Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 312 - 159: Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, Scheming and Escape
Although he didn’t see the whole battle process, he got a general idea through the stone cracks.
This old man not only has extremely high cultivation but also many tricks up his sleeve.
A Tier Two Demon Beast comparable to the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment was caught just like that.
Chu Ning felt that if he faced him head-on, he really didn’t have much confidence.
He originally thought the opponent was only after the Fire-winged Demon Rabbit.
But now, seeing the opponent taking the demon rabbit away without leaving, he couldn’t help but worry.
"If the opponent really investigates every corner of the cave, it would be troublesome."
Chu Ning frowned as he thought about an escape strategy.
At this moment, he naturally dared not make any movement, not even daring to look at the opponent through the stone cracks.
After all, the Divine Sense of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator is powerful and such an action could easily be detected.
Meanwhile, the red-faced elder who re-entered the cave glanced around and slightly scanned with his Divine Sense.
He placed the white net he was carrying on the ground and opened it; the Fire-winged Rabbit Demon was already unconscious.
The red-faced elder took out a Spirit Beast Bag and directly put the Fire-winged Rabbit Demon inside.
At the same time, he retrieved the white net-like Magical Artifact back into his Storage Bag and took out two fragment maps made of animal skins.
"The map of the central location is missing, even though I know this treasured place is within the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, but I can’t find it anywhere, how infuriating!"
The red-faced elder muttered lightly and then examined the maps while walking around the cave.
His Divine Sense also carefully explored, and he occasionally touched various stones in the cave.
Chu Ning, hiding behind a stone at the edge, was not discovered by the opponent for a while.
But if the opponent continued investigating like this, being discovered was just a matter of time.
"It doesn’t seem like there’s any Restriction here, it doesn’t look like there’s a Cave Mansion at all."
After observing for a while, the red-faced elder shook his head, sounding regretful.
"It seems it’s not here, I need to check other places."
Upon hearing the elder’s murmuring, Chu Ning was secretly delighted.
As long as the opponent leaves, he can make his escape.
But in the next moment.
"Squeak!"
A sudden calling sound echoed in the outer part of the cave. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
Upon hearing this sound, Chu Ning’s expression immediately changed.
He naturally recognized the voice of Ling Xiaobai.
It seems the little guy returned to find him after not seeing him for a long time.
Chu Ning heard the calling sound, and naturally, so did the red-faced elder.
The elder’s figure flickered and he rushed outside immediately.
Seeing this scene, Chu Ning gritted his teeth; after a few breaths once the opponent left, he quickly flashed and flew out of the cave.
Ling Xiaobai dashed to the front, followed by the red-faced elder.
Chu Ning followed closely a hundred zhang behind.
Just as he reached the entrance of the cave, from a distance, Chu Ning saw two escape lights, one red and one white, up ahead.
It was the red-faced elder and Ling Xiaobai.
Ling Xiaobai was extremely fast, obviously outpacing the red-faced elder.
Just as Ling Xiaobai was about to escape.
The red-faced elder waved his hand, and a white light shot out.
Upon seeing this scene, Chu Ning was shocked and no longer cared about exposing himself, shouting loudly:
"Xiaobai, dodge!"
After years of being with Chu Ning, Ling Xiaobai had already understood many everyday words.
Upon hearing Chu Ning’s shout, its speed increased by another notch, flying forward and escaping.
It narrowly avoided the white net that opened up after shooting out.
The red-faced elder showed a slight look of surprise.
No longer pursuing Ling Xiaobai, he turned his head towards Chu Ning, eyes shining.
"It’s you?"
Seeing the opponent not making a direct move, Chu Ning also didn’t act rashly but instead greeted politely:
"Greetings, Senior. This Spirit Beast belongs to Junior, it accidentally offended you, I hope Senior can forgive."
The red-faced elder didn’t respond but asked while glancing at Chu Ning and then the Crescent Cave not far away:
"Why did you come here?"
"Junior heard there are many Spirit Medicines on Luoxia Island, so I came to check it out."
As Chu Ning spoke, Ling Xiaobai took a turn and was already racing back to his side.
So he continued:
"My Spirit Beast is quite fast, so I thought of using it to lure out the Fire-winged Demon Rabbit and check out the Crescent Cave for treasures.
I had just entered the cave when you arrived, Senior."
After briefly explaining, the red-faced elder slowly approached, eyes fixed on Chu Ning.
"How did you avoid my Divine Sense scanning?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning internally lamented.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally bit the bullet and said:
"Junior possesses a treasure that can shield Divine Sense scanning."
"A treasure that can shield Divine Sense scanning?"
Upon hearing this, the red-faced elder’s eyes flashed with curiosity.
"Show it to me!"
Chu Ning hurriedly spoke:
"Though this treasure can shield Divine Sense scanning, it has many limitations.
For instance, it cannot shield Divine Sense scanning from cultivators beyond the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishment, nor can it defend against Spiritual Sense Attacks.
For Junior, it is very useful, but for Senior with divine cultivation, it is of no use."
The red-faced elder snorted lightly upon hearing this.
"Whether this thing is useful to me isn’t for you to decide, let me have a look at it first."
