Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1128 - 588: A War Sparked by a Medicinal Herb

On the way to Kunming Mountain, Gu Sheng and his companions exhausted most of their energy.

As they approached the foot of Kunming Mountain, he finally stopped in his tracks.

"Kunming Mountain is just ahead, about half a day’s journey. Let’s rest first and head into the mountain once we’ve regained our strength."

Everyone agreed with this idea and promptly stopped to rest.

Lan Yao, ever restless, found a tall boulder, leaped up, and gazed toward Kunming Mountain.

Bai Yu, sitting at his feet, couldn’t help but laugh and ask, "You’ve been looking for a while, have you seen anything?"

"It seems like there are people guarding Kunming Mountain, and quite a number of them at that."

Upon hearing this, the smiles disappeared from everyone’s faces, and they all jumped onto the boulder.

Gu Sheng flicked his fingertip, and a wisp of Divine Power flew out.

Watching him, Lan Yao scratched his head and asked, "Gu Sheng, did I see it right?"

Hearing his question, Gu Sheng didn’t answer but carefully sensed that wisp of aura.

After a long ti, the aura returned, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing this, Lan Yao pressed again, "What’s going on? Are there people guarding it?"

"No one’s guarding it. Those people do not belong to Kunming Mountain."

"What? They’re standing so openly on Kunming Mountain, yet they’re not from there?"

"No, the aura from these people is very strange, sothing I’ve never sensed before."

"A strange aura? Could it be from the Evil Sect?"

Pursing his lips, Gu Sheng didn’t respond.

He couldn’t give a specific answer as his senses weren’t clear.

Seeing everyone getting anxious, Gu Sheng said in a deep voice, "Let’s not worry about them for now. Let’s recover our own strength first; otherwise, if we encounter trouble when getting closer to the mountain tomorrow, we might be defeated."

Upon hearing this, everyone imdiately lifted their spirits and sat down to restore their strength.

As they ditated, Gu Sheng summoned the small tripod, placing it above everyone’s head.

Once he confird there was no aura exposed, Gu Sheng glanced over again.

This ti, he sensed the aura of the people from Kunming Mountain.

Seeing the two groups constantly probing each other, he couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

The aura of the outsiders was clearly strange, yet the people from Kunming Mountain were still probing them. Could it be they’ve also gone astray?

This thought sent a chill through Gu Sheng’s heart.

If Wang Chunshi has truly gone astray, they could be in danger...

But they carried a heavy burden, needing to find High-level Xuan Iron to break the Death Soldier’s soft armor; they must enter this mountain.

As these two thoughts continued to battle, Gu Sheng leapt off the stone and sat cross-legged to ditate.

Since they’re here, why not give it a try?

With this thought gaining the upper hand, Gu Sheng cald down and focused on recovering his strength.

All night long, everyone ditated in cross-legged positions.

When the sunlight hit their bodies the next day, Gu Sheng finally opened his eyes.

Jumping back onto the stone, he found the auras still present, but the people were gone.

After searching around and seeing no one, he frowned once more.

Thinking it over, he decided to investigate personally.

With this in mind, he quickly woke everyone up.

Upon his call, everyone opened their eyes one after another.

Lan Yao couldn’t wait to ask, "Gu Sheng, did sothing happen?"

"No, nothing happened; it’s just daylight now. We should head into the mountain."

"And those people from last night? Are they still around?"

"They’re gone, but the aura remains."

Understanding his aning, Lan Yao led the Elf Clan people to their feet.

"Whether the aura is there or not, we’re not afraid. There are so many of us; why should we be scared of them? Let’s go!"

Gu Sheng nodded and led everyone towards Kunming Mountain.

In just half a day’s journey, they reached the foot of Kunming Mountain.

Looking at the already breached barrier in front of them, everyone had a complicated expression.

"Gu Sheng, do you think it was those people we saw yesterday who broke it, or was it already broken before?"

"I don’t know, but the aura inside is chaotic. Everyone, be careful."

Understanding his aning, the group stood closer together.

As always, Gu Sheng led the way with the others following closely behind.

Seeing their gazes darting around, Gu Sheng reminded Lan Yao, "Keep an eye out for herbs."

With his reminder, Lan Yao realized that the Elf Clan was here to collect herbs!

"Got it."

As the group advanced, Gu Sheng followed the aura.

Along the way, the Elf Clan gathered a lot of herbs, and Hong i also picked quite a few.

Near dusk, the Elf Clan suddenly stopped, their eyes gleaming as they looked at a high point.

"Second Young Master, that’s the grassy field we’ve been searching for!"

Hearing this, Lan Yao’s eyes lit up, and he quickly turned to Gu Sheng.

"Gu Sheng, can we pick them?"

Looking at the high point, Gu Sheng was also troubled.

The chaotic aura was just ahead. If they concealed themselves, they would surely not be discovered, but stepping up for the herbs would undoubtedly expose them. Before encountering Wang Chunshi, he didn’t want to cause trouble. However, since these herbs were what the Elf Clan needed, he couldn’t just sit back.

As Gu Sheng was feeling conflicted, Lan Yao noticed his dilemma and quickly said, "We’re not in a hurry. Now that we know where the herbs are, we can co back for them when the ti is right."

After he spoke, the other mbers of the Elf Clan nodded repeatedly.

Watching them, Gu Sheng pursed his lips, thought it over, and said, "Since we’ve found them, let’s pick them."

"But..."

"No worries, we’ll take each step as it cos. The people from Kunming Mountain are also on that side. If we’re in and out here, they won’t be oblivious."
