Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 1603

Chapter 1603: Chapter 824: This Is an Order_2

He felt his control over the Blood Jade’s body suddenly become extremely sluggish and blurry!

As if a power so overwhelming it was impossible to resist was forcibly severing the connection between him and the puppet!

"Not good!"

Alarm bells blared in Gu Sheng’s heart!

He snapped his gaze toward Jin’er!

In the depths of Jin’er’s eyes, which had originally been calm as still water, there now flickered an extremely subtle yet bone-chilling golden light!

An indescribable, terrifying pressure, as if it could suppress all heavens and all realms, erupted like a waking dragon, taking her as the center!

This pressure was not aimed at the flesh, but directly at the Divine Soul! In an instant, it enveloped the entire cave!

Thud! Thud!

Old Xiong and Old Array took the brunt of it, as if an invisible giant mountain had slammed down on their heads; they groaned, collapsed limply to the ground, blood spilling from mouth and nose, their gazes going vacant as they instantly lost Consciousness!

Zhao Boyang’s face also turned deathly pale, his body shaking violently.

He clenched his teeth hard, circulating his True Yuan through his entire body to resist, only barely managing not to fall, but his eyes were filled with unspeakable horror!

And Gu Sheng (Blood Jade)’s body was as if immobilization spell had been cast upon it, frozen in place!

His (Gu Sheng’s) Consciousness felt as though it had fallen into a quagmire; his connection to the Blood Jade body was forcibly suppressed and peeled away by that terrifying pressure!

"The game... should end now."

Jin’er’s voice rang out, no longer the previous icy chill, but carrying an indescribable aloofness and majesty, as if descending from the Ninth Heaven.

She slowly raised her right hand, lightly pointing at the rigid Blood Jade!

A rune condensed to the extreme, radiating blazing golden light, instantly sank into Blood Jade’s glabella!

"Ah—!"

A shriek so miserable it no longer sounded human burst from Blood Jade’s mouth!

That was the last residual soul Consciousness of the Evil Cultivator Black Snake attached to the puppet’s body; under the purification of the golden rune, it was annihilated in an instant!

And Gu Sheng’s Consciousness, under that one point, also completely severed its connection with the Blood Jade body! A wave of intense dizziness and tearing pain rushed in!

"Yuanyuan! Enter the Divine Craft Maze Palace!"

Before Gu Sheng’s true-body Consciousness was completely forced back, he only had time to send a hurried order to Gu Yuanyuan!

Immediately, his Consciousness was like a kite with its string cut, yanked back in an instant into his true body deep within the ruins!

Inside the cave.

After the golden rune sank in, Blood Jade’s body trembled violently a few times, then the light in its eyes completely disappeared, turning hollow and lifeless, like a true puppet doll, collapsing limply to the ground.

Jin’er slowly withdrew her finger, the golden light in her eyes gradually fading, returning to its previous calm.

She didn’t spare so much as a glance at the unconscious Old Xiong and Old Array on the ground, nor at the barely-standing Zhao Boyang; her gaze fell upon the collapsed Blood Jade, the corner of her lips curving with an extremely faint arc, as if she held everything in the palm of her hand.

"Finally... it’s quiet."

She murmured softly to herself, her voice carrying a barely noticeable fatigue, yet suffused with supreme majesty.

Zhao Boyang stared at this unbelievable scene before him, staring at the collapsed Blood Jade, feeling the terrifying aura on Jin’er’s body that had erupted in an instant and then swiftly withdrawn, yet still made his soul tremble—his mind went completely blank!

He opened his mouth, but no sound came out; only boundless fear and confusion surged like an icy tide, completely drowning him!

Deep within the ruins, in the wreckage of the abandoned palace.

Gu Sheng, who had been sitting cross-legged, snapped his eyes wide open! Pain and grim solemnity flashed within them!

He let out a muffled grunt, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth! Being forcibly cut off from the puppet had also inflicted a certain impact on his Divine Soul!

"Master!"

Gu Yuanyuan, who had been guarding at his side, was aghast when she saw this. Her expression changed drastically as she hurried forward.

"I’m fine."

Gu Sheng raised his hand, signaling her to stop. His gaze was sharp as lightning as he swept around in an instant, his powerful Divine Sense roaring forth, warily covering every inch of space around them!

"Jin’er..."

Huge waves surged in Gu Sheng’s heart! That terrifying pressure which had forced his Consciousness back in an instant, that blazing golden light... was absolutely no ordinary method!

"Gu?"

Shen Qingtan’s voice came through the face-plate, cold yet carrying inquiry.

Gu Sheng dispensed with pleasantries; time was pressing.

With a thought, he immediately issued a command within his Sea of Consciousness.

A dim light flashed at his chest, and a miniature palace hall, no larger than a palm, with a body of dark bronze luster and an ancient, intricate design, slowly separated out, hovering above his palm.

Though small, the bronze palace radiated an indescribable ancient and mysterious aura—it was the Divine Craft Maze Palace.

"Miss Shen, I must trouble you."

Gu Sheng extended this miniature bronze palace toward Shen Qingtan, his tone grave.

"Please take this item back to Great Wilderness City at once and personally deliver it into the hands of Tantai Xueling of Linyin Pavilion. It must be handed over by your own hand!"

He did not explain what this palace was, nor did he spell out the intricacies within it, but the uncompromising solemnity in his voice made Shen Qingtan instantly realize that this object was anything but ordinary.

Without hesitation, she extended both hands and carefully received the tiny bronze palace.

The palace was icy cold to the touch, as if it contained some kind of slumbering power.

She put it away with great care, keeping it close to her body, and nodded.

"Rest assured, I will not fail the mission."

Gu Sheng’s gaze then turned to Gu Yuanyuan at his side. His eyes softened a fraction, but still carried an unquestionable decisiveness.

"Yuanyuan, you will go to Great Wilderness City together with Miss Shen."

Hearing this, Gu Yuanyuan’s petite body trembled slightly. She raised her head to look at Gu Sheng, her eyes full of reluctance and worry.

"Master..."

"Do as I say."

Gu Sheng cut her off, his voice low yet imbued with strength.

"The danger here far exceeds what you can imagine. If you stay, I won’t be able to spare attention to protect you. Go to Great Wilderness City, find Tantai Xueling, reveal your identity to her—she will keep you safe. This is an order."
