The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 136: Unexpected Breakthrough



Chapter 136: Unexpected Breakthrough

“It’s over… I’ve completely offended this girl.”

Seeing Luo Yuebai leave just like that.

The old man had a face full of dejection.

But then, after a moment’s thought, he felt perplexed.

“I admit that this kid’s progress in orthodox Body Cultivation has been very good, and his abilities in various aspects are quite outstanding.”

“But… is it really that important?””

At this moment, he had a feeling of being utterly baffled.

But after muttering for a while, a terrifying possibility suddenly came to his mind.

He suddenly froze in place.

“That kid… that kid is quite handsome, could it be, could it be that this girl has feelings for him…?”

“Hiss!”

Thinking of this, the old man suddenly took a deep breath.

And the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.

Only then did he realize the gravity of his mistake.

“I really deserve to die!”

In the canyon, it was as quiet as ever.

Especially in the peculiar place where Su Jingzhen was located.

There wasn’t even the sound of insects or birds.

The thick mist here still carried a sharp sword intent.

And at this moment, not only was the rich spiritual energy invading Su Jingzhen’s body.

Even the special energy he had previously collected with the “Python Scales Power” was continuously pouring in.

Yet, Su Jingzhen still had not awakened.

In this state, it soon became the next morning.

Although his wounds were not completely healed.

His condition had improved significantly.

They were all dry scabs now.

“Ah~ it hurts!”

When the first ray of sunlight from the eastern sky shone on the canyon, though it was still dark in this peculiar place.

Su Jingzhen finally woke up.

Pain!

The first sensation upon regaining consciousness was the excruciating pain radiating from his entire body!

At this moment, Su Jingzhen struggled to turn his body slightly.

From lying face down to lying flat on his back.

Looking at the mist swirling above his head, a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.

“That old guy is really strong.”

“The last two attacks he launched at me didn’t seem like Golden Core stage techniques.”

“Damn… maybe he’s a Nascent Soul old monster.”

“But, it’s good to be alive!”

No matter what, he survived!

That was the most gratifying thing.

In his current state, he could only let his body slowly recover on its own.

He couldn’t help but sort through the details of his escape from the moment he encountered the man in black.

As he thought about it, his brow suddenly furrowed.

“From the meeting point to this canyon, the distance was long enough.”

“It seems that the old guy was deliberately toying with me, or perhaps testing me.”

“Except for the final two extremely powerful attacks, every previous strike, although capable of injuring me, was never meant to take my life!”

In the urgency of the previous situation, he hadn’t had time to think about many things.

He couldn’t pay attention to those details, focusing only on escaping with his life.

“Thinking about it this way, the old man’s main purpose was probably just to test me.”

“Could he be from the Evil Moon Sect?”

Su Jingzhen was not stupid; with a little thought, he could figure things out.

Today, Luo Yuebai had announced with such fanfare that he would be the Chief Acolyte of the Evil Moon Sect’s Jiang branch.

And she had solemnly stated that he would have the rights of a vice sect leader.

This was a big deal for the entire Evil Moon Sect.

It was normal for the main sect to take notice and for some important figures to personally test him.

Moreover, Su Jingzhen had no doubt that if he hadn’t been able to withstand those probing attacks and had been killed, then he would simply be dead.

“Everything still depends on one’s own strength.”

Even if he figured it out, what could he do? He could only sigh.

In the world of cultivation, strength was ultimately what mattered.

As he was reflecting on this, golden text suddenly flashed before his eyes.

?Time left until the host’s Dantian shatters completely: 488 days?

?Daily fixed points: Shuang Jiang: 15, Zhang Xiu: 4, Feng Qingya: 2, Luo Yuebai: 2?

?Remaining usable points: 45?

The fixed points arrived as usual, still 23 points.

This did lift his spirits a bit.

But Su Jingzhen was now a bit curious.

“Do the cultivation boosts from those who have a connection with me only change when they are near me?”

“Shuang Jiang has been gone for some days, and given her ability to wipe out so many high-level members of the Huayang Sect.”

“Her cultivation boost should be more than five times by now.”

However, regarding the golden finger, he had only a partial understanding since its activation.

At this point, these doubts were destined to remain just doubts.

As he was pondering this, half a day had passed.

Su Jingzhen’s body gradually recovered; although his wounds weren’t fully healed, they had improved a lot.

At least he could now engage in light normal activities without any issue.

At this moment, although he hadn’t started practicing the “Python Scales Power,” he felt that his physical body and internal organs seemed to have strengthened by a level.

Although his overall condition was still not great, he could definitely feel that his physical body had indeed become stronger.

Startled, he immediately called up the sub-section for body cultivation.

?Body Cultivation: Three Secret Chambers Unlocked!

Physical Body Level: Flesh Body Spiritual Embryo (Fourth Layer)?

Just seeing this entry made Su Jingzhen completely freeze.

“I actually broke through to the fourth layer of Flesh Body Spiritual Embryo!”

He muttered to himself, unable to contain his joy.

However, after calming down, he could understand it.

After all, during his escape yesterday, he had drunk one-third of a bottle of body-refining liquid.

And in the end, he had withstood a strike of the man in black’s lightning power.

Although this thunderous force was violent and had immense destructive power.

But if one could really withstand it, it could be considered the strongest external force for body refinement.

Although those two strikes of lightning power had severely injured him, they undoubtedly also tempered his body.

And he had also consumed two Breaking Through Adversity Pills.

After all, his level of Flesh Body Spiritual Embryo was only at the initial stage in the orthodox body refinement system.

With all these factors combined, breaking through a layer was indeed very normal.

In fact, looking at it this way, it felt like he broke through too few layers.

“Hehe, for body refinement, these past few days have really been a break.”

“I wonder if I can try to refine pills in my current state.”

After muttering to himself once again, Su Jingzhen directly took out the Black Mountain pill furnace from his storage bracelet.

He then took out ingredients for ten more Breaking Through Adversity Pills.

Since he had nothing else to do, if he could successfully refine them, perhaps his injuries could heal even faster.
