The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter "1196"

<h1text-align:" center"=""><spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Chapter 1196: Immortal King Little Ling

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">On the vast square of the headquarters of the Immortal Palace, the Grand Elder stood with his hands behind his back, waiting anxiously.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His gaze was fixed on the unmarked tombstone in front of him.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The next moment, the tombstone revealed the portal once again.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's figure appeared.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The Grand Elder was momentarily stunned, and the light in his eyes dimmed slightly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"So soon? It seems like it was a failure after all?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Disappointed, the Grand Elder muttered to himself.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He then shook his head and sighed, "Indeed, finding someone to succeed the Immortal is an incredibly difficult task. Perhaps this is the fate of our immortal realm."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Su Jingzhen, with a faint smile on his lips. "It seems that Young Friend Su hasn't gained much inside. But that's okay. Everyone has their own destiny.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Since you didn't gain much from the Immortal's true form, there are still many other mystical places within the headquarters of the Immortal Palace where you can cultivate and refine yourself."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As soon as the Grand Elder finished speaking, he noticed that Su Jingzhen's face was dark.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Before Su Jingzhen could say anything, a series of loud rumblings erupted from the tombstone behind them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">A holy yet violent energy surged out of the portal.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The entire tombstone of the Immortal cracked and then collapsed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The Grand Elder was once again stunned, completely unaware of what was happening.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"This... this... Young Friend Su, what were you doing inside?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The Grand Elder's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">For countless ages, almost everyone in the Immortal Palace had entered the tombstone, but no one had ever been able to recognize the Immortal's true form.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even the Grand Elder himself had only received some powerful inheritances and nothing more.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As for Little Ling, the current Saintess of the Immortal Palace, she hadn't even gained the qualification to enter yet.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But now, with the shattered tombstone and the violent rumbling sounds, the Grand Elder seemed to have guessed what had happened.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The most important foundation of the Immortal Palace had been destroyed by Su Jingzhen in such a short time?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even with the Grand Elder's immense cultivation, he still couldn't accept this.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His eyes showed a mixture of hope and despair.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But in the next moment, the Grand Elder's gaze was fixed on Su Jingzhen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">A look of disbelief appeared on his face.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"No, with the Immortal's true form inside, the space should have been incredibly stable. Even a Supreme Immortal Emperor wouldn't have been able to destroy it.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If it has truly collapsed, it can only mean one thing!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As the Grand Elder spoke, the light in his eyes grew brighter and brighter.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Young Friend Su, you have truly gained the recognition of the Immortal's true form!" 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he said this, the Grand Elder's eyes shone with excitement!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, Su Jingzhen's face remained dark.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He directly revealed the "Immortal" character on his forehead.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I don't understand what you mean by 'recognition'.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But my experience inside was far from pleasant.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Grand Elder, you owe me an explanation!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">No matter what methods he used, Su Jingzhen couldn't probe the secrets within the "Immortal" character on his forehead.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Cultivators' methods were unpredictable. What if, after he reached the pinnacle with the help of the system, all his efforts ended up benefiting someone else?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Upon hearing this, the Grand Elder was stunned for a moment. "What do you mean, young friend?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen didn't beat around the bush and voiced his concerns directly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After all, he was no match for the Grand Elder at the moment, so he might as well vent his frustration verbally.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After listening to Su Jingzhen, the Grand Elder remained silent for three seconds before smiling.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Young friend Su, you need not worry about possession.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I will immediately swear an oath to Heaven. Such a thing will not happen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If it does, the Immortal Palace will be reduced to ashes!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even though the Grand Elder's heavenly oath didn't directly relate to the matter and couldn't affect the actions of the Immortal's true form, Su Jingzhen felt a bit more at ease.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this moment, the Grand Elder's face showed a hint of sadness. "The Immortal has waited far too long.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In truth, the fundamental purpose of the Immortal Palace's existence is to find a pillar for the Immortal - or rather, for the Immortal Realm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Now that his wish has been fulfilled, he can finally rest in peace and find liberation."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">These words made Su Jingzhen even more confused.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Finding a pillar for the immortal realm?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I've only just reached the True Saint Realm in my physical cultivation. Compared to you Immortal Kings and Immortal Emperors, I'm just a small fish.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">How did I become the pillar of the immortal realm?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen never had any big ambitions.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He just wanted to rely on the system to quietly develop and grow stronger.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But a series of real-world problems had forced him to keep moving, like a horse that couldn't stop.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even now, he only wanted to reach a level of cultivation where he could protect those he cared about, and then slow down.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Find a peaceful place like the Winter Sun Immortal Academy, settle down with a Dao Companion, have children, and live a quiet life.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Become a reclusive expert who loves wealth and beauty.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But now, from what the Grand Elder was saying, it seemed that he was supposed to care for the masses and be the savior?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Before Su Jingzhen could ask any more questions, the Grand Elder continued, "Don't worry. This 'Immortal' character will be one of your greatest assets. You'll understand its importance at the critical moment."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After clarifying everything, the Grand Elder's worries were gone.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Now, when he looked at Su Jingzhen, there was a sense of relief and even a hint of reverence.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this point, Su Jingzhen finally began to relax a bit.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Suddenly, the Grand Elder's aura surged.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His power was revealed-this old man was actually a peak ninth-level Immortal Emperor!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In Su Jingzhen's eyes, the Grand Elder seemed even stronger than the Lifeless Demon King, who hadn't fully recovered his strength at the peak of Death Mountain.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen was shocked, not knowing what the Grand Elder was about to do. Thɪs chapter is updated by NoveIꜰire.net

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In the next moment, he saw that in front of the Grand Elder's massive statue, in the first position—previously obscured by an incredibly profound energy—the statue's features gradually became clear.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When the energy dissipated, Su Jingzhen was once again stunned.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Because the face of the statue was identical to his own face!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"What... what does this mean?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen instinctively looked at the grand elder.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The Grand Elder smiled. "You have gained the recognition of the Immortal's true form and inherited everything from him. Of course, you are now a member of the Immortal Palace.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">And the most important one at that.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This is both expected and necessary.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">There are some things I won't ask you to do, but as your cultivation grows, you will come to understand them on your own."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the same time, in another mystical place within the Emperor's Realm, Xuening seemed to sense something.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her gaze instinctively turned in the direction of the Immortal Palace.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Is this... has Brother Su succeeded?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As she muttered to herself, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Elsewhere, above a sea of clouds, an old man wearing a straw raincoat, seemingly fishing for the Dao, also turned his gaze toward the Immortal Palace.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His eyes flickered with a mixture of regret and joy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In another small town in the mortal world, inside a teahouse, Dantai Mingjing, missing an arm and a leg, suddenly put down his teacup.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Like Xuening and the others, he looked toward the Immortal Palace.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The knot in his brow loosened slowly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I always thought that you were just the one destined for the little girl's growth.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I never expected that the one the Immortal has been waiting for all this time... was you."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">...

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">All the members of the Immortal Palace, no matter where they were scattered, turned their gaze in the same direction.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, their emotions were mixed and complex.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Meanwhile, while Su Jingzhen was still talking to the Grand Elder, deep inside the Immortal Palace, in a secluded valley, a strange aura suddenly surged.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At first, the aura was weak, but within ten breaths, it reached the level of an Immortal King!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">And this aura was familiar to both Su Jingzhen and the Grand Elder.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It was none other than Dantai Ling'er!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Sensing this, Su Jingzhen was stunned.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She's already an Immortal King?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Little Ling'er had always been weaker in cultivation than Su Jingzhen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">How had she made such a huge leap in just a few days?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Compared to her, what kind of a cheat user was he?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The next moment, that aura suddenly descended onto the square where Su Jingzhen and the grand elder were standing.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It was indeed Little Ling.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Now, she stood tall and graceful, and her aura was even more extraordinary.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Ah! Brother Su, you're here too!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Originally, Little Ling had sensed the Grand Elder's presence and come over.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But upon arriving, she was pleasantly surprised to find Su Jingzhen there as well.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her eyes sparkled with joy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Brother Su, look at my cultivation level now! I can protect you!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The moment she saw Su Jingzhen, Little Ling proudly released her Immortal King level aura as if showing off.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen instinctively reached out and ruffled her hair.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"An Immortal King, huh? Little Ling can indeed protect Brother Su now."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he spoke, Su Jingzhen felt both happy and a bit conflicted for Little Ling.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When they first met in Tianning City, Little Ling and Xuening were just like him - low-level cultivators in the Immortal Realm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In just over a year, he had reached a level comparable to the True Immortal Realm, Little Ling had become an Immortal King as the Saintess of the Immortal Palace, and Xuening, as the reincarnation of the Yunmeng Goddess, was already an Immortal Emperor.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In just one year, their lives had undergone earth-shattering changes.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If their experiences were told, it would be a legend throughout the Immortal Realm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">And no one would believe it.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this moment, the grand elder smiled and said, "Young friend Su, there's no need to belittle yourself.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Little Ling's rapid progress is due to her unique nature and the resources accumulated by the Immortal Palace over countless ages.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After reaching this level, her further progress will depend on her own efforts. But for you, Young Friend Su, it's different".

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen naturally understood the deeper meaning behind the Grand Elder's words.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He knew that the Grand Elder was likely aware of the existence of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss in his possession.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When the Grand Elder finished speaking, Little Ling stared at Su Jingzhen's forehead as if she had noticed something.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her eyes widened in shock.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Brother Su, you... you've met the Immortal's true form and gained his recognition?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Before Su Jingzhen could answer, she had already seen the shattered tombstone and the still rumbling tomb.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her heart was filled with both excitement and disbelief.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As one of the nine official members of the Immortal Palace, Little Ling naturally understood what this meant.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Oh, my heavens!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But this is wonderful!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Although if anyone could have been chosen for this, I'd rather it be you, Brother Su!"
