Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 913: Chapter 480: Mutual Slaughter (2)

Gu Sheng’s heart raced as he faced more and more Lizardmen, his mind rapidly calculating various escape plans.

In desperation, Gu Sheng suddenly remembered a secret technique he had mastered—the Great Void Skill.

This was a spell from the Ji family of the Southern Domain, and it was because he had secretly learned this skill that the Ji family had driven him to the Northern Territory.

This spell could temporarily hide him in the void, evading the enemy’s sight and perception.

Subsequently, Gu Sheng drew a trace of Divine Power from the Life Spring and recited the Great Void Skill Spell.

Soon, his body gradually became transparent and eventually completely vanished into the void.

Gu Sheng thought that after hiding in the void, he would escape the Lizardmen’s attacks.

But he quickly discovered that these Lizardmen seemed to possess an extraordinary sense of smell.

They did not leave because of Gu Sheng’s disappearance; instead, like beasts smelling blood, they circled beneath the void where Gu Sheng hid and refused to disperse.

"This..."

Gu Sheng’s heart sank, knowing this was not a solution.

Once the effect of the Great Void Skill waned, he would have nowhere to escape.

At this moment, he noticed a noise at the cave entrance.

He focused his gaze, it turned out to be several cultivators from the Qingyun Sect.

"Why are they here? Didn’t they leave earlier due to the cold?"

Gu Sheng secretly muttered in his heart.

At the same time, Gu Sheng prepared to retract the Great Void Skill to warn them about the Lizardmen.

If these Lizardmen really attacked them, I’m afraid none of them would survive!

But just as Gu Sheng was about to retract the Void Skill, he suddenly realized these cultivators all looked composed, as if they were not afraid of the Lizardmen at all!

"Hehe... that guy is nothing special, huh."

"Exactly, letting him become a sacrifice to the Lizardmen is a fitting end."

"Senior brother, you’re still the clever one."

These cultivators said, looking smug.

"What?"

Gu Sheng was stunned.

Could it be...

Was this a trap they deliberately set up?

Gu Sheng steadied his mindset, betrayed no emotion and listened to what else they might say.

"Senior brother, what do we do next?"

One of the cultivators asked.

"Return to Qingxia Sect and report the situation here to Elder Qingxia."

The leading cultivator said coldly.

"Yes!"

The remaining cultivators said in unison.

Gu Sheng saw that they were about to leave and knew he had to act.

If they left like this, these Lizardmen would still not spare him, and when they returned, they would badmouth him to that Elder Qingxia.

Therefore, they must stay here!

"Wait!"

Suddenly, Gu Sheng’s voice echoed throughout the cave.

"Leaving just like that?"

Gu Sheng said coldly.

These cultivators looked up and saw Gu Sheng above the cave.

They were shocked, one of them asked, "How are you not dead yet?"

"Do you think this is enough to kill me?"

Gu Sheng asked coldly, full of anger.

"You’re impressive, kid, managing to evade the Lizardmen’s attacks."

The leading cultivator stepped forward, speaking with a mocking expression.

"It was you who underestimated me."

Gu Sheng replied with a cold sneer.

"Oh? Underestimate? Then I’ll see how long you can last."

Subsequently, the leading cultivator recited a spell.

The Lizardmen suddenly went berserk, attacking Gu Sheng who was hanging at the top of the cave.

"Crack..."

Amidst a cacophony of noises, the Lizardmen were thrown into chaos.

This was due to the high ceiling of the cave, making it impossible to attack Gu Sheng.

The leading cultivator saw Gu Sheng didn’t dare to come down, so he taunted, "Coward, won’t you come down?"

Gu Sheng knew he was trying to provoke him.

But Gu Sheng didn’t fall for it, he didn’t come down.

The leading cultivator saw this situation and was helpless.

He then told his subordinates, "Let’s go, let him face these hundred Lizardmen alone here until he dies."

After saying this, the others started heading towards the cave entrance.

Seeing this, Gu Sheng quickly realized the danger.

He then leapt down and immediately brandished the Fire Spirit Dagger to stab one of the cultivators.

"Pfft!"

As the dagger struck, blood burst forth!

Instantly, the cave was filled with a strong scent of blood.

On the other side, Gu Sheng leapt back up to his previous position on the cave ceiling.

The Lizardmen smelled the blood and immediately went out of control, rushing toward the dead cultivator’s body.

Perhaps because they hadn’t smelled blood for a long time, these Lizardmen began to slaughter each other.

The previously calm scene suddenly descended into chaos.

Flesh flew, a bloody storm raged, and shrieks followed one after another.

"You! What have you done!"

The leading cultivator looked at Gu Sheng in horror, not realizing that his companion had already been killed by Gu Sheng.

"Senior brother, you killed the third junior brother... those Lizardmen are tearing his body apart!"

One of the cultivators beside him cried out.

"Huh?"

The leading cultivator was suddenly stunned.

Gu Sheng laughed coldly and said, "I just gave them what they wanted."

"You madman! Do you know what you’re doing?"

The leading cultivator roared in anger.

"Of course I know, I’m protecting myself."

Gu Sheng replied with a cold laugh.

The leading cultivator looked at the chaos below and hurried to recite a spell.

But after chanting it over and over, the Lizardmen were out of control.

The smell of blood had overwhelmed them, unleashing their primal animal instincts.

At this point, he also realized he could no longer control these Lizardmen.

"Run! We have to go!"

The leading cultivator shouted loudly.

However, the Lizardmen were completely out of control and began attacking any moving target.

The leading cultivator and his subordinates were surrounded by the Lizardmen, emitting cries of despair.

Gu Sheng looked down coldly, knowing this was what they had brought upon themselves.

He had no sympathy, no compassion, just quietly observed from the cave’s ceiling.

"This is the result you wanted."

Gu Sheng said coldly.

As the last cultivator from the Qingyun Sect’s scream abruptly ceased, the Lizardmen began to turn their gaze on each other.

These once-controlled creatures now harbored only instinctual murderous desires.

Their eyes glinted with bloodthirsty red light, their sharp claws and fangs glinting with icy coldness.

A bloody internal battle unfolded in the cave...

The Lizardmen tore into each other until only one remained.

The last Lizardman was covered in scars, deep wounds exposing bone.

Green blood slowly oozed from its wounds, the surrounding ground saturated with the viscous liquid.

Now it was barely alive, unable to fight any longer.

Gu Sheng slowly descended from the cave ceiling, letting out a heavy sigh.

"Alas... being born of the same root, why destroy each other in such haste!"

Just as Gu Sheng was about to turn and leave this bloody battlefield, his gaze was caught by an Ancient Jade on the ground.

This piece of Ancient Jade lay in a pool of blood, easily overlooked if not examined closely.

Immediately, Gu Sheng squatted down, picking up the Ancient Jade.

At this moment, Gu Sheng found that the jade seemed to be engraved with some kind of pattern.

"Path Script?"

Gu Sheng observed it carefully, then shook his head: "No, that’s not it..."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to identify the pattern on it.

"What is this?"

Gu Sheng mumbled to himself.

But while carefully observing, he suddenly sensed a profound power contained within the Ancient Jade.

This power seemed to have a summoning ability, captivating Gu Sheng somewhat.

Then, Gu Sheng activated the Divine Power within him, gradually infusing his Divine Sense into the Ancient Jade.

As the Divine Power flowed in, the Ancient Jade began to emit a faint glow.

The tiny imprints seemed to come alive, starting to circulate on the jade’s surface.

Gu Sheng’s consciousness was drawn into the jade, finding himself in a strange space.

There was no sky, no earth, only an enormous map hovering in the air.

The map marked many locations, with the Spirit Vein of the Qingxia Sect being the most prominent, a path of spiritual power flowing like a dragon, shining brightly and attractively.
