The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine - Chapter 997

Huang Xiaolong and the others, joined hands to climb the ladder and arrived at the second level of the Xuanhuang Tower.

As soon as they ascended, they saw numerous people turned into mysterious lights and were directly transported out.

After reaching the second level, Huang Xiaolong was still nonchalant. As the Yin Emperor, his will was that of a god’s, his soul’s power had formed divine thoughts, a single divine thought could transform into an avatar. By all logic, he had already reached the “Heaven and Earth Manifestation” realm found within the world of overseas cultivators.

Of course, Huang Xiaolong’s realm was difficult to categorize using the system of the overseas cultivators’ world. He truly was an anomaly–a unique anomaly between heaven and earth!

“What do you all feel?” Huang Xiaolong asked his wives and the three little demons curiously.

“Little Long~ we are also okay,” Ma Chuxia, Feng Hanyan, Yan Pianpian, and Huo Bingyan, at this moment, had perspiration appearing on their foreheads, their tender cheeks a bit sweaty, breathing slightly labored. Their walking gait was not as composed as usual.

But they were not overwhelmed.

The three little demons of course strolled leisurely and chatted calmly.

“Eh~~ this second level of the Xuanuang Tower, the spiritual pressure, is just about 1 or 2 times stronger than the first level,” Huang Xiaolong chuckled.

However, on this second level, some people were struggling as they crawled towards the heart of the tower’s stairs, as wretched as dogs, stopping to catch their breath after every few steps. The sweat that burst forth from their bodies flowed across the ground forming puddles after puddles.

“You! Disciple Bingyan!”

Suddenly, a woman with her hands akimbo and leading a group of people came striding towards Huang Xiaolong and the others with a menacing air.

When Huang Xiaolong looked up, he thought, isn’t that Huo Bingyan’s sharp-tongued senior sister? Also, the woman who had killed that young man from Ailao Mountain?

At this moment, the woman and a group of disciples from Dragon Tiger Mountain looked as if they were suffocating from altitude sickness; red blotches appeared on their faces, breathing as laboriously as bellows, appearing extremely strained.

The woman, with eyes full of resentment and suspicion, glared at Huang Xiaolong, her look downright malicious. “How are you still not dead?”

“Senior sister, what are you saying? Why curse my husband the moment you get up here!” Huo Bingyan was also livid.

“Last night, my man and big senior brother wanted to settle a dispute with you,” the woman raged, chilling murder in her aura, yet with a hint of fear. In her heart, there was a sinister suspicion that her man and big senior brother Zeng Qi did not return all night, and something bad must have happened to them!

Yet, it was hard for her to believe that, even if they joined forces, they could be killed by the young man before her!

“Oh, them~~” Huang Xiaolong said with a sneer, his eyes full of ridicule. “They bet against me last night, lost to me, and considering their faces, they sent you away and then knelt down to me, kowtowed, apologized… Hahaha~~ what, they have disappeared? Probably out of sheer shame, so they must have hid somewhere. It’s also possible they might have committed suicide~~~”
“Bullshit!” The woman exploded in rage, coughing violently with emotions running high, her back bending sharply as if crushed by a heavy weight, barely able to sustain herself.

“Senior sister, don’t get agitated, stay calm, stay calm. Let’s continue tackling the tower~~” the disciples of Dragon Tiger Mountain behind her hurriedly persuaded.

“You! Just you wait!” Although the woman wished to attack Huang Xiaolong immediately, the spiritual pressure inside the Xuanhuang Tower was too terrifying, especially the second level, which she found overwhelmingly difficult to cope with.

Let alone cast spells and fight with people, even walking a few more steps made her breathless.

“I’m telling you, later when we see our master, he will naturally force you to reveal the whereabouts of the big senior brother! If you’ve harmed the big senior brother, today you will surely be crushed to pieces! Our master could destroy your soul with a flick of his finger!” the woman cursed at Huang Xiaolong in fury.

Then she laughed viciously once more. “My man is a disciple from overseas Ailao Mountain. Today, some elders from Ailao Mountain have also come to congratulate our master on his birthday. The elders from Ailao Mountain will personally inquire about my man’s whereabouts from you… Heeheehee~~”
“Are you done talking?” Huang Xiaolong was getting impatient. “If you’re done, then scram.”

“Disciple sister~~” The woman turned her head towards Huo Bingyan, her eyes filled with mockery. “These days, you’ve been sickeningly close to this stinky brat. There are important secrets you probably don’t know about… Well, let me tell you, today, besides being our master’s birthday, many sects from overseas are also coming to the Central Plains for the first time to select disciples. This Xuanhuang Tower is the treasure the overseas sects use to test our talents! As long as one can step into the third level of the Xuanhuang Tower, they qualify to be accepted into an overseas sect! Our master will also permit us to join other sects! My entering the third level of the Xuanhuang Tower is a sure thing, with my exceptional talents, I will definitely go overseas and seek the Way of Immortality! At that time, just wait and see how I’ll deal with you!”

“And you! After I join a great overseas sect and practice my spells, I will personally snuff you out!” Glaring at Huang Xiaolong with venomous eyes, she seemed to look at him as an irreconcilable enemy, and then she waved her hand to the fellow disciples behind her, “Let’s go! To the third level!”

“`
“`
The woman and a group of Longhu Mountain disciples meandered along and finally set foot on the stairs leading to the third level.

About the major overseas sects that would come to recruit disciples in the Central Plains, last night Huang Xiaolong had not elaborated to his wives in detail.

Now that Huo Bingyan’s senior sister had brought it out in the open, Huang Xiaolong took the opportunity to lay out the whole matter.

After listening to Huang Xiaolong’s narrative, Ma Chuxia and the others, including the three little demons, all revealed a look of longing on their faces.

Indeed, the world of cultivators overseas held an inexplicable attraction for them.

It was a brand-new world.

Filled with opportunities, passion, adventure, fantasy…

However, they soon shook their heads in unison.

“Pfft~~ Little Long, what does the world of overseas cultivators have to do with us? You are so strong, if we were to cultivate, following you would be the best choice,” Ma Chuxia said with a charming smile.

Feng Hanyan was also mesmerized as if recalling Huang Xiaolong’s various descent from heaven, unparalleled. “Right, Little Long, those overseas cultivators are no match for you, you could beat them single-handedly.”

“Hahaha~~ You can’t say that. I am very unfamiliar with the world of overseas cultivators, and I don’t understand the cultivation techniques passed down from their major sects… If you really have the luck to join an overseas sect, perhaps, it might be a blessing in disguise?” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes rolled about as if he had some ideas. “Alright, enough chit-chat, let’s continue to challenge the tower.”

He paused, and with a thought from Huang Xiaolong, a palm opened–
Whoosh~~
A talisman shot out from his body, floating above Huang Xiaolong’s palm.

On the talisman was the number “634”… unmistakably the very number that had merged into his body after entering the Xuanhuang Tower.

“I don’t want people to see my trump card, to be targeted by those annoying overseas sects…” Huang Xiaolong smiled, then took out a blank talisman, tearing it into the shape of a paper doll, and bound the numbered talisman to the paper doll, pulling out one of his hairs and tying it all together.

This way, the paper doll would perfectly replace Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong casually tossed it, and the paper doll floated in the second layer of the Xuanhuang Tower.

“Heh~~” Huang Xiaolong nodded, then instructed the three little demons. “You guys don’t even think about testing. If you really join those major overseas sects, I’m afraid it won’t be long before your fox, snake, and cat skins will be peeled off by them. Although I’ve temporarily shielded your demon auras, if you stand out too much in the test and get selected by the major sects, once you go overseas and I’m not by your side, any small mistake could spell disaster for you~~”
The three little demons turned pale with fright when they heard this and hastily said, “We don’t want to go overseas; we want to stay with Young Master always~~”
Huang Xiaolong took out the numbered talismans from within the three little demons’ bodies, then tore off a strand of their hair to make paper dolls for them.

Thus, the numbered talismans of Huang Xiaolong and the three little demons remained in the second layer of the Xuanhuang Tower, creating a false impression.

Of course, Huang Xiaolong and the three little demons would continue to challenge the tower, and the outcome of the final test would be unknown to outsiders!

The third layer of the Xuanhuang Tower!

Here, the spiritual pressure was even denser, like smog.

Within this smog, one could faintly make out the lonely, struggling figures of solitary individuals.

In this third layer, even the three little demons began to feel some pressure.

Ma Chuxia, Huo Bingyan, Feng Hanyan, and Yan Pianpian were like carrying mountains, their steps trembling, sweating profusely, and gritting their teeth to persist.

“Can you still continue?” Huang Xiaolong asked with a smile.

“`
Everyone nodded.

“Alright, let’s not dawdle anymore. Let’s head to the fourth floor,” Huang Xiaolong said with a smile.

Xuanhuang Tower’s fourth floor!

Boom~~~ Boom~~~ Boom~~~
On this fourth floor, the spirit pressure actually condensed into swords, hammers, halberds, spears, arrows… striking from all directions!

Bang~~~!!!!

A giant hammer, formed from spirit pressure, smashed down onto Ma Chuxia’s head.

“Ah~!” Ma Chuxia hissed softly, immediately kneeling down and panting heavily, her whole body shaking like a sieve. She tried to stand up but momentarily lacked the strength. However, Ma Chuxia quickly said, “Little Long! Don’t mind me! I can hold on!”

“Er~~ my little wife, please don’t overdo it,” Huang Xiaolong couldn’t help but feel concerned for his wife.

“No~ no~~ it’s nothing~~~” After a full half-minute, Ma Chuxia finally managed to stand up again.

At the same time.

Pfft~~~!

A longsword, formed from spirit pressure, pierced right through Yan Pianpian’s body.

Yan Pianpian’s body began to fade, “Little Long, I can’t hold on anymore, I’ll wait for you guys outside~~ but I have no regrets for making it to the fourth floor. Little Long, you must reach the Xuanhuang Tower’s summit, the tenth floor~~~”
As soon as she finished speaking, Yan Pianpian’s body turned into nothingness.

She had reached a critical point on this fourth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower and was finally ejected.

Following that.

Another loud noise, and Feng Hanyan was hit by a large spirit-pressure blade.

“Little Long, it seems my limit is here too. Keep going, we’ll meet later.” Feng Hanyan smiled at Huang Xiaolong, Ma Chuxia, and the others before turning into nothingness.

“Er~~ Pianpian, my wife, and Hanyan, my wife, just left like that. I’m so emotional~~” Huang Xiaolong cracked a light-hearted joke. “Alright, let’s keep going.”

Finally, after what seemed like years in a day, Ma Chuxia and Huo Bingyan barely managed to grit their teeth and make it to the fifth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower.

The three little demons also appeared to be struggling a bit.

Huang Xiaolong, however, remained unaffected.

The fifth floor!

Boom~~~ Boom~~~ Boom~~~
Just as they stepped onto the fifth floor, Huo Bingyan was blown away, her body even shattered by the blast!

Turns out, the fifth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower was filled with a rampaging spirit pressure storm!

Indeed, a terrifying storm! It was like it could tear everything apart, turn heaven and earth into dust–a great storm!

Huo Bingyan was blown away as soon as she arrived.

“Er~~ it seems that most people in the world would have trouble withstanding this level of spirit pressure, wouldn’t they?” Huang Xiaolong assessed lightly.

“Yah~~~!” Ma Chuxia was also blown away like a paper kite spiraling in the wind.

Her body rolled through the air repeatedly before crashing down in disarray.

“My little wife, are you okay?” Huang Xiaolong asked hurriedly.

“I~~ I… I feel… I… I can still hold on~~” Ma Chuxia braced herself with her hands, and before she could get up, another storm easily blew her away.

But this time, the place where she landed was not far from the stairs to the sixth floor!

“I… I… I want to try! I must try!” Ma Chuxia decided not to get up but to crawl on the ground, heading toward the stairs to the sixth floor.

As for the three little demons, each step they took, they were pushed back three. Although they were not as embarrassed as Ma Chuxia, flying kites in such a sorry state, they no longer possessed their previous composure.

In the end, Ma Chuxia kept being blown away, but it seemed she gradually found some methods. Every time she was blown away, she even managed to use the spirit storm’s wind to actively move herself towards the stairs.

Finally!

Ma Chuxia miraculously made it to the sixth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower!

Huang Xiaolong even admired Ma Chuxia’s stubborn willpower.

The sixth floor!

The sixth floor of the Xuanhuang Tower featured spirit pressure forming magma, flame!

Ma Chuxia could no longer continue to create miracles, and as soon as she arrived, she was burned into nothingness by a flame.

“Little Long~ I’m so tired, I’m heading out now. See you later.” Ma Chuxia smiled resignedly. “I think I did pretty well~~ giggle~~~”
The seventh floor.

The seventh floor of the Xuanhuang Tower was an icy, snowy land!

A kingdom of ice formed by spirit pressure!

The three little demons didn’t last long on the seventh floor. They were quickly frozen into ice sculptures and then shattered.

They were also sent out of the Xuanhuang Tower. The paper figures left on the second floor, as well as the identifying symbols, also left the Xuanhuang Tower with them and fused back into their bodies without anyone noticing any flaws.

The true test result of the three little demons was the seventh floor of the Xuanhuang Tower, but no one knew except for Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong strolled through the ice and snow world of the seventh floor, murmuring, “I guess, by now, in the entire Xuanhuang Tower, I’m the only one left taking the test, right? Alright, I won’t waste any more time~~ hurry, rush, let’s go to the eighth floor now… ah, that is, the record set by that overseas super-genius. Hahaha~~ I’m going to break this record so easily~~~”
With that thought, Huang Xiaolong actually started to run at high speed on the seventh floor.

In the blink of an eye, he reached the stairs and whooshed up.

Xuanhuang Tower’s eighth floor!

…
