The Master Of Spirit Plants - Chapter 517
Xiao Jinting said sulkily to Flame, who perched on his shoulder, “You knew they would explode themselves?”
Flame said indifferently, “Yes, to be sure. I’m learned, and there is nothing that I don’t know about.”
Xiao Jinting said sullenly, “Why didn’t you tell us?”
Flame said indifferently, “Why are you so angry? You didn’t die.”
Xiao Jinting was speechless.
Flame sighed. “They were only Golden Core puppets. Why are you so scared? You are a coward. You like to make a big deal of everything. What if you run across the self-explosion of Nascent Soul puppets?”
Xiao Jinting said sulkily, “Don’t jinx it.”
Flame said sullenly, “You are ungrateful. It’s a kind reminder, but you think I’m a jinx. Don’t you know I’m a noble beast?”
Looking at the beast perching on Xiao Jinting’s shoulder, Xu Lingfeng got curious.
He had long since learned from Xu Muan that Xiao Jinting had an arrogant beast, but he hadn’t had the chance to meet it. Now he agreed with Xu Muan that the beast was arrogant.
Looking at the insolent beast, he wondered how Xiao Jinting managed to tolerate such a rude beast.
Yin Chongyang said wonderingly, “Mr. Xiao, your shield is extraordinary.”
He looked at Xiao Jinting’s shield with envy. When the puppets exploded, the shield blocked most of the force and protected them from the attack.
He thought that Xiao Jinting’s weapons were all outstanding, such as the Tripod of Heaven and Earth, Soul Bell, the invincible spiritual swords. He was amazed to see the shield. It was lucky for a Nascent Soul to possess one of the weapons, and Xiao Jinting had them all in his possession.
Xu Lingfeng looked at the shield, which got dented and cracked from the blast.
He said with concern, “Jinting, your shield is damaged.” He stared at the shield and narrowed his eyes. “No way.”
To his surprise, the dents and the cracks disappeared quickly. The shield had been restored.
He widened his eyes. “What is it made of?”
Xiao Jinting smiled and put away the shield. “I used the ordinary material.”
Xu Lingfeng pursed his lips in disbelief. The material could restore itself, and it had an excellent defense capability. How could Xiao Jinting say it was an ordinary material?
Xiao Jinting smiled. The shield was made of Immortal Wood, which could restore itself quickly.
After he tossed the Immortal Crystal into the Spiritual Spring, the spring changed, as well as the Heaven Thunder Wood and Immortal Wood, which seemed to turn into Immortal plants. Xiao Jinting felt a mixture of pleasure and anxiety with the change. The good thing was that the plants had better qualities, and the bad thing was that he would need more spiritual stones to grow the plants.
Xiao Jinting glanced at Flame, consoling himself that Flame was interested in humans and beasts instead of spiritual stones. Otherwise, he would be short of spiritual stones.
The attack of the Golden Core puppets made Xiao Jinting and the rest more cautious on the journey.
…
A few days later, Flame’s guess came true, and they ran across two Nascent Soul puppets. Thankfully, unlike the Golden Core puppets, which were common, there were only two Nascent Soul puppets.
Flame said proudly, “Finally, they come across our path. I told you we would encounter them.”
Xiao Jinting said sulkily, “Shut up.”
Flame said sullenly, “I give you good advice, but you are too arrogant to take it. Your arrogance will kill you.”
Xiao Jinting clenched his teeth and said, “Thanks for your advice.”
Flame said with bright eyes, “Don’t mention it. It’s good that you admit your mistakes. If you want to return my kindness, you should get me ten Nascent Souls like you.”
Yin Chongyang felt a chill go down his spine. He thought, “Ten Nascent Souls like Xiao Jinting? How dare the strange beast make such a request? It’s impossible to find ten Nascent Souls like him.”
Xiao Jinting sneered. “In your dream.”
Flame sighed. “I knew I can’t count on you, so I don’t have much hope.”
Xiao Jinting snorted coldly. “I’m glad you are aware of it.”
Flame took a contemptuous glance at Xiao Jinting.
“Although Nascent Soul puppets are insignificant to me, they are precious to cultivators. I guess we are approaching the destination since such precious puppets were sent to stop us.”
Xiao Jinting said, “There seem to be people ahead. They are not from Sacred Sect.”
Flame looked ahead.
