The Doctor of the City goes down the mountain

Chapter 2546 Lin Dong’s Inner Demon!
The bloody cage in front of them is the fourth level that Lin Dong and the mysterious woman are about to pass.

"This fourth level is called the Inner Demon Purgatory. Our ancestor was persuaded to give up because of this level. Because he practiced martial arts for many years, he had an insurmountable inner demon."

"To pass this level, it is not about your strength or your mental strength. It is all about your state of mind. Everyone has desires, whether for fame, wealth, or women. If such people step into it, they will be doomed."

"Only if you have no distractions can you get through. But in this world, is there anyone who has no distractions at all? As a human being, you have seven emotions and six desires, it is impossible to have no distractions."

"Of course, there are inner demons, but those who are determined and can overcome their inner demons can also pass this level."

Lin Dong nodded and said to Luo Xue, "Let's go. I also want to face my inner demons."

The more Lin Dong practiced, the more he realized the importance of state of mind to a warrior. If he did not face his inner demons, he would definitely plant a "landmine" on his future path of practice.

Maybe it will explode at the most critical moment.

The mysterious woman Luo Xue also nodded, and the two of them stepped into this inner demon purgatory together.

The surroundings were shrouded in blood, as if the deepest sorrow and fear in the world gathered here and turned into this boundless prison.

The air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, which was intertwined with the shrill wails faintly coming from afar, making people shudder.

"Is this the purgatory of the inner demon?" Luo Xue murmured softly. Although her voice was soft, it was particularly clear in the silence, as if it could penetrate the deepest secrets of the human heart.

When she turned around and looked at Lin Dong, she found that Lin Dong was no longer around.

The environment around her changed suddenly, and the entire environment turned into a prison in her heart.

It turns out that even as strong as she is, she also has her own inner demons.

At this moment, Lin Dong also entered his own world of inner demons.

At this moment, the scenery around him began to distort and deform, and scenes appeared in front of Lin Dong's eyes.

The scene in front of him suddenly changed, and Lin Dong found himself back in that winter covered with ice and snow, that Spring Festival. The children around him all had their own parents, who accompanied them, bought them new clothes, and took them to the market before the Spring Festival.

Only his lonely figure stood silently in the heavy snow, the snow was flying and covering his whole body but he didn't even notice it. In his heart, he kept asking where his father was and why he abandoned him.
His father's figure slowly emerged, but there was only a back view. In his own dream, he walked towards the distance again and again, and gradually became blurred.

"Why. Why did you leave me?" An indescribable grief surged in Lin Dong's heart, and tears mixed with rain slid down his face.

His mind reappeared the image of his mother's aging face. She used to be so gentle and beautiful, but within just a few years, her hair turned white.

Every time it rained, the poison in the mother's body tortured her to the point of wanting to die. But in order not to affect him, she always endured everything alone in bed. It was so painful, but because she couldn't bear to let her son suffer and feel uncomfortable, she gritted her teeth and refused to make any painful groans or complaints...

At that time, seeing his mother's painful expression, he swore in his heart again and again that he would become a miracle doctor when he grew up, the best miracle doctor in Dragon Country.

"Mom, I have now become the number one doctor in Dragon Country. But I can't save you."

Just like many people who study medicine are unable to save themselves.

Even with Lin Dong's great medical skills, he couldn't save his mother who had long since "died".

This is the most painful thing!
If anyone noticed Lin Dong at this moment, they would see that his eyes were completely red.

That is already on the verge of going astray.

It turns out that Lin Dong also has inner demons, and they are very deep.

He had suppressed all of it in his heart before, but now, in this purgatory of his inner demons, it was infinitely magnified. His inner demons, like an invisible hand, tightly grasped his throat, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

Those lonely nights, the time without his father, and his mother's painful expressions when she was suffering from illness, were now playing in his mind like a movie, and every frame was filled with despair and sadness.

"Father, why did you abandon me..."

"Mother, I am an unfilial son. I can only watch you suffer, but I can do nothing to help..."

The absence of his father since childhood and the feeling of powerlessness over his mother's illness have become the two major demons tormenting him at this moment.

He slowly sank, his eyes became redder and redder, and in that demonic purgatory world, he began to randomly slash out with sword energy.

This is already going too far!
If he continues to sink, he will become a puppet of the physical and mental demon and a blood slave without self-thinking in this purgatory of the physical and mental demon.

"Master! Wake up quickly!" The spirit Xiaobai of the Yangxin Sword in Lin Dong's hand turned into a white light and became a little white dragon, wandering around Lin Dong. It tried to dispel the darkness with pure sword intent.

However, the power of the inner demon was too strong, and Xiaobai's efforts were like a drop in the ocean, unable to cause any ripples.

"Master, you can't sink into this state!" Xiao Wu, the spirit of the Five-Colored Furnace, was not willing to be left behind. It transformed into colorful streams of light and surrounded Lin Dong, attempting to purify his inner demons with the essence of all things refined in the furnace.

But the inner demon seemed to have self-awareness, tightly entangling Lin Dong's mind, making Xiao Wu's efforts seem powerless.

At this critical moment, an ancient and majestic aura suddenly rose within the dragon ring space.

"You little brat, wake up! You've gone crazy!"

The witch god's spirit slowly emerged, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through everything in the world. She sighed softly and exerted powerful spiritual power to try to pull Lin Dong back from the edge of the abyss.

However, the inner demon has been deeply rooted and cannot be easily removed by external forces. Although the power of the witch god's soul is strong, it is difficult to completely clear the haze in Lin Dong's heart.

At this moment, Lin Dong no longer recognized them.

Corroded by inner demons, he is almost possessed!
Just when everyone was in despair, an unprecedented energy wave suddenly surged in the dragon ring space.

This energy is warm and familiar. It seems to come from a corner deep in Lin Dong's heart, and it seems to contain the purest emotions of all things in the world.

The energy was like a trickle or a rushing river, continuously flowing into Lin Dong's body, blending with his blood and resonating with his soul.

At this moment, it seemed as if a long-closed door was opened in Lin Dong's mind, and countless warm and beautiful pictures came flooding in.

That was the gentle embrace of my mother when I was young.

"Donger, father has not abandoned us. He just has his own things to do. When he is done, he will come to pick us up..."

"Don't cry, it's New Year's Day. Mom will take you to buy new clothes."

"Donger, Mommy is not in pain. Look outside the window, there is a rainbow. Make a wish... Donger, what wish did you make? Forget it, don't tell Mommy, it won't work if you tell her."

"Donger, mom is gone. Mom will turn into stars in the sky to bless you. Mom will find many, many 'angels' to protect you..."

"Don't resent your father, and don't feel guilty for not being able to save your mother... Live well, see the mountains and rivers, and embrace the breeze..."

The redness in Lin Dong's eyes disappeared, and the guilt and negative emotions in his mind also disappeared. Instead, he saw his mother's familiar and gentle face, and her love that healed everything.
