Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1430: Chapter 738: Evil Dragon

“There’s a murderous aura!”

“Conceal your presence within three breaths.”

Gu Sheng’s voice was low as his right hand traced a profound path in the Void, enveloping the two of them in a barely perceptible transparent shield.

“There’s a strong enemy approaching, at least three in the Sect Realm.”

Shadow’s expression turned solemn at the words, immediately kneeling on one knee.

“I swear to protect my master with my life!”

Just as she finished speaking, a fluctuation in space emanated from the distant sky.

Initially, Shadow did not notice anything unusual, but as time passed, her expression grew serious—it was true that many powerful figures were approaching!

“Boom!”

A figure broke through the sky; it was the Palace Master of Wanling Palace, Xiao Xuanze.

He landed before Gu Sheng, his face ashen.

“Young Master Gu, terrible news! That scoundrel Zhao Qianhuan has broken through to the Sect Realm, and now he’s storming our mountain gate with two other strong cultivators of the same realm and hundreds of cultivators!”

Gu Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Zhao Qianhuan?”

“Yes, the remnant of the Zhao family whom I severely injured with a single sword strike when he was at the peak of the Heavenly Martial realm half a month ago.”

Xiao Xuanze gritted his teeth.

“I never expected his injuries not only healed, but he also broke through to the Sect Realm!”

An ear-splitting explosion resounded from afar, causing the entire Wanling Palace to tremble. Xiao Xuanze’s expression darkened further.

“The Sect Protection Array won’t hold much longer! Young Master Gu, I’ll stay behind to hold them off; please Lady Shadow, take him and my daughter and leave quickly!”

Gu Sheng’s eyes showed surprise.

“Mr. Xiao doesn’t want me to assist in the battle?”

Xiao Xuanze gave a bitter smile.

“They’re coming with full force; there must be a greater power behind them. Your esteemed identity, if lost here, Wanling Palace would be guilty unto death!”

“Father!”

A graceful figure flew over; it was Xiao Mengdie.

Her eyes were red.

“I will not leave! I want to live and die with the Sect!”

“Foolishness!”

Xiao Xuanze roared angrily.

“Now is not the time for willfulness!”

“Crack—”

A crisp sound echoed, as if glass had shattered. Following it was an earth-shattering roar; the Sect Protection Array was completely broken!

“Hahaha, Xiao Xuanze, today is the day of Wanling Palace’s annihilation!”

Zhao Qianhuan’s chilling voice filled the sky.

“Ten Thousand Spirits Sky Sealing Cover, rise!”

A golden shield that blocked out the sky descended, enveloping the entirety of Wanling Palace. Runes flowed across its surface, exuding an oppressive presence.

“Not good!”

Xiao Xuanze’s face changed drastically.

“This is the Zhao family’s treasure, it can lock space and cut off communication!”

Two figures in black flew out from behind Zhao Qianhuan, charging directly at Xiao Xuanze.

Xiao Xuanze shouted.

“Lady Shadow, take them away!”

With that, he swung his sword to meet the two Sect Realm cultivators.

Shadow grabbed Gu Sheng and Xiao Mengdie.

“Pardon me!”

The three soared into the sky.

“Trying to escape?”

Zhao Qianhuan sneered, raising his hand to unleash a torrent of True Qi to sweep toward the three.

Shadow immediately set a defensive barrier, but the immense impact still sent them flying dozens of feet backward.

With a “bang,” the three crashed into the golden shield, which remained unmoved.

Gu Sheng looked at the laughing Zhao Qianhuan ahead.

This elder of the recently Sect Realm-ascended Wanling Palace was surrounded by unstable spirals of Spiritual Energy, clearly, his realm was not yet solidified.

The explosive shockwaves made his white hair dance wildly. Xiao Mengdie, at the peak of the Earth Martial realm, was already forced to her knee by the pressure, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth.

“Go help Xiao Xuanze.”

Gu Sheng suddenly said, his voice chillingly calm.

“The battle on the plaza side is more crucial.”

Shadow suddenly turned her head, the pupils beneath her mask contracting.

“Are you insane? Without Sect Realm protection, you can’t withstand even a casual blow from him!”

“Three breaths.”

Gu Sheng’s right hand grasped the air, and a transparent longsword composed entirely of Gang Qi formed in his palm.

“Give me three breaths to prepare.”

Zhao Qianhuan’s maniacal laughter suddenly closed in, his hands performed a Sealing, and boundless Spiritual Energy transformed into hundreds of blue arrows.

“Two ants still have the leisure to convey messages?”

The rain of arrows whistled down, the air torn with a piercing screech.

Shadow’s black robe suddenly inflated, countless shadow threads spewing from her sleeves, weaving into a dense net at the critical moment.

The blue arrows clashed with the shadows, producing the sound of clashing metal. Shadow grunted, taking three steps back, dark red seeping from beneath her mask.

“Go!”

Gu Sheng shouted fiercely.

Shadow gave him a deep look before suddenly transforming into twelve black shadows scattering in all directions.

Zhao Qianhuan was about to pursue when he saw a bright sword light heading straight for his throat, forcing him to defend. The Gang Qi longsword collided with his Protective True Qi, erupting in a blinding white light.

“Earth Martial realm trash dares to block me?”

Zhao Qianhuan, finally seeing his opponent, laughed in anger, casually waving his right hand, causing a shockwave composed purely of Sect Realm True Qi to erupt.

The air was compressed into a visible transparent pillar, gouging a three-zhang deep trench as it passed.

Xiao Mengdie closed her eyes in despair.

The power of this strike could pulverize ten Earth Martial realms into a bloody pulp.

“Break!”

A cold voice sounded.

Xiao Mengdie opened her eyes to see Gu Sheng’s Gang Qi longsword suddenly flare with crimson-gold patterns, the tip striking precisely at the core of the True Qi pillar.

The imagined crushing did not occur; the seemingly fragile longsword pierced into the True Qi pillar, its patterns flaring brightly, disintegrating the entire shockwave from within.

Boom!

The clash of two forces produced an explosion that flattened a hundred-zhang area, tossing a dozen disciples caught in battle.

Zhao Qianhuan’s smile froze, staring incredulously at his dissipating True Qi.

“Impossible…”

“A Wasted Sect Realm is still a Wasted Sect Realm.”

Gu Sheng shook his slightly broken tiger mouth, blood dripping down the sword hilt, his tone full of mockery.

“Forcing a breakthrough with Elixir Pills, even your True Qi purity is inferior to the peak of the Heavenly Martial realm.”

This statement utterly enraged Zhao Qianhuan.

Veins bulged on his forehead, and his hands suddenly formed a series of complex Dharma Seals.
