Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 530: Chapter 289 White Lotus Scatter Flowers

At the height of Gu Sheng’s slaughter on the battlefield, a voice as clear and melodious as a spring echoed across the scene:

”Gu Sheng, after causing so much bloodshed, are you not afraid of divine retribution in the future?” The voice was gentle, yet carried an undeniable majesty.

Gu Sheng turned his head, only to see a woman clothed in white hovering midair. Her beauty was otherworldly, her demeanor regal, like the purest lotus flower, appearing strikingly out of place amidst the blood-soaked battlefield.

It was none other than the Shaking Light Saintess!

”Divine retribution?” Gu Sheng let out a scoff. ”All I know is—those who stand in my way shall die!”

”If that’s the case, allow me to test you.”

The Shaking Light Saintess moved with a graceful step, appearing before Gu Sheng in the blink of an eye.

Her Cultivation Technique, the Blossoming White Lotus, was both profound and mysterious, petals of lotus flowers flying outward, transforming into sharp, relentless attacks.

Gu Sheng dared not underestimate her, activating the Gale Nine Swords to counter her onslaught.

Sword light clashed with lotus petals, producing clear, melodious sounds of metal against metal. Their battle raged on in a stalemate, with neither side gaining the upper hand for a while.

”Your Swordsmanship isn’t bad, but it still lacks refinement,” the Shaking Light Saintess sneered coldly.

Her figure became a blur, slipping past Gu Sheng’s blade at an impossible angle. At the same time, her palm landed on his chest.

Gu Sheng felt a dull ache in his chest as a tremendous force penetrated his Battle Armor, shaking his internal energy and making his blood surge uncontrollably.

He was secretly alarmed; the strength of the Shaking Light Saintess was indeed unfathomable.

”Hmph, do you think you’ve already won?”

Gu Sheng took a deep breath, calming the tumultuous energy within himself. Reversing his grip, he slashed at the Shaking Light Saintess with his sword.

His sword light roared forth like a golden dragon, its momentum overwhelming.

The Shaking Light Saintess frowned slightly, her movements unpredictable. With an eerie and elusive movement technique, she evaded the strike.

At the same time, she waved her jade-like hand. A pristine lotus flower bloomed in midair, radiating a soft glow that enveloped Gu Sheng.

”White Lotus Immortal Trapping Array, activate!”

With a soft incantation from the Shaking Light Saintess, the lotus’ light expanded dramatically, transforming into a colossal barrier that trapped Gu Sheng within. The interior was enveloped in a boundless white mist, as though he had stepped into an illusory world.

”This is...”

Gu Sheng found himself surrounded by an expanse of white mist, his sensory perception suppressed to the extreme.

He realized that this was the Shaking Light Saintess’s exclusive technique, the White Lotus Immortal Trapping Array. Once ensnared, he was as helpless as a fish in a barrel.

”Hahaha, Gu Sheng, oh Gu Sheng, you thought yourself so mighty? Yet, isn’t it you who’s trapped now?”

The Shaking Light Saintess laughed aloud outside. ”This White Lotus Immortal Trapping Array is the treasured technique of the Shaking Light Sacred Land. Even with earth-shaking abilities, you can dream of escaping!”

”Hmph, don’t be so sure of yourself.”

At that moment, a cold voice rang in her ear, sending a chill down her spine.

Gu Sheng, who was supposed to be trapped within the light barrier, inexplicably appeared before her. His golden eyes glimmered with a soul-stirring light.

”You... how is this possible?”

The Shaking Light Saintess was utterly stunned. She stumbled back a few steps, barely steadying herself, her eyes fixed on Gu Sheng as if she’d seen a ghost.

”A mere Trapping Array to restrain me? How laughable.”

Gu Sheng smirked disdainfully as he reached out and seized the delicate wrist of the Shaking Light Saintess. ”Now, I believe it’s my turn to strike, no?”

The Shaking Light Saintess felt an immense force emanating from Gu Sheng’s palm, rendering her incapable of movement.

To her horror, she realized her Blossoming White Lotus Technique was utterly powerless in the face of this overwhelming strength!

”You... what do you intend to do?” The Shaking Light Saintess snapped, trying to mask her inner fear with a commanding tone.

”What do you think? I’ll make you my source of blood nourishment, of course.”

A savage gleam flickered in Gu Sheng’s eyes. ”Absorbing your Essence Blood would surely elevate my cultivation further.”

As he spoke, he opened his mouth wide, revealing sharp fangs as he moved to sink them into the Shaking Light Saintess’s neck!

But at that critical moment, an unexpected change occurred!

A brilliant radiance erupted from the body of the Shaking Light Saintess, forcefully blasting Gu Sheng back several steps.

At the same time, a silver bracelet around her wrist emitted a crisp sound.

”Gu Sheng, cease your arrogance! As long as I’m here, you won’t harm a single hair on the Holy Daughter!”

A cold female voice echoed in the air, and moments later, a graceful figure appeared beside the Shaking Light Saintess.

This was a woman clad in silver Battle Armor, wielding a longsword. Her gaze was sharp as a blade.

”Oh? Reinforcements?”

Gu Sheng licked the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes gleaming with excitement. ”Very well. Today, I’ll show you both the true extent of my power!”

With that, he summoned the Demon Soul of the Green Vine and launched an attack at the armored woman.

Yet, the armored woman didn’t flinch, meeting his strike head-on with her longsword!

The clash of sword and vine produced deafening explosions in the air.

The two engaged in an intense exchange, locked in a battle where no clear victor emerged.

The Shaking Light Saintess breathed a sigh of relief at the sight.

She knew she had encountered a formidable foe today. Alone, she likely wouldn’t have been able to secure a victory. Thankfully, at this critical juncture, the mysterious silver-armored woman had intervened. Otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

What she didn’t know was that this armored woman was actually a reclusive elder of the Shaking Light Sacred Land, secretly tasked with protecting the Holy Daughter.

The appearance of Gu Sheng had triggered an unprecedented sense of threat for her, compelling her to reveal herself at last.

After a protracted battle, Gu Sheng gradually identified flaws in the armored woman’s Swordsmanship.

Delighted, he quietly waited for the opportunity to strike.

Finally, as she extended her sword for a strike, he moved like lightning, landing a palm strike squarely on her chest!
