Divine Doctor from the Start of the Eye Mutation

Chapter 1988 - 1989: Someone Is Sabotaging

Ling Zhenfei said, "That's strange. Could it be that someone wants to sabotage?"

Ling Zhenfei's words suddenly shocked Lu Tao; this is indeed a very interesting question.

At this time, Murong Liuqing spoke, "Impossible, that Sealing Barrier was left by the Star Lord. What kind of power does the Star Lord have? How could it be destroyed by anyone?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Even if the Star Lord was powerful, they're long dead. It's been over a thousand years; who knows if the Star Lord's barrier still works? Or maybe over the years, someone has discovered the method and secret to breaking it."

Murong Liuqing said, "You're oversimplifying things. Don't say it's been a thousand years since the Star Lord died; even if it's been ten thousand years, just a strand of their Northern Spiritual Energy left behind would be enough to kill you."

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "I didn't expect that, Miss Murong, you're a staunch supporter of the Star Lord."

Murong Liuqing said, "The Star Lord is the savior of all humanity, everyone should be grateful for what they did for us back then."

Ling Zhenfei said, "We should indeed thank the Star Lord, but I'm curious, was everything the Star Lord did absolutely flawless? If it were, then why not completely seal off the Foreign Land Space?

If the Foreign Land Space were completely sealed, there wouldn't be this twenty-year war."

At this point, Lu Tao spoke, "The Star Lord made these decisions after careful consideration. If they had completely sealed off Xianling Mountain, the people on the other side of the Foreign Land would eventually find another place to attack us from.

If that happened, we who have grown too comfortable living here would be easily defeated. This space opening every twenty years is a method to motivate us to continually progress.

But the Star Lord didn't account for the rapid decrease in Northern Spiritual Energy on our side; nowadays, it's virtually impossible for anyone to cultivate to the Star Lord's level."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I've also heard about the Demon King's arrival. What's your take on this matter, senior?"

Lu Tao said, "Legend is just legend."

Murong Liuqing spoke then, "What legend? It's all true. The Demon King has already arrived in the Foreign Land, but their will hasn't been awakened yet.

If they awaken the Demon King's will, they will surely attack us, and we'll be in trouble. So, the most important task now is to find the Star Lord's Heavenly God Sword.

Then give the Heavenly God Sword to the right person, awaken the Star Lord's will, and then we'll be able to slay the Demon King, protecting everything here."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Why do things always sound so terrifying coming from the mouths of people from the Three Great Immortal Palaces? This is just a very ordinary matter.

How could it be so coincidental that the Demon King descends and we find the Heavenly God Sword as well? Why is the Demon King so unlucky, to be slain by the Heavenly God Sword upon arrival?"

Murong Liuqing's face turned a bit uncomfortable, saying, "You're really incorrigible, aren't you? We cultivators should exorcise demons to uphold justice. With the Demon King here, we should definitely think of ways to slay him."

Ling Zhenfei laughed and said, "The Demon King, someone with power comparable to the Star Lord. I don't know exactly what power the Star Lord had, but I imagine it's close to Divinity.

The Star Lord was at the Divinity level, so even if the Demon King is slightly weaker, they'd still be comparable. You say we Dawen Realm cultivators, who haven't even entered the gate of cultivation, should deal with such a powerful being—aren't you joking?"

Ling Zhenfei's words left Murong Liuqing speechless.

"I don't know about what you're saying; anyway, these rules were passed down by our seniors."

Ling Zhenfei curiously asked, "Miss Murong, you come from the Three Great Immortal Palaces, with strong roots, but I want to know, what is the highest level of power among your sect's seniors?"

Murong Liuqing pondered for a moment and said, "I heard my master say a patriarch from Wuliang Mountain once cultivated to the highest realm, reaching the Soul Control level."

Ling Zhenfei nodded and said, "Wuliang Mountain's strongest power from years ago was at the Soul Control level, but Soul Control is still two major realms and more than eighteen minor realms below Divinity.

Even if your patriarch challenged the Demon King across levels, they likely wouldn't be a match."

Ling Zhenfei's words left Murong Liuqing speechless again, unsure what to say.

Because this fundamentally contradicted all the education she received since childhood, at this moment, Murong Liuqing must have felt her inner resolve was hit with a thousand strikes, and she had no way to refute it.

Then Ling Zhenfei said, "I've always felt that going to the Foreign Land Space is just a conspiracy, as if reaching the Dawen Realm and not visiting the Foreign Land Space is a problem.

This is genuinely very strange. Like me, I'm living very well now, and the best idea is to live peacefully, so why go to the Foreign Land Space, such a strange place?

When I initially learned about the Foreign Land Space, I also heard many reasons why people go there.

Some say the Foreign Land Space is full of treasures, various valuables and Miraculous Elixirs.

I believe there might be medicinal materials there, but I don't believe there are many treasures there; in thousands of years, who knows how many people have searched through it.

If there were treasures, there wouldn't be a trace left, but things are just so strange.

Others claim the Foreign Land Space is for gaining knowledge, yet risking one's life to gain knowledge is such an absurd reason.

Ultimately, the reason was revealed; it turned out to be searching for the Heavenly God Sword, and finding the Heavenly God Sword was indeed to confront the reborn Demon King. It's truly unbelievable."

Murong Liuqing said, "There are too many things in this world that defy logic; I'm too lazy to explain them to you."

At this time, Lu Tao said, "I think searching for the Heavenly God Sword is true, but whether there's a descending Demon King, I don't know."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Today someone else touched the Barrier again, making me very suspicious of this affair."

Lu Tao said, "Young minds are active, indeed. You can think of so much, which shows you're different from others. I'm old now, and I've been to the Foreign Land Space.

The remaining matters no longer concern me. If you're doubtful, you should definitely go have a look yourself."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I agreed to Wuliang Mountain about going to the Foreign Land Space; part of it was due to these considerations."

Murong Liuqing said, "Really making trouble for no reason."

Ling Zhenfei said, "This isn't making trouble for no reason. The Three Great Immortal Palaces seem peaceful on the surface, but there are too many hidden matters."

Murong Liuqing countered, "What matters could the Three Great Palaces possibly have?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Do I even need to say? Of course, the Three Great Palaces have one set of rules on the surface and another behind the scenes."
