Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1573

Chapter 1573: Chapter 809: Mutation Reborn (Part 2)

"Damn it! Who’s running so fast!"

"Bastard! Only cares about escaping for themselves!"

"Why not stay and help if you’re so capable!"

Many Martial Artists cursed aloud upon seeing someone escape by sky-controlling, their voices filled with anger, jealousy, and despair.

At this life-and-death moment, seeing someone escape so easily while being trapped in a hopeless situation themselves, the resentment brought by this contrast was especially intense.

Gu Sheng ignored the cursing from below, his expression unchanged.

With Gu Yuan, he didn’t directly rush into the depths of the ruins, but instead landed in a hidden mountain hollow several miles away from the town.

The mountain hollow had higher ground and a broad view. The two stood by the cliff edge, gazing towards the town.

They saw the massive residual soul cloud completely enveloping the town!

From afar, the town appeared to be wrapped in a huge, continuously wriggling black cocoon.

Inside, bursts of intense energy light were the Martial Artists’ final resistance in despair, but the light was quickly submerged and extinguished by the boundless dark tide.

Screams, roars, energy explosions, even from miles away, still faintly reached them, carrying desperate despair.

The resistance lasted less than the time of one incense stick, before collapsing completely!

Three distinct tunneling lights suddenly shot out from the black cocoon, fleeing desperately towards directions far from the ruins without looking back!

The aura from those three tunneling lights was powerful, far exceeding the Sect Realm, they were the leaders of the Head Hunting Gang, Array Breaking Gang, and another faction!

Even these three Heavenly Martial Realm powerhouses didn’t hesitate to abandon the camp and escape alone!

As the three leaders fled, the last remnant of resistance within the camp completely collapsed.

The dark tide completely swallowed the town, countless residual souls rushed into the shabby buildings, the piercing screams rose in succession, and then quickly fell into dead silence.

The entire town was left with only the rolling, suffocating darkness.

Gu Yuan watched the scene, her face pale, her body slightly trembling.

Although she had long known the outcome, witnessing a gathering place of thousands being completely erased in such a short time, the impact still chilled her to the bone.

Instinctively, she tightly clutched the leather bag holding supplies, her knuckles turning white from the force.

"Did you see that?"

Gu Sheng’s voice sounded beside her, calm and unruffled.

"That is the fate of the weak. In the face of absolute power, struggle and resistance can sometimes be meaningless."

Gu Yuan suddenly turned her head to look at Gu Sheng.

That tranquil face looked especially profound against the distant dark background.

She recalled what he said at the inn about her lineage, about the deal...

A strong, unprecedented desire sprouted crazily in her heart!

She didn’t want to become one of those ants below being silently swallowed!

She didn’t want to bow and scrape for a few pieces of Low Grade Spirit Jade, disguise herself as a man, tread on thin ice just to survive!

She wanted strength! Strength sufficient to control her own fate!

"Big brother!"

Gu Yuan’s voice carried an indiscernible tremor, yet was exceptionally firm.

"The deal you mentioned before... I agree! I’m willing to follow you! Please... please teach me to become strong!"

Gu Sheng’s gaze fell on her face, watching the fire burning in her eyes, that extreme longing for strength.

"Become strong?"

Gu Sheng’s tone carried a subtle meaning.

"What is strong? Earth Martial Realm? Sect Realm? Heavenly Martial Realm? Or even higher? The definition of strong will change with your vision.

Now you think the Heavenly Martial Realm is strong, that they can fly and rule a region. But when you reach that level, you’ll find the Heavenly Martial Realm is just the beginning."

Gu Yuan was shocked.

She never considered this question. To her, breaking through to the Sect Realm was already an unattainable dream.

Heavenly Martial Realm? That was an existence she looked up to.

Even higher? What realm is that?

"I..."

She bit her lip, but her eyes grew more determined.

"I don’t know what true strength is, but I want to be stronger! Ten times, a hundred times stronger than now! Strong enough... strong enough to not just watch helplessly as others die, unable to do anything except run away!"

She seemed to make a certain decision, her knees bent, and she suddenly knelt toward Gu Sheng!
