Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword-Chapter 669 - 646 Black Donkey Breakthrough (2/3)
Chapter 669: Chapter 646 Black Donkey Breakthrough (2/3)
Zhou Heng had great confidence that he could sweep away all martial artists of the same level!
He too flew out, thrusting his left fist forward, turning it into a brilliant golden light while his right hand poised with the Black Sword, ready to strike. Once he punched Ma Qianying to the ground, he would follow through with a sword strike to finish the battle.
A purple lightning ball soon collided with the golden light, exploding into a dazzling burst of brightness!
Boom!
Zhou Heng’s fist, unimpeded, pierced through the purple lightning, the divine radiance of the gold unstoppable!
Damn!
He cursed inwardly, but the punch was already thrown with all his might and could not be taken back!
With a pop, Ma Qianying’s head was instantly blown apart, a sweep of golden light also instantly crushed the deities attacked by the terrifying destructive power of the Minor Runes!
Both spirit and form were destroyed!
What a waste! What a waste!
Zhou Heng sheathed his sword, his face showing extreme displeasure. This was a Sunshine Emperor, and if he could refine the opponent’s life essence qi, it would definitely have greatly enhanced his accumulation of spiritual power.
To everyone’s shock, seeing his disappointed expression made them puzzled. Why did this young man look as if he owed someone a debt after winning the battle? What kind of expression was that?
The problematic youth from the Ma Family, a Moonlight Emperor, had his mouth gaping like a goldfish, gasping heavily before he suddenly turned and ran. He was scared and wanted to leave this continent, daring no longer to think about Dragon Transformation Nine Slashes!
—Where was the chance to transform into a dragon when it was their own lives being cut short!
Zhou Heng scoffed lightly, reached out his left hand, and grabbed; with a bang, the young Moonlight Emperor from the Ma Family instantly turned into a mist of blood, obliterated!
He had already advanced to Sunshine King, and the Moonlight Emperor could hardly provide any more accumulation of spiritual power, so he didn’t bother using the Black Sword to cut down such a minor figure anymore.
His might was already established, and no one, out of jealousy, came over to snatch the Silver Dragon Fish attracted by Zhou Heng anymore. However, as the number of Silver Dragon Fish dwindled, these fish finally became determined and were no longer attracted by the dragon blood.
No more Silver Dragon Fish!
Zhou Heng set off on the road with the Black Donkey and Bing Xiulan, continuing their progress. They had spent roughly twenty days on the Silver Dragon Fish while others in different directions probably had moved ahead of them by now.
But differences in other places might have also held up others, perhaps with Black Dragon Fish or Blue Dragon Fish? Since Silver Dragon Fish existed here, it indicated there was still life in this continent, meaning anything could be bred! Moreover, some species have incredible vitality, capable of surviving even in the cold cosmos. It wasn’t strange to see life appear on a shattered continent!
The key was to see how much this continent was affected in the great destruction of the Immortal Realm. The piece that crashed into Xuanqian Star suffered heavily, with all living beings extinct! But this section seemed better off; apart from the planet being broken, it didn’t seem to have further damage.
The two and the donkey continued on, but only three days later, Black Donkey seized the opportunity to break through to Sunshine King and immediately started a seclusion to make the breakthrough, leaving Zhou Heng no choice but to stop and wait for this cheeky donkey to complete its breakthrough.
Bing Xiulan couldn’t sit still and, after reluctantly staying for a day, she ran out wildly, but she came back half a day later with news.
"There’s a mountain range full of flames to the northwest, covered with many fire attribute Spirit Grass. Some people also said they saw a mature Fire Fox Peach, but that Fire Fox Peach could already sprout legs and escape. The surrounding flames are very scorching, making it impossible to catch up!"
"Many experts have already rushed over there!"
The young girl chattered on, speaking very quickly, but her clear voice made it a pleasant experience to listen to.
"A volcano?" The Fire Divine Furnace immediately called out from within Zhou Heng’s dantian, "Kid, hurry over and check it out, maybe there’s some Exotic Fire of heaven and earth hidden in the volcano! This seat wants it! Wants it!"
It wailed, as if it was in heat.
Zhou Heng nodded. If he could obtain another Exotic Fire, the Fire Divine Furnace would gain another occasion to take action. Although Bing Xiulan hadn’t said what a Fire Fox Peach was, it should just be an ordinary item.
"What level of treasure is a Fire Fox Peach?" he asked.
"Even a Creation Emperor would be tempted!" said Bing Xiulan emphatically, "Eating one Fire Fox Peach could grant you about ten thousand additional years of life, but you can only eat one; eating more serves no purpose! Moreover, since the Fire Fox Peach absorbs Earth Fire to grow, its flesh contains flame divine skills. Eating several could even lead to mastering a powerful Fire Series Immortal Technique!"
"It can’t enhance cultivation level?" Zhou Heng was greatly disappointed.
"Almost brother-in-law, is that all you aspire to?" Bing Xiulan looked at him disdainfully, "Accumulating spiritual power is the simplest thing. Advancing in levels is the real challenge. You’re actually so shortsighted to ask if Fire Fox Peach can enhance cultivation level, tsk, you really are a bumpkin!"
"Fine, fine, Fire Fox Peach can enhance cultivation level, are you happy now?" she shrugged her shoulders in a manner that suggested she was out of options with Zhou Heng.
He was actually being despised by an unruly, lazy girl who knew nothing!
Zhou Heng sighed, but since Fire Fox Peach had so many benefits, naturally, he had to give it a shot!
Besides, even if there wasn’t a Fire Fox Peach, for the potential Exotic Fire, he’d still go take a look.
"Let’s go!" Bing Xiulan was all fire and spunk.
"And this damn donkey!" Zhou Heng pointed at the Black Donkey, still in secluded cultivation. The donkey sat cross-legged, resembling a man or a dog, with a small black donkey-shaped deity floating above its head, also sitting cross-legged, exuding a bit of an Immortal’s aura.
"Ignore it. With its dumb look, it won’t break through for decades!" Bing Xiulan exaggeratedly declared.
Zhou Heng glared at her and retorted, "And how much better can you be?"
Bing Xiulan felt a huge blow and started fiddling with her fingers, meekly saying, "I’ve just been a bit lazy, that’s all! Hey, wait a minute!" She raised her head, her voice suddenly rising, "You’re not my sister, why do you get to boss me around?"
Zhou Heng burst into laughter and waved his hand, "Just wait two more days. This donkey is reaching a crucial moment!"
He had just broken through to the Sunshine King, so he was extremely sensitive to the aura of this stage and knew that the Black Donkey was on the verge of a breakthrough.
"You better stay in seclusion too!" Zhou Heng forcibly seated Bing Xiulan on the ground, making this bizarre girl cultivate.
"Darn it! This is outrageous! I don’t want you as my brother-in-law anymore!" Bing Xiulan screamed, detesting cultivation as if it were killing her.
Zhou Heng set up a restriction so Bing Xiulan couldn’t leave. Bored out of her mind, the only thing she could do was cultivate to pass the time, otherwise she would truly die of boredom. Zhou Heng also sat down and continued studying the Blood River Heavenly Scripture.
During his breakthrough to the Sunshine King, the two Minor Runes he mastered had made significant progress and gained tremendous power. Even with his increased cultivation level, he couldn’t try anymore to increase the number of Broken Runes because the potency achieved was already at his limit.
All he could do was continue to extract the third, fourth, and fifth streams of Broken Runes.
And he did just that.
Even with considerable experience, it took Zhou Heng several days to extract the third Minor Rune. Before the Black Donkey had broken through, he had just started trying to combine them.
Because combining Runes was a no-brainer, he took only half a day to advance the combination of the third Minor Rune to eighty-five streams. He couldn’t advance any further; moving forward would mean blowing himself up first.
It seemed he had quite the advantage when he broke through his realm because the first attack Minor Rune’s combination was ninety-two streams.
Zhou Heng activated the rune. The third Minor Rune was also offensive, and in his heart, he sensed that if first and third Minor Runes were fully combined and then combined further... strictly speaking, it should resonate and produce even greater destructive power.
A hundred Minor Runes resonating in a certain way to form a complete Blood River Heavenly Scripture!
This was the secret of the Heavenly Scripture!
Zhou Heng couldn’t help but smile wryly. While combining Minor Runes lacked technical content, it required extremely high physical demands to fully combine even a few hundred Broken Runes—it might require him to reach the Creation Realm!
He had plenty of time!
The second offensive Minor Rune followed the lineage of the first; it was much weaker in power due to fewer combinations, and currently, the two Runes couldn’t resonate and be used at the same time. Therefore, learning this second Rune was pointless for his current battle power.
But one day, when he could combine all the Broken Runes, the resonance of a hundred Minor Runes would tremendously increase his battle power in an instant!
He was truly looking forward to that day!
Bang!
The Black Donkey suddenly shot up into the sky, then, pulled down by terrifying gravity, it fell back down in a bizarre posture, hitting the ground face first. But the excited donkey immediately jumped up, craning its neck and shouting, "I have broken through! Broken through! Broken! Through!"
There was no echo around, but the showy donkey added echo effects for itself.
Buzz, behind the Black Donkey, a First Wheel Sunshine appeared, but quickly a second small light formed, soon becoming the Second Wheel Sunshine, followed by the third small light and the Third Wheel Sunshine.
Four Wheels! Five Wheels!
Hisss!
This damn donkey was defying the heavens; on breaking through to the Sunshine King, it instantly reached Five Wheels Sunshine!
This equated to having Fifteen Wheels Moon at the Moonlight Emperor stage, easily setting a new record for the highest Moon Wheel count in the history of the Immortal Realm—of course, Zhou Heng was an exception; he was an even bigger freak.
After so many years, the power of the Heaven-Earth Fruit hadn’t diminished; instead, it seemed like it had just been activated! freewebnoveℓ.com
"Wahahaha, I truly am the Auspicious Omens of Heaven and Earth!" The Black Donkey was incredibly proud, head high and butt stuck out, with Five Wheels Sunshine floating behind it, refusing to disappear but kept turning its head to look and grin each time, embarrassingly showing off.
"Stop being so disgusting!" Zhou Heng kicked the face of the Black Donkey, unable to stand its narcissism anymore.
"Let’s go, let’s go rob some Fire Dragon Peaches!" After enough showing off, the Black Donkey finally put away the Sunshine and returned to its usual self, showing absolute greed for treasures.
"You could hear us talking while you were in seclusion?" Zhou Heng’s face twitched.
"I didn’t hear anything else, just Fire Dragon Peaches!"
"...It’s Fire Fox Peach!" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at starting point (qidian.com) for recommendations, monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please visit m.qidian.com to continue reading.)
