The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2646: Chapter 2620: Ji Lin’s Choice (Five Updates)

...

At the same time, numerous forces within the Divine Kingdom also received the news of the Cold Poison Town’s Poison Tablet emerging and sent experts to investigate.

In Cold Poison Town, experts gathered.

Ye Chen sat cross-legged in the Divine Extreme Sect. As the six-month deadline drew nearer, he realized that only by breaking through to the Great Void Peak would he have the qualification to fight.

He had to engage in endless cultivation.

The only thing puzzling him was how long he had been in the Great Void Realm!

Why had the Tribulation lightning still not descended?

If it didn’t arrive soon, he might even step into the Disaster Slaying realm.

Could it be... that he would become the first cultivator to break through without Tribulation lightning?

Just then, he suddenly felt his bloodline surging.

It was as though something in the unseen world was calling to him. This feeling was extraordinarily mystical; he’d experienced it a few times before, and each time it had led to the emergence of a spiritual artifact.

Could this time be the same...?

At that moment, the Ancient Medical God in the Samsara Graveyard suddenly let out a soft exclamation.

”Elder Cang, you feel something unusual too?”

”Unusual! Highly unusual! If my senses are correct, one of the tablets within the Reincarnation Tablet should be appearing.”

”This density of poisonous gas... it’s likely the Poison Tablet.”

”The Poison Tablet? Really?” Ye Chen grew excited.

Elder Yong had mentioned that recently a Reincarnation Tablet might emerge!

It had truly come to pass!

”Almost certainly. This Poison Tablet has immense utility and will greatly benefit cultivation in the future.”

Hearing the Ancient Medical God’s words, Ye Chen wasted no time and immediately set off for Cold Poison Town.

The Poison Tablet seemed like a calling from the unseen world.

...

In the westernmost region of the Divine Kingdom, Du Ye Hall.

Du Ye Hall was a top-tier force of the Evil Dao, thriving on slaughter and following the path of sin.

”Li Fan Yi, take ten Asura Kings and a hundred Asura Commanders, and immediately head to Cold Poison City to seize the Poison Tablet!”

The Hall Master of Du Ye Hall issued orders from a secret cultivation chamber.

Fifteen minutes later, more than a hundred peerless experts, emanating death and Nirvana-like auras, took flight under the leadership of a single figure.

Asura experts, beings invincible at the Disaster Slaying Realm. The Asura Commanders likewise were all at least mid-stage Great Void Realm cultivators.

Li Fan Yi, Du Ye Hall’s Vice Sect Master, was a peak Disaster Slaying realm powerhouse!

...

In the primitive mountain range of the southern Divine Kingdom, lay a dominant force of several thousand years—the Wan Du Sect.

Wan Du Sect ranked as a third-tier power, with few members possessing Disaster Slaying level cultivation.

”Relay the command: everyone from the sect above the Sealed Gate realm must gather at the Sect Master Peak!”

Faced with the allure of the Poison Tablet from the Reincarnation Tablet, Wan Du Sect was going all in, even gambling their entire sect, sparing no cost!

The sect’s ancient records stated that only by obtaining the Poison Tablet could the Way of Wan Du reach perfection.

Hence, the Poison Tablet held greater importance than life or death for Wan Du Sect!

Before long, several treasure ships ascended from the Sect Master Peak and sped toward Cold Poison City.

...

For the moment, Cold Poison City became the center of attention, as countless forces and powerful martial artists within the Divine Kingdom converged there.

The emergence of the Reincarnation Tablet heralded an impending storm!

A brutal and bloody conflict was about to unfold!

The Cang Gu Sect remained calm, as they lacked the strength to involve themselves in such a competition.

However, upon the Poison Tablet’s emergence, a certain individual from within the Cang Gu Sect sensed it immediately.

This individual was an acquaintance of Ye Chen—Ji Lin.

She possessed a unique constitution, the Innate Poison Body, and her connection to the Poison Tablet was as strong as Ye Chen’s!

Ji Lin promptly sought out Xuanlingzi.

”Disciple, do you sense it?”

”It feels as though something in the unseen world is calling to me. I don’t know what it is... Master, did you notice anything?”

The usually playful young woman was unusually serious this time.

Xuanlingzi had been training Ji Lin for a long time and held deep satisfaction for this young lass.

Seeing her inquiry now, he responded honestly.

”The Poison Tablet from the Reincarnation Tablet has emerged. I didn’t expect this tablet to appear—it’s truly beyond my expectations...”

”Lass, you are of the Innate Poison Body. What conventional people cannot endure, for you, becomes supreme high-grade nourishment.”

”If toxins were to be ranked, this Poison Tablet would undoubtedly be the highest grade among them. It is the most beneficial artifact for your cultivation—a treasure that could accelerate your progress at lightning speed.”

”Really?”

Upon hearing this, Ji Lin grew excited.

”I can roughly sense the general direction of the Poison Tablet. Master, let’s seize it now!”

”That would be the best course of action!”

”Since that’s the case, I’ll accompany you. Ji Lin, I hope you can grasp this rare opportunity!”

After discussing their plan, the pair quickly decided to set out in pursuit of this era-defining opportunity.

By chance, Cang Gu Sect was located only ten thousand miles away from Cold Poison City—a mere two-hour journey. Soon, Xuanlingzi and Ji Lin arrived.

Meanwhile, top-tier forces like Heavenly Dao Palace and Du Ye Hall, dead-set on acquiring the Poison Tablet, were still on their way.

Outside Cold Poison City, Xuanlingzi frowned deeply, his face solemn.

”Ji Lin, don’t rush in! I have a bad feeling about this. Though the opportunity is great... I fear it carries grave danger!”

Xuanlingzi held Ji Lin back, his sharp gaze scanning the surroundings, weighed down with unease.

At this moment, Cold Poison City lay shrouded in endless poisonous gas, resembling an inescapable trap—a sight that deterred all who came near.

The ground was littered with remains. On the bones still clung traces of blood essence, indicating these people had died only minutes earlier.

Just moments ago, Xuanlingzi had watched as a mid-stage Great Void Realm expert forced their way into the poisonous gas, only to dissolve into a pool of pus within seconds, their divine soul wiped out, leaving only skeletal fragments!

Ji Lin, while desperately yearning for the ”era-defining opportunity” within Cold Poison City, had the sense to heed Xuanlingzi’s guidance.

The pair stayed outside the city for half a day, carefully observing.

During this time, Xuanlingzi concluded: anyone below mid-stage Great Void Realm who entered Cold Poison City would not survive.

Even with protective treasures, their fate was nearly sealed—nine deaths and one survival!

For those above late-stage Great Void Realm, while they could breach the poisonous gas barrier, their powers would be greatly reduced, their strength sharply declining.

As time passed, the number of martial artists arriving at Cold Poison City multiplied, their ranks swelling with increasingly powerful figures, intensifying Xuanlingzi’s sense of foreboding.

Gazing at Ji Lin, who sat silently nearby, Xuanlingzi found himself consumed by doubt.

This disciple, outwardly serene, was actually increasingly restless, her yearning for the ”era-defining opportunity” within Cold Poison City barely contained.

”Ji Lin, though opportunities are rare, some cannot be forced... This place is far more perilous than I initially imagined. Are you truly determined to enter?”

Xuanlingzi asked regardless.

From his perspective, given Ji Lin’s level of cultivation, she wouldn’t be able to breakthrough the outer poisonous gas barrier, let alone claim the opportunity.
