Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

"I remembered."

Looking at the donkey demon's heart-breaking performance, Fang Xu spoke with a smile.

"real!?"

The donkey demon rushed to Fang Xu, hugged his thigh and said, "Master, do you really remember?"

Fang Xu nodded and pulled him up.

"You...I will call you Xiao Hei from now on."

"Thank you Master for the name!"

The donkey demon said excitedly.

"Okay, Xiao Hei, let me ask you something."

Pulling the donkey demon up, Fang Xu asked in confusion: "I remember correctly. I only gave you some pills to eat at the beginning. How did you cultivate from an ordinary animal to a demon in the past hundred years?"

The donkey demon Xiao Hei raised his head proudly: "Of course I have good talent!"

Bang!
Fang Xu gave him a slap on the face: "Be serious!"

Xiao Hei covered his head in pain and said seriously: "After the master rewarded me with a large amount of elixirs, my body underwent some changes and gradually became stronger."

"Later, I used my physical strength to kill some wolf demons that wanted to eat me in the desert. I devoured their flesh and blood and became stronger."

"About 80 years ago, I was wandering in the desert when I accidentally discovered a relic."

"I found many valuable treasures and a large amount of elixirs in the ruins."

"After I found these things, I stayed in the ruins for about twenty years. I gradually gained intelligence and remembered you, my master."

remains?

treasure?

Fang Xu frowned.

Although people often say that with enough resources and treasures, a pig can also become a martial artist.

But if you want to become a great demon comparable to humans in the Yuanwu realm, it is not something that can be achieved by just piling up resources and treasures.

After all, above Martial Master, one has to comprehend the star map to achieve Martial Lord, and to reach Yuanwu, one has to build the foundation of Taoism and then lose the soul.

Now Xiao Hei's internal foundation has been completed, and the only thing left is the final step of soul-transmigration.

Once his soul falls, he becomes a real monster.

Can this be achieved with resources alone?
"Xiao Hei, stretch out your hand."

Fang Xu spoke, and Xiao Hei handed his hand to Fang Xu without any hesitation.

Holding Xiao Hei's hand, Fang Xu began to carefully examine Xiao Hei's body.

This examination gave him a great shock!

Fang Xu looked at Xiao Hei, who looked confused, in astonishment, and his expression gradually became solemn!

perfect!

The feeling that Xiao Hei in front of Fang Xu gave was flawless perfection!

It was as if his body was specially created for practicing martial arts!
How can this be?

"who are you?"

After some thought, Fang Xu slowly exuded a fierce aura and looked at the donkey monster in front of him with great vigilance.

You have to know that when he and Gu Qiu found the old donkey, he was the only one still in the stable. The other horses, including the Tayunju, had disappeared.

Now that I think about it, this is a suspicious point.

And then, an old donkey with declining qi and blood and an old body, relying on the first and second grade essence pills and qi and blood pills that he gave, was able to become a great demon in just a hundred years. This is unreasonable.

And the old donkey's body.

The flawless body is an existence even more terrifying than the holy body.

Because the holy body is only stronger in a certain aspect, its advantages can be reflected when practicing appropriate skills or training systems.

For example, Chu Mu, the Danxiang Holy Body has a great advantage in alchemy, but in terms of cultivation, she is not yet extremely talented.

But the donkey monster is different. The donkey monster in front of us has a perfect and flawless body.

To put it simply, he is an innate Taoist body, born for the purpose of cultivation.

This is simply impossible.

"Master, what's wrong with you?!"

"I'm Xiao Hei!"

The donkey demon Xiao Hei was frightened by Fang Xu's sudden change and was at a loss.

"Owner……"

Seeing that he didn't say anything, the donkey demon cautiously moved forward and tugged at his clothes.

Fang Xu wanted to shake him off, but seeing that the expression on his face didn't look like he was acting, he hesitated for a moment.

There was something weird about the donkey demon, but he seemed to really know nothing.

"Xiao Hei, think carefully now, starting from the time you were born, and tell me everything you know."

Fang Xu said seriously.

He had to find out what had happened to this donkey monster.

Find out who is behind all this.

The old donkey showed an awkward expression on his face: "Master, I... I was in a daze before I became a demon, and I don't have many memories."

"Tell as much as you can, and don't hide anything!" Fang Xu said.

Xiao Hei hung his head and tried hard to recall.

"I just vaguely remember that I was taken away by a human when I was still a child."

"He put a bridle on me, blindfolded me, and told me to keep walking and walking..."

"Later, I was often whipped and forced to pull very heavy objects."

"Until later, I became ill and my legs and feet became weak."

"That person seemed to have sold me to another human being."

"Many old horses and cows were bought with me..."

"I... I watched them being slaughtered, bled, skinned, and quartered..."

Thinking back to this, Xiao Hei's body couldn't help but tremble.

"Master, it was at that time that a terrible battle broke out in Beicang City, and everyone fled."

"They took away the cattle and horses next to me, and some people also wanted to take me away."

“But when he saw how skinny I was at the time, he gave up.”

"Then the master showed up."

"Gone?" Fang Xu asked doubtfully.

Xiao Hei shook his head: "These are all I can remember."

What he described was just the most normal life of a donkey.

When they were young and strong, they pushed the mill and pulled goods. When they were old and sick, they were sold to butchers to be slaughtered and eaten as meat.

But was there nothing special about the old donkey at that time?

"Forget it, just come back with me."

Knowing that the old donkey's secret would not be discovered in a short period of time, Fang Xu prepared to take him back first and let Gu Yuxi and others see him.

The two of them immediately rushed towards the entrance of Tianhuang Realm.

When arriving at the entrance of Tianhuang Realm, Xiao Hei suddenly stopped and looked at the formation in front of him with a strange expression.

"Let's go."

Fang Xu urged upon seeing this.

Xiao Hei took two steps back: "Master, I dare not."

Fang Xu was puzzled: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Hei shook his head: "I don't know, I just feel that there is something in it that scares me."

"It seems...it seems to be a dead species."

Dead fellow?
Fang Xu looked curiously in the direction of the entrance to Tianxuan Realm.

Is there someone eating donkey meat in there?

But this...

"Why should we be afraid of our dead counterparts?"

"Let's go."

After hearing this, Xiao Hei hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered up the courage to follow Fang Xu's footsteps and headed towards the Tianhuang Realm.

As soon as the two passed through the barrier at the entrance, Xiao Hei's body suddenly began to tremble.

He looked at the sky of the Tianhuang Realm with horror, and his feet seemed to have taken root, unwilling to move forward even a step.

"What are you looking at?"

Fang Xu curiously followed his gaze towards the sky.

He saw nothing but the broken space.

But at this time, Xiao Hei's face was full of sadness, and then two lines of blood and tears flowed out of his eyes strangely!
hum!
Woo!
……

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the originally damaged Tianhuang Realm.

The sound came from all directions, making it impossible to tell the specific direction.

The voice is sad and mournful.

Everyone in the Tianhuang Realm couldn't help but cry after hearing this.

This strange phenomenon naturally attracted the attention of Qi Shaoyu and others. Everyone walked out of the hall and soon came to Fang Xu's location under the guidance of a group of temple disciples.

"Palace Master, what happened?"

Noticing the strangeness of Xiao Hei beside Fang Xu, Zhong Lihui spoke.

Fang Xu shook his head.

He also had no idea what had happened.

"Where is Senior Gu Yuxi?"

Now he can only hope that Bone Prison Breath can see through the secret of Xiao Hei.

"Go and invite Senior Gu."

Upon hearing this, Zhongli Hui immediately sent someone to invite him.

"no need."

At this moment, a stream of light passed by and the figure of Gu Yuxi appeared in front of Fang Xu.

He nodded towards Fang Xu, then stared at the donkey demon Xiao Hei.

a long time--

"Tao body..."

"Different Tao bodies."

"It actually triggered a resonance among the dead wills of the Tianhuang Realm."

"What exactly is this?"

"Fang Xu, where did you find him?"

Fang Xu did not hide anything and directly recounted in detail what happened from the time he first discovered Lao Lu to the time he met him again.

In the crowd, Gu Qiu was surprised to hear that this old donkey was the one he and Fang Xu encountered at the beginning.

The old ape, the long dragon and even the little dragon all looked at Xiao Hei in surprise.

Over a hundred years, it transformed from an old animal with declining energy and blood into a great demon.

This speed is even more terrifying than some monsters with ancient bloodlines.

At least the old ape and the dragon couldn't even imagine it.

The old ape was trapped in the Martial Master realm for more than eighty years.

It was unknown how long the long dragon survived in the sea, and it was finally able to transform into a monster with the help of the vision that Fang Xu saw when he was comprehending the star map.

"Strange……"

After listening to Fang Xu's story, Gu Yuxi looked at Xiao Hei in disbelief.

He had never seen anything so strange.

Possessing a Tao body, even if one is a donkey, one's birth is definitely extraordinary, and there will definitely be many strange phenomena.

But according to the old donkey's own recollection, he seemed to be an ordinary donkey when he was born, nothing unusual, and he lived the life of a donkey afterwards.

If Fang Xu and Gu Qiu had not encountered the battle with Yushan Tianyi in Beicang City, his fate would have been to be slaughtered and eaten.

This is totally inconsistent with the destiny of the Tao body.

When everyone was observing Xiao Hei, he also woke up from that strange state.

Wiping away the blood and tears from the corners of his eyes, Xiao Hei looked at Fang Xu and said, "Master, he died tragically."

Fang Xu and Gu Yuxi looked at each other and asked, "Who?"

Xiao Hei pointed to the sky.

Fang Xu was a little confused.

Gu Yuxi was a little excited and asked, "Are you talking about the will of heaven and earth in the Tianhuang Realm?"

Xiao Hei nodded: "Probably."

"I can feel his despair of being devoured, and his helplessness of being replaced."

"Feeling how he felt when he was finally destroyed by his own children."

This……

Fang Xu looked at Xiang Gu Yuxi in astonishment.

I noticed that the expression on his face was also very complicated at this moment.

"He's right." After a long time, Gu Yuxi sighed and spoke.

I have thought about this seriously for a long time over the years.

The destruction of the Tianhuang Realm seemed to be caused by various forces killing each other in order to seize resources.

But behind this, there seems to be an invisible hand controlling it.

It was that pair of invisible hands that made the conflicts between the various forces irreconcilable. It was also that pair of hands that made the strong men of the Tianhuang Realm act without scruples. In the end, they used the divine descent technique to invite many powerful men to shatter the Tianhuang Realm with their own hands.

"Xiao Hei, can you feel what is controlling the will of heaven and earth in the Tianhuang Realm?"

"Fairy." Xiao Hei gave the answer without any thought.

Immortal! ?

Fang Xu felt cold for a moment, and suddenly thought that the will of the Tianxuan Realm seemed to be controlled by the immortals.

That immortal seemed to be eroding the will of heaven and earth of the Tianxuan Realm step by step.

Moreover, Bai Shan, who controlled Jiang Feng and other disciples of the Ascension Society, also claimed to be an immortal.

It seems that immortals are a race.

Thinking of this, he suddenly had some guesses about Xiao Hei's identity.

"senior……"

Fang Xu was about to speak when Gu Yuxi raised his hand to stop him.

"I suggest that from now on, you'd better let him stay here all the time and never go outside."

Gu Yuxi said with a serious expression.

Fang Xu nodded. He knew that Gu Yuxi should have guessed Xiao Hei's approximate identity.

"Xiao Hei, you must never go outside again."

"I understand, master." Xiao Hei said.

After having someone prepare accommodation for Xiao Hei, Fang Xu gathered everyone together.

He briefly talked about what had happened to him in the past two years, and then asked a few people to keep the disciples of the temple under control and try not to go out unless necessary.

After explaining everything clearly, he found Yun Wan.

"I thought you were going to run away from your marriage."

Looking at Fang Xu, Yun Wan said with a smile.

Fang Xu smiled evilly: "How come?"

"What do they think?"

Yun Wan rolled her eyes: "What can I say? I dream of marrying you."

"But you've been gone for more than two years. I'm afraid they must have been worried sick."

"Go explain it to them yourself later."

Fang Xu touched his nose awkwardly: "Yes, yes."

"Have you met Sister-in-law Wang?" Yun Wan asked.

Fang Xu nodded: "We met for the last time."

When they met for the last time, Yun Wan's face changed slightly: "Sister-in-law Wang..."

"gone."

"She didn't want me to keep her alive."

"I didn't attend the funeral either. I asked Senior Sister Qingluo to help with the arrangements."

"Ugh!"

Yun Wan sighed deeply, feeling very uncomfortable.

"Sister-in-law Wang is suffering."

Fang Xu didn't say anything. During the two years he wandered alone in the Muyun Grassland, he had come to terms with many things.

Life and death are nothing more than a process of transformation of life forms.

People who are narrow-minded and those who are open-minded have completely different views on life and death.

"It's getting late. You should go and explain to Senior Sister Gu Qiu and Mu."

Suppressing the emotion in her heart, Yun Wan spoke.

Fang Xu looked at her with a wicked smile: "Don't worry, I can explain it tomorrow."

Looking at the smirk on his face, Yun Wan took a step back and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Fang Xu simply grabbed her little hand, exerted a little force, and pulled her to his side.

He lowered his head and whispered, "Guess what I'm going to do?"

Yun Wan blushed and symbolically struggled a few times: "We haven't gotten married yet..."

"It's almost there." Fang Xu said, and picked up Yun Wan horizontally.

"ah!"

Yun Wan screamed and buried her head in Fang Xu's arms in embarrassment.

Although the two have known each other for a long time, they have established a relationship and have had intimate contact.

But the final step was never taken.

Now that the day has come, she is naturally nervous and shy. (End of this chapter)
