The Immortal Wife Is Like A Cloud

Chapter 478: A Thousand-Year Chamber, A Single Lamp Illuminates



This time, Su Jingzhen was slightly more experienced than last time.

Although he saw the black door again, his heart was still incredibly shocked.

But he was mentally prepared.

At least he wouldn’t be too surprised.

Here, his divine consciousness autonomously condensed into his body.

It felt as real as a physical body.

This time, although the black brick once again condensed in his consciousness body’s hand, the door had already been opened.

This time he was able to directly cross the gate to the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

As before, his eyes were met with a thick fog.

His vision only extended ten zhang in every direction.

As if sensing his arrival, the black wind leopard and phantom beasts, which he had personally killed with the black brick before, reappeared before him.

Su Jingzhen merely glanced at them.

He didn’t pay too much attention.

His gaze continued towards the deeper part of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

Last time, Bai Suzhen had interrupted him before he could thoroughly investigate what this place was like.

At this time, Su Jingzhen hesitated for a moment before taking a step towards the depths of the fog.

He wanted to see what this Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss was all about.

As he walked, the fog that obscured his vision dissipated behind him.

There was no pressure around him.

It was vastly different from his previous exploration of the canyon.

Soon, Su Jingzhen had walked over ten zhang.

The black wind leopard and phantom beasts, reborn within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, followed him leisurely within ten zhang.

As if filled with curiosity towards him.

At this moment, Su Jingzhen discovered that everything in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, or at least everything within his current vision and beneath his feet, seemed incredibly real.

Beneath his feet was scorched earth.

Although the light was extremely dim, he could clearly sense that the ground beneath his feet seemed to possess a mysterious energy.

The energy felt somewhat disordered and dilapidated.

Within the range of his vision, the earth was crisscrossed with ravines and hills.

At these locations, chaotic energy emanated outwards.

Battlefield!

This word suddenly echoed in Su Jingzhen’s mind.

Yes, everything presented in the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss felt like an ancient battlefield to him.

Although nothing remained, the broken earth seemed to be desperately telling him about the past carnage.

For some reason, the deeper Su Jingzhen ventured into the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, the more a sense of sorrow welled up within him.

“What kind of place is this? What exactly happened here?

If you can truly sense my presence, if you truly appeared because of me,

Then, please offer me some guidance.”

Su Jingzhen stood still, closed his eyes, and murmured these words to himself.

He truly knew nothing about this place.

At this moment, this approach was no different from prayer.

However, as his words faded, the surrounding fog remained silent except for the rustling sounds caused by the phantom beasts and black wind leopards occasionally darting about.

Su Jingzhen opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.

The dark sky seemed like a tattered curtain.

“A thousand-year chamber, a single lamp illuminates.

Since I have arrived here, then let me be the lamp that illuminates this chamber of darkness.

This sky is too gloomy, too dark, and too vast.

It needs some embellishment.”

Su Jingzhen muttered to himself.

In his view, if he were to bring all the inheritances from the starry sea outside, all the stars, to this place, it would seem strangely fitting.

As he continued his self-talk, Su Jingzhen walked deeper into the fog.

The beasts followed behind him, their gazes like watchful predators, yet also resembling some form of protection.

During his journey, Su Jingzhen also tried his best to sense the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix he had previously absorbed.

When he held the black brick in his outer world, he could feel the power of both extreme heat and extreme cold.

This meant that the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix truly existed within the black brick.

They truly existed within this Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss.

And last time he entered here, he had already confirmed that the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix were not reborn here after being killed by the power on his black brick.

They were truly living beings that he had taken in.

However, no matter how he sensed it, he couldn’t detect the aura of the two divine beasts.

“That’s strange.”

He muttered, his footsteps not faltering.

As he ventured further, his vision seemed to grow darker.

Initially, when he first crossed the threshold of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, he could see a range of ten zhang.

Now, he felt he had walked in for about a hundred zhang.

Yet, his field of vision was reduced to only five zhang.

The surrounding mist thickened.

It gave him a rather unsettling feeling.

“It’s called the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, yet why does entering it evoke such sadness?

What is ultimate bliss?

Is it truly as the Buddhists say, that rebirth leads to the Western Pure Land of Bliss?”

In his past life, Su Jingzhen had a deep understanding of various cultivation and fantasy novels, as well as various mythological systems.

He naturally had some knowledge of the Western Pure Land of Bliss.

As he ventured deeper into the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, he increasingly felt that this Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, although vastly different from the legendary Western Paradise, seemed to converge on a similar path in some ways.

Because within this dense fog, a kind of deathly stillness was gradually emanating.

It gradually made his calm state of mind feel rather agitated.

“Clear mind like water, water is the mind, no wind rises, no waves disturb…”

His footsteps continued, but in his heart, he silently recited the Clear Heart Mantra.

He tried to dispel the growing restlessness.

After an unknown amount of time, Su Jingzhen turned back.

The gate he had come through was completely invisible.

He seemed to be trapped within a magical barrier formed of mist.

Unable to see the path ahead or the way back, Su Jingzhen felt a mixture of confusion and anxiety.

He feared that his consciousness would be completely trapped within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss, unable to return to his physical body.

Even with his system, he would be trapped here and die.

As he contemplated this, he focused his thoughts and attempted to dissolve his divine consciousness form and return his awareness to his body.

However, to his horror, no matter what method he used, his divine consciousness body refused to dissipate.

He couldn’t return to the entrance he had come through, nor could he directly return to his physical body.

“Hiss…”

Su Jingzhen’s heart sank further upon realizing this.

If his suspicions were correct, then there was only one possible outcome for his current situation.

He had to fully understand the mysteries of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss within the black brick and completely master its rules.

Or he would be forever trapped here, unable to escape!

“Could it be…that I’ve gone from joy to sorrow?”

After a moment of stunned silence, Su Jingzhen forced a wry smile.

The excitement he had felt when the starry sky was completely activated by Bai Suzhen was now replaced with deep worry.

He had been presented with an unparalleled opportunity for greatness, yet it seemed like everything was working against him.

He always seemed to be walking a tightrope, constantly facing life-or-death situations.

However, after a brief sigh, Su Jingzhen took a deep breath and steadied himself.

“Well, if this is a test for me then I shall accept it.”

His stubborn nature flared up once again.

His vision remained limited to five zhang, but his steps continued forward relentlessly.

Time seemed to flow differently within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. He had no idea how long he had been walking, nor how far he had traveled.

He only knew that he had crossed countless ravines and climbed over numerous hills that resembled mountains.

Every place was desolate and lifeless, devoid of any sign of life.

Apart from the black wind leopard and phantom beast that followed him, he hadn’t encountered any other living creatures.

He had yet to see the Fire Dragon and Ice Phoenix again.

Even his divine consciousness body, forged from pure energy, was beginning to feel weary.

“Clear mind like water, water is the mind…”

He silently recited the Clear Heart Mantra countless times, trying to maintain his composure.

Time seemed to lose all meaning within the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. After what felt like an eternity, he found himself standing atop another hill.

He collapsed onto the ground, exhausted.

At this point, he felt his divine consciousness body weakening and its energy dissipating.

“If this body perishes here, will my consciousness dissipate along with it? Will my main body be affected?”

The thought sent a shiver of fear down his spine.

His desire to rest was instantly forgotten.

He stood up again, his gaze fixed on the horizon.

Suddenly, something caught his eye.

He was standing on a hilltop, but his vision seemed clearer than before.

He hadn’t noticed this before.

Instinctively, he turned his head.

Through the thick fog, he saw a faint glimmer of light flickering in the distance.

In a world of perpetual gray, anything even slightly brighter became incredibly noticeable and precious.

His eyes were drawn to the light, unable to look away.

But then, a smile spread across his face.

“Did I finally find you, or did you come looking for me?”
