Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164: Chapter 112: Reactions from All Sides! First-level Snake Breath!

Gu Sheng looked at the piles of items beside him, his heart slightly stirred with excitement.

Just the silver coins alone totaled over three thousand taels!

Silver notes and silver taels were stacked high—a sight Gu Sheng had never encountered before. His breathing quickened unconsciously. With these three thousand taels, it would be more than enough to achieve Perfect mastery in the Blood Refining Realm.

At this moment, if he could purchase two Blood Strengthening Pills, he’d be able to advance to Blood Refining Realm Perfect mastery in just a few days.

Unfortunately.

Blood Strengthening Pills were not so easily acquired. From Ding An, Gu Sheng learned that the last batch of pills refined by Pill Master Ge Qing was essentially sold out. Even if there were any leftovers, it wouldn’t be easy to obtain them.

"At least, there’s an ample supply of Strengthening Blood Powder!"

Gu Sheng was still pleased.

Without worrying about waste, doubling the dosage of Strengthening Blood Powder could also significantly enhance the efficiency of tempering his blood and flesh. Gu Sheng estimated that the time required for a breakthrough could be reduced by at least fifty percent!

That was reasonably good.

Beyond the silver taels.

There were also piles of weapons and containers, and he even found manuals on the bodies of two gang members—a fist skill and a palm skill, both foundational martial arts, less relevant to Gu Sheng’s current needs.

What surprised him the most was Han Lu’s Meteor Hammer.

The pair of large spiked hammers were clearly made of exceptional materials. During the clash with Gu Sheng’s giant axe moments ago, the giant axe had suffered slight damage, while the Meteor Hammer showed only shallow marks.

Reflecting on this, Gu Sheng felt a bit of a headache.

Although his giant axe was a quality piece, it had initially only cost him slightly over one hundred taels of silver. Now, after prolonged use, it already showed some wear and tear. Soon it would need repairs or even a complete reforging.

What a pity.

"Where has the blacksmith gone? If she were still around, I could easily have these hammers melted down and reforged into an even stronger giant axe..."

Gu Sheng sighed softly.

Silently, he decided he needed to find a new source for weapons.

But this was difficult. When he had wandered the black market back then, he’d only encountered that one blacksmith. Most other artisans were sponsored by various factions, and seeking them out would be tantamount to delivering himself into trouble.

"Killing Han Lu and framing Liu Yuanhu this time managed to offend both parties. The identity of the Butcher can no longer be used."

Gu Sheng mused darkly to himself, imagining the chaos this would cause once the news spread.

The Black Sand Gang would naturally suspect Liu Yuanhu as the culprit.

But Liu Yuanhu would have to swallow the humiliation, unable to protest, while he would undoubtedly launch a covert search for the Butcher.

Gu Sheng shook his head.

He left slowly.

His mind wasn’t overly concerned; no matter how they searched, they wouldn’t possibly find him. The perfected level of the Shapeshifting technique left no flaws, and Gu Sheng’s actions hadn’t provided any motive for suspicion.

Gu Sheng had deliberately waited until Han Lu visited multiple manors and fortresses before making his move, precisely to dispel any suspicion linking the Butcher to Gu’s Manor.
