Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

Chapter 661: Chapter 284: Two Secret Techniques, Snow Crystal Mushroom Spiritual Liquid

At this moment, Chu Ning was silently pondering what the few people might have discussed just now, but his facial expression remained exceptionally calm.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, you’ve waited long enough!" With a cheerful smile, Wu Lingwei approached Chu Ning and spoke.

Then she reached into her Storage Bag, and suddenly, several Jade Boxes and Jade Bottles appeared before her eyes.

"One hundred and twenty North Stream Grass, a hundred Fire Lotus Flowers, two hundred drops of Colorful Lotus Water..."

As Wu Lingwei introduced them, a fleeting look of joy appeared on Chu Ning’s face.

He had previously shown a not-so-cautious demeanor in front of the other, so naturally, he had to maintain this character now.

In fact, Chu Ning’s current joy was indeed from the heart.

With the Spirit Medicine in hand, he nearly gathered the herbs needed for refining the three types of Spirit Pills.

If tomorrow’s trade fair could bring some more Spirit Medicine, he would basically have everything.

Next, he would spend some time researching the effects of the herbs, finalizing the Pill Formula, and then proceed with Alchemy.

At least for several years, he wouldn’t need to worry much about his Cultivation Resources.

As for the Demon Core, he wasn’t too bothered since he had hunted quite a few in recent days.

If he used them up, he could just go hunting again.

Seeing the joy on Chu Ning’s face, Wu Lingwei casually asked:

"Are you preparing to refine pills with such a large amount of Spirit Medicine, Fellow Daoist Chu?"

"Fellow Daoist Wu, this matter concerns Mr. Chu’s cultivation, so I must beg your pardon for not divulging it," Chu Ning replied with a laugh.

Wu Lingwei didn’t press on but said:

"It’s just that with so much Spirit Medicine, the Talismans you provided before wouldn’t suffice.

For quite some time, you might need to help our Frost Moon Pavilion with Talisman Making."

Listening to this, Chu Ning naturally replied:

"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Wu, since Mr. Chu promised this, it will be done.

You can give me the Spirit Medicine in batches, and I will come to collect them regularly.

However..."

At this, Chu Ning took out some Talismans from his Storage Bag and handed them to Wu Lingwei.

"Consider these Spirit Medicines as prepaid. Fellow Daoist Wu, please do not sell them to others.

Otherwise, when Mr. Chu comes to collect them, they might not be available."

Wu Lingwei accepted a batch of Advanced Talismans, observing their excellent quality, and immediately said:

"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Chu, Frost Moon Pavilion has been in Ice Island Immortal City for over a thousand years, and our reputation is trustworthy."

Having completed the transaction, Chu Ning didn’t linger and bid farewell to Wu Lingwei before leaving.

Wu Lingwei then gestured to a young and beautiful Female Cultivator not far away.

"Bai Ruo, please see Fellow Daoist Chu off."

"Fellow Daoist Chu, if Lingwei is not present the next time you visit the pavilion, Bai Ruo can assist you in fetching the Spirit Medicine."

Chu Ning recognized her as the Female Cultivator who led him upstairs on his first visit to the pavilion.

He nodded, "In that case, I’ll trouble you, Miss Bai."

Bai Ruo immediately smiled sweetly and spoke politely.

She then guided Chu Ning downstairs.

Once Chu Ning’s figure disappeared, Wu Lingwei looked at the Talismans in her hand, lost in thought.

"It seems he wasn’t lying when he claimed to be a Talisman Master, as these Talismans are indeed his creation.

Yet, I wonder how he came to possess such a Talisman Making Technique from the Northern Cold Land. As far as I know, no faction there possesses such skill."

Being a long-term trading partner, Wu Lingwei naturally had to investigate Chu Ning’s background.

But except for knowing that Chu Ning arrived at Ice Island Immortal City a few years ago, she found nothing else.

Chu Ning kept to himself and devoted himself to secluded cultivation, rarely interacting with outsiders.

As for the Spirit Medicine Chu Ning required, Wu Lingwei had specifically asked the pavilion’s Alchemist to study them.

Unfortunately, there was nothing conclusive, for these Spirit Medicines covered a wide variety.

Even when combined with a Demon Core, they couldn’t be used in Alchemy.

Wu Lingwei was doubtful that Chu Ning could improve the Ancient Alchemy Secret Manual and no longer held such suspicions.

As for Chu Ning, after leaving Frost Moon Pavilion, he went directly back to his Cave Mansion.

Sitting in his Cultivation Room, Chu Ning casually activated an Array Minor Restriction.

It was something he had specifically set up before, mainly to block any detection.

He thought it might be necessary if he had to handle relatively sensitive matters and wanted to avoid being spied upon.

Like now.

Chu Ning casually took out two Storage Bags, which belonged to Gu Feng and Yun Qianshan.

After erasing their imprints, Chu Ning poured out the contents of the two Storage Bags.

Suddenly, two large piles of items appeared before him.

Chu Ning first focused his attention on the pile of items from Yun Qianshan, finding, besides dozens of Middle Grade Spirit Stones, several excellent Artifact Refining Materials.

Unexpectedly, he also found over ten Fire Lotus Flowers.

This was exactly what Chu Ning had previously sought to purchase from Frost Moon Pavilion and was one of the Spirit Medicines he urgently needed.

In addition, some of the Spirit Medicines were common in the Market.

They probably weren’t acquired from Snow Mist Valley.

"Could it be that Yun Qianshan spent all his time searching for the older Snow Crystal Ganoderma, resulting in so few other items?"

Chu Ning thought as he casually took out a Jade Box from his Storage Bag.

It was the one that fell into his hands during the encounter.

However, Chu Ning wasn’t in a hurry to open it, as the Jade Box still had a Talisman affixed. He planned to study it later.

So he set it aside and continued processing other items.

Soon, he found two more items of interest in the pile.
