The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2890: Chapter 2864: Ye Chen’s Crisis (2nd Update)

...

At the same moment, deep within a dark sea, a pair of purple eyes suddenly opened wide, fury swirling within them. Violent energy instantly stirred the seawater, and the mysterious figure hidden in the shadows let out a loud roar: "How is this possible! One of my three Origin Demon Worms has fallen?"

It must be noted that using Heavenly Demon Worms to reproduce and invade the bodies of martial artists isn’t something that any demon race can do easily; only those of extremely high level possess such ability!

And the Heavenly Demon Worms nurtured by the high-level demon clan are divided into Origin Demon Worms and Low-class Demon Worms.

Although Low-class Demon Worms can also transform martial artists into demons, the resultant demons are extremely low-level, like cannon fodder, and their strength doesn’t increase much.

However, Origin Demon Worms are completely different!

Low-class Demon Worms can be bred almost infinitely, whereas Origin Demon Worms are limited in number, requiring the expenditure of countless efforts from the demon race to nurture each one!

Consequently, demons created by Origin Demon Worms are never low-rank, and they greatly enhance the host’s strength!

In the eyes of the Outer Heaven Demon, only demons created by Origin Demon Worms can be truly called family; Low-class Demon Worms are like slaves, mere cannon fodder!

Not only are Origin Demon Worms incredibly precious, but the human martial artists who can become their containers are also exceedingly rare. Overall, the demons spawned through such means are extremely valuable, especially in this era!

And Gao Yin is such an existence!

He believed that these three Origin Demon Worms could be cultivated into three extraordinarily powerful and terrifying demons to fulfill his grand plan of bringing the Heavenly Demon Clan back to the world!

This Demon Soul had been sealed for tens of millions of years and had finally broken free, obtaining a new body, yet there were only three Origin Demon Worms within, and one has fallen so quickly?

This is tantamount to losing an arm!

What’s more, Origin Demon Worms are akin to this Ancient Demon Clan’s offspring!

How could he not be furious?

His eyes flickered with madness. Moreover, there is a massive secret hidden within high-level demon clans...

"Ye Chen!!!"

A non-human roar of fury shook the entire sea region, causing tumultuous waves, as the beasts within the sea and nearby martial artists either wailed mournfully or their faces changed violently!

Although they couldn’t hear the roar of the Demon Soul, the changes in the sea before their eyes seemed like an enraged Evil God awakening from deep slumber!

...

In a valley near the Land of No Life within the First Divine Country.

A silhouette descended rapidly from the sky, drenched in blood, eyes tightly shut—Ye Chen, who had lost consciousness due to the backlash of the Destruction Divine Dao!

At this moment, Ye Chen was unaware that where the Heavenly Demon he had slain died, its body, although completely obliterated by the Annihilation Sword light, left behind a purple light orb the size of a thumb, suspended quietly in the Void.

And just as this orb appeared, a fluctuation emerged in the Void, and a transparent vortex suddenly manifested, emanating a tremendously powerful attraction, seemingly intent on drawing the purple orb inside!

But at this moment, as Ye Chen was falling, the Slaughter Sword clutched in his hand erupted in blood-red light, and blood-colored chains appeared on the purple orb, pulling it toward the Slaughter Sword!

The transparent vortex trembled slightly, seeming to sense the Slaughter Sword competing for the purple orb, and the vortex’s attraction instantly increased several fold, leading to a stalemate as Ye Chen continued to plummet!

With a resounding crash, Ye Chen’s body slammed into the ground, cracking it, and at that instant, the transparent vortex battling the Slaughter Sword finally reached its limit.

The entire space quivered slightly, a strange rupture echoed, and the transparent vortex succumbed to the Slaughter Sword’s power, utterly collapsing, while the purple light orb dropped beside Ye Chen, transforming into a tiny purple crystal stone like sand, and was then absorbed by the Slaughter Sword!

Ye Lingtian, the Arrow God, who had been observing this incredible scene, was utterly astonished!

It was only now that he snapped back to reality!

What was the transparent vortex just now?

Ye Lingtian pondered the aura sensed from within the vortex...

Such essence is impossible to appear in the Divine Kingdom!

It exists only in the Upper Realm!

He murmured incredulously, "So, the invasion of the Heavenly Demons is not as straightforward as we imagined, with traces of the Upper Realm in play?"

And what is that purple light orb, desired even by the existence from the Upper Realm?

Everything is becoming increasingly complicated!

Nevertheless, Ye Lingtian forcefully suppressed his thoughts; the most urgent matter is Ye Chen’s condition now!

Ye Chen’s current state is very poor; even though Ye Lingtian has witnessed numerous miracles and his incredible vitality, he cannot guarantee Ye Chen’s survival!

The Destructive Aura is ravaging Ye Chen’s body at an unimaginable pace, while the divine blood, reincarnation bloodline, Heavenly Demon bloodline, and other powers within him are frantically operating, transforming into surging vitality to withstand the destruction!

This scenario is only bearable for Ye Chen; other martial artists, even those at the Chaos Realm Peak or at the Heavenly God Realm, would be reduced to Nihility in an instant!

Moreover, Ye Lingtian is most concerned that this place is not at all safe!

This location is outside the Land of No Life, avoiding the devouring of vitality, but it also means that other life forms can survive here!

Ye Chen is now teetering on the edge of life and death, any external force, no matter how slight, could lead to his demise—the threat of a hungry beast or a malevolent martial artist!

Just at this moment, a beast roar sounded from nearby, and a creature resembling a black bear, with gleaming black fur and blood-red horns, knocked down countless trees, charging towards Ye Chen with boundless excitement and frenzy!

Ye Lingtian’s heart raced; after all, Ye Chen’s unimaginably dense blood essence is the most exquisite delicacy to these beasts!

The horned black bear beast swiftly reached Ye Chen, opening its blood-red maw, preparing to bite down fiercely on Ye Chen’s body!
