Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1227 - 637: Who Are You, Really? (Part 2)

The Tianlan Saint Mother gritted her teeth.

"Are we really going to let the traitor roam free?"

"Of course not."

The Tianlan Saint Master’s eyes flashed with a cold light.

"Once the turmoil settles, I will make them pay. But now... we must first find Gu Sheng."

ntioning Gu Sheng, the Tianlan Saint Mother’s expression softened slightly.

"That child now..."

"I have already sent the Great Elder to protect him secretly, but..."

The Tianlan Saint Master frowned deeply.

"I just received a ssage that even the Great Elder has lost Gu Sheng’s trail."

A stream of light burst through the air, transforming into a Jade Scroll that landed in the Tianlan Saint Master’s hand.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense, his face changed drastically.

"This is bad!"

"What happened?"

The Tianlan Saint Mother asked urgently.

The Tianlan Saint Master spoke in a deep voice.

"The Supre Immortal Sect has issued a Killing Order, with a bounty on Gu Sheng’s life! The rewards include Upper Realm Magical Treasures, Immortal King-level Techniques, Nine-Revolution Golden Pill..."

"What?!"

The Tianlan Saint Mother exclaid in shock.

"Such a grand gesture..."

The news quickly spread throughout the Xinghong Spirit Domain.

The Six Great Holy Lands sprang into action, even so old monsters who rarely showed themselves were shaken.

"Did you hear? The Supre Immortal Sect’s bounty..."

"Gu Sheng’s head is more valuable than Holy dicine now!"

"Hehe, the Tianlan Sacred Land can’t protect him this ti..."

Similar conversations played out across the Cultivation World.

Countless cultivators began frantically searching for Gu Sheng’s whereabouts.

The Tianlan Saint Master stood at the highest point of the Holy Land, gazing into the distance.

In recent days, they had searched thousands of miles in the direction Gu Sheng left, yet not a single trace was found.

"Saint Master."

An elder hurriedly approached.

"We just received news that the Xuanming Holy Land has sent out three Heavenly Palace Realm elders to hunt Gu Sheng!"

"The Red Fla Holy Land has also mobilized..."

"The Qinghong Holy Land even activated their sect-guarding Magical Treasure, the ’Heaven-Peeping Mirror’..."

"And several Loose Cultivators have ford an alliance..."

Bad news followed one after another, making the Tianlan Saint Master’s expression increasingly somber.

He took out a Communication Jade Talisman, trying again to contact the Great Elder, but again it was like a stone sinking into the sea.

"Gu Sheng... where on earth are you?"

.........

"This is impossible!"

The Great Elder’s face was livid, the compass in his hand spinning wildly.

"Gu Sheng’s aura completely disappears here."

The Tianlan Saint Master stood among towering ancient trees.

This forest seed ordinary, yet gave him an inexplicable sense of eeriness.

It was here that Gu Sheng vanished into thin air, even the Great Elder who was secretly protecting him lost track.

"Either he stumbled into so kind of Ancient Array..."

The Tianlan Saint Master reached out, touching the lingering Spiritual Power fluctuations in the air.

"Or he was taken by so Great Power."

The Great Elder was deeply worried.

"Saint Master, now that the Six Great Holy Lands are all pursuing Gu Sheng, if he is found—"

"You stay here and continue the search,"

the Tianlan Saint Master interrupted.

"I must return to the Holy Land to hold the fort. The Xinghong Spirit Domain’s situation is turbulent, and the Supre Immortal Sect’s Killing Order has stirred various forces into action."

The Great Elder nodded solemnly.

"I will do my utmost."

The Tianlan Saint Master glanced at the eerie forest, then transford into a stream of light and vanished into the horizon.

Amid the gentle sound of flowing water, Gu Sheng slowly opened his eyes.

He found himself sitting cross-legged on a simple wooden boat, drifting with the current in a deep pool beneath the Qing Shan waterfall.

"Where is this place?"

"I was clearly in the forest..."

At this mont, the scenery before him twisted and changed.

Towering peaks rose around him, encircling him completely.

Atop each peak stood an ancient stone pavilion, each with a figure inside.

On the first peak, an old man with a face full of Evil Qi was playing with a blood-colored Jade Pendant with his bony fingers.

The second peak housed a swordsman in green robes, sitting with his Longsword in his arms, eyes closed in ditation.

The third peak floated a mass of ghostly blue soul fire, flickering.

On the fourth peak sat a one-ard hulking figure, his muscular form like a dragon.

The last peak was occupied by a dead infant wrapped in swaddling clothes, its skin blue-purple, devoid of life.

"Elders..."

Gu Sheng attempted to call out, but received no response.

The sun rose and set, an unknown amount of ti passed.

The old man with Evil Qi suddenly stood up, let out a strange laugh, and leaped off the cliff, disappearing.

The swordsman in green robes followed suit, turning into a sword light that pierced through the sky.

The ghostly blue soul fire flickered a few tis, then drifted away.

"Prove the Dao with strength."

The one-ard man left behind this saying, smashed a mountain peak with a punch, and vanished into thin air.

Only the dead infant remained.

It suddenly opened its pupil-less eyes, letting out a chilling wail.

Terrifying visions flashed through Gu Sheng’s mind.

The dead infant was torn and tortured by countless monsters, purple lightning descended from the sky, and a surge of resentnt rose to the heavens!

"Ah!"

Gu Sheng woke up with a start, finding himself still on the wooden boat, the five peaks and the mysterious figure had all vanished.

Cold sweat dripped down his forehead, those scenes were too real.

Especially the dead infant’s resentnt, which seed to brand itself directly into the depths of his divine soul.

"What on earth is this..."

Gu Sheng shook his head, stepping onto the boat to soar into the sky.

"Better get to shore first."

Just as Gu Sheng was about to land, a rustling sound suddenly ca from the bushes by the shore.

"Who’s there?"

Gu Sheng’s eyes grew sharp, and he struck out with a punch.

"Ouch!"

"Which bastard just ambushed Buddha!"

"Buddha is rciful! Who’s the bastard!?"

A roar echoed through the dense forest, startling a flock of birds into flight.

Ling Xiao held up his pants with one hand, while rubbing the fresh bump on his shiny bald head with the other.

He had been squatting in the bushes, taking care of life’s pressing matters.

Who knew that justice from the heavens would suddenly descend, and a heavy punch solidly land on his gleaming forehead.

"S-sorry..."

Gu Sheng poked his head out from behind a tree, face full of embarrassnt.

"I thought it was so fierce beast..."

Ling Xiao swiftly turned his head.

When he saw Gu Sheng’s face, his anger turned into wild joy.

"It’s you!"

Ling Xiao dashed out from the bushes in one quick step, forgetting to tie his pants, nearly tripping over himself.

He rushed in front of Gu Sheng, his eyes shining as he sized him up, such eager eyes made Gu Sheng feel uneasy all over.

"Master..."

Gu Sheng took half a step back, cautiously assuming a defensive stance.

That punch earlier had been full force, enough to suppress any cultivator below the Earth Palace Realm.

Yet this monk only ended up with a bump, not even bleeding.

The strength of his physical body was evident.

But Ling Xiao didn’t care, grabbing Gu Sheng’s wrist.

"No nonsense, co with !"

Gu Sheng’s expression shifted, attempting to exert force in secret to break free, but found the other’s hand completely unmoved.

He was, after all, at mid-Earth Palace Realm cultivation, yet before this monk, he was as powerless as a child?

"Just who are you? And where is this?"

Gu Sheng inquired in a deep voice, simultaneously observing the surrounding environnt secretly.

Towering ancient trees blotted out the sky, the air filled with unfamiliar spiritual energy fluctuations, clearly not any region within the cultivation world he knew.

Ling Xiao trekked rapidly, not looking back as he answered.

"This humble monk’s Dharma na is Ling Xiao, as for where this is..."

He suddenly stopped, his expression twisted.

"Hold on, let deal with nature’s call first..."

Gu Sheng watched dumbfounded as the monk dashed back into the roadside bushes, soon followed by earth-shattering noises.

After a mont, Ling Xiao erged refreshed, patting his belly.

"Finally relieved, I almost died eating wild fruits from this ghostly place."

Gu Sheng’s mouth twitched, this monk’s behavior bore not a trace of a monk’s deanor.

But given the current situation, he had no choice but to endure and ask.

"Where are you taking ?"

"Take you ho!"

Ling Xiao grinned.

"Didn’t you want to leave this cursed place?"

Gu Sheng was taken aback.

Indeed, while exploring an ancient ruin, he was suddenly transported to this strange world, stranded for three days now.

How did this monk know?

Before he could think further, Ling Xiao had already dragged him out of the woods, revealing a vast chasm before them.

A deep abyss stretched out ahead, seemingly endless.

The pitch-black cliff bottom seed to lead directly to the Nine Nether, faint horrifying screams could be heard.

Gu Sheng instinctively took two steps back.

"Why did you bring here?"

"Don’t be afraid, jump in and you’ll return ho."

Ling Xiao’s expression suddenly grew serious.

"But you’ll need to cooperate a bit. Force out a drop of blood tinged with the aura of the Immortal Seed for ."

Gu Sheng’s pupils shrank.

The Immortal Seed was his greatest secret, not even known to his sect elders, how did this monk know?

"Who exactly are you?"

Gu Sheng’s voice turned cold, his true yuan rapidly circulating within.

But Ling Xiao paid no mind, waving his hand nonchalantly.
