Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 922: Chapter 485: Greed

He hadn’t had time to observe his surroundings when he heard a deep roar from behind.

Gu Sheng turned his head and saw a group of fierce Demon Boars charging toward him.

Their eyes glowed with a savage light, especially those two tusks, which were particularly chilling.

Clearly, they had taken Gu Sheng as prey.

Gu Sheng’s heart tightened, recognizing this must be a test within the Illusion Realm from the Seeking Origin Heavenly Book.

But just upon entering, he encountered these Demon Beasts, and must first probe their situation.

Immediately, he swiftly mobilized the Mystic Yellow Power within him.

"Sizzle!"

Golden light burst forth from his body.

Simultaneously, Gu Sheng stirred his Divine Power.

In that instant, Gu Sheng darted through the forest like a golden bolt, evading the pursuit of the Demon Beasts.

After several bouts, Gu Sheng had already figured out the details of these Demon Beasts.

Though fierce, their abilities were mediocre.

In other words, they were merely slightly stronger than low-grade Demon Beasts.

They appeared formidable, yet weren’t as strong as imagined.

"Never thought I’d be a pig killer in this lifetime!"

Gu Sheng felt somewhat relieved, deciding not to tangle with these Demon Beasts any longer.

He clasped his hands, summoning his Fire Spirit Dagger in an instant.

"Whoosh!"

With the Fire Spirit Dagger out, the air around seemed to become scorching.

The flames on the dagger danced and flickered with life, driven by will.

Gu Sheng flashed through the Demon Beasts.

"Slash!"

Under a fierce attack, these demon boar-like beasts fell one by one.

As they fell, they turned into wisps of green smoke, dissipating into the air.

"Hah! Is that all?"

Gu Sheng said with some disdain, then put away the Fire Spirit Dagger.

Truth be told, he was beginning to underestimate the Illusion Realm test of the Seeking Origin Heavenly Book.

In his view, this Illusion Realm was just trivial, mere small fry not worth fearing.

Randomly, he stirred his Divine Power, preparing to leave the forest and find the exit of the Illusion Realm.

Just as he turned around, suddenly a woman’s voice came.

"Gu Sheng."

"Hm?"

Gu Sheng’s heart trembled.

This voice was all too familiar, it was Ji Ziyue.

He turned his head and indeed saw Ji Ziyue.

She still wore his favorite purple clothes, standing under a tree not far away.

Her eyes carried a hint of expectation and unease.

"Ziyue? Why are you here?"

Gu Sheng asked, perplexed.

Ji Ziyue looked at Gu Sheng, saying with some panic, "I’ve been secretly tracking you, which brought me to the Illusion Realm of the Heavenly Book."

"Tracking me?"

Gu Sheng was surprised.

Never expected Ji Ziyue was following him all along.

He frowned, asking, "Why are you tracking me?"

Ji Ziyue suddenly started sobbing, "I was expelled by the Ji family, with nowhere to go, you are the only one who treats me best, so I secretly followed you, hoping you would take me in, and we could wander the world freely."

"This..."

Looking at Ji Ziyue in tears, Gu Sheng couldn’t help but feel a bit sympathetic.

But amidst the sympathy, Gu Sheng suddenly realized, is this Ji Ziyue in front of him generated by the Illusion Realm?

With this suspicion, Gu Sheng decided to test a bit.

"Then you can go to the Supreme Mysterious Sect and find Senior Li, no?"

Gu Sheng asked.

Ji Ziyue shook her head, wiping her tears, "I can’t, I went to find Senior Li, he is no longer at Zhuo Peak, I went to other main peaks, they are unwilling to accept me."

"What!"

Gu Sheng was stunned.

"Where did Senior Li go?"

Gu Sheng hurriedly asked.

"I don’t know, no one told me, they all say our Ji family is the scourge of the Southern Domain, treating me as an eyesore."

Ji Ziyue said, tears streaming down.

After this probing, Gu Sheng was almost certain.

This Ji Ziyue matches what he knows closely.

Judging from his intuition, this really was the Ji Ziyue who was following him.

"Alright, you follow me first. Now, we are in the Illusion Realm. The most important thing is to exit the Illusion Realm and obtain the Seeking Origin Heavenly Book."

Gu Sheng nodded and said.

"Mm."

Ji Ziyue finished speaking and walked toward Gu Sheng.

However, just as Gu Sheng was about to touch Ji Ziyue, his Divine Sense suddenly felt a change in the aura around him.

This change was extremely subtle, had he not just trained the No Beginning Scripture, it might have been hard to detect.

Gu Sheng’s heart chilled, suspecting this Ji Ziyue was fake.

He kept his composure, secretly mobilizing the Mystic Yellow Power, preparing for possible danger.

Meanwhile, he asked, "Ji Ziyue, do you remember where we first met?"

Ji Ziyue seemed unaware of Gu Sheng’s suspicion, she replied, "Of course, it was at the entry-level test meeting of the Supreme Mysterious Sect."

Gu Sheng’s heart sank, their first meeting wasn’t at the test meeting.

It was during a chase, where Gu Sheng and Ji Ziyue both fell into the lake of the Bronze Immortal Palace!

This Ji Ziyue was indeed fake!

Gu Sheng thought to himself.

Then Gu Sheng sneered, retreating swiftly.

Simultaneously, the Fire Spirit Dagger struck again, aiming directly at Ji Ziyue’s forehead.

"Who are you, really?"

Gu Sheng asked coldly.

Ji Ziyue suddenly panicked, "Gu Sheng, I am Ji Ziyue, who else?"

"No! You are not her!"

Gu Sheng shook his head.

"I am truly her!"

Ji Ziyue nearly roared.

"We entered the Bronze Immortal Palace together, joined the Supreme Mysterious Sect together, have you forgotten all of this? Huh?"
