Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

Chapter 518 - 237: Refining the Jade Bone, Breaking Through Again

"Senior Brother Chu, you really kept us in the dark!"

He Yanmao chuckled bitterly at this moment.

Even on Gong Yuyuan’s dignified face, there was now a smile.

"Chu Ning, it really is you, good! I haven’t yet congratulated you for helping the Sect win the competition, and now you’ve already achieved another great merit for the Sect!"

"Previously, I hadn’t noticed, but after everyone talked about your divine techniques,

I observed carefully and vaguely sensed that something seemed to block my probing."

Ge Liuyang, on the other hand, couldn’t help but smile with a bit of pride:

"This mask took me nearly a month of effort!"

Hearing the surprise in everyone’s words, Chu Ning cupped his hands and said:

"Elders, fellow disciples, I had no choice but to do this.

If I hadn’t constantly concealed my identity and was discovered by those from the Daluo Sect, this trip wouldn’t have gone so smoothly."

Yu Changge chimed in:

"That’s true, regardless of whether there’s a chance to have a one-on-one with Sun Shifan at the Wolong Valley ruins.

Once out of the valley, if Ao Langtian knew you were in the team, they likely wouldn’t let us leave easily."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Seeing that everything was becoming clear, Yu Changge smiled and said:

"All of you nephews have worked hard this time. Once the Sect has organized these inheritances, we will reward you according to your needs.

The events in Wolong Valley must not be spoken of outside to avoid trouble. Everyone focus on cultivation within the Sect for a while.

Nephew Chu, remain here; the rest of you may leave for now."

"Yes, Sect Leader!"

All the disciples left one after the other.

When everyone had left, Yu Changge sat in the main seat, and after all the elders sat down,

Yu Changge gestured to a position at the end and said:

"Nephew Chu, have a seat!"

Upon hearing Yu Changge’s words, Chu Ning hesitated slightly.

At this moment, Yu Changge smiled and said:

"By status, you’re the Senior Brother of the Jiuhua Sect; by contribution, you have retrieved numerous inheritances for the Sect.

By strength, you can even defeat Golden Core Cultivators.

You completely deserve this seat."

Upon these words, everyone in the Council Hall laughed.

Chu Ning also smiled slightly and immediately sat at the seat at the end.

Next to him was a female elder, Fu Lihong.

This Elder Fu should have achieved Foundation Establishment at a young age, and with techniques to preserve youth, she appeared to be only in her forties.

Seeing Chu Ning seated, she immediately smiled and said:

"Nephew Chu, I must thank you for saving my disciple this time.

I thought there were many people in the Sect, and I thought to let her go in and gain experience, which was too presumptuous of me.

If not for your intervention, this girl would have had difficulty surviving."

"Elder Fu, you’re too polite..."

Chu Ning had just begun to speak when Yu Changge at the main seat spoke again:

"Nephew Chu, we won’t delve into the specifics of how you killed a Golden Core Cultivator of the Daluo Sect.

You have made great contributions this time, and the Sect will reward you. Keep the magical treasures given to you before.

All the inheritances you brought back from the Sect are here, so tell us what else you might need."

Chu Ning thought for a moment and said, "Disciple wishes to study the Five Elements Chaos Technique, and also to see if there are any Body Refining Type Cultivation Techniques and Secret Techniques, as well as Spirit Fruits, and Elixirs.

As for the techniques of Alchemy and Artifact Refining, I can view them at the Alchemy Pavilion and Artifact Refining Pavilion in the future."

Speaking thus, Chu Ning paused slightly before continuing:

"My cultivation is rather special, and to advance to the next level, I need a large amount of Spirit Pill and Wondrous Medicines.

I also require a long period for focused cultivation, and I don’t want to be disturbed by this matter."

Yu Changge immediately agreed and said:

"No problem, you can take the Five Elements Chaos Technique now.

As for Body Refining Secret Techniques and Spirit Medicine, you can choose now, or wait until we’ve organized them, and you can select then.

Focus on your cultivation; the Sect will ensure nothing distracts you."

Yu Changge continued, "I’m worried that this matter will spread sooner or later and that the Daluo Sect will not let it go easily.

However, you can rest assured, the Sect will have countermeasures."

Hearing this, Chu Ning nodded slightly.

He did not hesitate, immediately rising to take the jade scroll of the Chaos Five Elements Technique from a shelf.

His Divine Sense then swept through the shelves containing the Jiuhua Sect’s cultivation techniques but found nothing particular.

However, when his Divine Sense scanned through the many spirit medicines and elixirs, Chu Ning took two jade boxes and a jade bottle.

Chu Ning openly took several obviously valuable items in front of a few Golden Core Cultivators.

Among the ten Golden Core Cultivators present, none thought anything amiss.

After all, whether during the previous competition or this entry into Wolong Valley, Chu Ning’s contributions were undeniable.

After placing these items in his Storage Bag,

he raised his head to look at Yu Changge and said:

"Sect Leader, for the remaining items, I’m not in a rush, I’ll check again once the Sect has organized them."

Yu Changge nodded and said, "Alright!"

Knowing that the Sect Leader and several elders had more matters to discuss afterward, Chu Ning was not particularly interested in these specific Sect affairs, so he excused himself and left.

Once Chu Ning’s silhouette departed, Ling Cang sighed and said:

"I really didn’t expect the Daluo Sect to have arranged Golden Core Cultivators to enter.

If not for Chu Ning accompanying them this time, our disciples might have been completely wiped out."

Yu Changge nodded slightly and said thoughtfully:

"We were somewhat careless, thinking the disciples had Magic Mirrors to quickly regroup, combined with a few Foundation Establishment Late Stage Cultivators each holding a magical treasure.
