Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 243 - 143: A Different Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, Completing Magical Power Tempering_3

Chapter 243: Chapter 143: A Different Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, Completing Magical Power Tempering_3

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning immediately chose the second option.

Having just entered this region of Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, it’s best to keep a low profile.

The cultivator wasn’t surprised and just let Chu Ning wait by the array.

Fortunately, there were quite a few people on Colorful Mist Island, and since Thousand Illusion Island is the main island here, there were many people heading there.

Chu Ning only waited for less than the time it takes for a stick of incense to burn before gathering ten people.

After each person paid one Spirit Stone, the cultivator in his thirties activated the teleportation array.

"Is this Thousand Illusion Island?"

Stepping out of the teleportation array, Chu Ning looked around. This island was shrouded in spiritual mist, almost as dense as the ordinary inner sect of the Cyan Creek Sect.

"This island is probably supported by a higher-grade Tier Two Spirit Vein."

Chu Ning thought to himself, but then realized that this was where the Thousand Islands Alliance itself was located, so he was not surprised.

As he walked into the streets, Chu Ning observed carefully. Compared to Colorful Mist Island, there were far fewer ordinary people on this island.

At a glance, surprisingly seven or eight out of ten were cultivators.

Moreover, their levels were higher than those on Colorful Mist Island, with most having cultivation levels at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining or above; those at the Late Stage of Qi Refining were not particularly rare either.

However, those at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining and Qi Refining Perfection were not common to see.

Chu Ning didn’t rush to investigate the places where the various islands recruited helpers; the previous words were just one side of the story from Chen Wangdao.

He somewhat believed it, but naturally, would not believe it all; he needed to inquire a bit further.

Drunken Immortal Tower.

Chu Ning chose this mixed place again.

Although the information heard in such places was mixed and much of it was hearsay, there were still many useful pieces of information.

Compared to Colorful Mist Island’s Drunken Immortal Tower, the Drunken Immortal Tower on Thousand Illusion Island was larger and more crowded.

Most of the people gathered there were cultivators at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining or above.

Many people were even using the Sound Transmission Technique while conversing.

However, under Chu Ning’s strong spiritual sense, these words were all heard clearly.

After two quarters of an hour, Chu Ning left the Drunken Immortal Tower.

"As Chen Wangdao said, a month later is the Thousand Islands Competition.

However, from the discussions in the Drunken Immortal Tower, those islands that are eagerly recruiting now are generally those with relatively average spiritual energy and strength.

Islands possessing a Tier Two Spirit Vein are not worried about not being able to recruit people and will only start recruiting in the last ten days."

With this information in mind, Chu Ning made his decision.

"Although I don’t intend to join those islands with the richest spiritual energy, it still needs to be decent. In that case, I’ll wait a bit longer.

Incidentally, there is a place on this island specifically for loose cultivators to trade, and I can check it out.

There will be many places requiring Spirit Stones in the future, so I might make some talismans in the next few days to sell."

Thinking this, Chu Ning headed towards the gathering place of the loose cultivators on the island to explore first.

After half a day passed, Chu Ning settled into an inn on the island specifically for visiting cultivators.

Though called an inn, it was built on a hilltop and had a rather mystical aspect.

"This room is actually built with special Spirit Rock, which not only can insulate magical wave interference.

Moreover, spells from cultivators below the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment cannot damage it."

Chu Ning examined the room, which was about ten meters big, with some curiosity.

He tried directly releasing a Cangmu Sword Technique, and sure enough, the room’s walls remained undamaged.

"Indeed, it’s a good place for cultivation, but the price is quite high, four Spirit Stones per day.

Even renting for a month costs 100 Spirit Stones."

Chu Ning shook his head; this price was simply not affordable for ordinary cultivators.

However, since it was located near the core Spirit Vein of Thousand Illusion Island, the spiritual energy density was decent.

Moreover, 100 Lower Grade Spirit Stones weren’t much for Chu Ning, and he already had a need for a cultivation space.

So, despite the price not being low, he chose to rent a room for a month.

"The training of the Flame Divine Wood Technique needs to speed up. In this one month, all magical power tempering must be completed.

Meanwhile, catch up on the cultivation that was delayed."

Determined, Chu Ning looked around briefly and then immediately sat cross-legged.

[Flame Divine Wood Technique (Profound Tier Upper Grade), First Layer (90/5000)]

[Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique, Volume One, Unbreakable Tendons (702/1500)]

[Refining Spirit Technique, Second Layer (255/2000)]

In the past three months, Chu Ning was in a place lacking in fire attribute spiritual energy, so he couldn’t absorb enough of it.

Thus, the progress of the Flame Divine Wood Technique was naturally slow.

However, Chu Ning made some gains by solely relying on the transformation and generation of Wood Attribute Magical Power within his body, gaining a deeper understanding of the Wood-Fire synergy.

Because the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi here was relatively abundant, Chu Ning didn’t opt to use any elixirs or Fire Spirit Crystals.

Continuing with the most primitive method, using the grinding skill over time, he persisted in completing the magical power’s tempering transformation.

This cultivation persisted for seven days, passing by in full.

Seven days later, while Chu Ning was cultivating, he suddenly opened his eyes.

[Flame Divine Wood Technique (Profound Tier Upper Grade), First Layer (100/5000)]

Just as he expected, when the proficiency of the Flame Divine Wood Technique reached 100, all his magical power completed the tempering transformation.

Chu Ning casually lifted his hand, and a stream of magical power gathered at his fingertip.

Feeling the fully balanced Wood and Fire Dual Attribute Magical Power on it, Chu Ning nodded in satisfaction.

Almost a hundred days of perseverance had significantly proven its worth.

Not only had it further consolidated his cultivation at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.

Moreover, his control over the Wood and Fire Dual Attribute Magical Power became exceptionally pure and effortless.

As Chu Ning’s mind moved, the magical power at his fingertip instantly transformed into pure Wood Attribute Magical Power.

With another flick, a wisp of Fire Attribute Magical Power appeared on his left fingertip.

The next moment, as Chu Ning willed, the two streams of magical power once again transformed, becoming balanced Wood and Fire Dual Attribute Magical Power.

"The Flame Divine Wood Technique is now truly at its beginning stage, allowing for normal cultivation of this technique in the future.

It’s time to start cultivating this fire attribute technique!"
