The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 948: Clues to the Emperor Realm
Chapter 948: Clues to the Emperor Realm
"Get it done quickly and start refining the pill," Shuang Jiang said as soon as Li Lingxi returned to her palace. She had already appeared and extracted Qiu Yaoyao's soul once again.
Seeing Shuang Jiang in this state, Li Lingxi's eyes flickered with curiosity.
"Are you really not going to see him? Are you playing so hard to get?" Li Lingxi teased as she walked over to Shuang Jiang.
"I will see him, but not now," Shuang Jiang replied coldly. Afterwards, she pointed to Qiu Yaoyao's soul.
"Concentrate on the task at hand.
It's been delayed for too long. Her soul is now in its best condition, waiting for your Heavenly Dragon Tribulation Pill.
After dealing with Qiu Yaoyao's matter, we still have to deal with the Emperor Realm.
Even though you won this time and they agreed to honor the old pact, their arrogance remains unchanged. There will be no shortage of trouble.
Besides, I have a score to settle from the past."
Li Lingxi pouted but didn't say anything.
She immediately took out a green alchemy furnace and sent a sacred purple flame into it with her palm. She quickly entered the state of refining the elixir.
During this process, Li Lingxi was completely different from her usual playful demeanor, exuding the aura of a master alchemist.
...
At this time, only Su Jingzhen was left in the square in front of Li Lingxi's palace.
He looked around somewhat aimlessly, surrounded by magnificent buildings but devoid of people.
After all, this was the core area of the Divine Dan Sect's higher-ups, and only a few were qualified to live near Li Lingxi.
Su Jingzhen didn't have high expectations for his residence.
He casually chose a relatively exquisite green palace, left his mark inside, and it became his.
There was no need for any defenses here.
Ordinary people couldn't reach this place, and being so close to Li Lingxi, if something happened to him, the Divine Dan Sect would likely be in serious trouble.
Just as he finished inspecting the palace, Su Jingzhen suddenly heard Bai Suzhen's voice in his ear.
"Without any surprises, you'll probably come into contact with the Emperor Realm soon."
After eliminating the assassin sent by Mu Qingshi, Bai Suzhen had remained silent.
Her sudden appearance took Su Jingzhen by surprise.
"Suzhen, have you heard of the Emperor Realm?"
Bai Suzhen mentioning the Emperor Realm was definitely unusual.
Earlier, he had forgotten to ask Bai Suzhen about it, as even after breaking through to the True Immortal Realm, she still hadn't fully recovered to her peak.
At the very least, she was a well-traveled and knowledgeable person.
"What do you mean, 'heard of'? My connection to the Emperor Realm runs deep."
Su Jingzhen didn't notice the killing intent in Bai Suzhen's tone.
Instead, he felt a surge of excitement.
"Could it be that you're also a big shot who escaped from the Emperor Realm?"
Since learning that the Emperor Realm had overthrown the Divine Shepherd Realm overnight, it had become a symbol of power in Su Jingzhen's mind.
At least until he had fully matured.
"I didn't come from there, but I almost entered the Emperor Realm.
If not for my good fortune, I might have disappeared from this world thousands of years ago. You wouldn't have met me at Clear Wind Mountain, and none of this would have happened."
As she spoke, Bai Suzhen's tone grew even colder.
Su Jingzhen was momentarily stunned, finally picking up on the killing intent in her words.
He also realized the truth.
"Suzhen, you... was your previous state caused by someone from the Emperor Realm?"
Bai Suzhen's voice continued, "Three thousand years ago, when I had just failed to break through from the peak of Immortal Lord to Immortal King, I was at my weakest. It was then that the despicable Sword Master of the Emperor Realm took advantage of my vulnerability, intending to make me his mount!
We fought for several days and nights, but due to my severe injuries, I was ultimately no match for him. He cut me in half with a single sword stroke and sealed me inside Clear Wind Mountain!
Originally, he planned to come back later to claim me, but after I was sealed, an unknown amount of time passed. The area around Clear Wind Mountain seemed to be surrounded by a mysterious barrier.
After that, the Sword Master never reappeared. I suspect that he might have lost track of the exact location.
Later, when you arrived at the Yunmeng Goddess, I gradually realized that it must have been the Yunmeng Goddess who placed that barrier over the area, which is why he couldn't find me.
As a result, I remained in that sealed, dormant state and survived until you came and allowed me to be reborn."
"Had it not been for him, after I recovered and returned to my peak, I would surely have broken through to the Immortal King!
This mortal grudge is something I will never forget!"
Bai Suzhen's tone remained calm, but Su Jingzhen could feel her killing intent simmering just beneath the surface.
At this moment, Su Jingzhen was utterly shocked.
He had never expected that at her peak, Bai Suzhen would be capable of challenging the Immortal King Realm.
He also hadn't realized that Bai Suzhen's connection to the Emperor Realm was so deep.
After the initial shock, he suddenly had an idea.
Bai Suzhen had mentioned that she was cut in half and sealed by the Sword Master.
The strange place where Bai Suzhen had been sealed was a massive sword scar!
This meant that the sword scar must have been left by the Sword Master, and Zhang Xiu had disappeared from there as well!
At that moment, Su Jingzhen was almost certain that Zhang Xiu must have some connection to the Sword Master!
At this moment, Su Jingzhen directly manifested the high-level sword intent from his Sea of Consciousness.
This was a gift that Shuang Jiang had left for him before she left.
He was now 100% certain that this sword intent had been left by the Sword Master when he cut Bai Suzhen.
"Suzhen, is this sword intent left by the Sword Master?"
Bai Suzhen's voice echoed again, "Who else could it be?"
Su Jingzhen had possessed this sword intent since Bai Suzhen's rebirth, and she had known about it.
Su Jingzhen's breathing became rapid, and the gentle image of Zhang Xiu suddenly appeared in his mind. freewёbn૦νeɭ.com
Finally, there was a clue!
He was almost incoherent with excitement.
"Suzhen, why... why didn't you tell me earlier?"
To his surprise, the clue he had been desperately searching for was known to someone close to him.
Bai Suzhen spoke again, "What good would it have done to tell you?
Even now, with your cultivation at the second level of the Body Venerable Realm, you're still just a small fish in the Emperor Realm.
Don't even think about confronting the Sword Master, you don't even know how to enter the Emperor Realm.
And I haven't recovered to my peak yet, so revenge can wait.
Besides, at your current stage, the Sword Master's sword intent is actually very useful for you.
That's why I never mentioned it to you. Telling you earlier would have only added unnecessary pressure."
After a pause, Bai Suzhen continued, "And today, I'm telling you this not because I want you to go after the Sword Master. Thousands of years have passed, and with that guy's talent, he's likely at least a high-level Immortal King by now.
He might even have touched the edge of the Immortal Emperor realm.
I just want you to keep an eye out for any information about the Sword Master when you come in contact with the Emperor Realm. It's very important to me.
Also, just to remind you, I openly helped you before, and there aren't many Chaos Celestial Serpents in the world. That old bastard has probably already noticed you.
There's a possibility that he might target you because of this.
If you want to enter the Emperor Realm when you are not strong enough, try to stay with the little girl who followed you earlier."
