Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1176 - 612: An Extremely Important Figure

Within the Xinghong Spirit Domain, thanks to his bond with the Tianxuan Divine Girl, no outsiders dare provoke him lightly, and some might grasp this chance to ally with the enigmatic and formidable Purple Spirit Divine Mountain.

After suffering defeat, the Qian Kun King spat out some ruthless threats.

Those threats might soon turn into reality. The Tianxuan Divine Girl cannot remain in Tianlan Sacred Land indefinitely.

The instant she departs, Qian Kun King will unleash savage vengeance without any restraint.

During their return to Tianlan Sacred Land, Gongsun Yue spoke respectfully, "Holy Mother, Gu Sheng’s leg injuries are severe; could you bestow a Healing Spirit Pill to save him?"

The Holy Mother drew a top-grade Spirit Pill from her bosom and passed it to Gongsun Yue, stating, "This pill will aid in healing his wounds; hurry and deliver it to him."

Gongsun Yue swiftly took it with both hands, turned to Gu Sheng, and said softly, "Gu Sheng, take this pill quickly."

Gu Sheng accepted the pill and swallowed it down.

Aided by the Holy Mother, Gu Sheng channeled the Spiritual Power inside him. His legs surged with Spiritual Power, and the grave injuries started mending visibly at a rapid pace.

Gongsun Yue also detailed all the events from the Holy Road to the Tianlan Saint Master.

"Saint Master, on this Holy Road journey, Wang Feng got body-seized, and Murong Qingcheng committed suicide too."

Tianlan Saint Master let out a sigh, "I’ll make everything clear to their families. Their sacrifices won’t go to waste."

The group pressed onward, soaring through the skies for a while. Growing curious about Tianxuan Divine Girl’s plans, Tianlan Saint Master probed gently, "Tianxuan Divine Girl, how long do you intend to stay in our Tianlan Sacred Land?"

Tianxuan Divine Girl answered enigmatically, "I came to Tianlan Sacred Land seeking someone, but I can’t reveal who just yet."

Gongsun Yue said with thrill, "Could it be that Tianxuan Divine Girl’s fiancé hails from our Tianlan Sacred Land?"

Luo Jun added, "If so, our Tianlan Sacred Land would truly become unstoppable."

Meanwhile, after two hours of cultivation, Gu Sheng’s leg injuries had fully recovered.

He rose, tested his legs, and planned to depart Tianlan Sacred Land to forge his own path.

How could he ignore Tianlan Sacred Land’s life-saving grace? If he left now, they’d face Qian Kun King’s frenzied retaliation.

He himself would face endless pursuit for his deeds on the Holy Road.

After internal deliberation, he chose to return to Tianlan Sacred Land first to visit his younger sister and master before deciding his fate.

Tianlan Saint Master guided the group, flying high nine days in the heavens.

Their silhouettes faded into the clouds, streaking by at blinding speed.

Soon enough, the grand mountain gate of Tianlan Sacred Land loomed in the distance.

News of the Holy Road events swiftly spread across the Xinghong Spirit Domain.

Forces inside the Xinghong Spirit Domain weren’t the only ones informed; even distant Holy Lands caught word.

Ever more cultivators learned of the earth-shattering genius who rose from Tianlan Sacred Land.

This prodigy crushed all domain talents on the Holy Road and even triumphed over foes from Purple Spirit Realm.

Enveloped in coiling clouds and immortal qi within Tianlan Sacred Land, an ancient pavilion towered aloft. A white-haired elder stood gazing toward the Holy Road’s direction, with several elders assembled nearby.

"I wonder how this year’s Holy Road training fared."

Tianlan Sacred Land’s Third Elder shook his head faintly, sighing, "If our Tianlan Sacred Land secures a mid-level rank among the Seven Great Sacred Lands without placing dead last, that’d count as success."

Silence gripped the assembly. Among the ten disciples sent by their sacred land, only Murong Qingcheng and Gongsun Yue stood out truly; the rest paled in comparison.

The Second Elder voiced his discontent, "What was that Tianshan Taoist thinking, naming his disciple Gu Sheng as Saint Heir? It crushes the drive of other disciples."

The Seventh Elder’s lips twitched slightly, "I pinned great hopes on Wang Feng. Maybe on this Holy Road, he’d blaze brilliantly and honor our Tianlan Sacred Land."

The Second Elder’s eyes gleamed as he said hastily, "Should Wang Feng excel, upon their return, we ought to urge the Sect Master to appoint him the new Saint Heir."

Then the Second Elder’s expression darkened once more, "That Gu Sheng, hmph, utterly worthless. As Saint Heir, he was once my granddaughter’s betrothed. When he returns from Holy Road, I’ll ensure he’s booted from Tianlan Sacred Land!"

All grasped the underlying intent in the Second Elder’s statement.

Far off on the horizon, Tianlan Saint Master escorted the Holy Road returnees.

Reaching the Elder Hall, a vigilant elder blurted, "Huh? Some disciples are absent? Did mishaps occur on the Holy Road?"

The Seventh Elder stayed indifferent, flicking his hand, "Those average disciples—dead is dead, no pity needed."

The crowd scanned the returning disciples. Gu Sheng, Gongsun Yue, Luo Jun, and others were intact, but Wang Feng and Murong Qingcheng remained absent.

The Second Elder strode forward, pressing urgently, "Saint Master, where are Murong Qingcheng and Wang Feng? What became of those two?"

Tianlan Saint Master responded gravely, "Murong Qingcheng and Wang Feng both perished on the Holy Road. One ended her own life, the other fell to murder."
