The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Bai Suzhen was entwined around Su Jingzhen and had already opened her mouth.

A white energy sphere condensed within it.

Originally, she wanted to help Su Jingzhen resist the fire attack just now.

But at this time, she did not choose to activate it.

Bai Suzhen’s sapphire eyes were similarly fixated on the black brick in Su Jingzhen’s hand, utterly dumbfounded.

Cultivators wield all sorts of strange weapons, so Bai Suzhen hadn’t paid much attention to the oddity of Su Jingzhen’s weapon at first.

But now, even Bai Suzhen was genuinely shocked by the black brick in Su Jingzhen’s hand.

Although that fire was merely a reflexive attack from the Fire Dragon cub, in Bai Suzhen’s view, it was not something an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator could withstand.

“You… What kind of divine weapon is this?”

However, Su Jingzhen did not respond to Bai Suzhen’s question at this time.

His mind was fully immersed in the black brick,

After carefully sensing the hint of longing it had just expressed.

Su Jingzhen’s excitement had reached its peak.

He had a premonition that today, he might finally unravel the secret of the black brick.

He had possessed this black brick for a long time, and it had always been his most handy weapon.

Over such a long period, Su Jingzhen had almost given up hope of discovering the secrets hidden within the black brick. He had come to terms with the possibility that it might not matter.

But now, this sudden change had reignited his hope.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen gripped the black brick in his right hand, channeling all the blood energy from his Labor Palace acupoint into it.

The black brick readily absorbed all the energy,

Just as it always had, without any resistance.

However, this time Su Jingzhen felt that the black brick had become a bit more proactive in absorbing his blood energy.

That sense of longing still lingered.

Su Jingzhen realized that the black brick was filled with desire for the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix before him.

Yet once again, he found himself at a loss, unsure of how to proceed.

He couldn’t just smash them with the brick, right?

Even though they were divine beast cubs, it would be a huge loss if they were damaged.

Bai Suzhen was growing more and more excited.

She felt that the surprises Su Jingzhen could bring her were only going to increase.

At this moment, Bai Suzhen offered no advice, leaving the matter entirely to Su Jingzhen.

As Su Jingzhen hesitated, he noticed a burst of dark light emanating from the black brick.

And there was a very powerful energy that seemed to be pulling Su Jingzhen’s hand forward.

The direction it pointed was precisely toward the Fire Dragon that Su Jingzhen had previously tried to touch.

“This…”

His heart stirred once more.

He realized that the black brick in his hand might be far more powerful than he had ever imagined.

Holding the black brick, he slowly reached toward the crimson light cluster.

As he got closer to the Fire Dragon, the dark light emanating from the black brick grew even more intense.

The energy waves it emitted became incredibly vast,

Seemingly not much weaker than the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix.

No, it felt even more sacred than these two divine beast cubs.

“This is a real treasure!”

He couldn’t help but mutter to himself.

From the very beginning, he knew that the black brick Feng Qingya had given him was no ordinary item.

But he never expected it to be this powerful.

After all, this was the legendary Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix, bona fide divine beasts.

Su Jingzhen’s hand began to tremble, as if he could hardly hold the black brick steady.

As the dark light continued to invade, the crimson light cluster began to tremble visibly in front of both Bai Suzhen and Su Jingzhen.

The dragon’s might was overwhelming.

“Roar!”

Another high-pitched dragon’s roar echoed from within the light cluster.

But it was just a single roar.

In the next moment, the crimson light cluster was completely overshadowed by the light emanating from the black brick in Su Jingzhen’s hand.

In an instant, the dragon’s might that had filled the room vanished completely.

Both Su Jingzhen and Bai Suzhen turned their gazes toward the source.

The crimson light cluster had completely disappeared from the room.

Not a trace remained!

At the same time, Su Jingzhen felt a sudden warmth in the black brick he was holding.

He stood there, stunned.

He kept rubbing his eyes,

But no matter how hard he rubbed, the reality that the Fire Dragon had completely vanished couldn’t be changed.

“Did it… Was it destroyed by the black brick, or absorbed by it?”

Su Jingzhen brought the black brick back for a closer look, but aside from the warmth he felt, there seemed to be no other changes to it.

He wasn’t even sure what had just happened.

But he had a vague feeling that the Fire Dragon hadn’t been destroyed by the black brick.

It felt much like the times when he had slain those demonic beasts, and their beast cores were automatically purified.

He felt that the Flame Dragon now had the same violent intent contained in the crystal cores of those monsters in the past.

It was absorbed by Black Brick in a way that he couldn’t understand yet.

“What exactly is this thing?”

Bai Suzhen’s voice rang out again, still full of astonishment.

She was utterly curious.

Su Jingzhen frowned in response.

He was just as puzzled.

Without any hesitation, he presented the black brick to Bai Suzhen.

This time, he didn’t hold anything back and directly explained the origin of the black brick.

After hearing Su Jingzhen’s account, Bai Suzhen was even more amazed.

“Your luck… I don’t even know what to say…”

After a long silence, Bai Suzhen sighed in admiration.

This black brick was undoubtedly a treasure beyond her imagination.

And considering that he had encountered her along with the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix cubs, it was hard for Bai Suzhen to believe that a normal cultivator could experience so many extraordinary events in less than three months.

Then, with a rather serious tone, Bai Suzhen advised, “You need to be more careful when you go out from now on.

Even though you have the Heavenly Dragon Scale, it would be wise to obtain a defensive artifact as well. I fear you might attract heavenly retribution at any moment.

Just make sure you don’t drag me into it when that happens.”

The seriousness of her words almost made Su Jingzhen burst out laughing.

But from Bai Suzhen’s perspective, water overflowing and a full moon waning were natural phenomena, and when someone’s luck reached an extreme, they were bound to face divine punishment.

Ignoring Bai Suzhen’s words,

Su Jingzhen glanced at the black brick again, then at the remaining icy blue light cluster in the room.

“No matter where the Fire Dragon went, it must be connected to the black brick.

As for the Ice Phoenix, we don’t have a proper method to form a contract with it either.

So, let’s try the same approach again. Maybe this time, we can see exactly what happened to the Fire Dragon.”

Hearing this, Bai Suzhen nodded, not saying anything more.

On one hand, she knew their time was indeed running out.

Secondly, she felt that Su Jingzhen’s method was the most correct.

After all, in Bai Suzhen’s eyes, Su Jingzhen was undeniably a person of great fortune.

Sometimes, such people’s casual choices could surpass the careful deliberations of others countless times over.

With those words, Su Jingzhen, not one to waste time, took action.

The Laogong acupoint in his right hand erupted once again, and a surge of blood energy instantly flowed into the black brick.

He felt the black brick’s longing once more.

This time, it was clearly yearning for the Ice Phoenix.

As this desire was transmitted, the black brick even took on a dark red hue, as if a fire was burning within.

Su Jingzhen took a deep breath and once again slowly brought the black brick closer to the ice-blue light cluster.

“Chirp!”

The Ice Phoenix, which had been calm all along, suddenly sensed a threat.

A clear cry echoed as a wave of ice-blue cold air burst forth from the light cluster.

It was much like the flames from the Fire Dragon earlier.

This was the Ice Phoenix’s instinctive attack.

Bai Suzhen, watching from the side, was filled with anxiety, fearing any unexpected events.

At the same time, all her attention was focused on the black brick, eager to see how it would replicate its earlier feat.

Just like before, as the black brick neared the ice-blue light cluster, a brilliant black light emerged from it.

This black light quickly overshadowed the Ice Phoenix’s icy blue glow.

When the black light completely enveloped the ice-blue light cluster, Su Jingzhen felt a mysterious and powerful force surge from within the brick.

Immediately, the ice-blue light cluster, representing the Ice Phoenix, vanished on the spot.

In the room, aside from the terrifying pressure emanating from Bai Suzhen, the dragon and phoenix’s presence had completely disappeared.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen clearly felt the black brick in his hand alternate between cold and hot, mirroring the temperature fluctuations in the room just moments ago.

Feeling this, he confirmed once more that the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix had indeed been absorbed by the black brick.

As for the principles behind it, he was completely in the dark.

With this realization, the initial sense of gain and loss returned.

“Are these two little brats just going to disappear like this? Did we do all this for nothing?”

Su Jingzhen scratched his head and muttered instinctively.

He was genuinely nervous.

Bai Suzhen stepped down from his body, still maintaining her true form as a white python.

Her sapphire eyes were fixed on the black brick in Su Jingzhen’s hand.

Then, Su Jingzhen felt a powerful mental wave emanating from Bai Suzhen, surging directly into the black brick.

He knew this was Bai Suzhen’s formidable divine consciousness.

This divine consciousness lingered for a while, but Bai Suzhen still found nothing.

“The alternating cold and hot aura on this brick is undoubtedly the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix.

As for their current state, I have no idea either.”

Bai Suzhen’s tone was full of seriousness.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen wasn’t the only one feeling anxious and uncertain.
