CHAPTER 511: CHAPTER 279: ENLIGHTENMENT BY THE SEA EYE_2

A colossal sea monster was being pulled forward by a group of Kunpengs, moving with lightning speed, resembling a meteor streaking underwater.

Gu Sheng stood atop the back of the Black Sea Tentacle Demon, his gaze resolute and profound.

After roughly half a year, Gu Sheng stepped off the back of the Black Sea Tentacle Demon and arrived at a nameless island.

The island was shrouded in mist and clouds, resembling an Immortal Realm. Immortal Herbs flourished, lush greenery abounded, and streams coursed between towering mountains. Waterfalls flowed vertically, their gentle sounds creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere.

Gu Sheng strolled across the island, savoring the spiritual energy here, allowing a sense of peace and harmony to fill his heart.

He suddenly noticed that Lightning Birds were inhabiting the island. These birds were agile, their feathers shimmering with a silver luster, looking like bolts of lightning darting through the sky.

After some searching, Gu Sheng was delighted to discover three bird eggs as large as watermelons. He cautiously collected them, intending to use them as food for later.

As the bird eggs roasted over a fire, a tantalizing aroma began to permeate the air, attracting a Lightning Bird.

This bird’s eyes flashed with a fierce light, clearly aware of the eggs held by Gu Sheng.

"Hmph, you want to reclaim your eggs?"

Gu Sheng sneered coldly, showing no fear.

His peak-level Golden Bone Realm cultivation was far beyond the third level of the Marrow Refining Realm. Moreover, he possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, his physique radiating golden brilliance, as if he were a gilded Arhat.

The Lightning Bird let out a sharp screech, its wings flapping as it transformed into a bolt of lightning aimed at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng moved, deploying his Carefree Ascension Step, his figure shifting unpredictably, effortlessly evading the attack of the Lightning Bird.

"Gale Nine Swords!" Gu Sheng shouted, his Jade Maiden Sword transforming into a brilliant sword aura that lashed out like a fierce storm toward the Lightning Bird.

The Jade Maiden Sword, a top-grade mystical artifact, was incomparably sharp. With one strike, a layer of the Lightning Bird’s feathers was severed.

The Lightning Bird screeched in anger, its wings vibrating again, sending bolts of lightning hurtling toward Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng shifted his form, deploying the Shadow Concealment Skill, disappearing instantly and causing the Lightning Bird’s attack to miss.

Seizing the opportunity, Gu Sheng flashed behind the Lightning Bird and wielded the Jade Maiden Sword once more, unleashing a golden sword aura aimed at the bird’s neck.

"Shkk!" The soft sound echoed as the Lightning Bird’s head was severed by Gu Sheng’s sword, blood spraying outward. Gu Sheng swiftly collected the bird’s corpse, planning to roast it as food.

Gu Sheng sat cross-legged, pulling out the top-grade mystical-level Thirsty Blood Battle Axe. With a soft swing, he meticulously removed the Lightning Bird’s feathers and internal organs. The Demon Soul entwining the axe created clean cuts, slicing the bird meat into evenly sized chunks.

Gu Sheng lit a bonfire and placed the bird meat onto the flames for slow roasting.

Soon, a mouthwatering aroma filled the air. Gu Sheng cracked open the bird eggs, pouring the liquid over the roasted meat, enhancing the fragrance even further.

As Gu Sheng immersed himself in the enticing aroma and cultivation practice, a sharp, feminine shout suddenly interrupted, jarring him from his composure.

He looked up and saw a young girl dressed in green riding a large blue bird, aggressively flying toward him.

"You’ve got some nerve eating my pet bird!"

The young girl, Lei Ying, wore an expression of fury, summoning a Thunder God Staff as thunder fire erupted skyward, descending upon Gu Sheng like a storm.

Gu Sheng furrowed his brows, his battle intent surging within him.

His body shifted, deploying Carefree Ascension Step to perfection, weaving through the storm of thunder fire with ease.

"Little girl, I found this egg—it has nothing to do with you!"

Gu Sheng barked coldly, his Jade Maiden Sword already unsheathed, prepared to fight.

"Found it? Those eggs were clearly laid by my pet bird, and you dare lie?"

Lei Ying’s face flushed in anger as she swung her Thunder God Staff again, sending torrents of thunder fire, resembling dragons, hurtling toward Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng dodged nimbly, his Gale Nine Swords executed to perfection, golden sword aura intertwining with the thunder fire, creating deafening clashes of metal.

"Little girl, don’t assume you can act recklessly just because you have an Earth-level mystical artifact!"

Gu Sheng sneered, his figure flashing behind Lei Ying, the Jade Maiden Sword forming a golden sword aura aimed at her vitals.

Lei Ying reacted swiftly, dodging Gu Sheng’s attack in time.

She was inwardly surprised, realizing that this seemingly ordinary young man possessed highly advanced cultivation and swordsmanship.

"Hmph, I’ve underestimated you,"

Lei Ying huffed coldly, her Thunder God Staff releasing an even more ferocious attack, as if it aimed to level the entire island.

Gu Sheng’s eyes flickered with seriousness, understanding that although the young girl’s cultivation wasn’t as strong as his, the Earth-level mystical artifact she wielded was not to be underestimated. Inhaling deeply, he activated his Ancient Sacred Body; golden light flowed across his frame, embodying a radiant, golden Arhat.

"Gale Nine Swords, Ninth Form—Whirlwind Devours the Clouds!"

Gu Sheng shouted, his Jade Maiden Sword morphing into a golden whirlwind that surged toward Lei Ying.

Lei Ying was startled, realizing that Gu Sheng could unleash such a formidable sword technique.

Clenching her teeth, she intensified her Thunder God Staff, engaging Gu Sheng in a world-shaking battle.

Their figures intertwined in midair, sword light and thunder fire merging in a cacophony of deafening sounds.

On the island, Immortal Herbs were sent flying, and the streams and waterfalls churned tumultuously.

After a fierce clash, Gu Sheng finally pinpointed Lei Ying’s weakness, striking the Thunder God Staff from her hands with a single blow. Lei Ying let out a cry as her figure was knocked backward.

Gu Sheng flashed forward, appearing before Lei Ying, his Jade Maiden Sword poised at her throat.

"Little girl, admit defeat," Gu Sheng declared coldly.

Lei Ying’s face turned pale, realizing her defeat. A sense of humiliation surged within her.

But her stubborn nature made her unwilling to concede easily.

Lei Ying quickly summoned over thirty martial artists, all pirates with imposing cultivation levels.

Gu Sheng’s gaze turned icy as he faced thirty pirates, each above the Marrow Refining Realm, without showing any trace of fear.

The Ancient Sacred Body surged within him, golden light streaming forth, resembling the arrival of a golden War God.

Lei Ying, perched atop the large blue bird, looked down at Gu Sheng with a sneer:

"Hmph, let’s see how you escape from these thirty pirates."

Gu Sheng chuckled coldly, his Jade Maiden Sword emanating the aura of a top-grade mystical artifact, instilling dread in all who faced him. He

moved, deploying Carefree Ascension Step, his figure shifting unpredictably like an Immortal descending.

"Gale Nine Swords, First Form!"

Gu Sheng shouted, a golden sword aura cutting through the air, piercing through the head of a pirate.

The pirate failed to react in time and was killed instantly.

Seeing this, the remaining pirates roared in anger and charged at him.

Gu Sheng’s movements were elusive as he unleashed Gale Nine Swords relentlessly. Golden sword aura collided with the weapons of the pirates, producing piercing metallic sounds.

Lei Ying smirked coldly, saying, "Hmph, some skill, but it’s far from enough."

As she spoke, her hands formed a sealing, and the Demon Soul of Green Vine surged from her body, entangling toward Gu Sheng.

Wherever the Green Vine Demon Soul passed, it radiated corrosive energy, forcing the pirates to retreat out of fear.

Gu Sheng felt the corrosive force of the Green Vine Demon Soul and was alarmed.

He swiftly activated his Ancient Sacred Body, intensifying the golden radiance that repelled the Demon Soul.

"Little girl, you dare ambush me!"

Gu Sheng shouted coldly, moving to unleash his Shadow Concealment Skill to teach Lei Ying a lesson.

Underneath a massive tree, a pirate suddenly activated a magical treasure, transforming it into a wall of light that trapped Gu Sheng.

"Haha, let’s see where you can run to now!"

The pirate leader laughed as he brandished a giant axe and struck at Gu Sheng.

Gu Sheng’s heart sank, recognizing the predicament he was in.

But he remained composed, carefully observing the surrounding situation.

"Hmph, a bunch of shameless scoundrels, daring to gang up on me alone!"

Gu Sheng exclaimed coldly, simultaneously wielding the Jade Maiden Sword and the Thirsty Blood Battle Axe to combat the pirates.

Lei Ying smirked with satisfaction:

"Let’s see how long you can endure."

Ignoring Lei Ying’s taunts, Gu Sheng focused solely on one thought—breaking through!

He kept deploying Carefree Ascension Step and Gale Nine Swords, battling the pirates fiercely.

Each sword aura strike left behind a trail of blood.

The pirates, though numerous and well-coordinated, gradually wore Gu Sheng down, making him feel the strain.
