The Extraordinary Urban God of Medicine
Chapter 1377 - Chapter 1377 Chapter 1377 A Night Raid on the Imperial Palace

Chapter 1377: Chapter 1377: A Night Raid on the Imperial Palace! Chapter 1377: Chapter 1377: A Night Raid on the Imperial Palace! The eldest son was indeed powerful and tyrannical, launching an intimidating attack as soon as he made his move, turning lifespan numbers into a divine fist, and instantly sent the Sword Immortal Emperor flying!

The Sword Immortal Emperor coughed up blood and fell to the ground, struggling to get up with his face smeared with blood streaks, looking extremely miserable.

Indeed, within the Formation City, not to mention attacking, even the defense of the Sword Immortal Emperor was greatly weakened. His body was as fragile as paper, and one strike left him injured.

However, the eldest son did indeed show some mercy, and he did not directly kill the Sword Immortal Emperor.

“You~you~you~~” The eyes of the Sword Immortal Emperor were filled with venomous resentment, but also mixed with shock and fear, as well as some visible relief; thus, he could not continue his harsh words. At this time, his life was of utmost importance after all.

Other treasure hunters looked at the eldest son with anger and fear, with an air of daring anger but not speaking out.

“Big brother! You! You’re too disrespectful to me! In my mansion, you injure my follower at will! You! You!” The twenty-seventh son trembled with rage.

“Hahaha~~” The eldest son was extremely pleased and felt the delicate sensation of controlling others’ life and death in his heart, and arrogantly said, “Twenty-seventh brother, what exactly are you? Since when did I need to give you face? This is what you get for refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit! These outsiders, they all belong to me! If you still intend to meddle, don’t blame me for not considering brotherly affection! Humph!”

After a pause, the eldest son glanced impatiently at Huang Xiaolong and the other treasure hunters, his eyes filled with a chilling command. “You little ants, don’t try to test my patience! Listen well, I will give you one last chance. I will count to three, and if you still refuse to kneel and submit, then I will forcefully strip away your longevity and let you burn out directly!”

“One~~~!” The eldest son indeed started to count.

All the treasure hunters turned their helpless gazes towards Huang Xiaolong!

The twenty-seventh son looked at Huang Xiaolong with confusion as he was out of options.

Here, no one was a match for the eldest son!

Lifespan is king!

Huang Xiaolong’s eyes rolled around a few times, and he suddenly interrupted the eldest son’s count. “Wait~~~”

The eldest son laughed wildly. “Hahaha~~ Finally willing to soften? Scared? That’s good, knowing the times makes a wise man~~ Now, all of you kneel down~~”

A glint flashed in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes as he suddenly said. “Eldest son, I happen to have a welcoming gift for you.”

“Oh? Good servant, good servant, you know how to please your master now? Hahaha~~~” The eldest son was complacently forgetful of his manners. “Alright, servant, what gift do you want to offer your master? Bring it out now.”

Huang Xiaolong unobtrusively took out a large stack of talismans from his chest.

“Talismans?” The eldest son was slightly startled.

The next moment!

Whoosh~whoosh~~whoosh~~whoosh whoosh whoosh~~~

The dense talismans, like snowflakes, and like a tornado, directly swirled towards the eldest son!

Even the conference hall was filled with talismans! The various talismans released by Huang Xiaolong! The talismans filled every inch of space!

It must be understood that the talismans stored by Huang Xiaolong in the netherworld were plentiful. Even though Huang Xiaolong did not personally draw the talismans, some of the demonic beings in netherworld, or the myriad of souls and spirits that knew how to draw them, did it for Huang Xiaolong every day.

With this wave, the talismans that Huang Xiaolong released included paralyzing talismans, weakening talismans, charm talismans, dizziness talismans, petrification talismans, and even some recently mimicked talismans that caused other beings to willingly offer their lifespan…

In short, it was a mish-mash of talismans, no matter how they were categorized, they all stuck to the eldest son in a flurry.

Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, the eldest son was enveloped by the ocean of talismans, his entire body, inside and out, covered with talismans!

He was like a gigantic cocoon!

Boom~~~!!!!

All the talismans detonated in an instant!

Various lights surged into the eldest son’s body all at once!

Huang Xiaolong was taking a gamble. He had to see if the eldest son could withstand these talismans.

If the talismans were ineffective against him, then Huang Xiaolong would be at a loss.

In the blink of an eye, the eldest son was somewhat dumbfounded…

He had not expected Huang Xiaolong to launch a sneak attack against him.

To put it bluntly, the eldest son was nothing more than a flower in a greenhouse, with virtually no combat experience. He couldn’t guard against a sneak attack.

Direct hit.

Under the erosion of so many talismans, the eldest son still maintained some clarity of mind, but his actions had become sluggish and weak.

Huang Xiaolong’s talismans had some effect. Although not significant, they managed to delay the eldest son’s murderous intent.

“You bunch of beasts! Damn beasts! How dare you ambush me! Very good! Very good! I will torture you to death! None of you will escape!” The eldest son roared furiously, condensing golden lifespan numbers into a fist above his head, and directly smashed it towards Huang Xiaolong.

However, his speed had indeed slowed down significantly.

Huang Xiaolong dodged while releasing the Light of Conversion from the netherworld!

This Light of Conversion also seemed to be affected by the Formation City’s formation, with its effect significantly weakened.

But at least, it still retained some of its converting power.

The Light of Conversion shone on the eldest son’s forehead and directly penetrated inside!

Countless voices of demonic chanting arose in the eldest prince’s mind.

Demons were persuading the eldest prince to submit, to become subservient.

To make the eldest prince repent.

“What–what–what is this! Ah!” The eldest prince, of course, could not be converted immediately; he roared in fury, but for the time being, he could no longer successfully punch out the numbers that represented longevity, his fists once finely crafted.

Thus, the light of conversion continued to shine upon the eldest prince.

Slow and steady like simmering heat.

Huang Xiaolong had set up soundproof seals in this council hall, ensuring that not a soul outside could perceive what was happening.

Converting the eldest prince was an arduous and lengthy process.

It took a full five days and five nights to finally convert the eldest prince completely!

“Servant greets Master,” said the eldest prince with a docile face, kneeling on both knees, the picture of servility.

Treasure hunters all let out a collective sigh of relief.

“Excellent technique! Brother Huang Xiaolong, you truly have a remarkable technique!” exclaimed the Sword Immortal Emperor, completely impressed.

“Just luck.” Huang Xiaolong felt somewhat exhausted too, “This guy was complacent, and first got controlled by my talisman; then, five continuous days and nights of conversion by the light, whittling him down little by little, barely managed to succeed. Tiring, truly too tiring.”

“Brother-in-law, you should rest up a bit,” said the Ninth Princess with a face full of concern. “Now that we have subdued the eldest prince, there probably won’t be any immediate danger.”

“News of us outsiders entering the City of Ten Thousand Formations has probably spread far and wide already. If the eldest prince wanted a share of the spoils, wouldn’t the second or third princes be tempted too? Moreover, the Venerable of Ten Thousand Formations himself might set his sights on us,” Huang Xiaolong remarked, not daring to be negligent.

“Brother Huang Xiaolong, you speak truly. So, what should our next move be?” inquired the Purple Flame Immortal Emperor.

“Hmm,” Huang Xiaolong pondered, seeming to have had a plan in mind all along. “Stick to the original plan; first infiltrate the royal palace.”

“The royal palace where your father, the Venerable of Ten Thousand Formations lives, must have been arranged into a labyrinth using formations, right?” Huang Xiaolong asked the eldest prince.

Regarding the royal palace and the core secrets of the City of Ten Thousand Formations, it was natural for the eldest prince to know far more than the twenty-seven princes did.

“Yes, Master. Master is truly wise. Within the palace, there are over ten thousand formations, making it a vast labyrinth, one of the finest in the universe. Even an Immortal Emperor or the king of the Long Clan would get lost entering the labyrinth,” the eldest prince concurred earnestly.

“Oh?” Huang Xiaolong frowned. “Then you must be familiar with these labyrinths, right?”

“Yes, to report to master, I know how to navigate through the majority of the labyrinths in the palace. It’s just the core few labyrinths that only father knows,” the eldest prince concurred sincerely.

“Do you know where the formation’s eyes are?” Huang Xiaolong asked.

The eldest prince shook his head blankly. “Master, that is the most important labyrinth in the palace! Only father can come and go freely; even I, your servant, would be sunk and never return once inside the formation’s eye. Moreover, father has issued a strict command that no one is to approach the formation’s eye!”

“Forget it, it doesn’t matter; tonight, I am going to storm the palace! Let’s see just how formidable those labyrinths really are.” Huang Xiaolong chuckled coldly and then ordered the eldest prince, “Tonight, I will use an Invisibility Talisman to completely conceal my presence; you and the twenty-seven princes will accompany me into the palace, in search of the formation’s eye!”

“Yes!” The eldest prince and the twenty-seven princes nodded in unison.

“Brother-in-law, what about us?” the Ninth Princess inquired.

The rest of the treasure hunters turned their gazes toward Huang Xiaolong.

“You?” Huang Xiaolong gave it some thought and then decided. “Leaving you here makes me uneasy. Well, I have plenty of Invisibility Talismans; tonight, you all will accompany me to break into the palace! Whether we can leave this realm swiftly or not will depend on tonight’s haul!”

“Yes!” The treasure hunters agreed without objection.

“I hope we don’t disturb the Venerable of Ten Thousand Formations,” muttered the Sword Immortal Emperor.

The eldest prince suddenly spoke up, “Rest assured, everyone. Father spends most of his time at the formation’s eye, studying the supreme formation left behind by the Immortal Emperor who slayed the heavens. He’s essentially in seclusion, and he seldom moves about. As long as we are cautious, we should not run into him. However, if father discovers us, his life, spanning ten thousand years, could crush us to dust with a flick of his finger!”

“As long as we’re careful. With my brother-in-law here, there’s always a way out; any peril we encounter can be dissolved.” The Third Crown Prince of the Long Clan was brimming with confidence in Huang Xiaolong.

Thereupon, Huang Xiaolong began to make thorough preparations.

Night fell.

The entire City of Ten Thousand Formations plunged into a radiant atmosphere filled with lights.

Huang Xiaolong distributed a large quantity of Invisibility Talismans to the treasure hunters.

All of them affixed the Invisibility Talisman, vanishing both in form and presence, as if becoming air.

The eldest prince and the twenty-seven princes set out side by side from the estate.

They headed straight for the royal palace.

Huang Xiaolong led a large group of treasure hunters, following behind silently like phantoms.

After circling around the city, at last, a cluster of palaces appeared ahead!

The royal palace was reached!

The lair of the Venerable of Ten Thousand Formations was reached!

The place where the key to the Ninth Realm lay hidden was reached!
