The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 933: The Idea of Breeding Gu

Chapter 933: The Idea of Breeding Gu

At this moment, Little Ling showed no signs of being distant or reserved in front of Su Jingzhen.

This allowed Su Jingzhen to confirm that she was still the same Little Ling he knew.

If that was the case, then everything was fine.

Even if Little Ling had activated some hidden power within her, it would only be a good thing.

At the very least, he wouldn't have to constantly protect her during their journey.

As Su Jingzhen and Little Ling continued to move forward, the temperature within the Flame Space continued to rise.

From time to time, participants who couldn't stand the heat would be eliminated.

At this stage of the trial, if someone didn't want to die, they would automatically be expelled from the flaming space as soon as they couldn't hold on.

Those who were thrown out by the fireballs in the first round, despite their weaker cultivation, all survived without fatalities, although they ended up with severe injuries.

Now, fireballs comparable to the power of a Celestial Being Realm expert frequently surged toward Su Jingzhen and Little Ling.

Su Jingzhen, however, discovered another useful aspect of the Deep Sea Netherflame.

Whenever he condensed the Deep Sea Netherflame in his palm, its aura seemed to suppress the surrounding fireballs, causing them to avoid him and Little Ling.

Even without the protection of extreme ice energy, the intense heat seemed unable to harm him at all with the presence of the Deep Sea Netherflame.

"It seems that the ultimate answer within this flame space lies in these special heavenly fires."

Su Jingzhen once more muttered to himself.

No matter who it was, as long as they could acquire one of the special heavenly fires within this space, they would be able to clearly sense the locations of other fires of the same level.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen's mind seemed to have a map of the flame space, clearly marking the positions of all the special fires.

"Don't just focus on using the power of the Deep Sea Netherflame. Send it in here so that I can use it too!"

While Su Jingzhen was using the Deep Sea Netherflame to clear the path, Little Green's voice suddenly echoed in his ear.

Its tone was filled with excitement.

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen was stunned for a moment, but he didn't hesitate. He immediately separated the Deep Sea Netherflame from his body and sent it into the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

Inside the spiritual spring cave, Su Jingzhen looked at Little Green with some nervousness and said, "Little Green, can you not absorb it all and leave me some fire?"

The Deep Sea Netherflame's ability to burn the soul was indeed impressive, but compared to Little Green's recovery, Su Jingzhen was willing to part with it.

After all, he already had the Flesh and Blood Fire, so the Deep Sea Netherflame was just an added bonus.

As the Deep Sea Netherflame burned in the Spiritual Spring Cave, Little Green's third branch swayed slightly. Then, as if a suction force emerged, the Deep Sea Netherflame was drawn onto Little Green's branch.

The next moment, Little Green's fourth branch seemed to be on the verge of growing.

A blue rune appeared on its trunk.

However, for Su Jingzhen, not a single trace of the Deep Sea Netherflame was left behind.

Su Jingzhen couldn't help but smile. But in the next moment, he suddenly felt a surge of intense heat from the spiritual spring space.

His gaze immediately shifted to the blue rune on Little Green's trunk.

There, a blue flame suddenly ignited.

The energy it emitted was identical to the one that Little Green had just absorbed!

Replication!

Su Jingzhen immediately understood Little Green's intention.

He hadn't expected Little Green to have such a trick up its sleeve!

However, after a moment's thought, he accepted it.

After all, Little Green was the spirit of the world. Although the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss was still mostly barren, it had regained some of its abilities. Being able to replicate a special heavenly fire didn't seem so strange.

After replicating the Deep Sea Netherflame, Little Green's fourth branch grew successfully.

The Deep Sea Netherflame seemed to be extremely important for Little Green.

However, the fourth branch had no leaves at all.

Before Su Jingzhen could say anything, Little Green spoke first, "The more, the better!"

With just those four words, Su Jingzhen understood.

Then, a ripple passed through Little Green's branch once more, and the Deep Sea Netherflame was returned to Su Jingzhen's body intact.

Just like before, Su Jingzhen placed it in the Tanzhong acupoint where the Flesh and Blood Fire's origin resided.

With a single thought, he could command either the Flesh and Blood Fire or the Deep Sea Netherflame as easily as moving his own arm.

Su Jingzhen's lips curled into another smile as he looked deeper into the flame space, as if surveying his own territory.

"If we don't remove this man soon, all the resources the Divine Dan Sect has accumulated over countless ages might be destroyed in an instant."

"Grand Elder, that is not a solution."

"..."

Seeing Su Jingzhen's expression, the elders became restless once again.

Zhou Daoqi sent another message to Li Lingxi in the chariot, but she still didn't respond.

With this, he didn't dare to act rashly.

Although these elders secretly harbored some discontent towards Li Lingxi, she was still the sect leader of the Divine Dan Sect.

When Dantai Mingjing announced its return, they still didn't dare to act out of line.

Even though the Flame Space was almost as important as the shattered world, they wouldn't do anything without Li Lingxi's orders.

"Did you really only give that guy a strand of Primordial Ice Essence yesterday?"

Upon receiving Zhou Daoqi's message again, Li Lingxi's expression became even more complicated.

Shuang Jiang looked at her and asked, "You were there, weren't you? And is there any point in me hiding it from you?

What I'm more curious about is what kind of power was flowing around him earlier?

That should be the fundamental reason for his rapid rise in status."

After a pause, Shuang Jiang continued, "But isn't this even better for you?

With such means, he and Dantai Ling'er have once again secured the first and second places, completely suppressing the Tian Lin from the Emperor Realm.

In this way, the ancient agreement is as good as won by the Divine Dan Sect.

And given the current state of the cultivation world, perhaps this grand alchemy meeting should end after this round."

Upon hearing Shuang Jiang's words, Li Lingxi nodded solemnly.

"Indeed, life is unpredictable. Some things never go according to plan.

Who would have thought that the Divine Shepherd Sect would rush to their doom at this time?"

...

Su Jingzhen continued to use Deep Sea Netherflame to clear the path.

With the clear sense of perception, he soon found another special heavenly fire.

In front of Su Jingzhen and Little Ling was a flame as black as ink.

Just like the Deep Sea Netherflame, this flame also had a thousand-zhang vacuum around it.

However, the energy within this thousand-zhang area was extremely strange, filled with a dark and sinister aura.

"This is... the Nine Nether Fiend Fire!

A flame that is said to be born only in the darkest, most sinister, and most evil places in the cultivation world.

It can also be called a malevolent fire.

Why is it that the two flames I've encountered are both of this type?"

Su Jingzhen muttered to himself, furrowing his brows.

The Deep Sea Netherflame, originating from the depths of the sea, was also aimed at the soul, and it wasn't exactly a righteous force.

And this Nine Nether Fiend Fire was even more so.

Such dark flames were not very common in the cultivation world, yet he had encountered two in a row, which felt somewhat strange.

"Brother Su, you are originally a demon cultivator, right?"

At this moment, Little Ling chuckled beside him.

Su Jingzhen was momentarily stunned, then his lips curled into a smile as he realized the truth in her words.

"That's true."

He had always accepted his identity as a demon cultivator.

In fact, he had even enjoyed the thrill of killing during previous battles.

So deep down, he knew that he had a natural affinity for such dark and sinister forces.

According to their information, the Nine Nether Fiend Fire was indeed suitable for demon cultivators.

Its dark and explosive nature made it less suitable for alchemy, but an excellent tool for combat.

For this reason, very few in the Divine Dan Sect had attempted to subdue it over the long years.

"Little Ling, wait for me here."

After telling Little Ling, Su Jingzhen didn't hesitate and stepped forward to the Nine Nether Fiendfire.

In terms of rank, the Nine Nether Fiendfire was similar to the Deep Sea Netherflame, so Su Jingzhen used the same method: suppressing it with the power of the World Source.

Even though the Nine Nether Fiendfire was violent, it couldn't resist.

After Su Jingzhen approached it, it struggled only briefly before submitting.

Once collected, Su Jingzhen moved it to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, where Little Green effortlessly replicated it.

Su Jingzhen and the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss both benefited from it, but it once again left countless members of the Divine Dan Sect feeling resentful.

Although the Nine Nether Fiendfire was useless to 99% of the Divine Dan Sect members, and they had neither the qualifications nor the strength to claim it, it was still part of the Divine Dan Sect's assets.

Seeing it taken by an outsider like Su Jingzhen was deeply distressing.

Su Jingzhen could probably guess the expressions of the Divine Dan Sect members outside, but he didn't care.

After briefly experiencing the power of the Nine Nether Fiend Fire, Su Jingzhen was quite satisfied.

Then he placed it in his Tanzhong acupoint, just like the others.

He didn't choose other human secret repositories because he had an expectation.

He compared his Tanzhong acupoint to a Gu jar, and the Flesh and Blood Fire, Deep Sea Netherflame, and Nine Nether Fiendfire within it to the Gu insects in his plan.

If they could undergo some kind of mutation together, it would undoubtedly be stronger than the individual flames.

From his previous life, Su Jingzhen had understood a principle: Skills are about quality, not quantity.

So even though he had received many inheritances, including powerful offensive techniques, he hadn't been very interested in learning them all.

Instead, he had stuck to the principle of "What's suitable is good, what's enough is enough".

The fact proved that the techniques he had been using had become increasingly refined, bringing him more and more surprises.

In his opinion, the same applied to the flames.

It wasn't about having more; it was about creating something stronger and more advanced through fusion.

Su Jingzhen believed that his many human secret repositories and the high-level Flesh and Blood Fire he had cultivated provided an excellent foundation.

What he needed to do now was to find and collect the other high-level Heavenly Fires in this Flame Space.

With this in mind, his gaze shifted to Little Ling.

"Little Ling, are you still holding up? The temperature here is rising."

As time passed, the temperature in the flame space continued to rise.

By now, there were less than five hundred of the original thousand participants left.

Su Jingzhen, protected by Flesh and Blood Fire, Deep Sea Netherflame, and Nine Nether Fiendfire, was unaffected, but he was concerned that Little Ling might suddenly struggle to endure.

However, she showed a calm smile.

"Don't worry, Brother Su. This temperature is no problem for me."

Then, with graceful poise, she continued to follow beside Su Jingzhen.

"Let's pick up the pace a bit."

Su Jingzhen remembered the second round, where he had only collected three or four floating islands in the shattered world before being forcibly removed.

Now that he had collected two high-level Heavenly Fires within the Flame Space, Su Jingzhen worried that the Divine Dan Sect might repeat the same tactics as before.

After all, his actions were still being broadcast live.

With this in mind, Little Ling and Su Jingzhen accelerated to their full speed inside the Flame Space.

Protected by the vacuum zones created by the Deep Sea Netherflame and Nine Nether Fiendfire, the fireballs avoided them as they flew by.

They encountered no obstacles along the way.

In less than the time it took to burn a stick of incense, they passed through another layer of fire walls and found themselves in front of another thousand-zhang vacuum zone.

In the center of the vacuum, a golden flame floated silently in the air.

It radiated an aura of supreme holiness!

Judging by the size of the vacuum zone it created, this Golden Flame was more advanced than the Deep Sea Netherflame and Nine Nether Fiendfire.

Its aura was completely different from the previous two.

"This is... the Luminous Crimson Gold Flame!"

After a brief identification, both Su Jingzhen and Little Ling recognized it.

Their expressions became even more excited.

This was also a rare high-level heavenly fire, with extremely stringent conditions for its birth. In addition, the Luminous Crimson Gold Flame provided significant improvements in alchemy.

It was undoubtedly one of the most coveted flames for any alchemist.

Su Jingzhen and Little Ling instinctively exchanged glances.

In their hearts, they wondered what the Divine Dan Sect's higher-ups were doing.

How could they leave such a flame here? It was truly incompetent.

If Zhou Daoqi and the other elders knew what Su Jingzhen was thinking, they might be so angry that they would spit blood.

Outside, Zhou Daoqi and the other elders of the Divine Dan Sect looked at each other, their faces filled with anxiety.

"The Luminous Crimson Gold Flame... I personally tried to subdue it recently, but I failed.

That guy shouldn't be able to take it, right?"

"The Luminous Crimson Gold Flame is one of the highest level flames in the flame space. If it still can't resist and gets taken by him, this would be too bizarre."

"That shouldn't happen. I have some faith in the Luminous Crimson Gold Flame."

"..."

The elders muttered to themselves, but it seemed more like self-reassurance.
