Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 686: Chapter 367: Trouble for the Li Family

That was the Guardian of the Li family—a cultivator of tremendous power.

Gu Sheng let out a cold laugh, his figure flickered, and he evaded the opponent’s strike in an instant.

He activated the Gale Nine Swords cultivation technique and engaged the opponent in battle immediately.

Sword Qi crisscrossed and golden light flickered as the two exchanged dozens of fierce blows.

Gu Sheng, blessed with the Ancient Sacred Body and powerful cultivation techniques, swiftly gained the upper hand.

”Bang—” With a deafening boom, the Li family Guardian was struck by Gu Sheng’s palm and sent crashing heavily into the wall, unconscious.

Without a moment’s pause, Gu Sheng swiftly left the treasure vault, vanishing into the darkness of the night.

He knew this was no place to linger and needed to leave this dangerous territory as quickly as possible.

Back at Elder Jiang’s house, Gu Sheng carefully stored away the Source stones, his heart filled with exhilaration.

These precious cultivation resources would bring enormous aid to his future cultivation journey. At the same time, he felt proud of his clever exploitation of the conflict between two families and his daring success in infiltrating the treasure vault to achieve his goal.

This adventure not only granted him invaluable cultivation resources but also reinforced his determination to pursue the path of cultivation!

In the days that followed, Gu Sheng began secluded, intense training.

Using these Source stones, he tirelessly tempered his divine patterns and enhanced his cultivation, his power surging rapidly during this process.

”Rumble—” As Gu Sheng’s cultivation technique operated, it seemed as though mountains fractured and oceans roared within his Life Wheel.

This was his Wheel Sea mystical realm undergoing an earth-shattering transformation.

”Golden waves surged endlessly, the phantasms of exotic flora, fauna, and beasts looming...” Elder Jiang stood outside the house, awe-struck by the overwhelming aura emanating from within. He muttered to himself, ”This child truly is a prodigy bestowed by the heavens!”

Soon after, Gu Sheng emerged from his seclusion, feeling the newfound strength coursing through his body, elation brimming within him.

He knew he had drawn one step closer to his ultimate goal!

Cultivation remained Gu Sheng’s main pursuit. Beyond his seclusion in Elder Jiang’s dilapidated hut, he would venture deep into the wilderness for training, where the isolation ensured no disturbances.

In the depths of the mountains, Gu Sheng sat cross-legged, his face serene, his eyes tightly shut, as though communing with the mysterious forces of heaven and earth. His cultivation had reached the Wheel Sea mystical realm, having opened the Bitter Sea, and now he was activating his techniques with his aura rising continually.

”Buzz—” As Gu Sheng’s cultivation technique operated, a strange phenomenon unfolded below his navel, where his Life Wheel appeared. Mountains, rivers, lakes, seas, flora, fauna, and beasts materialized like a miniature world evolving within. Golden waves surged furiously, releasing an overwhelming aura, as if intent on shattering the heavens.

Gu Sheng’s Ancient Sacred Body also manifested its extraordinary traits in this moment. His physical frame was enveloped in radiant golden light, every inch of flesh shimmering with magnificent brilliance. This golden glow not only fortified his body but endowed him with an aura of inviolable sanctity.

”Gale Nine Swords!” Gu Sheng shouted, and the Mystical Sky Sword in his hand unsheathed in an instant, its Sword Qi soared skyward like a rainbow. This Earth-level low-grade treasure seemed alive in his hands, emanating a formidable presence, with Sword Qi roaring as if to tear apart all barriers.

Simultaneously, Gu Sheng’s Invisibility Technique, the Shadow Concealment Skill, was set in motion, making his form momentarily flicker between visibility and obscurity, blending seamlessly into the surrounding shadows. This enigmatic movement technique enabled him to launch surprising attacks in combat.

”Carefree Ascension Step!” Gu Sheng’s figure flashed, instantly traversing dozens of meters, his speed leaving one in awe. This was the speed technique he practiced, with each step seeming to bridge the gaps of space.

Gu Sheng not only possessed an indomitable physique but also mastered multiple arcane arts. His Grass Vine Demon Soul revealed itself at this juncture, stretching over ten thousand meters like a coiling dragon in mid-air, exuding a corrosive aura capable of disintegrating anything it touched in an instant.

Furthermore, Gu Sheng wielded a spatial leap secret technique, enabling him to traverse distances exceeding a thousand meters in the blink of an eye. This ability provided him a significant advantage in battle.

”Dream Butterfly Atlas!” Gu Sheng murmured inwardly, and around his body appeared a kaleidoscope of fluttering butterflies. Not only captivatingly beautiful, these butterflies could divert enemy attacks, trapping foes unwittingly within an Illusion Realm.

Gu Sheng’s most potent secret technique, however, was among the Nine Secrets—the ”All Character Secret.” Upon invoking this technique, his battle prowess escalated exponentially, making him akin to a War God incarnate. His speed, power, and defense peaked to unmatched levels.

In that instant, Gu Sheng seemed to embody the quintessential War God descending upon the mortal world. The Mystical Sky Sword and the Thirsty Blood Battle Axe in his grasp radiated chilling energy, each strike instilling dread. His Ancient Sacred Body rendered him unstoppable, a true champion in combat.

Suddenly, a dark shadow dashed towards him from afar. Gu Sheng’s gaze sharpened as the Mystical Sky Sword in his hand swung forth instantly, the clang knocking the shadow aside. His figure flickered, pursuing it. It turned out to be a Demon Beast attempting to ambush him, yet in the face of his overwhelming power, it appeared feeble.

”Hmph! Trying to ambush me? You’re far from capable!” Gu Sheng sneered, and with another flash of his sword, he obliterated the Demon Beast entirely.
