Chapter 529: Chapter 529

After Long Xue came back to the sect, the ginseng was in a low spirit.

Xiao Jinting put the ginseng in the jade space. After a few days, he was surprised to find that the ginseng was good at growing plants.

After the ginseng entered the jade space, it reorganized the garden and set up some arrays to grow the herbs better.

The plants in the garden got exuberant.

The ginseng was a plant, and it could feel the needs of the other plants in the garden. Its help eased the burden on Xiao Jinting.

Xiao Jinting signed a contract with the ginseng. If it betrayed him or revealed his secrets, he would kill it with the spell that he cast on it.

Although it was not honorable to do such a thing, Xiao Jinting had to be cautious because of the importance of the jade space.

The ginseng loved to stay in the jade space, and the Growing Earth and spiritual spring excited him.

Long Xue didn’t stir much trouble after she came back to the sect, and Dongcheng Yang was relieved. The secret realm formed by fragments of the Immortal World was open for exploration, and the number of cultivators who perished there had been increasing.

Xiao Jinting started to sell pills for Immortal Crystal from the secret realm. His pills were of high quality, and they sold well.

He made many ginseng pills with the ginseng’s bathing water, and people fought to buy them.

By selling a large number of expensive pills, Xiao Jinting could afford to grow the three divine trees and the Pagoda Lotus.

…

Time flew, and over thirty years went by.

Green Cloud Immortal Sect was placed on alert. Over twenty years ago, the sect set up a big array that could ward off Deity Transformation cultivators. Six months ago, the sect was closed, and no one was allowed to enter or go out.

Xiao Xiaodong and the others stayed in the sect and put on guard against any intruders.

Xu Lingfeng looked at Xiao Jinting’s hill and frowned. “Xiao Jinting is making the advancement to Deity Transformation. Can he make it?”

Li Yi glanced at him and said, “If he can’t make it, you won’t have a chance.”

Xu Lingfeng was speechless.

Thunder clouds of different colors were gathering in the sky.

Li Yi looked up at the sky and said, “It’s time.”

Bolts of colored lightning cracked on the cave of Xiao Jinting.

The thunder wouldn’t stop as if they were determined to kill Xiao Jinting.

Xu Lingfeng said in surprise, “Is the thunder retribution of Deity Transformation so fierce? When my ancestor made his advancement, his retribution was not so dangerous in the image.”

Li Yi pressed his lips. “Muan said that Xiao Jinting had fiercer retribution than others in his advancement, especially after he practiced the Heavenly Demon Body Refining Manual.”

Xu Lingfeng nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. “Really? I’m relieved.” He was weaker than Xiao Jinting, and he would not survive the thunder retribution if it was the same as that of Xiao Jinting.

The bolts of lightning were dazzling, and Xiao Jinting was in the center of the retribution. They could not see him as he was shrouded in the lightning.

Xu Lingfeng vaguely saw dozens of spiritual swords, which formed an array to ward off the thunder.

Xu Lingfeng gritted his teeth and said, “Although the heavenly thunder is aggressive, Xiao Jinting will survive because of his strong weapons.”

Li Yi widened his eyes and gasped. “His spiritual swords seem to absorb the force of the thunder.”

Xu Lingfeng narrowed his eyes and thought, “Xiao Jinting is cheating. His life weapon is made of Heavenly Thunder Wood, which absorbs thunder. He has made so many spiritual swords, which can help him survive the retribution.”

Chen Lifeng stood on the top of a hill. Chen Xu was next to him.

Chen Lifeng had been in seclusion for several decades. If Chen Xu hadn’t come to tell him that Xiao Jinting was making the advancement, Chen Lifeng wouldn’t have come out.

Chen Lifeng said, “Xu, your father-in-law is powerful.”

Chen Xu smiled and said, “Yes, he is.”

Chen Lifeng said, “By the way, I heard that your parents-in-law have a son, but the child doesn’t come out.”

Chen Xu said with a smile, “Xiaobao is shy.”

A visitor from some sect once suspected the identity of the ginseng and almost caught it for food. After the incident, the spoiled ginseng hid in the jade space. It had been several decades, but the ginseng still looked like a four-year-old, so Xiao Jinting didn’t dare to let it out.

The destructive bolts of lightning cracked on the ground, which was dented. Chen Lifeng sensed the earth trembling underneath his feet.

He looked at Xiao Jinting’s cave and gave a wry smile. “The thunder retribution for Xiao Jinting is awful. I don’t dare to make the advancement if I have to face such fierce retribution.”

Chen Xu was lost for words.

Xiao Jinting survived the retribution and advanced to Deity Transformation. The continents were shocked.
