Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1490: Chapter 768: Sincerity

”Playing tricks!”

The middle-aged man sneered disdainfully, raising his hand with a Blood Wolf Claw, five blood-red Qi Forces tearing through the air straight at Gu Sheng’s throat.

Gu Sheng stood motionless, only gently raising his right hand.

”Buzz...”

The phantom of the Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron suddenly solidified, a golden light flashed.

The middle-aged man’s movements suddenly froze, his eyes widened in disbelief as he looked down at his neck.

”You...”

He barely uttered a word before a line of blood spurted from his neck.

”Thud!”

A head rolled to the ground, then dissipated into a wisp of black smoke.

The headless body swayed twice before falling heavily.

The entire place fell into dead silence.

Ye Yiyi covered her mouth, her pupils contracting violently.

She hadn’t seen how Gu Sheng had attacked at all, and a third-level Sect Realm strong person was... dead just like that?

Gu Sheng withdrew his hand, the phantom of the golden cauldron behind him slowly rotating.

His gaze swept over the remaining people, his voice icy.

”Who else wants to try?”

”Retreat! Quick, retreat!”

The faces of the other two Sect Realm experts changed dramatically, and without hesitation, they turned to flee.

The remaining martial artists were so frightened they scattered like birds and beasts.

Until the last aura disappeared from the perception range, the golden cauldron phantom behind Gu Sheng gradually faded.

”Gu Sheng, you...”

Ye Yiyi hurried forward, her voice trembling.

”Just now you...”

”Support me.”

Gu Sheng suddenly transmitted his voice, with a hint of weakness in it.

”Don’t show it.”

Ye Yiyi’s heart trembled, immediately understanding.

She pretended to affectionately take Gu Sheng’s arm, actually supporting him with her spiritual power in secret.

”Let’s find a safe place.”

She said softly, a sweet smile on her face, as if they were just an ordinary couple.

Gu Sheng gave an almost imperceptible nod, allowing Ye Yiyi to lead him slowly forward.

His expression remained calm, but Ye Yiyi could feel his body slightly trembling.

The two walked ”intimately” for some distance until they turned into a secluded valley.

”How are you?”

As soon as they entered the valley, Ye Yiyi released him and asked nervously.

Gu Sheng leaned against a large rock and sweat appeared on his forehead.

”It’s nothing, just overexertion.”

Ye Yiyi took out a water pouch and handed it to him.

”Just now... was that the power of the Nine Dragon Universe Cauldron?”

Gu Sheng took the water pouch and drank a sip.

”Yes.”

”But you’re clearly only at the Seventh Level of the Earth Martial Realm, how can you...”

Ye Yiyi hesitated.

Gu Sheng looked at her with deep eyes.

”Everyone has secrets, don’t they?”

Ye Yiyi was speechless.

Indeed, didn’t she also hide her identity as a core disciple of the Purple Mist Divine Sect?

”Still, thank you.”

Gu Sheng suddenly said.

”We coordinated well just now.”

Ye Yiyi’s face felt a bit warm.

”We are companions, it’s what we should do.”

Gu Sheng slightly raised the corner of his mouth, about to say something when his expression suddenly turned serious.

”They’re back.”

”What?”

Ye Yiyi looked shocked towards the mouth of the valley.

Indeed, two powerful auras were rapidly approaching.

”Hmph, just an Earth Martial Realm, yet he can kill a third-level Sect Realm, this kid must have an earth-shattering secret!”

The elder wearing a blood robe from the Green Blood Divine Sect had a fluctuating expression, eyes filled with both greed and fear.

The Second Elder of the Nine Heavens Divine Sect beside him snorted coldly, his robe fluttering with no wind, obviously equally unsettled inside.

”That sword light... is no ordinary martial technique.”

The Second Elder squinted his eyes.

”At least top-grade Earth Rank, maybe even a Heavenly Rank Martial Technique!”

The Blood Robe Elder licked his chapped lips.

”If we could obtain this martial technique...”

”Stop dreaming!”

The Second Elder interrupted unceremoniously.

”Didn’t you see how easily that kid killed the elder of the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect? Who knows how many more strikes he can make?”

The two exchanged looks, both seeing deep apprehension in each other’s eyes.

”Forget it, this is beyond our decision now.”

The Blood Robe Elder finally sighed.

”Report to the Sect Hierarch, let him decide.”

The Second Elder nodded slightly.

”That’s how it should be.”

The two figures turned into streams of light and disappeared into the sky, leaving behind only the chaotic battle scars and the lingering shocked gazes of the distant onlookers.

In a quiet courtyard east of Xiaguang City.

Ye Yiyi supported Gu Sheng into the inner chamber, carefully seating him on the bed.

Her eyes, like autumn waters, were filled with complex expressions of shock, concern, and inexpressible curiosity.

”Are you... really okay?”

She asked softly, her voice trembling.

Gu Sheng flashed a grin, a trace of defiance in his smile.

”Just minor injuries, nothing to worry about.”

With that, his True Qi shook slightly, his upper garment disintegrating into fragments, revealing his toned upper body... along with the numerous, web-like cracked wounds.

Blood slowly oozed from these cracks, staining the bed red.

”Ah!”

Ye Yiyi exclaimed and instinctively stepped back half a step.

”That’s... considered minor injuries?”

Gu Sheng was indifferent, glancing at his wounds with satisfaction.

”A last gasp from a third-level Sect Realm, causing such injuries, indicates his lack of strength.”

Ye Yiyi looked at him in disbelief.

”Are you crazy? With such injuries, a normal person would’ve long been...”

Her words stopped abruptly, as the scene before her left her utterly stunned... the wounds on Gu Sheng’s body were healing at a visible pace, the sinister cracks closing as if stitched together by an invisible hand, scabbing over, falling off, leaving only faint red marks.

”How... how is this possible?”

Ye Yiyi’s eyes widened.

”Even for a Sect Realm expert, this recovery ability is terrifying!”
