Chapter 257: Accidental yet Sky-defying Reward

The moment Jiang Ming appeared back in Chuyang Peak, Linglong flew over and hugged him fiercely.

“Didn’t you just go out a while ago? Started missing me already?”

“Before the great battle just now, you left before you had a good rest. What do you think? I was missing a lot and worried to death. How are you now?”

“Full of spirit, ready to fight for another three thousand years!”

“Really!”

“Want to try me?”

“Let’s try then! I’m not afraid of you! But Senior Brother, I’m afraid you might be the one to surrender first!”

“I practiced some mythical special abilities and have forged myself an immortal spear. You’re still too naïve to think that you can shake me down!”

As the two continued to murmur, the fog around the manor slowly rose, and the two of them had returned to their room.

The Dragon Phoenix Heavenly Heart Bed was getting a little bit more overwhelmed time after time.

“The laws have become more stable on the Infinite Realm Battlefield, and it’s now more difficult to accelerate time!” Time Junior Sister sighed, looking at Senior Brother, her real self and the rest who were so impatient and not shy at all really made her feel like she couldn’t help herself anymore.

…

At the side of the cliff, Chang Yiming stood in the courtyard with his arms around Momo, looking at the manor with a complicated expression on his face.

“Yi Ming, are you not going over?”

“I’m not going! You saw the battle just now, right? That level of destruction is at the heaven and the earth level, far beyond the limits of our imagination. I can’t imagine that Head Disciple Jiang has reached such a level. The fact that he was able to return safely in the end means that there’s nothing to be worried about and he should have emerged victorious. I fear that he won’t feel that well after such a battle, so it’s better not to disturb him.”

“You’re right! We can only watch silently!”

“And silently continue our cultivation! Although he was the head disciple back then, he was taken care of by us like he was our Junior Brother. How long has it been since then? I can’t even compare myself to him anymore!”

Chang Yiming was very emotional.

Momo nodded in agreement.

In another area, Xi Yao had also finished her cultivation retreat. As she looked ahead, her expression became more complicated.

She wanted to go over several times and have a look or ask around on what happened. However, she ended up not doing so.

In the end, she couldn’t hold herself back any longer and just when she flew over to find Jiang Ming, she discovered a thick fog around the surrounding of the manor.

“Right after the great battle outside, the two started off their next great ‘battle’ inside already. Isn’t he afraid of dying from exhaustion?” Xi Yao snorted, returned to the yard, and sat herself down.

With a flick of her wrist, a jar of wine appeared. She poured herself a cup and drank by himself. However, there were many signs of confusion written all over her face.

In Jiuyang Peak’s main hall, the first seats as well as a group of elders were gathered around, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

“What can we do?” The Sect Master looked at Gu Hai with a very complicated expression on his face. The other elders looked over as well.

“What we can do now is to do nothing!” Gu Hai stood at the door of the main hall as his eyes were locked on onto Chuyang Peak. He was anxious and restless as well, but forcibly held back his emotions.

Although he didn’t know what happened, it was clear that this was a critical time, and that his disciples cannot be disturbed.

“But…” The Sect Master sighed faintly, “We’ve been watching and watching all this time! As the Sect Master, it really makes me feel aggrieved, helpless, powerless, like I’m the one to be blamed for this. Yet, I can only watch helplessly from a distance!”

“Same goes for me.” Gu Hai turned around and sighed, “All of us sensed the aftermath of the battle just now. What are we able to do about it? What we can do is to just watch silently, and then continue our cultivation!”

“Cultivation…” The Sect Master nodded silently.

At the place where Qingyun Sect was originally located, Liu Changkong and Ye Ming stood side by side in the sky.

“Did you feel that?”

“I’m the old dean. How can I not feel it? Although I don’t know what managed to block it off, I can still feel that if even only a ray of that aura leaks through, it would still crush us to death. It’s simply too terrifying. Even my soul is still trembling from it.”

“Yes, it’s way too terrifying! This also covertly shows that his strength is far beyond common sense. Perhaps, this is also the chance of life that God has given to this world of ours. Ye Ming, what do you think we should do next?”

“Old Dean, I suggest that the school be merged into the Jiuyang Sect. The integration of all forces will be conducive to all our planning.”

“Once we merge with them, we will become ordinary disciples. Can you reconcile this?”

“Old Dean, what’s not to be reconciled to? We are no longer in the mortal world already. It’s their generosity that allows us to stand on our own feet, but we can’t be ignorant. Besides, in the face of great changes, in the face of the immortal realm ahead, if we don’t make changes, we are destined to disappear in the future.”

“Yes, you are right. He may not care whether we are willing to merge with them, but we can’t be ignorant! By allocating everyone at the same place can also allow him to better arrange for cultivation, and let our mortal realm grow up in this world!”

As the two negotiated, they came to a decision.

Three days later, Jiang Ming was on the balcony of Chuyang Peak.

“It’s really delicious!” Jiang Ming’s face was full of smiles, and the melancholy of the ten thousand years of cultivation retreat was completely dissipated from his mind, leaving only a long aftertaste and comfort.

“This is life!” Jiang Ming was even more emotional when he saw the four flower fairies coming to attend to him.

“Yeah, this is life!” Linglong laid on top of him, “It would be great if there were no disputes or hatred, and we can all live a quiet life like this!”

“There will be such a day!” Jiang Ming stroked her long hair, “Just wait for your Senior Brother to kill all the bad guys in the world! The world will then be peaceful.”

Linglong rolled her eyes in response, and softly said, “Senior Brother, am I too weak?”

“With a cultivation base of Tiayi Realm yourself and your nine clones at the Golden Immortal Realm at least, who dares to even say that you are weak?” Jiang Ming snorted, “Stop thinking about nonsense.”

“Yeah, but I’m still ready to go over to the place of inheritance for my cultivation!” Linglong said hesitantly, “If I stay here, I can’t be of much help to you. It’s better for me to continue my cultivation, step into the Great Overarching Realm as soon as possible, and even break through to the Quasi-Sage Realm.”

“Have you thought well about it?”

“I’ve thought well about it!”

“Alright then! How long will it take?”

“One hundred years over there is akin to one year in the outside world. I will definitely return within a hundred years! I will try again to see if I can continue to increase the flow of time inside and cultivate as much time as possible.”

“One hundred years inside? That is equivalent to 100,000 years in the outside world. If you improve the time acceleration more…” Jiang Ming started hesitating, “The longer you practice, the more indifferent your heart will be. It is quite a long time, so I suggest that you leave Phoenix Junior Sister behind. She is already in the Taiyi Realm so it’s not a big problem for her to cultivate slower. We can communicate on a daily basis, so as not to be unfamiliar with each other to the point that you forgot about me!”

“I also intend to do so! It’s so that you can communicate with her every day and keep your attention away from Xi Yao.” Linglong whispered reluctantly.

In the end, she connected herself with the Heavenly Order to go to the place of inheritance.

Jiang Ming was a little disappointed from her leaving.

Phoenix Junior Sister came over to him, laid by his side, hugged his arm and the temperature began to rise, “Senior Brother, you will be all mine from now on. My whole body is almost burning from excitement!”

As her voice fell, her body was directly ignited in flames.

Jiang Ming started to get light-headed from this. He thought, ‘She’s happy? Hey! That’s easy to work with! We’ll just go back into the house, so that she can’t get up anymore!’

Immediately, he did as he thought!

Leisure time always makes people lazy. Other than exercising every day, Jiang Ming was just lounging around on the roof.

Mountain Master Tian Yuan was still recovering himself, and Jiang Ming didn’t know how long it would take for his full recovery.

As he looked at the light on the Eastern horizon, he couldn’t help thinking of Dongfang Chenxi. He was prepared to communicate with the Supreme Order to enter the chat group, and also trade some items at the same time.

However, his expression suddenly changed, and his figure disappeared instantly. He came over to the Immortal medicine garden instead.

The current Immortal Medicine Garden had expanded greatly. Although it had not been carefully managed, it was still in good order. The Immortal lights were flowing, with the aura of vitality transforming into long rivers. The glare from daybreak loomed over as the sun set in the west.

The only thing that was a pity about the garden was that there were very few real immortal medicines because he had no time to plant them. Therefore, most of them were the supreme-grade or the king-grade spiritual medicine in the mortal realm.

They were all basically ripe for harvest already.

“Master!” The four flower fairies, Hua Huo, Hua Yu, Hua Rui, and Hua Jing flew over one after another. They were all one meter tall and were very delicate and sweet.

Behind them were wings that looked like rainbows, fluttering, and sprinkling small sparkles of lights. Although their bodies had not grown, their strength had stepped into the Paradis Realm, and they were a step away from the Extreme Path Realm as well.

It was hard to go slow when they practiced their cultivation here.

“Master!” Several ancient war trees swayed their branches and saluted.

Jiang Ming nodded and looked over at the spiritual fountain.

The supreme-grade spiritual fountain, a reward he obtained in the very beginning, hence was very precious. But now, it was no longer enough for him at this point.

Inside of the spiritual fountain was an Enlightenment Immortal Tea Tree. It used to grow very slowly. Later, Jiang Ming watered it with immortal fluid from time to time, and with the nourishment of Preternatural Soil, it had now matured.

An Immortal plant reaching maturity for the first time. According to its grade, it was only a low-grade spiritual root, but its meaning was totally different. After all, this was planted by him himself, and it was also the first time it matured.

There were 3,000 leaves on the Enlightenment Tea Tree, each of which was crystal clear and imprinted with complex patterns, like the scriptures of the sky. Jiang Ming reached out and grabbed it. The 3,000 leaves flew up and landed in a jade box that he took out. These tea leaves did not need to be fried and could just be brewed directly.

There was a look full of anticipation on his face. Because this was the first time he harvested an immortal item, he thought the rewards would surely not be bad at all. Sure enough, the system prompt sounded.

“Ding: Congratulations to the host Jiang Ming, for the first time harvesting mature immortal treasures. Rewarded one instance of the strongest special ability of the current Heavenly Emperor of Honggu Heavenly Realm today.”

Jiang Ming was very surprised. However, the light in his eyes flickered quickly, and all kinds of ideas and thousands of thoughts poured into his mind.
