The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 1011: Leaving Nothing in His Wake

"Brother Su is becoming more and more mysterious. It seems to be getting harder and harder for us to catch up with him. In fact, I think it's practically impossible now."

"Sigh, we were all top geniuses from the Four Water Region back then. How did the gap between us and him become so wide?"

"After leaving the Four Water Region, it was as if the sky was the limit for him, while we seem to have faded into obscurity."

"..."

As they watched Su Jingzhen lead the way, Xuan Su, Han Qianxue, Jian Ling, and the others exchanged glances and sighed repeatedly.

Their cultivation levels were still higher than Su Jingzhen's, and not by a small margin. 

However, they were well aware that Su Jingzhen had already far surpassed them in terms of combat strength and other aspects. 

In fact, there was simply no comparison.

After all, given their talents, they were still able to become leading figures in their respective sects. 

Whether one is considered mediocre or not largely depends on who one is compared to.

Yan Xia did not join the discussion. 

Her gaze was fixed on Su Jingzhen, her expression extremely complex. 

She possessed the Water Spirit Saint Body and had received tremendous opportunities at the Extreme Ice Hall, further developing her Saint Body. 

She had thought that with these advantages, she could stand alongside Su Jingzhen and support him in various ways. 

But after witnessing Su Jingzhen create miracles time and again, achieving feats she could only dream of, she was left with nothing but bitterness.

Among the group, only Ning Yao and Shengana were the most excited. 

Su Jingzhen was Ning Yao's teacher, and the stronger he became, the prouder she felt. 

Her loyalty to Su Jingzhen remained as sincere as it had been back in Linjiang City. 

As for Shengana, the stronger Su Jingzhen proved to be, the more it confirmed that she had made the right choice in following him.

Of course, Su Jingzhen had no idea what the others were thinking. 

At this moment, his focus was solely on the heavenly fires within the volcano. 

Soon, he led the group to another seemingly ordinary volcano. The crater was still spewing molten lava.

The women followed Su Jingzhen in silence, watching him intently. 

In the Fire Element Secret Realm, their role was primarily to observe, as they were unable to help Su Jingzhen in any way. 

The best they could do was not to hinder him.

This time, however, they were surprised to see that Su Jingzhen didn't even choose to enter the volcano. 

Instead, the Seven-Colored Purifying World Flame in his hand flared up once again. Then he placed it directly above the crater.

As the holy aura of the Seven-Colored Purifying World Flame spread, a green flame suddenly shot out from the crater below. 

It radiated an extremely violent energy, causing everyone present to be completely shocked.

"Is that... the heavenly fire from inside the volcano? Did Brother Su just summon it out?"

"The Seven-Colored Purifying World Flame has such an ability?"

"..."

This time, following Su Jingzhen, the women were truly enlightened.

"If I'm not mistaken, this should be a fairly high-level heavenly fire known as the Earth Core Flame. It's something that countless alchemists dream of obtaining. 

Yet, it seems to be bowing in reverence to Brother Su's Seven-Colored Purifying Flame."

The women murmured in awe, obviously not fully understanding the capabilities of the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame.

Su Jingzhen, however, was brimming with excitement. 

He directly urged the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame to summon the Green Earth Core Flame in front of him. 

The green Earth Core Flame immediately detached itself from the crater and flew toward him.

The Seven-Colored Purifying Flame seemed to sense Su Jingzhen's intention and dissipated from his right hand. 

At the same time, the equally high-ranking Flesh and Blood Fire surged up on his left hand. 

In the presence of the Flesh and Blood Fire, the Earth Core Flame could only submit and was swiftly absorbed and fused into it.

By now, absorbing a single Heavenly Fire like this could no longer help Su Jingzhen break through to a higher level of cultivation. 

However, as a Body Emperor, the power of his flesh and blood fire was incomparable to what it had been when he was merely at Body Venerable Realm.

The entire process of subduing the Heavenly Fire took only a few dozen breaths.

"I wonder if the Flesh and Blood Fire can rival the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame after absorbing all the heavenly fires in the Fire Element Secret Realm of the Divine Shepherd Sect," 

Su Jingzhen mused, his eyes filled with anticipation as he observed the slightly enhanced Flesh and Blood Fire.

Previously, he had thought that his Flesh and Blood Fire was already on par with any heavenly fire in terms of rank. 

However, after encountering the Seven-Colored Purifying World Flame, he realized how laughable that notion had been.

Then he turned his gaze to Jian Ling and the others behind him.

"Alright, this place is finished. Let's move on to the next one. I can sense that there are about thirty more Heavenly Fires in this Fire Elemental Secret Realm."

The Seven-Colored Purifying Flame seemed to be the soul of this Fire Element Secret Realm. 

Through it, Su Jingzhen could clearly sense which heavenly fires had yet to be collected. 

Earlier, Shangguan had mentioned that there should be around fifty Heavenly Fires in this secret realm. 

Aside from the ones he had absorbed, it seemed that the members of the Divine Dan Sect and Fire God Mountain had also been busy.

"Now that I've started making my move, how many you can obtain will depend on your own abilities," Su Jingzhen thought to himself.

For Su Jingzhen, taming these heavenly fires only required a little more time to travel. 

Just as he finished speaking, the golden text once again appeared before him.

[Emotional Connection +22]

[Emotional Connection +22]

[Emotional Connection +22]

[Emotional Connection…]

[Remaining Available Points: 17,024]

Shengana had once again given him a five hit combo. 

This was mainly due to the fact that Su Jingzhen's recent actions had been grand and earth-shattering, each of which had left Shengana utterly astonished.

Su Jingzhen smiled faintly. The addition of a couple of hundred points had reignited his excitement. Without any further delay, he headed to the next location.

"Heavenly Phoenix Divine Flame!"

"Chaos Boundless Flame!"

"Heavenly Azure Divine Flame!"

"..."

For the next half hour, wherever Su Jingzhen went, a divine flame was inevitably collected. 

The quality of the heavenly fires in the Fire Element Secret Realm of the Divine Shepherd Sect was on par with those in the realm of the Divine Dan Sect.

When Su Jingzhen stood at the crater of the deepest volcano in the range and collected the final Heavenly Fire, the number of Heavenly Fires fused into his Flesh and Blood Fire had reached a staggering one hundred and forty!

With the support of these dozens of heavenly fires, the his blood energy was further refined. He easily broke through to the second stage of the Body Emperor realm!

Even without Su Jingzhen deliberately activating the power of the Flesh and Blood Fire, just a single glance at it made Jian Ling and the others feel as though their souls were being scorched.

"After fusing so many heavenly fires, I wonder if his Flesh and Blood Fire can now rival the Seven-Colored Purifying Flame in rank."

"Have you noticed? After Brother Su collected that last Azure Heavenly Flame, the temperature in the entire Fire Element Secret Realm seemed to drop significantly. It's as if all the volcanoes are starting to cool down."

"This Fire Element Secret Realm is finally ruined."

Jian Ling, Han Qianxue, and the others sighed with emotion.

This reminded them of the time when Su Jingzhen participated in the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition. It seemed that wherever this guy went, whether it was a sacred land or a secret realm, it would inevitably be destroyed.

Thinking about this, the women's expressions couldn't help but become a bit strange.
