The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 542: Collecting Spirit Veins



The moment the terrifying energy appeared, Su Jingzhen’s storage ring glowed.

The black brick was already in his hand.

All nine human secret repositories instantly erupted.

The blood energy was completely channeled into the black brick.

Without hesitation, he swung the brick at the spike.

The moment the spike attacked him, he had already felt the intense energy had reached the Soul Formation stage.

“Boom!”

A dull sound echoed, and Su Jingzhen took two steps back.

The spike was also broken, with black blood oozing from the crack.

“What a powerful force!”

Su Jingzhen was slightly shocked.

Previously, when he clashed with the Peerless Elder’s Peerless Fist, he hadn’t been pushed back this far.

But before he could think, the ground in front of him completely split open.

Hundreds of spikes appeared.

A massive black spiked ball, or rather a black hedgehog, appeared in front of Su Jingzhen.

Its aura reached the late stage of Soul Formation.

Its blood-red eyes glared at Su Jingzhen as if ready to devour him.

“The Peerless Sect actually has a guardian beast of this level.

I wonder what kind of creature it is and how it tastes?”

After another sigh, Su Jingzhen looked at the black hedgehog.

His mouth was already watering.

His previous life experiences told him that some things that looked strange might taste exceptionally good.

Like crabs and crayfish.

In his previous life, someone had said that the first person to eat a crab was a brave warrior. In this cultivation world, he naturally wanted to be that warrior.

After all, this creature was a Level Five Great Beast, comparable to a cultivator at the Soul Formation level.

Hearing Su Jingzhen’s mumbling, Bai Suzhen who was by his side transmitted to him again, “If you want to eat it, this creature is indeed very nutritious.

But if you can learn the Heavenly Dragon Race’s ‘Dragon Control Art’, you can also tame it and make it a very useful helper.”

Upon hearing Bai Suzhen’s words, Su Jingzhen’s face showed another hint of confusion.

“Suzhen, are you saying that this black hedgehog-like creature also has dragon blood?”

Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but ask.

“No… Do you really think that the Heavenly Dragon Race’s ‘Dragon Control Art’ only works on beasts with dragon blood?

Powerful Heavenly Dragon Race members often have more than one contracted beast; there aren’t that many dragon-blooded beasts for them to contract.”

Upon hearing Bai Suzhen’s words, Su Jingzhen’s heart was once again shaken.

He became even more interested in the Dragon Control Art of the Heavenly Dragon Race.

While he was talking to Bai Suzhen, the Peerless Sect’s Black Hedgehog suddenly curled up into a ball.

Its several-zhang-long body immediately rolled towards Su Jingzhen, its spikes like the sharpest weapons.

Its fighting style was quite primitive and straightforward.

Considering its massive size, Su Jingzhen didn’t dare to be careless.

The Heavenly Dragon Scales were instantly activated.

While maximizing his defense, he swung the brick once more, channeling powerful blood energy that formed a dragon shape.

It immediately collided with the black hedgehog.

The immense dragon aura emanating from Su Jingzhen was already able to suppress it somewhat.

The dragon-shaped energy powerfully struck the black hedgehog’s massive body.

Dozens of its spikes were suddenly shattered.

Its aura didn’t seem to weaken.

Instead, the recoil force pushed Su Jingzhen back a few more steps.

One was a Beast, the other was a Body Cultivator; their fighting styles were almost identical.

This was a pure battle of strength, and both of them were known for their physical prowess.

“Interesting. It seems that the ones I defeated earlier were just too weak in pure strength.

I can’t completely defeat a pure body cultivator of the same level, or a beast like this that excels in strength.”

In this clash with the Black Hedgehog, Su Jingzhen’s understanding of himself deepened.

He also realized more deeply how important it was to learn a body cultivation technique.

If he could channel his strength skillfully, his combat effectiveness and the efficiency of his power could be further improved.

“First, I’ll take care of you, Blackie. If this spirit vein satisfies Little Green, I might be able to get some powerful techniques from the ancient era of Body Cultivation.

Blackie, don’t struggle. Let me try your taste!”

Su Jingzhen sneered again.

The Netherworld Ghost Technique was activated, and he no longer held back.

Leaving a few afterimages behind, Su Jingzhen had already rushed to the creature’s side.

Three or four dragon-shaped energy blasts roared out.

The sharp spikes on the black hedgehog’s body crackled and shattered.

The spikes broke off one by one.

Out of the hundreds of spikes, two thirds had been broken by Su Jingzhen.

The aura of the creature finally weakened.

It no longer remained in its ball shape.

Its head emerged from the black spikes, its blood-red eyes showing a hint of fear.

The next moment, the ground beneath it suddenly shook.

Clearly, it wanted to escape.

“You want to leave now? It might be a little too late!”

Seeing this, Su Jingzhen chuckled again.

Afterimages appeared at his original location.

Su Jingzhen had already reached the underside of the massive creature.

Standing underneath the black hedgehog, he didn’t hesitate to strike it with another powerful brick blow.

The blow landed squarely on the hedgehog’s head, sending its several-zhang-long body flying high.

When it hit the ground, its aura was completely gone.

The head hadn’t been shattered, but everything inside had been destroyed.

After delivering the fatal blow, Su Jingzhen walked over to the hedgehog’s corpse.

Suddenly, he saw a stream of gray energy being sucked into the black brick.

Su Jingzhen’s expression tightened.

In the next instant, his divine consciousness, which was still within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, expanded.

It immediately detected a surge of vital energy in a corner of the dense mist.

The mist twisted and formed the shape of the black hedgehog he had just killed.

And its aura had also reached the fifth level.

Su Jingzhen’s divine consciousness scanned again.

He found that this creature, just like the phantom beasts before it, appeared here almost as a solid entity.

This was not a soul.

It was a fully replicated and resurrected entity.

However, the red glow in the hedgehog’s eyes had disappeared.

It showed a clear gaze.

When it saw Su Jingzhen’s consciousness descending, it showed a hint of fear in its eyes.

“The Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss is truly extraordinary. The beasts I kill seem to be reborn here.

Perhaps if I understand the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss further and gain more authority, I might be able to lead these resurrected beasts into battle.”

A thought suddenly appeared in his mind, and his eyes showed a fervent desire.

He felt that this might actually become a reality.

While he was thinking about it, Su Jingzhen had already put away the black brick.

Then, with a flash of light from his storage ring, the corpse of the black hedgehog was collected.

No one could stop him from entering the white pagoda now.

Su Jingzhen pushed open the door.

A dense stream of spiritual energy suddenly rushed towards him.

All Su Jingzhen could see was a white mist made up entirely of spiritual energy.

The inside of the pagoda was quite spacious. He walked to the center and found only a dark hole.

The spiritual energy was clearly emanating from this hole.

As he approached the hole, Little Green, who was rooted in the cave’s spiritual spring within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, suddenly emitted a wave of intense desire.

The wave of desire that swept towards Su Jingzhen also carried the same permission that Little Green had given him before.

Su Jingzhen’s lips curled into a smile. Without hesitation, he jumped into the black hole.

“I wonder what level this spirit vein has reached.”

After muttering to himself again, Su Jingzhen had already reached the bottom of the cave.

It was brighter than he had imagined, unlike the darkness he had expected.

The walls were embedded with countless spirit stones.

Most of them were low-grade Spirit Stones, with a few mid-grade ones.

Spirit Stones served as both currency and a direct source of spiritual energy for cultivators.

Places with spirit veins often had associated spirit stone deposits.

Su Jingzhen couldn’t help but wonder. As long as the Peerless Sect didn’t bring destruction upon themselves, with a spirit vein like this, they could stand firm in Qingzhou for a thousand years before the spiritual energy here and the spirit stone deposits were exhausted.

“Unfortunately, it’s all fate.

I’ll just have to accept it.”

Su Jingzhen chuckled.

Without hesitation, he lifted the black brick high, from which a strong black light suddenly erupted.

Where the light spread out, everything disappeared, just like the spirit vein on Clear Wind Mountain.

Not a single spirit stone was left.

The spiritual energy there seemed to be completely depleted, becoming barren and lifeless.

On the other hand, in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, the mountain that Little Green had evolved saw the spiritual energy in its cave rise to a new level.

The walls were covered with spirit stones taken from the Peerless Sect.

They had directly moved the entire spirit stone deposit here.

The vitality there also became more intense.

The black hedgehog that had just resurrected in the dense fog arrived at the foot of the mountain.

It burrowed into the ground and settled into a cave, seemingly absorbing the spiritual energy here.

With an additional spiritual vein, it seemed to speed up the restoration process of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

Su Jingzhen also noticed that the bud on the only leaf of Little Green that was rooted in the Spiritual Source seemed to have opened a little more.

Perhaps with a few more spiritual veins, its second leaf would fully unfold.

“In that case, let’s go to the next place.

There should be a few more spiritual veins of this level.”
