Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

"Then let me tell you first, and you can decide if you can agree to it after hearing me out."

Having said that, Di Yan paused and continued:

"The first thing is, I hope to entrust you, after I pass away, to deliver a message to Divine Sound Valley for me."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning couldn’t help but look suspiciously at the other party.

Di Yan sighed lightly and said:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, there’s no need to worry, this journey isn’t dangerous.

I have a friend cultivating in Divine Sound Valley. We had some misunderstandings in the past and eventually became rivals.

While alive, there’s no chance for us to meet again.

But after death, grievances fade; helping me deliver a message could bring her some peace of mind."

Hearing this, Chu Ning vaguely guessed that the person Di Yan mentioned might be the one who gave Wu Rongfeng the message.

He wanted to tell Di Yan, but seeing the other’s indifferent demeanor, he held back.

He didn’t really understand the situation between the two, so it seemed better not to say too much.

Anyway, he would just do as Di Yan said.

So, Chu Ning nodded and said:

"Alright, I will definitely fulfill this task. Hand me the message you want to send, and I will deliver it when the time comes."

But Di Yan shook his head with a calm expression and said:

"There’s no actual message to deliver; you just need to find Zhou Jingyu in Divine Sound Valley and tell her I’ve passed away."

Chu Ning, hearing this, couldn’t help but look at Di Yan in slight astonishment.

But he didn’t ask more questions, simply nodding his head.

At this moment, Di Yan extended his hand and took out an ancient wooden box from his storage bag.

As soon as the wooden box was taken out, Chu Ning smelled a faint scent of ancient wood.

Numerous runes were engraved on it, giving it an air of great mystery.

While Chu Ning was examining it, Di Yan spoke:

"My array techniques were inherited from the Myriad Phenomena Sect of the Celestial Curtain Continent.

The original owner of this item mentioned in their will that they hoped the heir could return this item to the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t reach the Nascent Soul Stage in my lifetime, unable to fulfill that senior’s last wish."

As he spoke, Di Yan’s tone carried a touch of regret, pausing slightly before continuing:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, you’re young and already at the Middle Stage of Golden Core, with divine cultivation skills, and there’s great hope you’ll reach Nascent Soul.

If, one day, you manage to achieve the Nascent Soul Stage, I hope you can help deliver this item to the Myriad Phenomena Sect on the Celestial Curtain Continent.

As for the array techniques I previously received, I’ll hand them over to you along with other array scriptures I’ve compiled."

Hearing this, Chu Ning pondered for a moment.

Di Yan’s request was quite unexpected for him.

Presumably, Di Yan received the array inheritance and this item from that sect several centuries ago.

For such a long time, he hadn’t returned it, and now, meeting for the first time, he handed over such a precious item to a stranger.

It seemed a bit unreasonable.

Chu Ning asked about his doubts, to which Di Yan directly replied:

"Even thirty years ago, I felt confident about achieving the Nascent Soul Stage.

That’s why I never thought of entrusting someone else with this task.

But when I finally wanted to do it, I couldn’t find the right person."

Saying this, Di Yan looked at Chu Ning.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, you’re skilled in the array-breaking techniques from the Celestial Curtain Continent, with such unheard-of divine abilities.

If I’m not mistaken, you must be from the Celestial Curtain Continent.

I don’t expect you to deliver it specifically, just whenever you decide to head to the Celestial Curtain Continent, take a detour to the Myriad Phenomena Sect."

Upon hearing that Di Yan suspected he came from the Celestial Curtain Continent, Chu Ning chose not to elaborate.

After some thought, he extended his hand and accepted the ancient wooden box.

"Fellow Daoist Di, I can’t promise I’ll definitely do this.

But if I genuinely head to the Celestial Curtain Continent one day and have the chance, I’ll visit the Myriad Phenomena Sect."

Upon hearing this, Di Yan’s face showed a faint smile.

"In that case, I’ll leave it to you, Fellow Daoist Chu."

With that, Di Yan turned his head, sending out a yellow light, sweeping numerous items in the wooden house into a storage bag.

Soon after, he handed this storage bag over to Chu Ning.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, this contains the array scriptures I’ve collected and compiled over recent years.

Array materials aren’t many, as I’ve seldom gone out to gather them in recent years, and most materials collected in earlier years have been used up.

I entrust these to you as a reward for your journey to the Myriad Phenomena Sect on the Celestial Curtain Continent."

This time, Chu Ning did not refuse, directly accepting the storage bag.

His goal achieved, and seeing that Di Yan didn’t intend to keep him any longer.

Chu Ning stood up to bid farewell and leave.

Di Yan indeed didn’t stop him, but he still opened a passage in the array restriction, allowing Chu Ning to leave the island directly.

The passage on the island closed, and the white mist reappeared.

"Fellow Daoist Chu, if convenient, you might visit Divine Sound Valley before returning to Ice Island Immortal City."

Just then, Di Yan’s voice unexpectedly came from the island.

Chu Ning turned back, looking at Cloud Concealment Island in surprise, and asked:

"Fellow Daoist Di, didn’t you just say to wait until a year later..."

"I said to wait until I’ve passed, not a year later," Di Yan’s voice came from the island.

Hearing this, Chu Ning’s expression changed slightly.

Before he could speak again, Chu Ning suddenly saw the white mist on Cloud Concealment Island violently churning.

The next moment, the entire island began sinking downward.

And the Spiritual Qi in the area instantly fluctuated.

"This..."

Watching this astonishing scene, Chu Ning couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.
