tenth Stage Grandmaster! He’s actually a Tenth Stage Grandmaster!”

Hearing the Sovereign Witch’s exclamation, Lin Dong grew even more perplexed. Communicating mentally with the Sovereign Witch, he curiously asked:

”Senior Sovereign Witch, isn’t the level above Ninth Stage Grandmaster supposed to be a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist? How could there be a Tenth Stage Grandmaster?”

The Sovereign Witch responded to Lin Dong’s inquiry, ”That’s true. In general, surpassing the Ninth Stage Grandmaster leads directly to becoming a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist!”

”For the majority of any era, that is indeed the case. But every so often, there are outliers—extraordinary anomalies!”

”These individuals, after reaching the peak of the Ninth Stage Grandmaster, can continue to break through, condensing a tenth golden elixir within their Dantian and ascending to become Tenth Stage Grandmasters!”

”In ancient times, anyone capable of condensing a tenth elixir was known as an ’Against the Heavens Person’!”

”These ’Against the Heavens People’ are positioned in direct opposition to those favored by heaven—the ’Heaven’s Chosen’!”

”I never would’ve imagined that in this Age of Dharma End, an ’Against the Heavens Person’ would emerge. And to think, he would be your opponent right now!”

Listening to the Sovereign Witch’s explanation, Lin Dong finally understood: there existed Tenth Stage Grandmasters in this world.

And King Kunlun was one!

Such individuals were known as ’Against the Heavens People’!

”Your martial talent and path of growth bear a striking resemblance to those of a ’Heaven’s Chosen.’ And now, facing an ’Against the Heavens Person’ as your adversary—perhaps this is destiny’s arrangement...” the Sovereign Witch murmured.

Hearing this, Lin Dong couldn’t help but softly mutter, ”Am I a Heaven’s Chosen? Am I, Lin Dong, truly a Heaven’s Chosen?”

Meanwhile, King Kunlun’s momentum continued to rise. The violet Qi emanating from him pierced through the clouds and surged toward the east!

The violet Qi arose in the east, defying the heavens!

His transformation left even the Heavenly Realm Martial Artists observing the battle visibly shaken.

”It turns out King Kunlun is a legend—the rumored Tenth Stage Grandmaster! He actually condensed a tenth golden elixir within his Dantian. No wonder he hasn’t broken through to the Heavenly Realm Martial Artist stage all these years. I thought, under the suppression of the Age of Dharma End, even someone as gifted as King Kunlun couldn’t achieve a breakthrough... but now it seems that wasn’t the case.”

”What he was doing was forging a new path! He seeks to walk the ’Against the Heavens Path!’”

Chen Suming looked at King Kunlun with a deeply complex gaze.

All along, he had regarded King Kunlun very highly, believing he would be the second person, after Lin Zhantian, to break through to the Heavenly Realm during the Age of Dharma End—and very soon, at that.

But now, in hindsight, despite having revered King Kunlun so greatly, he still underestimated him.

It turned out that attaining the Heavenly Realm was not his ultimate pursuit.

What he sought was the ’Against the Heavens Path!’

King Kunlun, oh King Kunlun, how blind I was to your true ambition!

The Light Messenger, too, was utterly stunned as he looked at King Kunlun.

”The Kunlun King of Dragon Country is truly a peerless hero! To think he could cultivate a tenth golden elixir, reaching the legendary ten-star saint level!”

”Master Lin, today is your day of reckoning!”

The Inspector Elder murmured as well:

”Ah, King Kunlun—so the world has been underestimating you all along. Previously, we all said that Lin Zhantian was the number one figure of your generation. But now, it seems you are no less than your junior brother, Lin Zhantian!”

Violet Qi soared into the heavens as Lin Zhantian, wielding the power of a Tenth Stage Grandmaster, appeared like a celestial demon descending to earth. Even the firmament itself seemed to defy its natural course.
