Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

The unfolding events on the island were naturally unknown to Chu Ning and his companions.

The group swiftly flew towards the Central Sea Region.

Fortunately, although the island where the Gold and Silver Bird cultivated was in the Outer Sea, it wasn’t too far from the Central Sea Region.

So it didn’t take long before the five of them entered the Central Sea Region.

This allowed everyone to breathe a small sigh of relief.

Compared to the Outer Sea, although the Spiritual Qi here was mixed and there were plenty of demonic beasts,

demonic beasts of Tier Eight or above were unable to enter for some reason, and there were almost no Tier Seven demonic beasts either.

The few of them were in the Middle Stage of Golden Core, so lesser-ranked demonic beasts posed even less of a threat to them...

"How about we rest on the island where we gathered earlier?"

At this moment, Chang Lingshan suggested.

They had just been accidentally injured by the Celestial Thunder triggered by the Array, and didn’t have time to recover, yet they had continued to exert their Magical Power to rush here.

His usually cheerful face now looked somewhat pale and unwell.

The others were mostly in the same condition, so they all agreed quickly.

Although Chu Ning wasn’t injured and didn’t need to regulate his breath right now,

it wasn’t the time for him to voice any objections.

Immediately, the four of them flew towards the island where they had previously met with Kong Yipeng.

Before leaving, Kong Yipeng hadn’t removed the Array Formation Tools, so the array was still intact at the moment.

After landing on the island, Chang Lingshan led the group to the place where Kong Yipeng had arranged the array.

Then he took out a jade token from his Storage Bag and said:

"Originally, Fellow Daoist Kong also thought that using the exorcism array might consume a lot of Magical Power, so he intended to rest here on the way back to the Ice Island Immortal City.

He had given me a Restriction Jade Token to activate the array. Fellow daoists, how about we meditate and heal within the array?"

None of them had any objections, and after hearing this, Chu Ning also joined them.

To be honest, although the array that everyone had set up earlier didn’t kill the Gold and Silver Bird and instead triggered its transformation thunder tribulation,

Chu Ning still recognized its power.

He was somewhat curious about the array that Kong Yipeng had set up.

Thus, Chang Lingshan used the jade token to break the restriction, and the group entered the array together.

Perhaps because it was only meant for temporary meditation and cultivation, the coverage of the array wasn’t very large,

only spanning about twenty zhang.

However, it was quite cluttered inside, with piles of various stones.

The ground also had obvious traces of writing that had been obliterated.

"It seems that Kong Yipeng was deducing the array here before."

Chu Ning mused to himself, and from these things, he could deduce that Kong Yipeng must have stayed here for a while.

No wonder during the gathering of cultivators in Ice Island Immortal City, he entrusted everything to Chang Lingshan.

Once inside the array, everyone settled down cross-legged in different spots.

And Chang Lingshan, who seemed to have a deep friendship with Kong Yipeng, looked somewhat melancholic upon seeing these things.

He sighed and said:

"Fellow Daoist Kong was indeed a prodigy, cultivating with arrays to the late stage of Golden Core, always turning bad luck into good.

This time, he wanted to kill the Gold and Silver Bird, hoping for one last fight to see if he could seize the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul Stage.

Who knew..."

At this point, Chang Lingshan sighed lightly.

"The Great Dao is unpredictable. We cultivators never know which will come first, opportunity or unexpected events."

After hearing Chang Lingshan’s words, the group fell silent.

Every one of them had reached the Middle Stage of Golden Core, none without experiencing life-and-death situations.

Not to mention distant events, even moments ago, they had been on the brink of death.

Chang Lingshan reflected aloud, but it was only for a moment before he returned to normal.

"My fellow daoists, even though there was an accident in this adventure I arranged on behalf of Brother Kong,

you all did your best, so the rewards I promised earlier will certainly not be reduced."

Speaking, Chang Lingshan took out several items from his Storage Bag, which were the promised rewards Kong Yipeng had shown them earlier.

With a wave of his hand, the items flew into the hands of the others.

In Chu Ning’s hands was a piece of Golden Goblet Wood.

Seeing Chang Lingshan’s actions, everyone’s expressions improved slightly.

Even though there were twists and turns, they managed to get the benefits.

As for Kong Yipeng’s probable demise, everyone merely sighed and lamented a little.

Except for Chang Lingshan, nobody else present had a deep relationship with him.

Immediately, everyone put away their rewards and began to take elixirs for meditation and healing.

Chu Ning stored the Golden Goblet Wood in his Storage Bag and smiled slightly.

Earlier, in the thunder tribulation, the tail feather of the Gold and Silver Bird dropped, and he had picked it up casually.

Now, having also acquired the Golden Goblet Wood, his mission was accomplished.

Besides, on the island, he also gathered a few spirit plants with the Qi of Geng Metal, yielding a decent harvest.

While others needed to meditate and heal, Chu Ning did not. He only needed to operate the Five Elements Chaos Technique briefly to fully recover his magical power lost to the array and flight.

However, he couldn’t help but feel a bit puzzled inside.

"While practicing the Five Elements Chaos Technique just now, I seemed to vaguely sense an energy sediment within my body.

But this energy didn’t seem to enhance the cultivation of the Five Elements Chaos Technique. Could it be..."

At this moment, Chu Ning recalled that he vaguely felt a hint of body tempering after being struck by the thunder earlier.

He immediately began to operate the Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique.

It is naturally best to practice the Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique with physical movements.

But currently in front of many people, he could only run his magical power internally.
