Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 73: Yan Workshop

Yan Workshop, located in a branch of the Cyan Creek Mountain Range.

Because it is situated between the territories of two major sects and is close to the mortal city Yanyun City to the north,

this market, although not very large, is still bustling every market day.

The market opens every three days.

Today was just closing time, and when Chu Ning and others arrived, there weren’t many people on the streets of the market.

Lin Changqing led the group to stop in front of several shops in the market.

"There are four shops here, previously managed by different halls, each with a yard for living.

The restriction token can be activated; you can each take a look."

With that, Lin Changqing waved his hand, and each person received a small restriction token, while Chu Ning received two.

The Spirit Plant Room naturally has a shop here too. Although the Cyan Creek Sect only planted 20 acres of spirit fields here, the yield is not much.

However, because the spirit fields are of high grade, the spirit plants grown are also of corresponding high grade, allowing them to sell for some Spirit Stones.

Of course, this shop doesn’t just sell the products of those 20 acres of fields.

Ordinarily, this shop also buys and sells some spirit plants.

It’s even a rice shop, fetching some spirit rice from cultivation clans or the Cyan Creek Sect for sale.

Chu Ning reached out to take the restriction token, glanced at the shop signs displaying the Cyan Creek Spirit Talisman Workshop and Cyan Creek Spirit Plant Workshop.

He walked into the Cyan Creek Spirit Talisman Workshop shop by the edge, opened the door, and went inside.

The shop, after all, had been in operation, just that the staff had recently been withdrawn, leaving it tidied and clean.

There was a shelf above, naturally empty, with nothing inside.

Chu Ning only glanced at it, cast a few cleaning spells over, and the shop was cleaned spotlessly.

Then, Chu Ning headed to the back of the shop.

At the back of the shop, there was a courtyard for rest and living.

What somewhat surprised Chu Ning was that the shop wasn’t large, but the courtyard at the back was quite spacious.

Another, larger courtyard adjoined the living courtyard.

In terms of courtyard size alone, it even surpassed the place where Chu Ning stayed in Zone D by a few measures.

"It seems the size of the houses here is uniformly prepared.

Actually, the Spirit Talisman Pavilion doesn’t need so much space, but the Spirit Beast Room is different.

If Spirit Beasts like the Gray Spirit Rabbit were really to be raised here, naturally they would require a sizable space.

So does the Spirit Plant Room; some spirit plants need to be cultivated after being collected."

What pleased Chu Ning particularly was that the courtyard, although seemingly adjoining others, was clearly separated by some kind of restriction, ensuring they didn’t interfere with each other.

Chu Ning slightly sensed the density of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi, becoming even more satisfied.

According to the information the sect provided before they came, regarding Yan Workshop,

this land was once the area with the densest spiritual energy in this region.

Previously, both the Cyan Creek Sect and Wind Canyon acquired this place, and some cultivation clans had the same idea.

Eventually, after a compromise, it became a centralized market.

So, in terms of Spiritual Qi density alone, it even surpasses the spirit fields of the Cyan Creek Sect here.

"Originally, I was planning to plant Iron Wire Vine all over here.

Now it seems, I can plant some higher quality spirit plants, which will aid in cultivation using the Cyan Wood Spring Blossom Skill."

This thought flashed through Chu Ning’s mind.

He hadn’t had much time to think before he heard Lin Changqing’s transmission calling everyone together, and promptly left the courtyard, returning to the street.

At this moment, standing beside Lin Changqing on the street was another young man.

The young man looked about twenty-eight or twenty-nine, with long, thin cheeks, standing there straight and motionless.

Chu Ning glanced at him, vaguely feeling a sharp aura from him.

However, seeing the sect robe the man was wearing, it turned out he was also from the Cyan Creek Sect.

While Chu Ning was guessing the man’s identity, Lin Changqing began to speak:

"This is Du Han from the Law Enforcement Hall, with cultivation at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining.

If there are any troublesome matters or dangers caused by other cultivators, you can find him.

If I’m not around and there’s something that needs reporting to the sect, you can also go to Du Han."

Finished speaking, Lin Changqing introduced Chu Ning and the others to Du Han one by one.

Before everyone could greet Du Han, he had already solemnly begun to speak:

"Within the market, there is a law enforcement team formed by the allied families, and under normal circumstances, no one in Yan Workshop would cause trouble for us Cyan Creek Sect cultivators.

So if there’s no urgent matter, there’s no need to seek me out."

Du Han’s words immediately made Chu Ning sigh silently in his heart.

"The sect really arranged a complementary pair, both appearing cold."

Lin Changqing clearly already knew Du Han’s style and said nothing more.

He merely turned to Du Han and said:

"Chu Ning still needs to manage the 20 acres of spirit fields for the sect, take him to identify the place while I inspect other markets."

With that, Lin Changqing rode his spiritual boat away amid everyone’s farewells.

Only then did Du Han turn his head to Chu Ning.

"The spirit fields aren’t far from the market, just over ten miles. Let’s head there."

As he said this, Du Han didn’t use any magical artifact, but directly flew away using Wind Control.

Chu Ning followed, also flying using Wind Control.

The four remaining people watched as Chu Ning and Du Han went off into the distance, and the male disciple from the Spirit Beast Room, Luo Yiping, spoke first, shaking his head:

"The Spirit Talisman Pavilion and the Spirit Plant Room are really short-staffed, having a Qi Refining Fourth Layer disciple handling two roles simultaneously."

"I don’t think the Spirit Talisman Pavilion has high hopes for business at Yan Workshop." replied Shen Zhengquan from the Artifact Refining Hall.

"Wind Canyon is renowned for talisman making; I’ve heard that in Yan Workshop, our Cyan Creek Sect barely holds any of the talisman business, now..."

After they finished speaking, the female disciple from the Spirit Beast Room, Lu Miaoying, curiously asked:

"So, since Junior Brother Chu is on his own, does he only need to submit one share of the harvest?"

"How could that be?" Luo Yiping immediately chuckled softly.

"Since he represents both the Spirit Talisman Pavilion and the Spirit Plant Room, he must submit two shares.

Heh, this Junior Brother Chu...

He might not even know if he can submit the harvest when the time comes."

Upon hearing this, Lu Miaoying stuck out her tongue, thinking she was glad it wasn’t her task to complete.

Luo Yiping then shook his head again, adding:

"Whether he can submit the harvest or not is one thing, but Yan Workshop is under the joint jurisdiction of us and Wind Canyon.

If his business here is completely suppressed by Wind Canyon, how would the various cultivation clans and those loose cultivators view us?"

Shen Zhengquan also frowned and shook his head, seemingly confused by this situation.

Only Gu Xiaoqing, the female disciple from the Alchemy Hall, who had remained silent, spoke calmly and gently:

"Maybe Junior Brother Chu possesses some exceptional qualities."

"What could a Qi Refining Fourth Layer have that’s exceptional?" Luo Yiping scoffed again, smirking slightly.

As he finished speaking, his gaze lightly swept over the shop signs that Chu Ning was responsible for.

It was unknown what he was thinking.
