Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 1249: Chapter 648: Too Much Nonsense (Part 2)

"There are remnants of a Thunder Element Technique. It’s Shen Hua’s ’Thunder Shocking Palm.’"

Zhang Zuo, who had been silent, suddenly opened his eyes, with a gleam in his pupils.

"It’s not just Shen Hua and Wei Feng, there are two other auras as well."

His nostrils twitched slightly.

"One is cold as ice, the other hot as fire."

Zhang Zhishang’s eyes sparkled.

"It’s Gu Sheng and that Ling Xiao!"

He rubbed his hands together excitedly.

"Looks like those two fools Shen Hua and Wei Feng want to monopolize the secret!"

"Pursue!"

Zhang Zuo spoke concisely, his figure already shooting out.

The Black Blade in his hand shimmered coldly under the moonlight, with strands of black Qi winding around the blade.

The three of them tacitly refrained from notifying Gong Xuefeng and the others nearby, individually employing their movement techniques in pursuit.

...

Deep in the forest, Gu Sheng suddenly halted.

"They’re here."

Ling Xiao’s expression was grave.

"Three in the Heavenly Palace Realm, one of them in the Late Stage. We are no match."

Gu Sheng’s lips curved into a bizarre smile.

"Just what I hoped for."

"Are you mad?"

Ling Xiao lowered his voice.

"Zhang Zuo’s ’Black Evil Blade’ can even injure a Heavenly Palace Realm Peak!"

Gu Sheng’s eyes were filled with excitement.

"You leave first; I have a clever plan."

Ling Xiao wanted to say more but was stopped by Gu Sheng raising his hand.

"Trust me. You head east, I’ll go west. We’ll meet at the usual place in fifteen minutes."

Seeing the determination on Gu Sheng’s face, Ling Xiao bit his lip.

"Don’t die." With that said, he flashed away into the forest to the east.

Gu Sheng watched Ling Xiao leave, his eyes increasingly filled with battle intent.

He deliberately lingered briefly to ensure that the pursuers could sense his aura before speeding off towards the area with the densest Yin Qi to the west.

"Over there!" Zhang Zuo shouted fiercely, his speed suddenly increasing.

"Boom!"

Zhang Zuo’s black blade light descended, tearing through the air with a piercing shriek.

Gu Sheng did not evade, his right fist suddenly striking out!

"Courting death!"

Zhang Zuo sneered, as if already envisioning the bloody scene of Gu Sheng’s arm being severed.

The next moment, his smile froze.

Gu Sheng’s fist collided with the blade light, exploding with the sound of clashing metals!

Ancient runes appeared on the fist, forcibly shattering the black blade light!

"Impossible!"

Zhang Zuo’s pupils shrank drastically. This strike was enough to cleave a mountain, yet it was blocked by the flesh body of a mere Early Stage Heavenly Palace Realm cultivator?

Before he could react, Gu Sheng’s fist had already pierced through the shattered blade light, thundering heavily against his chest.

"Pff—"

Zhang Zuo spat out a mouthful of blood, his body flying backward over ten meters, crashing into several stone pillars before barely coming to a halt.

Looking down at the fist seal on his chest, his armor was already dented, and three ribs were broken.

"Your flesh body...can’t be this strong!"

Zhang Zuo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face full of shock.

Gu Sheng shook his slightly numb right fist and coldly laughed.

"Senior Brother Zhang’s Black Evil Blade, is nothing much."

Then he slipped into the complex terrain ahead filled with bizarre stones.

Those stones were strangely shaped, their surfaces marked by the erosions of time, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.

More bizarre was the dense Yin Qi seeping from the cracks between the stones, making the entire area resemble a Ghost Realm.

"Chase! We mustn’t let him escape!"

Zhang Zuo roared, yet secretly transmitted sound to Yu Wenbai and Zhang Zhishang.

"Be careful, this kid is strange!"

Yu Wenbai and Zhang Zhishang arrived just in time to witness the scene of Zhang Zuo being repelled, both faces filled with shock.

"Senior Brother Zhang, are you alright?"

Zhang Zhishang tightly gripped his folding fan, vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

Zhang Zuo’s face was as dark as water.

"Careless. This kid’s flesh body strength rivals the Peak of the Heavenly Palace Realm, we must handle him carefully."

"Peak flesh body?"

Yu Wenbai gasped in shock.

"He’s clearly only Early Stage Heavenly Palace Realm!"

"Divide and act."

Zhang Zuo gritted his teeth and said.

"Junior Brother Yu will guard the periphery, preventing his escape. Junior Brother Zhang will follow me inside to search!"

Yu Wenbai nodded in agreement, the small bronze shield in his hand gleaming brightly, guarding the only exit in the rocky area.

Zhang Zuo and Zhang Zhishang simultaneously charged into the cluster of boulders.

Yin Qi immediately wrapped around them, making their Spiritual Power sluggish.

"Damn, there’s something strange about this place!"

Zhang Zhishang frowned, waving his folding fan to dispel the surrounding Yin Qi.

"My Divine Sense is being suppressed by seventy percent!"

Zhang Zuo didn’t answer; he stared intently at the ground, noticing a series of shallow footprints extending inward.

"This way!"

Following the traces, the two quickly arrived at an open area.

In the center stood a simple, ancient bronze bell, its surface covered with cracks and engraved with ancient runes that none could recognize.

"Ancient Reincarnation Bell?"

Zhang Zhishang exclaimed.

"The legendary Supreme Treasure that can communicate between Yin and Yang! How could it be here?"

Greed flickered in Zhang Zuo’s eyes, only to be swiftly replaced by vigilance.

"Be careful, that guy might be hiding nearby!"

Backs against each other, the two scanned their surroundings warily.

The Yin Qi was too heavy, even Zhang Zuo’s Divine Sense only covered a radius of ten yards.

At this moment, Gu Sheng, hiding in the shadow of rocky terrain behind the bell, had already accumulated horrific power in his right fist.

His veins bulged, and faint golden light flowed beneath his skin, indicating the Heaven-breaking Fist was poised for action.

"Three... two... one..."

Gu Sheng silently counted in his heart, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Boom!"

Gu Sheng rushed out, his right fist aimed directly at Zhang Zuo’s back heart! The fist wind tore through the air, emitting a sharp whistle!

"Watch out!"

Zhang Zhishang was the first to notice, his folding fan snapping open, forming a wind wall instantaneously.

Still a step too late.

Gu Sheng’s fist pierced through the wind wall, weakened by only thirty percent, still heavily impacting Zhang Zuo’s right shoulder!

"Crack!" The crisp sound of bones cracking echoed.

"Ah!" Zhang Zuo let out a heartrending scream, his body flying horizontally and crashing into a fish-shaped rock.

The rock shattered, a testament to the terrifying power of the punch!

"Gu Sheng! I will grind your bones to dust!!"

Zhang Zuo’s bloodied body, his right arm limp, left shoulder caved in from Gu Sheng’s punch, yet he still roared, eyes burning with overwhelming hatred.

He suddenly stomped the ground, using the fish-shaped stone wing to flip himself up, the Evil Qi on the Black Evil Blade surging madly, transforming into a jet-black Blade Aura, slashing straight for Gu Sheng’s head!

At the same time, Yu Wenbai also shouted angrily, his blue longsword bursting into a dazzling sword light, blocking all of Gu Sheng’s escape routes!

"Seeking death!"

Gu Sheng snorted coldly, his palm revealing an ancient, unadorned bronze bell—Ancient Reincarnation Bell!

"Dong—"

The bell tolling reverberated, sending invisible sound waves sweeping outwards, Yu Wenbai’s sword aura instantly shattered, his entire body was blown back dozens of yards, blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Meanwhile, Gu Sheng seized the gap this moment created, charging directly at Zhang Zuo!

Just as Zhang Zuo was about to swing his blade down, a terrifying pressure erupted from the rock behind him.

An intangible force pressed down mercilessly!

Unprepared, Zhang Zuo was forced to cough up blood, his bones cracking, his aura plummeting!

"What’s happening?!"

He was utterly horrified, unable to react.

"Die!"

Gu Sheng seized the opportunity, his figure tearing through the Void, appearing instantly before Zhang Zuo, his right fist glowing brilliantly, Heaven-breaking Fist unleashing with full force!

"No—"

Zhang Zuo’s pupils shrank rapidly, only managing to let out a desperate howl, and the next moment—

"Bang!"

His head exploded, blood and brain matter splattering, his headless body fell heavily!

A Late Stage Heavenly Palace Realm powerhouse—Zhang Zuo, dead!

Gu Sheng shook the blood off his fist, turning his cold gaze towards Yu Wenbai.

At this moment, Yu Wenbai was still shocked by Zhang Zuo’s death, only awakening suddenly when Gu Sheng approached!

"You... you killed Brother Zhang?!"

Yu Wenbai’s voice trembled.

"Now, it’s your turn."

Gu Sheng’s tone was cold, directly charging forward!

Yu Wenbai’s strength was similar to Wei Feng’s; if it were a one-on-one, he might be able to maneuver a bit.

But now his heart was in chaos, and without Zhang Zuo’s support, he couldn’t resist Gu Sheng’s assault at all!

"Green Gang Protection!"

Yu Wenbai gritted his teeth and summoned the small bronze shield, attempting to block.

"Break!"

Gu Sheng punched out, the small bronze shield instantly cracking, Yu Wenbai was blown back spitting blood!

"No! You can’t kill me! I’m a Core Disciple of the Luotian Sect; if you kill me, the sect will never let you go!"

Yu Wenbai shouted in terror.

"Such a chatterbox."​
