Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1426: Chapter 1423: Confronting Deadly Danger

Entering the secret realm, Xu Wendong was immediately overwhelmed by the sight before him.

Ancient trees soared into the clouds, their branches interspersed with mottled shadows, as if each leaf carried stories from a millennium.

The ground was covered with soft moss, with occasional strange spirit flowers tenaciously blooming in the gaps, exuding a faint fragrance that was refreshing.

However, beneath the beautiful scenery lay hidden dangers.

For Xu Wendong recognized some of the spirit flowers contained deadly toxins, capable of paralyzing a cultivator’s divine soul.

Even though he had the strength of a ninth-level loose immortal, he felt dizzy upon smelling them.

Xu Wendong cautiously traversed through the dense forest, which was silent as if even breathing loudly might break the tranquility and awaken unknown beings in the Ancient Immortal Secret Realm.

He remained vigilant at all times, extending his soul force over a hundred miles to probe his surroundings with a keen sense to prevent any mishap.

”The spiritual energy of this place is indeed dense, but... where is the spiritual spring?”

Xu Wendong was at a loss.

”I have to take a risk!”

Xu Wendong took a deep breath and soared into the sky, reaching ten thousand meters up.

Yet even so.

Before him appeared many umbrella-like trunks, reaching the clouds, exceptionally lush.

Upon reaching high altitudes, Xu Wendong’s vision widened considerably.

Still, he did not discover the location of the spiritual spring.

At this moment.

All he could do was look around to try his luck.

So.

He released his sub-body.

The main and sub-body simultaneously searching, greatly reducing the time.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

During these three days.

Xu Wendong encountered some rare spiritual medicine, but did not discover the whereabouts of the Dragon Yang Stone, or the spiritual spring.

That evening, the sky gradually painted with a reddish-orange twilight, draping the earth in a gentle golden gauze.

However, amidst this tranquil and harmonious scene, Xu Wendong’s face suddenly turned grave and pale.

His eyes flashed with urgency and unease, as if piercing through spatial barriers to gaze at some distant and perilous place.

An inexplicable force fluctuation suddenly resonated within him, a unique connection with his sub-body signaling an emergency.

Xu Wendong immediately realized that the sub-body was facing unprecedented danger.

It was trapped within an ancient and powerful formation, surrounded by unknown and perilous aura.

This formation was incredibly terrifying; even he did not know what kind of formation it was, let alone break it.

The sub-body’s situation was precarious.

He clenched his teeth, a strong urgency and sense of responsibility surging in him, vowing to quickly find a way to break the formation and rescue the sub-body from danger.

He closed his eyes and concentrated, attempting to perceive the sub-body’s exact position and formation details through their connection.

Yet the formation seemed like a sentient being, continuously changing its shape and power, making Xu Wendong’s perception as elusive as a cow vanishing into the sea.

The next moment.

The sense of crisis abruptly disappeared.

Xu Wendong’s expression was even paler than wax.

Previously, he could still sense the sub-body’s whereabouts, albeit unable to pinpoint the exact location, yet they were blood-linked.

But now.

He couldn’t perceive the sub-body’s existence.

”What’s going on?”

”Was my sub-body destroyed?”

Xu Wendong, full of terror, hid within the Penglai Fairy Island Minor World.

This time.

He felt fear.

Fear like never before!

The sub-body’s strength was akin to his, mastering the two paths of Yin and Yang, the Way of Thunder, the Wood Element Path, and the Path of Destruction.

Furthermore, it mastered the Path of Formation.

The physical body equally formidable.

Without exaggeration.

His strength ranked in the top ten across the cultivation realm.

But now, it was effortlessly obliterated.

How could he not be terrified?

”That formation was clearly controlled by someone, but who could it be to have the ability to slaughter my sub-body?” Xu Wendong’s hair stood on end.

At the same time, regret surged within him.

If he had known the risks present in the Ancient Immortal Secret Realm, he would have equipped the sub-body with a powerful magical treasure, whether a Taoist Scripture Fragment or the Golden Crow Furnace could enhance the sub-body’s combat strength!

At least it wouldn’t lose so miserably, without even a chance to fight back.

”I ultimately underestimated the Ancient Immortal Secret Realm!” Xu Wendong was full of sorrow; to him, the sub-body was not just a part but his brother!

Xu Wendong pondered to himself, deciding to stay prudent, then maneuvered the Pengcai Fairy Island Minor World to slowly traverse this vast space, seeking the legendary spiritual spring.

As the minor world gently swayed, he unexpectedly observed a vast ruin, covering a range of several hundred miles.

Above the ruins, a shocking pit caught his eye, like a merciless celestial meteor tearing through the land, with settling dust, heavy air, and a hint of blood—a familiar scent belonging to his sub-body.

This sudden discovery sank Xu Wendong’s heart to rock bottom, knowing it was the site of the sub-body’s misfortune.

However, amid despair and sorrow, fate seemed to open a window for him.

At the center of the pit, a spring quietly appeared, its water crystal-clear and astonishingly rich in spiritual energy, like the purest gift of nature.

The spiritual energy not only nourished every inch of the surrounding land but converged in the air into a splendid spiritual cloud, adding mystery and vitality to the ruin.

Watching this scene, Xu Wendong felt mixed emotions.

He was heartbroken for the sub-body’s ordeal yet hopeful for the sudden appearance of the spiritual spring.

A complicated bittersweet smile appeared on his face, containing resignation to fate and gratitude for the consequential discovery.

He never thought he would uncover the secrets of the spiritual spring under such coincidental circumstances.

However, this joy did not cloud his judgement but made him even more cautious.

He knew that within this vast unknown space lurked countless dangers, any slight negligence could lead to disaster.

Therefore, even after locating the spiritual spring, he didn’t rush but opted for the safest approach.

He carefully controlled the Pengcai Fairy Island Minor World to slowly descend above the spring.

Then with a thought, the minor world’s portal opened, like a window to another realm.

A powerful force surged from the spring’s depths, transforming into a brilliant stream akin to a burst Milky Way, pouring down from above.

Simultaneously, Xu Wendong summoned the Yanzhou Cauldron corroded by Yin energy, welcoming the spring’s arrival!

The Yin energy on the Yanzhou Cauldron also underwent significant changes with the spring’s appearance.
