Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Gu Sheng dragged his weary body, and struggled to arrive beneath the Dao robe elder.

He looked up at the elder high in the sky, closed his eyes, and silently entered meditation, ready to comprehend the mysterious Daoist Technique.

Gu Sheng quietly comprehended for a while, then opened his eyes and exhaled a turbid breath, but his face appeared somewhat uncomfortable.

He had narrowly survived from Old Monster Luo He’s terrifying Body Seizing during a near-death experience, but Luo He’s attack on his Sea of Consciousness caused fatal damage, severely injuring his Soul Power, making recovery extremely difficult.

During the Enlightenment process, his Sea of Consciousness would frequently send waves of pain, seriously affecting his progress.

”Alas.” Gu Sheng sighed helplessly, a bitter expression on his face.

He forced himself to endure the pain from his Sea of Consciousness, closed his eyes again, and continued to enter a state of Enlightenment.

Despite his iron will, facing the continuous piercing pain from the Sea of Consciousness, he still felt somewhat powerless.

Gu Sheng sighed, feeling fortunate to have survived.

If losing the Holy Road Master’s inheritance was the price for surviving, he could only accept it helplessly.

Only by living on is there hope. While enduring the pain in his Sea of Consciousness, Gu Sheng gritted his teeth and continued to comprehend Daoist Techniques.

At the moment, his efficiency in comprehension was far less than before. Every time he delved into the mysteries of Daoist Techniques, the pain in his Sea of Consciousness would surge, forcing him to stop.

However, fortunately, he had an extremely strong talent for Enlightenment, gradually adapting to the pain, and his progress in comprehension also gradually returned to normal.

The events in Death Valley swiftly spread across the fifth region of the Holy Road.

People felt incredibly shocked when hearing the outcome of Wang Feng and the Mysterious Taoist nun’s battle.

Wang Feng’s power was extremely strong, yet surprisingly ended up in such a fate.

Everyone was even more surprised that Gu Sheng could survive in a desperate situation.

Everyone guessed that Gu Sheng’s survival must have been thanks to the intervention of the Holy Road Master.

No one thought that it was Gu Sheng, relying on a hidden ace within himself, who resolved this deadly dilemma.

In the depthless Blood River in Death Valley, the Mysterious Taoist nun was slowly advancing towards the Immortal Temple.

Upon learning of Wang Feng’s death, she breathed a sigh of relief. Absorbing the energy contained in the Blood River, she tried to restore her state and continue towards the Immortal Temple.

She harbored only one thought: in the final moments of her life, to protect Gu Sheng one more time.

Gu Sheng’s survival in a desperate situation indicates his destiny is incredibly fortunate, significantly increasing his chances of passing the inheritance test.

The final gateway to inheritance is a perilous, irreversible path.

Gu Sheng will either pass smoothly, gain the Holy Road Master’s inheritance, and soar in the sky...

Or fail the test like previous challengers, bound in this Death Valley forever.

Meanwhile, in an ancient city’s rundown temple, Qiankun Venerate King finally emerged from seclusion.

He stood up, felt the terrifying Spiritual Power within him, and smiled in satisfaction.

Li Xiangyang hurriedly approached to report the upheaval in Death Valley.

”Oh? Such a thing happened?” Qiankun Venerate King murmured to himself, ”I must see what has truly transpired in Death Valley.” With that, he rolled up surging Demonic Qi and swiftly headed towards Death Valley.

As he passed, the monsters along the way were punched into oblivion, unable to withstand his immense strength.

His incredible strength shocked the following Li Xiangyang, making him feel that Qiankun Venerate King’s power might have already reached the Earth Palace Realm level.

With a powerhouse like Qiankun Venerate King taking action, killing Gu Sheng should be as easy as turning over a hand.

Qiankun Venerate King’s aura rapidly approached Death Valley, followed by many cultivators eager to witness how Qiankun Venerate King would deal with Gu Sheng in Death Valley.

As Qiankun Venerate King neared Death Valley, a bell imbued with the passage of time sounded from the Immortal Mountain. The sound echoed between heaven and earth.

The Dao robe elder gently waved his sleeve, and suddenly, the mat beneath Gu Sheng emitted a purple-golden light.

The light grew stronger, transforming into a purple-gold lotus, completely enveloping Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng’s will was dragged into another world.

Meanwhile, his surroundings underwent upheaval changes. The original Immortal Mountain vanished, replaced by towering Divine Mountains rising from the ground.

At the top of the vault of heaven, stars dangled, emitting soft light. All of this was formed by Illusion Realm.

The Holy Road Master’s methods were cosmic, and the Illusion Realm created long ago had reached the point of being indistinguishable from reality, even for the Holy Land Master entering this place, finding it hard to see through the mysteries within.

The Dao robe elder’s voice slowly echoed in Gu Sheng’s consciousness: ”This final round, your will shall enter the cycle of reincarnation. This is your comprehensive test, assessing your will, Dao Heart, character, and potential.

If you fail to gain the Master’s recognition, your will shall plunge into endless reincarnation, never waking up.”

The dense miasma originally lingering in the canyon began to diminish gradually.

This subtle change initially did not attract too much attention, but gradually, some observant individuals noticed it.

As everyone pondered this change, a frail figure flew out from the depths of the Blood River.

It was the Mysterious Taoist nun, her face pale, and her aura weak, evidently having suffered considerable injuries.

She flew towards the Immortal Temple, and after entering, she meditated in the middle of the vast star river.

A purple-golden lotus quietly blossomed below her.

Upon nearing this lotus, a long-missed, ancient aura emanated from it.

She murmured to herself, ”This is the Master’s aura... ”

The Ancient Era, when gods and demons roamed the world, the Dao Techniques were Perfect between heaven and earth, ushering the Cultivation World into a Golden age.

That era birthed countless supreme beings. One of them, a man in blue named Green Peng Taoist.

He was unparalleled in his might, renowned far and wide, able to use his fingers as swords, performing the startling Sky Opening Sword technique.

The slash wielded might beyond comprehension, felling countless incredibly gifted talents, even powerful Divine Beasts found hard to withstand it.

As Sky Opening Sword unleashed, from within the purple-golden lotus enveloping Gu Sheng, arose an aura shaking the heavens.

This aura contained a fearless Dao Heart, unafraid of heaven and earth, Immortals, or anything in the world.

At the Death Valley, under the influence of this invincible aura, the originally thick miasma weakened further.

”He passed the Dao Heart test.” The Mysterious Taoist nun looked at the purple-golden lotus blooming immortal light, showing a moved expression.

Gu Sheng’s rapid passage through the Dao Heart test surprised her.

What astonished her even more was that from the aura bursting forth from Gu Sheng, she vaguely sensed a resemblance to the Master’s essence.

Recalling when a Dao robe man stood atop the Divine Mountain, his spirits high. His extraordinary talent allowed him to reach Half-step Emperor’s realm within mere centuries.

In this realm, he deciphered many secrets of heaven and earth, comprehending the mysteries of Yin Yang Life and Death, even possessing the grasp of becoming immortal.

Seeing Gu Sheng showcase such startling potential filled the Mysterious Taoist nun with excitement.

Gu Sheng’s body slightly trembled, emitting radiant immortal light. The lingering miasma around retreated as if avoiding it.

Looking at Gu Sheng shrouded in immortal light, the Mysterious Taoist nun felt excited. In just a few days, Gu Sheng consecutively passed Dao Heart and potential tests, presenting her with hope.

A Dao robe man who once reigned throughout the entire Ancient Era silently stood.
