Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 258

Chapter 258: Chapter 150: Chaos Ends, Gu Xiaojiang Selected for Red Cloud Guard

Gu Sheng felt overjoyed and quickly opened the panel to check.

[Name]: Gu Sheng

[Age]: 17

[Realm]: Bone Refining Realm (Copper Bone)

[Martial Arts]: Chopping Wood (First-level Tearing), Archery (First-level Penetration), Iron Stone Fist (First-level Heavy Force), Shapeshifting (First-level Strong Body), Snake Breath Skill (First-level Snake Breath), Flying Thunder Leg (First-level Extreme Speed), Golden Body Skill (Perfect 30%), Three Styles of Furious Blood (Perfect 44%), Helian Weapon Casting Skill (Small Success 69%), Blood Activation Skill (Small Success 80%), Shadow Concealment Skill (Entry-level 1%)

...

Seeing the Shadow Concealment Skill on the panel, Gu Sheng couldn’t help but grin.

He had personally witnessed the abnormality of the Shadow Concealment Skill. Qian Jin, merely at Small Success level, could render himself invisible to the naked eye. If one reached Great Success or even Perfect level, even someone at the Marrow Refining Realm might not be able to detect any flaws.

The Shadow Concealment Skill could hide one’s form, while the Snake Breath Skill could conceal one’s aura. These two complemented each other, producing a doubled effect.

Since the Shadow Concealment Skill had already been recorded on the panel, all Gu Sheng needed to do was follow the steps to cultivate. He no longer required the cultivation manual, so he took out a firestone and burned the shirt with the Shadow Concealment technique written on it.

Qian Jin, upon seeing this scene, couldn’t help but yell out, "Hey! Why did you burn it?! I don’t have enough blood left to write another one for you!"

Qian Jin discreetly pulled out a healing pill from his chest pocket and swallowed it. After a while, he gradually regained some strength, and under the drug’s effects, his internal organs no longer hurt as much.

Standing up from the ground, Qian Jin looked at Gu Sheng with wary eyes. "The cultivation technique is already yours. Can I leave now?"

Gu Sheng’s face broke into a cold smile. "Of course not!"

Upon hearing this, Qian Jin’s face turned pale with shock as he leapt back a step, fixing his gaze on Gu Sheng.

"You better think this through! You swore on your Martial Dao heart just now that you would spare my life! If you violate it, aren’t you afraid of being entangled by the Heart Demon?"

Gu Sheng burst into laughter. "I never said I’d kill you, so why are you so worked up?"

Before Qian Jin had the chance to breathe a sigh of relief, Gu Sheng suddenly made a move, gripping Qian Jin’s neck in one swift motion.

"What are you trying to do?!"

Gu Sheng pulled out a steel needle over ten centimeters long, a smile that was unnervingly warm spread across his face. "Bear it for a moment; it won’t hurt for long!"

With that, he angled the steel needle at 45 degrees upward and pierced it into the back of Qian Jin’s skull.

The steel needle entered Qian Jin’s head, and Gu Sheng rhythmically flicked the end of the needle.

This method was commonly used by hunters who caught robust pairs of male and female prey. The purpose was to make the prey lose its ability to think independently, leaving only basic instincts like eating, drinking, defecating, sleeping, and mating.

And that was just the silver notes. Gu Sheng had also unearthed a stash of pills from Qian Jin’s possessions, which included thirteen Bone Protecting Pills in addition to the Bone Strengthening Pill obtained from Bai Yuqi.

These pills alone were more than enough to sustain Gu Sheng’s rapid cultivation for quite some time.

"What a massive haul!"

As Gu Sheng packed up his gains and prepared to leave, the sound of rushing wind suddenly reached his ears—it was someone moving toward him at incredible speed.

The commotion alone revealed that the person was no ordinary individual. Realizing this, Gu Sheng quickly hid himself in a corner, deploying both the Snake Breath Skill and Shadow Concealment Skill simultaneously.

A moment later, a figure entered Gu Sheng’s line of sight.

"Master Ge?"

Upon identifying the person, Gu Sheng was slightly startled. He couldn’t fathom why someone of Ge Qing’s status would be here—normally, someone like him would disdain scavenging for leftovers.

At that moment, Ge Qing was crouched over the area where Liu Honglie had devoured Bai Yuqi. He grabbed a handful of blood-soaked dirt and brought it to his nose for a careful sniff.

After inhaling the scent of blood mixed with a unique, peculiar aroma, Ge Qing furrowed his brows deeply.

"Demonic Qi! How could there be Demonic Qi in a place like this?"
