Urban Supreme Medical Saint-Chapter 1830 - 1826: Battle of Wits!

The elderly figures surrounding Osiris dropped to their knees upon his arrival, chanting fervently, "Lord Osiris!"

To these people, Osiris was their faith.

But at this moment, Osiris’s eyes burned with fury. His withered arm stretched forward, revealing a crystal ball in his grasp. Inside the crystal ball appeared an ongoing scene from the Sacred Gate.

Scene after scene! Shocking and appalling!

Osiris clenched his fist tightly. A swirl of dark mist enveloped his entire body, and above his head floated a golden phantom of a scale!

This was his birthright magic artifact!

The scale that governs life, death, and sin!

If he decrees someone as evil, they must perish!

If he recognizes someone as righteous, they may live forever!

Gazing at the images within the crystal ball, his voice rasped: "To think... all those under my command, gone. Every single one dead at the hands of that young man! It seems that boy is far trickier than I anticipated. But..."

Osiris’s voice suddenly cut off, followed by an eerie chuckle!

"But... that boy will never imagine—I never intended for those people to return alive!

Ren Feifan! Killing them means you willingly accept my curse! The nightmare has only just begun! Enjoy it to your heart’s content!"

A bone-chilling laughter echoed through the abandoned factory.

...

Meanwhile, outside the Sacred Gate.

Ren Feifan had finished the battle and immediately rushed to Big Huang. Closing in, he initially thought Big Huang was injured, but upon closer inspection, he realized that the symptoms before him were not injuries at all.

Two reddish lights emerged from Big Huang’s body.

One was his innate blood-light, while the other was the eerie glow from the Red Snake.

The two lights clashed ceaselessly, producing violent sparks!

It seemed more like a possession battle for the body! Just like when the Demon King once tried to possess him!

The Red Snake intended to possess Big Huang?

Though Ren Feifan wanted to help Big Huang, he knew very well that under such circumstances, intervening would only worsen the situation.

If the possession were disrupted, Big Huang would undoubtedly perish!

Thus, everything would depend on Big Huang’s own determination and strength!

Big Huang let out agonizing cries of pain, seemingly in great distress. His eyes flickered with a trace of fury.

His savage fangs scraped the ground relentlessly as though trying to break them off!

Yet, despite thousands of scratches on the ground, his fangs remained wholly intact.

Moments later, Big Huang stood upright and charged at Ren Feifan, ferociously like a rabid dog!

Ren Feifan’s face shifted dramatically. Without hesitation, he formed a hand seal and conjured a barrier before him.

The barrier expanded in all directions, then suddenly contracted, trapping Big Huang within a confined space.

Looking at Big Huang’s current state, Ren Feifan felt a pang of sorrow. He sighed deeply and said, "Big Huang, I don’t want it to come to this, but your fate rests in your own hands now. If the possession fails, I won’t let the enemy succeed either—I’ll end your life with my own hands!"

Big Huang seemed to understand Ren Feifan’s words. He nodded faintly, closed his eyes, and began emitting arcs of lightning from his body, which surged outward violently!

Simultaneously, a potent medicinal aroma began permeating from within Big Huang!

The two red lights visibly weakened!

There was hope!

Ren Feifan remembered the Heaven and Earth Overlord Elixir that Big Huang had consumed long ago. When used on humans, the elixir had boundless effects!

But when used on beasts, its effects were definitely long-lasting!

Big Huang hadn’t fully absorbed the medicinal properties yet!

Now was the perfect moment to harness them during the possession struggle.

While observing Big Huang, Ren Feifan failed to notice that the corpses which had earlier dissolved into blood mist were coalescing into faintly visible black shadows!

The shadows were pale in color, hidden within the air.

Three shadows took shape, their faces twisted—some sinister, others eerie.

Ordinary cultivators would be entirely incapable of detecting them with the naked eye.

This was Osiris’s curse power.

The three shadows phased through several Sacred Gate disciples’ bodies. The disciples felt an eerie chill, staggering to the ground unable to stand.

They fell unconscious.

Ren Feifan heard the commotion and saw the Sacred Gate disciples collapse nearby. His expression shifted, and he strode into the Sacred Gate. He placed his fingers on the pulse of one disciple.

Pulse, normal.

Breathing, normal.

Three souls and seven spirits, normal.

"This..."

Ren Feifan furrowed his brows, sensing that something was amiss.

At that moment, suddenly! A surge of danger hit him like a tidal wave.

Ren Feifan felt his entire body tense!

It was exceedingly uncomfortable!

Goosebumps erupted all over his skin!

Something was definitely behind him!

Ren Feifan whirled around abruptly but saw... nothing!

Yet the feeling persisted.

Meanwhile, several miles away, Osiris conjured a nine-headed serpent!

The nine-headed serpent was remarkably small but utterly ferocious!

Muttering under his breath, Osiris closed his eyes. Something seemed to writhe beneath the skin of his aged face.

"Cycle of life and death, souls of the deceased, curse powers—I, Osiris, claiming the mantle of the twenty-seventh true body, hereby execute the right of cursing!"

The nine-headed serpent suddenly floated into the air, growing larger and larger until it reached a height of over ten meters!

Its immense form shattered the roof of the abandoned factory!

At this moment, each disciple brought by Osiris paled in shock!

They knew that once the nine-headed serpent was unleashed, it meant Lord Osiris was truly serious!

The serpent’s body exuded a sinister black mist, which pierced through layers of clouds and headed straight toward the Sacred Gate.

At the Sacred Gate’s exterior, Ren Feifan was already sensing atmospheric changes.

He smirked coldly. "Never-ending hauntings—do you honestly believe I, Huaxia’s guardian, cannot suppress you?"

Ren Feifan’s eyes gleamed with a sharp light as he activated the Gazing Energy Technique.

Instantly, everything around him was laid bare.

Ren Feifan saw three faintly visible shadows before him. Their eyes were closed, and their hands reached ceaselessly toward him.

"Hmph! Osiris, so this is your manipulation from miles away? A paltry trick—and you dare disgrace yourself before me!"

As his words fell, Ren Feifan opened both palms. Two blazing flames emerged from his palms!

Nine-Turn Heart Flame!

Sky Demon Yin Fire!

This time, Ren Feifan didn’t use the Thousand Spirits Fusion Fire Technique to merge the flames!

He hurled the two flames directly outward!

In an instant, the flames erupted wildly, forming enormous blazes that surged skyward, consuming the three shadows!

Engulfing everything!

"Ke-ke-ke..." echoed continuously!

The sound carried immense agony, a punishment for the three shadows unbearable in its intensity!

Ordinary flames might be powerless against ancient curse energies!

But the spiritual fires of Huaxia were never ordinary! ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
