Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Qiankun Venerate King saw through all illusions at a glance.

”Hmph, to counter such illusions, the key is to remain unchanged amidst all changes.” Qiankun Venerate King raised the Primordial Life and Death Sword in his hand, slashing out an extreme Sword Qi infused with the Life and Death Tao.

The Sword Qi extended horizontally, tearing through the Void, and also ripping apart the storm sweeping across the sky.

Through the illusory world, Qiankun Venerate King glimpsed the source of the attacks; it turned out to be the assault of an Array.

”Mere Array, and you dare attempt to trap me!” Qiankun Venerate King snorted coldly, wielding the Longsword to cleave several times.

”Boom boom boom!” Deafening explosions erupted, and those deadly Void storms gradually subsided.

Qiankun Venerate King shouted loudly, ”Mysterious Taoist, you can hide for a while, but you can’t hide forever!” But his response was not the voice of the Taoist, but a more dominating attack.

He could no longer afford to waste energy. The Mysterious Taoist gathered all the energies of the Array to launch the most ferocious attack.

Suddenly, a colossal Heavenly Pillar, stretching ten thousand meters, thrust from the edge of the universe. From the pillar, the ultimate Power of Laws of Yin, Yang, Life, and Death erupted.

Qiankun Venerate King stared at the Life and Death Tao aura emanating from the pillar.

”This... could this be the Daoist Technique cultivated by the Holy Road Master in life?”

”If it truly is the inheritance of the Holy Road Master, it must be extremely precious, it could likely stir great waves even in the Purple Spirit Realm.”

Qiankun Venerate King’s body erupted with the power of life and death.

He brandished the Divine Sword, slashing out domineering Sword Qi, constantly repelling the attacks of the Array. Constantly approaching the center of the universe. As he drew closer,

Qiankun Venerate King gradually perceived a familiar aura. ”It’s Gu Sheng!” The aura was emanating from that lotus flower.

”That kid, actually in the midst of accepting an inheritance trial, and it seems he has reached a critical stage!” Qiankun Venerate King was both shocked and angry.

Kunpeng Taoist and Murong Qingcheng followed behind Qiankun Venerate King, also sensing Gu Sheng’s aura. At this moment, Gu Sheng’s aura was no longer weak, but rather filled with vibrant life.

Mysterious Taoist turned her head to glance at Gu Sheng, who was radiating limitless immortal light. At this moment, Gu Sheng was at a key juncture, absolutely cannot be disturbed.

Her originally wilting body once again bloomed with strong vitality.

Within her body, a faintly burning shadow emerged. To gain greater strength to block Qiankun Venerate King, she resolutely chose to burn her own soul.

”This old body won’t last long; dying is no big deal, but I fear not holding out till the end...” Mysterious Taoist muttered.

Thinking of herself as the once imposing Ancient Great Emperor, who was once awe-inspiring in the Cultivation World, but unable to guard the master’s inheritance, unable to even deter a Lower Realm cultivator who hasn’t reached the Earth Palace Realm, how could she not feel desolate.

Boom boom! The ancient Array, under the full control of the Mysterious Taoist, erupted with even more powerful attacks.

A formidable force surged towards Qiankun Venerate King.

Qiankun Venerate King’s face changed, wanting to evade but it was already too late, hit by this powerful force, his whole body flew out, spitting a mouthful of fresh blood, looking extremely embarrassed.

He hadn’t anticipated that the Mysterious Taoist would be so decisive to burn her soul to enhance the Array’s power.

Qiankun Venerate King fled embarrassedly, Kunpeng Taoist asked worriedly, ”Venerate King, what do we do now? That Mysterious Taoist’s soul burning has greatly increased the Array’s power.”

Qiankun Venerate King wiped the bloodstain off the corner of his mouth, speaking solemnly, ”Don’t panic, that Mysterious Taoist’s soul burning can’t last long. Once her strength wanes, I will strike again.

I’ve seen her weakness; as long as we slowly endure, we can endure her to death. By then, no one will stop me from dealing with Gu Sheng.”

Kunpeng Taoist was still somewhat worried but also thought Qiankun Venerate King’s words made sense. He couldn’t help but ask again, ”What if Gu Sheng obtains the inheritance during this time?”

Qiankun Venerate King snorted with disdain, ”Hmph, how can Lower Realm cultivators comprehend the level of the Holy Road Master? The inheritance he left, not even I can hope to obtain without a long time. They are just wishfully thinking.”

His words were filled with contempt for the Xinghong Spirit Domain cultivators. Kunpeng Taoist and others were somewhat displeased but dared not refute, given Qiankun Venerate King’s power, the gap is indeed too vast.

Boom! The Array’s attack descended again. The roaring immortal energy transformed into a giant Fire Phoenix, whose wings stretched ten thousand meters, easily whipping up a terrifying storm, sweeping towards Qiankun Venerate King and others.

Qiankun Venerate King’s face changed, decisively turning to flee. Seeing Qiankun Venerate King run, the others also fled towards the exit.

As they fled far, the Array’s attack gradually disappeared, the originally tumultuous starry sky also gradually regained its calm.

Mysterious Taoist watched the silhouettes of Qiankun Venerate King and others leaving, wanting to chase and capture them all, but her own life force was scarcely left.

Chasing Qiankun Venerate King would only accelerate her own death.

Now the most important thing is to guard Gu Sheng and hold on until he completes the inheritance trial. As for other matters, they are no longer important.

Mysterious Taoist weakly gasped, once again sitting cross-legged above Gu Sheng, protecting him.

She could clearly feel the powerful aura emanating from Gu Sheng.

The final inheritance trial was about to begin, Gu Sheng’s will would enter endless cycles, undergoing one harsh trial after another.

In these trials, if one fails, they must go through another lifetime until succeeding, or until their will completely collapses, ending with a tragic fate of an intact body but a destroyed soul.

Gu Sheng’s previous trials went smoothly and he hadn’t encountered failures, passing several trials within one lifetime, which was why he progressed so rapidly. Now he faced a deadly problem.

Gu Sheng let out a groan of unbearable pain, this sound caught the Mysterious Taoist’s attention.

She looked down, her expression changing drastically. ”It’s bad, his soul has been injured by Old Monster Luo He; this final trial tests willpower, his unstable soul will significantly impact him!”

Mysterious Taoist’s breath stopped, her heart leaped to her throat. She saw Gu Sheng’s body starting to tremble uncontrollably, the frequency of tremors growing, his face increasingly pained.

His body was soaked with cold sweat, with lots of sweat endlessly dripping down.

Mysterious Taoist was anxious but had no solution. All she could do was help Gu Sheng resist external interference, yet she had no way to aid him in passing this crucial trial.

”Everything rests on you. Hopefully, you won’t disappoint me.” Mysterious Taoist prayed silently.

For Gu Sheng to pass the trial amidst soul damage was exceedingly stringent.

At this point, Gu Sheng had no other choice. He must either pass the trial and gain the master’s inheritance, embarking on a glorious cultivation path.

Or have his will consumed in endless cycles, leaving behind a body devoid of awareness, a fate indistinguishable from death.

Boom! Gu Sheng looked skyward, the menacing face marred by uncontrollable desire.

”Caught by lust, he’s trapped by sensuality.” Mysterious Taoist thought inwardly. ”Hmm, turns out he’s still…”

Mysterious Taoist initially found it odd until she realized Gu Sheng was still a virgin, and then she understood.

Gu Sheng’s soul power was damaged, his will unstable, hence his weakest point would be exposed.

Evidently, Gu Sheng’s major shortcoming in resisting temptation was sensuality. As his will gradually loosened, the overwhelming desire for sensuality erupted crazily.

”Caught in sensuality is quite easily resolved, as long as he releases the desire, but...” Mysterious Taoist glanced around, discovering there wasn’t a single opposite gender present.

She was troubled; it couldn’t be herself, could it? She didn’t mind, but feared Gu Sheng would lose control of his Dao Heart and go mad.
