Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 988: Chapter 518: Bloodbath at Purple Mist Peak

The Great Elder was furious, a surge of purple divine power enveloped the entire Purple Mist Peak. He stared angrily at Gu Sheng, raised his hand with a wave, and the purple divine power immediately surrounded Gu Sheng and the others!

Feeling the oppression from the Great Elder, Gu Sheng coldly curled his lips.

”Bullying with power? You should first see if you have the ability!”

Summoning the small tripod, he lifted it into the air. Gu Sheng’s fingertip sparked, and the small tripod buzzed loudly, swiftly breaking through the purple divine power, shielding everyone.

Seeing him easily shatter his threat, the Great Elder’s expression changed.

”Disciples of Purple Mist Peak, at my command, eliminate Gu Sheng and his group!”

With the command issued, the masses of Purple Mist Peak surged forward.

The small tripod couldn’t withstand the pressure, buzzing once again.

Gu Sheng squinted his eyes and gestured to the group behind him.

”Eliminate them, rescue Huang Shan!”

They had been waiting for his command; now that it had been given, they rushed forward immediately.

Soon, the forces on both sides clashed fiercely.

As various divine powers were unleashed, cries of agony began to echo.

Gu Sheng set his sights on the Third Elder, summoned the Fire Spirit Dagger, and aimed directly at his face!

Within a few moves, the Third Elder was forced to continuously retreat.

Barely stabilizing himself, he fiercely wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth.

”Gu Sheng, it seems I underestimated you, did not expect you to possess such strength.”

Upon hearing this, Gu Sheng sneered.

”You’ve repeatedly tried to target me, yet never truly investigated my strength. Such ignorance is truly laughable!”

On hearing this, the Third Elder’s face darkened further.

”Gu Sheng, I admit you have some skill, but you must hand over the Yinchen wood. Otherwise, when the Peak Master arrives, you will not survive!”

”You’re just looking down on me.”

”Gu Sheng, I mean well!”

At these words, a hint of vexation appeared in the Third Elder’s tone.

Gu Sheng looked at him, his eyes full of disdain.

”Those who plot against my life, how can they have good intentions? Do you think a few words of coaxing will make me willingly hand over the Yinchen wood? You are dreaming!”

He intended to cleanse Purple Mist Peak with blood; reconciliation was impossible.

”Don’t forget, your person is still in my hands! If you hand over the Yinchen wood now, I can release him!”

”That’s unnecessary; I will rescue him myself.”

”Gu Sheng, I am giving you an opportunity! Otherwise, when the Peak Master arrives, he won’t be as easy to talk to!”

Saying this, he stepped forward, deliberately lowered his voice: ”Gu Sheng, now if you hand over ten pieces of Yinchen wood, I will release your person.”

Upon hearing his words, Gu Sheng raised his brow.

”Ten pieces?”

”Yes, just ten pieces, bring them out, and I’ll release the person right away!”

Gu Sheng briefly considered, then curled his lips.

”Not impossible. But I want to see my person first.”

”You can see him, but first hand over two pieces of Yinchen wood, then you may see him.”

The two sides negotiated, each pushing their demands, but it was evident the Third Elder was continually giving ground.

Gu Sheng looked at him playfully, casually took out a piece of Yinchen wood.

”Just one piece, let me see Huang Shan.”

Seeing the Yinchen wood, the Third Elder’s eyes lit up.

”This Yinchen wood is indeed superb; if crafted into a weapon, it would certainly be a fine sword!”

Speaking of this, his tone carried some reproach: ”Gu Sheng, the people of Stone Village truly waste this resource. How could you use such a supreme quality for building houses?”

On hearing this, Gu Sheng showed displeasure.

”What I use it for is none of your concern. I’ll give you half an incense stick’s worth of time; if I don’t see Huang Shan, you’ll never see the Yinchen wood in this lifetime!”

Feeling Gu Sheng’s divine power surge again, the Third Elder hastily ordered someone to bring Huang Shan.

Both sides ceased fighting, each gathering behind their leaders.

The stare-down continued, killing intent still surged, yet both sides fought to restrain it.

Finally, after half an incense stick’s time, Gu Sheng heard footsteps.

He looked up, saw Huang Shan appear, bound by several men.

Only to see him bruised all over, with damaged skin on both arms, wrists and ankles shackled in Xuan Iron chains, making each step extremely difficult!

Seeing Huang Shan in this state, the men of Stone Village’s eyes reddened.

Shi Lou was about to speak, but Gu Sheng stopped him, facing the Third Elder and saying: ”Is this how you treat my people?”

On hearing this, the Third Elder was somewhat displeased.

”It’s already good enough that I kept him alive; dozens of our people at Purple Mist Peak died at his hands!”

”Gu Sheng, ten pieces of Yinchen wood, and I will release him.”

The Third Elder blocked Huang Shan with his body, directly stretched out his hand towards Gu Sheng.

Seeing his action, Gu Sheng snorted coldly.

”Third Elder, it seems the lives of people at Purple Mist Peak aren’t worth much.”

Upon hearing this, the Third Elder’s expression changed.

”Gu Sheng, what do you mean by that?”

”You know very well what I mean. Since the lives at Purple Mist Peak are so worthless, they should all die!”

With those words, Gu Sheng pushed Shi Lou forward.

As Shi Lou advanced, he himself also charged towards the Third Elder.

Seeing him attack without principle, the Third Elder immediately shouted: ”Keep an eye on that person! Today I must obtain the Yinchen wood!”

The people of Purple Mist Peak gathered again, rapidly surrounding Huang Shan.

Seeing so many people, Shi Lou did not retreat but charged straight towards them!

Gu Sheng rushed again towards the Third Elder, the Fire Spirit Dagger in his hand brimmed with divine power and he slashed fiercely at his face!

This move was swift, accurate, and fierce; even though the Third Elder was on guard, narrowly avoiding it, he was still scratched by the divine power on the Fire Spirit Dagger.

As he staggered, retreating step by step, Gu Sheng pressed the attack once more.
