Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 432: Chapter 240: From Death Comes Life

”Kill!”

”Kill!”

...

After seeing a glimmer of hope for survival, the once despairing crowd who had abandoned all hope felt a surge of intense longing for life rise within their hearts again.

Under Linghu Qingwan’s lead, the crowd once more followed Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao as they charged toward Liu Honglie.

”Ha! Perfect opportunity to test the strength of this body of mine!”

Liu Honglie let out a cold chuckle, striding forward like a giant. His massive figure resembled a moving mountain, fast and decisive. This time, he didn’t resort to Martial Arts but simply swung his fists, attacking purely with the power of his body.

Even so, his might was still astonishing. Every punch he casually threw seemed imbued with the force of ten thousand pounds.

Despite Liu Honglie’s massive size, he was incredibly agile. He didn’t even grant Lin Tianhao and Gu Sheng the chance to utilize their Martial Arts, closing in and striking directly with his punches.

Liu Honglie’s fists, roughly the size of millstones, were overwhelming in their momentum and visual impact.

Lin Tianhao and Gu Sheng dared not be careless, raising their weapons for close combat.

The weapons in their hands were no ordinary objects, and yet, these normally razor-sharp Mystical-level Treasures now seemed as mundane as ordinary blades.

No matter how Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao slashed or thrust, they couldn’t wound Liu Honglie. Their ferocious assault landed on his body, merely leaving shallow marks.

Those marks were quickly nourished by the Demonic Qi surrounding his body, vanishing almost instantly, as if the two of them had never attacked at all.

If even Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao’s attacks were this ineffective, it went without saying for the others.

Although the others unleashed their strongest Martial Arts, Liu Honglie simply pushed his hands forward lightly. A curtain of darkness rose instantly, and the myriad star-like attacks landed upon it without causing the slightest ripple.

In stark contrast, Liu Honglie’s assaults against Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao were savage to a fault. His millstone-sized fists carried a terrifying power, leaving them stunned with each blow. The sheer force shook their hands, causing them to tremble and numb.

The three exchanged hundreds of moves in mere minutes.

Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao’s strength now rapidly waned. They forced Zhao Honglie back before quickly retreating to create distance.

Watching the two retreat, Zhao Honglie did not pursue but instead burst into laughter: ”Haha! I thought you’d be something impressive, but it turns out you’re nothing special! Human techniques truly are crude and pathetic, worthless against me!”

Seeing Zhao Honglie’s overbearing arrogance, Lin Tianhao gritted his teeth in hatred but was powerless to act. At this moment, the medicinal energy coursing through him and Gu Sheng was rapidly dissipating. It wouldn’t be long before both of them fell into exhaustion and ran out of strength.

”Junior Brother Lin, can you still activate the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell?”

Lin Tianhao approached Gu Sheng and asked softly.

When Gu Sheng faced Kang Tai earlier, his activation of the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell and Prajna Heart Sutra had left a deep impression on Lin Tianhao.

Both the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell and Prajna Heart Sutra had shown significant restraint against Demonic Qi. Given the current situation, their combined strength alone could not defeat Liu Honglie, so Lin Tianhao could only pin his hopes on Gu Sheng.

The Vajra Demon Suppression Bell resided within Gu Sheng, but ordinarily, Gu Sheng couldn’t even sense its existence, much less actively summon it.

Since the start of the battle, he had tried countless methods to activate the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell, but no matter what he did, the bell remained unresponsive.

Gu Sheng’s expression grew solemn as he tightly clutched his storage pouch, hesitation flickering in his eyes.

Though he couldn’t summon the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell, he could use Spirit Stones to activate the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll.

The Demon Suppression Golden Scroll, while not as miraculous as the Vajra Demon Suppression Bell, possessed tremendous power. Its only drawback was that its attacks were indiscriminate; anything within its effective range would suffer suppression.

The terrifying suppression of the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll was beyond even Gu Sheng’s ability to withstand, let alone the others.

Activating the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll might suppress Zhao Honglie, but it could just as easily claim the lives of everyone present.

”Weak humans, stop struggling unnecessarily and merge into me willingly! It is your ultimate honor to become nourishment for the Holy Demon Clan!”

Zhao Honglie waved his large hand, and the Ten Thousand Soul Banner once again returned to his grasp.

As Zhao Honglie infused it with immense Demonic Qi, the mysterious patterns on the Ten Thousand Soul Banner gleamed with dazzling brilliance, and a terrible aura began spreading out.

Under the oppressive force of this aura, even Gu Sheng felt his body stiffen, his movements becoming sluggish.

Gu Sheng’s face changed drastically, and the hesitation in his eyes quickly transformed into resolve.

”Enough dithering! If I wait any longer, I won’t even have the chance to use my remaining methods!”

No longer hesitating, Gu Sheng opened his storage pouch and pulled out the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll, along with several high-quality Spirit Stones.

”Demon Suppression Golden Scroll!”

Upon seeing the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll in Gu Sheng’s hand, the calm expression on Zhao Honglie’s face finally showed a hint of panic.

Although Gu Sheng hadn’t activated the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll yet, Zhao Honglie could already sense its terrifying purifying energy.

When the Demon Suppression Golden Scroll combined with the Four Symbols Demon Suppression Array, even a Demon General could be suppressed, let alone Zhao Honglie.

Within the Holy Demon Clan, even the lowest-ranked Demon Soldiers existed above the Bone Refining stage.

The Holy Demon Seed inside Liu Honglie’s body started violently trembling, warning him of impending danger.
