Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 591: Chapter 319 Gratitude for Revenge_2

”Little brat, is this all you’ve got?” Ji Wanyou said mockingly, ”Looks like you’ll be dying here today!”

Gu Sheng gritted his teeth and endured the pain as he stood up. He knew he was already in dire straits, but he would never give up on even the slightest hope of survival.

”Ji Wanyou, don’t celebrate too soon!”

With a furious roar, Gu Sheng commanded the Grass Vine Demon Soul to launch a final counterattack against Ji Wanyou and Ji Jingwei. The Grass Vine Demon Soul moved like a nimble serpent, rapidly entwining them.

”Ssss ssss...” The sound of corrosion echoed like rolling thunder, booming endlessly.

The two were caught off guard, shocked that Gu Sheng still had such tricks. In their panic, the Grass Vine Demon Soul landed a fierce hit on them, freezing their bodies mid-air instantly.

”Such petty tricks!”

Ji Wanyou wielded a golden pair of scissors, swiftly cutting through the Grass Vine and unleashing enormous destructive force that shattered the Void. A sharp pain surged through Gu Sheng, and a streak of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

The shared pain between the host and the Grass Vine made Gu Sheng feel every ounce of its suffering.

”Damn brat!” Ji Wanyou roared furiously, forcing herself to stand upright.

Her gaze fixed on Gu Sheng’s retreating figure, a cold glimmer flashing in her eyes.

She knew this battle was not over. Gu Sheng must die!

But Gu Sheng had already vanished without a trace, making it difficult to find him.

Ji Wanyou took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

She pondered her next steps as Gu Sheng, after escaping Ji Wanyou and Ji Jingwei’s pursuit, found a hidden cave to heal his injuries.

The night was as black as ink, and inside the secret cave, Gu Sheng’s face had not yet regained its color. Silently, he circulated his energy to heal his wounds, though his mind was tumultuous.

From that battle, the Grass Vine Demon Soul had been injured by the golden scissors and was now weak and listless. Gu Sheng inhaled deeply, retrieving the renowned Green Light Spirit Marrow Grass from his Space Ring. The grass was crystalline and transparent, seemingly infused with the purest Spiritual Power of heaven and earth.

”Grass Vine Demon Soul, hold on. I’ll heal you now,” Gu Sheng murmured softly, beginning the process of refining the Green Light Spirit Marrow Grass.

As the refining progressed, streams of pure Spiritual Power flowed into the Grass Vine Demon Soul. The previously drooping vine began gradually regaining vitality; its leaves turned lusher, and its tendrils grew thicker.

”Ssss ssss—” The Grass Vine Demon Soul’s wounds visibly started to heal, energy surging vigorously again, its tendrils expanding to over four thousand meters, filling the entire cave.

Although the Grass Vine Demon Soul regained much of its strength, it didn’t break through to a new realm. Meanwhile, residual Spirit Marrow Grass Spiritual Energy still lingered in the isolated array, diffusing through the cave like mist, bringing a serene and refreshing mood.

Gu Sheng wasted none of this precious energy, guiding it carefully into his body to cultivate. As the energy poured in, he felt his internal power reaching a bursting point, golden energy rampaging inside him like a beast, seemingly ready to tear him apart.

”Ah—” Gu Sheng let out a low growl as he felt turbulence stir in the depths of the Sea Floor Realm within him. The seas turned golden, glowing brightly—an omen of imminent breakthrough!

Just then, heavenly tribulation struck!

”Boom rumble—” The thunder roared, shaking the entire cave. Streaks of purple lightning descended from the heavens like giant dragons coiling above the cave. Warriors from all corners were startled, chattering with speculation about which expert might be facing the tribulation.

”This is... heavenly tribulation?!” Gu Sheng’s eyes widened in shock and delight. He understood that this was the critical moment for his breakthrough—if he could survive this tribulation, his cultivation would advance to the next level!

”Come! Show me your might!” Gu Sheng gritted his teeth, resisting the thunderous blows of the tribulation with full force. Each streak of purple lightning carried world-destroying power, but Gu Sheng faced them bravely, relying on his Ancient Sacred Body’s resilient physique and unwavering willpower to combat the heavenly tribulation.

”Gale Nine Swords!” With a low shout, Gu Sheng launched golden palm strikes and punches to counter the lightning bolts. Every clash left him trembling, yet he refused to flinch. His figure darted through the cave, dodging the furious lightning strikes. At the same time, he continuously wielded the Jade Girl Colorful Sword and the Thirsty Blood Battle Axe to battle the lightning.

As time passed, the tribulation’s strength began to ebb. Gu Sheng knew the moment for his counterattack had arrived! Activating his cultivation technique, he absorbed the remaining Spiritual Energy completely into his body. Instantly, he felt a surging power course through him, as though he could shake the very heavens and earth!

”Ah—” Gu Sheng let out a roar that soared to the nine heavens! After enduring wave after wave of tribulation, he finally broke through to the Second Layer Heaven of the Sea Floor Realm! He felt transformed—both his physique and Spiritual Power experienced a qualitative leap!

”Hahaha! I’ve finally broken through!” Gu Sheng exclaimed in ecstasy, his eyes shining with resolute determination, as if glimpsing a brilliant future. ”Ji Wanyou, Ji Jingwei, just wait! I’ll make you regret this!”

Meanwhile, the horizon afar gradually brightened with dawn. A new day had begun. For Gu Sheng, this marked the start of a brand new Chapter in life—a journey full of passion and unyielding spirit, forging ahead on the path of Martial Arts!

”Congratulations on your successful breakthrough, Master!” The Grass Vine Demon Soul transmitted a ripple of Divine Thought, expressing its heartfelt congratulations to Gu Sheng.

”Thank you, Grass Vine Demon Soul,” Gu Sheng replied with a smile. ”Without your help, I wouldn’t have broken through so quickly.”

Gu Sheng stood up, feeling the abundant energy coursing through his body. He realized that not only had this tribulation shattered his cultivation bottleneck, but it also solidified his resolve in pursuing the Martial Arts path. Drawing a deep breath, he emerged from the cave. No longer was he the vulnerable boy who others could bully—he now stood as a true Martial Artist!

”Where should I go next?” Gu Sheng gazed at the distant skyline, pondering silently. ”Perhaps I should seek out more opportunities and challenges to further elevate my strength!”

With that, he turned and left the hidden cave, embarking on a new journey.

However, shortly after Gu Sheng’s departure, several figures suddenly appeared within the cave. Watching the direction Gu Sheng had gone, they smiled meaningfully.

”This boy’s speed of growth is truly astonishing!” one of them remarked with admiration. ”It seems we need to reassess his threat level.”

”Hmph, no matter how powerful he becomes, he won’t escape our grasp,” another snorted coldly. ”Let’s report to the elders and let them decide!”

With that, the figures vanished into the cave’s shadows. Oblivious, Gu Sheng continued forward.

Standing on the edge of a cliff, Gu Sheng looked towards the horizon with a resolute gaze. After careful consideration, he decided to head to the Taichu Ancient Mine to elevate his strength further.

”The Taichu Ancient Mine—a place of mystery. Perhaps I can find an opportunity there to achieve another breakthrough,” Gu Sheng murmured to himself.

Located within the Taigu Mines, the Taichu Ancient Mine stretched for over eight hundred miles, rich in history and teeming with legends. To Martial Artists, it was regarded as a Holy Land for cultivation.

As Gu Sheng entered the Taigu Mines, he immediately sensed a profound and enigmatic aura enveloping the land. Around him stretched a vast, boundless expanse of mountain ranges and towering ancient trees. Somewhere within this immense landscape lay the Taichu Ancient Mine, waiting for intrepid explorers.

Upon reaching the Taichu Ancient Mine, Gu Sheng found it crowded with Martial Artists. He soon learned that the Ji family’s miners had recently unearthed a powerful entity, capturing everyone’s attention. Its emergence had caused waves of destruction, claiming the lives of numerous creatures but also drawing warriors from every corner eager to vie for its treasures.

”It seems I’ve come to the right place,” Gu Sheng thought to himself.

In the mine’s center lay a black coffin, quietly emanating a powerful rhythm that carried earth-shattering might. Martial Artists surrounded the coffin, their eyes flashing with greed.

”Is this the fabled treasure?”
