Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

The Cyan Wind Eagle and the middle-aged man quickly engaged in battle.

Tantai Song had just been knocked over by the Cyan Wind Eagle, and although the subsequent strike did not inflict severe injuries.

At this moment, he naturally dared not stay nearby any longer.

With a grim expression, he maneuvered around the battling Tier Eight Great Demon and the middle-aged Nascent Soul Cultivator, then retrieved a magic robe from a larger storage bag at his waist and put it on again, before flying toward Wu Lingwei.

Still shaken, he naturally failed to notice the small storage bag on the ground.

At this moment, although Chu Ning was tempted by the storage bag, he dared not make a move as two major Nascent Soul Cultivators, one human and one demon, were just nearby.

However, Chu Ning soon noticed that as the magical combat proceeded, the human and demon gradually began to move farther away.

Though Golden Core Cultivators and Tier Seven Demon Beasts were arriving in succession.

They also dared not enter this area.

"Perfect timing!"

Just then, the Cyan Wind Eagle and the middle-aged man, having exchanged several rounds of blows, retreated.

The Cyan Wind Eagle, although in its true form, suddenly spoke human words.

"I never thought that fabricating the news about a Spiritual Clarity Fruit would not only attract so many Golden Core Cultivators but even draw in Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Human cultivators are truly foolish."

As these words spread, the faces of the cultivators present changed drastically.

"So the Spiritual Clarity Fruit was fake news!"

"It turns out to be a deliberate trap by the Demon Race!"

At this moment, the first thought of the cultivators was naturally to flee directly. Since there was no Spiritual Clarity Fruit here, the cultivators had no desire to fight.

However, not only were there four Tier Eight Great Demons here, but there were also dozens of Tier Seven Demon Beasts.

Even if the cultivators wanted to escape, they were no longer in control of the situation.

The Cyan Wind Eagle and the brocade-robed middle-aged cultivator resumed their magical combat, while the other cultivators were only focused on quickly breaking free from the demons they were fighting and escaping.

They had no time to worry about anything else.

"It’s a good opportunity to escape, but I might as well give that storage bag a try!"

Hiding underground, Chu Ning muttered to himself. Instead of immediately surfacing, he used the Spirit Earth Shadow Escape Technique to retreat toward the outside of the valley.

After covering a considerable distance in this manner, Chu Ning patted his Spirit Beast Bag.

Releasing the Iron Rock Beast.

Among the spirit beasts nurtured by Chu Ning, the Iron Rock Beast had the lowest level, only at the peak of Tier Three, just a step away from becoming a Tier Four Demon Beast.

It had long been surpassed by the Golden Thunder Eagle.

But as an Earth Attribute Demon Beast, it was indeed most suitable for the task at hand.

If the risk proved too great and the Iron Rock Beast got targeted, at worst he would only lose a Tier Three Spirit Beast.

The Iron Rock Beast, massive yet agile underground, quickly maneuvered to the spot beneath the storage bag under Chu Ning’s command.

It burrowed upward, exposing just its head, and its gaze flickered in the air briefly.

The next moment, the Iron Rock Beast re-burrowed into the ground.

Even while engaged in battle, the middle-aged Nascent Soul Cultivator and the Cyan Wind Eagle noticed the Iron Rock Beast’s presence.

However, after sensing that it was merely a Tier Three Demon Beast, they paid it no mind.

They merely assumed the Iron Rock Beast to be one of the valley’s demon beasts, emerging briefly before being startled back underground by the presence of many potent demons and cultivators.

Thus, neither the middle-aged cultivator nor the Cyan Wind Eagle discovered that when the Iron Rock Beast submerged again, the storage bag that had been on the ground was subtly pulled into the earth with it.

From a distance, Chu Ning observed that neither the cultivators nor the demon beasts battling in the air paid any mind to the Iron Rock Beast, and was instantly overjoyed.

He directed the Iron Rock Beast to swiftly grab the storage bag with its mouth and hurriedly return, stashing the storage bag away quickly.

Once the Iron Rock Beast was back in the Spirit Beast Bag, Chu Ning Earth-Escaped toward the valley’s exit.

The cultivators and demon beasts fighting mid-air naturally did not anticipate that a Middle Stage of Golden Core Cultivator was slipping away right under their noses.

After escaping nearly twenty miles, Chu Ning finally halted. Using his divine sense to scan his surroundings, he found no cultivators or demon beasts present.

Chu Ning quickly emerged from underground.

The Spirit Earth Shadow Escape Technique certainly wasn’t slow, but it still couldn’t quite match the airspeed of the Divine Wind Escape.

"Hmm, the Spiritual Qi here is quite abundant!"

As Chu Ning pondered, his gaze swept across the area and he couldn’t help but raise an eyebrow slightly.

"Did something just burrow underground?"

Cautiously, Chu Ning quickly probed the area using his divine sense.

He soon discovered, about fifty feet beneath the ground before him, two colorful, infant-like spiritual fruits dragging a foot-tall spirit plant, speeding underground.

Though the two spiritual fruits’ directions seemed inconsistent, causing the spirit plant to veer left and right.

"Could these be... the Spiritual Clarity Fruits?"

Light flashed in Chu Ning’s eyes.

The Cyan Wind Eagle just said that the appearance of the Spiritual Clarity Fruit in Snow Mist Valley was merely a fabricated lie.

It was actually a trap set for human cultivators.

But now, those infant-like spiritual fruits were precisely in the form of the Spiritual Clarity Fruit that Wu Lingwei mentioned.

Furthermore, even the Black Death Demon Situ Yan acknowledged its existence.

It seemed unlikely to be fake.

This thought flashed through Chu Ning’s mind rapidly, and almost simultaneously, he had already reburrowed underground.
