Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2624: Chapter 2623: Headless War Corpse

Deep within the Earth Dragon Valley, shrouded in mist, it seemed like the most mysterious gateway between heaven and earth.

Lin Dong and his group passed through the Dark Poisonous Miasma and officially entered Earth Dragon Valley.

After traveling for a while, they came upon a battlefield relic.

This battlefield relic was also a necessary path into the depths of Earth Dragon Valley.

Blood mist lingered, and even after many years, the scent of blood from this battlefield had not dissipated.

Amidst the blood mist, as the team ventured deeper, their surroundings gradually became desolate and eerie, with an ancient aura of blood and time pervading the air.

"Boom～～" At this moment, a terrifying aura emerged.

The group halted in their steps; ahead of them lay a vast open space, with a colossal headless corpse lying in its center.

The terrifying aura they had just sensed emanated from this corpse.

Though it had lost its head, the immense momentum surrounding it still inspired awe, as if death could not strip away the glory and power it had in life.

"This is a corpse, dead for many years. Why does it still emit a terrifying aura?" Yun Ruoxian asked aloud, gazing at the headless corpse before them.

The eyes of Yun Che, a Secondary Ancestor, slowly opened.

His voice echoed heavily and powerfully in the silent valley: "This headless corpse was once a Secondary Ancestor-level powerhouse, who fell here. Yet, relying on its strong will and cultivation, its body remains indestructible, becoming the guardian of this ancient battlefield."

"Martial artists who reach the level of the Five Heavens and above are considered Secondary Ancestor-level figures in major powerful forces. At this level, even after death, a body remains immortal. If there is a strong will in life to sustain it, the body will become a war corpse, existing for thousands and tens of thousands of years!"

"This corpse died here on this ancient battlefield. It died in battle, and the battle will within it is extremely terrifying. It is that battle will maintaining it, so even after so many years since its death, it remains indestructible and continues to emit a terrifying aura."

"Once it senses someone approaching, its battle will awakens. It transforms into a ’War God,’ battling until death."

"When its battle will resurrects, either it kills the intruders, or its body and will are extinguished by the intruders..."

As Yun Che spoke, sensing the group’s approach, the battle will of the headless corpse fully awakened.

It rose from its supine position. That terrifying aura spread, with blood mist swirling above its headless body like a blood-colored cloud floating in the air.

In its hand, it held a massive battle halberd.

Standing upright, it resembled a headless War God, poised on the spot!

Seeing this, the six Heavenly Realm younger generation exchanged glances, their eyes filled with both tension and excitement.

Facing such an entity, they wanted to engage in battle with it.

This was a rare opportunity!

Lin Dong also summoned his Yangxin Sword, silently reciting the sword technique’s secret, preparing to face this sudden battle.

"Lin Dong, since you have become the leader of your team of seven, you will lead everyone in joining forces to slay this headless corpse." Yun Che’s gaze fell on Lin Dong, his eyes glimmering with light.

Their primary purpose this time for bringing the younger generation to Earth Dragon Valley, in addition to obtaining the Earth Dragon Treasure Technique, was to achieve some secondary goals.

Such as training everyone, allowing them to improve themselves in battle!

At this moment, it was an opportunity.

A battle with the ’War Corpse’ left behind by the ancient battlefield is a rare opportunity indeed.

The Six Great Second Ancestors did not intervene, using the ’War Corpse’ as an object for their younger generation’s training. They wanted to see how these younger warriors could extinguish the war corpse.

Yun Ruoxian was the first to strike.

Her graceful figure moved like a fairy among clouds, as she waved her hands, and crystalline ice crystals formed at her fingertips, transforming into a gigantic ice sword that swept towards the headless war corpse.

However, when the ice sword, seemingly able to destroy everything, touched the war corpse’s hardened body, it merely made a crisp sound before dissipating, leaving no trace behind.

Yun Ruoxian’s expression changed, whispering, "Its body is so strong; my ice sword, which can break a Heavenly Realm Sacred Body, is like an egg against a stone when it strikes it!"

Tang Yun of the Tang Sect, renowned for her poison techniques, flicked her fingers, sending several tiny poison needles laced with an undetectable dark fragrance silently towards the war corpse’s vital points.

But as those poison needles approached the corpse, it seemed as though they were repelled by an invisible force, falling, while the poison gas was absorbed by the strange energy on the corpse’s surface upon contact, rendering it ineffective.

"Poison attacks are useless as well." Tang Yun puckered her charming face and shook her head.

The Little Monarch Red Dragon of the Dark Family then unleashed a dense aura of darkness, his silhouette flickering in the shadows, merging with the night.

He thrust his palms forward, and torrents of dark energy gathered into a massive dark dragon’s claw, viciously seizing the headless war corpse.

Surprisingly, however, when the dragon claw touched the corpse, it was absorbed like a clay ox into the sea, leaving no mark on its body.

Even the power of darkness was to no avail against this headless war corpse!

Aidan from the Bright Clan, seeing this, wielded the power of light.

His entire body emitted a soft and sacred radiance, with two pairs of illusory, transparent wings of light rising from his back.

Then, suddenly opening his eyes, two dazzling beams of light shot out, directly aiming at the headless war corpse’s chest.

Nonetheless, even under the illumination of light power, the war corpse’s body remained as impenetrable as ever, and though the beams were bright, they couldn’t penetrate its defense.

"Even the power of light cannot purify this war corpse! It truly is impervious to weaponry, invincible to water and fire. Light and darkness cannot suppress it!" Aidan sighed deeply, unable to break the corpse’s physical defense.

The Crescent Wolf Emperor, as a werewolf clan bloodline heir, let out a long howl, his entire fur bristling up, transforming into a gigantic silver wolf shadow.

It opened its bloody maw, pouncing towards the headless war corpse. Yet when the wolf shadow’s claws and fangs touched the war corpse, they were seemingly rebounded by an invisible force, causing the Crescent Wolf Emperor to bear considerable impact himself.

He too failed!

Tian Kong, the previous generation of the Tian Family’s Son of Heaven, an outstanding member of his clan, wore a solemn expression as he formed seal gestures with his hands, a faintly visible Heavenly Phenomenon Map of the Tian Family materializing behind him.

With a low shout, the stars within the map began to circulate, finally converging into a brilliant sword light aimed at the headless war corpse.

This strike had Tian Kong’s full strength, yet it merely made the corpse tremble slightly, failing to cause substantial damage.

He managed to slightly shake the corpse, indicating that he was likely the strongest among the six.

Seeing their attacks, the Six Great Second Ancestors all shook their heads slightly, showing a hint of disappointment.

Yun Che reminded, "This war corpse, although it lacks the battle power it had in life, and will not fight using various martial arts as it did before, still retains the Eight Layers of Physical Defense, the Secondary Ancestor-level Eight Layers Physical Defense. None of you can break through it now..."

Upon hearing this, Yun Ruoxian couldn’t help but say, "Does that mean we can’t defeat it no matter what?"

At that moment, Lin Dong spoke up, "Not necessarily."

"Who says one must break through its physical defense to destroy it?"
