Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2853: Chapter 2852: Restraint

Lin Dong’s heart was ablaze with rage, yet he knew that the Water Origin was deliberately provoking him, trying to exhaust his physical and mental strength.

However, at this moment, a thought suddenly flashed through Lin Dong’s mind, like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating his thoughts: ”Martial Power attacks don’t work, so what about Spiritual Power attacks?”

This idea, once conceived, spread rapidly through Lin Dong’s heart like a wildfire.

He realized that perhaps it was time to try the path few have walked — to counter this seemingly invincible Water Origin with Spiritual Power.

In the following instant, Lin Dong took a deep breath, his eyes shining with unprecedented determination and radiance.

He knew well that facing this ancient and powerful Water Origin, conventional physical and elemental attacks would be of little use; only by relying on his rarely known mental power might he find a chance for survival in this desperate situation.

Lin Dong closed his eyes and focused his mind, the aura around him subtly changing with the fluctuations of his will, enveloping the air in an indescribable sense of suppression.

His spiritual world opened slowly like the vast universe, with pure and powerful mental power surging from within, gathering in the palm of his hand.

Guided by his will, this mental power gradually condensed, ultimately forming a Sword of Spiritual Power, flickering with a deep blue light, its tip trembling slightly, as if containing the terrifying power to tear space apart.

”Go!” Lin Dong shouted lowly, and the Sword of Spiritual Power slashed through the sky like lightning, carrying the sound of breaking the air, pointing directly at the seemingly invisible yet indestructible ”Origin Water Shield.”

This strike concentrated his entire focus and strength, and at the moment the sword tip touched the shield surface, a deafening boom erupted.

”Boom!”

The surface of the Origin Water Escape rippled with fine waves, as if a stone had been thrown into a tranquil lake, breaking the original tranquility.

This scene showed that Lin Dong’s spiritual attack was indeed more effective than any attempt before, at least it made the Water Origin feel threatened.

The expression of the Water Origin, or rather its intangible will, changed slightly at this moment, mixing surprise and caution.

It murmured to itself, its voice echoing in this strange space constructed by water elements:

”You’re actually a mental power cultivator! Moreover, your Spirit Power Level isn’t low. That’s truly rare.”

Lin Dong keenly captured the apprehension in the Water Origin’s tone, and couldn’t help but feel a little delighted.

Years of cultivation experience told him that any opponent’s fear is the best opportunity for counterattack.

He deduced that the Water Origin had some special reservations against mental power cultivators, which might be the key to reversing the situation.

Thus, without hesitation, Lin Dong again mobilized his spiritual power, this time holding nothing back, condensing his entire spiritual strength to the utmost, almost draining his spiritual world.

With his will surging again, a Sword of Spiritual Power bigger and more dazzling than before slowly took shape in the air, its blade glowing as if illuminating all darkness, trembling the air where its tip pointed.

”Boom!!” Accompanied by Lin Dong’s all-out strike, this giant sword condensed from all his spiritual strength advanced towards the Water Origin’s shield with an unstoppable momentum.

The clash between sword and shield triggered even more violent energy fluctuations, as if shaking the entire space at that moment.

Under immense pressure, the Origin Shield trembled violently, emitting an earsplitting roar, seemingly about to collapse at any time.

However, when everything calmed down, despite the severe tremor, the Origin Water Shield still stood firm, not completely broken.

”Haha...”

The Water Origin’s laughter echoed in the space, carrying a touch of mockery and triumph.

”It’s a pity, your mental power is strong, yet only around the fortieth level. The fortieth level is rare but still not enough to break my Origin Water Shield refined from water essence. If you could reach the forty-fifth rank, there might be a sliver of hope. But now, it still falls short.”

The words of the Water Origin doused the fire of hope that had just ignited within Lin Dong.

But he didn’t feel discouraged; instead, he captured new information from these words: that indeed, the Water Origin feared spiritual attacks.

It’s just that his current spiritual attack had not reached the requisite power to break its Origin Water Escape.

”You’ve attacked me long enough; you should be tired now. Next, it’s my turn!”

The Water Origin did not continue to let Lin Dong attack endlessly.

Although Lin Dong’s spiritual attack wasn’t sufficient to completely break its ’Origin Water Escape,’ it certainly posed a threat.

It didn’t want Lin Dong to keep trying and was ready to launch a counteroffensive, to defeat Lin Dong quickly and then devour him.

”You are a mental power cultivator; if I devour you, my growth will be even greater.”

After the Water Origin’s greedy words fell, the entire space seemed to freeze for a moment, with the tense atmosphere reaching its peak.

Lin Dong’s gaze remained firm, though a hint of caution arose in his heart.

He understood that the real battle was just beginning.

The Water Origin clearly did not intend to give him any more respite and decided to start counterattacking to end this long tug-of-war.

With a light wave from the Water Origin, the surrounding water elements seemed to respond to some mysterious call, quickly converging to form an incredibly sharp, crystal-clear Water Sword.

The sword was purely condensed from Origin power, with a faint blue glow flowing over it, exuding an intimidating chill, as if able to freeze everything.

Facing this sudden attack, Lin Dong did not choose to evade.

He knew that mere evasion was not the solution, and besides, he wanted to see if his strongest defense could withstand this sword from the Water Origin!

Thus, he quickly mobilized the power of his Dragon Blood Holy Body, enveloping himself in a layer of golden light.

He instantly transformed the Dragon Blood Holy Body’s Reverse Scale and Limitless Transformation!

However, when that sword condensed from Origin power cut through the sky and collided with Lin Dong’s Dragon Blood Holy Body, it exploded with a deafening boom.

”Boom!”

The immense shock slightly shook Lin Dong’s form, leaving a faint sword mark on the golden glow, evidence of the power left by the Origin Water Sword.

The Water Origin saw this and a cold smile curved on its lips:

”Hehe, your Dragon Blood Holy Body is strong, but previously, you used too much Flame Power to temper it. Don’t you know that water restrains flames? In front of me, your defense, after all, still has flaws.”

Hearing this, Lin Dong’s brows furrowed, yet he pondered inwardly. He had indeed primarily used Flame Power to temper his body and increase his strength.

”It’s a pity, besides tempering your body with flames, you also used water, thunder, and wind elements. Otherwise, this sword wouldn’t just leave a sword mark on you but might slaughter you directly.”

The Water Origin’s words echoed again, carrying a touch of regret and recognition of Lin Dong’s potential.

And hearing these words, Lin Dong suddenly gained some insight.

He seemed to have grasped a crucial turning point.

”Restraint, restraint...” he murmured, as if he had already thought of a way to break this ’Origin Water Escape.’
