Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1187 - 617: Still Alive (2)

The anger in Gu Sheng’s heart grew even fiercer, but he had no ti to care about the person outside the door; the intense pain in his body nearly deprived him of his ability to think.

His will began to blur, and his body trembled uncontrollably. Ti and again, he struggled to stand up, only to fall heavily to the ground each ti.​

"I cannot die... I have survived so many desperate situations on the Holy Road; how can I die here!" Gu Sheng’s heart was filled with unwillingness. He endured the excruciating pain and desperately thought of ways to resolve his predicant.​

Gu Sheng sensed a faint light deep within his body. It was the glow of the Taiji Hunyuan Heavenly Book. He also sensed a fluctuation in the aura of the mysterious woman dormant within the Heavenly Book.

An idea flashed in Gu Sheng’s mind; he rembered having refined the energy of a barren tree using a ntal thod. Perhaps this ntal thod could also refine this poison!​

At this life-and-death juncture, Gu Sheng had no other choice. He gritted his teeth and, enduring the pain that almost drowned him, began to operate the Nine Dragon Heaven and Earth Technique.

As he recited the incantation, a powerful devouring force surged from within him, rushing towards the poison.​

Gu Sheng, enduring the pain in his body, focused inwardly on the situation inside his body. He watched closely as the devouring force slowly approached the poison. It all ca down to this mont; his fate, and his sister’s safety, hinged upon this bet.

Gu Sheng suddenly felt a pain on his lips as a salty and pungent taste spread in his mouth. The excruciating pain pierced deep into his consciousness, finally granting him a mont of clarity.

His eyes, filled with bloodshot lines, stared directly at the rampant poison inside him. Teeth clenched, he made a determined, do-or-die decision in his heart—to use the Nine Dragon Heaven and Earth Technique to devour this terrifying poison that targeted Body Refiners specifically.​

This poison was unimaginably bizarre, and Gu Sheng lanted in his heart. His once-proud Sacred Body had beco a clear disadvantage at this mont. The stronger his physical body, the more potent the poison’s effect beca.

His body was already weak beyond belief, yet a montum capable of shaking heaven and earth roared explosively from within him. The astounding devouring force launched a ferocious assault on the peculiar poison inside him.​

Gu Sheng felt as if every cell in his body was howling and struggling.

If he failed this ti, the dreadful poison would swiftly invade his heart. By then, even if he possessed the Sacred Body, it would be too late to save him. Inside him was a chaotic and tragic battle of life and death, silently taking place.​

Fortunately, the devouring power of the Nine Dragon Heaven and Earth Technique naturally restrained this evil poison. In front of this power, the poison trembled uncontrollably.

Gu Sheng forced open his heavy eyelids, excitedly watching the clash between the two, his heart full of hope. Yet his consciousness grew increasingly fuzzy, and his vision dimd as he passed out.​

It was uncertain how much ti had passed as Gu Sheng’s consciousness seed to drift through a fog of chaos,

hearing faintly the sound of rain pattering down. The cool raindrops lightly beat against his body, bringing a long-missed sense of coolness.

A familiar voice tinged with a sob entered his ears: "Brother, wake up, don’t scare ..." It was his sister Gu Yu calling him!​

Struggling, Gu Sheng opened his heavy eyelids, and the first thing he saw was his sister’s face. Gu Yu clung to him tightly, crying uncontrollably.

Gu Sheng raised a hand, gently touching his sister’s face, feeling the real, tangible sensation, his heart filled with post-crisis relief. He was still alive.​

Despite his body’s weakness, Gu Sheng looked inwardly at his condition, seeing that his internal organs had been devastated by the poison, with evident damage. Seeing his sister safe and sound finally allowed him to breathe a sigh of relief.

He opened his mouth slightly, asking hoarsely, "Yu’er, do you rember how we got poisoned?"​

Gu Yu, sobbing, said, "Brother, I felt terribly uncomfortable while cultivating, then a sharp pain hit, and I passed out. When I woke up, I saw you lying here, unconscious."​

Gu Sheng’s heart sank; he knew the poison was aid at him. The poisoner must have been extrely cautious, leaving no evidence.

Looking at his sister, he softly said, "Yu’er, go outside and protect ; I need to cultivate and recover."​

Gu Yu quickly wiped her tears, nodded, and turned to leave the room.

Gu Sheng, enduring the discomfort, focused on operating his ntal thod. As the ntal thod circulated, a warm current flowed through him, visibly speeding his recovery.​

While Gu Sheng was imrsed in cultivation, he sensed an unwelco presence approaching Tianshan Residence.

Opening his eyes and looking out the window, he saw the two n who had left earlier walking toward him, chatting and laughing.​

One of the n, sharp-eyed, spotted Gu Yu standing in the courtyard and said to his companion, "Hey, look over there, she’s quite a beauty; let’s go take a look."​

Smiling, the other man nodded, and they quickened their pace.

With their considerable cultivation level, they believed no one in Tianshan Residence could match them. Although they had the chance to kill Gu Sheng earlier, they refrained, fearing exposure.

Du Zhixin and Shou Xiangwen approached Tianshan Residence with lewd smiles, their footsteps frivolously advancing, their laughter piercingly jarring in the silent night.​

Outside the boudoir, Gu Yu appeared anxious, pacing back and forth.

Gu Sheng’s absence of breath worried her, various grim thoughts swirling in her mind.

She murmured to herself, "Brother, you mustn’t have anything happen to you."​

Du Zhixin and Shou Xiangwen appeared within Gu Yu’s sight.

Du Zhixin teasingly said, "Little beauty, is that Gu Sheng already dead?"

Gu Yu looked at them warily, loudly asking, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"

Shou Xiangwen laughed heartily, his laughter filled with mockery: "Little girl, stop playing dumb. Hand over Gu Sheng quickly."​

Their bodies released powerful auras, Spiritual Energy swirling around them, forming visible eddies of air.

Gu Yu felt an invisible pressure bearing down on her, making it almost hard to breathe, and a wave of despair rose within her.

She forced herself to stay calm, loudly stating, "Don’t act rashly, our elders won’t spare you!"

Du Zhixin snorted disdainfully, "Elders? We are also with the elders; what do we have to fear!"

Shou Xiangwen laughed even more arrogantly: "We’ve already used an Isolation Array to seal your master’s room; today, there’s no calling for help anywhere!"​

Gu Yu was cornered, with nowhere left to retreat.

Shou Xiangwen reached out, grabbing Gu Yu’s neck, viciously asking, "Quick, tell where Gu Sheng’s body is?"

Gu Yu struggled, her voice trembling, "Brother... he’s not dead..."

Shou Xiangwen, hearing this, wore a disbelieving expression, raising a hand to strike.

Du Zhixin stopped him, "Don’t rush, such a beauty—it’s a pity to damage her."​

Du Zhixin stared at Gu Yu’s beauty, his mind filled with vile intent.

Shou Xiangwen anwhile turned toward the boudoir, muttering, "There must be a secret inside, perhaps Gu Sheng’s body, or so treasure." Speaking, he prepared to push open the door and check inside.​

Just as Du Zhixin’s hand was about to touch the door, Gu Yu’s screams erupted behind him. Turning back, he saw Shou Xiangwen already tearing at Gu Yu’s clothes.

Du Zhixin shook his head helplessly, thinking how impatient Shou Xiangwen was, and turned to step into the room. ​

The room was filled with a faint fragrance. Du Zhixin’s gaze swept across, finding it empty. Yet he carefully sensed the lingering presence of a Cultivator in the air.

He pondered, "Could Gu Sheng still be alive?" By then, it was too late.​

Gu Sheng had appeared outside the door without notice, dragging the barely conscious Shou Xiangwen. Shou Xiangwen’s face was pale, his aura faint, clearly severely injured.
