The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 400: Shedding Skin

Bai Ying was presented with a choice once again.

Perhaps last time, Bai Ying could have taken the initiative.

Perhaps she could have been strong.

But this time, Bai Qingshi took the initiative to become Shen Yifeng’s hostage.

It had completely put the Bai Family in a passive position.

If she didn’t want Bai Qingshi to die, the only option might be to cooperate with Shen Yifeng.

And this time, Shen Yifeng’s actions had once again shown Bai Ying the extent of his power.

Although Bai Qingshi was weak, he was still a genuine Nascent Soul mid-stage cultivator.

Yet, he hadn’t even managed to last a single round against Shen Yifeng.

Even if they all attacked together, the only ones who could truly be effective were Bai Ying and another Nascent Soul cultivator who hadn’t made a move.

Shen Yifeng could probably obliterate the rest of the younger generation with a single thought.

“What kind of cooperation do you want?”

After much deliberation, and glancing at Bai Qingshi kneeling before Shen Yifeng, Bai Ying asked with a hint of helplessness.

She had no other choice but to compromise.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on Shen Yifeng’s lips.

“It’s simple, as I said before, let’s work together to open this strange land.

After opening it, you might understand the meaning behind everything I have done.

This can also be considered an explanation for what I said before.”

Shen Yifeng’s tone was still confident.

Bai Ying looked at him, her expression serious, and said: “This time, I am willing to cooperate with you, Shen Yifeng.

But you need to swear by heaven.

After entering, we each rely on our own abilities. Whatever is inside, whoever obtains it belongs to them.

This is the consensus that should be reached by all cultivators exploring all ruins.”

As soon as Bai Ying finished speaking, Shen Yifeng didn’t hesitate at all. He pointed to the sky and then to the ground, making the highest level of oath.

For him, their main task this time was to find Su Jingzhen.

And they also believed that if there were any treasures inside the strange land, Su Jingzhen, who had been cultivating there for a long time, would have already obtained them all.

It was impossible for them to wait until they entered to explore.

Therefore, there was nothing wrong with him agreeing to the Bai family’s condition.

Seeing this, Bai Ying silently nodded.

Shen Yifeng didn’t hesitate either, and kicked Bai Qingshi back to the Bai Family crowd with one foot.

He could have killed Bai Qingshi earlier.

In that case, he might have to fight to the death with the group of Bai Family members in front of him.

This wasn’t the situation he wanted to see.

For Shen Yifeng and Luo Yuebai, if the Bai Family used their power well, they could be a formidable enemy.

After all, the Bai Family was considered a top power in Qingzhou.

Offending them for no reason wouldn’t benefit them in any way.

At this time, Shen Yifeng had only severed Bai Qingshi’s arm.

Although it had caused great damage to his cultivation base, he had spared his life.

After all, it was Bai Qingshi who took the initiative to attack Shen Yifeng, and now only one arm was broken. The Bai family should be grateful to Shen Yifeng for not killing him.

Bai Susu and the others quickly helped Bai Qingshi up.

The latter tapped a few times at the severed end of his right arm, then sat down in the nearby thick fog to begin recovering.

Bai Ying glanced at him without paying any attention. In her eyes, Bai Qingshi deserved it.

Her gaze returned to Shen Yifeng.

She said coldly: “The power on this barrier is quite strong.

Even if you and I join forces, we may not be able to forcefully open it.”

After speaking, she looked at Shen Yifeng again: “At your level, you must have already opened your Niwan Palace, right?

Since you have divine consciousness, perhaps you can help me find the weakest point of this barrier.”

Shen Yifeng nodded silently.

He wasn’t a Spiritual Cultivator, but his Niwan Palace had indeed been opened long ago.

His divine consciousness could also be used.

Immediately, the two stood silently before the barrier.

Their divine consciousness surged out from their Niwan Palaces.

They began to search for the weakest point of the barrier.

They didn’t waste their power aimlessly.

……

While Shen Yifeng and the Bai Family had briefly reached a cooperation.

In the center of the strange land, the big pit remained calm.

The black-robed man’s body had long since become stiff.

Su Jingzhen was also lying on the ground, silent.

However, his internal state was much better than before.

Relying on the blood energy continuously emanating from the seven Secret Repositories within him, and the vast yet gentle power transmitted by the giant python beside him, it should only be a matter of time for him to recover.

The sword energy that had been previously extremely sharp, almost solidifying into a tangible form, disappeared completely after being merged with the sword energy imprint within Su Jingzhen’s body.

It no longer manifested on him.

Not far from him, the giant python’s breath became increasingly stable.

Its ice-blue eyes opened from time to time.

However, the emotions within them remained a complex mix of hatred and gentleness.

But at a certain moment, the giant python’s eyes suddenly opened completely.

Immediately, its massive body began to tremble constantly.

As its forked tongue flicked in and out, a look of extreme pain flashed in its ice-blue eyes.

Its entire body, which was pitch black, suddenly churned. Starting from its back, the scales, as hard as iron, suddenly cracked open, revealing a gap.

As a vast amount of energy permeated, a white light flashed from the crack.

If Su Jingzhen’s consciousness had returned at this time, he would have been horrified to discover that the giant python was actually shedding its skin.

But for the giant python, this was a difficult and painful process.

However, if it successfully shed its skin, it would be a rebirth for it.

“Boom…”

However, just as the giant python’s shedding began, it suddenly sensed a loud boom from afar.

A wave of energy transmitted from the outside.

Although this energy wave was rather weak to it, it clearly felt it.

A look of anxiety flashed in its ice-blue eyes.

As a high-level monster, the giant python instinctively sensed a certain danger.

But at this time, Su Jingzhen beside it remained motionless.

The giant python’s shedding speed increased.

On the other side, Shen Yifeng and Bai Ying, after searching for a while, finally confirmed a weak point on the barrier that they considered to be the weakest.

Then the two of them launched an attack towards it.

The power of their attacks was not weak.

But after a single blow, the entire barrier only shook slightly, but it was not broken.

“It seems this barrier is stronger than we imagined,” Bai Ying said again.

Her tone was somewhat excited.

The stronger the barrier, the more likely it was that there were good things inside.

Shen Yifeng didn’t speak.

His expression became more and more serious.
