The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 4220: Chapter 4220: Life Mark! (Third Update)

"Sword People," this is the name Ye Chen gave to these strange beings, because they are too cold and sharp throughout, filled with sharp blades, just like sabers endowed with intelligence, transformed into humans.

At this moment, a Sword Person has already rushed in front of Ye Chen, without hesitation, swinging their arm whose blades shine coldly, fiercely chopping towards Ye Chen.

"Courting death!"

Ye Chen’s gaze was cold, a sword pierced straight through, directly impaling the chest of the Sword Person.

But at this moment, Ye Chen noticed the Sword Person seemed utterly unharmed, hardly responding, still swinging their arm to chop at him.

"Shh!"

Not expecting the Sword People to ignore critical hits, Ye Chen was momentarily taken aback, directly getting slashed on the shoulder by the Sword Person.

A startling wound appeared, Ye Chen gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, while the Slaughter Sword’s cold light blossomed, directly aiming for the Sword Person’s head.

This time, the Sword Person raised an arm to block, the arm’s blade faced the Slaughter Sword, yet got directly severed, followed by their square head tumbling to the ground.

"Thud."

This time, the Sword Person’s body smashed onto the earth, unlike when their chest was pierced, they fell lifelessly.

Watching this scene, Ye Chen’s eyes flashed, realizing these Sword People had no vital points other than their head.

After the Sword Person fell to the ground, Ye Chen noticed their body gradually dissipated, transforming into a broken saber.

"This is..."

Ye Chen was a bit surprised, then realized the dropped head had turned into a blade tip, indicating the Sword Person was originally just a saber.

"Indeed, they are sabers transformed!"

Ye Chen felt shaken inside, gazing at this mountain filled with Sword People, pondering how many sabers had gained intelligence to amass such vast numbers.

Recognizing the Sword People were transformed sabers, Ye Chen abruptly realized this mountain peak held so many sabers, could it be Sword Mountain?

"Climbing Sword Mountain, descending into the Sea of Fire."

Ye Chen felt peculiar, knowing the first Life Mark challenge was Sword Mountain; the second might well be the Sea of Fire. What would be the third?

With speculation in mind, Ye Chen saw wave after wave of Sword People rushing at him, having no time to ponder, immediately raising his sword to meet them.

"Bang bang bang!"

The Slaughter Sword clashed with Sword People, his blade meeting their edges, lightning flashed around.

Knowing the vital point was the head, Ye Chen aimed each strike there, and the unstoppable Slaughter Sword overcame their defenses, cutting down one after another.

All the Sword People fell to Ye Chen’s swift strikes, yet they were too numerous, covering the land. Unable to fend them off continuously, each slain one replaced, and soon Ye Chen bore numerous wounds.

Bloody and battling amidst Sword People, Ye Chen’s life surged forth, healing his injuries rapidly.

Yet, no matter how fast he healed, continuous fighting drained him, risking downfall by the unending Sword People.

Ye Chen understood this, gazing towards the mountain’s apex, where a Life Mark emanating powerful vitality hovered in mid-air, casting waves of life across the world.

"Only by reaching the peak can I escape these troublesome foes."

Knowing his goal, Ye Chen didn’t plan endless battling, he needed only to acquire the Life Mark to pass Sword Mountain’s trial.

While clashing with countless Sword People, he pressed on toward the summit.

With more wounds covering him, Ye Chen’s power wielding the Slaughter Sword weakened, realizing his state was worsening, feeling anxious.

He had fought to reach the mountainside, just halfway to the summit, yet sensing the Sword People noticed his aim, attacking with more ferocity, fearless in giving chase, making progress difficult.

"You’ve driven me to this!"

Ye Chen shouted in anger, true qi surged within, tattoo-like runes appeared across his body.

These lines shone brightly at that moment, emitting blinding Gold rays; Ye Chen’s strength surged, Slaughter Sword unleashed chilling beams annihilating Sword People mercilessly.

"Die, all of you!"

Ye Chen roared, rushing towards the peak violently, his Slaughter Sword shuddered endlessly, sword light swept forth, resembling fierce dragons, tearing through Sword People.

With such violent assault, his pace quickened noticeably, nearing the summit.

But this burst of effort exhausted Ye Chen greatly, his breathing grew heavier.

Just then, among Sword People, an anomaly occurred, some revealed true forms, swords floating up gathering together.

In a flash, countless sabers rose forming a saber torrent, rushing towards Ye Chen.

The saber torrent was chilling, shattering everything in its path, even the Void rumbled, horrifying edge disturbing the All Heavens, with ceaseless Sword People joining.

Facing this intense saber torrent, Ye Chen’s pupils shrank, surprised at the Sword People’s capabilities, worrying.

"Sky-splitting Sea-breaking Sword!"

Ye Chen suddenly yelled, Slaughter Sword thrust forth, Law in heaven flowed, adhering to his sword.

At that moment, the sky split into two, a terrible cold light pouring out, illuminating the Spiritual Tablet World thoroughly.

"Shh!"

The chilling light crashed into the saber torrent, breaking sounds echoed, the cracking sent shivers through one’s scalp, almost rupturing eardrums.

Amidst crashing impacts, the saber torrent drained rapidly, but Sword People continue merging relentlessly.

Seeing this, Ye Chen’s expression grew more serious, moving wildly toward the peak, aiming to seize the Life Mark as chilling light stalled the saber torrent.

However, though Ye Chen’s plan was solid, the saber torrent was too savage, the chilling delay without follow-up soon overwhelmed.

Immediately, the terrifying saber torrent shattered everything again, crashing back towards Ye Chen.

Ye Chen was still some distance from the peak.

"Annoying indeed!"

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, the Sword Mountain challenge was extremely trying, unable to wield other powers, relying solely on physical strength, his anger boiled.

"Such trivial Sword Mountain cannot halt my steps!"

Ye Chen roared, radiant Gold rune power surged, his strength increased once more.

This burst, however, drained his own blood essence and energy, his body turned gaunt, blood and flesh dried up completely.
