Shocking the Nine Heavens With My Sword Chapter 1013 - 989: Three Black Cave–Level Treasure Artifact

The act of disemboweling and gutting, after all, is too cruel; Zhou Heng and the Black Donkey were just bantering about it. Moreover, there are so many people here, it’s hard to silence everyone!

"The most venomous is a woman’s heart!" The Black Donkey lanted and stomped its hooves, while keeping vigilant.

No one expected that this little temptress could actually summon such a powerful Treasure Artifact, immobilizing both it and Zhou Heng. Although it was just for a mont, for experts, a mont is enough to determine victory or defeat, and even life or death.

It seems that King Chengqin cares about his beloved daughter and bestowed upon her a Cot-level Treasure Artifact. After nurturing it for a long, long ti, it could unleash the power left by King Chengqin in the artifact, wielding quasi-Cot realm might in a short ti.

If it were to lose here, how heartbreaking it would be!

The Black Donkey stared at Liu Shishi, feeling an impulse to murder and rob.

"Donkey, I advise you to drop that idea. This woman is very formidable; you can’t beat her!" Zhou Heng, naturally understanding the Black Donkey well, imdiately advised.

If the Black Donkey really went to rob Liu Shishi, it might end up being robbed in return, and made into a large pot of donkey at soup. Zhou Heng thought rather wickedly, when the ti cos, should he eat it or not?

Liu Shishi smiled sweetly, with no sense of guilty conscience.

When the second Crystal Heart was dug out, Liu Shishi didn’t make another move, because Zhou Heng and the Black Donkey had prepared in advance—experts, naturally, don’t stumble in the sa ditch twice.

The two of them and the donkey stepped into the third hall, where the Treasure Artifacts were even fewer, only a re eighteen, but all were Cot-level!

The wealth of the Thundercloud Emperor back then was truly abundant!

It’s important to know that these are only burial items, put here with no intention of retrieving them!

However, every Treasure Artifact is under a Restriction; unlocking them isn’t a quick task. And it can be imagined that once the Restriction is lifted, fierce conflict would ensue to seize the Forbidden Artifacts.

The nine Black Cave Kings had previously stated that upon entering here... one’s life and death are for oneself to bear!

Of course, no one would be foolish enough to lay hands on the descendants of Jin Haochen, a Black Cave King, or n like Zhou Heng, also bred by a Black Cave King—even if soone wanted to, they’d try to find a place with no witnesses, leaving no survivors, to avoid reprisal from the Black Cave Kings.

Others don’t enjoy such privileges, in the chaos, blades and swords are blind, and even the peak Cot Emperors might fall.

Zhou Heng directly exited the third hall, looking towards the fourth hall, a hundred feet away.

Since the first three halls housed respectively Stellar, Milky Way, and Cot-level Treasure Artifacts, could there be Black Hole-level Treasure Artifacts in this fourth hall?

Although Zhou Heng already possesses the Black Sword and Fire Divine Furnace, who would ever dislike having more treasures!

"Zhou, do you think what I’m thinking?" The Black Donkey poked its head over and asked.

Zhou Heng shook his head, saying, "Even if we use the Teleportation Rune to get in ahead, we can’t unlock the Restrictions!"

"Pah, with Donkey Master here, who’s worried about Restrictions?" The Black Donkey scoffed disdainfully.

Zhou Heng imdiately reacted; if this nuisance of a donkey didn’t have the ans to unlock Restrictions, how could it have possibly looted fortunes from the Imperial Palace Treasury before? Even on Duyang Star, it was this Black Donkey that broke the Restriction on an old pervert’s lair.

Apart from being cheeky, this Black Donkey seems to be getting more formidable.

No wonder, having consud a Chaos-level Heaven-Earth Fruit!

The Black Donkey flicked its front hooves, and a green light imdiately spread out; the Teleportation Rune was already activated.

With a hum, they disappeared from the spot and reappeared inside the fourth hall!

"One, two, three, not one more, not one less!" The Black Donkey counted and said.

"You didn’t count yourself in yet!" Zhou Heng sighed and said.

"Ah—" The Black Donkey stuck its tongue out in disbelief, staring at Liu Shishi, "How did you get in too?"

"Hahahaha, luckily I was quick to grab soone’s arm!" Liu Shishi said proudly.

"Zhou, now that there’s no one else around, how about we silence her?" The Black Donkey revealed a fierce look and said.

"Co on, you hurry and start unlocking the Restrictions!" Zhou Heng waved it off.

The Black Donkey’s eyes imdiately glowed red. This empty fourth hall held only three stone tables, upon which lay three Treasure Artifacts: a sword, a Qiankun Ring, and a Green snake entangled Paper Weight.

"Are these Black Hole-level Treasure Artifacts?" Liu Shishi asked expectantly.

Such levelable Treasure Artifacts are very, very few; the entire Liu Imperial Family has only two. One is held by the Great Demon Dragon Emperor as the nation’s treasure, the Myriad Jun Jade Seal; the other is said to possess an even greater aura of slaughter, held by a forr emperor.

Though King Chengqin is of an auxiliary branch of the Imperial Clan, with high rank and authority, he only possesses a Cot-level Treasure Artifact, which he temporarily lent to Liu Shishi, known as the "Octahedral Exquisite Tower."

Seeing these three suspected Black Hole-level Treasure Artifacts, even Liu Shishi, who had been accustod to seeing treasures since a young age, couldn’t help but have her breath quicken, with anxiety reaching its peak.

Zhou Heng couldn’t help but smile. When it cos to composure, no one can match him. Ever since he was a child, his body has been used like a storage room by a chaos-level Treasure Artifact, and later he acquired a Black Cave-level disgraceful furnace.

"Hey hey hey, Zhou, are you insulting ? Why do I suddenly feel displeased!" The Fire Divine Furnace imdiately said.

Immortals have a "premonition," so they can sense when sothing targets them.

Zhou Heng decisively kept silent, lest this disgraceful furnace starts babbling again.

The Black Donkey was too busy to interact, fully focused on breaking the restriction.

This guy wasn’t just boasting; with its hooves dancing, green lights soared, and it muttered incantations. The glow enveloping the Treasure Artifact was steadily weakening.

"No rush, there’s plenty of ti!" Zhou Heng floated in the air, arms folded behind his head, looking perfectly at ease.

The Cot Realm experts were busy breaking the restriction in the third palace. Without their action, no one else could defeat the guardian before the fourth palace, giving Zhou Heng and his group a lot of ti.

Drawn by the Cot-level Treasure Artifact, those Cot Realm experts wouldn’t consider coming to the fourth palace for now. After all, who can guarantee there’s a Black Cave-level Treasure Artifact here until it’s entered?

The Black Donkey worked tirelessly. In rely half a day, it simultaneously lifted the restrictions on three Treasure Artifacts.

This speed was faster than all the Cot Emperors combined!

"Divide the loot!" The Black Donkey moved swiftly, imdiately grabbing the treasure sword. This disgraced donkey had always envied Zhou Heng’s Black Sword.

Zhou Heng took the Qiankun Ring, while Little Fire snatched the Paper Weight first, making Liu Shishi scream angrily as she chased Little Fire’s tail around the palace.

It’s undeniable that under the guidance of this scheming Donkey Lady, Little Fire’s ability to sneak and snatch had reached a masterful level. Even Liu Shishi couldn’t believe that this seemingly innocent puppy could be so quick!

The Black Donkey, having made the grab, then replaced with three inferior Magic Artifacts from the Mortal Realm, putting them back exactly where they were, and restoring the restriction. It said to Zhou Heng, "What do you think those fools will look like when they discover they’ve been duped?"

"I just know that if they ever realize it was you, you’ll definitely show up on the dinner table tonight, and in pieces no less!" Zhou Heng said as he fiddled with the Qiankun Ring, trying to figure out how to use it.

The Black Donkey shivered and hastened to make the recovery flawless.

Nearby, Liu Shishi sat on the ground panting heavily, unable to contend with Little Fire.

The little one was a Heaven-Earth Divine Beast, renowned for its thick skin and incredible stamina. Liu Shishi, exhausted and panting, was outpaced by Little Fire, who was still as lively as ever, wagging its tail energetically, thinking Liu Shishi was playing with it.

"Zhou Heng, I, the Commandery Princess, demand a Treasure Artifact!" Liu Shishi said, holding up a finger.

"Donkey, seeing how pitiful she is, give her sothing!"

The Black Donkey reluctantly tossed sothing to Liu Shishi, who caught it with excitent but beca furious upon realizing it was a Magic Artifact, a rare and inferior item even in the Immortal Realm!

How could Milky Way Emperor carry sothing from the Mortal Realm?

Liu Shishi looked at the Black Donkey with a peculiar gaze, feeling like this donkey collected anything like a garbage collector!

"Aren’t you touched? Oh, I’m bleeding from heartache!" The Black Donkey clutched its chest.

"Get lost!" Liu Shishi couldn’t bear it any longer and angrily crushed the Magic Artifact to pieces.

"Now, the issue is how do we get out of here?" The three Treasure Artifacts were restored, but they were still the biggest flaw, with a man, a donkey, and a dog.

"Fight our way into the next palace!"

Zhou Heng shook his head and said, "Do you think there will be Treasure Artifacts in the fifth palace?"

From Stellar Realm to Black Cave Realm, four levels of Treasure Artifacts have appeared. If there were higher-level Treasure Artifacts, they could only be chaos-level ones! But Thundercloud Emperor was rely a Black Cave Sovereign, so how could he obtain chaos-level Treasure Artifacts?

Zhou Heng and the Black Donkey knew about the Chaos Realm level, but Liu Shishi hadn’t even heard of it, so naturally, she wouldn’t consider the presence of Treasure Artifacts in the fifth palace.

"Besides Treasure Artifacts, there should be Pills and Cultivation Techniques!"

"Referencing the placent of Treasure Artifacts, the remaining eight palaces should consist of four with Cultivation Techniques and four with Pills, corresponding from Stellar to Black Cave levels!"

"Then, whether the next palace contains Pills or Cultivation Techniques, it holds little value!"

"Only three palaces are truly valuable: the fourth, eighth, and twelfth!"

Liu Shishi clapped her hands and said, "Then quickly let this slly donkey teleport us to the eighth palace!"

"Nonsense, do you think you can just teleport whenever you want?" Zhou Heng sighed.

Liu Shishi huffed, her gaze fixed on Little Fire, who was cheerfully gnawing at the Paper Weight, saliva covering it entirely, making this Commandery Princess heartache seeing a Black Cave-level Treasure Artifact mistreated like this.

"Find a place to hide and let the outsiders fight their way in!" (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian) to vote for recomndation and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. For mobile users, please go to m.qidian to read.)
