Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 364 - 176: Ancient Sect Token

"This pattern..."

Chu Ning found an ancient-looking token from among the many items in Song Cheng’s storage bag, unsure of what material it was made from.

However, the pattern on it was extremely familiar to Chu Ning.

One side of the token had a depiction of a demon beast in a bird-like phoenix form.

The other side depicted a demon beast that resembled a bull.

These were exactly the two patterns Chu Ning had seen on the armrests of the two main thrones in the hall of the ancient sect ruins.

Chu Ning had obtained the Double Fire Ring and the Thundering Bead from those armrests, so he remembered these patterns vividly.

"This token must be related to that ancient sect, and these two patterns should symbolize the sect."

Chu Ning pondered to himself, feeling a silent sense of awe.

"Being a loose cultivator in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands does have its freedoms, but it also has its inconveniences.

The channels to obtain information are too limited, unlike in the Cyan Creek Sect, where you can inquire within the sect for any news.

Even when trying to learn about the happenings in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, my long years of solitary training in the cave mansion aren’t convenient."

Thinking of this, Chu Ning had a contemplative expression.

He had considered this issue before.

For instance, during the previous upheaval of the Cen Family, he hadn’t been timely informed.

Otherwise, he might have been able to meet with Cen Zijin.

"Perhaps I should find a couple of assistants.

After reaching Foundation Establishment, even with so many spirit pills and medicines, my cultivation speed is slower than before.

I must dedicate most of my time to cultivation every day.

In this way, I can still pay attention to rare spirit medicines like the Flame Wood Twin Fruit and the Iron Soul Flower.

But I really don’t have the energy to manage the more common spirit plants and medicines."

Yet, these spirit plants and medicines are still needed.

After all, the Cyan Wood Primordial Yang Pills in his possession only last about half a year; in future refinement.

He would still require Primordial Yang Fruits and many auxiliary spirit medicines.

"To be precise, these dozens of acres of spirit fields have been mostly neglected for over half a year; getting one or two people to help manage them wouldn’t be a bad idea."

Thinking this, Chu Ning glanced at the other items on several individuals.

He naturally collected all the spirit medicines, not to mention the spirit stones.

Among the magical artifacts, there were several that caught Chu Ning’s attention.

Among them was a flying boat.

"Each of their storage bags contained one artifact, and judging by the refining method, they’re extremely old.

They must have been obtained from the outer hall."

With this, Chu Ning felt no pressure using them.

As for the other good artifacts, Chu Ning didn’t pay them much attention.

After all, he already had magical treasures for both attack and defense.

This flying boat caught Chu Ning’s eye immediately.

His previously purchased Wind Chasing Shuttle was merely an advanced magical artifact and no longer sufficient for his needs.

This flying boat was not only a top-level magical artifact, but judging by its size, it could carry six or seven people at most.

Chu Ning tested it slightly and found its speed more than twice that of the Wind Chasing Shuttle.

He was naturally pleased to make this his future flying magical artifact.

After sorting the obtained items a bit, the next day, Chu Ning slightly adjusted the layout of his cave mansion.

On the third day, Chu Ning went directly to Jiang Hongguang’s cave mansion.

"Why has Elder Chu come in person? You could have just sent a message if you needed anything."

Hearing Chu Ning’s arrival, Jiang Hongguang immediately went out and welcomed Chu Ning into the hall.

"A Foundation Establishment cultivator!"

As Chu Ning entered the hall, a commotion immediately arose inside; there were over twenty people present.

Most of these people were at the middle stage of Qi Refining, with only a couple at the late stage, merely at the seventh layer of Qi Refining.

Chu Ning smiled and followed them into the hall, his gaze sweeping over the crowd with some surprise.

"Oh? Fellow Daoist Jiang has guests?"

Jiang Hongguang smiled and transmitted a message to Chu Ning:

"Elder Chu, this hidden spirit vein is beneficial for the gathering of Spiritual Qi on Feihong Island.

The island recently opened a few more spirit fields, which was unknown outside before, so I couldn’t say anything.

But now that the Thousand Islands Alliance knows, and with a Foundation Establishment cultivator like yourself,

I thought of leasing some of these spirit fields to bring in more spirit stones."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning understood that these people were those intending to lease spirit fields on the island.

He promptly smiled and said directly:

"That’s perfect; I’m looking for two people to help me manage my spirit fields."

Chu Ning didn’t transmit this message, so everyone in the hall heard it, and many Qi Refining cultivators’ faces flashed with excitement.

Managing spirit fields for a Foundation Establishment cultivator was much more desirable than leasing fields for themselves.

As everyone was eagerly preparing for Chu Ning’s selection, 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Chu Ning suddenly looked toward an old and young pair in the crowd.

"Would you two be willing to come to my cave mansion?"

The small old man questioned by Chu Ning was initially slightly stunned, but the next moment, his face blossomed with joy.

"I am willing," the elder said.

Chu Ning nodded immediately and said, "Alright, come with me."

Immediately, the small old man led the girl, full of joy, and followed Chu Ning out of the hall.

Seeing Chu Ning about to leave, Jiang Hongguang quickly escorted him out.
