The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

“Suzhen was right. The reason for the restriction on cultivators below the Divine Intent Realm really does have a special purpose.”

Su Jingzhen’s expression showed a hint of shock.

The demonic energy in the air was getting thicker in the direction those confused people were heading.

“It seems like an ancient being is resurrecting over there, and it desperately needs a certain type of energy that only cultivators possess.”

Su Jingzhen’s eyes flickered slightly, filled with uneasiness.

During this period of time, more than a thousand cultivators had entered the depths of the Divine Capital.

And now, without exception, every single one of them was moving in the same direction without a care in the world.

With his divine consciousness, Su Jingzhen focused on an individual at the peak of the Divine Intent Realm. However, his eyes had lost all traces of self-awareness, like a puppet being controlled by invisible strings.

Before Su Jingzhen could react, he was horrified to see that Yan Xia, who had been standing on the long road, was also moving in that ominous direction.

“What the hell? Even the Water Spirit Saint Body can’t resist this? Are you kidding me?” Su Jingzhen muttered in disbelief.

At that moment, it dawned on him that he might have brought a burden with him.

However, his expression soon turned grim.

He could feel a strange, eerie energy lingering in the void, trying to penetrate his mind and enter his Niwan Palace.

The moment this sinister energy reached his forehead, it tried to drill into his Niwan Palace to take control of his consciousness.

However, just as the energy broke through his mental defenses, it triggered a sword-shaped mark hidden in his Niwan Palace.

This mark was left by Shuang Jiang in his sea of consciousness-a key tied to a mysterious sword technique that originated from the same sword aura that had once sliced Bai Suzhen in two.

That sword aura was incredibly powerful. Instinctively acting to protect Su Jingzhen, it easily shattered the invading energy.

The attempt to control Su Jingzhen had failed completely.

“No wonder those guys couldn’t stand it,” Su Jingzhen muttered, his heart still racing from the close call.

Had it not been for the powerful sword energy lingering in his sea of consciousness, he would have succumbed only moments before.

But there was no time to remain stunned.

Since he had brought Yan Xia with him, abandoning her was not an option. With a single step, Su Jingzhen appeared at Yan Xia’s side.

Without trying anything reckless, he directly retrieved Bai Suzhen from the Boundless Spirit Beast Pouch.

“Suzhen, I can’t handle this situation anymore. I’ll leave it to you.”

With that, Su Jingzhen openly gave up on solving the problem himself.

He had already noticed the ominous presence inside the floating palace at the heart of the Divine Capital. These demonic entities weren’t something that his current level of body cultivation could handle.

At least, these beings were no weaker than Si Nan.

Bai Suzhen emerged from the Boundless Spirit Beast Pouch, and with a single sweep of her divine consciousness, she quickly assessed the situation within the Divine Capital and pieced together about 70-80% of the details.

Without a word, her gaze shifted to Yan Xia, whose eyes were still lifeless and empty.

In an instant, the innate Dao mark on Bai Suzhen’s forehead appeared, and a radiant, holy white light engulfed Yan Xia.

The dazed expression in Yan Xia’s eyes gradually cleared, and she slowly regained her lucidity.

“What… what just happened to me?” Yan Xia asked the moment she recovered, completely confused. She had no memory of what had happened a few moments before.

Su Jingzhen chuckled. “Oh, nothing. You just almost ceased to exist, that’s all.”

As Su Jingzhen spoke, the Innate Dao Mark on Bai Suzhen’s forehead glowed even brighter, and another wave of white light erupted from her.

The light split into thousands of rays and enveloped all the people who were still stumbling towards the heart of the Divine Capital.

The moment the light touched them, every cultivator below the Divine Intent Realm froze.

The confusion in their expressions vanished and was replaced by clarity as they realized how dangerously close they were to the center of the Divine Capital.

As they sensed the immense and sinister demonic presence emanating from the floating palaces, fear painted their faces.

Without hesitation, they turned and sprinted away, doing everything in their power to escape the ominous palaces.

“What the hell was I doing just now? Weren’t we supposed to just enter the Divine Capital? How did we end up all the way here?”

“Yes! I don’t remember anything that happened before that!”

“The aura from those floating palaces… just feeling it makes my heart tremble. I can’t believe I actually tried to approach them earlier!”

“Damn it, so this is the inside of the Divine Capital? This isn’t a place we can explore at our cultivation level! How are we even going to get out of here alive?”

The cultivators quickly realized the gravity of their situation.

Just feeling the terrifying aura emanating from the floating palaces was enough to tell them that as individuals below the Unity Realm, they had no business interfering here.

As they discussed their next steps, the group suddenly noticed Bai Suzhen and Yan Xia standing in the distance.

At the same time, they realized that the white pillars of light surrounding them were from Su Jingzhen’s group.

Feeling like they had finally found a lifeline, the once-dazed cultivators began to rush towards Su Jingzhen and the others, hoping to find safety by staying close to them.

“Daoist Su, what is going on here?”

“Was it you, Daoist Su, who secretly helped us just now?”

“Thank you for saving our lives, Daoist Su!”

As the group approached Su Jingzhen and Yan Xia, voices of gratitude and flattery erupted from all sides, surrounding him.

At the same time, their eyes landed on the small snake floating next to Su Jingzhen-Bai Suzhen.

They immediately realized that the white light that had dispelled their confusion had come from this seemingly ordinary snake.

This discovery filled them with both awe and unease, but also a heightened sense of security.

However, Su Jingzhen ignored their flattery. His gaze remained fixed on the floating palaces at the heart of the Divine Capital.

Ever since he had interrupted whatever sinister ritual was taking place, the demonic aura emanating from the palaces had become noticeably more turbulent, like a wild beast expressing its fury.

The void at the center of the capital trembled violently, as if preparing to unleash a terrifying storm.

Seeing this, the group of cultivators huddled even closer behind Su Jingzhen, fear written on their faces.

At that moment, waves of spatial fluctuations rippled across the edges of the Divine Capital.

One by one, figures from the outside appeared, drawn into this dangerous realm.

However, before Bai Suzhen could intervene and protect these newcomers with her light, a violent burst of demonic energy from the central palaces pulled several of them straight toward the ominous structures.

“Boom! Boom! Boom!”

A series of deafening explosions rang out, freezing everyone’s hearts.

The unfortunate newcomers exploded into clouds of blood mist the moment they got too close to the palaces, their bodies instantly obliterated.

The palaces greedily absorbed the blood mist, leaving no trace of their souls, not even the slightest remnant of a soul escaping.

“Damn it! We’re nothing but cannon fodder in this place!”

“How the hell are we going to escape? That thing is terrifying, and we have no way to defend ourselves!”

“We can’t even see the city’s defense formation anymore. The breach we used to enter is gone! Are we really trapped here?”

Hopeless murmurs rippled through the crowd, and some began to despair.

Their courage was fading fast, and the realization of their helpless situation hit them hard. Many now stood paralyzed with fear, as if surrendering to the grim fate that awaited them.
