Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World Chapter 1782 - 904: One Punch Sends Him Flying! The Earth King Is Stunned

...

At this moment, atop the arena.

Gu Sheng and Lu Chensong stood facing each other, three zhang apart.

Lu Chensong swept his gaze over the dense crowd beneath the stage with a gloomy expression, then looked at Gu Sheng, whose expression remained serene, fueling his sense of "seeing through the truth" superiority once more.

He thought Gu Sheng was just a pawn sent to his death, perhaps regretting immensely and filled with fear at this moment.

He deliberately raised his voice, speaking in a tone as if bestowing charity.

"Gu Sheng, it’s not too late to regret now.

As long as you kneel in public, kowtow three times to this Young Master, admit that you are a worthless person who relies on Tantai Xuefei to survive, I might just show great mercy and spare your life, only abolishing your cultivation."

He attempted to provoke Gu Sheng with words, even fantasizing about Gu Sheng defecting on the spot, betraying Tantai Xuefei, which would certainly be a spectacular scene, benefiting him greatly in reputation and profit.

However, in the face of his provocations, Gu Sheng merely glanced at him indifferently, as if looking at a ridiculous clown immersed in his own world, lacking even the slightest interest in responding.

Lu Chensong took a deep breath, forcefully suppressing the anger ignited by Gu Sheng’s dismissive attitude, quickly recounting the causes and consequences in his mind, growing more certain in his judgment—

This Gu Sheng was meticulously chosen by Tantai Xuefei, intended to sever ties with him completely, maybe even to ensnare him!

With this thought, his heart grew calmer instead, looking at Gu Sheng with an eye full of scheming and a barely noticeable trace of greed.

He resolved not only to kill this irksome boy but also to seize this opportunity to extract even greater benefits from Tantai Xuefei!

"Gu Sheng!"

Lu Chensong’s voice bore a searing mockery.

"I don’t know what benefits Tantai Xuefei promised you, making you come here so recklessly to die! But do you really think, with your insignificant Sect Realm cultivation, you can shake the Earth King Realm? Na?ve! Ridiculous!"

Before his words finished, the aura around him surged violently, and the overwhelming pressure of the Earth King Realm Second Realm burst forth without restraint! As his center, the substantial weight spread to the surroundings, and the hard Xuangang Stone of the arena emitted subtle "crack" sounds, showing cobweb-like cracks! The onlookers felt their breath taken away, instinctively stepping back with expressions of fright and dread on their faces.

At this moment, two elders clad in Tantai Family attire, emanating profound auras, clearly reaching King Realm, leaped onto the stage. They were supervisors sent by the Ten Thousand Treasures Hall to ensure the fair conduct of the life-and-death duel, preventing outside interference.

One of the elders glanced over Gu Sheng and Lu Chensong, speaking solemnly.

"The life and death contract and wager have been established, do either side have any objections?"

Gu Sheng shook his head calmly.

Lu Chensong snorted coldly.

"No objections! Quickly start!"

He was already impatient.

The other elder, seeing this, said no more, raising his hand with a wave.

"Dong——!"

A deep and long drumbeat resounded, striking at the heart of everyone present, announcing the official commencement of the life-and-death duel!

As the drumbeat sounded, Lu Chensong’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, without a moment’s hesitation, his figure shot forward like an arrow off the string, charging towards Gu Sheng with the immense momentum of the Earth King Realm! Where he passed, the arena’s floor cracked and spread, his speed so fast it left multiple afterimages!

"Die for me! Mountain Shattering Fist!"

He roared furiously, his right fist thrusting out suddenly! Vigorously True Qi erupted, instantly forming into a massive, solid as a mountain, mound-sized, earth-yellow Fist Seal! The wind of the punch howled, carrying a terrifying force as if it could shatter mountains, pressing down fiercely on Gu Sheng, who still stood in place as if he hadn’t reacted!

"It’s over!"

"An all-out strike from the Earth King Realm, that guy is finished!"

"With such a disparity in cultivation and an advantage in the first move, the outcome is decided!"

Amidst the arena erupted a collective gasp and sigh, nearly everyone believed that under such a tremendous gap in realms and seizing the initiative, Gu Sheng stood no chance, likely unable to withstand a single blow before being crushed to dust!

However, in the instant when the giant Mountain Shattering Fist Seal was about to crash down—

Gu Sheng, who had been motionless, shifted his figure ever so slightly.

Leaving behind a remarkably deceptive afterimage on the spot!

Lu Chensong’s ferocious Fist Seal, condensed with the cultivation of Earth King Realm, penetrated the afterimage without any hindrance, crashing against the Defense Light Curtain lit up at the rear of the arena, creating a deafening boom, the Light Screen fluctuated violently, yet failed to harm Gu Sheng in the slightest!

"What?!"

Lu Chensong’s pupils contracted sharply, a siren went off in his mind, a sense of extreme danger washed over him like icy water instantly spread all over his body! Instinctively, he wanted to twist and evade!

But, it was too late!

A plain voice, ghostly, sounded beside his left ear.

"Too slow."

Immediately following, an indescribable, terrifying force as if being struck head-on by a ten-thousand-foot mountain, brutally impacted his left flank!

"Bang——!!!"

The bone-cracking sound that made one’s teeth ache was clearly audible!

Lu Chensong couldn’t even let out a scream, his entire person like a kite with a broken string, uncontrollably flew backward in a twisted manner! Faster than when he charged in!

Under countless horrified gazes, his body crashed ruthlessly against the thick, sturdy wall at the edge of the arena!

"Boom!!!"

The wall crumbled upon impact, debris flying, dust billowing, collapsing into a huge hole! Lu Chensong’s figure was buried within a heap of ruins!
