Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 994 - 521: Sect Leader of the Heisha Sect

Carrying the intentions of the people from Stone Village, Gu Sheng and his team set off for South Mountain.

They received the information late, and in order not to miss the Spiritual Pearl, they could only travel day and night.

After rushing continuously for several days, they finally saw people from other sects.

On the winding path, several sects were walking far ahead.

It seed they sensed their presence; the footsteps of the team ahead began to slow down, and occasionally so Divine Power probed towards them.

These Divine Powers were probing, friendly, and also threatening.

Gu Sheng ignored all of them, dispersing all the Divine Powers one by one.

After seeing yet another wisp of Divine Power dispersed, Huang Shan stepped forward and said, "Brother Sheng, without a banner, might they think we’re from so crooked sect, which is why they keep probing?"

"Their probing has nothing to do with which sect we’re from. They just want to know our strength."

"You an... they want to strike halfway?"

Glancing around, Gu Sheng said softly, "There are many vengeful spirits on this path; they must have already made a move."

Hearing this, everyone’s hearts trembled with shock.

"Why would there be conflict here when the Spiritual Pearl is beneath it?"

"In a competition, they can only be overt, not covert. But on the road, it’s different. As long as they sense danger, they can use various ans to act. By eliminating their opponents on the road, wouldn’t the competition be much easier?"

Saying this, Gu Sheng picked a wild herb and gently suspended it in his palm.

As soon as Divine Power probed it, the wild herb imdiately turned black!

Seeing this scene, everyone’s hearts tightened fiercely.

"Isn’t this dicinal herb? How is it poisoned?"

"Naturally, it’s the people ahead who poisoned it. The news of the Spiritual Pearl ca out in a rush, and all the sects didn’t have much ti to prepare. With dicinal herbs being essential for this journey, without adequate preparation, wild herbs on the roadside beco the first choice. They poison these herbs, so if any sect uses them carelessly, the poisoners can eliminate an opponent without lifting a finger."

Hearing this, Shi Lou furiously said, "They all claim to be from a renowned sect but do all these crooked deeds everywhere. How detestable!"

Looking at him, Huang Shan said helplessly, "I fear only Stone Village is without disputes. Looking at other parts of Jianghu, where isn’t the human heart full of deceit? In fact, this thod doesn’t even count as a thod for them. You haven’t even experienced the truly vicious ones yet."

After he finished speaking, Gu Sheng nodded in agreent.

"In the Jianghu, one must always assu the worst intentions in others, or else you will be the one getting hurt."

Upon hearing the two’s words, Shi Lou and Er Gou could only nod helplessly.

"Don’t mind the probing from the front, but also don’t lower your guard. On this journey, apart from what we bring ourselves, try not to co in contact with others’ belongings."

After Gu Sheng finished speaking, everyone nodded repeatedly.

When the moon was full, the team ahead began to rest.

Gu Sheng glanced at his team, seeing their spirits were decent, and prepared to continue traveling.

After all, on this narrow path, they were already behind. If they didn’t pick up the pace, they might not make it to the competition.

Everyone had the sa thought, so they agreed imdiately and decided to travel through the night.

Passing by two teams, Gu Sheng and his team could feel the ill intentions from the people within those teams. They used underhanded thods in secret, but Gu Sheng broke them one by one.

After moving forward for a while, they saw the banner of a sect from afar.

Even before they got close, Gu Sheng could feel the strength of the other party.

"This should be a large sect, with more people and much stronger than the previous two sects. Soone is keeping watch; we should stick to the side as we pass to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Everyone understood his aning and followed closely in single file.

Gu Sheng took the lead, guiding the team onward.

As they passed the surrounding area of this sect, a few snake-like gazes were fixed on him.

Gu Sheng paid no heed and kept leading the team forward.

Unexpectedly, they wanted to pass without incident, but the other party had no such intention.

As they were about to pass by this sect, soone suddenly appeared and blocked their path.

"Which sect are you from? Who allowed you to travel at night?"

Hearing this, Gu Sheng frowned.

"Our legs are our own, can’t we travel if we want?"

"You can travel, but you must stay behind us. We stepped on this road first, and no one is allowed to overtake us for any reason!"

At this, a few people sized them up, then showed a disdainful look.

"No banner, are you from so crooked sect?"

"Just because we don’t have a banner, we’re a crooked sect? We’re just too lazy to carry a banner!"

After Huang Shan spoke, a few people burst into laughter.

"Too lazy for a banner? You can say anything, huh? If you’re not from a crooked sect, even the smallest sects carry a banner. You’re so few, without a banner; what else could you be?"

After speaking, his gaze swept over their faces again.

"So few, so weak; you must be so loose practitioners from Jianghu, forming a crooked sect? How dare you try to overtake us? Do you want to die? Return to your place, or be careful you won’t make it to South Mountain."

A few people waved them away impatiently, not even bothering to take another look.

Seeing their snobbish deanor, Gu Sheng sneered repeatedly.

The road is right here; does he think he can stop us from walking it? Dream on!

After signaling to his team, Gu Sheng led them onward again.
