Unrivaled Medicine God

by <unknown>

  As the saying went: it was hard for the law to punish the collective. No matter how formidable Old Hai was, it was not possible to kill all of these Divine Traversing Realm experts, right?

  If they were really killed, who would deal with those experts from the Fierce Gale World?

  Among these Divine Traversing Realm experts present, the vast majority were major sects that had several thousand years of legacy, and also a number of new sects which rose up in recent years.

  Regardless of what kind of sect, they all did not hope for their Dao teachings to be lost in oblivion.

  Wu Rong was very delighted in his heart. He gave a few meaningful looks to several people just now. Those few immediately understood and came forward to object to Ye Yuan's plans.

  Moreover, this kind of approach had indeed touched these people's baseline. As long as there was somebody coming forward, it would immediately spread like a plague.

  Everybody stepped forward to object. Heh heh, I want to see how this plan of yours will be implemented! Wu Rong thought in his heart delightedly.

  Old Hai who had both eyes slightly closed the entire time suddenly spoke. He said it to Ye Yuan.

  "Little Brother Ye, looks like everybody objects to your plan. What do you think should be done?" Qi Hai asked nonchalantly.

  These words in Wu Rong's perspective was Qi Hai choosing to compromise, hoping that Ye Yuan could take back the words said earlier.

  Wu Rong was very pleased with himself inwardly. Look at you, this boy, being unbridled! Fighting with this old man, you're still a little too inexperienced!

  Except that these words had another layer of meaning the way Ye Yuan heard it.

  Only to see Ye Yuan grin widely and said, "Severe punishments should be dealt in troubled times! Since there are people not willing to submit, just kill and be done with it!"

  "Hahaha!" Qi Hai suddenly guffawed with laughter and said, "What a fine 'severe punishments should be dealt in troubled times!'"

  Chapter 524. Endless Alliance |

  A moment ago, it was still cloudless for thousands of miles. The next instant, it was a torrential squall.

  After Qi Hai laughed loudly, the situation suddenly changed inside the main hall.

  A horrifying pressure enveloped everybody, and the center of this pressure was precisely Wu Rong!

  When Ye Yuan sensed this pressure, he unwittingly nodded his head secretly. Qi Hai was indeed well-deserving of being the Endless World's Realmlord. This strength most likely already had half a foot into the threshold of Boundless Realm.

  He just had to wait for heavenly tribulation to arrive and then Qi Hai would be able to shatter the void and ascend to the Divine Realm.

  Except, this ascension heavenly tribulation was not so easy to cross. A moment of carelessness would be perishing, and one's Dao dissipating.

  When Wu Rong felt this pressure, his expression could not help changing drastically.

  "Old Hai, what are you trying to do here!"

  Qi Hai did not explain a thing, gently lifting a hand and smacking it towards Wu Rong directly!

  Wu Rong gritted his teeth and said with a savage look, "Old Man Qi Hai, I'll fight it out with you!"

  As he said this, Wu Rong attempted to retaliate too.

  Yet, it was all futile. In front of a Half-Step Boundless Realm expert, the Ninth Level Divine Traversing Wu Rong could not take a single hit as well.

  Bang!

  Wu Rong's body collided heavily onto the wall and dropped down feebly. He was already dead.

  Everyone's expressions became fearful, looking at Qi Hai in disbelief.

  They all knew that Qi Hai was very strong, but never knew that he was actually indomitable to such an extent!

  Qi Hai had not exhibited his strength in front of everyone for many years already. Regarding conjectures about his strength, it was also just hearsay.

  Today, only after seeing Qi Hai striking Wu Rong dead in one palm did they know just how terrifying Qi Hai's strength was.

  A Ninth Level Divine Traversing Realm was already an extremely formidable existence in the Endless World. But he was actually unable to survive a single move from Qi Hai!

  "At this point, you all are actually still harboring hopes of getting lucky, each with your own ulterior motives. Truly don't know life from death! Little Brother Ye illuminated a path for you guys, but you all insist on disregarding the consequences and persist in carrying on. At this point, Wu Rong still wants to mislead the masses for his personal gains. Deserves to die!"

  The main hall was dead silent. Nobody dared to come out to refute Qi Hai.

  Qi Hai continued, "We'll establish the Endless Alliance here today. Ning Yixian will assume the post of Alliance Head. Qin Hongtao and Jing Xuan will hold the posts of Vice-Alliance Heads. Me killing Wu Rong doesn't mean to force you all to join the alliance. If you feel that you can only care about yourselves and disregard other people, feel free to not join. But your sect must withdraw to the extreme northern lands!"

  Qi Hai's tone suddenly eased up, and he said, "Establishing the Endless Alliance doesn't mean that you all have to forsake your sects' legacies. If the Endless World can tide over this calamity, you can still establish your own factions later on to inherit your Dao teachings. If the Endless World is annexed, everything is naturally for naught. But I'll say the nasty things first; if anyone dares to be half-hearted, Wu Rong is the best example! Alright, this old man will talk only until here. Good luck to everybody."

  Hearing Qi Hai's words, everyone finally set their minds at ease.

  As long as they could preserve their sect's legacies, everything could naturally be discussed.

  But these people also knew that after the war, how many sects among them that could still preserve their legacies was something up in the air.

  However, just as Qi Hai said, the Fierce Gale World bore down menacingly. If the Endless World completely fell into the enemy's hands, their sects would no longer exist as well.

  Furthermore, if they were to shrink back at this time, they would become the common target for scorn. Even if their sect was not destroyed, migrating to the extreme northern lands was a tremendous blow to the sect as well.

  The essence energy in the extreme northern lands was sparse and completely could not support martial artists' cultivation.

  Going there, what kind of future would the sect still have?

  "Old Hai, my Sacred Fire Sect is willing to join the alliance." At this time, a Ninth Level Divine Traversing Realm was the first to come forward to express his stance.

  With someone taking the lead, the others all acceded to it one after another. This matter of establishing the alliance was finally settled.

  "The specific arrangements, Ning Yixian, the three of you are in charge of handling. Set the condition: those who made contributions will be rewarded, and those at fault will be punished. Every order must be executed without fail!" Qi Hai instructed.

  Ning Yixian trio clasped their hands and answered, "Yes!"

  These three people had also not seen Qi Hai take action for a long time. They were shocked to the core seeing it today too.

  Before the three of them became renowned, Qi Hai was already at the peak Divine Traversing Realm. His strength at present had indeed already reached an unfathomable degree.

  Qi Hai nodded his head and carried on, "In addition, it's considered a coincidence too. The Vast Heaven Pagoda is going to open very soon. This time, your three sects shouldn't treasure your own belongings too highly. As long as they are martial artists under the skeletal age of 60, including those itinerant cultivators, they can all enter it. Maybe seizing this opportunity, we can unearth some promising talents."

  Ning Yixian trio exchanged glances. Although they were somewhat hesitant, they also knew that now was not the time to be miserly, and they could only nod and agree.

  Seeing Ning Yixian trio nod their heads, those sect leaders were all extremely excited, putting Ye Yuan at a loss.

  Looks l
ike this Vast Heaven Pagoda was some remarkable place that was monopolized by the Three Sects all along.

  Opening to the public this time, the other sects should be able to obtain considerable benefits.

  Ye Yuan could not help admiring Qi Hai inwardly in his heart too. Although this old man was rather unruly, he was experienced and shrewd with age after all. This tactic of a large stick in one hand and a carrot in the other was executed rather magnificently.

  These sect leaders obtaining sufficient benefits would naturally put aside some prejudices and risk their lives to fight the enemy.

  Except, after such a sharing of resources, if the Endless World could tide over this catastrophe, the Northern Domain's setup would probably undergo a titanic change.

  . . . . . .

  In a side hall, Qi Hai and Ye Yuan sat facing each other.

  "Little Brother Ye, your talent surpasses the Endless World too much. Your background . . . probably isn't simple, right?" Qi Hai looked at Ye Yuan with scorching eyes and asked.

  The specific matters, Qi Hai handed them to Nine Yixian they all to do. But he pulled Ye Yuan inside a side hall and asked about Ye Yuan's origins right away.

  Ye Yuan knew that the things a Realmlord of a world understood was far from comparable to others.

  Many things in front of other people would be over just by fooling them a little. But in front of Qi Hai, wanting to casually brush him off probably would not work.

  "Senior Qi Hai . . ."

  "If Little Brother Ye doesn't mind, just call me elder brother will do. If the Endless World can make it through this disaster, maybe Elder Brother, I, still have areas where I still need to rely on Little Brother Ye for!" Qi Hai cut off Ye Yuan's words and said with a smile.

  Ye Yuan smiled and said, "I accept deferentially than to stand on ceremony! Elder Brother Qi Hai should be the Endless World's Realmlord, right?"

  Qi Hai was not surprised. Instead, he chortled and said, "Haha! Little Brother Ye's horizons are really high! To actually even know about Realmlords! That's right. This old man is indeed this Endless World's Realmlord!"

  Ye Yuan nodded and said smilingly, "Younger Brother's Master is indeed not somebody from the Endless World. It's just that due to master's orders, it's not convenient for Younger Brother to express some things. Elder Brother, please forgive me."

  Qi Hai did not reveal a surprised look. Ye Yuan's such heaven-defying talent, it was absolutely impossible for the Endless World to give birth to.

  Ye Yuan naturally would not tell him that he possessed a body that had gone a rebirth either. Although people of the Divine Realm rarely descended to the Lower Realms, it was not unheard either.

  Taking in a disciple in the Lower Realms was actually not something of a big deal.

  Chapter 525. Vast Heaven Pagoda Inheritance |

  "Heh heh, looks like Little Brother's fortunes run deep, to actually obtain a Divine Realm major power's good graces. Truly the envy of Elder Brother, me!"

  Even though Qi Hai was the Endless World's Realmlord, in the eyes of the Divine Realm's major powers, he was still just an impoverished person.

  Ye Yuan's talent was so monstrous. In Qi Hai's view, his master was bound to be a character in the Divine Realm too.

  Of course, as for how powerful, Qi Hai did not have a clue either.

  Although he knew some matters related to the Divine Realm, his knowledge was very limited.

  "Elder Brother already has half a foot stepped into the Boundless Realm. The day of ascending to the Divine Realm is not far off too. Why is there a need to be envious of me?" Ye Yuan said with a smile.

  "This distance of half a step is as hard as ascending to the heaven! If I had the confidence, I'd have long gone to cross the heavenly tribulation. Why would I remain in the Endless World, idling my time away bitterly? I lingered in the Endless Forest these few years just for the sake of finding that feeble thread of hope too!" Qi Hai sighed emotionally.

  To the Lower Realms' martial artists, the ascension through heavenly tribulation was a life and death juncture.

  What Qi Hai had to face was not just the heavenly tribulation of Boundless Realm, there was also the boundary pressure when shattering the void of the small world.

  Superimposing the two, ordinary martial artists simply could not survive it.

  Unless it was people who were heaven-defyingly talented or those who had immense good luck, the success rate was truly very low.

  Hence, breaking through to the Boundless Realm in a small world like this Endless World was actually even harder than the Divine Realm!

  And a small world's essence energy and resources were simply a heavenly chasm-like difference compared to the Divine Realm. This increased the difficulty of martial artists ascending even more.

  "Elder Brother doesn't need to lose heart. Heavenly Dao will always leave a ray of hope. As long as Senior doesn't give up, you'll eventually be able to find this ray of hope someday," Ye Yuan consoled him.

  Actually, with Ye Yuan's capabilities, wanting to aid Qi Hai to pull through the heavenly tribulation was not something hard.

  It was just that the days he spent with Qi Hai was few, and he did not have much understanding of this person at all. He naturally would not say such sincere words to a mere acquaintance.

  Furthermore, if he helped Qi Hai ascend now, the Endless World would basically not have hope anymore.

  Without the need for Zhao Tianyin to come, just the Shangguan Family and those few first-rate families could destroy the Endless World.

  In the future, if he confirmed that Qi Hai was worth trusting, giving him a hand then was not late either.

  "Heh, then I'll thank Little Brother for your blessings! If Elder Brother, I, can ascend to the Divine Realm by chance in the future, I hope that Little Brother can look after me well!" Qi Hai said with a smile.

  The reason why he was so courteous to Ye Yuan was actually because of this.

  Qi Hai had drifted with the tides in the Endless World for so many years. Although he did not have great confidence regarding crossing the heavenly tribulation, he more or less had some too.

  If he passed the heavenly tribulation by chance in the future, without anyone looking after him when he reached the Divine Realm, it was very hard to keep going.

  This point, Zhao Tianyin knew, Qi Hai naturally knew as well.

  Ye Yuan was curious and asked, "Why does Elder Brother Qi Hai say that? Our Endless World should belong to a certain faction too, right? When Elder Brother, you, ascend to the Divine Realm in the future, there will naturally be that faction coming to receive you, no?"

  There were countless Lower Realms' small worlds, but they were not ownerless objects.

  These small worlds more or less had countless intricate ties with the Divine Realm.

  For Qi Hai to be able to become the Realmlord, it was not because he was the Endless World's strongest person, but he was a person designated by some faction in the Divine Realm.

  In his previous life, the Medicine King Hall, this super major faction that Ji Qingyun was at, had jurisdiction over countless planes in the lower realms too.

  It was just that these affairs, Ye Yuan never concerned himself with. It was all Ji Canglan's responsibility.

  However, even though Ye Yuan had come to the Endless World for some time, he did not know which Divine Realm faction this Endless World belonged to.

  But the Divine Realm's various major factions all would not bother about the Lower Realms' affairs. Because descending from the Divine Realm was exceedingly difficult. Even in the Divine Realm, there were very few who could accomplish this as well. Yue Mengli being able to come down was definitely by using Bright Moon City's strength.

  It was also precisely because of this reason that Qi Hai ascertained that the person behind Ye Yuan was definitely very powerful.

  These factions would mostly have special channels of communication with the lower planes. This point was much easier.

  And the inheritance of a
Realmlord was also the small world's internal affairs under most circumstances. As long as the previous Realmlord chose a successor and report it to the Divine Realm to be approved, it would do.

  But Qi Hai said with a bitter smile, "Actually . . . I don't know which faction in the Divine Realm the Endless World belongs to either. In reality, since the start from the previous Realmlord, we lost contact with the Divine Realm completely. Roughly around . . . a thousand years already?"

  Ye Yuan was stupefied. He did not think that there was actually such a thing.

  Seems like the Divine Realm faction which the Endless World belonged to might have suffered some major unforeseen event.

  "Alright then. Elder Brother's matters, I've noted it down. It's just that I don't dare to promise you at this time. After all, after that master of mine imparted to me knowledge, he brushed his hands off and no longer bothered about me again."

  But Ye Yuan's promise that was not a promise sounded like a heavenly melody to Qi Hai. He said elatedly, "That's of course, that's of course! Oh, right, within half a month, the Vast Heaven Pagoda will be opened. At that time, you must go and take part. Perhaps you might have some unexpected gains too?"

  "Oh? The Vast Heaven Pagoda? What's that?"

  Ye Yuan was still really curious about this Vast Heaven Pagoda. Something that could visibly move so many Divine Traversing Realm experts was bound to not be an ordinary thing.

  "The Vast Heaven Pagoda is an inheritance mystic realm; It is communally owned by the Three Sects and Wu Fang City. This Vast Heaven Pagoda has a total of nine levels. Every level passed, one would obtain unimaginable benefits. It's a superb place that the Three Sects and Wu Fang City foster their young disciples at. Ever since discovering the Vast Heaven Pagoda, countless powerhouses walked out from there in the Endless World! Back then, the Grand Yan True Sect's Forefather, Grand Yan True Lord, walked out from there too. You don't know how terrifying Grand Yan True Lord's strength was back then. Even though he wasn't the Realmlord, in front of him, the Realmlord at that time wasn't even fit to carry his shoes! Hence, these four major factions have been monopolizing the Vast Heaven Pagoda all along, not allowing the other factions to dip their fingers in. The Vast Heaven Pagoda opens up once every ten years. Half a month later just happens to be the ten year date, which so happened as well." Qi Hai's words poured out smoothly.
