Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1163 605: Useless Person (Part 2)

Under Gu Sheng's attacks, the disciples were utterly powerless. Before long, more than half of the disciples from the Six Great Holy Lands lay dead. The ones still alive were mostly the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters of various sacred lands.

The Holy Sons and Daughters were exerting every ounce of their strength to evade Gu Sheng's relentless pursuit.

They pulled out various precious Magic Artifacts and Spiritual Artifacts from their storage rings, hurling them at Gu Sheng in a desperate attempt. They detonated these artifacts, hoping the resulting shockwaves and smoke would hinder Gu Sheng's advance.

On the Holy Road, the sky was filled with flames, deafening explosions rang out, and thick smoke spread across the area.

Some took advantage of this precious opportunity, desperately racing toward the exit of the Immortal Temple. They had only one thought in mind: to escape this terrifying place, to escape Gu Sheng's pursuit.

"Since that's the case, I'll kill you all first."

Noticing he couldn't completely wipe out everyone, Gu Sheng focused his attention on the few he most desired to kill. Kunpeng Taoist naturally topped the list.

Right then, Kunpeng Taoist was stealthily moving deep within the Blood River, his body swiftly gliding through the waters.

He had only one thought: to escape to safety through the Blood River.

While swimming, he cautiously monitored his surroundings, fearing that Gu Sheng might catch up.

Unfortunately, his aura was soon detected by Gu Sheng. Upon sensing Kunpeng Taoist's presence, Gu Sheng charged toward the Blood River.

His speed was astonishing, and as Gu Sheng dashed toward the Blood River, Kunpeng Taoist sensed danger too.

With a sudden burst, he shot out from the depths of the Blood River, desperately fleeing toward the exit. At the moment of escape, he launched an attack using Soul Power. Concentrating his mind, he gathered his Soul Power into an invisible force, aiming it at Gu Sheng.

"Hmph!"

Gu Sheng was well-prepared, quickly mobilizing Soul Power within his Sea of Consciousness to form a defensive barrier. This barrier steadfastly blocked Kunpeng Taoist's Soul Power attack.

Gu Sheng's body closed in on Kunpeng Taoist. His overwhelming physical aura completely drowned Kunpeng Taoist.

Despite just defeating Qiankun Venerate King and consuming a large amount of Spiritual Power, Gu Sheng's Physical Strength remained terrifyingly abundant, more than enough to massacre Kunpeng Taoist several times over.

"Haha, we can't let Xiao do all the work, let's join in!"

Luo Jun stood by, watching Gu Sheng wreak havoc, feeling the heat of battle and itching to join in.

He shouted to the disciples of Tianlan Sacred Land, "These people are despicable, they definitely deserve to die. Let's all step in and kill them!"

Led by Gongsun Yue, the disciples of Tianlan Sacred Land responded one after another.

They had long suffered enough from the targeting by members of the Six Great Holy Lands on the Holy Road. If it weren't for Gu Sheng, they would have faced countless deaths already.

Now, seeing an opportunity for revenge, their fighting spirit surged as they pursued the fleeing Holy Land disciples.

The disciples of the Six Great Holy Lands were solely focused on escaping, no longer having the mindset to fight them to the death.

They were utterly demoralized, their steps faltering, unable to withstand the attacks from the Tianlan Sacred Land disciples. One after another, they were chased down and eliminated.

Among them, Gongsun Yue was the bravest. With a longsword in hand, she moved freely through the crowd. Every swing of her sword claimed another enemy's life.

"Let me go, I can promise you anything." Kunpeng Taoist realized his dire situation, with allies around unable to lend aid.

He could only plead with Gu Sheng for mercy. His voice trembled, his face full of imploring. Though begging for mercy, his heart was bleeding.

For a proud genius like him, begging others for mercy was worse than death. To survive and have a chance to seek revenge on Gu Sheng, he had to set aside his dignity.

"Haha, what qualifications do you have to negotiate with me?" Upon hearing Kunpeng Taoist's words, Gu Sheng scoffed, disdain evident in his tone.

Kunpeng Taoist always scorned him, maintaining an aloof superiority. Now, Kunpeng Taoist tasted the bitterness of being looked down upon.

"I do, I have a bargaining chip," Kunpeng Taoist replied, ignoring Gu Sheng's disdain.

"Oh? What bargaining chip? Tell me." Hearing this, Gu Sheng became a bit intrigued. He paused and looked at Kunpeng Taoist, curious to hear what the other might say.

"Don't you fancy Murong Qingcheng? I know she even came to annul her engagement with you." Kunpeng Taoist said, "If you agree to spare me, I can make her your toy, at your disposal."

After speaking, Kunpeng Taoist stared at Gu Sheng, trying to gauge his reaction for the information he desired.

Gu Sheng paused, a smile of interest appearing on his face.

"How about it?" Seeing Gu Sheng's reaction, Kunpeng Taoist thought he had piqued Gu Sheng's interest and quickly pursued.

"You are so confident that you can make her listen to you, become a toy for me?" Gu Sheng remarked, his smile tinged with amusement.

There seemed to be some kind of relationship between Kunpeng Taoist and Murong Qingcheng, although he didn't know the exact nature of it.

"Yes, I am confident." Kunpeng Taoist responded confidently.

He was considering all options in his mind, trying to persuade Gu Sheng. This was his last chance; if he couldn't get Gu Sheng to spare him, he was surely doomed today.

Gu Sheng had always been curious about the relationship between Kunpeng Taoist and Murong Qingcheng, pondering whether it was mutual affection or something else.

Given Kunpeng Taoist's suggestion, it aligned perfectly with Gu Sheng's curiosity, piquing his interest.

"Alright then, give it a try." Gu Sheng smiled, thus offering Kunpeng Taoist a glimmer of hope. Though the words seemed casual, the deeper meaning was difficult for others to grasp at first.

"Gu Sheng, what are you doing?"

Gongsun Yue, noticing Gu Sheng agreeing to Kunpeng Taoist's terms, became confused. In her previous impression, Gu Sheng was not one to covet beauty.

Tianxuan Divine Girl and Bixuan also cast curious glances at Gu Sheng, evaluating him. Murong Qingcheng indeed possessed unparalleled beauty, enough to be the Holy Daughter of Tianlan Sacred Land.

But from what they knew of Gu Sheng, he wouldn't let desire interfere with important matters.

"Is Xiao still thinking about Murong Qingcheng the traitor?"

Zhan Yongchang murmured nearby, his tone laced with slight displeasure.

Murong Qingcheng, as a traitor to Tianlan Sacred Land, had committed many crimes in the sacred land. Even if protected by the Second Elder, returning to Tianlan Sacred Land wouldn't end well.

There was Gongsun Yue who held a higher position than Murong Qingcheng. If Gongsun Yue wanted to deal with Murong Qingcheng, she would face severe punishment even if it didn't lead to death.

If Gu Sheng truly accepted Murong Qingcheng and released Kunpeng Taoist, it would undoubtedly be a significant stain on him. The Second Elder might use this as a pretext for trouble.

"Fine, it's as you said."

Kunpeng Taoist initially only intended to try, feeling unsure, but he never imagined Gu Sheng would agree to this seemingly absurd proposal so easily. Gu Sheng's readiness was quite unexpected.

He didn't have time to dwell further, his mind focused solely on escaping alive from here. Only by surviving can he have a chance to seek vengeance against Gu Sheng.

If he died here, he would experience complete failure, nullifying all his prior efforts.

"Murong Qingcheng, come here quickly!"

Kunpeng Taoist shouted loudly at Murong Qingcheng, who was frantically fleeing.

The dialogue between Kunpeng Taoist and Gu Sheng was already overheard by Murong Qingcheng. Panicked, she fled, fearing falling into Gu Sheng's hands for torment.

"You useless person!"

Murong Qingcheng couldn't help but curse Kunpeng Taoist, her feet never stopping as she continued to run desperately.

Beside her, Refining Dragon Saintess was also visibly anxious, keeping pace closely. They had offended Gu Sheng grievously, and she knew that after dealing with Kunpeng Taoist and Murong Qingcheng, she'd be next, hence she ran with all her might.
