The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Xuening, be careful!”

The moment Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao felt the powerful aura, their expressions changed abruptly.

Before their voices could even finish, the space beside the Guiding Divine Flower suddenly twisted.

In an instant, an almost transparent, flowing-glass-like beast appeared.

A phantom beast!

Its aura was comparable to that of a Tribulation Realm cultivator!

Su Jingzhen was no stranger to this beast. Back on Clear Wind Mountain, he had hunted a Phantom Beast.

However, the one at Clear Wind Mountain was nothing compared to this one.

Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao’s power continued to increase.

Su Jingzhen, on the other hand, immediately protected Xuening.

The Guiding Divine Flower was indeed important to them, but Xuening’s safety was paramount.

In simple terms, the Guiding Divine Flower was just an added advantage.

But if anything happened to Xuening, it would be an unbearable loss.

After all, Xuening was only at the Soul Formation stage, and she was far too weak to face a Phantom Beast from the Tribulation Realm.

If the Phantom Beast were to harm her, Xuening’s life would be in grave danger.

While Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao were taking action, the Phantom Beast suddenly moved towards the Guiding Divine Flower.

The Phantom Beast was ethereal in nature, like flowing transparent glass.

Despite taking a direct hit from Qiu Yaoyao’s palm, it instantly reached the Guiding Divine Flower.

Then it opened its mouth and swallowed the Guiding Divine Flower as well as the ground around it.

The Phantom Beast seemed to know that Su Jingzhen and his group were not to be trifled with.

Its target was only the Guiding Divine Flower, and after swallowing it, it didn’t linger.

It turned around and darted into the depths of the forest in a flash.

“Not good, don’t let it get away!”

Qiu Yaoyao’s expression suddenly changed.

Phantom Beasts were skilled at hiding, and with their unique characteristics, it was difficult to spot them even when they were lying still.

If it wanted to hide, finding it would be no easy task.

Moreover, this forest was clearly much more familiar to the Phantom Beast than it was to them.

They had finally encountered this mysterious Guiding Divine Flower, which could have greatly assisted them in the Divine Source Secret Realm by acting as a cheat for them.

In an instant, it was swallowed by the Phantom Beast, and anyone would be unwilling to accept it.

Qiu Yaoyao immediately gave chase.

Yan Xia and Su Jingzhen returned to Xuening’s side. “Xuening, are you okay?”

During the clash between Qiu Yaoyao and the Phantom Beast, Xuening was the closest and inevitably felt the shock waves.

In fights at Qiu Yaoyao’s level, even the slightest aftereffects were beyond Xuening’s ability to withstand.

Xuening shook her head, her eyes filled with urgency.

“I’m fine. Big Brother Su, quickly go and help Sister Yaoyao catch the Phantom Beast.

The Divine Guiding Flower is extremely important to us. We cannot afford to lose it.

At this moment, the Guiding Divine Flower is not in its perfect state, so it’s likely that the Phantom Beast hasn’t fully consumed it. It has only moved it to a new location”.

Xuening clearly understood the importance of the Guiding Divine Flower and was now filled with regret.

When they first encountered the Guiding Divine Flower, they were too excited and didn’t consider the possibility of a guardian beast.

In the cultivation world, special spiritual flowers and herbs often had guardian animals.

The more advanced the plant, the stronger the guardian beast.

“It’s okay. Losing the Guiding Divine Flower just means that we have to get back on track. The important thing is that you’re safe.”

Su Jingzhen’s voice was soft as he gently ruffled Xuening’s hair.

Just as Su Jingzhen finished speaking, Xuening gave him triple hits.

The three of them remained where they were, waiting for Qiu Yaoyao to return.

Meanwhile, at the ceremonial square of the Four Water Region, many people sighed.

“Pity, these young people lack experience. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have let the Phantom Beast take the Guiding Divine Flower.”

“Originally, they could have made great progress in the Divine Source Secret Realm, leading everyone else.

It’s really a shame. Now, it won’t be easy to capture this 8th Grade Phantom Beast, which is comparable to a Tribulation Realm cultivator.”

“Hahaha, this is for the best. If they had gotten the Guiding Divine Flower, how could others enjoy the game?

Something that affects the balance of the game, like the Guiding Divine Flower, shouldn’t exist in the Divine Source Secret Realm.”

“…”

The crowd included those who gloated, those who sighed in relief, and those who sighed in disappointment.

Only the white-robed woman in the middle continued to watch Su Jingzhen with a calm gaze.

“Guiding Divine Flower, you won’t give up, will you? I wonder what choice you will make.”

…

A short while later, Qiu Yaoyao returned to Su Jingzhen and the others, her face showing disappointment.

“That thing is very fast and has strong hiding abilities. I lost it.”

As she spoke, Qiu Yaoyao felt a hint of frustration.

The Phantom Beast didn’t fight her; it just ran away.

Actually, being so familiar with the area, losing it was quite normal.

However, disappointment could be seen in everyone’s eyes.

“Sister Yaoyao, can you confirm that it’s still in this forest?”

Su Jingzhen looked at Qiu Yaoyao and asked.

He still found it hard to accept.

With the Guiding Divine Flower, their journey in the Divine Source Secret Realm would be much easier.

Qiu Yaoyao nodded.

“I can confirm that.”

Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen didn’t react immediately.

He summoned the phantom beast he had killed on Clear Wind Mountain directly from the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

All the beasts he had killed with his black bricks were reborn in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

With the highest authority in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, his will was absolute, and no beast could disobey him.

When the Phantom Beast appeared, Su Jingzhen’s expression showed a slight surprise.

The aura of the Phantom Beast had reached the 4th level, which was equivalent to the Nascent Soul level.

He was much stronger than when he had killed it.

Without hesitation, he said, “Lend me your power!”

Due to their racial characteristics, all Phantom Beasts shared the same ability to hide.

Phantom Beasts were not numerous in the cultivation world.

If Su Jingzhen possessed a Phantom Beast’s ability, he might be able to sense the one hiding in the forest.

In the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, the Phantom Beast didn’t hesitate. A bright silver light shone from its body, and its core power was instantly transferred to Su Jingzhen.

The next moment, Su Jingzhen felt a strange sensation.

He looked at Qiu Yaoyao.

“Sister Yaoyao, we might not have lost the Guiding Divine Flower completely.

Xuening mentioned that the flower wasn’t in its perfect state.

The Phantom Beast likely guarded the flower for a long time and wouldn’t consume it fully before it matured. So we still have a chance.”

As he spoke, a unique aura of the Phantom Beast emanated from his body.

“Stinky Brother, why do you have the aura of a Phantom Beast?”

Feeling this aura, Qiu Yaoyao was already shocked.

Su Jingzhen smiled. “In Linjiang City, I encountered a low-grade phantom beast and killed it by absorbing its beast core.”

He gave a casual reason that wasn’t exactly a lie.

His statement was accurate.

Before Qiu Yaoyao could ask more, Su Jingzhen continued, “Now, I’m using some of the Phantom Beast’s power. I might be able to sense its presence in this forest.”

Upon hearing this, the faces of those present brightened.

“What are you waiting for? Stinky Brother, take us to it. That damned Phantom Beast played with me; it won’t get away easily.”

As she spoke, a fierce light appeared in Qiu Yaoyao’s eyes.

Without hesitation, they once again entered the dense forest and headed in the direction where the Phantom Beast had disappeared.

“Looks like these youngsters haven’t given up yet.

However, Qiu Yaoyao couldn’t catch the Phantom Beast even when she first chased after it. Now, how could they possibly find it after so long?”

“It seems like they are wasting a lot of time in this forest, unable to make the right decisions.”

“However, it’s said that Su Jingzhen, who was in the Luo River Basin, is good at creating miracles. Perhaps this time he has a good chance.”

“Hahaha, finding an eighth-class phantom beast in the primeval forest of the Divine Abyss Secret Realm is never easy.”

“…”

Seeing Su Jingzhen’s actions in the field, many people scoffed.

…

Meanwhile, Su Jingzhen and the others continued to move forward.

Along the way, they saw fallen trees clearly left by Qiu Yaoyao during her chase.

However, these marks only extended for about a mile.

Beyond that, everything was normal.

“I lost it here.”

Looking at the deep, dark forest in front of her, Qiu Yaoyao’s expression was helpless.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen’s aura became peculiar again.

With the power of the Phantom Beast, he actually sensed a similar aura deep in the forest.

“Sister Yaoyao, prepare yourself. I’ve sensed its presence.”

Hearing this, the three women looked at him in surprise.

They couldn’t sense anything in the forest.

“Follow me!”

Su Jingzhen moved quickly through the forest, and the three women followed closely.

After a dozen breaths, Xuening’s brow relaxed. She once again smelled the scent of the Guiding Divine Flower.
