Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2673: Chapter 2672: Reward!

Lin Dong’s sword, like lightning cutting through the sky, not only shattered the sturdy defense of the Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue but also deeply shocked everyone present.

The other five trialists, their eyes full of disbelief and shock, had never seen such a swift and powerful sword move, nor expected Lin Dong to exceed levels so effortlessly.

While everyone was still immersed in Lin Dong’s astonishing sword, an unusual light suddenly emanated from Lin Dong, attracting everyone’s attention.

In the light, a small and delicate Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue slowly emerged, starkly different from the colossal figure just now, this statue was only half a foot high, yet it still exuded the unique steadiness and weightiness of the earth element.

"Is this... a reward?" Yun Ruoxian exclaimed, breaking the silence at the scene.

Lin Dong smiled faintly, gently raising the small statue in his hand, his eyes flickering with satisfaction and surprise.

He understood that this was not merely a reward but also a powerful assistance.

With his mind’s movement, information on how to harness this Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue poured into his mind, detailing the methods of controlling this statue puppet.

"Indeed, this is my reward." Lin Dong glanced around, his eyes carrying a hint of delight and excitement, "Moreover, it is not an ordinary item but a statue puppet equivalent to a First Heaven Guardian Beast."

As soon as these words were said, a sound of drawing breath in surprise suddenly rose around.

A statue puppet equivalent to a First Heaven, this is undoubtedly an extremely precious treasure, a long-awaited help for any martial artist.

It can not only provide powerful support in battles but also become a lifesaving trump card at critical moments.

"So, this is the reward of the second Earth Dragon Treasure Vault? The reward is so generous! No wonder it requires such a trial." Aidan’s tone carried both envy and a trace of undetectable jealousy.

"Yes, such rewards are simply enviable." Crescent Wolf Emperor echoed, his eyes flickering with complex emotions as he looked at the Guardian Beast Statue before him, full of battle intention.

If only he could defeat it, he too could receive such a reward.

Thinking of this, his battle intention grew even stronger, and he proceeded towards the Guardian Beast Statue in front.

Meanwhile, Lin Dong naturally sensed the change in emotions around him, but he merely smiled serenely without much explanation.

At the moment Lin Dong was holding that small yet strong Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue puppet, with a mixture of excitement and confusion in his heart.

He initially thought that after obtaining the reward, he would be instantly transported out of this trial space, but the scene before him shattered his expectations.

Just as he pondered secretly, a heavier and grander aura suddenly enveloped the entire space, inspiring awe involuntarily.

"What is this..." Lin Dong’s gaze suddenly sharpened, only to see a more colossal and majestic Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue slowly emerge in the originally empty spot.

This statue was entirely different from the previous one, surrounded by a dense earth-yellow light, and each stone-like skin seemed to contain the weight of mountains and the power of the earth.

Lin Dong could clearly sense that the statue’s strength had already far surpassed the realm of the previous Second Heaven, its pressure comparable to Third-Layer Heavenly Boundary Martial Artists among human warriors.

"Could it be..." A bold conjecture surged in Lin Dong’s heart, he looked up at the majestic statue, a hint of anticipation flickered in his eyes, "If I succeed in the challenge, can I continue to challenge?"

"And if I succeed in the continued challenge, will there be another reward?"

This thought, once born, spread like wildfire, uncontrollable.

Lin Dong knew that what lay ahead was a much more arduous battle, but it also indicated more generous rewards and more rapid growth.

He took a deep breath, casting aside his thoughts, fully immersing himself in the challenge to come.

Meanwhile, Yun Ruoxian, Tian Kong, Tang Yun, Crescent Wolf Emperor, and Aidan were also drawn to this sudden change.

They exchanged glances, quickly understanding Lin Dong’s situation.

For a moment, their hearts were filled with mixed emotions, admiring Lin Dong’s strength, but at this moment, it more strongly stimulated their fighting spirit.

"Him, Lin Dong... actually continuing the challenge? Does he want to fight across two levels?" Yun Ruoxian murmured softly, her eyes flaring with a complex light: "Then I must challenge successfully too, at least across one level!"

Thinking of this, her battle intention intensified as she faced her opponent, using even stronger moves.

"A Guardian Beast Statue of the Third Heaven, the difficulty is not ordinary. To fight across two levels!" Tian Kong frowned tightly, as he now faced a Guardian Beast Statue of the Third Heaven, its strength was too formidable.

It may not release the Law of Heaven and Earth like Third-Layer Heavenly Boundary Martial Artists, but its body’s level of defense was no weaker than a Three-star Demon Emperor. He simply couldn’t break through its defense.

"It’s too difficult, heavenly realm martial artists trying to challenge across levels, the difficulty is too great. Especially Second Heavenly Realm Martial Artists, challenging the strength of the Third Heaven." Tian Kong thought so while laboriously resisting the statue’s attack.

The others, Aidan and them, thought the same!

"I can’t lose, I must succeed."

"This Lin Dong succeeded across levels so quickly. How can I fall so far behind him?"

"..."

Due to Lin Dong’s recent provocation, five figures each engaged in an even fiercer confrontation with an Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue of one level higher cultivation than theirs.

Aidan’s Light Power and the Earth Spirit’s power collided, erupting in bursts of booming.

Tian Kong attempted to pierce the statue’s defense with tremendous thunder force.

Yun Ruoxian floated gracefully, her sword light shadowing but unable to touch the statue’s core.

Tang Yun utilized the Poison Path, circling the statue, searching for a flaw. She was at the greatest disadvantage, the Poison Path was strong against human warriors or demon beasts, but against this Guardian Beast Statue, a puppet-like dead object, it was hardly useful.

Crescent Wolf Emperor switched into wolf shadow, engaging in a contest of speed and power with the statue.

However, amid these seemingly balanced battles, a more astonishing scenario was quietly unfolding in the distance.

At the moment, Lin Dong was already engaged in a battle with that second Guardian Beast Statue, whose strength was comparable to Third-Layer Heavenly Boundary Martial Artists.

Moreover, he actually had the upper hand, steadily suppressing the opponent.

"It’s possible, the time it takes him to slaughter the second Earth Spirit Guardian Beast Statue is quicker than us. Even after he finishes the second battle, we might not have completed the first battle. We might even fail the first!"

This was a thought that everyone couldn’t help simultaneously conjuring in their minds.

Upon this reflection, the other five individuals wore expressions of helplessness and bitterness.

Sigh, the gap between proud Sons of Heaven, why is it so vast?
