Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2986: Chapter 2985: I Will Definitely Repay You Well in the Future

Soon, Lin Dong brought Ye Linglong to a swamp area surrounded by water elements.

Lin Dong and Ye Linglong hovered side by side in the sky, their gaze locked on a colossal creature in the distance.

It was a nine-star demon king, emitting a chilling pressure that made one’s heart tremble. Its scales glimmered coldly in the sunlight, and each breath seemed to stir the winds and clouds.

Lin Dong knew well that such an opponent was undoubtedly too powerful for Ye Linglong at this moment. But it was precisely such challenges that could rapidly enhance her proficiency in the ”Five Shadows Step” in real combat.

”Linglong, remember, our goal is not to defeat it but to use the ’Five Shadows Step’ to evade its attacks, enhancing our speed and agility.”

Lin Dong’s voice was steady and gentle, transmitted into her ears through sound transmission.

His words were like a warm flow, soothing the trace of trepidation in Ye Linglong’s heart.

Ye Linglong took a deep breath, nodded, and her eyes shone with determination.

She knew it was a rare opportunity and a challenge to her limits.

With Lin Dong’s command, she approached the nine-star demon king swiftly like a breeze.

It seemed the demon king also sensed the intruder, letting out a roar, its massive body trembling violently, causing the ground to quake.

The battle was about to erupt.

Initially, Ye Linglong seemed a bit flustered, facing the nine-star demon king’s storm-like attacks. She had to frequently use the ”Five Shadows Step” to avoid them.

But since she wasn’t proficient enough, her speed wasn’t fast enough, she was always struck by the residual power of the nine-star demon king.

Of course, that residual power wasn’t enough to injure her.

But she did look quite pathetic, like being chased away...

However, as time went by, with each dodge, her understanding of the ”Five Shadows Step” deepened.

The coordination between her body and inner Qi was becoming more harmonious.

Lin Dong quietly observed from the side, nodding inwardly.

He knew Ye Linglong was growing rapidly.

”Swish, swish, swish~~~”

As the battle progressed, Ye Linglong’s Five Shadows Step speed became faster and faster, initially five times the speed of sound, gradually increasing to six, seven, even eight times the speed of sound.

Her figure traversed the forest like ghost apparitions, dazzling the nine-star demon king, with each attack missing its target.

Finally, after a brilliant dodge, Ye Linglong’s speed reached an astonishing nine times the speed of sound, her figure almost transforming into a stream of light, making the demon king completely lose its target.

More surprisingly, Ye Linglong was not only able to move at such speed but also split into five almost indistinguishable doppelgangers, left or right, front or behind, plunging the nine-star demon king into chaos.

The nine-star demon king simply couldn’t discern which doppelganger was real, nor which was her true self.

Every chase led to a doppelganger, and each strike fell on nothingness.

The angry nine-star demon king kept spewing fire, shouting, ”Damn human, if you dare, stop running. Like a rat, abhorrent.”

”When I catch you, I will tear you apart.”

Ye Linglong now was merely at the early stage of Stage Five Grandmaster. Yet, facing a nine-star demon king that far exceeded her, she maneuvered with ease,

”Haha... big guy, wait till you catch me, then talk tough.”

Ye Linglong’s voice came from all directions, with some teasing and provocation.

This further enraged the nine-star demon king, spewing fire continuously and roaring, yet never able to touch Ye Linglong’s true self.

Seeing the current situation, Lin Dong knew that Ye Linglong had truly mastered the ”Five Shadows Step.”

Of course, she still couldn’t unleash the ten times the speed of sound of the ”Five Shadows Step” nor maintain five doppelgangers for several days like Lin Dong.

But now, Ye Linglong could indeed achieve nine times the speed of sound with the Five Shadows Step, and maintain five doppelgangers for several hours...

This achievement was more than enough!

Nine times the speed of sound, among grandmasters, was already exceptional.

And maintaining doppelgangers for hours was sufficient for battle.

”Excellent, you have successfully cultivated the Five Shadows Step.” Lin Dong’s voice was kind and filled with commendation, his eyes revealed satisfaction with Ye Linglong’s growth.

He slowly turned to the demon king that had lost its value and continued speaking, ”This demon king is of no value anymore. Its mission is complete, next, let me kill it.”

”Let it exert its final warmth.”

Its final warmth was of course the five elements energy within it. The five elements energy within the nine-star demon king was not very significant for Lin Dong.

But for Ye Linglong, the help was considerable. It could aid her in significantly increasing her strength.

Lin Dong’s words about killing the nine-star demon king were calm and resolute.

As if stating an established fact.

This, however, incited the nine-star demon king’s intense rage.

Its gigantic body trembled, eyes filled with unwillingness and rage, and it roared at Lin Dong, ”You human old fart, how dare you say such words as merely a half-step Earth Realm martial artist?”

The nine-star demon king’s words were full of disdain and contempt, it apparently underestimated Lin Dong’s real strength.

At the moment, Lin Dong appeared as Li Zhaixing, with his cultivation realm level deliberately suppressed to the level of a half-step Earth Realm martial artist. To a nine-star demon king, he seemed to be just an insignificant old fart.

However, it didn’t know that Lin Dong’s true strength far exceeded this level, his disguise was merely to hide his identity better.

Facing the demon king’s provocation, Lin Dong did not get angry, his face still maintained a calm smile.

He didn’t reply, simply extended his finger slowly, pointing towards the demon king.

At that moment, the air seemed to freeze, all the clamor and unrest became still.

”Swish~~~” A beam of white light shot out from Lin Dong’s finger, the speed shockingly fast, unimaginable.

This white light pierced through the air like lightning, instantly penetrating the nine-star demon king’s head.

In the demon king’s eyes flashed a trace of astonishment and fear, but it didn’t even have time to react before falling under Lin Dong’s formidable power.

It died, its massive body slowly collapsing, stirring up a cloud of dust.

And at the moment of its death, a water attribute water energy, shimmering with blue light, floated out from its body.

This water energy, containing the essence and strength of the nine-star demon king’s lifetime, was a great tonic item for Ye Linglong at this moment.

Upon seeing this, Ye Linglong immediately stepped forward and cautiously absorbed that water energy into her body.

”Boom~~~”

With the integration of the water energy, her strength surged rapidly, breaking through from the early stage of Stage Five Grandmaster to the mid-stage.

Her face was filled with joy; she knew all this was attributed to Lin Dong’s generosity.

”Lin Dong, you’ve been so good to me. In the future, I’ll definitely give you ten or eight sons to repay you...” she thought in her heart.

These words, she only thought in her heart. If she were to say them directly, letting Lin Dong hear, Lin Dong might be scared.

Give me ten or eight sons?

Is this how you repay me?

Even for Lin Dong, facing so many sons, would surely be a headache.
