Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 283 - 154: Joining Forces to Ride with the Immortal

Chapter 283: Chapter 154: Joining Forces to Ride with the Immortal

"Fellow Daoist Cen, you are right on time."

Chu Ning flew out of the cave mansion and saw Cen Zijin, dressed in white clothes and wearing a veil with an ethereal aura.

"Would you like to rest inside the cave mansion for a while?"

"No need, let’s go directly."

Cen Zijin finished speaking, waved her hand, and a brocade handkerchief about three feet in size appeared beside her.

The handkerchief was a delicate light green with embroidered floral edges, inlaid with golden silk and amber; indeed, it seemed to be a high-quality flying magical artifact.

"Do you have a flying magical artifact, Fellow Daoist?"

Upon hearing Cen Zijin’s words, Chu Ning asked with a hint of surprise:

"Shouldn’t there be islands inhabited by other cultivators near Pinghu Island? Aren’t we going to use the teleportation array?"

Cen Zijin, hearing this, looked directly at Chu Ning with bright eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, if you don’t mind attracting attention by traveling with me, we could use the teleportation array."

"Then let’s forget the teleportation array." Chu Ning immediately waved his hand.

He realized he hadn’t considered the matter thoroughly; given Cen Zijin’s fame in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.

If he were to walk openly with her, not to mention whether those few families might suspect him as the Talisman Master behind Cen Workshop.

Just the attention alone, Chu Ning felt would be unbearable.

At this moment, as he was about to retrieve the Wind Chasing Shuttle from his storage bag,

Cen Zijin suddenly spoke:

"Fellow Daoist, come aboard. This artifact can hold two people, and we can get there faster."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning did not take out the Wind Chasing Shuttle, and directly ascended, landing on the brocade handkerchief.

Cen Zijin instantly activated her magical power, and the two of them transformed into a streak of light, disappearing from their original location.

This brocade handkerchief was only three feet in size, and the two couldn’t stand completely apart.

Thus, the actual space between them was less than two feet.

As the artifact flew, a refreshing fragrance wafted into Chu Ning’s nose.

Chu Ning instinctively looked forward and found that although Fairy Cen’s veil covered the front tightly, it didn’t obscure much from the back.

Chu Ning could see the fair skin faintly revealed under the delicate ears.

Due to their slightly offset positions, they could see each other’s faces.

Indeed, she was as otherworldly as an immortal, as exquisite as a painting.

As a Foundation Establishment cultivator, Cen Zijin was exceptionally sensitive to external perceptions.

At this moment, naturally, she noticed Chu Ning’s gaze.

She realized that inviting him onto this artifact wasn’t a very good idea.

As her eyebrows furrowed slightly, Cen Zijin was about to speak.

But then she suddenly saw that Chu Ning’s gaze was withdrawn.

His eyes were no longer on her face but were looking to the side.

Cen Zijin’s eyebrows gently relaxed, and she steered the artifact, accelerating towards Pinghu Island.

The brocade handkerchief was very quick, taking just over an hour for the two to arrive above Pinghu Island.

"On Pinghu Island, there is a type of Demon Beast called the Netherworld Bat, which can be troublesome if encountered in the air.

Let’s walk once we’re on the island."

Cen Zijin spoke as she began to descend. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Chu Ning naturally had no objections.

The two landed inside the island and sensed the spiritual qi briefly; Chu Ning curiously asked:

"The spiritual qi here is quite abundant; why has no cultivator considered clearing the island... huh."

Chu Ning suddenly paused halfway through his sentence.

He had initially wanted to say, why hadn’t anyone thought of clearing the Demon Beasts to use the island for cultivators to reside.

But as he tried to extend his divine sense just now, he found that the range of his divine sense was greatly reduced.

About only half of what it usually was.

Chu Ning naturally directed his divine sense away from Cen Zijin, so this Foundation Establishment cultivator did not notice Chu Ning’s divine sense probing.

Only when Chu Ning exclaimed did she look at him:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, did you notice something amiss?"

Chu Ning carefully sensed again and discovered indeed there was something interfering with divine sense on this island.

But he shook his head and said:

"It’s nothing particularly unusual; it just feels like my mind is less clear after entering the island."

Upon hearing Chu Ning’s words, Cen Zijin’s bright eyes reflected a hint of surprise.

"Your intuition is sharp, Fellow Daoist Chu. Indeed, the island interferes with a cultivator’s divine sense. However, since you haven’t released your divine sense, you don’t feel it as clearly.

The deeper into the island, the less the interference with divine sense.

Previous elders from the family have searched before, but unfortunately couldn’t find the cause."

As they walked deeper into the island, Cen Zijin continued:

"Even Foundation Establishment cultivators find their divine sense greatly taxed if they stay too long here, especially if they extend their divine sense.

And Qi Refining cultivators are naturally even less suited to long-term stays on this island.

So, even though the Spirit Vein here is a Tier Two Upper Grade, it isn’t suitable for cultivation."

Upon hearing Cen Zijin say this, Chu Ning naturally no longer extended his divine sense.

Nonetheless, he thought for a moment and took out the Puppet Bird from his storage bag.

This artifact could offer a visual range of a hundred feet, and it had helped him quite a few times.

Cen Zijin looked curiously at Chu Ning’s actions, and upon seeing the item in Chu Ning’s hand provide a visual aspect, she was somewhat surprised.

"Oh, this artifact is quite wondrous and can be quite helpful."

"Yes, Fellow Daoist Cen, you know the general direction, right? Point the way, and let the puppet bird guide us."

After Chu Ning spoke, Cen Zijin pointed in the direction, and the two began to proceed forward.
