The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 1429: Making Preparations Chapter 1429: Making Preparations Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation This artifact was called the Tianzhai Palace, and although it was a Dao Integration-grade artifact, it could expand and shrink freely, and could also carry living people, which was rare.  Something like this could only be refined by combining temporal and spatial stones, and its value was considered equivalent to a ninth-grade Dao Integration-grade artifact. The Lingwu Continent was vast, and many of the high-tier and top-tier sects and families were separated by millions of miles, if not more. In times of crisis, or during wars, the elders and guardians could tear open space to travel great distances, but most disciples could not. Therefore, these types of artifacts that could store living people were used to transport them. In wars, this also helped to hide the number of experts on each side until an attack commenced, and also allowed stronger experts to break into the defensive formations of the sect or family they were attacking, before unleashing the experts within the artifact. As such, one could imagine how valuable and useful this type of artifact was. Despite this, Venerable Immortal Ling Yun was using it to nurture Ji Siqing and Xia Ruoxue, and allowed them to receive the artifact spirit’s guidance and consume the treasures she had accumulated inside. This spoke volumes about how much she valued them. “A disciple who has comprehended a first-grade Dao, and a disciple who might also comprehend a first-grade Dao!” Venerable Immortal Qing Shui sighed. “Such talented disciples, Ling Yun is really lucky!” Even she did not have a palace-type artifact. Only Venerable Immortal Ling Yun and Venerable Immortal Fire Phoenix did. As for the palace master, she had a spacetime-grade palace-type artifact, which had unique abilities, and was much better than the Tianzhai Palace! … At the same time, in a huge city near the foot of the Beigong Family’s mountain, Ye Chen sat cross-legged to recuperate. He used the pills he had obtained from the ruins of the Golden Buddha Sect to continuously refine his physical body and advance his cultivation. His physical body had now advanced to the sixth level of the Astral Transformation realm, and contained ice and fire energy, as well as a portion of the power of spatial laws. As such whenever Ye Chen attacked, all his moves would be imbued with the power of the spatial laws, increasing his power by fifty percent! However, his cultivation level still did not increase. Three of his Great Daos were perfected, and he was almost ready to advance to the Divine King realm. All that was left was the Buddhist Great Dao, which had yet to be perfected. Whoosh! Whoosh! Golden Buddhist runes circled around Ye Chen’s body. Inside his body, three forces were circling around each other, constantly forging and refining his body.  “To infiltrate the Soul Race, I must be able to fully conceal my aura!” After Ye Chen finished cultivating, he sat in front of the table and studied the map of the Soul Race’s territory that he had obtained. The map indicated all the buildings in the Soul Race’s territory, including where the Dao Integration realm elders lived, where the Primordial Chaos realm guardians lived, where the Creation realm ancestors lived, and also the forbidden area that contained the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Dragon Herb. He had purchased this map from an intelligence-related sect, the Prophecy Pavilion, and it had cost him three Divine King-grade artifacts. “Many of the experts were killed by Elder Qing Jian, while a good number were injured as well, so it’s obvious that those ones will still be in seclusion, recuperating.” “By my calculations, there should be less than thirty percent of the experts left inside the Soul Race’s territory. Therefore, if I want to sneak in and seize the herb, it will be during these few days!” “If I wait too long, they will all finish recovering, and I won’t have any chance of succeeding!” “As for that Creation realm ancestor…” He gently stroked his forehead and thought about what method he could use to avoid the detection of the Soul Race’s ancestor. Creation realm experts’ divine souls were extremely powerful, and their spiritual sense was thus sharper than most. It allowed them to clearly sense everything within a radius of 10,000 meters. To avoid being detected by them, he had to find a way to hide his aura, or use some sort of stealth technique. His current concealment technique could only ensure that nearby cultivators could not sense Ye Chen’s aura, but he had to move around as well, so staying undetected was easier said than done. “What if I use the power of the black stone?” “Masters, what do you think?” Ye Chen asked. “It should be possible!” Lan Xueyue thought for a while and said, “I can’t tell what the origins of this stone are, but in short, it’s very mysterious and powerful. In addition, there are more tombstones in the Samsara Graveyard waiting to be activated!” “As long as you can enter the forbidden area, or perhaps the area covered by the formation, it’s very likely that they will be triggered and you will have more of us to help you.” “With our combined strength, you should be able to escape the pursuit of the ancestor of the Soul Race!” “It’s just that…” Failure meant certain death, but if he did not do this, Ji Lin would definitely die in less than a month. “Then let’s give it a try. I’m not afraid of the Soul Race!” “When the time comes, if I unleash my bloodline power and combine it with all of my other trump cards, I refuse to believe that I can’t escape his pursuit!” Ye Chen revealed a ruthless look as he looked back at Ji Lin’s unconscious body. There was no cure for the soul poison other than the Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Herb.  As a result, Ye Chen had no choice but to take the risk of trespassing into the forbidden area of the Soul Race. “Very well. We will help you,” Lan Xueyue said. At the same time, Sunlight Buddha and the other Golden Buddhas were absorbing the power of various Divine King-grade and Primordial Chaos-grade artifacts, trying to recover their strength to their peak as soon as possible. Their bodies were also being repaired by new Divine King-grade artifacts. Currently, all three of them were as strong as fifth-level Primordial Chaos realm experts. If they worked together, they could fight one or two peak-level Primordial Chaos realm experts, and with enough artifacts, they might even be able to hold their own against early-stage Dao Integration realm experts. However, the enemy this time was a Creation realm expert!
