Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 103 - 95: Earth Spirit Spring Water, Battle (Part 2)
To Chu Ning’s surprise, there was actually Earth Spirit Spring Water present in this branch.
"Body Tempering?"
Chu Ning looked at the Earth Spirit Spring Water, his eyes flickering.
He cultivated the Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique, naturally making him a Body Cultivator.
However, because the Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique is such an Ancient Body Refining Method, it doesn’t include external Body Tempering methods.
So, he had never tried it before.
But Chu Ning also thought that this Body Tempering might be equally effective for him.
He even thought before, if the Iron Blue Orchid Fruit truly bore fruit, he’d use it for Body Tempering experiments.
But to Chu Ning’s surprise, he encountered Earth Spirit Spring Water now.
Just as Chu Ning was moved, his brows furrowed, and he slowly walked towards a few young pale red spiritual grasses.
This Earth Spirit Spring Water seemed to have been here for quite a while, so why was the Blood Dawn Grass so immature?
This level of Blood Dawn Grass couldn’t be used with the Earth Spirit Spring Water.
And when his eyes landed beside the Blood Dawn Grass, his expression immediately changed.
The soil beside the Blood Dawn Grass was overturned, clearly showing someone had taken something.
"Someone picked this Blood Dawn Grass, and apparently not long ago."
Thinking of this, Chu Ning instinctively thought of Old Man Sun just now, and the people pursuing him.
"Could it be Old Man Sun who picked it, then somehow got discovered by others? Is that why those people are chasing him?"
This thought flashed through Chu Ning’s mind, and his eyes landed on Ling Xiaobai.
Thinking of it this way, it was likely Ling Xiaobai brought him here.
Most likely because it sensed the aura Old Man Sun carried, tracing it back.
"Not good!"
The next moment, Chu Ning exclaimed inwardly, quickly standing up.
"Old Man Sun’s cultivation is lower than those people, escaping might be very difficult.
If those people knew of the Earth Spirit Spring Water here, they’d likely come after it."
Thinking of this, Chu Ning immediately wanted to call Ling Xiaobai to leave.
But then, Chu Ning’s expression slightly changed.
With his keen Divine Sense, he already sensed someone was coming towards the cave from where he and Ling Xiaobai had just come.
"Coming so fast?"
Chu Ning gestured to Ling Xiaobai, and with a flash of movement, he hid behind a stone in the cave.
Concealing his aura, though he thought of putting Ling Xiaobai into the Spirit Beast Bag, he decided against it.
He just instructed Ling Xiaobai not to make any noise.
If something dangerous truly happened, this little guy might be able to help a bit.
Just as Chu Ning had finished hiding, within two breaths, several footsteps approached.
Chu Ning used his Divine Sense slightly, discovering four people were coming.
One of them was Old Man Sun, and the other three were those who had been chasing Old Man Sun.
"It’s really them!"
Chu Ning sighed slightly in his heart.
If it were just Old Man Sun alone, he wouldn’t be too concerned.
But now, there were so many people, and one of them was also at the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining like him, which was a bit troublesome.
He just hoped these people wouldn’t discover him.
But just as this thought crossed his mind, Chu Ning’s brow furrowed slightly.
When he came in just now, he hadn’t been very careful, so there would certainly be footprints or something on the ground.
If someone carefully observed, they might easily be exposed.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning inwardly became vigilant.
Meanwhile, several startled voices sounded inside the cave.
"There’s Earth Spring Spirit Water here!"
After successive sounds, a rough voice echoed in the cave.
"Old Man Sun, there’s actually such a treasure here.
Not bad, not bad, does this mean the Seven-Star Spirit Fruit you and my third brother had was obtained from here?
And you’re worried about the secret here being leaked, so you killed my third brother to silence him?"
"I didn’t kill Liu the Third." An older voice with a hint of helplessness sounded.
Chu Ning recognized it was Old Man Sun’s voice.
At the same time, Chu Ning was slightly startled in his heart.
Liu the Third? Could he be the bearded man he killed before?
"Nonsense!"
The rough voice rang out again now, with a vicious tone. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
"Back then, you and my third brother accidentally found the Seven-Star Spirit Fruit seeds here; you’ve already cultivated Seven-Star Spirit Fruits and made a fortune in Spirit Stones.
Yet my third brother disappeared a few months later. If you didn’t kill him, who did?
You think I’m an idiot, do you?"
After a loud shout, the man snorted coldly:
"If it weren’t for my third brother leaving me some information just in case, and our exceptional patience in tailing you for over a year,
we wouldn’t have uncovered this matter."
"Big brother, why waste your breath with him?" At this moment, another male voice sounded out.
It was the yellow-faced man who stood beside the rough man, and he was at the Seventh Layer of Qi Refining, the highest realm among the three.
"There’s Earth Spirit Spring Water here, and this old man picked the Blood Dawn Grass. Why not just temper your body here while we protect you?
As for the extra Blood Dawn Grass, we can sell it to earn some Spirit Stones."
As he spoke, greed filled his tone.
"Moreover, considering how much Seven-Star Spirit Fruit this old man sold, he surely has a lot of valuable items on him."
"What are you planning?" Old Man Sun’s voice was filled with panic.
"You clearly said to me earlier, if I handed over the Blood Dawn Grass and led you here, you’d let me go."
"Let you go?" Boss Liu laughed coldly.
"Then who will avenge my third brother?"
Hearing this, Chu Ning couldn’t help but understand the whole story.
He began to contemplate whether he should lend a hand to Old Man Sun since, in a way, they might be on the same side.
If those three discovered him, they wouldn’t let it rest easily.
Just as this thought crossed Chu Ning’s mind, the next moment, his eyes involuntarily narrowed.
At that moment, a blue-clothed young man among the three, who hadn’t spoken, suddenly revealed a set of spines.
Immediately, Magical Power was infused, and the spine shot out like red light, aiming straight at Old Man Sun.
The speed of the red light was extremely fast, and coupled with the close distance between them, it almost instantly reached Old Man Sun’s back.
However, Old Man Sun seemed prepared.
At this moment, a yellow light shield suddenly appeared on him, blocking the red light.
"Stop babbling, just finish him off,"
simultaneously, the slightly feminine voice of the blue-clothed youth echoed in the cave.
With those words, Old Man Sun’s face turned livid.
Yet he didn’t say anything more.
Under the protection of the yellow light, Old Man Sun took out several Talismans, rapidly activating them.
Meanwhile, Boss Liu and the yellow-faced man exchanged a glance, seeming to reach a consensus.
The yellow-faced man acted first, wielding a short spear. Once he used his Magical Power, a yellow light shot at Old Man Sun.
He also activated a Defense Talisman, blocking one of Old Man Sun’s white light attacks.
But Boss Liu didn’t attack directly.
When Old Man Sun’s Talisman Spell attacks came, he flashed aside, avoiding them.
The next moment, he charged right at Old Man Sun, a hammer simultaneously appearing in his hand.
Seeing Boss Liu’s action, Old Man Sun’s expression slightly changed.
He activated a Talisman, seemingly an Escape Talisman, and instantly appeared at the cave entrance.
However, the blue-clothed youth was prepared and reached the entrance first. A red light shot over.
Old Man Sun was forced to abruptly stop and then activated another white protective shield to block it.
At the same time, a golden light shot towards Boss Liu.
"This old guy really has a lot of items on him!"
The yellow-faced man exclaimed upon seeing this, his face full of greed.
The short spear in his hand emitted a yellow glow, and his attacks were equally fierce.
Both red and yellow lights attacked simultaneously, breaking Old Man Sun’s Protective Magic Shield instantly.
At the same time, Boss Liu also approached swiftly.
A big hammer smashed down.
As the fierce battle unfolded, the figures of a person and a beast emerged from behind a large stone.
