Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 894: Chapter 471: Setting Up the Array

Then, Gu Sheng strode forward and looked at Shadow with disdain, saying loudly: "No, it was me. If you want revenge, come and find me."

Shadow’s eyes fell on Gu Sheng, a flash of surprise in his gaze.

He hadn’t expected this young man to have such courage, daring to stand up in this situation.

"Alright, since you admit it, don’t blame me for being rude."

Shadow sneered, the large knife in his hand gleamed coldly in the sunlight.

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, and a powerful Divine Power began to surge around him.

"Come on, I really want to see how much skill you have."

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

The mountain villagers of Stone Village watched nervously, their hearts in their throats.

Elder Shi and Master Zhang exchanged a glance, knowing Gu Sheng’s strength was not to be underestimated.

But Shadow was also not easily defeated.

If Gu Sheng struggled, they were ready to intervene at any moment.

"Hyah!"

Shadow urged his horse forward, swinging his large knife as he charged at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng stood motionless, Divine Power swirling around him, forming an invisible barrier.

Just as Shadow’s knife was about to strike Gu Sheng, Gu Sheng suddenly dodged.

His body disappeared from its original spot like a shadow.

The next instant, he appeared in front of Shadow’s horse.

He lightly struck with his palm, and a powerful Divine Power directly hit Shadow’s chest.

"Ah..."

Shadow screamed as he was knocked flying away.

He landed heavily on the ground, and his knife fell from his grip.

Shadow rolled back onto his feet with a clever move.

"Boss..."

The other bandits saw this and rushed forward.

Seeing their boss was unharmed, they all furiously turned their gaze to Gu Sheng.

"Courting death!"

In an instant, a dozen bandits with steel knives charged at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng stood his ground, calmly observing the bandits.

He knew these bandits were not born evil.

In fact, many of them were good people, forced down this path by circumstances.

Therefore, Gu Sheng did not want to hurt them.

He only wished to show them that violence is not the only solution.

"Kill!"

The bandits waved their steel knives and charged at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng’s lips curled into a small smile, gently stirring the Divine Power within him.

From the Life Spring within his body, he extracted only a strand of Divine Power.

This power was like a small stream, but for ordinary people, it held astonishing energy.

"Whoosh!"

With a flick of Gu Sheng’s hand, the Divine Power swept toward the bandits like a tempest.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

The bandits felt an invisible force striking them head-on, their steps involuntarily retreating several meters.

Some even fell directly to the ground.

They looked at Gu Sheng in shock, unable to understand how this young man accomplished it.

"Boss, this guy is really strange!"

"Yeah, truly like seeing a ghost!"

"How did he do it? Demon Art?"

Several bandits whispered to Shadow.

Shadow frowned, looking at Gu Sheng with disdain in his eyes.

He thought Gu Sheng had exerted all his strength but hadn’t harmed even one person.

That made him think Gu Sheng was merely a novice in the Sea Realm.

"All of you, stand down, I’ll handle him."

Shadow gestured for the other bandits to step aside.

When the bandits heard their boss was going to act, they quickly withdrew to the side.

"Boss, kill him! Show him our power."

Someone cheered behind Shadow.

Shadow walked forward, arms crossed in front of his chest, looking disdainfully at Gu Sheng.

"Hey! Kid, you’re also a cultivator?"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly and didn’t deny it: "Yes, I’m also a cultivator."

"Hmph!"

Shadow snorted coldly, "I’m giving you two options now!"

"Oh? What are the two options?"

Gu Sheng immediately became interested, surprised that even in this critical moment, he was given two choices.

"First, surrender willingly and let my brothers tie you up to settle this matter."

Shadow’s lips curled in a superior manner.

Gu Sheng rubbed his chin, shook his head, and said: "No, no, no, that’s too lame, what’s the second?"

"The second is to join me, I promise you’ll have a good life."

Shadow spoke with a look of longing in his eyes.

Gu Sheng saw his expression and felt his sincere desire to recruit talent.

After all, anyone capable of holding off so many men alone was surely admirable.

"Xiao Sheng..."

Master Zhang, standing nearby, worriedly hoped Gu Sheng wouldn’t agree to Shadow’s terms.

But before the words left his mouth, Elder Shi stopped him, "Old Five, don’t worry, he knows what to do."

Master Zhang glanced at Elder Shi and held back his words.

Just then, Gu Sheng shook his head and said disdainfully: "The second option is too disgraceful, I refuse to associate with bandits like you!"

"Hmph, don’t pretend to be noble here."

Shadow sneered, "Since you won’t submit, let’s have a duel and see who the true stronger one is."

Gu Sheng immediately showed excitement, nodded and agreed: "Alright, I accept your challenge."

Shadow saw how easily Gu Sheng agreed, suddenly feeling uncertain.

But with the atmosphere at this peak, he had to keep up the act.

Especially with those brothers watching him from behind, he couldn’t embarrass himself!
