Longevity Martial Arts: Grinding Experience in the Chaotic World novel Chapter 52

Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Strongly Recommended (Seeking Follow-up Reads on Tuesday)

A white porcelain bottle was opened, releasing a peculiar fragrance. Inside the bottle lay four blood-patterned pills, the size of longan fruit, resting quietly.

The trip to Canghe County had ostensibly been for procurement, but secretly it was for refining pills.

Although there had been some twists and turns, the ultimate goal was finally achieved.

With these Blood Strengthening Pills, the strength of several experts in Gu’s Manor would advance further, leaving behind a solid foundation. If only Gu Dajiang hadn’t been injured, it would have been perfect.

A trace of fervor lit up in Gu Jingang’s eyes.

Blood Strengthening Pills.

As the name suggests, these pills strengthened vitality and blood, proving highly beneficial for Martial Artists in the Blood Refining Realm.

If Gu Jingang consumed one pill, there was a high likelihood he could break through to the Small Success stage of the Blood Refining Realm, thus catching up with Gu Changming’s progress.

At that point, coupled with his innate immense strength and iron fists, his combat power could rival or even surpass Gu Changming, making him the strongest expert in Gu’s Manor!

"Four Blood Strengthening Pills. According to the original arrangement, the three of us would each get one. Now that my left arm is crippled and my path nearly cut off, I’ll leave my share to Xiao Jiang in the future."

Gu Dajiang glanced at the Blood Strengthening Pills with a complex expression.

Gu Jingang immediately protested:

"Dajiang, why give up on yourself? It’s just a crippled left arm! Someday, if we find a miraculous medicine, there’s still a chance for you to reclaim your peak power!"

Gu Dajiang waved his hand and smiled:

"Rather than clinging to such an elusive hope, it’s better to face reality."

"My aptitude was already inferior to you two. Even if I took the Blood Strengthening Pill, I couldn’t break through to the Small Success stage of the Blood Refining Realm. Instead, it’s better to leave it to Xiao Jiang, so he can strive for a higher horizon."

He comforted his two silent friends in turn. On the way back to the manor, he had already made up his mind.

"As for me, I can still contribute to Gu’s Manor in other ways. You don’t have to feel this way. Allocating the Blood Strengthening Pills this way is the best arrangement. As for the last pill, it can be kept as a reserve for the Gu family."

Gu Changming nodded silently.

Gu Jingang growled with frustration:

"The day I find that idiot Wang Chong, I swear I’ll crush his skull!"

"Alright, let’s talk about other matters. Changming, what have you found out about Gu Sheng?"

Gu Dajiang turned to look at Gu Changming.

Earlier, when they had returned to the manor, he had mentioned to Gu Changming about Gu Sheng’s performance during the skirmish. Gu Sheng had saved Gu Xiaojiang, and Gu Dajiang felt deeply grateful and wanted to repay him.

A look of surprise flashed across Gu Jingang’s face.

Gu Changming smiled and explained:

"Dajiang wants this lad to be treated like the young members of the main family, allowed to train in martial arts early, and potentially given the same resources as the main family youth. As the instructor, what do you think?"

Gu Jingang understood.

He rubbed his chin thoughtfully, recalling the hurried encounter during the wolf attack that night, and the composed young boy leaning by the cart. He nodded in agreement:

"I didn’t interact much with him, but this boy is brave and sharp. Since Dajiang recommends him, I have no objections."

Gu Changming shook his head with a wry smile and spoke slowly:

"Before you went to Bull Mountain to kill bandits, I had someone investigate in the manor. Those close to him, like Gu Erniu and Gu He, all spoke highly of Gu Sheng."

"The wolf attack you witnessed might have been him risking his life to kill the wolves and save Gu Erniu’s wife and children."

"The boy’s ancestors have all been tenant farmers of Gu’s Manor, clean of background. In the previous skirmish, he also showcased extraordinary archery skills. As far as I know, he’s trained in archery for no more than half a year. Such talent in archery is simply astounding!"

"If he one day becomes a Martial Artist, even if he doesn’t ascend to the Blood Refining Realm, he’ll undoubtedly be a powerful warrior, surpassing most in the Refining Skin Realm!"

Gu Changming took a sip of tea.

"In summary, Gu Sheng’s lineage is pure, his character exemplary, and he has a deep sense of gratitude. His talent in archery is extraordinary. Although we don’t yet know his aptitude for martial arts, I think it’s worth giving him a chance."

"Starting his martial arts training early is simple; let him start in a few days and join the main family youth in learning Iron Stone Fist under your guidance."

"However, securing the same resources as the main family youth won’t be easy. It will require the three of us to petition the elders together."

At this point,

Gu Changming sighed helplessly.
