Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2493: Chapter 2492: Earthfire Region

Two Days Later, Lin Dong and the Dragon Group Members walked four thousand kilometers!

Traveling two thousand kilometers a day, this speed is quite fast. Many people drive cars, even if they stay on the highway, it is difficult to cover such a long distance!

In this desert, there are various harsh environments, and being able to achieve such speed is already their limit.

However, this entire desert stretches for thirty thousand kilometers.

The destination is still far away.

At this speed, it will take more than ten days to reach!

This evening, the sunset turned the sky of the Northern Desert into a brilliant red-purple.

Lin Dong led the elites of the Dragon Group on their journey through the vast sea of sand.

Traveling two thousand kilometers a day is not only a limit challenge to physical endurance but also a honing of willpower.

As the last ray of sunlight slowly sank into the horizon, they unexpectedly came to a strange area.

Ahead, a mirage-like city began to reveal itself in the twilight, seeming more real than any natural wonder.

This city has no physical walls, but the interplay of light and shadow outlines a prosperous silhouette. Each tower and street emits a captivating glow, inviting imagination.

Chen Pohu, the iron-blooded warrior of the Dragon Group, was the first to be shocked by this sight.

In his vision, he sees himself wearing a battle robe, standing atop a high platform, surrounded by gazes of admiration and thunderous applause, becoming a War God known by all in the war department, with glory and splendor weaving a magnificent tapestry.

Xiao Hongyu, the woman known for not giving way to men, saw herself clad in armor, holding a long spear, valiantly standing at the forefront of the battlefield, single-handedly resisting a thousand troops, becoming the strongest Female War God in the history of the war department.

Her eyes shone with determination and pride, as if everything was about to become reality.

Ye Linglong, Lin Dong’s close friend and teammate, envisioned a different scene.

In the picture, she and Lin Dong stood side by side on the vast frontier plains, surrounded by herds of cattle and sheep. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the two exchanged smiles, that peace and happiness was what she had long hidden in her heart.

Her face radiated warmth and satisfaction, her eyes glowing with unprecedented light.

Every member of the Dragon Group was deeply attracted to this illusory city, their gaze becoming increasingly blurred, and their steps involuntarily moved towards that bizarre world.

However, beneath this temptation lay a massive danger.

In reality, it was not a city at all, but a raging land of Earthfire. The temperature of that Earthfire was extremely hot, comparable to Alchemist Fire.

If someone with the strength of a Sect Master or Half-Step Earth Realm martial artist steps into it, even if they generate Strong Protective Qi, they would be burned to ash by this Earthfire.

Moreover, Ye Linglong and others, currently in an illusion, did not even attempt to use any protective defense moves.

If they were to step into that Earthfire, they would turn to ash in an instant!

But this Illusion Technique that could affect Ye Linglong and others, naturally could not affect Lin Dong.

Lin Dong, being a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist and a Mental Power Monk at the 34th Level Peak, would not be blinded by the illusion before him.

He shouted at Ye Linglong and the others, "Wake up!"

These two words seemed to have infinite magical power, expelling the illusion in which they resided.

His voice exploded like thunder in the team, pulling everyone back to reality from the dream.

When they came back to their senses and looked at each other, they were all drenched in cold sweat.

Lin Dong pointed ahead and said in a deep voice, "There looks beautiful, but it’s actually a land of Earthfire. Once you step in, you’ll turn to ash, with no chance of survival."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards the mirage-like city still emitting seductive light, feeling both fear and relief.

Lin Dong continued, "True strength does not come from imaginary glory and comfort but from facing reality, daring to challenge, and constantly improving oneself."

Everyone nodded in agreement, tightening their fists and keeping these words in their hearts.

At This Moment, the Sovereign Witch in the Dragon Ring Space and Lin Dong established mental power contact, she appeared extremely excited and said:

"Lin Dong, I sensed the breath of the Earth Spirit Beast inside. There is a Soul Stabilizing Bead in the Earth Spirit Beast’s body, which is one of the main ingredients for refining a Nirvana Pill. You should enter it quickly and help me kill the Earth Spirit Beast to obtain the Soul Stabilizing Bead."

Upon hearing this, Lin Dong’s mind recalled the ancient alchemist’s recipe for the Grade 7 Pill, Nirvana Pill.

The three main ingredients are the Soul Stabilizing Bead, the lotus root of the Thousand-Year ’Rebirth Lotus’, and five Demon Cores of Nine-Star Monster Kings of different Five Elements attributes. Of course, if they are Demon Emperor’s Demon Cores, it’s even better.

In this Extraterrestrial Battlefield, it shouldn’t be difficult to find five Demon Cores of Nine-Star Monster Kings or Demon Emperors, considering time investment.

Just like the Three-Star Chiyan Demon Lizard he previously killed, but its quality level was a bit too low. If its quality was higher, a Demon Core of Fire Attribute would have been obtained from its body.

However, as he delves deeper into the Northern Desert, Lin Dong believes that the probability of encountering Nine-Star Monster Kings or even Demon Emperors is still large.

In general, the most difficult materials to find for refining a Nirvana Pill are the lotus root of the Thousand-Year ’Rebirth Lotus’ and this ’Soul Stabilizing Bead’.

Now, encountering an Earth Spirit Beast with a ’Soul Stabilizing Bead’ inside, naturally excites the Sovereign Witch.

If the ’Soul Stabilizing Bead’ can be obtained, then the only remaining material will be the lotus root of the Thousand-Year ’Rebirth Lotus’. The five Demon Cores are not a concern for the Sovereign Witch.

Lin Dong was naturally delighted and immediately responded, "Okay, Senior Sovereign Witch, I will enter later and hunt the Earth Spirit Beast to retrieve the Soul Stabilizing Bead."

He glanced at the Earthfire Region ahead, clearly very dangerous.

Perhaps a Heavenly Realm martial artist like him could set foot in the area, but those Below Heavenly Realm definitely should not.

Dragon Group Members certainly couldn’t follow him in. That wouldn’t be training them; it would be seeking death.

A temporary separation was necessary.

Lin Dong Turned His Head, looked at the Dragon Group Members, and said to them, "I need to go to the Earthfire Region to find something. We need to temporarily separate."

Hearing this, Ye Linglong and others said, "War God Lin, just go ahead. We will wait for you here."

Lin Dong nodded, but he was still somewhat worried.

These Dragon Group Members, with strength as Sect Masters and Half-Step Earth Realm martial artists, naturally had no problem with self-preservation in the Outer World.

But this is the Extraterrestrial Battlefield, where their strength here has no self-preservation ability.

If they encounter a Monster King or desperate thugs like the Heavenly Realm martial artists from Blood Soul Hall they faced earlier, they will face life-threatening risks.

Lin Dong thought for a moment, took a deep breath, then turned and solemnly addressed the Dragon Group Members:

"Everyone, the area ahead is fraught with danger. I need to explore on my own. In the meantime, I will leave my clone to guard you, ensuring your safety. Please stay vigilant and don’t leave this place easily."

With that, Lin Dong made a seal gesture with his hands, his body surging with Demonic Qi, a dark and ethereal figure separated from his body.

It was his ’Heavenly Demon Charming Shadow Doppelganger’!

The doppelganger inherited part of Lin Dong’s power and wisdom, able to handle most emergencies. As long as a Heavenly Realm Martial Artist doesn’t appear, everyone’s safety can be assured.

Lin Dong placed the doppelganger among the group and detailed the contingency plans.

After ensuring everything was foolproof, he confidently stepped into the unknown region surrounded by blazing Earthfire.
