Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2725: Chapter 2724: Dracula Comes for Lin Dong!

Lin Dong was preparing to leave this battlefield, ravaged by the aftermath of combat.

However, at this critical moment, a sudden, powerful aura shattered the surrounding silence, exploding like thunder in Lin Dong’s heart.

This aura, completely different from the previous demon beasts’ savageness and primitiveness, carried a uniquely human martial artist’s calmness and depth, as if it were a sharp edge honed from endless battles and years.

Lin Dong’s brows furrowed slightly; he could clearly feel the owner of this aura was so strong that they had reached the realm of Fourth Layer of Heavenly Realm.

Such an expert is as rare as a phoenix feather and unicorn horn, even in the Extraterrestrial Battlefield full of strong individuals.

Lin Dong quickly composed himself, focusing all his attention on the source of this aura.

He slowly turned around, his gaze like a torch, piercing through layers of mist finally fixed on a slowly approaching figure.

It was a man whose face was pale to the point of being almost transparent, as if he had never seen sunlight, his body exuding an indescribable eerie aura from the Ancient European Country.

His eyes were deep and hollow, seemingly capable of devouring all light, making one feel a sudden heart palpitation upon a glance.

”Who are you?” Lin Dong used Inner Qi to issue a vast and ethereal voice.

”Dracula...” the man slowly spoke.

Lin Dong silently recited this name in his heart; he immediately recognized this Ancient European Country man’s identity.

At the Dragon Country Extraterrestrial Battlefield base, Heavenly Envoy Dugu Tian had once provided information about the Extraterrestrial Battlefield.

Among them was a document recording some of the top-tier experts of the battlefield.

Among them, Dracula was strikingly listed.

He was a top expert in the first echelon, below the Secondary Ancestors.

On the Five Elements Stele, he ranked fifth among the Blood Clan experts, existing by feasting on fresh blood to enhance power, possessing a half-dead body and mysterious abilities.

The bloody aura from this person’s body made even Lin Dong feel a suffocating pressure originating from the depths of his soul when facing him.

Dracula stepped lightly and elegantly, each step seemingly atop an invisible melody, his figure lengthening sinisterly under the sunset’s glow.

His gaze paused on Lin Dong for a moment, finally fixed on the Sword of Wuji in Lin Dong’s hand, a barely perceptible greed and longing flashing in those hollow eyes.

”Really unexpected, to encounter a young expert like you in the Extraterrestrial Battlefield.” Dracula’s voice was deep and hoarse, as if a call from a distant shore, carrying an irresistible allure.

His mouth curved into an eerie smile, that smile both acknowledged Lin Dong’s strength and showed the excitement of treating Lin Dong as ’prey’.

Lin Dong stood quietly at the original location, his gaze firm and calm, the Sword of Wuji in his hand trembling slightly, as if making final preparations for the impending battle.

In the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, anyone could be your opponent.

Or rather, might want to kill you!

Faced with Dracula’s pale-as-paper appearance hiding profound dangers, Lin Dong’s expression became more cautious than ever.

He squinted slightly, a hint of probing and wariness in his tone: ”You seem to have specifically come looking for me? Is it possible you want a life-death duel with me?”

Upon hearing this, Dracula’s mouth curved into an amused smile, his laughter echoed across the empty battlefield, carrying a trace of mockery and rebellion:

”Young man, indeed you are direct enough. Since you’ve been so straightforward about it, I won’t bother hiding anything from you anymore.”

His words paused, his gaze drifting over Lin Dong, as if appraising a precious artwork.

”That’s right, I did specifically come to find you. I wanted to see what kind of an extraordinary person you are, racing to fifth on the Five Elements Stele, soon to surpass me. Meeting you today has truly fulfilled my wish!”

Dracula’s words carried a touch of admiration, but more so, an indescribable complex emotion.

Lin Dong’s heart moved slightly, but he maintained a calm and guarded demeanor.

He knew, strong individuals like Dracula would never act rashly, nor would they easily reveal their true intentions.

At this moment, Dracula continued, ”As for coming to arrange a life-death duel with you? Huh, I wouldn’t be foolish enough to engage in a life-death duel with someone capable of slaughtering a Four-Star Demon Emperor. After all, we have no enmity, right?”

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong smiled slightly, neither caring if Dracula spoke truthfully nor saying anything further.

Dracula’s eyes seemingly flashed a faint, imperceptible light as he continued, ”What, Lin Dong, my friend, don’t you believe me? Haha, I, Dracula, though fond of warfare, would not make meaningless sacrifices. Besides, we indeed have no deep hatred.”

Lin Dong maintained a guarded posture, knowing that although Dracula’s words sounded sincere, they might hide a bigger plot behind them.

He said, ”I truly don’t believe you only came to see me. Would a Fourth Layered Heavenly Realm martial artist ranking fifth on the Five Elements Stele be so idle?”

Dracula’s laughter gradually subdued, his gaze becoming serious, then slowly said, ”Well, naturally I didn’t just come to see you; there’s indeed one thing I want to propose cooperation for.”

Upon saying so, Dracula deliberately paused, seemingly observing Lin Dong’s reaction.

And Lin Dong, was watching him full of vigilance, waiting for his next words.

”This matter is of great importance, if rumors spread, it might affect the entire Extraterrestrial Battlefield’s situation. Even some deeply hidden Secondary Ancestors might be tempted.” There was temptation and mystery in Dracula’s words, causing Lin Dong to furrow his brows.

However, just as Lin Dong prepared to further inquire, Dracula suddenly shifted his tone, saying:

”But now isn’t the time to tell you yet. When you’ve truly surpassed me on the Five Elements Stele, I’ll come find you again.”

Having said that, Dracula’s figure flickered, transforming into a black remnant shadow, instantly disappearing from Lin Dong’s sight.

Leaving only Lin Dong standing in the original location, his heart full of confusion and vigilance.

He knew, Dracula’s appearance absolutely couldn’t be that simple. Also, this sudden ”cooperation,” was making him feel it was far from simple.

”This Dracula, what exactly is his purpose in targeting me?” Lin Dong murmured to himself.

”Forget it, let’s continue on the journey, the War God Ranking competition is about to start soon. I previously promised Heavenly Envoy Dugu Tian to represent the Dragon Country War Department in the battle. I can’t go back on my word!” Lin Dong thought so.

He was not accustomed to breaking promises.

Especially in such vital national affairs!
