Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Most Inferior Black Donkey

  The sound was hoarse and shrill, like an old duck's strange cry. This black shadow leapt up four or five meters high, then came crashing down with a loud thud, falling heavily to the ground.

  Zhou Heng and Han Yulian both fixed their eyes on the black shadow, with expressions of utmost astonishment on their faces.

  "Two little brats who haven't even grown their hair evenly, dare to stare at me so brazenly? You're looking for death!" The black shadow climbed up and stretched its limbs, "First let me stretch my muscles, it's been hundreds of years since I last moved!"

  Zhou Heng and the other person were like statues, numbly staring at the black shadow in front of them.

  They had seen even the living dead, so it's reasonable to say that nothing in the world should be able to scare them. But this black shadow in front of them... damn it, it wasn't a person, but a donkey, an all-black donkey without a single strand of miscellaneous hair.

  Monsters can cultivate and have a certain level of spiritual intelligence, but it's never been heard that they can speak!

  Beasts are just beasts after all!

  The black donkey in front of him suddenly spoke up, and with a very old-fashioned tone.

  "What's wrong, why are you looking like you've seen a ghost? Have I become even more handsome after sleeping for thousands or tens of thousands of years?" The black donkey struck a pose with an air of elegance, "Hey, you two, aren't you going to pay homage and worship me? I'll reluctantly accept you as my mounts!"

  Zhou Heng's face turned black, and he was told by a donkey that it wanted him as its rider. Could this make someone feel comfortable?

  "You stinky little brat, what are you staring at? With your weak strength, I can crush a million of you with just one finger. Being taken in by me as a mount is the luck of your past life!" The big black donkey said carelessly, plopping its butt onto the ground, and propping up one front leg on its mouth, looking very proud.

  Unexpectedly met a donkey who can play the piano!

  Zhou Heng suddenly drew out his long sword with a clang, danced a sword flower, and said: "I'm hungry, just in time to eat a donkey meat meal to supplement it!"

  Judging from the aura emanating from this donkey, it seems to be around the 10th layer of Body Refining, not much stronger than Han Yulian. And he has now reached the 9th layer of Body Refining as well, although there is a difference of one major boundary, the Ling Tian Nine Forms can make up for it.

  "You little brat, who hasn't even grown a decent beard yet, dares to eat my donkey? I'll spit in your face!" The black donkey suddenly became furious, jumped up and kicked its front hoof at Zhou Heng.

  Wow!

  A strong gust of wind howled, and this kick was incredibly fast.

  Zhou Heng's body shape shifted and dodged, his cloud-step technique unfolding as he narrowly avoided the attack. His long sword counterattacked, slashing towards the black donkey's large mouth - that foul mouth.

  "Look at my Three Kicks of the Donkey Style!" The black donkey's two hind legs stood upright and kicked out, brushing brushing brushing, in an instant it was even faster than a demon beast of the same rank, already arriving behind Zhou Heng's head, just one hoof smashed over.

  Zhou Heng's foot spun around and narrowly dodged it, a strong sense of shock surging up in his heart.

  After mastering the Lingtian Nine Forms, he seemed to grasp the overall trend of the world's martial arts, and could judge the opponent's next attack route from a slight movement, even if it was an old-fashioned Blood Refining Realm master like Zhou Xuanming.

  But the black donkey's attack was completely beyond this range, as if it were flying in the air and hanging on a horn, making it impossible for him to make a judgment, so he could only rely on Fei Yun Bu to adapt randomly.

  This was his first time losing control of the battle situation.

  "Look at my mighty kick!" The black donkey brayed loudly, "You stinky little brat, you're not even a match for me. Hurry up and kneel down to admit defeat, or else I'll kick your butt with one foot!"

  "You don't stand a single chance in front of me!"

  "I think you're somewhat qualified, I'll reluctantly accept you as my apprentice!"

  "White-faced apprentice, don't you hurry up and kneel down before me, shouting 'Benefactor'!"

  This black donkey is completely a **, making Zhou Heng and Han Yulian wonder if someone has put on a donkey skin to impersonate it. The initial shock was completely offset by the donkey's rascal, listening to its mouthful of profanity, only regretting not being able to completely shut its mouth.

  "Smelly little boy, quickly pay homage to me as your master, and I'll teach you the unparalleled divine art!" This black donkey folded its two front legs back onto its body, while standing upright on its hind legs, its gait was truly quite wondrous, repeatedly causing Zhou Heng's long sword to yield.

  Zhou Heng's eyes flashed, his body suddenly paused, and a terrifying sword intent unfolded as he began to execute the first move of Ling Tian.

  "What the... what kind of swordsmanship is this? It actually made me feel a bit intimidated?" The black donkey put down its front legs, "I'm not playing with you anymore!"

  It kicked its four hooves and ran, with a speed that was out of the ordinary, disappearing instantly without a trace.

  Zhou Heng's eyes widened in shock, although he was skilled in body techniques, the Flying Cloud Step only had form but not the corresponding movement technique, his speed was not much faster than that of an ordinary 9th-level Body Refining martial artist, and could only watch as the black donkey suddenly ran away without a trace.

  "This place... is too strange!" Han Yulian said with a trembling voice, the series of events that had occurred earlier had completely exceeded her limits.

  Indeed strange!

  The resurrected corpse, the talking donkey!

  Zhou Heng walked to the original location of the stone monument, now only a huge pit was left. He leaned over and looked down, but it was pitch black and nothing could be seen! He picked up a rock and threw it down, but there was no echo for a long time, unfathomable!

  How did that black donkey climb out?

  Boom!

  A powerful and heart-pounding breath emerged from the hole in the ground, Zhou Heng involuntarily retreated continuously, backing out dozens of meters before stopping.

  "It seems we've stirred up trouble!" Zhou Heng scratched his head, now he was somewhat certain that the original stone monument was suppressing this underground cave.

  "It's you, nothing to do with me!" Han Yulian's mood was stirred up by Hei Lu a bit, and she lost some of her fear, and actually started joking with Zhou Heng.

  This is indeed his own doing.

  Zhou Heng walked up to the edge of the stone tablet, trying to gauge its weight. As soon as he touched it, his hand involuntarily sank down, and with great difficulty, he managed to lift it an inch off the ground.

  "My current strength is almost reaching 10,000 jin, and this stone stele's weight is even more than that!" Zhou Heng thought to himself, but he still dragged the stone stele towards the pit, getting drenched in sweat before finally arriving at the edge of the pit.

  Buzz!

  The crimson stone monument shook and suddenly stood upright on its own, swooping down towards the location of the earth cave.

  Zhou Heng hastily unfolded the Flying Cloud Step, his body flashing rapidly as he dodged to the side. With a whoosh, the stone tablet scraped past the edge of his body, almost hitting him!

  This stone monument weighs at least ten thousand catties, and with the speed from just now, if he were to crash into it, his entire body's bones would shatter instantly!

  It wasn't until then that he felt a wave of fear and cold sweat began to flow.

  "What is this place?" Han Yulian stammered.

  Everything is shrouded in mystery! If only that donkey could be asked, perhaps the answer would be obtained, but unfortunately, this donkey ran too fast!

  The Pingtian Mountains are not the only place with such strange phenomena, and there is also the bottom of the Valley of Cold Springs where a human shadow is reflected, equally strange.

  This place seems to seal something terrible, and he is still far from having the power to figure it out. It's better not to touch it. Hopefully, it's not that donkey, Zhou Heng hoped in his heart, otherwise, he would be in big trouble.

  The two of them walked back and forth, after passing through the nine-turns eighteen-bends mountain pass, that hazy piece reappeared in front of them, and they could still faintly hear strange cries.

  "Damn your family's donkey to death!"

  "Is there anyone who can take your donkey out for a walk?"

  "Donkey old man still wants to capture the holy maiden of Dongling Xianchi as a maidservant, can't die like this!"

  The sound of wailing and howling grew louder, and soon a black shadow emerged from the fog - wasn't that the black donkey with its mouth full of nonsense?

  Seeing Zhou Heng and the others, this black donkey suddenly let out a loud bray and rushed towards them, shouting: "So you're still alive! I thought I was going to die, you damn donkey!"

  The black donkey suddenly made a sharp turn and kicked its two hind legs towards Zhou Heng.

  "I knew you were up to no good!" Zhou Heng had been prepared, and with a swift movement of his Flying Cloud Step, he dodged the donkey's kick and swung his sword in a flash, stabbing towards the donkey's buttocks.

  "You little brat, want to make my donkey's butt bloom?!" The black donkey suddenly stood up straight and let the sword pass by, then swung its big black butt back, "You dare to hit my donkey?! I'll reward you with a slap in the face of gold!"

  Facing this earthy black donkey, Zhou Heng had a feeling of vomiting blood, completely diluting the shock of seeing a donkey speak.

  Ling Tian's First Move!

  "Here we go again!" The black donkey was quick-witted and immediately dropped its front hooves to the ground, galloping out over 20 meters in an instant, leaving Zhou Heng's sword intent range. "Fortunately, your family's old donkey is knowledgeable and experienced, otherwise it would have been pierced by a stinky little kid, losing all of its lifelong honor!"

  "You stinky little boy, come and catch your donkey grandfather!" The donkey stood up on its hind legs again, twisting its buttocks and slapping with its front hooves, it was simply cheap to the point of being indescribable.

  Zhou Heng sheathed his sword and stood up, a smile floating on his face. "I can walk out!"

  The black donkey suddenly froze like ice, its movements paused for a moment, but in the next instant, it rushed to Zhou Heng's side and said: "Youngster, take me out. I'm in a good mood, who knows, I might just teach you a few moves on a whim, guaranteeing you'll become the greatest master under heaven!"

  Zhou Heng burst out laughing, but shook his head and said: "Tell me your background, I'll consider it!"

  "What, you dare to threaten me?" The black donkey suddenly became furious, its front hooves pushing off the ground, and with a swift motion, it kicked both of its hind legs towards Zhou Heng.

  "Dead black donkey, really despicable!" Zhou Heng hastily dodged to one side, almost getting kicked in the chest. He counterattacked with his sword, forcing the black donkey to retreat.

  "Wrong! I'm kindly instructing you!" The black donkey's face was extremely thick-skinned as it spoke indifferently.

  Facing this black donkey who took shame as glory, Zhou Heng was completely speechless, and only rolled the sword light to dance more fiercely.

  "Halt! Halt!" The black donkey cried out loudly, "I'm too busy to bother with you!"

  Zhou Heng also knew that he couldn't do anything about this quick-witted donkey, so he immediately stopped his attack. Unexpectedly, this black donkey was extremely sinister and took advantage of the moment to kick again with one hoof.

  "You stupid donkey!"
