Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 508: Chapter 278 Xuanyuan Sea

The sea wind howled, and the sails fluttered.

Gu Sheng and Lin Tianhao embarked on a new journey, heading toward the Central Province.

The Xuan Iron giant warship, akin to an ancient beast, rested silently by the shore.

The ship’s hull was forged from Xuan Iron, each piece radiating a dark metallic luster, as if capable of devouring the surrounding light.

On the warship, runes pulsated and glowed, exuding a majestic and intimidating aura.

The crowd boarded the warship, each handing over a thousand Spirit Stones, their gazes filled with curiosity and anticipation.

On this massive ship were gathered over three thousand Martial Artists, each with cultivation no less than the Golden Bone Realm, their auras powerful and sharp.

Gu Sheng stood among the crowd; his cultivation had reached the peak of the Golden Bone Realm, yet he remained inconspicuous among the many formidable warriors.

He possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, and when activated, his entire being shimmered in a golden radiance, with a sacred power seemingly surging within him.

”Hmph, a mere Golden Bone Realm at its peak dares to venture into the Xuanyuan Sea?”

A burly Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist, wielding a Fangtian Halberd, walked up to Gu Sheng, his eyes filled with disdain.

Gu Sheng’s brows slightly raised; he did not get angry but instead responded calmly:

”On the path of cultivation, strength is paramount. Though I’m at the Golden Bone Realm’s peak, it doesn’t mean I’ll fear you.”

The Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist’s eyes flashed with anger upon hearing this. He let out a loud roar, swinging the Fangtian Halberd with force, sending a sharp wave of energy slicing through the air towards Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng moved his body, instantly performing the Carefree Ascension Step. His figure turned into a blur, gracefully evading the attack. At the same time, he secretly activated the Shadow Concealment Skill, causing his form to gradually become indistinct.

The Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist was startled by this; he hadn’t expected this seemingly ordinary Golden Bone Realm Martial Artist to possess such an exceptional movement technique.

However, not losing composure, he became more cautious, keeping a vigilant eye on Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng seized the opportunity to attack, activating the Ancient Sacred Body. His entire form radiated golden light, and with a single palm strike, he conjured a massive golden palm aimed directly at the Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist’s vital spot.

The Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist quickly swung his Fangtian Halberd to defend, but the golden palm’s overwhelming strength sent his halberd flying.

”Bang!”

A loud crash echoed as the Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist was struck by the golden palm, his body sent flying and landing heavily on the deck.

He spat out blood, his eyes brimming with terror and unwillingness.

Gu Sheng did not stop. With a flash of movement, he appeared beside the Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist. His Jade Maiden Sword flicked once, followed by a strike from the Thirsty Blood Battle Axe. The corroding power of the Green Vine Demon Soul burst forth, finishing off the Martial Artist.

The surrounding crowd gasped in shock.

They never expected this seemingly ordinary peak Golden Bone Realm Martial Artist to defeat a Marrow Refining Realm expert so decisively.

”What’s the story behind this Gu Sheng? To kill a Marrow Refining Realm Martial Artist so effortlessly?”

”Looks like we’ve underestimated him. Gu Sheng’s real strength is likely far beyond the peak of the Golden Bone Realm.”

”Truly terrifying. This journey through the Xuanyuan Sea is bound to unleash a storm of battles.”

Whispers filled the air as everyone speculated about Gu Sheng’s true capabilities.

Meanwhile, Lin Tianhao stood silently on the side, observing everything with a detached gaze. He didn’t intervene, trusting that Gu Sheng was more than capable of handling the challenges.

Indeed, one after another, three or four warriors stepped forward to challenge Gu Sheng.

Their cultivation levels varied—some were higher than Gu Sheng’s, others on par.

Yet regardless of the opponent, Gu Sheng showed no fear, relying on his determined and fearless nature alongside his formidable strength to defeat each challenger.

Among the three thousand aboard, every witness murmured in awe.

No one dared challenge Gu Sheng or Lin Tianhao again. The two earned a brief respite as the warship continued its journey toward the Central Province.

Gu Sheng’s name began spreading across the Xuan Iron warship.

The warship navigated the shadowy seas under an overcast sky, the dark clouds appearing ready to unleash calamity at any moment.

Waves surged violently on the ocean’s surface, occasionally with sea monsters darting through the air or extending tentacles from the abyss, seeking to drag the crew into eternal darkness.

Of the original three thousand aboard, only two thousand remained. Those missing had succumbed to the dangers of this treacherous sea.

The ship, now seeming like Darwin’s vessel, permitted survival only for the fittest.

”Damn it, will this cursed place ever end?”

A burly Martial Artist swore angrily.

”Stop complaining. We chose this path; we must be prepared to face its dangers.”

Another, calmer Martial Artist, retorted.

”Prepared? For what? Damn it, I’m not dying here!”

The burly Martial Artist shouted furiously.

Just then, a giant sea monster suddenly leaped out of the water, its massive tentacles lashing directly at the burly Martial Artist.

The Martial Artist’s face turned pale upon seeing this; he tried to evade but was too late.

”Ah!”

A scream pierced the air as the sea monster ensnared the Martial Artist with its tentacles, dragging him into the depths below.

The scene plunged everyone on board into panic; some even attempted to jump ship to escape.

”Silence!”

A cold shout rang out—it was the captain who stepped forward, gripping a longsword. His eyes glinted chillingly as he scanned the crowd.

”Anyone daring to disrupt order again will feed the fish below!”

From within the crowd, a small-statured Martial Artist suddenly darted forward, brandishing a dagger aimed straight at the captain’s vital point.
