Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1327

Chapter 1327: Chapter 687: Success! (2)

"It’s time to leave."

Gu Sheng scanned his surroundings, finally resting his eyes on the deepest part of the cave where Yang Qi was continuously erupting.

Even from a hundred meters away, he could feel the astonishing energy fluctuations emanating from there.

"That is..."

Gu Sheng squinted, his heart involuntarily racing.

"The source of Yang Qi?"

Curiosity grew wildly, like weeds.

Gu Sheng knew that with his current strength, approaching recklessly would be suicidal. But...

"With this, it should be fine."

Gu Sheng took out a simple little bell from his bosom, its body covered with mysterious runes, trembling slightly in the Yang Qi.

[Ancient Reincarnation Bell] — This was the supreme treasure he obtained during a secret realm expedition, capable of withstanding extreme environments.

It was precisely relying on this that Gu Sheng could cultivate in the depths of Golden Crow Mountain for so long.

"Let’s risk it!"

Gu Sheng threw the small bell overhead. The bell instantly enlarged, enveloping him entirely within.

Upon stepping into the space within the bell, Gu Sheng felt a coolness permeate his body, significantly alleviating the external heat and pressure.

He cautiously maneuvered the Reincarnation Bell, slowly moving towards the source of the Yang Qi.

With every meter forward, the pressure multiplied.

Even with the protection of the Reincarnation Bell, Gu Sheng could feel the suffocating oppression.

The bell emitted a hum of strain.

"Such terrifying Yang Qi..."

Sweat oozed from Gu Sheng’s forehead.

"No wonder even those old monsters dare not approach lightly."

Eighty meters... sixty meters... forty meters...

As the distance shortened, the pressure grew increasingly terrifying.

Gu Sheng had to exert all his Spiritual Power to maintain the Reincarnation Bell’s operation.

Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, his internal organs feeling as though clutched by an invisible giant hand.

"Hang in there..."

Gu Sheng gritted his teeth, a fierce determination in his eyes.

"Having come this far, I can’t give up!"

Twenty meters... ten meters...

Finally, just as the Reincarnation Bell was about to collapse, Gu Sheng reached his destination.

Through the bell’s wall, he saw a fist-sized groove and within it, a gemstone so red it was almost purple.

"This is..."

Gu Sheng’s eyes widened, his breath nearly stopping.

The gemstone was no bigger than a thumb, yet exuded an intimidating energy fluctuation.

It floated quietly in the center of the groove, continuously releasing the purest Yang Dao Qi.

The surface of the gemstone was covered with natural patterns, vaguely forming the image of a Golden Crow soaring with outstretched wings.

"The mountain’s treasure!"

This thought flashed through Gu Sheng’s mind, his heart racing uncontrollably.

"This must be the core of Golden Crow Mountain!"

He stared greedily at the gemstone, countless thoughts flashing through his mind.

If he could obtain it... his cultivation would advance by leaps and bounds, perhaps even...

"But this belongs to the Qinghe Holy Land..."

Reason reminded him.

"If discovered..."

Gu Sheng’s expression shifted back and forth.

He recalled his grievances with Qinghe Holy Land, and how his name topped the task board of Dragon Palace...

"Heh..."

Gu Sheng suddenly laughed, a trace of madness in his smile.

"Since it’s already a life-and-death situation, what do I have to fear?"

The closer Gu Sheng got to the source of Yang Qi, the weaker the surrounding pressure became, as if intentionally restrained by some power.

"Strange..."

Gu Sheng muttered, tentatively reaching out a finger. As his fingertip approached three inches from the purple-red gemstone, a surge of heat struck him, causing him to instinctively retract his hand, finding blisters forming on his fingertip.

"Such aggressive Yang Qi!"

Gu Sheng squinted, observing the groove’s structure attentively.

The edge where the gemstone touched the rock revealed intricate patterns, both naturally formed and possibly man-made arrays.

He tried using his fingernail to pry at the edge of the gemstone but couldn’t even find a gap.

"Seems force won’t work."
