The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

The first thing Su Jingzhen felt upon regaining consciousness was a sharp pain.

However, this level of pain was still within his tolerance.

He looked inward, and found that most of his meridians were still damaged.

A small portion had already begun to repair itself.

While the seven human Secret Repositories continued to provide him with blood qi power, the damaged meridians were insufficient to contain it.

Forcing it would cause his already fragile meridians to suffer a second destruction.

As he looked inward, he also discovered a powerful yet gentle force within his body, constantly nourishing his meridians.

He could tell that this force did not belong to the seven human Secret Repositories, nor to the North Sea Dragon’s blood.

“This is… the power of that giant python?”

At this moment, he also discovered the connection between the blood at the wound and the giant python nearby.

“What exactly is going on?”

Su Jingzhen felt like he had missed something while in an unconscious state.

However, at this moment, his mind once again recalled the situation he faced before he fell unconscious.

His divine consciousness surged out from the Niwan Palace.

It quickly explored the situation within the large pit.

The next instant, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Because the black-robed man was still lying there.

About ten zhang away.

But when Su Jingzhen’s divine consciousness swept over him, he discovered that the black-robed man still had a breath.

“It’s really hard to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator.”

He sighed inwardly, but Su Jingzhen suddenly made a decision.

The blood and qi from the seven Secret Repositories surged again.

He forced it to circulate within his damaged meridians.

Since he had regained consciousness, the first thing he had to do was kill the black-robed man.

In his eyes, this guy was a threat as long as he was alive, even if he was lying there unable to move.

“Hiss!”

Forcibly running this kind of blood energy, the heart-wrenching pain once again spread through him.

It made him involuntarily gasp.

When the blood energy ran through the damaged meridians.

It instantly pulled at the injuries within his body.

His internal organs were once again injured.

A mouthful of blood gushed out.

At this time, Su Jingzhen couldn’t care about anything else.

Anyway, between him and the black-robed man, only one could walk out of this strange place today.

So this guy had to die no matter what.

While spitting blood, Su Jingzhen struggled to stand up.

At this moment, he only then belatedly realized that the python’s body in the pit was still trembling.

And the sharp sword energy was almost solidifying into a tangible form.

Looking at the body of the python, Su Jingzhen was shocked.

His expression was stunned.

His thoughts seemed to have stopped working at this moment.

He was completely dumbfounded, not knowing what was going on.

“Forget it…”

However, after just a few seconds of looking, Su Jingzhen retracted his gaze.

He turned and continued to stare at the black-robed man lying there.

No matter what he did, Su Jingzhen never forgot his original intention.

Whether this python was going to be resurrected or not, he had to deal with the black-robed man first.

He picked up the black brick that had fallen to the ground and walked towards the black-robed man step by step.

His steps were staggering, but firm.

At this time, although the black-robed man didn’t move at all, Su Jingzhen still felt guarded.

His divine consciousness in the Niwan Palace surged instantly and then formed a shield.

It completely enveloped his entire sea of consciousness.

After all, the other party was a Spiritual Cultivator of a much higher level than himself.

Even in a serious injury, at this distance, if he suddenly attacked with Spiritual Cultivation techniques, he might not be able to dodge well.

So it’s better to be prepared.

One step… two steps…

Su Jingzhen was getting closer and closer to the black-robed man.

He also clenched the black brick in his hand tighter.

Gritting his teeth against the unparalleled pain in his body, the blood energy was not enough for him to unleash the dragon-shaped qi from a distance of one zhang.

This time, to kill the black-robed man, he had to operate at close range.

His steps were still staggering.

But he quickly reached a distance where he could attack.

“Die!”

Su Jingzhen muttered and raised the black brick.

He was about to smash it down on the black-robed man’s head.

However, just at this moment, the black-robed man suddenly opened his eyes.

He also stood up instantly.

This sudden turn of events startled Su Jingzhen.

But the black brick in his hand still locked onto the black-robed man’s head and smashed down.

At the same time, the black-robed man also drew a long sword from his hand.

Holding the sword in both hands, he slashed at Su Jingzhen.

“Clang!”

The sound of metal clashing rang out again.

The black-robed man’s current state was probably not much better than Su Jingzhen’s.

He didn’t have much strength left.

As a Body Cultivation practitioner, Su Jingzhen had a slight advantage in this close-quarters combat.

Su Jingzhen stood still, but the black-robed man took three or four steps back.

At the same time, a powerful wave of divine consciousness surged in the black-robed man’s mind.

This divine consciousness also condensed into a sword just like last time, and pointed directly at Su Jingzhen’s Niwan Palace.

Su Jingzhen felt the powerful fluctuation of divine consciousness, but he didn’t care.

He had already prepared his defenses.

Enduring the intense pain in his body and the secondary damage to his meridians, he once again mobilized the blood energy from the seven Secret Repositories in his body.

The Surging Spring acupoints on his feet erupted, and with a stomp of his foot, he instantly caught up.

This time, he didn’t use The Netherworld Ghost Technique, but his sudden burst of speed was enough.

He could see that the black-robed man was also seriously injured, and just like himself was in a state of exhaustion.

But he was confident that as a Body Cultivation practitioner, his ability to withstand blows and his endurance would definitely surpass the black-robed man.

Under this belief of killing, Su Jingzhen exerted too much force and coughed up another mouthful of blood.

His foot stumbled, and he almost fell again.

The brick he was about to smash couldn’t be swung.

The black-robed man opposite him was not much better either. After his divine consciousness attack failed, his figure had retreated to the edge of the pit.

He bumped into a large rock.

His body trembled, he could barely hold onto his long sword.

Su Jingzhen’s previous brick had landed with brutal force.

A few hours of recovery had only managed to replenish a fraction of his strength.

That single blow had completely drained him.

At this moment, both Su Jingzhen and the black robed man were clinging to life by a thread.

“You are the first person who has put me on the brink of death since I started to show my talent.

You deserve to die.”

But looking at the black robed man who had nowhere to retreat, Su Jingzhen knew he wouldn’t have the strength to fly with his magical artifact.

Su Jingzhen walked towards him with a brick in hand, muttering curses under his breath.

Since transmigrating to this world, Su Jingzhen had always lived cautiously.

This time, he finally wanted to take a risk, but he ended up in danger.

He felt regret and anger welling up inside him.

All he wanted now was to crush the black robed man’s heart and shatter his skull.

“You’re exceptional, even more so than I imagined.

No, to be precise, among the younger generation, you’re the most outstanding I’ve ever seen!

But, killing me? That’s impossible!”

The black robed man’s gaze was fixed on Su Jingzhen, his voice a chilling blend of admiration and coldness.

Reflecting on the events of the day, the black robed man felt a flicker of confusion.

He never expected the situation to escalate to this point.

He also never imagined that a mere Flesh Body Golden Embryo cultivator could be so formidable.

He regretted not being decisive enough in the beginning, not eliminating Su Jingzhen first and then claiming everything from the giant python’s corpse.

But there were no regrets in life.

Both men were contemplating how to survive the day.

Neither Su Jingzhen nor the black robed man considered surrender or reconciliation.

They both only wanted to kill the other.

“Out of strength, are you?

Divine consciousness useless?

Talismans are exhausted?

Can’t conjure spells anymore?

Then, it’s my turn now?”

With every step, Su Jingzhen would launch a fresh taunt at the black robed man.

Having lived two lives, Su Jingzhen had a keen understanding of the human heart.

He knew that in this stalemate, psychological warfare could be more effective than a direct attack.

As soon as Su Jingzhen finished speaking, the black robed man’s body began to tremble.

His emotional state was clearly volatile.

Before Su Jingzhen could get closer, the black robed man spat out a mouthful of blood.

His breath grew weaker.

A strange smile crept onto Su Jingzhen’s lips.

But in reality, the pain within him was nearing its breaking point.

He pushed himself forward, taking three steps to reach the black robed man.

He raised his black brick and swung it towards the black robed man’s head.

Unexpectedly, the black robed man still had some strength left.

He dodged to the side, albeit with a staggering gait.

He had avoided the blow.

But Su Jingzhen’s momentum carried him forward, causing him to slam face-first onto the large rock the black robed man had been leaning against.

Cold sweat beaded on his forehead from the pain.

He gasped for breath and his vision blurred.

He knew this was a sign that he was about to faint again.

“So hard to kill!”

He muttered to himself, once again forcing his body to activate the blood energy within his seven Secret Repositories.

He deliberately damaged the meridians he had just repaired.

He knew that only this wave after wave of intense pain could keep him conscious for a short while.

“This is… what kind of human suffering…”

Still gasping for breath, Su Jingzhen prepared to unleash another surge of blood energy to end it all.

But before he could attack, the black robed man suddenly grabbed him from behind, clinging to him like an octopus.

Su Jingzhen’s black brick was now useless and it was unable to find its target.

The black robed man was much thinner than Su Jingzhen, but Su Jingzhen’s body had become his perfect shield.

“I said before, not just anyone is worthy of killing me.

You were using some kind of secret technique when you first injured me, weren’t you?

And you swallowed a drop of North Sea Dragon’s blood earlier.

Your meridians must be completely shattered by now, right?

It must hurt to force your blood energy again.

It’s okay, just shout out if you can’t hold on any longer.

There’s only us here, no one will laugh at you.

If you can’t hold on, just let go.

Death is painless.”

The black robed man remained clinging to Su Jingzhen’s back, and a mocking voice fell into his ear.

Su Jingzhen wasn’t the only one with a wicked heart.

The man in black robe was also learning and applying what he learned, and was quite familiar with it.

But these taunts had little effect on Su Jingzhen.

“Clear mind like water, water is the mind…”

He muttered the Clear Heart Mantra, trying to find an angle to attack, but to no avail.

He couldn’t reach him, not at all!

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his neck.

The black robed man had bitten him.

Su Jingzhen’s first thought was, “Su Jingzhen, you’re no longer clean.”

Being bitten by this disgusting creature, even a hundred baths with flower petals wouldn’t wash away the feeling.

“Hmm, as expected of a Body Cultivation, your physical strength is indeed extraordinary.”

The black robed man said with a grimace, his only way to hurt Su Jingzhen now was with his teeth.

But he realized that this method was draining his strength more than he anticipated.

The black robed man could guess Su Jingzhen’s condition and knew that the attack Su Jingzhen had just launched must have cost him dearly.

He just needed to wait for Su Jingzhen to collapse again, and victory would be his.

“Clang!”

As Su Jingzhen’s black brick fell to the ground, the black robed man felt a surge of hope.

He thought Su Jingzhen had reached his limit.

But then he saw a long sword appear in Su Jingzhen’s hand.

The sword was ordinary, but sharp enough.

Seeing Su Jingzhen holding the sword upside down, pointing it directly at his own Dantian, the black robed man’s heart skipped a beat, and a wave of unease washed over him.

“What…what are you doing!”

He asked instinctively.

Su Jingzhen’s lips curled into a cruel smile.

He then carefully felt the black robed man’s position on his back.

“I said, you have to die today.

I never break my promises.”

He muttered under his breath, without hesitation, he plunged the sword into his own Dantian.

The sword pierced through his body and pierced into the body of the man in black robe without any deviation.

The black robed man’s eyes widened in pain and disbelief.

He had never seen anyone so ruthless that they were willing to stab themselves in the Dantian!

He realized that Su Jingzhen was simply more ruthless than him.

Perhaps, today’s death was not unjust…
