Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1676 - 1673: A New Era

Lingxu Taoist coldly snorted, the sound resembling a biting cold wind, carrying endless disdain: "A dying person with eyes but no vision, why should he know so much?"

After saying that, he casually raised his plain hand and waved it lightly.

In an instant, a terrifying Nascent Soul Force, like a surging black tide, irresistibly surged into Wu Zan’s body.

Where this force passed, Wu Zan’s meridians inside his body seemed like fragile spider silk, breaking into pieces, and his vitality quickly vanished like a dying candle.

In a flash, Wu Zan’s body convulsed violently, and a mouthful of fresh blood gushed out like a fountain, leading to his sudden death!

"Infinite Venerable!" Lingxu Taoist nodded slightly, his face calm as still water, softly chanting the title. In his deep eyes, like an unfathomable pool, there was no trace of fluctuation or emotion.

Then, with a slight thought, a flash of spiritual light from his palm instantaneously absorbed Wu Zan’s corpse into his mysterious storage treasure.

Immediately after, with a sweep of his long sleeves, several spells were cast out, and the glaring bloodstains on the ground vanished as if wiped away by an invisible giant hand, as if there had never been such a fierce battle here.

With everything settled, Lingxu Taoist turned around, the arrogance on his face had long disappeared, replaced with full reverence and devotion.

He directly met Xu Wendong’s eyes, bowing deeply, sincerely saying: "Please forgive my previous numerous offenses and disrespect, Immortal."

"To make amends for this immeasurable mistake, I am willing to serve diligently, follow the Immortal tirelessly despite any storms ahead, and remain devoted!"

Thinking of before, when he doubted Xu Wendong, merely at the Foundation Establishment Stage, regarding his claim about the Mystic Spirit Pavilion, he was dismissive and scornful in his words.

However, witnessing firsthand Xu Wendong’s extraordinary abilities and magical power during his battle with Wu Zan, Lingxu’s previous doubts have been entirely dispelled, replaced with unwavering trust and deep awe.

He knew well that this seemingly young cultivator with a low cultivation level must have hidden secrets and a powerful backing.

For this reason, without hesitation, he lowered himself and apologized to Xu Wendong, hoping to gain the opportunity to follow his path.

Xu Wendong slightly smirked, casually saying: "Hmph, don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. Do you truly intend to serve me faithfully as my attendant?"

"Clearly, you covet some potential fortune around me, hoping to reap some benefits from it."

Upon hearing Xu Wendong’s words, Lingxu Taoist’s expression remained unchanged, keeping his utmost respectful stance, bowing deeply again and saying: "Immortal, you see clearly, although I lack talent, I understand that opportunities are predestined, and fortune is hard to find."

"If the Immortal thinks I harbor ill intentions, it’s a grave misunderstanding."

"I truly admire the Immortal’s abilities, deeply felt that you are not confined to your present state and will achieve greatness in the future."

"In this vast world, for a confused cultivator like me, to follow such an Immortal, receive teachings, and bask in your majestic presence, is the greatest blessing, how dare I seek anything else?"

Seeing his face full of sincerity and seriousness, Xu Wendong sighed lightly and said: "In that case, you may stay at the Mystic Spirit Pavilion for now!"

Lingxu Taoist was overjoyed beyond expression, hurriedly expressing gratitude: "Thank you, Immortal, for your acceptance. I will devote myself wholeheartedly to repay your trust."

Xu Wendong poured two cups of tea, casually saying: "Tell me about the Cultivation World, I don’t really know much about the outside world!"

Lingxu Taoist’s face was full of respect, he slightly bent forward, slowly began speaking: "Replying to the Young Master, cultivators appeared widely in the world sixteen years ago."

"At that time, it was as if the world underwent a dramatic change, like a rain shower causing all living beings to revive, thus it was called the era of Spiritual Revival."

"During that period, opportunities appeared abruptly like stars, dazzling and abundant."

"There were lucky ones who accidentally found a Spirit Fruit in a remote deep mountain, the fruit seemed ordinary yet contained endless nature’s spiritual energy and mysterious Daoist charm."

"This person was bold and cautious, resolutely consuming it."

"In an instant, the Spiritual Power surged like waves within him, breaking numerous barriers, successfully transforming him, and swiftly forming a precious Golden Core, henceforth embarking on the path of becoming a powerful cultivator, renowned far and wide."

"There were also wise ones, encountering a torrential rain, where raindrops seemed to hold some mysterious revelation."

"This person sat and meditated in the rain, focused and immersed, as if merging with the world, under the rain curtain’s cleansing, he suddenly attained enlightenment in an ancient Secret Technique long lost."

"This technique was extraordinarily exquisite, after cultivating it, his Cultivation Realm surged dramatically, becoming the object of envy and emerging in the Cultivation World."

"There were others with outstanding talent, who, through sheer luck, seldom comprehended and mastered the Divine Flying Skill."

"Seeing his movement, he could soar through the sky, like an Immortal descending to the world, free and relaxed. His flying posture was either as swift as a meteor streaking across the sky, or drifting leisurely like idle clouds."

"Such marvelous sight drew countless glances of admiration and astonishment."

"Events of this kind are countless, as numerous as sands in a river, difficult to completely describe."

"Among these numerous opportunities, more are ancient immortal ruins gradually appearing throughout the country."

"These ruins are like mysterious treasure vaults, sealed with the memories of ages and endless treasures."

"The Secret Technique Manuals contained within may document the supreme Magic Techniques for cultivation, or reveal keys to breakthrough realms."

"Those elixirs were all refined from Heaven and Earth Treasures by Ancient Immortals, consuming them can heal, improve cultivation, and prolong life."

"There are also rare medicinal herbs, each emitting rich spiritual energy, essential for refining high-grade elixirs."

"The emergence of these ruins undoubtedly opened a door to brilliance for cultivators, attracting countless seekers."

"Since the Spiritual Revival, cultivators have emerged in droves within the world."

"To date, according to incomplete statistics, the number of cultivators in our country has reached over twenty million."

"However, who is the most powerful among them remains shrouded in mystery, unknown to anyone."

"There may be sublime masters hidden deep in mountain caves, cultivating in solitude; or great powers hiding among the common people, biding their time."

Xu Wendong pondered thoughtfully, then looked at Lingxu Taoist: "Could you help me with something?"
