The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Sometimes I regret that you are not a disciple of Sword Land.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But then I think that someone like you not being a Sword Land disciple is actually quite normal."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Looking at the carefree Su Jingzhen, Sword Master's expression remained complex.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But before Su Jingzhen could respond, Sword Master smiled and continued, "However, it seems irrelevant now.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even though you are not a Sword Land disciple, your ties with Sword Land are already inseparable.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Since Young Friend Su has made his decision and likely has a destination in mind, I won't try to persuade you to stay.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I can only wish you a safe journey."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen nodded. "A smooth journey is unlikely, but as I said before, I look forward to meeting Sword Master at the Martial God Hall."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Whenever he arrived at a gathering of cultivators, he would most likely be recognized immediately.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">There would always be people like Fu Guang and Tie Jian who were willing to take desperate risks.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even figures like Wu Lingtian and Hunchbacked Immortal would probably be watching him from the shadows.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After all, the Martial God Hall was still determined to obtain the Martial God's Void Tower.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Naturally aware of Su Jingzhen's predicament, the Sword Master spoke with a slightly grave expression:

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"In the Emperor's Realm, if anything unexpected happens, young friend Su can use the Sword Master token I gave you to contact me.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I will rush to you as soon as possible."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen nodded but said nothing further.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With a single step, he vanished from the Sword Master's sight.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He decided not to use the teleportation array this time.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The most important goal of his journey in the Emperor's Realm was to find Zhang Xiu, which he had already accomplished.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">And the outcome was far better than he had expected.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His second goal was to travel around the Emperor Realm and experience its unique atmosphere. This content originates from M1VLEMPYR, My Virtual Library Empire.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After all, every new place offered different insights, which would greatly benefit his cultivation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His third goal, which had formed during his time at the Immortal Palace, was to visit the headquarters of the Immortal Palace and investigate the legendary "Immortal" entity.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Under the guidance of the Grand Elder, Su Jingzhen had glimpsed the lives of the powerful figures in the Immortal Imprint.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He had a vague feeling that seeing the true form of the Immortal would bring about a significant transformation for him.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, this would have to wait until after his journey.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After all, the Immortal Palace wasn't going anywhere, and his connection with it was deep. He could visit it anytime he wished.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Grow quickly. Time is running out."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Sword Master watched the direction Su Jingzhen had left, his eyes filled with anticipation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Yunmeng Goddess, or Xuening, is from the Immortal Palace. Grandpa Dantai was also a member of the Immortal Palace, though I don't know what happened between them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I wonder if I'll see them again in the Emperor's Realm."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">An hour after parting ways with Sword Master, Su Jingzhen stood at the edge of a modest sized town.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Watching the light streams coming and going, he felt a sense of anticipation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As for the Immortal Palace, the Emperor's Realm, and even the entire Immortal World, Su Jingzhen had only just begun to touch the core.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But there was still so much more that he didn't know.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He could have asked Zhang Xiu or the Sword Master for answers.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Perhaps he would have gotten some clarity from them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But he also knew that his priority right now was to improve himself.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This improvement shouldn't only be about cultivation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In fact, reaching his current level in just over a year thanks to his "cheats" was likely unprecedented in the entire Immortal World.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Cultivators sought to understand the principles of heaven and earth in order to harness spiritual energy, but at a certain point, it became more about the state of mind.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even with his two lifetimes of experience, Su Jingzhen still felt that he wasn't quite there yet.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Back when he broke through to the Body Emperor Realm, he had a vague sense that he needed to slow down.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But due to a series of events, not only had he not slowed down, but his breakthroughs had come faster and faster.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"It's time to slow down."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen walked towards the city gate. By the time he reached it, he had transformed into a scholarly figure in a blue robe.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He carried a book in his hand and a sword at his waist, and his hair was tied up high, exuding the aura of a scholarly swordsman.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With his appearance altered by the power of the world, even Immortal Kings or low-level Immortal Emperors wouldn't be able to see through his disguise.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Winter Sun City..."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He quietly recited the name of the city and stepped inside.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">While the city's scale couldn't be compared to superpower hubs like Dan City or Sword City, it was much larger than Yunmeng City or Tianning City, which he had seen in Qingzhou.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The cultivators who came and went here were mostly at or above the Divine Intent Realm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, this was still a relatively insignificant city in the Emperor Realm. Su Jingzhen didn't see a single Spirit Immortal-level cultivator on the streets.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The strongest he saw were two Great Perfection Realm cultivators.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's divine consciousness spread out, instantly identifying the most powerful force in Winter Sun City.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It wasn't a family or a sect, but the Winter Sun Immortal Academy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This was an academy-style institution, and families from all over Winter Sun City sent their children here to study.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The academy had a few spirit immortals overseeing it.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With his current abilities, Su Jingzhen easily gathered information about the Winter Sun Immortal Academy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Well then, let's go to school in the immortal world again."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen was now standing at the entrance of Winter Sun Immortal Academy.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"The academy grounds are restricted. Unauthorized personnel are not allowed to enter!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As soon as Su Jingzhen tried to step inside, he was stopped by the two guards.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Both guards were in the Divine Intent Realm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In a place like Qingzhou, such a cultivation would make them local powerhouses.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But in the Emperor Realm, it was somewhat pitiful.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This showed how far the Winter Sun Immortal Academy had fallen.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Despite this, the two guards still had an air of arrogance about them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's lips curled into a faint smile.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I'm here to study."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen spoke humbly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Hearing this, the guards sneered. "Study? The enrollment period is over. Come back next year."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After a pause, one of them looked Su Jingzhen up and down and added mockingly, "To enroll, you need to start from a young age. You look like an old man. No chance."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Then, stroking his chin, he scrutinized Su Jingzhen more carefully. "What is your cultivation level?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Noticing the slight change in the guard's attitude, Su Jingzhen felt a bit confused.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I just reached the Divine Intent Realm a few days ago," he replied.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Upon hearing this, the guards' eyes lit up.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You meet the requirements.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Kid, you're not eligible to be a disciple, but there's still a way for you to enter our academy."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen raised his eyebrows. He had a rough idea of what was coming.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The guard continued with a grin, "Join us. As the proud guardians of the academy's order, we need talents like you.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Believe me, joining us now will save you hundreds of years of detours!"
