Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1569

Chapter 1569: Chapter 807: Seen Through at a Glance (2)

They lack consciousness, only instinct for slaughter, and retain some combat experience and Martial Techniques from their lifetime, making their fighting strength extremely powerful! Most crucially, they ignore physical defenses and specialize in attacking the Divine Soul!

A residual soul at the early Sect Realm often requires three or four Martial Artists of the same realm to barely fend off or expel. In places without a stronghold, incidents of having one’s Divine Soul drained in the night by a residual soul sneaking into the house happen from time to time."

He paused, then added.

"Therefore, the price of inns in the camp varies greatly depending on whether a stronghold is maintaining them. Although the Lucky Inn is expensive, it guarantees safety."

"Let’s go to the Lucky Inn."

Gu Sheng decided directly.

"You stay too, I’ll cover the cost."

Gu Yuan was taken aback, then overjoyed.

"Thank you, big brother! Thank you, big brother!"

Being able to stay for free in a secure inn with a Heavenly Martial Realm powerful figure is like a pie falling from the sky!

He hurriedly led the way.

"This way, big brother!"

The two passed through the still bustling workshop and camp, arriving at a relatively quiet area in the north.

A three-story stone-wood mixed building stood before them, with a slightly old wooden sign hanging at the door—"Lucky Inn."

Consistent with the camp’s rugged style, but obviously larger in scale, there were also two men with calm auras and sharp eyes guarding the entrance, both at the peak of the Earth Martial Realm.

Entering the inn’s lobby, which was quite spacious with more than a dozen rough wooden tables, many Martial Artists were already eating or whispering. The air was filled with a mix of wine, meat, and sweat.

Behind the counter, an old man with a goatee and shrewd eyes was fiddling with an abacus; his concealed aura, faintly revealed, was even stronger than that of the two guards at the door, clearly having Sect Realm cultivation!

A laborer in a gray short coat, efficient with his movements, approached with a professional smile on his face.

"Esteemed guests, are you here for a meal or to stay?"

His gaze quickly swept over Gu Sheng, carrying a subtle hint of scrutiny, and when he saw the poorly dressed and low-cultivation Gu Yuan behind, his eyes held evident surprise and bewilderment. Clearly, it was rare for someone of Gu Sheng’s stature to lodge with a Martial Artist of such standing.

"To stay, two superior rooms."

Gu Sheng said directly.

"Alright! A superior room costs ten pieces of Low-Grade Spirit Jade per day, so two would be twenty."

The employee quoted the price, which was indeed considered expensive in the camp.

Gu Sheng casually took out twenty pieces of Low-Grade Spirit Jade and placed them on the counter, then asked.

"Is there dining available?"

"There is, there is!"

The employee put away the Spirit Jade, his smile growing warmer.

"Our establishment has fresh ’Iron Armor Rhinoceros’ meat recently hunted, stewed with ’Red Sun Grass’ to greatly supplement Qi-Blood! There’s also ’Clear Wind Rabbit’ meat stir-fried with ’Jade Bamboo Shoots’, tender and delicious! Mainstays include Spirit Grain Rice and meat patties. What do you think?"

"Two servings of each, delivered to the room. Also, prepare sufficient rations and water for three days."

Gu Sheng instructed.

"Understood! Arranging it right away for you!"

The employee noted it down, taking out two wooden plaques engraved with room numbers and handed them to Gu Sheng.

"Rooms Heaven Three and Four, third floor on the left-hand side, the innermost two, they’re quiet!"

Gu Sheng took the wooden plaques and led the still somewhat apprehensive Gu Yuan up the stairs.

The stairs and corridors were paved with solid wooden planks, producing a slight creaking sound underfoot.

The third floor was indeed much quieter; at the end of the corridor were two rooms, with plaques marked "Heaven Three" and "Heaven Four."

Opening the door to room Heaven Three, it was much better than Gu Yuan had imagined.

The room wasn’t large, but it was clean and tidy, with a wooden bed, a square table, two chairs, and a wooden basin stand in the corner.

The window facing north avoided the camp’s clamour. Though simple, it was considered luxurious in this ruins camp.

Soon, the employee delivered steaming hot meals.

Two large earthenware bowls, one of meat stewed to tenderness, glistening with oil and exuding a rich meat aroma mixed with a faint herbal scent; the Iron Armor Rhinoceros meat was in one, while the other had sliced bamboo shoots stir-fried with tender rabbit meat, releasing a mouthwatering fragrance.
