Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 133 - 107: Incomplete Magical Treasure, Earth Spirit Bracelet
Hundred Treasures Pavilion, a three-story building.
It is not far away from the Spirit Talisman Pavilion in the Outer Sect.
When Chu Ning went to the Spirit Talisman Pavilion before, he saw it from afar, so he knew the location.
Chu Ning entered the Hundred Treasures Pavilion and glanced around.
In the hall similar to that of the Spirit Talisman Pavilion, there was only a young man around twenty-seven or eight years old sitting behind a desk, leaning lazily on a chair with his eyes closed, appearing to be dozing off.
Chu Ning approached and sensed that the other party seemed to be at the Late Stage of Qi Refining, not yet at the Foundation Establishment Stage.
He clasped his fists, bowed, and saluted:
"Greetings, Senior Brother, I have returned from Yan Workshop and came today to..."
"I know." The young man still looked lazy.
"You all came today to receive rewards; they already told me."
"You came quite early, head up to the second floor from the east and find Elder Tong."
Chu Ning wanted to ask more, but the young man had already closed his eyes again.
He didn’t say anything further, clasped his fists towards the young man again, and proceeded to the second floor from the east side.
It seemed that the interior of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion was partitioned, with different staircases.
Chu Ning arrived on the second floor and found himself directly outside a room.
Standing by the door was an elder with white hair and a beard, his face marked with many wrinkles, staring at Chu Ning who just came up the stairs.
Chu Ning looked around, not seeing anyone else, then immediately saluted and asked:
"May I ask if you are Elder Tong?"
"I am indeed." The elder looked at Chu Ning, stroking his long beard.
"Are you here to collect your reward? What is your name?"
"Chu Ning!"
Upon hearing this, the elder took out a Jade Scroll and examined it.
Taking this opportunity, Chu Ning was also observing this Elder Tong and found that he appeared to be only at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining, which greatly surprised him.
"Being called an elder, even if it’s just an elder of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion, should imply a higher level, so how is he only at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining?
Could it be that this elder also has some secret technique to conceal his aura, only revealing his cultivation as Middle Stage of Qi Refining?"
Chu Ning pondered this in his heart.
His own Yin Wood Spirit Body had such capabilities, though others might not possess this spirit body, he knew some special secret techniques also had this function.
"Do you think my cultivation is quite low?"
Just as Chu Ning was thinking this, Elder Tong suddenly asked.
Chu Ning was startled, thought for a moment, and then honestly replied:
"Disciple is indeed a bit surprised, sensing the senior’s cultivation is only at the Middle Stage of Qi Refining, perhaps due to some secret technique."
Elder Tong glanced at Chu Ning.
"You are quite honest; many people think so but come up with all sorts of reasons to brush me off.
It’s not about secret techniques, this is my real current cultivation.
I was severely injured once, it’s fortunate to have survived, let alone considering any further cultivation..."
Perhaps it was because of Chu Ning’s straightforwardness just now, Elder Tong even explained a little.
But soon, he resumed examining the Jade Scroll.
"Chu Ning, requested a damaged Intermediate Defense Magical Artifact, killed 3 disciples of the Yin Demon Sect."
After speaking, Elder Tong put down the Jade Scroll, looked at Chu Ning, and said:
"You may now choose another Defense Magical Artifact of the same level, and I will reward you with an Intermediate Attack Magical Artifact, come with me."
"Senior." Chu Ning did not immediately follow, but quickly spoke to stop Elder Tong.
When the elder looked over, Chu Ning swiftly added:
"I wonder if I can choose a different artifact, not this attack artifact, opting for a higher-level defense artifact?"
"Exchange for an Advanced Defense Magical Artifact?" Elder Tong stroked his long beard.
"Well, given that you killed 3 Yin Demon Sect disciples this time, I’ll allow the exchange.
This Advanced Defense Magical Artifact is indeed precious."
With that, Elder Tong continued walking forward.
Chu Ning immediately followed, thought for a moment, and asked daringly:
"Senior, if the disciple wishes to exchange for a Top Level Defense Magical Artifact within the sect, I wonder..."
"Top Level Defense Magical Artifact?" Elder Tong shook his head slightly.
"That’s something even Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators scramble for, you’re better off not thinking about it.
Among cultivators below the Golden Core Stage, apart from some special artifacts and incomplete magical treasures, it’s the most sought-after.
The Inner Sect might have it, but the Outer Sect’s Hundred Treasures Pavilion does not."
Chu Ning felt a slight disappointment upon hearing this, but also noted Elder Tong’s mention of incomplete magical treasures.
"Incomplete magical treasures?" Chu Ning murmured as he heard this term.
It was the second time he had heard this term, the first being in Wind Gorge Square, where those frauds mentioned it once.
However, at the time Chu Ning had dismissed it as they were frauds.
Now hearing Elder Tong mention it, he couldn’t help but be curious.
At this moment, Elder Tong had already brought Chu Ning to a stone gate, pressed a spot within a restriction, and the stone gate slowly opened.
As he stepped inside, he spoke aloud.
"Golden Core Stage cultivators can refine magical treasures, of which there are two types. One is a Lifebound Magical Treasure refined with their own pill fire.
The other is an ordinary magical treasure not refined with pill fire, more susceptible to damage compared to Lifebound Magical Treasures.
Thus, there are often some incomplete magical treasures that still retain some of the original treasures’ power, but with many restrictions on their use."
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning’s interest was piqued and he quickly inquired:
"Senior, what are the general restrictions?"
It seemed Elder Tong was quite willing to enlighten others, and without reservation, he directly answered:
