The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine-Chapter 438 - : Taking on Everyone Alone!
Chapter 438: Chapter 438: Taking on Everyone Alone!
Very quickly, the eighteen magic artifacts cloaked in a golden glow on the sacrificial table began to shed their surface grime at a speed visible to the naked eye.
They turned crystal clear and emitted an almost divine radiance, with a smidge of ancient charm diffusing outwards.
This change was so staggering that it made everyone’s eyes dazzle with confusion.
However, the light above these magic artifacts quickly retracted inward soon enough.
It was like a sharp sword sheathed again in its scabbard.
True treasures indeed concealed their divine glow, just like people; those who could not keep their calm would never amount to anything great.
Success!
“It’s done~~” Huang Xiaolong chuckled leisurely.
At this moment, Huang Xiaolong, still shimmering with the remnants of the golden glow, appeared otherworldly. He was like an ancient Taoist sage with luminous skin and a dignified demeanor, inspiring awe at first glance.
Quiet.
The mountaintop fell eerily silent.
Everyone’s mind was blown.
The eighteen magic artifacts that had left Master Zuo at a loss were successfully unlocked by Huang Xiaolong!
Simultaneously unlocking the light of eighteen magic artifacts!
This was beyond the capabilities of ordinary people!
Miraculous!
“Little Long is so cool! He won, yay!” Sun Wei’s eyes were glued to Huang Xiaolong, the deep affection in them was so palpable that even a fool could see her unwavering love for Huang Xiaolong.
The thought of Huang Xiaolong’s total victory tonight and herself being the prize for him to claim filled Sun Wei with overwhelming joy.
Ying Aoshan, despite her distinguished status, couldn’t help but gaze at Huang Xiaolong with an infatuated look, her admiration for him flooding her heart like an endless river. ‘They say human efforts have limits. A person, no matter how talented, can’t accomplish much if he spreads himself too thin. Even focus and dedication won’t necessarily bring perfection. But Young Master Huang excels in guqin, calligraphy, and Taoist magic… He truly is a master of all. Additionally, he must have some covert mastery… He’s simply amazing. He wouldn’t lose to the most gifted young men in our family.’
Mengqi was torn with assorted emotions.
She had always looked down on Huang Xiaolong for becoming her grandfather’s master, considering it a disgrace to the Jin Family. But now she wasn’t so sure…
‘Could it be that my grandfather’s discipleship to him is really a blessing for the Jin Family?’ an absurd idea flashed across Mengqi’s mind.
The high profile spectators in the audience were originally supporters of the three masters. However, after seeing the outcome of the first contest, many secretly began supporting and worshipping Huang Xiaolong. They did not disclose their new allegiance due to respect.
“Puff~~~~~~~” Master Zuo spat out a mouthful of fresh blood in sheer anger. He shot a bitter look at Huang Xiaolong, wishing nothing more than to tear him to pieces!
Today, in his field of expertise, he was embarrassingly defeated by a young lad!
“Master Zuo, please retire~~” Master Qiao turned a ghastly pale. They had utterly lost the first fight! But there were two more rounds to go, and they still had a chance!
“Kid, seems you do have some skills after all. But in the next two rounds, we won’t give you even a sliver of a chance anymore!” Master Qiao glared venomously at Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong chuckled, “Let’s not waste time. The second contest involves spirit purging, right? How do we play?”
Master Zhao, please…” Chen Xiong, with a bitter taste in his mouth, invited Master Zhao into the second round.
“Hmph!” Master Zhao steadied his emotions and directly rose up.
Dashing forward.
“Junior Brother Zhao, don’t give him a chance! Teach this boy his place!” Master Qiao warned earnestly.
If they lost the second contest, the game would be over!
The three-rounds, two-victory rule wouldn’t even need to come into play in the last round!
“I have got this” Master Zhao said coldly.
Following this, a group of sturdy men carefully carried some items between Huang Xiaolong and Master Zhao.
They brought what looked like a set of water barrels, each made from an unknown material. There were six of them in total.
These vessels were plastered with yellow talismans, and a chilling aura of evil qi seeped out from within. If you listened carefully, you could faintly make out the pitiful cries emanating from inside.
It was as if the yellow talismans stuck on the surface of the container were suppressing some sort of evil entity!
“Oh… so it’s a soul urn.” Huang Xiaolong smirked.
The so-called soul urns are made from extremely yin earth. What is extremely yin earth? It is soil that has been exposed to yin energy for many years, nourished by ghost qi, corpse qi, and evil qi. For instance, the soil from graveyards.
Containers made from this type of yin earth are excellent magic artifacts for nurturing ghosts. Within them, ghosts and other yin entities can be nourished and slowly evolve.
Therefore, without a doubt, these six soul urns before me must be full of ghosts.
Master Zhao sneered at Huang Xiaolong. “Listen well, the second round is a demon-slaying and exorcism contest! Hmph! The fundamental task of us cultivators is to subdue monsters and dispel demons. Charging a magic artifact is just a bonus! If a Taoist can’t exorcise, they’re nothing more than trash!”
Master Zhao emphasized the word “trash” as if he was scolding Huang Xiaolong.
“These soul urns are filled with fierce ghosts! They were gifted to me by my master, for me to hone my Taoist skills. Initially, there were 12 soul urns. Over the years, I’ve unsealed and completely annihilated the fierce ghosts imprisoned within six of them! Throughout my life, I have vanquished over a thousand ghosts! What do you, a greenhorn, have to compete against me? Listen! Each of these six soul urns nurtures 20 ghosts, suppressed by 20 talismans. Each time a talisman is torn off, a fierce ghost will be released!”
“Today, we will see who can vanquish more ghosts! Who will go first, you or me?” Master Zhao’s eyes were grim.
If there are 20 ghosts in each of the six soul urns, suppressed by 20 talismans, then one fierce ghost will be set free each time a talisman is torn off.
That totals to 120 ghosts.
Needless to say, the risks of this second contest are obvious.
In the first round, charging a magic artifact carries no risk; even if you fail, there’s no harm done.
However, ghost-slaying is a different story. If you falter in a battle against a fierce ghost, you will be possessed! It’s life-threatening and not fun at all.
The hearts of the spectators were tightly wound!
“Hehe~~ How many fierce ghosts do you dare to single-handedly take on at a time?” Huang Xiaolong suddenly chuckled at Master Zhao.
“Hmph! Brat, you talk too much!” Master Zhao shot Huang Xiaolong a contemptuous look.
Contained within these soul urns are orange-robed fierce ghosts. With the help of his magic artifact, Taoist skills, and talismans, Master Zhao’s record is releasing and battling eight ghosts at once, annihilating them all by the end.
This is a formidable feat!
An attack from eight orange-robed ghosts!
Today, Master Zhao brought some high-level attack talismans that his master had gifted him. Three in total. Each one can instantly kill ten orange-robed ghosts.
In other words, three talismans could easily help Master Zhao annihilate thirty orange-robed ghosts. Added to his own limit, he could eliminate thirty-eight orange-robed ghosts in one go!
One against thirty-eight! This basically ensured Master Zhao’s victory!
“Hahaha~~ Can’t wait anymore? Alright then, I’ll go first this time.” Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed. “I wish to single-handedly take on all the fierce ghosts contained within the soul urns!”
“What? What did you say?” Master Zhao doubted his hearing!
Huang Xiaolong didn’t say more, but simply waved his hand, and a wind blew across,
Shoo~~ Shoo~~ Shoo~~~~~~
All 120 talismans on the six soul urns lifted into the air and turned into ash!
The next moment!
The six soul urns began to shake synchronously, more and more violently, as if the imprisoned Sun Monkey were about to break free after 500 years!
“This guy is crazy! Crazy! He’s a madman!” Master Zhao’s face became instantly pale with fright!
Huang Xiaolong actually released all of the orange-robed fierce ghosts!
120 orange-robed fierce ghosts!
What followed next!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
All six soul urns shattered!
