The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 3216: Chapter 3993: What Should Be Done (Third Update)

The two of them walked side by side, leaving the Heavenly Dao Palace. On the road, Xuanfei looked at the flying swords surrounding Xuanyuan Moxie and curiously asked:

"Xuanyuan Palace Master, your flying swords seem to be forged from your blood essence and energy using the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique. I wonder where you obtained this cultivation method?"

Xuanyuan Moxie replied, "Oh, it was a stroke of luck. A subordinate of mine named Tian Lang acquired the original jade scroll of the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique from the Outer Realm and brought it back to present to me."

"This was presented by your subordinate? Impossible, impossible."

Xuanfei, full of doubt, said, "The Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique is clearly a divine power of our Empress Heavenly Palace. However, because of its intense killing aura, Her Majesty the Empress did not cultivate it, and some time ago, she bestowed it upon the Hall Master of the Netherworld Hall, Mo Xue Ming. How did it end up in your hands? I thought you and the Netherworld Hall had formed an alliance, and Lord Mo gifted it to you."

The Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique is ranked fourth among the Thirty-Three Heavens Hongmeng Techniques, with immense destructive power.

Initially, Xuan Jiyue and Mo Xue Ming traded with each other, and she granted him such a powerful divine power, also intending to support him, hoping to use the Netherworld Hall to weaken the imposing presence of the Heavenly Dao Palace.

But unexpectedly, the original jade scroll of the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique fell into Xuanyuan Moxie’s hands, which was simply unbelievable.

"This... this is the Empress Supreme’s divine power? And it was bestowed to Mo Xue Ming?"

Xuanyuan Moxie took out the jade scroll, looking astonished, feeling something off vaguely.

"Yes, this is indeed the original jade scroll. How did it end up in your hands?"

Xuanfei took the jade scroll and examined it carefully. It was indeed the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique, but the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique was clearly given to Mo Xue Ming by Xuan Jiyue. How could it have fallen into Xuanyuan Moxie’s hands?

Xuanfei couldn’t understand, after all, the Netherworld Hall and the Heavenly Dao Palace were like water and fire, and Mo Xue Ming had no reason to give gifts.

"This... this is rather peculiar."

Xuanyuan Moxie furrowed his brows. Since the original jade scroll of the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique was with Mo Xue Ming, how did Tian Lang get it?

He couldn’t figure it out.

"Moreover, Xuanyuan Palace Master, this original jade scroll seems to have been tampered with."

Xuanfei pinched the jade scroll and, with a slight scan of the divine soul, immediately noticed something unusual.

"Tampered with?"

A chill surged in Xuanyuan Moxie’s heart.

"Yes, the jade scroll is real, but the cultivation formulas inside it have been manipulated and are entirely disordered. If someone cultivates it, they risk entering a demonized state. Even my Empress and the one from the Emperor Abyss Palace wouldn’t dare reverse train the Hongmeng. This could lead to a major disaster."

Xuanfei looked at Xuanyuan Moxie, her gaze carrying a hint of pity and a sense of schadenfreude.

"What!"

Xuanyuan Moxie took a deep breath, his body stiffening as he murmured, "This... this cultivation method is reversed? No wonder I’ve always felt a blockage in my meridians when cultivating it. I thought this sword move was too overpowering for me to grasp its crucial points. Turns out, turns out..."

Thunder shocks exploded in Xuanyuan Moxie’s mind. His whole body trembled intensely, and almost instantly, he guessed the reason behind it all.

Tian Lang had betrayed him!

Tian Lang had defected to Mo Xue Ming, bringing back a distorted Hongmeng Ancient Technique, attempting to end his life!

"Xuanyuan Palace Master, fortunately, I discovered it in time. Your days of cultivation have been few, and the adverse effects of reverse training Hongmeng haven’t manifested yet. As long as you stop in time, you won’t be in danger of a deviation."

Xuanfei returned the jade scroll to Xuanyuan Moxie. She roughly guessed the underlying karma, but she didn’t want to get involved in the grievances between the Heavenly Dao Palace and Mo Xue Ming.

"Thank you, Lord Xuanfei, for the guidance."

Xuanyuan Moxie took back the jade scroll, cold sweat dripping down his back, thinking, "I didn’t expect Tian Lang to betray me. Such a traitor must be torn to pieces to quell my anger!"

After a pause, Xuanyuan Moxie considered asking Xuanfei to help restore the correct order of the Heaven Punishment Divine Sword Technique, but on second thought, he didn’t speak.

After all, having already cultivated the Star Emperor’s Vast Energy and mastering a hundred thousand flying swords, perhaps even the one from the Upper Realm would have sleepless nights.

Moreover, if Xuanfei secretly tampered as well, wouldn’t he be in trouble?

Xuanyuan Moxie reluctantly put away the jade scroll, feeling regret that such an overpowering Hongmeng Ancient Technique could no longer be trained in the future.

The two of them reached the top of the Heavenly Dao Palace, where a wisp of Destiny Purple Qi had not yet dissipated and was still incredibly dense, rising to the sky like smoke.

"Xuanyuan Palace Master, please."

Xuanfei made an invitational gesture, as this Destiny Purple Qi spanned between heaven and earth, besides lifting the restrictions on Xuanyuan Moxie, it also temporarily broke through the Boundary Barrier, allowing her to bring people to the heavens.

"Please."

Xuanyuan Moxie steadied himself, following Xuanfei, embarking together towards the heavens.

Meanwhile, the affairs of the Heavenly Dao Palace were temporarily dominated by the Yan Tian Dragon God.

In line with Xuanyuan Moxie’s will, the Tianji Daoist was completely detained, and the Heavenly Dao Palace widely sent out heroic invitations, inviting everyone around the world to the Mountain Gate of the Heavenly Dao Palace forty-nine days later to witness the great undertaking of Slaying Master to Prove Dao.

Within the Seven Divine Countries, any sect with some standing received the invitations from the Heavenly Dao Palace.

"The Heavenly Dao Palace is holding a Master Slaying Conference?"

"Xuanyuan Moxie wants to Slay Master to Prove Dao?"

"This lunatic, such ruthless means!"

For a time, the whole world was in shock, with everyone gaping and tongue-tied, not expecting Xuanyuan Moxie to have such audacity to intend to slay the Tianji Daoist before the Seven Divine Countries and prove the Dao against heaven.

...

Meanwhile, in the First Divine Country, Reincarnation Valley.

Qu Xueyong paced back and forth, his gaze increasingly uneasy as he watched the rune pillar.

He vaguely sensed that something had happened to Ji Siqing.

But he couldn’t determine the specifics.

Even the jade pendant linking the fate of the old ancestor in his hand developed a small crack.

He was frightened.

He was uneasy.

Numerous times he attempted to enter the Void Gate, only to be blasted out by a formidable force.

All he could do was wait.

His murky and tense eyes focused intensely on the rune pillar, muttering to himself, "Old ancestor, please don’t let anything happen."

"I am willing to trade the rest of my lifespan for your safe return."

Within the Void Gate, a land of yellow sand and a bloody atmosphere spread.

A blood moon hung high in the sky, as if the entire world was devoured by darkness.

In the deepest part, amidst a river.

A young girl with her eyes closed transported spiritual energy from her body into another young woman’s body.

Even though the young girl was soaked and pale, it had no effect.

These two were Ji Lin and Ji Siqing.

Ji Lin exhaled a dense breath, looking at the unconscious Ji Siqing, then glanced in a direction with heavy eyes.

She was surrounded by a special Reincarnation Tablet.

It was indeed the Poison Stele.

"I must get sister out quickly. If this continues, sister will indeed have no hope."

"Although my level of cultivation has broken through, saving sister is impossible."

"What should I do?"
