Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 829: Chapter 438: Advancing One’s Realm (Part 2)

Gu Sheng didn’t pay attention, no matter how many benefits he listed, he didn’t respond.

He continued searching inside this dark purple creature.

Soon, he discovered many broken gemstones and Divine Artifacts.

These gemstones and Divine Artifacts were already abandoned, losing their original luster and power.

Gu Sheng casually tossed them aside, hoping to find other useful things.

Soon, a golden stone emitting a glowing light caught Gu Sheng’s eye.

He picked up the thumb-sized golden stone and saw some special symbols engraved on it.

Just as Gu Sheng cleared away the debris on top, a force suddenly transmitted into his body.

"It truly is a Treasure!"

Gu Sheng’s face was filled with joy.

Randomly, he sat cross-legged, trying to uncover the secrets of this golden stone.

When Gu Sheng channeled his Divine Power, the golden stone also emitted a dazzling light.

After a wave of Energy Fluctuation, Gu Sheng felt his power greatly enhanced.

He looked at the golden stone in his hand and sighed, "I didn’t expect you to enhance strength cultivation, truly a treasure!"

After finishing, a force suddenly transmitted into Gu Sheng’s body.

He suddenly discovered that he could actually absorb the energy inside this dark purple creature under the protection of the Mystic Yellow Qi barrier.

This energy, although violent, surprisingly became gentle under the harmonization of the Mystic Yellow Qi.

"If I can absorb it... doesn’t that mean I can transform all the energy of this sixth layer Fire Domain fellow into mine?"

Gu Sheng was ecstatic at heart, continuing to refine his physique.

He guided the force to the Life Spring, reaching the ocean of suffering, rising to the golden little lake.

Gradually, as the energy was absorbed, Gu Sheng felt the Life Spring within him began to ignite with a trace of true fire.

This trace of true fire was very weak yet extremely pure.

It slowly burned in Gu Sheng’s Life Spring, bringing a warm and nourishing power.

Gu Sheng was overjoyed, he didn’t expect the energy of this dark purple creature to greatly aid his cultivation.

Subsequently, he began to focus more on absorbing this energy.

Soon, with Gu Sheng’s focus, the true fire in his Life Spring became more and more vigorous.

Time quietly passed in Gu Sheng’s cultivation...

He stayed inside this dark purple creature for several months.

During this period, Gu Sheng’s Life Spring was greatly filled, and his cultivation continuously improved.

During this period, the dark purple creature begged Gu Sheng countless times.

Hoping he would come out of its body.

But Gu Sheng did not satisfy it, instead, he continued to be a "parasite", sucking the energy inside.

Finally one day, Gu Sheng felt that his Life Spring had reached a critical point, his cultivation also reached a brand new realm - Other Shore Realm.

In this realm, Gu Sheng felt that his power had surpassed previous limits.

His body and soul both underwent a new baptism.

Gu Sheng slowly opened his eyes, which sparkled with an assessing glow.

At this time, he already had enough power to leave the inside of this dark purple creature.

"Gu... Gu Sheng... aren’t you coming out yet?"

The dark purple creature now had little strength left.

It hid in a corner of the sixth layer of the Fire Domain, speaking with a hoarse voice.

"Thanks for your help, it’s time for me to leave."

Gu Sheng said with a faint smile.

The dark purple creature, having begged Gu Sheng for so long, finally heard him agree to come out.

Soon, Gu Sheng slowly walked out from inside the dark purple creature.

At the moment of parting from its body, Gu Sheng felt the surrounding temperature had already turned cold...

He looked around, seeing that the previously blazing Fire Domain now had turned lifeless, the air filled with a suppressive atmosphere.

Gu Sheng came to the side of the dark purple creature which was on its last legs.

Its breath was weak, revealing a kind of relief in its eyes.

"You finally came out."

The dark purple creature said with a hoarse voice.

Gu Sheng did not answer but stared fixedly at it.

"You absorbed all my power, which can also be considered a kind of inheritance."

"Hmm, I suppose so."

Gu Sheng nodded.

The dark purple creature looked at Gu Sheng, seemingly with some reluctance in its eyes.

Then it exhaled a long breath and with all its remaining strength said, "Gu Sheng, I... I have little time left. In a corner of the sixth layer, I have hidden... hidden a short sword left by an Ancient great being, cough, cough, cough..."

As it spoke, the dark purple creature coughed heavily a few times.

At this moment, Gu Sheng also felt that the other party no longer had any malicious intent.

They say a person’s words are kind when they are about to die.

This creature was not human, yet it had this "root of kindness".

"That sword... already... already useless to me, but for you, it helps you break through the seventh layer of the Fire Domain, escape... escape the Fire Domain... hope you..."

The dark purple creature stammered.

But before it finished speaking, the glow of the dark purple creature suddenly disappeared.

What remained were a few cold stones, with no signs of life anymore.

"Hey! Hey!"

Gu Sheng’s heart moved, hastily calling out a few times.

He didn’t expect that in the final moments of life, this dark purple creature would give such a precious thing to him.

Gu Sheng looked at the heap of cold stones, his heart mixed with complex emotions.

Originally planning to kill him, but in the end giving him the final treasure.

What is kindness?

What is evil?

What is sincerity?

What is pretense?

Gu Sheng stood in place, dazed for a dozen minutes.

"I will cherish it, thank you."

Gu Sheng slightly bowed to the heap of stones.

Next, Gu Sheng turned around, following the dark purple creature’s directions, arrived at a corner of the sixth layer.

There, he discovered a hidden cave.

"This should be it."

Gu Sheng said, walking towards the cave.

Soon, he found the ancient short sword deep in the cave.

Though this short sword looked unremarkable, Gu Sheng could feel the powerful force contained within it.

Gu Sheng stepped forward, reaching out and gently touching the short sword.

The short sword seemed to sense Gu Sheng’s presence, the sword body slightly trembled, emitting a low hum.

"Buzz..."

Gu Sheng could feel an indescribable connection between him and this sword.

It seemed to be waiting for him.

Waiting for him to unleash its full power.

"Whoosh!"

Gu Sheng drew the short sword from the sword scabbard, the blade flickering with a cold gleam in the dim light of the Fire Domain.

Just a brief contact allowed Gu Sheng to feel the fiery power contained within the sword body.

This power complemented the Mystic Yellow Qi within him, cooperating with each other.

Gu Sheng gripped the short sword, knowing that this sword would be the key to breaking through the seventh layer of the Fire Domain.

"Phew..."

He took a deep breath, starting to mobilize the Mystic Yellow Qi within, simultaneously merging the power of the short sword into it.

Instantly, Gu Sheng’s body began to emit an expanding aura.

This aura intertwined with the short sword, emitting a dazzling golden glow.

"Fire Domain seventh layer! I must break through!"

Gu Sheng, gripping the short sword, felt his confidence multiply.

Soon, Gu Sheng reached the edge of the sixth layer of the Fire Domain.

He looked with firm determination toward the unknown seventh layer, cheering himself on.

Gu Sheng closed his eyes, beginning to immerse his mind in the power of the short sword.

"It’s now!"

Gu Sheng internally shouted, suddenly opening his eyes, the eyes flashing with golden light.

He gripped the short sword tightly, concentrating all his strength on the sword’s tip.

"Whoosh!"

Gu Sheng swung the sword forward, the tip cutting through the air, trailing a golden brilliance.

This brilliance resembled a sharp blade, directly piercing the barrier of the Fire Domain seventh layer.

"Boom!"

At the moment the barrier shattered, a powerful suction drew Gu Sheng into the Fire Domain seventh layer.

Gu Sheng felt as if he were passing through a layer of invisible film, entering another world.

The fire here was even more intense, and the air was filled with a temperature nearly melting.

Gu Sheng steadied himself, feeling the flame power here was even more violent than the sixth layer!
