Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

Tang Jinchuan heard Chu Ning’s words and his face immediately showed a look of shock and doubt.

"What are you saying? This time, there are one or two hundred Golden Core Cultivators below the Middle Stage of Golden Core, including Foundation Establishment Cultivators, probably numbering hundreds or even thousands?

And only a dozen of you made it out?"

Upon saying this, Tang Jinchuan’s face suddenly changed, and he quickly asked:

"What about the cultivators above the Late Stage of Golden Core?"

"I don’t know!" Chu Ning shook his head.

"When we came out, we didn’t see a single Late Stage Golden Core Cultivator.

However, we did hear Fellow Daoist Wu’s shout earlier."

On his return, Chu Ning had learned from his conversation with Chang Lingshan that they too heard Wu Lingwei’s shout.

So at this moment, he didn’t hide anything.

He truthfully informed Tang Jinchuan of the shout he heard from Wu Lingwei.

Upon hearing Chu Ning’s words, Tang Jinchuan’s face changed slightly again.

He couldn’t even bother to speak with Chu Ning anymore and directly flew off towards the direction of the Upper City.

With flying restrictions lifted over Ice Island Immortal City, it seemed those limitations no longer applied.

As Tang Jinchuan flew into the Upper City not too long after, two shocking auras surged into the sky from Changkong Hall.

They directly flew towards the depths of Snow Mist Valley in the Snow Peak Mountain Range.

"Nascent Soul Cultivators are on the move, this time those Demon Beasts are in trouble."

The crowd that had just entered the city looked up at those two stunning flashes.

They couldn’t help but show different expressions on their faces.

Only Chu Ning knew that even with Nascent Soul Cultivators present, facing those Demon Beasts did not offer a guaranteed advantage.

"Earlier in the valley, there were four Tier Eight Great Demons; who knows how the situation stands now?

There’s still more than a day before the snowstorm reappears in the valley.

If these two Nascent Soul Cultivators enter the valley, who knows how many they can rescue."

"Fellow Daoist Chu!"

As Chu Ning was thinking this way, a female cultivator around thirty years old, wearing the magic robe of Divine Sound Valley, called out to him.

This woman only possessed Early Stage of Golden Core Cultivation, and perhaps because of the bloody battle at the valley entrance, she appeared quite exhausted.

However, she wasn’t tall, with a somewhat delicate demeanor that was quite endearing.

After seeing Chu Ning look over, she cupped her hands and expressed gratitude:

"I am Meng Ling of Divine Sound Valley. I’m deeply thankful for Fellow Daoist’s assistance, allowing me to escape safely.

Due to changes in Snow Mist Valley, our sect has suffered great losses. I must return to the valley immediately to report to the elders of the sect.

Great gratitude is unspeakable, I can only repay the favor later. Farewell, I hope that if you have the opportunity to visit Cold Cloud Continent, you can let me know, so I can show you the hospitality of the host."

Upon hearing the sincerity in her words, Chu Ning also cupped his hands with a smile and said:

"You are too kind. I also wanted to leave the valley and join forces against the enemy."

Meng Ling exchanged another polite sentence, then directly bid farewell and left toward the direction of the teleportation array in the city.

After her, several other cultivators also expressed their gratitude to Chu Ning before saying their goodbyes.

The others were fine, but one from the Illusion Spirit Sect caught Chu Ning’s attention, making him feel a bit awkward.

If the Illusion Spirit Sect truly learned of his actions, they might resent him deeply.

In a blink of an eye, thirteen out of eighteen people had left.

Now, only five people remained in Ice Island Immortal City.

Aside from Chang Lingshan and Wu Rongfeng, the other two were loose cultivators from the city, whom Chu Ning had met twice.

However, they weren’t that familiar.

The group of five entered the Upper City, exchanged a few words of farewell, and then first departed.

At this point, Chu Ning hesitated before asking:

"Fellow Daoists Han Shihong and He Yongzhi have not been seen all along; do you know..."

Upon hearing Chu Ning’s question, Wu Rongfeng’s face instantly showed a trace of sadness.

"In that valley, we were entangled by two Tier Six Demon Beasts. Old He stayed behind for me to leave first.

Even after fighting for so long at the valley exit, I haven’t seen him come, he is probably in grave danger."

Hearing these words, Chu Ning sighed softly, knowing that in this situation, He Yongzhi likely couldn’t survive.

But he still comforted, saying:

"Fellow Daoist Wu, don’t rush to conclusions, there are other Late Stage Golden Core, and even Golden Core Late Stage Peak Cultivators following behind.

If Fellow Daoist He encounters them, he still has a chance to leave the valley."

Wu Rongfeng nodded lightly, "That’s all we can hope for."

Chang Lingshan took over the conversation at this point:

"I lost sight of Junior Brother Han during the treasure hunt and haven’t seen him since.

I just don’t know if Junior Brother Han is still in the valley or has encountered some accident."

Speaking, Chang Lingshan sighed and said:

"The situation faced in the valley this time was far beyond expectations; not many treasures were found, and a lot was lost.

Even my life nearly was lost.

However, it’s unprecedented in Northern Cold that Demon Beasts would enter the valley to attack cultivators.

It seems the major forces will take action."

After the three exchanged a few heart-felt words, Wu Rongfeng thanked Chu Ning again and returned to their respective cave mansions.

Chu Ning, claiming he needed to recuperate from injuries, politely declined Chang Lingshan’s invitation to sit at his cave mansion.

Back in his own cave mansion, he let out a long sigh of relief.

"This journey to Snow Mist Valley was truly perilous.

Luckily, I didn’t get caught up in that battle between the Demon Beasts and the cultivators, or I’d be facing uncertain odds."

After the contemplation, Chu Ning habitually planted the Snow Crystal Ganoderma first.

Then returned Ling Xiaobai and the Golden Thunder Eagle to the Spirit Beast Room.
