The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 322: Pearl Tainted With Dust

“It’s just ahead, just a short distance away!

There’s definitely something calling to me.

No, it should be said that something is definitely calling to the drop of dragon blood within me.”

Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.

His steps quickened.

One step!

Five steps!

Ten steps!

Fifty steps!

According to his past experience, the pressure here should already be at his limit.

Or rather, with his current Flesh Body Golden Embroy fourth-stage Body Cultivation, he shouldn’t be able to reach this position.

Today, with the surge of blood energy within him, or rather, the rebellion of the North Sea Dragon blood, he somehow endured this pressure.

The special energy within the thick fog became increasingly dense, constantly merging with the attributed energy of the North Sea Dragon blood in his body.

Although Su Jingzhen could still maintain his own rationality, the blood energy within him became increasingly agitated.

It was as if it wanted to burst out through every pore in his body.

He took another five steps forward.

The view before him suddenly changed again.

All the thick fog dissipated.

The scene that appeared in his vision, although somewhat dim, was finally clear.

In front of Su Jingzhen was a black pit, four or five zhang deep and about a hundred zhang in diameter.

The call he felt was coming from this pit.

As he looked towards it, he vaguely saw a winding, massive body, like a giant python.

To be precise, it was a python corpse!

“Python Scales Power…North Sea Dragon blood…Is this a python corpse? Or a dragon corpse?”

When he saw this massive corpse, Su Jingzhen seemed to vaguely understand something.

“Perhaps this canyon was formed because of the corpse in front of me.

The sword qi that Shuang Jiang mentioned was aimed at killing this thing.

But what realm did it reach? After so many years, its body hasn’t decayed.”

Su Jingzhen muttered to himself again.

In his vision, the corpse of this unknown python or dragon seemed surprisingly fresh.

Even at the severed end, there was a faint flow of crimson blood.

Judging by the canyon’s appearance, it had been formed for over a thousand years.

What kind of monster could remain uncorrupted for a thousand years? Su Jingzhen couldn’t even begin to imagine.

As he continued to observe the central pit, his astonishment grew.

He could clearly sense an incredibly sharp sword qi emanating from within the pit.

It was exactly the same as the sword qi in the thick fog.

While he could still resist the sword intent in the fog to some extent, the sword qi in the pit filled him with fear.

He knew that if he tried to force his way into the pit, it wouldn’t be a question of whether he could withstand the pressure.

The sword qi swirling around in the void would be enough to overwhelm him.

“All the secrets of this place must be in this pit.

Perhaps on top of this corpse.

But at my current level, or before I gather eight hundred points and ensure I can unlock the next Secret Repository, I probably don’t have the qualifications to go down.”

After observing for a while, Su Jingzhen still had the self-awareness to not act rashly.

Everything he had was moving in a positive direction.

As long as he survived, he could become invincible in the Qingzhou region in a very short time.

There was no need to risk exploring everything below just out of curiosity.

The last time he recklessly swallowed the North Sea Dragon blood almost cost him his life.

Fortunately, his points at the time were just enough to unlock the Stone Gate Acupoint, a stroke of luck.

Having lived two lives, Su Jingzhen understood the saying, “Those who often walk by the river will eventually get their shoes wet.”

After that incident, he became extremely cautious about his life.

He wouldn’t take such risks without being sure or fully prepared.

As he thought this, the call emanating from the center of the pit seemed to intensify.

Even the crimson blood visible to his eyes emitted a faint crimson glow.

The attribute power of the North Sea Dragon blood in his body became increasingly agitated.

Su Jingzhen instinctively pulled out the black jade bottle containing the last drop of North Sea Dragon blood.

“If I absorb the last drop of North Sea Dragon blood, maybe I’ll have the qualifications to go down…”

He muttered to himself again.

However, as soon as his voice fell, a cold sweat broke out on his body.

“I actually had such a terrifying thought.

Could this thing have the ability to beguile people?”

Su Jingzhen was startled and immediately put the black jade bottle away in his storage bracelet.

Without hesitation, he decisively retreated.

In a few breaths, he retreated to the position where he often practiced.

He immediately began practicing Python Scales Power, gradually calming his mind.

After practicing three times, Su Jingzhen stopped.

A thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

“It seems that the Python Scales Power Shuang Jiang gave me before is not just compatible with the North Sea Dragon blood she asked me to find.

It also aligns with the ultimate secret of this canyon.

Perhaps the reason why I could receive the call and see the pit at the fourth layer of Flesh Body Golden Embroy is not only because I absorbed the North Sea Dragon blood, but also because I practiced Python Scales Power!

The attributes of these three things are the same.

If I could obtain the remains of the giant python or dragon, my Python Scales Power and even my body cultivation foundation could be further enhanced…”

Through rational thinking, Su Jingzhen quickly deduced many things.

And he subconsciously felt that his current deductions should be true.

He had a bottom line in his heart.

After understanding this, Su Jingzhen suddenly lay back on the ground.

He just lay there quietly.

……

Time flowed like sand through fingers, disappearing quickly.

The sun set, and night fell.

Su Jingzhen was still in Clear Wind Mountain and hadn’t come down.

Outside Linjiang City, however, two white flying spirit birds of a rather high level suddenly rushed towards this direction.

Standing on the two spirit birds were nearly thirty figures.

Leading the way was Ouyang Mingyue, Vice President Ouyang, whom Su Jingzhen and the others had met in Yunmeng City and were somewhat familiar with!

Seeing this five-short and stout man, the identities of this group of people became clear.

Alchemist Association!

“Isn’t this Linjiang City just ahead?

It’s a bit surprising that the Evil Moon Sect master doesn’t care about the affairs of the Linjiang branch.

But what qualifications or ability does a mere demonic sect have to cultivate Xuening?

If the Dantang clan wants to restore its former glory, only the Alchemist Association in Qingzhou can help them.

The Dantang clan’s heir falling into the demonic sect is indeed a pearl tainted with dust.”
