Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1709: Chapter 867: The Unprecedented Strongest Sect Realm! (2)

”Perception blocking?”

Gu Sheng’s heart sank; it seems that this Fate’s resting place is indeed extraordinary.

”What do you want to tell me?”

He asked.

Gu Ling’er showed a slight smugness on her face and replied.

”It’s about your Spirit Embryo Incarnation! It’s already been taken out!”

”What?”

Gu Sheng frowned. Although he had anticipated that the incarnation couldn’t be maintained for long, he hadn’t expected it to be eliminated so quickly.

”But don’t worry!”

Gu Ling’er quickly added.

”Before it got taken out, and after you entered this chamber, I wasn’t idle! I took over your plan, controlling the residual energy of the incarnation to pull off several major actions!”

She counted on her fingers, speaking like reciting precious treasures.

”I assassinated an elder with a foul temper from the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect and two arrogant genius disciples from the Longevity Divine Sect! Then I deliberately left some clues, leading them to suspect each other, thinking the other side did it! Hehe, now they’re both fighting fiercely!”

”Finally, I manipulated the incarnation, whose energy was nearly exhausted, to ’escape’ towards Xiaguang City, and before they caught up and ’killed’ it, I made some noise, prompting them to find ’evidence’ linking the incarnation slightly to Shen Wuguang’s City Lord Mansion.”

Gu Ling’er winked mischievously and smiled.

”Now, both the Heavenly Fire Divine Sect and the Longevity Divine Sect believe it’s you, Gu Sheng, colluding with Shen Wuguang, causing trouble. That unlucky Shen Wuguang seems to have been captured for interrogation by the two furious Divine Sects, and with your incarnation dead without testimony, he’s definitely taking the fall! How did I do?”

Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with surprise and appreciation after listening.

He hadn’t expected Gu Ling’er not only to execute his plan to disrupt perception perfectly but also to exceed expectations, cleverly exploiting the rivalries between the major forces to divert blame onto Shen Wuguang, undoubtedly creating favorable conditions for his upcoming actions.

”Well done, Ling’er, beyond my expectations.”

Gu Sheng complimented without holding back.

”Of course!”

Gu Ling’er proudly raised her head like a conceited little peacock.

Then, her gaze was drawn to the three Daoist Rhythms behind Gu Sheng that hadn’t fully converged. Her face showed curious expression as she leaned closer, carefully examining Gu Sheng and the mysterious aura circulating around him, unable to hold back her question.

”Bad guy, are you... forging a Dao Body? It seems really powerful!”

Gu Sheng looked at Gu Ling’er’s pure, curious eyes. Without concealing, he nodded.

”Yes, I am trying to fuse different ’Dao’ as a foundation to step into Sect Realm.”

He and Gu Ling’er share a unique spiritual bond; she was born from the catalysis of his Soul Power. To some extent, she is his closest and most trustworthy existence.

Gu Sheng looked into Gu Ling’er’s pure and concerned eyes, sensing her sincere intention to help him through their profound spiritual bond.

He pondered slightly before deciding to be straightforward, as it was a tacit understanding that needed no explanation.

”Correct, I am forging a Dao Body.”

Gu Sheng’s gaze swept over the three Daoist Rhythms behind him, his tone solemn and resolute.

”I plan to forge my legs with the Thousand Illusions Path to grant me speed and transformation; temper my arms with the God-breaking Path for supreme attack power; finally, refine my head with the most mysterious Path of Fate to open the Sea of Consciousness and discern destiny. This is the foundation for achieving the strongest Sect Realm.”

He paused, his voice lowered.

”However, this process is extremely risky. Integrating Dao Rhythms into the body is akin to forcibly imprinting the Heaven and Earth Laws onto oneself; any slight mistake may lead to destruction.”

Gu Ling’er listened and her face became serious.

She tilted her head in thought, extending two fair fingers and said.

”For the first two Dao Rhythms, the Thousand Illusions Path and the Earth Element Dao Rhyme, I can help you during the fusion!”

”You can help me?”

Gu Sheng was somewhat surprised.

”Yes!”

Gu Ling’er nodded vigorously, patting her small, barely risen chest confidently.

”Ling’er is a Heaven and Earth Spirit Embryo! Even though I’m still weak, my Innate Origin Spiritual Energy is the gentlest and purest, containing the potential of Creation.

When you fuse those two Dao Rhythms, I can mobilize the origin to protect the critical meridians and acupoints in your legs and arms, minimizing the impact and damage from the Dao Rhythms on the body, ensuring a smooth fusion process!”

But she then frowned slightly, somewhat frustratedly pointing at the Path of Fate Dao Rhythms, glowing with starry light and rich in destiny aura.

”However, this last Dao Rhythm is too ancient and too unique. I... I seem unable to help much.

In my infancy, even before I developed clear intelligence, this ’Dao’ seems to have already vanished or been concealed. I know almost nothing about it, and my original spiritual energy may be difficult to resonate effectively or provide support...”

Gu Sheng understood upon hearing this. The Path of Fate involves destiny and time-space, unfathomable; Gu Ling’er being unable to help is expected.

He nodded, agreeing with the arrangement.

”It’s okay, having your support for the first two Dao Rhythms is already a great blessing. The Path of Fate, I will handle carefully myself.”

He looked at Gu Ling’er, seriously inquiring.

”What is the cost of using your Innate Origin?”

He knows well, the more heaven-defying the ability, the greater the cost might be.

Gu Ling’er blinked her big eyes, licking her lips, showing a ’little greedy cat’ expression, pointing to the eighteen Essence Blood Pearls within Gu Sheng.

”The cost is... after each use of the origin, I need to absorb two of those Essence Blood Pearls to replenish the consumption! And, when you formally start forging the Dao Body, and I mobilize the origin to protect, there will also be great consumption, probably requiring an additional Essence Blood Pearl to sustain!”

Three Life Essence Bloods from a peak Sect Realm Golden-winged Roc! This cost is undoubtedly enormous, any drop can trigger bloody chaos.

Yet Gu Sheng had little hesitation and agreed immediately.

”Alright! We’ll do as you say!”

In comparison to the successful fusion Dao and achieving the strongest Sect Realm, three drops of Essence Blood are entirely worth it.

”Great!”

Gu Ling’er cheerfully smiled, then her face turned stern, not delaying any further.

She extended her right index finger, opened her mouth, revealing two sharp, cold-glinting canine teeth, gently biting her fingertip.

A drop of crystal-clear, yet unimaginably containing Life Origin aura, pale golden blood seeped from her fingertip.

She used her finger as a pen, using her Innate Spirit Blood as ink, swiftly drawing in the air! Complex, ancient, and naturally Dao Rhythmic pale golden runes appeared one after another with her fingertip’s dance, emitting gentle yet powerful energy fluctuations.

Drawing these runes clearly took a great toll on Gu Ling’er.

Her small face became visibly pale, her smooth forehead glistening with fine sweat, her eyes showing deep fatigue, yet she bit her lip, fully focused.

Finally, with the last stroke, dozens of pale golden runes interconnected and converged, ultimately forming a unique and enigmatic, slowly rotating Spirit Array prototype, hovering before Gu Sheng, exuding a gentle and resilient aura.

”Done... Quick... Fuse the first Dao Rhythm, Ling’er... Won’t last long...”

Gu Linger’s voice, weak, urged.

Seeing her state, Gu Sheng was moved, he dared not waste time.

He immediately focused his spirit, his powerful spiritual power surged forth, precisely guiding the sharp and space-cutting Thousand Illusions Path Daoist Rhythm light cluster from behind him, slowly merging towards his legs!

...

Meanwhile, in another area of the main hall within the Secret Realm.

Qing Feng and the Five Poison Divine Sect’s little princess disguised as an ordinary girl, entered a grand hall hidden within the massive mountain.

The inner space of this main hall is far larger than it appears from the outside, as if the entire mountain range had been hollowed out. As far as the eye could see, the halls were endless, seemingly numbering in the thousands, with corridors winding, eaves sharp, majestic, yet exuding a sense of desolation and antiquity.
