Medical Master-Chapter 1843 - A Draw!

Chapter 1843 A Draw!

“Splash…”

As the two streams of energy ran into each other.

The whole world seemed to be shaking, and the earth kept trembling. The energy Qi fluctuated wildly in all directions and swept through the world, filling every space with a destructive aura.

The golden and black energy streams bumped against each other.

Fang Qiu stood on the ground, releasing golden energy from his hand. It rushed out wildly to fight against the enormous dragon of black energy descending from the sky.

The two kinds of energy frenziedly dashed against each other.

“Boom, boom, boom…”

Explosive sounds kept coming from the place they touched.

With every explosion, a layer of powerful energy Qi would emerge and ripple in the surrounding space like sound waves.

This kind of energy Qi was much fiercer than those from the previous collisions!

Wherever the ripples of energy Qi passed, they shattered the incomparably rock-hard yellow ground.

Afterward…

“Boom!”

After a few more attacks, the two kinds of energy could no longer keep balance. They were entangled together and swept up into the sky with considerable momentum.

The energy exploded.

The explosion of two energy flows burst out a considerable force. Instantly, it knocked all the broken stones within a radius of several hundred kilometers on the ground into the sky.

The next moment…

“Bang!”

The energy storm rising and twisting in the sky exploded.

A ball of dazzling and terrifying energy burst out and spread out in all directions. Like a massive black hole in the universe, it swallowed all the power.

The black hole expanded continuously.

Fang Qiu and Duan, whose power was entirely exhausted, were also drawn into it.

Just as Fang Qiu took out the Mysterious Realm’s key and was about to crush it…

Duan, the first to be sucked into the black hole, was torn into pieces by the horrible energy and vanished before Fang Qiu.

As the shadow disappeared…

All of a sudden, everything in front of Fang Qiu darkened.

Afterward…

He opened his eyes.

The surroundings before him changed.

He was standing before the cave in the Sword Sect’s forbidden area.

No movement or change happened here. It looked as if everything Fang Qiu had experienced in the Mysterious Realm had never happened.

The next moment…

“Phew, phew…”

Fang Qiu was puffing hard.

What he had just experienced was gone. But still, he could feel his energy had been completely consumed. There was not even a bit left.

“Here he is.”

The three elders had been waiting outside. The moment they saw John Doe, they went up to him.

Just then…

“Clack!”

A cracking sound was suddenly heard.

Before reaching John Doe, the three elders suddenly paused and turned around, looking toward the cave. A basketball-sized space appeared on the rock face. In it was a piece of jade as big as a goose egg. The breaking sound was coming from the white jade.

As the sound came to them…

It also sobered up Fang Qiu, who had been panting heavily. He turned his head and looked over.

“What’s this?”

Three elders gaped in astonishment at the broken white jade. Seeing them like this, Fang Qiu stepped forward and asked curiously.

“This is Mysterious Realm’s core.”

Elder Qian immediately pointed to the white jade when John Doe stepped over and explained, “The Mysterious Realm is natural. But it needs the energy to keep Duan’s shadow in it. A lot more energy was needed to activate the shadow. This white jade is the source of energy.”

“But could such a large piece of jade only support one battle?”

Fang Qiu was so surprised.

This piece of white jade undoubtedly belonged to the mysterious jade.

Fang Qiu was very clear about the energy stored in this kind of jade. A piece of jade the size of a ping-pong ball could support a Half-step Guru puppet. This jade stone was at least five times larger than a ping-pong ball.

It seemed to be a jade piece of great purity.

But such a precious piece of jade could only support one battle?

In that case, it was extravagant.

“No.”

Elder Qian shook his head and said, “The shattering of the jade represents the shadow in the Mysterious Realm had exerted all his strength. There is no residue!”

“Oh?”

Hearing this, Fang Qiu immediately nodded with understanding.

The collision he had just experienced was more terrifying than any other collisions he had experienced. The black hole after the explosion of energy brought him a sense of hopelessness. Luckily, the shadow was torn apart and disappeared. Otherwise, Fang Qiu would have crushed the Mysterious Realm’s key in the first place to escape. Or, he would have died!

It was such a tremendous collision. It would be frightening if it didn’t represent the whole strength of the Nirvana Saint Lord a hundred years ago.

“By the way, what’s going on inside? Did you force Duan’s shadow to use all its strength?”

In shock…

The three elders immediately turned around and stared at John Doe.

“I think so?”

Fang Qiu thought for a moment and answered.

“What’s the result of the battle? Who won in the end?”

Elder Qian asked expectantly.

“There was no winner.”

Fang Qiu gave a wry smile and said, “If you require a result, we drew!”

“The battle ended in a draw?”

Hearing what John Doe said, the three elders were visibly shocked. Then, they were full of excitement.

“Let’s skip the details of your battle inside. Please tell me: do you still have the key to the Mysterious Realm?”

Elder Yuan took a step forward. Walking up to Fang Qiu, he asked expectantly.

But Fang Qiu didn’t speak.

With a flip of his wrist, the key to the Mysterious Realm appeared in his palm.

The three elders saw the key to the Mysterious Realm.

They were thrilled.

“Good, very good.”

Elder Qu always kept a straight face and didn’t talk much. But even he couldn’t help cheering and slapped Fang Qiu on the shoulder with a particularly excited look.

“Haha, it is here! Finally, I found it.”

Elder Yuan also tingled with excitement.

“You live up to your reputation as that senior’s disciple. You bring us hope!”

Elder Qian smiled and said, “You still hold the key to the Mysterious Realm. That means you did not voluntarily leave Mysterious Realm. Instead, it pushed you out when it collapsed.”

“This Mysterious Realm is natural. Originally, it contained a large amount of Qi of Heaven and Earth. However, all of it was transferred to provide energy to Duan’s shadow. In addition, with this jade stone’s support, the Mysterious Realm and Duan’s shadow existed.”

“There is only one possible explanation for the Mysterious Realm’s breakdown. When Duan’s shadow put forth its best efforts, it exhausted the energy from Mysterious Realm and the jade. The Mysterious Realm shattered when it could no longer hold on.”

With this…

Elder Qian stared at John Doe with satisfaction and said, “That is to say, you appeared because Mysterious Realm had broken, and Duan’s shadow had dissipated!”

“It seems that you’ve won.”

Elder Qu drew a conclusion, though he sounded a little confused.

“No.”

Fang Qiu shook his head and said, “If Mysterious Realm hadn’t shattered or collapsed a few seconds later, I would have used the key to the Mysterious Realm. Otherwise, I would have died in it.”

When he finished speaking…

The three elders were stunned. But soon, they became even more shocked and excited.

John Doe’s words revealed a lot of information.

He said he might have died in there. It meant the shadow in Mysterious Realm must have been killed before John Doe emerged.

John Doe had defeated Duan, Nirvana Saint Lord a hundred years ago!

Of course…

The three elders had lived for hundreds of years, so they didn’t lose all bearings in a moment of excitement. They knew very well that the match must have ended in a draw since John Doe said he didn’t defeat the shadow.

Even if the shadow dissipated in the end and John Doe was still alive…

After all…

It was a battle that John Doe had experienced in person.

They had no idea what had happened in this battle.

However…

The three elders tacitly didn’t ask Fang Qiu for the details.

They couldn’t ask John Doe to say everything that had happened inside, including all their moves and counterattacks, right?

What was the point of knowing all the details?

What they needed was only the result.

“What a pity. I was so close.”

Fang Qiu sighed softly and said, “If I had broken through to the Two-Flower Core Realm, the result might have been different.”

“You have done good enough.”

With a smile, Elder Qian said, “You are even younger than the shadow in the Mysterious Realm. It’s amazing for you to achieve this at such a young age. Though you just managed a hard-earned draw, you are the only one who could be as good as Nirvana Saint Lord in the past hundreds of years.”

“Indeed.”

Elder Yuan also sighed with emotion. “There has never been such an impressive talent in a hundred years. We have guarded this Mysterious Realm for a hundred years. Eventually, we found a person who can bring hope to Huaxia Wulin.”

“Keep practicing!”

Elder Qu patted John Doe on the shoulder, saying, “You tied with the young version of Nirvana Saint Lord one hundred years ago. Back then, he had just achieved Two-Flower Core Formation. Later, his strength improved by leaps and bounds. He became Wulin’s formidable enemy. It has been decades since he was seriously injured in that unprecedented catastrophe. No one knows how his recovery is going. You are no match for him if he has recovered to his original peak state, let alone he might have made progress.” ｂｅ𝚍𝚗ｏｖｅ𝚕．𝚗𝚎𝚝

“Don’t overestimate yourself. With your current strength, you will die even more miserably than an ant trying to stop a cart from advancing if you fight against Nirvana Saint Lord at his peak!”

Although his words sounded unpleasant…

Fang Qiu knew it made sense.

After all, his rival was just a shadow a hundred years ago. There must be a huge gap between the real Saint Lord’s strength and that of his shadow.

Not to mention that…

Even the old master was seriously injured. Could he bear three moves from the old master now?

Fang Qiu highly doubted that.

“Stop thinking too much.”

Elder Qian said with a smile, “Anyway, you are the only one who has brought us hope in the past hundred years. If you fail the first time, you can try again and again. Fight again in three days.”

“Okay.”

Fang Qiu immediately nodded in agreement.

He was eager to fight with the shadow in the Mysterious Realm again. Combating against such a top-level rival would benefit him a lot!

“Let’s go. We’ll come back in three days.”

After saying that, Elder Qian took Fang Qiu back to the back mountain.
