The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 392: Giant Python Awakens?

The Black Robed Man and Su Jingzhen lay sprawled on the ground.

The only sound was the occasional rasping wheeze emanating from the Black Robed Man’s throat.

The space gradually fell silent.

The Black Robed Man was still conscious, silently channeling his cultivation techniques, slowly drawing in spiritual energy from the void to begin mending his injuries.

He still had plenty of healing pills in his storage ring, but he was simply too weak to retrieve them at the moment.

Recovering through the absorption of spiritual energy was undoubtedly excruciatingly slow.

But he had no other choice.

However, a knot of anxiety still tightened in his chest.

After all, this place was very close to the Evil Moon Sect’s Linjiang Branch. He wasn’t sure if Shen Yifeng and the others would come looking for him soon.

He had to admit that Su Jingzhen still held a considerable position within the Linjiang Branch.

He also wasn’t sure if Su Jingzhen had informed Shen Yifeng and the others when he arrived.

Judging by Su Jingzhen’s previous state, the Black Robed Man now felt no concern for Su Jingzhen’s well-being.

In his opinion, even if Su Jingzhen was not dead, he was probably at the end of his rope.

His condition was far worse than his own.

“Forget it, worrying about it now is pointless. The most important thing is to recover as quickly as possible.

This space isn’t somewhere you can just enter with high cultivation.

Even if Shen Yifeng finds this place, he probably won’t know how to get in.”

The man in black robe muttered to himself like this, which was a kind of self-comfort.

Meanwhile, as the Black Robed Man silently recovered, Su Jingzhen’s consciousness remained lost.

His body was battered and bruised, with numerous tears appearing in his phantom armor.

Blood continuously seeped from those wounds.

His meridians were still in a state of utter chaos.

The power of the North Sea Dragon’s blood continued to wreak havoc on his internal pathways.

Although the process also involved Su Jingzhen’s internal blood qi constantly assimilating and absorbing the power of the North Sea Dragon’s blood, the aftermath of Bloodthirst’s effect was relentless.

The only good thing was that Su Jingzhen was currently unconscious and couldn’t feel the pain.

Only the seven opened Secret Repositories within his body continued to unleash new blood qi, constantly neutralizing and subduing the raging power of the second drop of North Sea Dragon’s blood.

The previous drop of North Sea Dragon’s blood he had consumed had already merged with every strand of blood qi in his body.

Therefore, subduing the raging power of this second drop was significantly easier than the first time.

However, all of this was happening autonomously within his body.

From Su Jingzhen’s perspective, he was unaware of these events.

The blood continuously flowing from his wounds carried traces of the dragon’s might and essence.

As it flowed, it was sensed by the giant python’s massive body lying in the pit.

Su Jingzhen’s blood flowed towards the python’s severed head.

The speed of the blood flow was accelerated by the powerful energy emanating from the python’s body.

In less than half an hour, Su Jingzhen’s blood reached the python’s severed head.

The python’s still crimson blood instantly mingled with Su Jingzhen’s blood.

The trace of dragon power contained within Su Jingzhen’s blood was instantly unleashed.

The blood was then absorbed by the python’s corpse.

The giant python’s body, which had been lying motionless, seemed to tremble at that moment.

However, this scene was not witnessed by either Su Jingzhen or the Black Robed Man.

Su Jingzhen’s blood continued to flow.

As time passed, the frequency of the python’s tremors seemed to increase.

If the Black Robed Man had the strength to stand up at that moment, he would have undoubtedly noticed that the python’s heart seemed to have resumed beating.

As the python’s body trembled more intensely, a sharp sword qi, accompanied by an overwhelming aura, suddenly appeared within the pit.

This sword qi and aura were directed solely at the python.

“What…what’s happening?

What’s going on? Why is the supreme sword qi being triggered here?”

The Black Robed Man, who had been immersed in meditation and recovering his strength, was startled by the sudden appearance of the sword qi.

His eyes were filled with astonishment.

Even though he was already at the edge of the giant pit, when the sword energy condensed, he felt a sharp pain in his skin.

It was as if the sharp energy was about to cut him directly.

“This is the sword energy that seals this giant python! Could it be that it’s about to recover its vitality now?”

The black-robed man muttered to himself, his heart filled with both apprehension and excitement.

He had been sitting cross-legged at the mouth of the python’s carcass for so long and had naturally sensed the supreme vitality within the python’s body.

And that was his target.

But before he could complete his goal, Su Jingzhen had disrupted his plans.

Now, seeing the python undergoing this change, he instinctively believed that his previous actions had finally had some effect.

“No, I have to speed up my recovery. If it truly recovers its vitality and is resurrected, then with my current state, I won’t be able to control it.”

As the black-robed man’s heart grew heavy, he closed his eyes again.

He focused his mind, greedily absorbing the spiritual energy from the void.

The black-robed man knew, even if the python had the possibility of resurrection, with this sword energy suppressing it, the process would be incredibly difficult.

It would be impossible to achieve it in a short time.

Thus, the giant pit in the center of this strange land once again fell into a strange silence.

The python’s corpse, or rather its heart, continued to tremble at its previous frequency, and the blood flowing from Su Jingzhen’s body was constantly being absorbed by it.

As it absorbed more and more of Su Jingzhen’s blood, the pressure emanating from the python grew stronger.

Along the path where Su Jingzhen’s blood flowed, it actively exerted a suction force.

The violent power still raging within Su Jingzhen, under the pull of this force, gradually flowed out of his body as if finding an outlet.

And as this violent power continuously flowed out, Su Jingzhen’s body gradually calmed down.

The meridians that should have continued to be damaged were gradually nourished by the new blood qi power flowing from the seven Secret Repositories.

They began to recover.

Although the seven human Secret Repositories were constantly generating blood qi power and healing his injuries, the situation this time was too dire. It would be a long process to fully recover.

Fortunately, he was an outstanding Body Cultivation practitioner, and he had opened so many Secret Repositories by following the orthodox path.

Otherwise, with just this continuous bleeding, anyone else would have been dead long ago.

After several hours, the black-robed man could barely move his fingers.

But he still couldn’t stand up.

Su Jingzhen’s condition, however, had completely calmed down.

At this moment, there was a powerful force emanating from the mouth of the python’s carcass, slowly flowing along the traces of Su Jingzhen’s blood flow and injected into his body.

This force was powerful yet gentle.

It was like a return of nourishment…
