The Doctor of the City goes down the mountain

Chapter 2679 It’s worth losing!

Lin Dong was moving across the empty battlefield at the fastest speed, his body surrounded by the infinite light unique to the Dragon Blood Holy Body after it was transformed into a scale-reversing body. It was a deep blue-purple color that seemed to be able to devour all light, demonstrating the terrifying power hidden in his body.

However, facing the guardian beast puppet with the strength of the fifth level before him, even he had to admit his own insignificance and powerlessness.

The guardian beast puppet stood there like an insurmountable mountain, with two pairs of wings behind it gently flapping the air. Each flap was accompanied by a slight thunderous sound, which was a symbol of the ultimate speed.

Above the wings, there was a faint flash of lightning, as if it contained the most violent power in the world, making people afraid.

The battle started again. Lin Dong, relying on the infinite state of his body, engaged in a fierce confrontation with the guardian beast puppet.

Each of his punches and kicks contained the power to destroy the world, but in front of this behemoth, they seemed to have only stirred up a few insignificant waves.

The attacks of the guardian beast puppets are so swift and deadly.

Its speed was as fast as lightning. Even when Lin Dong used the ancient martial arts "Wind Phantom Steps", it was difficult to catch its figure.

Those two pairs of wings seemed to be natural accelerators, allowing it to fly freely in the air without restraint.

"With this kind of speed, I will have no chance of matching it unless I can obtain the Earth Dragon Technique!" Lin Dong said secretly.

“Even if I just break through to the second level of strength, I can’t compare to him.” This thought arose in Lin Dong’s mind.

He had originally thought that with his peak strength at the first level, he could match the strength of the fourth level, or even defeat the strength of the fourth level.

Therefore, if he can break through to the second level of strength, then he will be able to challenge the second ancestor and contend with the fifth level and above.

But now it seems that I took it for granted!

Of course, if you can obtain the Earth Dragon Magic Technique, that would be a different story.

"Boom~~~~" While Lin Dong was daydreaming, the guardian beast puppet launched another attack.

That was a thunder attack!
It can actually use the power of elements!
Lin Dong could only rely on his keen intuition and extraordinary reaction ability to barely avoid the opponent's attack.

But even so, he gradually felt powerless. The attacks of the guardian beast puppets became more and more frequent, and every time they passed by him, he was terrified, as if he would be torn apart by the sharp claws in the next second.

What made Lin Dong even more desperate was that the guardian beast puppet seemed to possess some kind of intelligence. It began to use its speed advantage to constantly lure Lin Dong into traps.

Lin Dong tried to counterattack several times, but was cleverly resolved by the opponent, who took the opportunity to launch a more fierce attack.

"This... is this the horror of the fifth level of strength?" Lin Dong secretly marveled in his heart, and at the same time he felt an unprecedented sense of frustration.

He never thought that he would be defeated so miserably by a puppet.

Sweat slid down Lin Dong's cheeks, dripped into the dust, and evaporated completely in an instant.

His breathing became heavy and rapid, and every breath seemed to burn the last bit of strength in his body.

Facing this guardian beast puppet with fifth-level strength, Lin Dong has persisted for more than three hundred rounds. This is an unprecedented extreme challenge for him.

However, even with such efforts, he could not see the dawn of victory. The guardian beast puppet still maintained its suffocating speed and strength. Every attack was like a storm, making Lin Dong exhausted. He knew that he had reached his limit and could no longer hold on.

"I...I give up." Although Lin Dong's voice was weak, it was extremely firm.

He looked up at the guardian beast puppet that was high above him. There was no resentment in his eyes, only relief.

He understood that in this contest of strength, he had already done his best, and there was no need to force himself for the so-called reward, or even sacrifice his own foundation.

As Lin Dong admitted defeat, the guardian beast puppet also stopped attacking, and a barely perceptible trace of approval seemed to flash across its cold eyes.

Then, it slowly landed on the ground, folded its wings, and returned to its original solemn and calm appearance.

Lin Dong stood where he was, breathing heavily and adjusting his condition.

He felt waves of emptiness and fatigue coming from his body, but at the same time he also felt an unprecedented sense of ease and comfort.

He realized that giving up was not a failure, but a manifestation of taking responsibility for himself and having confidence in the future.

“Although I didn’t win this battle, I gained something more important than the reward.” Lin Dong thought to himself, “That made me understand one thing: to be able to take it and let it go!”

At the moment of admitting defeat, Lin Dong did not feel too depressed, but instead felt an unprecedented tranquility and clarity.

He seemed to be standing outside the river of time, examining his past efforts and challenges. Those days of sweat and tears turned into nectar that nourished his soul at this moment.

In this tranquility, Lin Dong suddenly felt a subtle change quietly taking place in his body.

It was an indescribable throbbing that came from the deepest part of his martial arts cultivation, the bottleneck of the first level of martial arts that had troubled him for a long time and kept him awake at night.

The bottleneck, the obstacle that once blocked his way forward like a solid wall, now showed signs of loosening.

Lin Dong felt an irrepressible excitement in his heart. He realized that this was not only an unexpected gain from admitting defeat, but also the result of his changed state of mind and a deeper understanding of the true meaning of martial arts.

Recalling the fierce battle with the guardian beast puppet, Lin Dong understood something.

He just gained some mental growth.

This kind of transformation in his state of mind is exactly what he has been lacking for a long time, and is also necessary to break through the bottleneck of the Heavenly Realm Warrior.

As the bottleneck loosened, Lin Dong could clearly feel that the flow of energy in his body became smoother. It seemed as if they were pulled by an invisible force and began to build a more stable and sophisticated circulation system in his body.

Although this has not allowed him to completely break through the bottleneck, the premonition of reaching a new realm has already made his blood boil and full of anticipation.

"So that's how it is. This kind of sublimation of the state of mind is the key to breakthrough." Lin Dong murmured to himself and grasped the key.

"It seems that I can no longer rush for success. I have to savor the insights gained from every battle, as well as the state of mind gained in secular life. Then, I can integrate them into my own martial arts practice... In this way, I can break through the bottlenecks among the heavenly realm warriors."

Lin Dong felt like the clouds were clearing and the sun was shining!
This failure helped him even more than success.

I can only say that he deserved to lose!
