Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 923 - 485: Greed (Part 2)

Ji Ziyue shouted angrily.

"Uh..."

Gu Sheng hesitated again.

If this Ji Ziyue is fake, the things she said were all experiences he’s been through himself.

But if she’s real, sothing just feels off...

Gu Sheng began to feel troubled.

"Fine, since you think I’m a fake, then just leave, don’t worry about !"

Ji Ziyue said, turning around and walking in another direction.

Watching Ji Ziyue’s departing figure, Gu Sheng suddenly saw the real Ji Ziyue in her.

It’s known that Ji Ziyue is a famous lady from the Ji family.

Her temperant is beyond words.

Now with such a fuss, Gu Sheng was truly perplexed.

But, in this Illusion Realm filled with danger, if Ji Ziyue just leaves like that, she’ll definitely encounter trouble.

If she’s fake, it’s fine, but if she’s real, how heartbroken would Ji Ziyue be?

Thinking of this, Gu Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Ji Ziyue’s arm.

"Ziyue... hey, I’m just kidding."

Gu Sheng said with a smile.

Ji Ziyue turned her head and glared at Gu Sheng: "Don’t make such jokes with again!"

"Yes, yes! I promise."

Gu Sheng said with a faint smile.

Yet Gu Sheng’s heart was still uneasy, wanting to test further.

Then Gu Sheng asked: "Ziyue, do you still rember the Ji family’s secret technique?"

"Of course I rember, the Great Void Skill, I even taught you."

Ji Ziyue turned her head and said with a smile.

Before Gu Sheng could speak, Ji Ziyue continued: "I know you’re testing , go ahead, ask whatever you want."

Caught by Ji Ziyue, Gu Sheng smiled awkwardly: "No, nothing, I just wanted to ask about the opening mind thod secret of the Great Void Skill."

Ji Ziyue smiled, seemingly seeing through Gu Sheng’s thoughts.

"The mind thod secrets of the Great Void Skill is a non-transmittable secret of the Ji family, but to you, there’s no need to hide it."

Gu Sheng listened attentively as Ji Ziyue slowly began reciting cryptic incantations.

"The void is limitless, the mind turns at will, mind and intent unite, the realm turns with the mind..."

Gu Sheng’s heart stirred, these indeed were the opening secrets of the Great Void Skill.

He had practiced under Ji Ziyue’s guidance, so he was not unfamiliar.

However, he didn’t lower his guard because he knows that in the Illusion Realm, everything might be false.

"Ziyue, you’re right."

Gu Sheng nodded, then shifted the conversation, "But do you know the cultivation of the Great Void Skill requires the coordination of specific handprints and breathing thods, can you demonstrate?"

Ji Ziyue’s expression slightly changed, and she chuckled: "Gu Sheng, you’re really cautious, alright, I’ll show you."

She started forming handprints.

Her fingers moved agilely, her actions smooth and natural.

Gu Sheng observed closely, these handprints were indeed part of the Great Void Skill, but his heart still had doubts.

"Ziyue, although your handprints are skillful, I rember the cultivation of the Great Void Skill also requires a specific breathing rhythm. Can you demonstrate it?"

Gu Sheng continued to probe.

Ji Ziyue looked sowhat displeased but she still complied.

She took a deep breath and then slowly exhaled.

The rhythm matched the requirents of the Great Void Skill.

Seeing this, Gu Sheng’s doubts slightly eased.

"Seems you’re truly Ziyue."

Gu Sheng slightly smiled, seemingly relaxing his guard.

Ji Ziyue saw this, her eyes full of discontent.

She turned, speaking coldly: "Gu Sheng, I’m really impressed with you!"

"Bla , bla ..."

Gu Sheng nodded, saying with a smile.

But suddenly, Gu Sheng’s Divine Sense sensed an unusual fluctuation.

This fluctuation seed to be absorbing his energy.

The feeling was like draining a pond from its bottom.

Instantly, Gu Sheng secretly churned his Divine Power.

No mistake, the feeling indeed existed, and his energy was indeed fading.

Instantly, Gu Sheng’s eyes sharpened, and he took a step back, looking at Ji Ziyue warily.

"What’s wrong? Gu Sheng, are you still doubting ?"

Ji Ziyue’s face showed slight grievance.

Gu Sheng didn’t respond but closed his eyes.

He began circulating his Divine Sense, carefully sensing everything around him.

He discovered that the aura on Ji Ziyue had a subtle difference from the real Ji Ziyue.

This difference was extrely subtle, almost undetectable without close observation.

"You’re not Ziyue!"

Gu Sheng suddenly opened his eyes, saying coldly.

Suddenly, Gu Sheng sneered, his Fire Spirit Dagger igniting flas again, "Show your hand!"

Seeing the Fire Spirit Dagger, Ji Ziyue’s expression changed, sneering: "Didn’t expect you to be so alert, yes, I’m not the real Ji Ziyue, I’m the greed spirit of this Illusion Realm, you didn’t have much greed, you weren’t deceived."

"Greed spirit?"

Gu Sheng was stunned, he’d never heard of this na.

"Indeed, I feed on human greed and absorb their Divine Power through it, but I just absorbed a little bit and you found out."

The Investigating Spirit laughed and said.

Then the fake Ji Ziyue waved her hand, and the greed spirit imdiately revealed its true form.

He was dressed in a black outfit, with no face or hair, just a mass of black.

The appearance looked as if he just erged from a coal mine.

"Since it’s an Illusion Spirit, don’t bla for being rciless."

Gu Sheng coldly shouted, charging forward.

The Illusion Spirit showed a chilling smile.

In an instant, her body began to blur, eventually transforming into a cloud of black mist, rushing toward Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng remained calm, swinging the Fire Spirit Dagger, slicing towards the black mist.

"Chhh, chhh, chhh!"

As the flas t the black mist, they produced a "chhh" sound.

The black mist was burned by the flas, letting out a piercing scream.

Gu Sheng continuously swung his dagger, slowly dispelling the black mist.

"Puff!"

Suddenly, Gu Sheng suddenly heard the sound of the dagger piercing a body.

Gu Sheng widened his eyes and looked ahead, only to see Ji Ziyue lying on the ground, covered in blood.

"Ziyue? No! This..."

Gu Sheng froze on the spot.

"Gu... Gu Sheng... you... you actually..."

Ji Ziyue had a look of agony.

Is this real?

Or fake?

Greed spirit?

Gu Sheng placed a question mark in his mind.

"That was a greed spirit transforming into my figure, now I am the real Ji Ziyue, I’m real."

Ji Ziyue lay on the ground, clutching her wound.

"The real Ji Ziyue?"

Gu Sheng’s heart was pricked again.

"I..."

The fire on Gu Sheng’s Fire Spirit Dagger began to extinguish, leaving his heart more tornted.

"Puh!"

Ji Ziyue spat out a mouthful of blood.

The sll of blood quickly spread.

Gu Sheng tentatively moved forward, "You... are you the greed spirit or Ziyue?"

"You should leave, the greed spirit is still nearby, don’t let him take advantage of you! Gu Sheng, go!"

Ji Ziyue shouted loudly.

But the more she urged him, the less willing Gu Sheng was to leave.

"Leave! I’ll take you with !"

Gu Sheng said, stepping forward to help Ji Ziyue up.

"Hoo..."

Suddenly, Ji Ziyue blew a dark mist toward Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng imdiately retreated, saying with a faint smile: "Already got fooled once, do you want to fall for it again?"

"Haha... didn’t expect you to suppress your inner emotions, seems I can’t subdue you."

With that, the greed spirit transford into a stream of black smoke disappearing into the air.

Emotions?

Upon hearing these two words, Gu Sheng froze.

"Do I have feelings for Ji Ziyue?"

Gu Sheng silently pondered in his heart.

But honestly, he indeed held complex feelings for Ji Ziyue.

Yet, they were ant to be on different paths, shouldn’t have such thoughts.

He began to reflect, what is this Illusion Realm testing him for?

Greed?

Strength?

Or ntal aspects?

Gu Sheng thought and thought, yet found himself completely clueless.
