Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World

Chapter 623: Chapter 335 Old Friends Meet_2

The two confided in each other, expressing their longing over the past days. They exchanged their experiences and insights during this time, deeply admiring each other’s courage and wisdom. Especially Su Xian, who was full of admiration for Gu Sheng.

Under the influence of the alcohol, the two gradually entered a slightly intoxicated state. They began cultivating the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, pressing their palms together as their True Qi intertwined, forming a mysterious virtual world.

In this virtual world, it was as if they were transported back to the moment they first met—going from strangers to familiar acquaintances to deep love, vividly reliving the entire process. Accompanied by the ambiguous martial dual cultivation, their bond grew stronger.

”Gu Sheng, I feel as if our souls are now closer than ever,” Su Xian said, gazing at Gu Sheng with deep affection.

”Indeed, it feels as though we’ve become one,” Gu Sheng replied.

When the two awoke from the virtual world, they found themselves lying on a large bed. Crimson candles burned brilliantly, illuminating their joyful smiles. That night, they held each other tenderly, savoring this rare tranquility and happiness.

”Gu Sheng, I will always support you,” Su Xian whispered while snuggling into Gu Sheng’s embrace.

”And I will always protect you. Every moment with you is the most precious time of my life,” Gu Sheng responded deeply.

As the night deepened, the Fire Domain Holy City fell into silence. Yet, Gu Sheng and Su Xian’s hearts brimmed with anticipation and hope for the future.

A week later, Gu Sheng returned to Guardian City.

In his residence within Guardian City, Gu Sheng received a special guest—Linghu Qingwan. She wore a flowing green dress, appearing as an ethereal fairy descending into the mortal world, her beauty unworldly.

”Gu Sheng, I heard of your return and hurried over immediately,” Linghu Qingwan said with a smile.

”Miss Linghu, a rare guest indeed,” Gu Sheng greeted her, a glimmer of delight in his eyes. ”May I ask what brings you to visit today?”

”I heard of your and Su Xian the Holy Master’s extraordinary deeds and found myself inspired. I’ve come seeking to discuss the path of cultivation with you,” Linghu Qingwan admitted candidly.

Gu Sheng’s heart stirred at her words and he extended an invitation: ”Since Miss Linghu is so inclined, I happen to know of a place suitable for cultivation. Would you be interested in accompanying me?”

”Oh? Where might that be?” Linghu Qingwan asked curiously.

”The Giant Sword Secret Realm,” Gu Sheng replied with a mysterious smile.

The two eagerly agreed and promptly ventured to the Giant Sword Secret Realm. Hidden within the Void, entry to this realm required special techniques. Upon entering, they were overwhelmed by the sight before them.

The realm was filled with towering giant swords, each emanating a sharp aura. Between the swords lay vast stretches of vibrant lotus leaves that seemed to span endlessly from sky to ground. As the breeze swept through, the lotus leaves swayed gently, as if whispering secrets.

”This is truly an excellent place for cultivation,” Linghu Qingwan marveled.

Gu Sheng nodded, then unleashed his Grass Vine Demon Soul. The grass vine danced through the air, transforming instantly into blooming lotus flowers that radiated dazzling light. Next, he tossed over a thousand Purple Spirit Stones and a thousand stalks of Gathering Spirit Grass. These treasures hovered in the air before being absorbed one by one by the grass vine lotus flowers.

”Let us cultivate here,” Gu Sheng said, and together they glided across the lotus leaves in a small boat. Closing their eyes, they began dual cultivation of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra.

As the Heart Sutra activated, their consciousness gradually entered a mysterious virtual world. Within it, they found themselves rowing a small boat across a lotus pond surrounded by hazy moonlight and delicate drizzle, adding a touch of poetic charm to the scene.

On the boat, they drank tea, sipped wine, held hands... everything flowed naturally like a pair of lovers. Amid this idyllic scenery, their affection deepened.

”Gu Sheng, I feel as if I’ve entered a dreamlike world,” Linghu Qingwan whispered.

”Indeed. This virtual world is crafted from our own hearts. Here, we can fully immerse ourselves in this tranquility and beauty,” Gu Sheng replied.
