Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2826: Chapter 2825: Kill - Temporary Retreat!

After that sword’s brilliance, even the sky seemed to tremble. Though the sword light had dissipated, its residual power lingered in the air, evoking awe in everyone.

The Gale Queen, clad in fiery red battle armor, had a resolute and fierce gleam in her eyes. Beside her, the Golden Buddha Kuerzan was radiant in golden light, resembling a living Buddha descended, exuding unquestionable authority between his brows.

Meanwhile, Dragon Knight Vincent was mounted on his mighty flood dragon, wings slightly extended, as if ready to launch a deadly strike at any moment.

The three stared at a nearby figure, where Lin Dong seemed particularly frail. The sword he had just unleashed drained nearly all of his strength, leaving his face paper-white, body nearly collapsing.

This weakened state provided the Gale Queen, Golden Buddha Kuerzan, and Dragon Knight Vincent with a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

An opportunity to completely end Lin Dong’s life.

”Now, it’s time to end it all.” The voice of the Gale Queen Alya was as cold as ice as she slowly raised her long sword, the sword tip pointed directly at Lin Dong, as if ready to tear the space and claim the enemy’s head in the next second.

The Golden Buddha Kuerzan put his hands together, chanting Buddha’s name, as golden Buddha’s light surged from his body, forming layers of light screens shielding him tightly, clearly making the final preparations for the battle to come.

Dragon Knight Vincent lightly patted the neck of the giant dragon beneath him. The dragon seemed to sense its master’s intent, let out a low growl and flapped its wings, stirring up a fierce wind that made the battlefield’s atmosphere even more tense and oppressive.

However, just as the three were about to take action, with victory seemingly within reach, a glint appeared in Lin Dong’s eyes.

His expression remained composed and undaunted as ever, as if no powerful enemy could affect his mental state.

Just then, he moved slightly, rapidly forming seal gestures with his hands, chanting incantations, followed by a violent tremor from the ground beneath him, as if responding to his call.

”Earth Dragon Treasure Technique!” With Lin Dong’s low shout, his body seemed to merge with the earth, gradually becoming blurry until it completely vanished from everyone’s sight, leaving not a trace of breath.

This scene left the Gale Queen, Golden Buddha Kuerzan, and Dragon Knight Vincent looking at each other in shock.

”What kind of skill is he using? How can he disappear so suddenly?” The Gale Queen Alya’s brows furrowed, her tone full of disbelief.

Dragon Knight Vincent pondered for a moment, his gaze deep, slowly speaking:

”I have reviewed detailed information about him and remember that he indeed mastered a skill known as the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique.”

”I just never expected this skill to be so miraculous, even in such a weakened state he could execute it so flawlessly.”

Golden Buddha Kuerzan shook his head slightly, showing a hint of helplessness on his face:

”With this, aren’t we just watching him escape? This Earth Dragon Treasure Technique is indeed troublesome.”

”Indeed troublesome.” The Gale Queen Alya tightly gripped the sword hilt, a trace of unwillingness flashing in her eyes, ”I hope next time we meet, we’ll have a better strategy. Lin Dong, your life, I will take it sooner or later!”

As the Gale Queen’s words fell, the three withdrew their offense, but the air was still filled with a lingering killing intent and urgency.

Lin Dong’s display of the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique not only temporarily took him out of peril but also cast a shadow over the hearts of the three.

After all, if Lin Dong reappears next time, he would surely have recovered well.

And when he has recovered, who could withstand ’Sword Two’ as he did just now?

”Next, in this Five Elements Land, I suggest we three should team up.” At this moment, the Golden Buddha Kuerzan spoke.

This suggestion naturally received immediate approval from the other two.

The Gale Queen said, ”I think the Golden Buddha Kuerzan’s suggestion is excellent. If our team of three stays together, even if Lin Dong has recovered, he would be deterred from showing up. He would be wary of us.”

”If we split up, he will definitely take us down one by one.”

Dragon Knight Vincent nodded, this was the best method they could think of.

Though this method isn’t very effective either.

Because when they previously joined forces as four, ’Thunder’ died just the same, didn’t he?

But this way, at least it’s better than being alone. Alone facing Lin Dong would be certain death.

Moreover, he wouldn’t have any suspicion, and just directly use ’Sword Two’.

But if they team up, at least Lin Dong would be cautious.

...

Under the vast horizon, Lin Dong’s figure suddenly vanished from the original location, as if swallowed by space, leaving just a faint ripple, the unique traversing power of the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique.

In a matter of moments, he had crossed thousands of mountains and waters, appearing in a distant and unfamiliar place—.

Here, the Five Elements were extremely dense, a treasured land for cultivators, naturally also an excellent place for recuperation and recovery.

”It will be here.” Lin Dong did not continue to move but stopped.

Lin Dong knew well that the Five Elements Land was vast and boundless with complex and varied terrain, along with special sensing prohibitions.

As long as he did not proactively expose his whereabouts, even the most skillful tracking enemies would find it difficult to lock onto his position quickly.

Thus, there was no need to worry, that the Gale Queen, Golden Buddha Kuerzan, or Dragon Knight Vincent would find him.

Finding a secluded mountain valley, surrounded by dense woods isolating from outer world prying, Lin Dong decided to first restore his strength and inner qi.

He knew that although he had defeated Thunder with ”Sword Two” in the recent battle.

This trick also consumed enormous energy, unlike any usual consumption recovery cycle. The execution of ”Sword Two,” even with an auxiliary such as Deadwood Dan, a Precious Dan medicine, required time to slowly nourish the exhausted meridians and depleted inner qi.

Lin Dong sat cross-legged, with closed eyes, from the Storage Ring, took out three Precious Deadwood Dan.

These three medicines, each contained a strong wood attribute spiritual energy, were the top choices for healing injuries and replenishing inner qi.

Without hesitation, he swallowed the Dan medicine, and instantly, a gentle power flowed within his body, nourishing every inch of skin and every meridian.

However, recovery does not happen at once. Even with the help of Deadwood Dan, Lin Dong still needed to guide the power to integrate with his inner qi and gradually repair the damage from the battle.

He took a deep breath, following a specific breathing technique, sinking his consciousness into the dantian, guiding the medicinal power along particular meridians. Each cycle made him feel the inner qi slowly restoring, and his body gradually regaining vitality.

Time quietly passed, in the mountain valley other than occasional beast roars and wind sounds, there were no other noises.

Lin Dong seemed to merge with this world, entering a state of forgetting both oneself and the external world.

The long two-hour wait, perhaps dull and unbearable for ordinary people, but for Lin Dong, at the critical moment of recovery, every minute and every second was crucial.

Finally, when the last trace of medicinal power was fully absorbed, Lin Dong slowly opened his eyes, a gleam in his eye.

He stood up, lightly swinging his arm, feeling the abundant inner qi inside and a body sturdier than before.

He knew he had restored to his optimal state, even if those three caught up now, he would have no worries.

And he was unaware of the immense uproar caused in the outer world, because he had killed Thunder.
