Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 310 - 159: Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, Schemes and Evasion_3
According to the information Chu Ning gathered, the White Reishi Grass should possibly be there.
After walking for about five miles, Chu Ning felt a slight stir in his heart.
However, his steps did not falter at all; he continued to walk forward.
He continued to walk about a hundred more feet.
Suddenly, a human figure flickered in front of him, and another person appeared.
Chu Ning was startled, retreating a few feet to the side, while he looked at the other person warily.
When he saw the figure’s red face and black hair.
Chu Ning quickly cupped his hands in a slight bow, "Greetings, Elder."
The red-faced elder’s eyes were like torches, staring straight at Chu Ning:
"Where are you from, Cultivator? What are you doing here?"
"I am a cultivator from Fengya Island, here to gather some Spirit Medicine."
Chu Ning casually made up an identity.
Over the past two years, he had visited many islands to collect Spirit Medicine, and he had also visited Fengya Island.
This island ranks among the top thirty in attributes, possessing a Tier Two Spirit Vein, with many cultivators of the ninth layer.
Also, this island is ranked just above twenty, not too high nor too low, and its presence is not strong among the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.
Saying he was a cultivator from this island naturally made him less conspicuous.
"Fengya Island?"
As soon as Chu Ning spoke, the red-faced elder frowned.
Then, he asked Chu Ning again, "Have you encountered any other Foundation Establishment Cultivators on your way here?"
"Foundation Establishment Cultivators?" Chu Ning shook his head.
"Since entering this island, I haven’t encountered any other cultivators."
Upon hearing Chu Ning’s words, the red-faced elder frowned again, then waved his hand:
"You may go!"
Just as Chu Ning was about to fly away, the red-faced elder suddenly spoke again:
"Is Isle Master Li doing well? Has he been on the island recently?"
"Isle Master Li?" Chu Ning looked confused, glancing at the red-faced elder.
"Our Isle Master of Fengya Island is Elder Zhou Xinquan; I’ve never heard of an Isle Master named Li."
Hearing this, the red-faced elder waved his hand again.
It was only then that Chu Ning quickly left.
Watching Chu Ning’s departing figure, the red-faced elder’s brow slightly furrowed.
"I hope this kid isn’t deceiving me."
Saying this, he shook his head once more.
"I’ve just thoroughly probed him with my Divine Sense; this kid shouldn’t be able to hide anything from me.
But who was it that engaged just now, and could it be that there are other Foundation Establishment Cultivators on the island?"
Thinking of this, the red-faced elder’s eyes hesitated slightly.
"Although uncertain about this place, if something stirs and other Foundation Establishment Cultivators sense it,
it could become a complication."
The red-faced elder murmured lightly, secretly cursing in his heart.
"It’s also that useless He Mingjin to blame; if he had snatched that Fragment three years ago and pieced it together, I would have already found the exact location.
In these three years, I’ve been exploring places with the character ’cave’ in their names whenever I had the chance, almost searching every cave-named place within the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.
Unfortunately, I’ve made no progress."
...
Meanwhile, Chu Ning, who had moved far away, accelerated, heading directly towards the Crescent Cave.
He was in no mood to linger around, especially when a Middle Stage Foundation Establishment Cultivator had appeared on the island.
About a quarter of an hour later, Chu Ning finally found the location known as Crescent Cave.
Crescent Cave was located within a large valley.
In the deepest part of the valley, there was a moon-shaped cave, which was how it got its name.
The White Reishi Grass was exactly growing inside that moon-shaped cave.
Chu Ning hovered above the valley, staring at the moon-shaped large cave in the distance, his eyes flickering slightly.
"Rumor has it that there’s a Tier Two Demon Beast, a Fire-winged Rabbit Demon, inside this cave. It’s best to lure it out first.
The White Reishi Grass grows in the belly of the cave and is originally this rabbit demon’s food, snatching it directly might be difficult." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦
Thinking this, Chu Ning tried to extend his Divine Sense but found nothing.
Slightly frowning, he guessed that the Tier Two Demon Beast was probably deep inside the cave.
Flying down, Chu Ning slowly descended into the valley.
His gaze merely conveyed slight curiosity, the shape of the valley and the position of the Crescent Cave always gave him a very familiar feeling.
When Chu Ning entered the valley and sensed the shapes of the surrounding slopes, a look of realization flashed across his face.
"This place actually bears some resemblance to the Shuiyun Cave’s Ancient Map seen in Wen Yanchao’s Cave Mansion on Shuiyun Island."
Chu Ning was slightly surprised, cautiously moving towards the Crescent Cave.
Seeing that he was less than twenty feet from the cave entrance and that his Divine Sense still hadn’t detected anything.
Thus, he extended his hand to tap his Spirit Beast Bag, releasing Ling Xiaobai.
"Xiaobai, go inside and lure that creature out.
The opponent is fast and can fly, are you confident?"
Hearing Chu Ning, Ling Xiaobai proudly raised its head towards Chu Ning.
Recalling that when it was still a Tier One Intermediate Demon Beast, it could escape while being chased by Foundation Establishment Demons, Chu Ning felt a little more at ease.
Concealing his presence, Chu Ning watched as Ling Xiaobai cautiously charged into the cave.
About twenty breaths of time passed.
"Squeak!"
Accompanied by a cry.
A white figure flashed, Ling Xiaobai’s figure darted out of the cave.
About ten feet behind it.
A Demon Beast, with crimson wings, whose body somewhat resembled a rabbit, but had fiery red fur and fierce eyes, quickly flew out, rushing straight after Ling Xiaobai.
The two Demon Beasts, one in front of the other, rushed past not far from Chu Ning in the blink of an eye, and then quickly vanished from sight.
