Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

She chuckled lightly and said, "I didn’t expect that as soon as I arrived at the pavilion, Fellow Daoist Chu would bring me such a big deal.

However, the amount of spirit medicine and demon cores you need is considerable, and these artifact refining materials aren’t easy to find.

The pavilion can’t provide them all right now."

Chu Ning wasn’t surprised. Although the spirit medicine can be gathered over time,

his main concern was the elixirs he used to enhance his cultivation.

But those artifact refining materials, those were what Chu Ning needed for the upcoming refinement of the Water Spirit Sword.

Having suffered from the scarcity of materials for refining the Golden Spirit Sword before, Chu Ning naturally wanted to prepare in advance.

These items, not being abundant in the Northern Cold Land, were hard even for Frost Moon Pavilion to gather instantly.

Chu Ning then pointed to Xi Wenxia and said:

"Her name is Xi Wenxia, she comes here once every six months. If you have any relevant materials prepared, you can give them to Miss Bai Ruo for her."

Lu Liqin agreed to this without hesitation.

Then she called Bai Ruo over to introduce her to Xi Wenxia.

At this moment, Lu Liqin smiled again and asked:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, your talismans were quite popular in the pavilion before. I hope you can continue to provide them in the future."

Chu Ning, however, did not commit fully, and vaguely replied:

"I’ll be in seclusion for a long time to heal my wounds, so making talismans can’t be as frequent as before.

However, every six months, I will have her bring some talismans over.

As for the quantity, we’ll see then."

Hearing this, Lu Liqin and Tang Jinchuan exchanged a glance, unable to say much more.

As for Chu Ning, he sold the demon beast carcasses to Frost Moon Pavilion, traded for some needed alchemy materials,

and then headed to Upper City with Xi Wenxia to introduce her as the liaison, and familiarize her with the place.

Xi Wenxia, following behind Chu Ning, hesitated before asking:

"Elder Chu, are your injuries alright?"

"It’s nothing serious. Some secluded cultivation will do me good." Chu Ning replied, then asked Xi Wenxia:

"You heard what I told them just now, right?

Come to my cave mansion once every six months, and I’ll tell you which materials are needed. Bring some talismans along too.

Then take the things back. As for your own sales stall..."

Initially, Chu Ning thought to tell her not to bother, since most of the items for low tier cultivators he had were sold off.

And those low tier talismans, Chu Ning naturally had no time to draw anymore.

But then he considered that Xi Wenxia needed cultivation resources, and just running errands every six months wouldn’t yield her much.

After thinking it over, Chu Ning suddenly asked:

"Do you know Talisman Technique?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Xi Wenxia’s face:

"I only know a few very basic ones. The power of these talismans isn’t great, so few people use them."

After hearing this, Chu Ning nodded and said nothing.

In her heart, Xi Wenxia vaguely guessed that Chu Ning might intend to teach her the Talisman Technique, feeling both anticipation and reluctance to ask outright.

Thus she silently followed Chu Ning to the cave mansion on the fourth level of Upper City.

Standing outside the cave mansion, Chu Ning glanced at another cave mansion not far away.

Jia Twenty.

Apparently, this cave mansion had no resident before, but now seeing the restriction activated, it clearly had an owner.

"It must be Situ Yan."

This thought flashed through Chu Ning’s mind, and he calmly opened the restriction to his cave mansion.

Leading Xi Wenxia inside.

For Xi Wenxia, this was her first time entering such a high-level cave mansion, she couldn’t help but curiously observe her surroundings.

Though there was no sight of treasures like Snow Crystal Ganoderma or Spiritual Clarity Fruit inside the cave mansion at the moment.

Ling Xiaobai and Golden Thunder Eagle were still kept in Chu Ning’s Spirit Beast Bag.

But even the other rare spirit medicines and spirit fruits were enough to astound this female cultivator who had just reached Foundation Establishment not long ago.

At this time, Chu Ning took out several special Sound Transmission Talismans he refined himself from his Storage Bag and handed them to Xi Wenxia.

"Every six months, when you arrive outside the cave mansion, activate this talisman. I’ll sense it from inside and let you in."

As he spoke, without waiting for Xi Wenxia’s response, he took out a Blank Jade Scroll from his Storage Bag.

Then casually selected a few Talisman Making Techniques to record on it, handing it over to her.

"Practice making these talismans in the cultivation room within the cave mansion for the next few days.

In ten days, I’ll check on your progress."

"Yes, Elder!" Xi Wenxia immediately accepted it and responded.

Chu Ning then casually gave her some Talisman Brushes, Talisman Ink, and some Talisman Paper for basic and intermediate talismans that had been sitting unused in his Storage Bag for a long time.

Then he entered his own cultivation room.

With Xi Wenxia here, dealing with things like Snow Crystal Ganoderma and Spiritual Clarity Fruit was naturally inconvenient.

As for other matters, there was no issue.

Sitting cross-legged in the cultivation room, Chu Ning’s breathing returned to normal immediately.

Then he controlled the Earth Vein Essence Fire in his body, separating a strand to begin refining again.

Ten days later, having refined another strand of essence fire, Chu Ning exited the cultivation room.

Entering the cultivation room where Xi Wenxia was, Chu Ning glanced at the scattered talismans before her and said:

"Choose the talisman you’ve practiced most over these days and draw it for me to see."

"Yes, Elder!"

Xi Wenxia replied and began to draw a Basic Upper Grade Talisman that she chose.

With her Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s cultivation, drawing this Basic Upper Grade Talisman was naturally not difficult.
