Urban Immortal Doctor Master
Chapter 478 - 478 478 Severely Wounded in an Ambush

478: 478: Severely Wounded in an Ambush 478: 478: Severely Wounded in an Ambush Transmitting one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones at once isn’t something an ordinary cultivator can afford.

Moreover, this isn’t the outside world where there are many grotto heavens and countless spirit stone mines; after more than one hundred thousand years of mining within the grotto heavens, they have become extremely scarce.

Although there are many medicinal herbs, high-rank pill masters are rare, possessing the herbs but lacking the people to refine them.

As a result, the medicinal herbs are very cheap.

Tang Feng this time directly bought them out, at least eighty percent of the city’s herbs ended up in his pocket.

Someone with intentions will definitely notice this.

From the moment Tang Feng left the transmission array, more than just an old man and a woman followed him.

Usually, those who purchase medicinal herbs are of two kinds: major merchants and, naturally, pill masters.

Whether either kind, both could make one take a risk.

After Tang Feng’s transmission to Moon City, he did not stay long.

At this moment, only by leaving the grotto heaven could he truly be safe.

So he quickly flew towards the original entrance of the grotto heaven.

However, those who came to chase him this time were from the Tribulation Realm; even if Tang Feng was fast, he wasn’t faster than them.

When he reached the area where he encountered the War Clan, Tang Feng was intercepted.

Dozens of cultivators surrounded him.

“Kid, in such a rush, where are you hurrying to?” a female cultivator asked.

“Naturally, I’m going home.

What do all of you intend to do?” Tang Feng replied with a faint smile.

“You’re knowingly asking, of course.

Naturally, we want to ‘borrow’ something from you,” another cultivator said with a laugh.

“As a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, what do I have that is worth borrowing?” Tang Feng asked.

“Enough with the nonsense; we all know what’s going on.

Leave behind the Sumeru Ring, and you can go,” an old man said.

“Oh, it turns out you are here to rob me of my belongings, but what to do…

I’m someone who always responds better to soft tactics than to coercion,” Tang Feng said with a smile.

“Since that’s the case, you can only blame your bad luck,” one cultivator attacked first.

The others didn’t stay idle.

For just one Sumeru Ring, whoever took it could claim it.

Tang Feng employed the Wolf King Step, moving freely among the group of skilled fighters.

This truly stunned those people.

A Nascent Soul Realm cultivator dodging attacks from adversaries two realms higher—this was simply unheard of.

Their eyes blazed even more fiercely.

This kid has a big secret on him, and everyone changed their minds.

They wanted not only his possessions but also to control him.

Thus, each one of them showed their true skill.

Suddenly, Tang Feng found himself on the defensive.

Had it not been for his damned mutated Dantian, Tang Feng might have already reached the Heavenly Destiny Realm by now; he wouldn’t need to be in such dire straits.

If it had been one or two people, he could have escaped safely.

Now, escaping without some sacrifice would be difficult.

Although Tang Feng’s body technique was excellent, he could still collide with someone with so many around.

Reluctantly, he had to counterattack, utilizing rune charms.

The Invincible Body lasted only sixty breaths, reserved for critical moments to save his life.

At this moment, he dared not use it too early.

Tang Feng was somewhat anxious; the more time dragged on, the more at a disadvantage he became.

At this point, he was all out of options.

The opponents were two realms higher than him; no matter how strong, he couldn’t be their match.

While retreating in battle, he quickly received injuries.

And they were not light.

These were still because the opponents didn’t truly wish to kill him; he was evidently more useful alive than dead.

It was because he saw this that he surreptitiously made some maneuvers.

Just as he set the formation, those people seemed to have lost interest too, but a terrifying killing intent intensely descended upon him.

Naturally, Tang Feng was not afraid, but he was somewhat sorrowful.

He didn’t know how long the formation could hold.

Bang!

Dozens of energies bombarded Tang Feng.

In that brief instant, these cultivators had reached a consensus.

Rather than letting this young man go, it would be better to annihilate him.

They were shocked by Tang Feng’s potential and his endless strategies.

To avoid Tang Feng’s revenge in the future.

It must be said, people are very selfish.

And in their eyes, there were only interests, no right or wrong.

Only formidable strength could control one’s own fate.

Tang Feng suffered severe injuries and passed out by the lake.

When he woke up, he found himself in a cave.

Just as he was about to get up, a wave of pain coursed through his body.

Although the dozen or so strikes were not their strongest attack, perhaps it was fate.

But Tang Feng’s formation took effect, controlling them completely for a short time.

“Uncle, let’s go back to the city.” The woman gave up when she saw Tang Feng battling so many high-ranking Tribulation experts; all she felt was admiration.

If she might not have been able to leave unharmed from these people’s attacks, Tang Feng had managed it.

Thus, she abandoned the pursuit.

Tang Feng thereby dodged a bullet.

“Don’t move.”

A voice echoed in the cave.

Tang Feng looked up, incredulous.

“Lady, how come you’re here?”

Lady Nangong gave him a look, “After you left, I’ve been following you.

I noticed many people harboring ill intentions towards you.

I couldn’t have taken you away comfortably from their midst during the battle, so only when you were alone could I reveal myself and save you.”

“Thank you!”

“You’ve also helped me before.

Heal quickly; I’ll keep watch outside.”

The formation Tang Feng set up completely concealed their presence.

Five days later, the cultivators who couldn’t find Tang Feng could only leave disappointed, but they didn’t go far, only staying in nearby Yao Yue City.

Tang Feng had recovered fifty percent, which was already miraculous.

The whole time, Lady Nangong had been watching outside, and Tang Feng felt deeply moved; he hadn’t expected that helping her once would aid him in escaping a calamity.

Could it be that destiny had arranged this?

These insubstantial Void Elements, Tang Feng never believed in them.

But the deeper the encounter, the more he felt controlled by forces beyond himself, still not completely understanding this world.

“Lady, you can go back now.

I’m fine.” Tang Feng didn’t want to implicate her.

But she remained indifferent, “I don’t feel at ease with you in this state.”

Tang Feng was stunned, “It’s okay, I’ll be very careful.

You can go back.

Make sure to rest and not run around.

It’s not good to suffer from this in the long run.”

“I know, I’m not terribly hurt anymore,”

Lady Nangong said, holding Tang Feng’s hand.

“Lady, why go to such lengths?” Even a fool like Tang Feng could understand the intentions behind Lady Nangong’s actions.

If it were merely out of gratitude, she would have left by now, but her staying had deeply touched him.

When one is injured, the soul feels particularly lonely.

Having someone draw close can easily reach one’s heart.

Three days passed, and Tang Feng had about eighty percent recovered.

At this point, his entire being had transformed.

The injury had allowed his cultivation to advance, especially his body, where the mysterious runes shone even brighter.

Lady Nangong, seeing this, was full of curiosity, having never seen such a miraculous cultivation technique before.

“Don’t ask me; I don’t even know how they came to be,” Tang Feng said helplessly.

“I think it’s a good thing.

Ah Feng, are you rushing to the War Clan because you have ties with them?” “No, I’m not going to the War Clan.

My home is just nearby,” Tang Feng explained.

“Really not a Tang Family member?

It seems I was mistaken, but this is even better.

Through these days of interaction, she felt that Tang Feng was an exceptional man, worthy of betrothing her daughter to.

In fact, she had been harboring this thought all along.”
