The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter 915: Meeting Ning Yao
Time passed, and another two hours went by.
At this moment, in the second round of trials, Tian Lin, Mu Qingshi, Wang Yingying, and all those who had comprehended the Dan Heart had successfully broken through to the second scenario.
Su Jingzhen’s eyebrows twitched again.
He observed that the second scenario for Tian Lin, Wang Yingying, and the others was also filled with poisonous substances, but it was different from the one Little Ling had experienced.
It seemed that the later one entered the second scenario, the lower the level of the secret realm they would encounter.
However, the purpose was largely the same, to test their understanding of poisons.
At this point, Su Jingzhen gradually understood the Divine Dan Sect’s intention.
This was indeed an important opportunity for each participant.
Most alchemists do not have the chance to come into contact with many poisons, and the Divine Dan Sect provided them with this opportunity.
In their future careers as alchemists, these people would inevitably encounter poisons in their potions.
Moreover, if they could understand poisons, it would certainly benefit their understanding of regular pharmacology.
As for how much they could understand and how many scenarios they could reach, it depended on their individual talents.
In this regard, Su Jingzhen had almost cheated his way through.
Apart from actually collecting the poisonous jungle and a few floating islands, he did not gain much benefit.
“Dantai Ling’er really lives up to being the biggest dark horse this time, actually being the first to enter the third scenario.”
“If she can also complete the second round of trials after passing the third scenario like Su Jingzhen did, then she will be the undisputed first place.”
“Truly worthy to be my new goddess.”
“…”
The discussion continued.
However, everyone tacitly excluded Su Jingzhen from the discussion.
They tacitly agreed that those who were still in the competition were the normal participants for this round.
Hearing these comments, a wry smile appeared on Su Jingzhen’s lips, but he did not say much.
However, he thought of Qiu Yaoyao.
If Qiu Yaoyao were here now, she would surely be proud of him.
At this moment, his gaze, like everyone else’s, fell on Little Ling.
The source of this c𝓸ntent is freewebnøvel.coɱ.
Little Ling had entered the third scenario, which was indeed a shattered world.
However, the place was not the same as the one Su Jingzhen had experienced.
She was standing on a rather large floating island filled with numerous lakes and swamps.
Clearly, the broken Dao here was the Dao of Water!
Little Ling’s face was a mixture of confusion.
However, after just two incense sticks’ worth of time, she seemed to understand something.
She stopped running around and sat down cross-legged. She opened her hand, and a bright red flame rose up.
She directly revealed her Heart of the Luminous Candle.
Then, she began to connect with the Water Dao in her surroundings.
Suddenly, dozens of medicinal herbs appeared in front of her.
She began to refine them in her palm one by one.
As an alchemist, the best way to integrate the essence of such a Dao into her potions was to refine them in the place where the Dao essence was most concentrated.
This process was obviously not something that could be completed in a short amount of time.
The millions of spectators on the outskirts were all looking forward with anticipation.
At this moment, Su Jingzhen saw a streak of light rapidly approaching him.
His eyebrows raised slightly.
In the next instant, he felt a familiar aura.
The figure appeared a hundred meters away.
It was Ning Yao, who had come with her sect.
At that moment, she was intercepted by a maid from Su Jingzhen’s estate.
Obviously, the area where Su Jingzhen was located was off-limits to ordinary people, except for those with special status.
Seeing Ning Yao, Su Jingzhen was stunned at first, but then his eyes lit up with surprise.
He immediately gestured for the maid to let them through.
Ning Yao rushed to his side, her face filled with excitement.
“Disciple Ning Yao, pays respects to Master!”
Although they hadn’t seen each other for over a month, a lot had happened in that time.
It felt like three years had passed.
“Girl, what are you doing here?”
After his initial confusion, Su Jingzhen was obviously quite happy.
He felt like he was meeting an old friend in a distant land.
Instinctively, he reached out and ruffled Ning Yao’s hair, forgetting for a moment that she was now an adult young woman.
However, Ning Yao did not feel any discomfort from Su Jingzhen’s action; instead, she felt a warm sensation in her heart.
She then told Su Jingzhen everything that had happened in the past month.
Su Jingzhen was both surprised and happy for Ning Yao.
“Profound Mystery Dao Sect? It seems that he is a superpower in the cultivation world as well.
I didn’t expect it to be related to your Eternal Water Immortal Sect.
In that case, I congratulate you.”
From a little girl in Linjiang City’s Peach Blossom Alley to a core genius of a superpower in the cultivation world, the leap was significant.
Upon hearing Su Jingzhen’s words, Ning Yao’s eyes welled up slightly.
She bowed respectfully to Su Jingzhen again, “All that Yao has achieved is thanks to Master.
If it weren’t for Master, Yao would still be in Linjiang City, and I wouldn’t dare imagine what kind of fate I would have.”
Ning Yao’s mention of Linjiang City made Su Jingzhen’s expression turn slightly serious. “I once said that I would take you with me to find your mother.
But so far, we still haven’t found any clues.”
As he said this, a hint of regret crept into Su Jingzhen’s voice.
When he mentioned Zhang Xiu, Ning Yao’s face also showed a moment of confusion.
After all, Zhang Xiu had only been gone for about a year.
But the events of the past year had made it seem like a much longer time.
“Mother, she… we will find her eventually.”
Ning Yao’s tone was heavy, and she didn’t know how to proceed.
The cultivation world was vast, and finding one person among millions was not an easy task.
Unless that person was as bright as a torch in the dark.
However, according to Su Jingzhen and Ning Yao, Zhang Xiu was just a low-level cultivator with mediocre talent.
Even after so many years of cultivation, she had only reached the late qi condensation stage.
How could she become so prominent in just one year that they could find her?
In the past year, Ning Yao had worked incredibly hard to cultivate.
She wanted to reach the peak of the cultivation world as soon as possible.
She knew that once she reached a certain level of power, she would have unimaginable means to find Zhang Xiu.
The two of them tacitly avoided dwelling on this topic for too long.
Then, Ning Yao took the initiative to tell Su Jingzhen about some interesting things that had happened during that time.
She also informed him that most of the old acquaintances he had met at the Four Waters Martial Arts Competition were present.
She pointed to the place where Xuan Su and others were standing from a distance.
Su Jingzhen nodded in recognition.
However, since they were with their respective sect elders, Su Jingzhen did not invite them to join him so as not to appear abrupt.
“Girl, you said that Xuan Jin is also here, right?
Why can’t I see him? The Martial God Hall people are over there, and he doesn’t seem to be among them.”
Upon hearing this, Ning Yao looked at the position of the Martial God Hall.
Indeed, Xuan Jin was nowhere to be seen, and her eyebrows furrowed.
“He was definitely here yesterday. After the first round ended, the people from Profound Mystery Dao Sect greeted the people from the Martial God Hall.
Xuan Jin even smiled at me. Could it be that he didn’t come to watch the second round today?”
Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen seemed to be thinking of something, and his eyebrows gradually furrowed.
