The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 262: A Firm Resolve

Since the opening of the Tanzhong Acupoint, Su Jingzhen’s control over his own body had become incredibly intimate.

It had even reached a level of mastery.

So when he manipulated the blood qi to divide the Pink Poisonous Woman Seal, it was surprisingly smooth.

The entire Pink Poisonous Woman Seal was divided into five parts.

Although the energy of each part had weakened, they all condensed into the shape of a small spider.

In less than an hour, he had successfully driven these five divided Pink Poisonous Woman Seals to the five newly opened Secret Repositories within his body.

When these five spider-shaped imprints were suppressed on the five Secret Repositories, Su Jingzhen discovered that he could now easily control the manifestation and disappearance of the Pink Poisonous Woman Seal.

Noticing this, a confident smile curved Su Jingzhen’s lips.

When he emerged from this state, he found Xuening and the others still diligently refining pills.

It had already been almost another hour, and they hadn’t succeeded yet?

He looked closely, and the absolute purity that Xuening had previously exuded seemed to have vanished.

‘She didn’t enter that state? No wonder.’

As Su Jingzhen muttered to himself, a sudden plume of black smoke erupted from the alchemy furnace in front of Xuening.

This attempt at refining the pill had failed again!

However, Xuening and Ye Zhiqiu’s expressions remained unchanged.

They once again began to prepare the medicinal herbs.

Repeated failures had no impact on them whatsoever.

Seeing this, Su Jingzhen exchanged a glance with Bai Xiu beside him.

The latter sighed with a wry smile. “Perhaps I’ve finally realized the gap between us. I’m simply inferior to them in terms of mental state.”

In Bai Xiu’s view, after two consecutive failures, although it wouldn’t shatter his Dao heart, it would inevitably dampen his enthusiasm.

It was impossible to continue attempting without any hesitation.

Su Jingzhen smiled, choosing not to reply.

His gaze returned to Xuening. He sensed that the aura around her had once again become pure.

Just now, she had entered that Dan Heart state once more.

Xuening remained in control, with Ye Zhiqiu assisting her as always.

After so many attempts, they had become incredibly efficient at refining the herbs.

In just a single incense stick’s time, the forty-eight portions of herbs were processed.

They then began the fusion process once more.

“Friend Bai, perhaps you should prepare yourself,” Su Jingzhen reminded him, and Bai Xiu’s expression instantly turned serious.

The first forty herbs were child’s play for Xuening, especially since she was currently in the Dan Heart state.

There was no chance of any mistakes.

Starting with the forty-first herb, Ye Zhiqiu also joined in the operation.

The two women’s expressions were solemn and serious, but this time, the forty-eighth portion of Bodhi Liquid seamlessly and perfectly integrated into the Bodhi Breaking Through Adversity Pill.

The third finished pill directly solidified within the alchemy furnace.

Xuening continued to manipulate the pill, flipping and roasting it within the furnace.

Soon, the finished pill flew out of the furnace.

When Xuening grasped it, she glanced at it and a hint of disappointment crossed her features.

“A bit disappointing, it’s still only at the high quality. It seems like it’s always just a little short of the top grade.”

Hearing this, Ye Zhiqiu smiled and said, “Sister Xuening, you don’t need to be so hard on yourself. Only you could refine it to the high quality. If it were me, I’d probably only manage to make a mid-grade one at best.”

There was a hint of wistfulness in Ye Zhiqiu’s tone as if, unknowingly, Xuening’s alchemy skills had reached her level.

Even surpassed her in some aspects.

This was something Ye Zhiqiu wouldn’t have believed before, unless she had experienced it firsthand.

She knew that at the beginning of the Alchemy Master Conference, Xuening’s skill was only at the peak of the third rank.

Thinking about it, the Alchemy Master Conference had only been going on for two days.

To be able to elevate from the peak of the third rank to the fourth rank in just two days, and to refine a Bodhi Breaking Through Adversity Pill, which was already considered excellent among the fourth-rank pills, was truly astonishing.

And to achieve the high quality, this kind of talent was truly beyond her reach.

But now that the pill had been successfully refined, everyone’s brows furrowed once more.

“Should we try the same method as before?” Xuening asked, holding the pill in her hand.

Her words caused Ye Zhiqiu and Bai Xiu’s brows to furrow.

The last time they had fed the elder of the Feng family the high quality pill, the results were evident to all.

“What if we try giving him both the Blood-Forming Pill and the Bodhi Breaking Through Adversity Pill at the same time this time?” Bai Xiu suggested after a moment of contemplation.

Ye Zhiqiu immediately shook her head. “These are completely different attributes. Even if they can both exert their medicinal power simultaneously, they won’t enhance the effect of the Bodhi Breaking Through Adversity Pill in any way.”

At this, both Bai Xiu and Xuening’s eyes held a hint of despair.

It was then that Su Jingzhen finally made up his mind. He walked directly to the Ancestor of the Feng family.

“Let me remove this Pink Poisonous Woman Seal first,” Su Jingzhen declared.

His words caused Ye Zhiqiu, Xuening, and Bai Xiu to be taken aback.

For a moment, they didn’t understand what Su Jingzhen meant.

The next instant, Xuening seemed to have realized something, her expression changing drastically.

“Brother Su…you…”

Su Jingzhen didn’t respond to Xuening. Instead, he simply took off his shirt.

Revealing the Pink Poisonous Woman Seal on his Tanzhong Acupoint.

Seeing the small pink spider on Su Jingzhen’s chest, Bai Xiu and Ye Zhiqiu’s faces were filled with shock.

“Friend Su, you!”

“Friend Su, what is going on?”

Bai Xiu and Ye Zhiqiu exclaimed in unison, their voices filled with astonishment.

A smile played on Su Jingzhen’s lips.

“Perhaps this is the fate that binds me to the Ancestor of the Feng family.

Yes, not long ago, I was also attacked by a Pink Poisonous Woman and unfortunately contracted the poison. However, because I practice Body Cultivation, some of the techniques in Body Cultivation are quite unique, and this kind of Pink Poisonous Woman’s venom has no effect on me.

Since the Bodhi Breaking Through Adversity Pill can’t eliminate this Pink Poisonous Woman Seal, I guess I’ll have to do it myself.”

Su Jingzhen’s words caused Ye Zhiqiu and the others to change their expressions again.

They immediately understood Su Jingzhen’s plan.

“Friend Su, are you planning to absorb the Pink Poisonous Woman Seal from the Ancestor of the Feng family into your body? This is impossible!”
