Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1464

Chapter 1464: Chapter 755: Utterly Satisfying

Gu Sheng noticed that her right leg appeared slightly stiff when she walked, obviously an old injury that hadn’t healed.

About half a quarter of an hour later, the woman left and returned.

"The Prince allowed you to enter the mansion."

She paused and added coldly.

"Don’t play any tricks."

Just as Gu Sheng was about to step forward, the woman suddenly exploded into action! The Silver Spear, like a Flood Dragon emerging from the sea, traced a dazzling arc in the air.

Gu Sheng felt a lightness at his brow, the mental lock that had plagued him for so long was abruptly severed by this spear!

"General Xiao’s ’Soul-breaking Spear’ truly lives up to its reputation."

Gu Sheng sincerely praised.

The woman... now he knew her surname was Xiao... snorted coldly.

"Follow."

She turned and led the way, her back as straight as a pine.

The sun was high in the sky, the burning wind raging.

Gu Sheng stood in front of the unassuming small courtyard gate, with a token in his palm, fiery red like fire, and the words "Heaven-Burning" seemed to have flames flowing on them.

He softly knocked on the mottled wooden door.

"Crunch..."

The door opened a crack, revealing a pair of cautious beautiful eyes.

Nangong Yingying sized up the unfamiliar young man, her gaze lingering momentarily on the token in his hand, her pupils slightly constricting.

"Heaven-Burning Sacred Order?"

Her voice was as cold as frost.

"Who are you?"

Gu Sheng smiled slightly.

"I am Gu Sheng, here to visit Senior Southern Prince."

Nangong Yingying frowned slightly, just about to speak, when an old yet hearty voice came from within the courtyard.

"Let him in."

The small courtyard, unexpectedly simple, had a few ancient plum trees, a stone table, and a white-haired elder sitting by the table brewing tea.

The elder looked up at Gu Sheng, his gaze like lightning, as if it could penetrate one’s heart.

"Sit."

The elder pointed to the stone bench opposite.

Gu Sheng bowed and sat down calmly.

The elder’s gaze gradually softened, but still carried a hint of inquiry.

"Young friend holding the Heaven-Burning Sacred Order, could it be that you are a Holy Land Disciple?"

The elder poured a cup of tea slowly, pushing it in front of Gu Sheng.

The fragrance of the tea lingered, but Gu Sheng didn’t answer immediately.

He lifted the cup, took a small sip, savoring the bitterness and sweetness, then set the cup down and gazed directly at the elder.

"Senior sees clearly, this junior is not from the Holy Land."

"Oh?"

The elder raised his eyebrows slightly, pausing with the teapot in his hand.

"Then why do you..."

"Falsely claim to be a Holy Land Disciple, solely to use the Heaven-Burning Sacred Order as a stepping stone to meet the senior."

Gu Sheng stated frankly.

"To be honest, this junior is being targeted by people from the Sun King."

Nangong Yingying’s face changed drastically, her jade hand ready on her sword hilt.

Yet Nangong Tiance raised a hand to stop his granddaughter’s action, gazing at Gu Sheng for a long while, then sighed.

"I have been in seclusion for thirty years but have never been able to break through that barrier... you are right, perhaps I indeed took the wrong path."

Gu Sheng stood up from the stone bench, a strand of Sword Qi gathered at his fingertips, gracefully writing four big words on the ground...

"No destruction, no creation"!

The characters etched three inches deep into the stone, the Sword Qi awe-inspiring.

Nangong Yingying was about to step forward but was halted by a sound transmission from Nangong Tiance.

"Don’t move!"

Gu Sheng withdrew his fingers and explained.

"The transformation of the King Realm is not about mere refining and accumulation; it requires the courage to abandon everything and rise again. Senior has been stuck at the peak of the Human King Realm for years, precisely because you have been too fixated on ’gain,’ and forgotten the essence of ’renunciation.’"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Tiance’s expression shifted slightly, eyes flickering with gleams of understanding.

He looked down at the four characters on the ground, as if seeing some profound truth.

"No destruction... no creation..."

The elder murmured to himself, the aura around him becoming unstable.

Seeing this, Gu Sheng promptly pulled Nangong Yingying back.

"The senior is about to break through, we need to step back a bit."

Nangong Yingying still wanted to struggle, but heard her grandfather’s sound transmission.

"Listen to him, take him out of the courtyard."

As the two had just retreated several hundred feet from the courtyard, a vast and ocean-like wave of True Qi burst forth from behind.

The entire Sun City’s ground began to tremble, dust falling from the houses, countless people staring in terror towards the direction of the Southern Prince Mansion.
