Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 578

Chapter 578: Chapter 313 Blood Moon Gang Leader

"Li Gang Leader, you’re mistaken." Kou Hai argued, "We were just lucky."

"Lucky? Hmph! I think you’re deliberately causing trouble here!" Li Xueyue’s tone grew colder.

Gu Sheng and the others sensed the murderous intent emanating from Li Xueyue and realized that today’s affair would not end peacefully. They exchanged glances and decided to join forces against Li Xueyue.

Gu Sheng, along with Xing Lie, Wu Tianxiong, Ying Tianxing, Kou Hai, and the big black dog, was gambling on stones at Earth Origin Square when they encountered the Jade Maiden Gang Leader, Li Xueyue.

To avoid provoking the likes of Xing Lie and other bandit offspring, Li Xueyue decided to challenge Gu Sheng alone.

Li Xueyue stared at Gu Sheng coldly, "Since you want to compete with me, let’s have a fair duel. However, I don’t want to bully you. Let’s have a literary contest before the martial fight, what do you say?"

Gu Sheng’s eyes flashed with determination, "Alright, as you wish. How shall we compete in the literary duel?"

"For the literary duel, we’ll compete in stone gambling." Li Xueyue said lightly, "Each person will select three raw stones, and the one with the highest total value after cutting them open wins."

Gu Sheng smiled slightly, "That’s just what I wanted, please go ahead."

In the stone gambling yard, the spectators gathered, buzzing with excitement. Li Xueyue was the first to approach a pile of raw stones. Her blood-red pupil skill activated, causing her eyes to turn crimson, as if she could see through the outer appearance of the stones to their essence. She reached out and picked a stone, gently made a slash, and the stone skin split open, revealing a Spirit Stone the size of a clay pot, dazzlingly bright.

"Wow!" The onlookers exclaimed in awe.

"Li Gang Leader’s reputation is well-deserved; the first stone she cut already revealed such a treasure!"

Li Xueyue smiled complacently, saying nothing.

Gu Sheng remained expressionless as he walked to another pile of raw stones. He closed his eyes, simultaneously activating the Great Moon Pupil Skill and the Grass Vine Demon Soul to peer into the interior of the raw stone. After a moment, he selected a stone the size of a pillow, made a gentle cut, and the light from a purple Spirit Stone illuminated the entire stone gambling yard.

"It’s actually a purple Spirit Stone, its value is no less than Li Gang Leader’s!"

"This youngster has quite the eye for it."

The crowd erupted in conversation again, and Li Xueyue’s expression changed slightly.

In the second round, Li Xueyue once again used the blood-red pupil skill to select a raw stone, which, when cut open, revealed a thumb-sized blade tip, emitting a frightening aura.

"Is this... part of an ancient treasure?"

"At least at the level of a Holy Artifact, Li Gang Leader is sure to win this time!"

The raw stone Gu Sheng selected contained an Earth Element Fruit when cut open, exuding a fragrance that immediately prompted an offer of a million Spirit Stones to purchase it.

"An Earth Element Fruit, it’s a rare treasure indeed!"

"Who is this youngster really?"

"This youngster can actually hold his own against Li Xueyue, impressive."

The comments from the onlookers flowed continuously, though most did not have high hopes for Gu Sheng.

Xing Lie, Wu Tianxiong, Kou Hai, Ying Tianxing, and the big black dog, however, cheered and encouraged Gu Sheng incessantly.

"Brother Gu, you can do it!"

"Defeat her and show her our strength!"

The big black dog was even more excited, jumping around and barking wildly.

Gu Sheng felt the support of his friends, standing more resolute. He activated the Ancient Sacred Body, golden light flowed over his flesh, the grid-like golden light forming a protective armor around his body. He released a golden palm strike to meet Li Xueyue’s Green Blood Sword, producing a deafening clash.

Li Xueyue sneered, "You think you can block me this way?"

As she spoke, her figure flickered, circumventing Gu Sheng’s palm to strike at his back. However, as if anticipating this, Gu Sheng spun around, avoiding the deadly blow.

"Gale Nine Swords!" Gu Sheng shouted lowly, the Jade Maiden Seven-Colored Sword in his hand transforming into nine blades of light, attacking Li Xueyue. This was one of his ultimate skills, each sword carrying incredible power.

Li Xueyue’s figure fluttered, easily dodging several sword lights, but still, one sword light tore her sleeve. She was secretly startled by the ingenuity of this youngster’s swordsmanship.
