Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World-Chapter 1181 - 614: Critical Moment (Part 2)

After a while, Gu Sheng shouted loudly, his left hand quickly clenched into a fist and raised high, while his right hand blasted forward with tremendous speed.

This punch, in terms of both strength and speed, was several times stronger than the previous one.

There was a loud bang, and the giant rock in front was punched into a deep dent.

Gu Sheng looked at his own achievement, a satisfied smile on his face.

"Hmm, there’s progress. This ’Heaven-breaking Fist’ is indeed powerful, worthy of being called the strongest Body Refinement Martial Technique among the Seven Great Sacred Lands."

Gu Sheng wiped the sweat off his forehead.

There was still a long way to truly master this martial technique. He wasn’t in a hurry; since Tianlan Sacred Land acquired it, no one had successfully cultivated it, and the fact that he had made such progress in just one day was already amazing.

Tianlan Saint Master stood with his hands behind his back, having waited for two whole days.

During these two days, his expression became increasingly impatient, and he could no longer hold back, channeling Spiritual Power, and using the Sound Transmission Technique to ask Daoist Xiushan, who was in charge of the Book Collection Pavilion: "How is that Gu Sheng inside? It’s been two days, why hasn’t he come out yet?"

At that moment, Daoist Xiushan was patrolling inside the Book Collection Pavilion when the voice of the Saint Master rang in his mind. He quickly stopped walking and replied respectfully: "Reporting to the Saint Master, Gu Sheng is painstakingly cultivating the Heaven-breaking Fist on the fifth floor."

"What? Heaven-breaking Fist!"

Tianlan Saint Master was full of disbelief, "That is a Holy-level Martial Technique that no one in Tianlan Sacred Land has ever successfully cultivated! Is he really cultivating this technique? Or was there a mistake?"

Full of doubt, Tianlan Saint Master was anxious, as the Heaven-breaking Fist was extremely difficult, and numerous talented individuals had tried to cultivate it in the past, all ending in failure. How could a small disciple like Gu Sheng accomplish it?

He urgently sent a sound transmission to Daoist Xiushan: "Hurry, make that Gu Sheng switch to another martial technique for cultivation. This Heaven-breaking Fist is not something he can touch."

Receiving the Saint Master’s order, Daoist Xiushan sighed helplessly and turned to head towards the fifth floor.

Along the way, his steps were a bit heavy, fraught with internal conflict.

The Saint Master’s orders could not be disobeyed, but he had a vague feeling that there was something extraordinary about Gu Sheng’s cultivation of the Heaven-breaking Fist.

Soon, Daoist Xiushan arrived on the fifth floor. From a distance, he saw Gu Sheng sitting cross-legged on the ground, his aura chaotic yet bearing an explosive tendency.

Just as Daoist Xiushan was about to approach Gu Sheng, a sudden change occurred.

Gu Sheng’s body suddenly straightened, and an immense force erupted from his physical body. This power carried an unstoppable momentum that even made Daoist Xiushan pause.

Daoist Xiushan carefully felt the aura emanating from Gu Sheng, and a startling thought appeared in his mind: "Could this child be a Sacred Body?

A Sacred Body possesses extraordinary talent, making martial technique cultivation more effective with less effort. It seems highly possible! Moreover, from the looks of it, he is about to successfully master the First Level of the Heaven-breaking Fist."

Daoist Xiushan hesitated, knowing that if he interrupted Gu Sheng’s cultivation now, it could result in losing all progress and possibly cause irreparable damage to Gu Sheng.

After careful thought, Daoist Xiushan made a decision. He turned quietly and silently exited the fifth floor.

Outside, Tianlan Saint Master grew increasingly anxious and asked via sound transmission once more: "How did it go? Did Gu Sheng change his martial technique?"

Daoist Xiushan hesitated for a moment but still replied: "Rest assured, Saint Master, the matter has been handled."

In truth, he was full of trepidation, praying that Gu Sheng could successfully cultivate in a short period, as this was also buying time for Gu Sheng.

Tianlan Saint Master was not entirely reassured and said coldly: "Regardless, make sure Gu Sheng is out within a day; otherwise, don’t blame me for being merciless."

Daoist Xiushan could only respond with a strained voice: "Yes, Saint Master." He paced back and forth inside the Book Collection Pavilion, pondering how to buy more time for Gu Sheng to successfully cultivate.

Unaware of all that was happening outside, Gu Sheng was fully immersed in the cultivation of the Heaven-breaking Fist.

His hands moved rapidly, sometimes clenching into fists, sometimes stretching, each movement carrying a unique rhythm.

In his mind, he continuously recalled the cultivation formula and the key points of the Heaven-breaking Fist techniques, trying repeatedly to perfectly fuse Spiritual Power with physical strength.

"This move requires using Spiritual Power as a guide to drive the physical strength and blast out with full force, only then can it possess the might to destroy heaven and earth."

Gu Sheng muttered under his breath as he simultaneously mobilized the Spiritual Power within him, channeling it to his arms, and suddenly unleashed a punch.

As the punch was released, a muffled sound echoed through the air as if an invisible force was pulsating. However, Gu Sheng felt that the power of this punch still did not meet his expectations.

"Again!"

Gu Sheng gathered Spiritual Power once more, this time more focused, concentrating all his strength into his right fist.

With a low shout, he unleashed his right fist with full force, this punch was even stronger than before, the wind from the punch whistling as if capable of tearing through the air.

Yet Gu Sheng still was not satisfied, as he was just a step away from successfully mastering the First Level of the Heaven-breaking Fist.

Tianlan Saint Master stood outside the Book Collection Pavilion, growing increasingly suspicious and wary of Gu Sheng, thinking: "What is Gu Sheng up to, exactly?

If he really cultivates the Heaven-breaking Fist, with his nature, he might be hard to control in the future. Hmph, once he emerges, I must test him thoroughly."

Meanwhile, among the crowd, Mu Zhiyong’s gaze occasionally drifted to the entrance of the Book Collection Pavilion, his eyes filled with malicious intent.

"Gu Sheng, you harmed Murong Qingcheng; today is the day you die. Though my skills do not match yours, the mysterious hidden weapon given by the Second Elder will certainly take your life and avenge Qingcheng."

Mu Zhiyong clenched his fists, full of vengeful anger.

He occasionally touched the hidden weapon in his bosom, as it was his last reliance.

Mu Zhiyong had long grown impatient, pacing back and forth: "What’s Gu Sheng doing, staying in there for so long and not coming out, could he have just abandoned us?"

An impatient person suddenly shouted out, suggesting: "Why don’t we go in and drag him out? How can we let him dawdle inside like this?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Gongsun Yue rebuked loudly: "How dare you! This Book Collection Pavilion is such a place, how can you act willfully? Gu Sheng is inside cultivating, how can you disturb him casually."

Gongsun Yue held a high position in Tianlan Sacred Land, and after her scolding, the crowd fell silent.

Mu Zhiyong was so frightened that he shivered and instinctively took a step back, only to look at Tianlan Saint Master for help.

Tianlan Saint Master quietly observed the argument among the juniors.

With his hands behind his back, he thought, "At most, Gu Sheng will come out within half a day."

Internally, he was far from calm. The words of the Second Elder and the Seventh Elder from before echoed in his ears, stirring a sense of greed over the inheritance Gu Sheng might receive.

Unless Gu Sheng displays unparalleled potential, he would find it difficult to quash this greed.

Just as the situation was at a standstill, a loud explosion was heard coming from the north of Tianlan Sacred Land.

A purple-red mushroom cloud rose into the sky, reaching up to the heavens. The cloud’s color was bizarre, radiating a mysterious and dangerous aura.

The faint sound of a dragon’s lamentation could be heard. This sound was low and sorrowful, making it terrifying to hear.

"What’s going on?"

"It seems to be coming from the direction of the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range."

"Something happened in the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range!"

The Hidden Dragon Mountain Range was extremely important to Tianlan Sacred Land, with large amounts of Spirit Stones mined from there every year, sustaining the operation of Tianlan Sacred Land.

The elders of Tianlan Sacred Land dared not delay and immediately flew with their swords to the Hidden Dragon Mountain Range to investigate.

Tianlan Saint Master was filled with hesitation, ever since the Holy Mother fell ill, Tianlan Sacred Land had been plagued by changes, making him suspect whether all this was related to the dreadful Heavenly Dao Curse.

He had initially resolved to seize Gu Sheng’s inheritance, but this sudden change made him hesitant again. He decided to wait and see Gu Sheng’s performance first, and if Gu Sheng did not perform well, he would show no mercy.

Meanwhile, inside the Book Collection Pavilion, Daoist Xiushan was watching Gu Sheng in cultivation with a solemn expression.

Gu Sheng sat cross-legged, eyes closed, his aura surging around him. Daoist Xiushan knew that Gu Sheng was at a critical moment in his cultivation.
