Asura Emperor Venerable-Chapter 923: Gorilla

"You freak, actually snatching food from the heavens and the earth!" The Purple Gold Rat gasped.

You really are a bold person.

Shi Hao directly swallowed a mouthful of spring water, relying on the Little Star Universe to help him digest it, without worrying about any issues.

"Gulp," followed by his remark, "What, aren’t you convinced?"

"I also want a share!" Purple Gold Rat didn’t have Shi Hao’s methods, but it wasn’t ordinary either; it immediately dove into the spring.

Tsk, the saying that mice love to dig holes is no joke.

However, there was an invisible force sealing the spring, which stopped the Purple Gold Rat as soon as it got in a bit.

The Purple Gold Rat exerted all its efforts to penetrate multiple obstacles, going into treasure vaults like it was nothing, yet it met its match here, unable to proceed further.

After half a day, it had no choice but to retreat, sitting on the ground panting heavily.

Not from tiredness, but from anger and unwillingness.

Shi Hao shrugged his hands, "Even if you got in, it wouldn’t matter; I’ve already drained the spring liquid from inside."

"Oh, then I’m relieved—relieved, your sister!?" The Purple Gold Rat suddenly flew into a rage, lunging at Shi Hao. "Obviously, there’s no treasure liquid left, yet you watched me waste my efforts? Are you doing this on purpose? You must be, you’re just that kind of person!"

Shi Hao pretended to be serious, blocking while arguing, "You’re mistaken, how could I be that kind of person?"

"Don’t deny it, you are!" Purple Gold Rat insisted, infuriated. Wasn’t this deliberately making fun of me?

Watching them tussle, the Ox King’s heart was full of shock.

These two are both incredibly formidable characters!

Would anyone else dare to break the rules and "steal" the spring water?

No one would dare!

Since entering here, one would surely follow the rules, and if heaven and earth didn’t offer, who would dare demand?

But not only did Shi Hao demand, he succeeded.

This is truly audacious and bold beyond measure.

Would Niu Niu, following them, risk offending heaven and earth, getting implicated?

Ox King was very worried, but where could it go at this moment? It could only follow Shi Hao all the way into the abyss.

Alas, heaven must know, Niu Niu is innocent!

After Shi Hao and the Purple Gold Rat had their squabble, they continued their journey.

Another day had passed, and ahead appeared the third island.

This aroused interest in Shi Hao and the Purple Gold Rat, even the Ox King, who was eager to try. Though it’s afraid of death, it couldn’t resist the temptation upon seeing benefits, typical fence-sitter, one who isn’t reliable when danger arises.

However, as they approached, a beast roar echoed, shaking the heavens and earth, causing the sea to explode into a frenzy, spreading wildly.

"Hiss, there’s a ferocious beast stationed there!"

"Let’s see what it is?"

Shi Hao patted the Ox King, indicating for it to proceed, while Ox King’s legs trembled. As a ferocious beast, it was most sensitive to such aura, already feeling its bloodline being suppressed.

The beast on the island was stronger, and not just by a bit.

It truly didn’t want to go, but couldn’t resist Shi Hao’s urging, slowly moving forward, mooing continuously.

"Master, there’s a big fellow, so terrifying!"

"Your Niu Niu is so afraid!"

"Shall we go home?"

Unfortunately, Shi Hao couldn’t understand, and even if he could, he wouldn’t listen.

Fearing everything, why come out to explore?

Fortune is sought amidst danger.

However, although Ox King walked slowly, it soon saw the true form of the ferocious beast on the island.

——A gigantic silver gorilla, with three eyes, standing upright, majestic and awe-inspiring.

Looking closely, it was actually shackled, one foot bound with a chain, its material unknown, binding it tightly.

"Heaven Connecting Road!" Shi Hao hissed.

How could one manage such an opponent?

Under two hundred years old, only a hundred or so geniuses can ascend to Saintly Position, how could one appear at Heaven Connecting Road level?

Unless it’s someone like Shi Hao or Shi Zhong, who wouldn’t need two hundred years, give them ten or twenty more years and Heaven Connecting Road is surely possible.

The problem is, how often does one freak like them emerge across eras?

Besides, Shi Zhong has already been eliminated.

Though Shi Hao’s combat power is astonishing, he’s only just entered the Saintly Position, can he rival Heaven Connecting Road?

The key is, this gorilla probably entered Heaven Connecting Road years ago, its combat power far surpassing a newcomer.

"Want to test its quality?" Shi Hao asked the Purple Gold Rat.

"You go," Purple Gold Rat sat on ox head, gesturing courteously.

It definitely wouldn’t go.

"Moo!" Ox King called, meaning why do something with no benefits?

There are plenty of Heaven Connecting Road in the world, you want to test each one?

Shi Hao contemplated, "Let’s first see what this ferocious beast is guarding; if there’s no treasure, we don’t need to take risks."

Ox King repeatedly nodded, master is wise, too wise.

Shi Hao circled the island, not releasing the Little Star Universe or domain, nor even the Soul Force. If the gorilla’s combat power were too high, one strike could destroy the soul, Little Star Universe or domain, causing him severe damage.

Take it easy, proceed cautiously.

After circling, Shi Hao finally found something.

Under the silver gorilla’s foot, grew a very short plant with a single red fruit, crystal clear. The gorilla was so large that the plant appeared insignificant, easily missed without careful observation.

However, upon seeing the plant, the previously calm gorilla suddenly reacted, abruptly punching at Shi Hao.

The gorilla and Shi Hao were far apart, its fists couldn’t hit Shi Hao directly. But the punch missed; the overwhelming force surged forth, carrying an indomitable aura.

So strong!

Shi Hao immediately assessed and quickly grabbed Ox King, retreating fast.

This strike was too terrifying; he couldn’t take it.

Ox King’s speed was too slow; if Shi Hao hadn’t intervened, Ox King would likely become beef jerky.

Ox King belatedly realized, only reacting when safe, mooing tearfully.

Outside is too dangerous; it wants to go home, missing its fellow cows.

"Red Jade Sacred Fruit!" Purple Gold Rat pointed at the plant, "Nine Stars Spiritual Medicine, Little Stone, quick, go eliminate that gorilla, let’s collect the fruit."

Shi Hao gave it an eye-roll; is this the time for idle banter?

How fierce is this gorilla, haven’t you seen?

Does mocking me bring you pleasure?

You’re such a low-level amusements guy.

"Little Stone, your eyes are full of drama!" Purple Gold Rat spread its hands, quite emotional.

Ox King was speechless, you two sure have big hearts.
