Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2441: Chapter 2440: Breaking Free!

In the Time Prison, winds do not rise, flames do not burn, thunder hides, water flow stagnates, and the Power of the Elements loses its color here.

The only way to break this worldly cage is to return the way of others upon them.

To grasp the Time Law, and then use the Way of Time to break this ’Space-Time Prison’.

"Finally, I found it..." Lin Dong whispered, his voice soft yet seemingly able to penetrate the barriers of space and time, echoing in every corner of the prison.

He closed his eyes, concentrating, as an ancient and mysterious power surged within him, a preliminary enlightenment of the Time Law.

Of course, being able to grasp these worldly rules relied on the Infinite Force.

The Infinite encompasses everything; even the Way of Time is encompassed within the Infinite.

The Infinite stands above space and time!

Before time was born, there was the Infinite.

Before space took shape, there was the Infinite.

The Infinite presides over everything!

At the moment, having comprehended the Way of Time, Lin Dong’s mind moved, releasing an indescribable ripple from within him.

The flow of time around him seemed to slow, even distort at that moment.

He slowly raised his right hand, and in the palm, a "Sword of Time" formed from invisible forces began to emerge, the blade flowing with faint silver light, each glimmer containing profound understanding and control of the Time Law.

"In the name of time, I shall adjudicate!"

Lin Dong abruptly opened his eyes, a resolute gleam flashing within them.

His form flickered, like a traveler traversing time and space, instantly appearing before the two Gold-level Knights who had imprisoned him here.

These two Gold-level Knights, even in such dire straits, maintained their proud posture, yet a flicker of fear inevitably passed through their eyes.

"Impossible! You can actually wield the Power of Time!" Hai Yuan exclaimed in disbelief, but before the words finished, Lin Dong had swung the "Sword of Time" in his hand, the Sword Light like lightning, instantly tearing through the void, slicing toward the two.

"Now, it’s my turn to use the Sword of Time on you!"

A sword cut through, traversing their physical forms.

The Sword Qi was not dazzling or flashy, but the Force of Destruction contained the Way of Time.

This sword did not attack their physical bodies but directly stripped away their lifespan.

Under the edge of the "Sword of Time", where the Sword Light fell, their Life Energy rapidly drained like peeling silk from a cocoon, their faces aging swiftly until they turned to wither.

The power of time is so cruel yet fair, making all falsehood and arrogance unhidden.

Finally, as the last glimmer of the "Sword of Time" vanished, the two Gold-level Knights completely lost their Life Force, their bodies slowly collapsing, turning to dust.

And Lin Dong watched it all with a nearly indifferent gaze.

With that one sword, Lin Dong had also spent five years of lifespan!

However, five years of lifespan severed five hundred years of lifespan for Hai Yuan and Lie Yan respectively!

Equivalent to exchanging one for a hundred this way!

It’s evident that the ’Sword of Time’ now wielded by Lin Dong is much more powerful than that wielded by Lie Yan and Hai Yuan!

However, Lin Dong still decided to use the ’Sword of Time’ only in situations of absolute necessity.

Even losing five years is losing lifespan!

If other means can slay the opponent, why use lifespan to trade for others’ lifespan?

Having slain the two Gold-level Knights Hai Yuan and Lie Yan, Lin Dong didn’t employ the Devouring Technique to devour them.

There are two reasons.

One is that those slain by the Sword of Time are already exhausted of energy internally. Devouring them wouldn’t yield much energy.

The other is that Lin Dong has no time!

He must hurry to the Hidden Qin Clan, otherwise he’ll be too late.

"Whoosh whoosh~~~"

At that moment, from within Hai Yuan and Lie Yan, two Spirits and Souls flew out.

Although their lifespan was severed by Lin Dong, their bodies have reached exhaustion. But their Spirit and Soul did not perish.

After their Spirits and Souls flew out, Lin Dong flicked his finger, a glimmer flashing by, carefully capturing the two’s Spirits and Souls into the Drought-Maiden Horn.

But now he has no time to refine them!

So he can only temporarily place them within the Drought-Maiden Horn.

"Boom~~~"

With the deaths of the Gold-level Knights Lie Yan and Hai Yuan, the ’Space-Time Prison’ domain that had trapped Lin Dong finally completely dispersed.

Lin Dong was finally freed!

Freed, he didn’t hesitate at all, rushing at the fastest speed towards Dragon Country’s Capital City and the Qin Clan.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side, Dragon Country’s Capital City, Hidden Qin Clan.

At dawn, the golden sunshine through carved window panes fell mottled on Qin Yitian’s tightly furrowed brow.

In the room, the air seemed to solidify, every inch suffused with oppression and unwillingness.

Today is the wedding day of Qin Yitian and Xiao Huang, but for her, this is not a joyous celebration, but a shackle fate has imposed on her.

"Older cousin, time is running short, if you dawdle further, you’ll miss the auspicious hour." A crisp yet slightly harsh voice broke the silence.

Xiao Sisi, Xiao Huang’s cousin, also Qin Yitian’s younger female cousin, stood at the bedside, looking at Qin Yitian with a teasing expression.

Behind her stood several makeup artists and maids, holding various grooming supplies, waiting silently for orders.

Qin Yitian opened her eyes, her gaze flickering with defiance and helplessness.

She knew well, she has no way out, but that doesn’t mean she would easily yield.

"Xiao Sisi, why do you have to be so aggressive?" Her voice was light, but carried a hint of imperceptible determination.

"Oh? Am I aggressive?"

Xiao Sisi chuckled lightly, her eyes full of disdain, "Older cousin, do you know, this marriage is the family’s decision, something you cannot escape. That ’Master Lin’ in your heart, hmph, he’s just a coward. He knows what kind of storm awaits him if he shows up, so he chose to escape, just like your father did back then."

Upon mentioning her father, Qin Yitian’s eyes dimmed instantly.

That’s the eternal pain in her heart, a taboo she’s unwilling to touch.

Back then her mother, just like now, became a tool for the Qin family to gain profit through marriage.

However, her mother was unwilling to marry others, waiting earnestly at the wedding for her father to appear and take her away.

Yet the final outcome was that her father never showed.

He got scared, didn’t even dare to come!

Because of this, her mother committed suicide in bitterness!

At five, she watched as her mother fell into a pool of blood.

That scene became a nightmare within her heart.

Thinking of these, a pang of pain grasped her heart.

Is my destiny the same as my mother’s?

No, he isn’t like my father!

She quickly restrained her emotions, refusing to let her vulnerability be exposed to everyone.

"He is different from my father, you don’t understand." Qin Yitian whispered, a hint of imperceptible tremble in her voice.

"Is that so? So what?" Xiao Sisi sneered more, waving her hand to signal the makeup artists forward.

"Alright, don’t waste time. Older cousin, you’d better obediently put on the wedding dress and accept your fate. Remember, from this day forward, you are Xiao Huang’s wife, a part of our Xiao family. As for that Master Lin, let him be a mere phantom in your memory."

With Xiao Sisi’s command, the makeup artists swarmed forward, forcibly helping Qin Yitian up from the bed, beginning to groom her.

The reflection in the mirror gradually being covered by heavy makeup, the white wedding dress like a shackle, tightly binding her body and soul.

Qin Yitian closed her eyes, the only motivation supporting her to live now is that expectation in her heart.

"Lin Dong, you will come, right? You won’t retreat like my father did, right?" She murmured inwardly.
