Urban Extraordinary Immortal Doctor

Wu De did not comply with Zhuge Lian and Xiao Ying’s wishes to shatter the jade token and summon Fang Bai.

According to Wu De, Fang Bai might be millions or even billions of miles away now. If the jade token were shattered, Fang Bai would think something urgent was happening with Wu De and rush over anxiously.

Doing so would not only exhaust Fang Bai’s substantial immortal power but might also affect his efforts to find other immortals from the lower realm.

"Fang Bai mentioned when he left Purple Wind Gorge that we should not shatter the jade token to summon him unless it is a critical life-or-death matter that we can’t resolve on our own, otherwise it would be a waste of his time. And right now... there doesn’t seem to be anything urgent, so..."

Seeing Zhuge Lian and Xiao Ying listening intently, Wu De knew he had convinced them and continued with a smile: "Perhaps we shouldn’t call him here?"

Though Zhuge Lian and Xiao Ying were somewhat disappointed, they understood Wu De’s reasoning was sound. If they insisted Wu De shatter the jade token to summon Fang Bai, Fang Bai would not express any grievance or blame upon seeing them, but in the eyes of other immortals, it would appear capricious and senseless.

"Then... let’s keep the jade token..."

After years of longing to see Fang Bai, Zhuge Lian now faced the possibility of meeting him but still couldn’t, which naturally left her feeling indescribably aggrieved, and she spoke with a choked voice.

Xiao Ying’s eyes were slightly red as she held Zhuge Lian’s hand in silent solidarity.

Wu De’s eyes shifted as he said, "Fang Bai now hopes for the strength of all Emperor’s Palace disciples to improve quickly, to aid him in the future when rebuilding the Emperor’s Palace and seeking revenge on the eight top-tier forces. So, why don’t the four of us train together in the Immortal Realm? If we’re lucky, and all become Immortal Emperors or Empresses someday, Fang Bai would surely be delighted."

Hearing this, Zhuge Lian and Xiao Ying’s mood improved, silently resolving to cultivate well and contribute to Fang Bai’s efforts to rebuild the Emperor’s Palace and avenge against the eight apex Immortal Emperors.

Indeed, this is likely what Fang Bai most wishes to see.

The four immortals, including Wu De, had already given up pursuing the Emperor Elixir, yet unexpectedly, after flying thousands of miles with tens of thousands of immortals chasing, the Emperor Elixir suddenly turned back, heading towards them.

"The Emperor Elixir... It’s coming back!"

Great Sage Sun pointed excitedly at the Emperor Elixir, speeding swiftly through the air.

"Xiao Lian, Xiao Ying, Old Sun, let’s form the Four Corners Infinite Array and see if we can trap the Emperor Elixir!"

Wu De decisively transmitted his voice to Zhuge Lian, Xiao Ying, and Great Sage Sun.

The Four Corners Infinite Array, one of the Emperor Rank Formations Fang Bai taught, was exceedingly powerful. Any four ascended immortals could come together to form it.

Once this formation is established, it magnifies the combined power of the four participating immortals multiple times, serving as a formidable weapon against formidable adversaries.

This means that two Ninth Grade Immortal King Realm and two Immortal Emperor Realm experts at the initial stage could easily handle an intermediate stage Immortal Emperor Realm expert with this formation.

The four immortals, Wu De and company, swiftly altered their positions and occupied the four corners, forming a formation seemingly loose yet tightly knit.

As soon as the Four Corners Infinite Array was established, the Emperor Elixir rushed into its midst with a swift "swish."

Seeing the Emperor Elixir enter the formation, the four were delighted and immediately initiated the Immortal Array.

Though they weren’t confident about trapping the Emperor Elixir, strangely enough, once the Emperor Elixir entered the formation, it settled as tamely as a domesticated Immortal Beast, hovering motionless in the center.

The four immortals were both amazed and delighted, mixed with some bafflement.

Cautiously, Wu De extended his hand to gently grasp the Emperor Elixir.

Zhuge Lian, Xiao Ying, and Great Sage Sun widened their eyes, hearts beating anxiously, watching as Wu De took hold of the Emperor Elixir.

"Oh..."

"Ha..."

"Ah..."

With the Emperor Elixir in hand, they couldn’t help but cheer aloud in unison.

Yet, the next moment, they saw countless immortals surrounding them, eyes filled with desirous greed fixed upon Wu De, who held the Emperor Elixir.

Among them, several high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts eyed fiercely, itching to forcibly seize the Emperor Elixir from him.

Zhuge Lian and the others instantly grew tense, brandishing Immortal Artifacts as if facing a grand battle.

Yet, should thousands of immortals rush forward, they wouldn’t stand a chance, likely torn to shreds instantly.

"Hand over the Emperor Elixir, and I’ll spare your lives!"

A high-ranking Immortal Emperor Realm expert stepped forward, threatening Wu De with a menacing gesture.

As he moved, the other Immortal Emperor Realm experts also threatened Wu De.

Wu De forced himself to maintain composure and with a troubled look, said, "There’s only one Emperor Elixir; if you all want it, whom should I give it to?"

The high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts exchanged glances without speaking.

"How about... you all have a match against each other, and whoever proves strongest can have the Emperor Elixir, how about that?"

Wu De suggested.

Those high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm experts, having lived over a thousand years, were far too shrewd to be provoked by such a petty trick. They quickly reached a consensus.

One high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm expert proposed, "Drop the Emperor Elixir, and we’ll pursue it by our own abilities! Whomever catches it will be the rightful owner! That way, it’s fairest!"

Wu De shook his head, "I painstakingly captured it; how can I let it go? An unrivaled treasure of the Immortal Realm is obtained by those who are destined. My acquiring this Emperor Elixir proves it is my destiny... Therefore, fellow immortals, please abandon your pursuit!"

"Keep babbling, and I’ll kill you with one palm!"

One high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm expert’s eyes gleamed coldly, Killing Qi rising as he slowly approached with his palm raised.

Despite Wu De’s immense reluctance, he knew he wasn’t one defiant enough to choose death over surrender. Seeing the opponent ready to strike, he thought preserving life was paramount and prepared to release his hold on the Emperor Elixir.

At that very moment, a long roar was heard, accompanied by a flame-like streak of blood-red light tracing across the sky as if piercing through the void, appearing instantly before Wu De and the immortals.

"Blood... Blood-Drinking Mad Blade? Haha, Fang Bai is here!"

Upon hearing the roar and witnessing the blood glow streaking across the heavenly order, Wu De’s face burst into joyous exclamation.

"Swish!"

The blood-red light flashed before the high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm expert attempting to strike Wu De, piercing through his Qi Sea in an instant.

In the next moment, with a faint "boom," the high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm expert’s body transformed into a cloud of blood mist.

At this point, the surrounding thousands of immortals finally saw that the blood-red glow, which instantly rendered the high-rank Immortal Emperor Realm expert lifeless, was a Blood Blade radiating intense Evil Qi.
