Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1184: Chapter 616: You Care a Lot About This Matter

A formidable Spiritual Power shot out from the side, deflecting the Second Elder’s attack.

The Tianlan Saint Master intervened. He appeared in front of Gu Sheng, gathering Spiritual Power in his palm to form a barrier that completely blocked the Second Elder’s assault.

The Second Elder was knocked back by this powerful force, stumbling and almost falling to the ground.

He clumsily got up and looked toward the Tianlan Saint Master, full of confusion.

Logically, the Tianlan Saint Master had always coveted Gu Sheng’s inheritance, so why would he save him?

Gongsun Yue hurried to Gu Sheng’s side, reaching out to support him and anxiously asked, ”Gu Sheng, how are you? Are you hurt?”

Although Gu Sheng was slightly injured, it was not serious. He looked at the Tianlan Saint Master, not understanding why he had intervened to help.

The Tianlan Saint Mother looked at the Second Elder with an angry expression and reprimanded loudly, ”Second Elder, you’ve gone too far! How can you kill someone in public?”

The Second Elder looked embarrassed and quickly explained, ”Please calm down, Holy Mother. I... I just wanted to test the boy’s strength, I didn’t really mean to kill him.”

The Tianlan Saint Master said coldly, ”Second Elder, your test was too excessive. I order you to immediately retreat into seclusion for a year, not to leave the Elder Hall by even a step.”

Although the Second Elder felt reluctant, he had no choice but to clasp his hands helplessly in the face of the Tianlan Saint Master’s order and said, ”Yes, Saint Master.” He turned around and left the council hall dejectedly.

The Tianlan Saint Master turned to the Tianxuan Divine Girl and bowed to apologize: ”Tianxuan Divine Girl, I sincerely apologize, today’s incident was a misunderstanding. I hope you won’t take offense, Goddess.”

The Tianxuan Divine Girl snorted lightly and said, ”I hope it really was just a misunderstanding. In the future, let there not be such incidents from your Tianlan Sacred Land again.”

The Tianlan Saint Master quickly said, ”Rest assured, Goddess, such things will not happen again.”

He turned to the Tianlan Saint Mother and said, ”Holy Mother, please escort the Tianxuan Divine Girl back to the Bilong Pavilion.”

The Tianlan Saint Mother nodded and replied, ”Yes, Saint Master.” Then she accompanied the Tianxuan Divine Girl away.

After everyone had left, the Tianlan Saint Master called Daoist Xiushan over and said, ”Xiushan, you are responsible for healing Gu Sheng’s injuries. This child has great potential, and I want you to guide him more in body refinement in the future.”

Daoist Xiushan was surprised by the Tianlan Saint Master’s arrangement. But he quickly understood the Saint Master’s intention, so he nodded and said, ”Yes, Saint Master.”

After the Tianlan Saint Master left, Daoist Xiushan led Gu Sheng towards the Book Collection Pavilion.

Gongsun Yue followed behind, full of curiosity and many questions.

Along the way, Gongsun Yue couldn’t help but ask, ”Senior Xiushan, why did the Saint Master change his attitude and decide to save Gu Sheng?”

Daoist Xiushan pondered for a moment and said, ”I guess the strength Gu Sheng showed earlier made the Saint Master see hope. Perhaps the Saint Master believes that Gu Sheng might lead our Tianlan Sacred Land to glory in the future, so he temporarily put aside his greed for Gu Sheng’s inheritance.”

Gu Sheng, although finding it a bit strange, could only accept this explanation.

He was grateful for the Tianlan Saint Master’s life-saving kindness, and he resolved to work hard in cultivation and not disappoint this expectation.

Soon, they arrived at the Book Collection Pavilion. Daoist Xiushan led Gu Sheng into a secret chamber, letting him sit down and began to heal his injuries.

Daoist Xiushan quickly formed seals with both hands, infusing a gentle Spiritual Power into Gu Sheng’s body.

He observed Gu Sheng’s physical condition. To his surprise, Gu Sheng’s body had an incredible recovery ability, and in less than two hours, his injuries completely healed.

Daoist Xiushan looked at Gu Sheng with curiosity and said, ”Gu Sheng, why is your body’s recovery ability so strong?”

Gu Sheng didn’t want anyone to know that his Sacred Body was the number one Sacred Body in the Purple Spirit Realm, so he said, ”Maybe it’s because I usually train hard and have laid a good foundation.”

Daoist Xiushan said to Gu Sheng, ”Gu Sheng, unleash your Heaven-breaking Fist, do it with full force!”

Gu Sheng hesitated and said, ”Senior Xiushan, this... this might not be appropriate, what if I accidentally hurt you...”

Gongsun Yue chuckled and interjected, ”Gu Sheng, you don’t need to worry. Daoist Xiushan is the strongest Body Refiner in the Tianlan Sacred Land, with your current cultivation, you can’t hurt him at all.”

Daoist Xiushan burst into laughter and said, ”Feel free to strike confidently. Even if your master came, they might not be able to injure me with a punch!”

Gu Sheng no longer hesitated. He circulated the Spiritual Power within his body, and his aura surged all around him.

He steadied his feet firmly on the ground, clenched his fists, and his arm muscles bulged slightly.

With a low shout, a powerful physical aura spread from him as the center to the surroundings.

Gongsun Yue, who originally stood aside, was forced to back several steps by this aura.

She quickly stretched out her hands to steady herself, exclaiming, ”Gu Sheng’s growth rate is truly astonishing!”

By this time, Gu Sheng had pushed the power of the Heaven-breaking Fist to its peak, raising his fist high and then smashed it down towards Daoist Xiushan with tremendous force.

With a loud ”bang,” the entire Book Collection Pavilion seemed to shake slightly.

What Gu Sheng hadn’t expected was that when the punch landed on Daoist Xiushan, he felt his strength had nowhere to go, instead, he was forced to retreat by a strong rebounding force.

His feet scraped two shallow marks on the ground before he barely managed to steady himself.

Daoist Xiushan, feeling the power of this punch, marveled, ”What an impressive Heaven-breaking Fist, the power is indeed astounding! It’s a pity I can’t cultivate such Martial Technique.”

Daoist Xiushan looked at Gu Sheng and said, ”Gu Sheng, the Tianlan Saint Master specially instructed me to guide you in physical body refinement. From today onwards, I can be considered half of your master.”
