Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1748: Chapter 887: Barely Achieved

Only two or three breaths of time had passed!

A completely intact Xiao Beixuan, whose aura was even more fierce than before, unexpectedly reappeared before Gu Sheng! Apart from his somewhat pale face and a slight fluctuation in the demonic aura around him, he was completely unchanged from before!

”Blood Rebirth?!”

Gu Sheng’s pupils slightly contracted, and his heart instantly understood, ’No, it’s not true blood rebirth, but rapid flesh regeneration relying on the Origin Power of the Blood Demon!

It seems his involvement with the Blood Demon Clan goes far deeper than Huang Batian’s simple symbiosis! I fear... he has already transformed part of his essence into a Blood Demon!’

As Gu Sheng’s thoughts raced, analyzing the root of Xiao Beixuan’s bizarre regeneration ability, the menacing blood hands waving around did not pause, continuing to grab at him from all angles like clinging maggots, disrupting his movements.

The Gang Qi around Gu Sheng transformed into swords once more, accurately slicing through the harassing blood hands like fish with spiritual intelligence, though his offensive was inevitably delayed.

Xiao Beixuan was clearly aware of this. While maintaining his flesh regeneration, he continued to divert his focus to control the blood hands, interfering so that Gu Sheng couldn’t seize the most vulnerable moment after his regeneration to deliver a finishing blow, allowing him to gain precious breathing space.

After completing the flesh regeneration, Xiao Beixuan’s demonized form seemed even more twisted, further removed from human shape.

The flesh beneath his ribs writhed violently, accompanied by a teeth-grinding ripping sound, squeezing out two more demonized arms covered in dark red scales, with sharp nails!

Now he possessed four arms! He appeared more like a multi-armed Asura crawling out from a sea of blood!

Gu Sheng noted that each time Xiao Beixuan used this kind of extreme regeneration or mutation capability, the ”human” aura on him became fainter, while the demonic traits grew more pronounced. Clearly, the cost of this power was his Human Clan bloodline being rapidly eroded and replaced by the Blood Demon’s strength!

He cannot be allowed to continue!

Gu Sheng’s eyes focused, silently activating the Insight Secret Technique he created in a previous life — Heaven Peeping Skill!

His gaze seemed to penetrate the void, ignoring Xiao Beixuan’s scale armor and demonic aura, directly targeting the location of his heart! In his ”sight,” Xiao Beixuan’s heart contained a very secret and special aperture!

Inside that aperture, there was no beating heart tissue, but a turbulent sea of extremely concentrated, bloodthirsty Essence Blood! Its total volume was so vast it was terrifying!

’Reserve of over ten thousand people’s Essence Blood!’ Gu Sheng instantly deduced the rough size of that blood sea and his heart grew colder, ’This is what he has secretly cultivated over the years in Great Wilderness City and surrounding areas, now harvested by him — the entirety of the ”Dark Agents” contribution! It is thanks to this vast reserve of Essence Blood that he can recklessly employ such regeneration abilities!’

At this moment, freshly regenerated, with a more terrifying form, Xiao Beixuan swung his four demon arms simultaneously! Blood flames roared up from the arms, reaching out viciously towards Gu Sheng across the void!

”Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!”

Four crossed, giant dark red claw marks, emanating a scent of tearing and decay, instantly enveloped the space where Gu Sheng stood like a death net from the Netherworld!

Gu Sheng snorted coldly, the Southern Emperor Sword in his hand emitting a clear sword hum, flowing with Emperor’s Qi, sweeping out horizontally!

”Emperor Shocking World!”

The brilliant sword light spread like golden waves, crashing into the four claw marks, shattering them into a vast shower of blood-colored light spots.

Just as the claw marks shattered, Gu Sheng’s figure flickered, deploying the movement technique ”Shadow Escape” obtained from the Eastern Emperor Secret Realm, his speed suddenly soared like an arrow merging into shadows, instantly closing the distance with Xiao Beixuan!

Xiao Beixuan, seeing Gu Sheng closing in so swiftly, his expression changed.

While swiftly retreating backward, trying to regain distance, his four arms alternated to frantically swing, casting fierce blood claw marks like a storm to seal all potential pursuit paths of Gu Sheng!

At the same time, around him began to manifest twisted, ancient, eerie texts formed from thick blood! These texts slowly rotated and surged around him, emitting a unique rhythm wave that was unsettling, a far more dangerous aura than any previous attack rapidly brewing!

Clearly, he was being driven to the brink by Gu Sheng and was preparing to use his true killing move!

Gu Sheng used the ”Heaven Peeping Skill” to perceive the ancient blood-formed texts surging around Xiao Beixuan, his inner alarm bells ringing.

These texts, twisted and ancient, emanate a primal and wicked aura not belonging to this era, completely unlike any rune system he knows, yet faintly connected with the filthy Origin Power of the Blood Demon Clan.

’This is not a power Xiao Beixuan could master alone! Behind him, besides the so-called ”Blood Ancestor,” could there be an even older, more terrifying presence secretly supporting him?’ A thought like lightning crossed Gu Sheng’s mind, sending a chill deeper into his heart.

As he was pondering, the blood light surrounding Xiao Beixuan grew more intense, and the blood claw marks wielded by the four demon arms steadily increased in power! From barely reaching the early stage of Earth King Realm, rapidly nearing the mid-stage threshold! The fierce claw wind tore through the sky, carrying a screech that corrodes Divine Souls, transforming the previously passive defense into a sudden manic counterattack!
