The Sweet Life of Superstar and His Goddess Wife-Chapter 460: Reckless Jiang Nuo

What’s this thing? It’s so hard to open?

Jiang Nuo wondered to himself.

However, if he didn’t open this thing, he felt uneasy, so he could only clutch the box to his chest and study it carefully.

Luckily, the space ring Mu Qiuniang gave him contained many items. Especially after she learned of his particular interest in talisman formations, she had copied a large amount of ancient texts for him to consult.

Jiang Nuo began seeking clues based on the patterns on the Talisman Paper.

Maybe he had gotten lucky recently, or perhaps for some other reason, he actually found something. Following the instructions, Jiang Nuo bit his finger and drew a Sealing Removal Talisman on the Talisman Paper.

This was an Ancient Sealing Talisman, used to seal powerful demons. The stronger the demon’s power, the stronger the talisman’s power, as it sustains the seal by absorbing the demon’s spiritual power.

Jiang Nuo was only at the Enlightenment Stage, so he couldn’t open it; he had to force it open using the power of blood.

The premise was that the seal’s power had already diminished.

Jiang Nuo thought, if the demon’s power hadn’t weakened to a certain extent, he couldn’t open it anyway, so why not try it? If even he could open it, how weak must the demon inside be? There was nothing to fear.

Just in time, while the demon was so weak, he could totally catch it and give it to his wife as a gift. His wife was so formidable; she deserved a powerful demon as a pet.

Thinking this, Jiang Nuo cast the final mantra onto the seal: "Open!"

"Boom..."

With a light sound, the box creaked open.

Jiang Nuo saw that inside the box was a thumb-sized jade bottle.

Hmm? Another layer of sealing?

This layer of sealing was easier to open; he just needed to recite the unsealing spell to open it.

"Hiss~"

Another light sound, Jiang Nuo heard something. However, only a puff of black smoke emerged from the jade bottle, and then there was nothing.

As he was puzzled, he suddenly felt a pain in his Sea of Consciousness.

Then, Jiang Nuo found himself forcibly dragged into his Sea of Consciousness. There, a mass of black mist greeted him, which pounced at him as soon as he entered, trying to bite him.

Jiang Nuo was startled.

Remembering the time he devoured the vampire’s essence, he hurriedly recited a spell and bit back without hesitation.

Damn it!

Wasn’t it supposed to be a demon?

Wasn’t it said that only when the demon’s power was eliminated could he open it?

Why is this thing in front of him not a demon, and it even wants to devour his soul and seize his body?! Isn’t this something only certain evil cultivators would do?

"%￥#@...*&#￥#..."

The black mist bit fiercely, so Jiang Nuo bit back even more fiercely. No way he would admit defeat; if it ate a lot, he would eat even more, never eating less than it.

In the Sea of Consciousness, after all, it was Jiang Nuo’s domain, so he evidently had a greater advantage over the black mist there.

It seemed the black mist hadn’t expected Jiang Nuo to be so bold, not only daring to bite it, but knowing how to "devour" Immortal Techniques.

The black mist screamed miserably: "Ah..." and began to bite even more furiously.

"Ah... You’re biting me?! I’ll devour you!" He dared to consume even the essence of vampires, so why fear it?

Jiang Nuo, bold as ever, began eating without knowing what the opponent was. After a few bites, he clearly felt his body was a bit full, a bit hot, and a bit uncomfortable.

Yet seeing the opponent’s massive black mist body still smiling proudly and biting his soul, Jiang Nuo got even angrier and bit back without caring.

Even if I am stuffed to death, I’ll bite you to death!

Mu Qiuniang was meditating in the courtyard when her heart suddenly twitched a little, feeling somewhat unpleasant.

She had to stop meditating and calculated with her fingers; this calculation made her face take on a drastic change.

Then, she vanished from where she was.

When she reappeared, she was in the grand hall of that underwater palace.

Inside the hall, Mu Wanlian was chatting with the octopus monster when she suddenly saw Mu Qiuniang appear, and she was shocked: "Mom, why are you here?!"

The octopus monster was directly frightened by Mu Qiuniang’s unhidden spiritual pressure, several of its tentacles going limp, collapsing on the ground: [I... Immortal...]

"Your father is in trouble!" Mu Qiuniang said and entered the room Jiang Nuo had entered earlier, casting a barrier with a flick of the hand.

Mu Wanlian wanted to follow but was blocked by this barrier, both anxious and angry: "You octopus monster, what did you do to my dad?!"

The octopus monster looked innocent: [I did nothing, really, I swear, I was just chatting with you...]

"If you did nothing, why would my dad have trouble? How could you alarm my mom? I’m telling you, you’d better confess honestly. If anything happens to my dad, even if my mom destroys you dozens of times, it won’t be enough!"

The octopus monster trembled in fear: [I swear, truly, I did nothing. I genuinely wanted to present treasures, to recognize your dad as my father, to get a Transformation Pill, to transform... Humans are such diligent, aspiring demons with shapeshifting ambitions!]

"Bull! If you are a good demon, what about the people you ate before?" Mu Wanlian panicked and cursed, losing her classy demeanor.

[Wuwuwu... I was hungry, couldn’t find food, so I had to use humans as a temporary fix. But I swear, I really don’t eat humans casually, human meat is sour, not good at all...]

...

Inside the room, Mu Qiuniang saw that Jiang Nuo had turned entirely red, puffed up by the abundant spiritual energy like an overinflated balloon, even floating in mid-air, ready to pop if pricked.

Seeing him like this, she was both angry, amused, and slightly exasperated.

She always advised him to cultivate properly, yet he wouldn’t listen. Why does he always end up in such messy situations once he’s out of her sight?

Even if you’re anxious to advance in cultivation, you can’t just consume anything.

Did he really think devouring the vampire’s essence last time was typical? If she hadn’t been watching nearby, even ten lives wouldn’t have saved him from the vampire’s schemes.

Yet, no matter how angry she was, she couldn’t just abandon Jiang Nuo. She had to cast a spell to bring Jiang Nuo back to the ground.

Then, she summoned a bunch of silver needles and, with a swift motion, stuck them into him, turning him into a porcupine.

Only then did she sit cross-legged, placing her palm on his shoulder and closing her eyes.

Within Jiang Nuo’s body, countless spiritual energies gathered in his meridians, akin to a highway that initially allowed four cars abreast but was now crammed with ten heavy trucks, significantly distorting his body’s framework and preventing any movement.

His meridians were stretched to their limits, like a balloon about to burst if pushed any further.

Mu Qiuniang quickly absorbed all that chaotic, rampant spiritual energy into her own body, navigating it through the Eight Diagrams Spiritual Energy Flow in her Sea of Consciousness, channeling it into her dantian, entrusted to the lovely Nascent Soul Baby.
