Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1449

Chapter 1449: Chapter 747: Something Is Coming Up from Below (Part 2)

Xu Hansong’s eyes flashed with greed.

"After the deed is done..."

"The treasure will be divided equally."

Zhang Tianxing immediately interjected.

"I just want the storage ring and cultivation technique from that kid, Xu can take the Bronze Ancient Hall."

In the scalding magma lake, Gu Sheng sat cross-legged, with the parts below his knees fully adapted to the lava that could incinerate gold and melt iron.

His skin displayed a dark golden hue, shimmering with a metallic sheen under the reflection of the magma.

"Physical Strength at the peak of the Sixth Layer Heaven..."

Gu Sheng felt the strength emanating from his legs, and his lips slightly curled.

Over the past seven days, he had experienced the agony of his flesh being burnt and reborn every day, and now he finally saw the results.

"Master, the life force in the Divine Phoenix Essence Blood seems weaker than expected."

The voice of the Innate Spirit Embryo echoed in Gu Sheng’s mind.

"The essence blood of the Ancient Divine Phoenix fallen should not be so depleted; I suspect there’s something mysterious beneath this magma lake."

Gu Sheng frowned slightly, his gaze set on the boiling magma below.

"Do you mean..."

"There might be something at the bottom absorbing the Divine Phoenix Essence Blood’s life force."

The Innate Spirit Embryo’s tone was grave.

Gu Sheng pondered for a moment and shook his head.

"Now is not the time to investigate.

The life force of this magma lake is already insufficient to sustain my tempering for much longer; I must complete the body tempering first."

With that, he submerged in the magma again. The scorching lava enveloped his body, and every breath felt like swallowing fire.

But Gu Sheng had grown accustomed to this pain, his muscles continuously strengthened between destruction and rebirth.

At the lakeside, Xie Qingxuan sat cross-legged on a protruding rock, hands sealed in a gesture, surrounded by a faint red glow.

The life force dissipating from the magma lake was slowly absorbed by her, merging into her body.

"Physical Strength at the Third Layer Heaven..."

She opened her eyes with joy upon her face. She turned to gaze at the lake’s center, where only a small vortex remained, and Gu Sheng’s silhouette had vanished completely.

"That guy is really crazy."

Xie Qingxuan murmured to herself, her eyes filled with worry.

Just then, Xie He hurriedly ran over from a distance, his face extraordinarily grave.

"Qingxuan, something terrible has happened!"

"What’s wrong?"

Xie Qingxuan stood up, dusting off the volcanic ash on her clothes.

"I was wandering outside and found that Sun and Moon Sect and Divine Blood Sect have actually allied!"

Xie He gasped urgently.

"There are more than ten Heavenly Martial Realm experts hovering around mid-mountain, suspiciously, not knowing what they’re up to."

Xie Qingxuan’s face changed abruptly.

"These two sects have always been at odds, how can they suddenly ally? Let’s go, check it out!"

As she was about to step forward, the magma lake behind her suddenly began to boil violently.

The originally calm lake surface seemed to be stirred by an invisible hand, magma surged into giant waves several feet high, and a destructive aura erupted from the center of the lake.

"Not good! Run fast!"

Xie He’s expression changed drastically, he grabbed Xie Qingxuan’s wrist, attempting to lead her away quickly.

Xie Qingxuan, however, broke free, anxiously looking towards the magma lake.

"Gu Sheng is still inside!"

"Can’t worry about that now! This magma uprising is something even Heavenly Martial Realm experts can’t withstand!"

Xie He roared in anger, seeing Xie Qingxuan still hesitating, his eyes filled with determination, and he chopped swiftly at the nape of her neck.

"You..."

Xie Qingxuan only managed to utter one word before her vision went dark, collapsing into unconsciousness.

Xie He picked up the unconscious Xie Qingxuan and ran wildly toward the mountain’s exit without looking back.

Behind him, the scorching magma splashed like torrential rain, a drop landed on Xie He’s back, instantly burning through his clothes, leaving a charred mark on his skin.

But Xie He gritted his teeth, his speed unaffected.

Meanwhile, deep within the mountain.

Xu Hansong and Zhang Tianxing stood before a huge array, with malevolent smiles on their faces. In the center of the array, a ghostly shadow of a phoenix was struggling in agony.

"Hahaha, the array is finally broken!"
