Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Chapter 170: Chapter 170: Three Rules of Conduct!

”Finally out,” Ling Feng followed the instructions of the gray-robed elder and sure enough, he saw a groove on the ground; this must be the Array for leaving the Mist Ghost Forest.

With a flash of Fire Light, Zi Feng emerged from Ling Feng’s Dantian and hopped onto Ling Feng’s shoulder in two or three leaps, still feeling terrified, ”My heavens, that guy just now was really scary!”

Ling Feng offered a faint smile and expressed his gratitude, ”Zi Feng, thank you for giving me a hand at that critical moment.”

Ling Feng was very clear in his heart that the Heart Refining Lock was truly overbearing. He managed to hold on largely because of his firm willpower, but without Zi Feng’s life-sharing, he couldn’t have lasted until the end.

”Hey, who told you to be my master,” Zi Feng said with a helpless face and shrugged, ”Being stuck with a master like you, I have no choice but to work a little harder.”

Ling Feng’s mouth twitched a few times. Zi Feng really took a mile when given an inch, just like that Despicable Donkey outside—they were really each one of a kind!

Thinking of that Despicable Donkey, Ling Feng then remembered ”Lord Divine Donkey” was still waiting for him.

”That Despicable Donkey...”

Ling Feng curled his lips, unsure of what to decide—should he take the black donkey out with him or continue to leave it here?

After hesitating for a long time, Ling Feng decided to go out and see the black donkey first; after all, it couldn’t harm him, and even if it was a Sixth level Demon Beast, there was nothing to fear.

Once he had made up his mind, Ling Feng retraced his path, left the underwater cave, and when he reached the entrance, he discovered that the black donkey was gone.

”It seems that black donkey thought I was dead.”

With a light smile, Ling Feng took the Water-Repelling Pearl and kept rising. Because his True Qi was sealed, it was hard to control his ascent.

After struggling for about half an hour, Ling Feng finally left the lake.

As soon as he broke the surface, he heard a distant roar like a wild buffalo, followed by a sweeping gust of wind.

Without guessing, he knew it was the black donkey running over in a fury.

The black donkey seemed to have forgotten it was an animal, its hind legs furiously sprinting on the ground, and in the blink of an eye, it was standing in front of Ling Feng.

”Oh my god, you... you actually made it out?” the black donkey said incredulously as it looked at Ling Feng, ”This Divine Beast thought you had already kicked the bucket!”

”Luckily I have a strong life, alive and out,” Ling Feng shook his head with a bittersweet smile, recalling the pain of the Heart Refining Lock being implanted and feeling a lingering fear.

”Did that old man give you the Jade Token? Hurry, hurry, take this Divine Beast out!” The black donkey was very excited, spat out the blade of foxtail grass it was chewing in its mouth violently, and looked rather gangsterish.

”Going out is fine, but we need to set some ground rules first,” Ling Feng held up three fingers and said lightly.

”Boy, you dare to bargain with this Divine Beast?” That black donkey was indeed incorrigibly stubborn, it raised a hoof with a cold laugh, ”Anyway, the token is on you; this Divine Beast will just snatch it directly.”

After saying that, the black donkey barked chaotically several times and aimed a vicious kick at Ling Feng’s cheek.

Ling Feng frowned and immediately unlocked the first Mixed Element Lock; with his True Qi surging, his reaction speed increased significantly.

Dodging the black donkey’s hoof, he burst into the Carefree Sword Step, retreating dozens of feet away and said coldly, ”Black donkey, watch closely, I am now the successor of Emperor Sky White, and your master as well, do you dare to attack me?”

When the black donkey saw Ling Feng’s sudden surge of True Qi, its eyelids twitched violently, ”This... this is the Qi Refining Mixed Element Lock of that old man!”

”Hmph, good that you have Eye Power!” Ling Feng stood with his hands behind him, staring coldly at the black donkey.

Facing a Sixth level Demon Beast, Ling Feng felt somewhat apprehensive. If the black donkey had been serious just now, he might’ve had his face all battered at this moment.

”You cunning kid, this Divine Beast fell for that stinky old man’s trick; I can’t lay hands on someone marked with the Mixed Element Lock. But you also promised to take this Divine Beast out, if you break your word, don’t blame this Divine Beast for dying together with you!”

The black donkey seemed somewhat wary of Ling Feng’s Mixed Element Lock, hesitated for a moment, and could only stand at a distance, threatening Ling Feng fiercely.

”Relax, if I wanted to go back on my word, I wouldn’t have come out,” Ling Feng said with a faint smile. ”Although you had no good intentions by bringing me into the underwater cave, I still benefited from it in the end. It’s not impossible for me to take you out.”

”Heh heh, you kid have some conscience,” the black donkey replied, revealing a cheeky grin upon hearing Ling Feng’s willingness to take it back, ”Come on, good brother, quickly take your Brother Donkey out.”

”...”

A dark cloud passed over Ling Feng’s forehead. This donkey’s ability to change faces was indeed faster than flipping through a book; no wonder even a senior expert like Emperor Sky White couldn’t help but curse it as a ”Despicable Donkey.”

This donkey was extraordinarily despicable!

”I can take you out, but I’ve just implanted the Mixed Element Lock and would like to adapt to it a bit and recover some strength before we leave. You have been waiting for so long; you don’t mind waiting a few more days, do you?”

Upon hearing he had to wait a few more days, the black donkey’s face showed a trace of irritation, but it still nodded, ”That’s no problem.”

”And after you go out, you are not to eat humans, and you must not cause trouble!”

”Dammit, kid, you certainly have the guts, trying to meddle in this Divine Beast’s business!” The black donkey immediately lost its temper, raising its black hooves, ready to go berserk.

”You can ignore me, but I can also choose not to take you out,” Ling Feng said with a cold sneer.

”You little brat!” The black donkey fumed, its ears flailing wildly, and after a long time, it started yelling out with its tongue sticking out, ”Don’t push this donkey too far! Woof!”

”You’re not a dog, why are you barking like one!”

Ling Feng squinted his eyes and suddenly felt this black donkey was quite amusing, just a bit too despicable.

”I, this Divine Beast, will do as I please!” the black donkey declared arrogantly. ”Hmph, if I don’t eat humans, then I don’t. Human flesh is sour and not tasty at all!”

Saying this, the black donkey lay down on the spot, propped up one leg, carelessly plucked a blade of grass, and put it in its mouth. ”Kid, this Divine Beast has agreed to your demands. If you dare sneak away behind my back, hmph, I will bite your head off in one go!”

”There’s a third condition, from now on, I am your master, and you may not defy my will!” Ling Feng crossed his arms over his chest and hummed lightly, ”If you don’t agree to this condition, we can forget the whole deal!”

”Damn kid, you’re ruthless!” The black donkey bared its big mouth, showing its large teeth, and spat in Ling Feng’s direction, ”Someday I’ll make you into a human meat pastry!”

”Before that, I’ll turn you into a donkey meat pastry.”

Ling Feng hummed softly, ignoring the black donkey, and drew his Red Fire Golden Wind Sword, closing the Mixed Element Lock again to begin refining his swordsmanship.

Ling Feng’s goal was to successfully perform the Heaven Burning technique while the Mixed Element Lock was closed.

However, achieving this was no easy task, so Ling Feng first practiced low-level Sword Skills such as the Shattering Star Sword Technique and the Falling Leaves Sword Technique, getting used to his current state before slowly cultivating more profound techniques.

On the first day, Ling Feng’s sword swings were still very stiff; after all, his True Qi was compressed, and it felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back, making it hard to move, let alone execute swordsmanship and movement techniques.

By the second day, Ling Feng began to execute the Shattering Star Sword Technique completely, so he quickly started practicing the Blood Lotus Sword Song and the Moving Flower and Burying Jade Sword.

Once he switched to the Xuan Rank Sword Technique, Ling Feng immediately felt the pressure increase.

On the third day, the fourth day, after persisting for another three days, Ling Feng finally managed to execute the Blood Lotus Sword Song and the Moving Flower and Burying Jade Sword in their entirety, restoring his strength to eighty percent of what it was before the Mixed Element Lock was implanted.

”Not bad, I’m gradually getting used to the pressure of the Mixed Element Lock. Now I can start practicing Heaven Burning,” Ling Feng took a deep breath, replaced the Red Fire Golden Wind Sword, and held the Ten Directions Annihilation in his hands—a feeling of unification of mind and blade spontaneously emerged.

Through the past few days of hard training, Ling Feng found that he seemed to have grasped something, and his understanding of the Sword Dao had seemingly surpassed his previous knowledge.

It had to be said that although it was very difficult and strenuous under the suppression of the Mixed Element Lock, the effect of honing his swordsmanship was also quite significant.
