The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud-Chapter "1175"

<h1text-align:" center"=""><spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Chapter 1175: The Outpost

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As the Nethersea Ferry docked, Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang didn't hesitate.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Each of them handed over a Spirit Immortal tier artifact as fare and boarded the ship.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The ticket price wasn't very expensive.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even though their strength allowed them to cross the Nethersea on their own, taking the ferry would save them a lot of trouble in the early stages.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Moreover, the Nethersea Ferry wouldn't lose its way in the Nethersea, and it would take them directly to the last safe outpost in the Nethersea.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As the saying goes, "Every trade has its master".

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Although Shuang Jiang's strength surpassed many of the Immortal Emperors in Nethersea City, those who had been stationed here for years had a deeper understanding of Nethersea than they did.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It was no surprise then that they had developed items like Nethersea Spirit Liquid, soul-repelling talismans, and even the Nethersea Ferry.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The ferry only stayed at the dock for an hour before leaving.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As it cut through the Nethersea mist, Su Jingzhen could clearly see pairs of crimson eyes glowing within the fog.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The wandering souls that appeared as clusters of mist were constantly attacking the ship.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, every time a soul attacked, a golden light would flash across the ship's hull.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The entire ferry was constructed from materials that were extremely effective at repelling these yin souls, and countless formations were inscribed on its surface.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Ordinary souls that dared to approach would be instantly destroyed, while stronger souls that possessed some degree of self-awareness would instinctively know to fear the ship.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"This is quite interesting. It seems my understanding of the immortal world is still too shallow. There are too many mysteries I'm unaware of,"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen couldn't help but muse as he observed this.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The ferry's speed wasn't particularly fast, but as it ventured deeper into the Nethersea, the surrounding souls grew increasingly powerful.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At one point, a soul that attacked the ship emitted an aura at the level of a spirit immortal.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You two don't carry much of the Nethersea's aura. I assume this is your first time here?" Newest update provided by NoveI-Fire.ɴet

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">A green-robed young man approached Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang and started talking to them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This young man's aura was concealed, but his demeanor suggested that his cultivation wasn't weak.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen frowned, not wanting to get involved.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The task he was undertaking this time was extremely important, and with Shuang Jiang by his side, their strength was more than sufficient.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">There was no need to make alliances.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen could tell that this young man was probably trying to form a team.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing that neither Su Jingzhen nor Shuang Jiang showed any interest, the young man looked slightly embarrassed but didn't give up.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He continued, "To be honest, I've been roaming the Nethersea for years and am very familiar with everything here. If we join forces, I can provide you with many conveniences."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The two remained unmoved, their gazes fixed on the Nethersea ahead.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"=""> Seeing this, the young man's expression changed again. Realizing that his initial offer wasn't enough, he added, "Some time ago, I obtained a fragment of a map on a floating island in the Nethersea.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The map pertains to Death Mountain and marks the location of a spring called Primordial Divine Spring.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Given my strength, I can't reach that place alone, so I was hoping to team up with you two and share the Primordial Divine Spring. What do you think?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he spoke, the young man's expression was extremely serious.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen still showed no reaction, but Shuang Jiang's eyebrows twitched slightly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You're saying that the Primordial Divine Spring is on Death Mountain?" Shuang Jiang asked directly.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The young man nodded eagerly. "I swear by the Heavenly Dao!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he spoke, his expression remained earnest. Shuang Jiang nodded. "How do you propose we work together? I agree."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Upon hearing this, Su Jingzhen looked surprised, while the young man was overjoyed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You two just need to escort me to the place marked on the map, and we'll each swear by the Heavenly Dao. When we reach the source, we'll divide the Primordial Divine Source equally between the three of us."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Is it really that simple?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"It really is that simple!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Without hesitation, Shuang Jiang immediately swore the Heavenly Dao and formed a temporary alliance with the young man.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen followed suit, though he was still somewhat confused throughout the entire process.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"The Primordial Divine Spring is a valuable treasure, and we're already heading to Death Mountain anyway, so this doesn't conflict with our plans. You'll understand later,"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Shuang Jiang's voice sounded in Su Jingzhen's ear, answering his unspoken question.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Pleasure to work with you. I'm Qin Tian," the young man introduced himself, clearly excited.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Not long after, the Nethersea Ferry docked again.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This time, the shoreline was much shorter, just an irregular platform.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, many people came and went on this platform.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When Su Jingzhen and the others disembarked, they noticed a subtle energy barrier protecting the platform.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the edges, several people were using net-like artifacts to catch the souls that were constantly approaching the platform. The captured souls were then stored in specially made soul banners.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"These are professional soul catchers. They mainly serve organizations like the Treasure Gathering Pavilion and the Soul Sect.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The souls they catch are the raw materials for refining Nethersea Spirit Liquid.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Every day, people take the Nethersea Ferry to and from this place. As long as you're at least a Spirit Immortal, this job is much more lucrative than many others,"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Qin Tian explained, seeing that Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang were unfamiliar with the scene.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As a seasoned veteran of the Nethersea, he was well-versed in such matters.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Then he added, "This temporary outpost is still very far from Death Mountain. From now on, we'll have to rely on ourselves. Have you two prepared enough Nethersea Spirit Liquid?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen nodded without saying much. Qin Tian continued, "In that case, let's not waste any time and leave right away."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Ever since he had approached Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang, Qin Tian had seemed a bit worried.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, neither Su Jingzhen nor Shuang Jiang objected to his urgency.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The three of them drank a bottle of Nethersea Spirit Liquid each and then flew away from the temporary outpost platform.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The moment the Nethersea Spirit Liquid entered their bodies, it transformed into a layer of dark energy that enveloped them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As expected, it prevented the countless souls from attacking them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"This works well!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The next moment, Shuang Jiang's aura suddenly erupted.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"=""> A massive surge of energy enveloped Su Jingzhen and Qin Tian as she began traveling at full speed.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I... Immortal Emperor!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">When Qin Tian sensed Shuang Jiang's aura, he immediately stuttered.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Earlier, he had noticed that Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang didn't carry the aura of the Nethersea, leading him to conclude that they were newcomers.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As a seasoned veteran of the Nethersea, he didn't trust those who had been roaming the area for too long.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, he never expected that the partners he had casually chosen would include an Immortal Emperor.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Qin Tian felt his scalp go numb.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He was only an Immortal Lord, and while that cultivation level was quite impressive, it was nothing in the face of an Immortal Emperor.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He had initially thought that even if Su Jingzhen and Shuang Jiang were slightly stronger Immortal Lords, he would still have ways to manage the situation.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But now, everything had fallen apart. In the presence of an Immortal Emperor, any tricks he had up his sleeve seemed utterly childish.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Brother Qin, is something wrong? Are you unhappy with my comrade's cultivation level?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen asked with a faint smile, noticing Qin Tian's reaction.
