Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1060 - 554: Gu Sheng’s Stubbornness

At the foot of the mountain, Hong i repeatedly tried to sense the aura of Wushuang Taoist.

The longer it took, the tighter her eyebrows furrowed.

Seeing her like this, everyone couldn’t help but beco nervous.

After a long while, as Hong i withdrew her Divine Power, Bai Yu impatiently asked, "Well? Did you sense Wushuang Taoist’s aura?"

Hearing this, Hong i sighed.

"No."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked disappointed.

They had traveled a long way to get here, only to be deceived by the two ghosts of black and white.

As everyone started complaining, Gu Sheng looked around.

"If there’s nothing here, let’s try sowhere else. This mountain is big; we must take a look around."

Hong i felt a bit disappointed, yet she also thought he was right.

"Alright, let’s keep walking."

Everyone moved around the foot of the mountain while Hong i tried to sense the aura as they walked.

From dayti to night, her expression grew increasingly grave.

Knowing she had found nothing, Gu Sheng also released his Divine Power.

He examined the surrounding aura bit by bit, not even overlooking the mountain beasts.

After walking for another couple of hours, Gu Sheng suddenly stopped in his tracks.

Following behind him, Hong i hadn’t anticipated his sudden stop and accidentally bumped into his back.

"Gu Sheng, why did you stop so abruptly?"

Hearing her complaint, Gu Sheng turned his head.

"Feel the aura here and see if there’s any trace of Wushuang Taoist."

"I already felt it before you stopped; there’s nothing here."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

"If it’s not here, maybe it’s inside."

Hong i paused at his words.

"Inside? Inside is a mountain; how could it be possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. There’s a trace of the two ghosts of black and white here. They have been here before for a reason."

Upon Gu Sheng’s words, everyone gathered excitedly.

"Brother Sheng, they really ca here?"

"Yes, the aura is faint, likely dispersed on purpose, but it undeniably existed. Even though it’s only a slight aura, I truly sensed it. There’s definitely sothing wrong with this mountain."

Hearing this, Bai Yu reached out to touch the giant stone behind him.

He touched around but found nothing peculiar.

A bit confused, he turned to look at Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, this giant stone is solid; are you sure there’s sothing wrong behind it?"

Focusing intently on the stone, Gu Sheng nodded seriously.

"The aura is coming from behind this; there has to be sothing wrong here."

Seeing his seriousness, everyone began to take it seriously as well.

They tried everything to move the stone, but despite their efforts, it only budged slightly.

While everyone panted for breath, Gu Sheng frowned.

"Using brute force must be the wrong approach; there must be a chanism on this stone."

Upon hearing this, Lan Yao, panting, waved his hand.

"No, no, I’ve checked it all over and almost touched the whole stone; it’s perfectly smooth, absolutely no chanism."

After Lan Yao finished speaking, Gu Sheng didn’t say much more, but his eyes still carried a scrutinizing look.

It was clear he trusted his intuition more.

Taking a step forward, Gu Sheng placed his hand on the stone, feeling every detail and crevice. As Lan Yao had said, there really was nothing peculiar about the stone.

"Gu Sheng, stop wasting your energy; I’ve really touched it all."

Lan Yao spoke again, and Gu Sheng retracted his hand accordingly.

"I know, but there must be a chanism on this stone; we just haven’t discovered it yet."

Seeing his stubbornness, Hong i furrowed her brow.

"Gu Sheng, you’ve felt it yourself; why don’t you believe it?"

"Because I can sense the aura inside, I won’t believe otherwise."

Seeing his persistent deanor, Hong i sighed helplessly.

"Gu Sheng, I know most of your choices are right, but you should listen to others, too. They’re your companions; they wouldn’t deceive you, would they?"

"They’re telling the truth, and so am I, but these words are based on the current situation. The truth may not be like this."

Relenting not an inch, Gu Sheng spoke firmly while Hong i could only sigh helplessly.

At this ti, Lan Yao stepped forward and said, "Gu Sheng, do you really think there’s sothing fishy here?"

"Yes."

After his affirmative answer, Lan Yao also nodded seriously.

"Since you say that, then there must be sothing wrong with this stone. Let’s try again. With it right before our eyes, I refuse to believe we can’t uncover the truth!"

Seeing he wanted to take action again, Gu Sheng stopped him.

"Don’t rush; take a break first. We’ve been at it for half the night; we should rest."

"But..."

"The stone is right here; it won’t run away. Let’s rest and think of a solution."

After speaking, Gu Sheng sat down against the edge of the stone.

Seeing him stop, the others finally took a break.

They continued discussing the matter endlessly, which sowhat surprised Hong i.

She initially thought that since these people had personally felt the stone, they would argue against Gu Sheng’s stubbornness. But unexpectedly, they trusted his conviction unconditionally.

She acknowledged Gu Sheng’s prowess, but didn’t their trust seem a little exaggerated?

With a skeptical attitude, Hong i joined them.

After discussing for a long ti, well into dawn, they still hadn’t reached a conclusion.

Staring at the sliver of dawn on the horizon, Bai Yu sighed softly.

"Alright, everyone, don’t worry. There’s strength in numbers; we’ll figure it out eventually. Let’s rest first, and then continue working."

After he spoke, Gu Sheng leaned to the side.

He intended to take a short nap, but as soon as he moved, his arm accidentally nudged a small stone.
