Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 344 - 170: Face-to-Face Clash, Instantly Killing Same Tier Cultivators
Upon hearing Song Feng’s words, Chu Ning did not immediately agree, but instead smiled and asked:
"Could Fellow Daoist Song first inform me of your intentions, otherwise Mr. Chu feels somewhat anxious."
"Haha, you are indeed cautious." Song Feng laughed heartily.
"As you may know, recently, our Thousand Islands Alliance has been contacting various individuals with commendable strength.
Fellow Daoist Chu, to advance from the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining to Foundation Establishment in just three short years, and to achieve the status of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator at such a young age, you are truly a cultivation prodigy in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.
Mr. Song has come this time to discuss inviting you to join the Song Family."
Upon hearing Song Feng’s proposal, Chu Ning immediately shook his head and said:
"Mr. Chu has just reached Foundation Establishment and wishes to focus on cultivation for a period, for now..."
Song Feng heard this and immediately gestured with his hand:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, please don’t hastily refuse. We should discuss further inside the estate and then you can decide."
Chu Ning found it odd that Song Feng wished to enter the cave mansion.
But after thinking briefly, he quickly turned sideways and said:
"Alright!"
Outside of the array, Chu Ning had no fear of Song Feng, and yet the latter insisted on entering his cave mansion’s array.
Chu Ning was naturally unafraid of any tricks he might play.
So he simply led him into the cave mansion to see what his intentions were.
Of course, Chu Ning wasn’t foolish enough to lead the way, exposing his back to Song Feng.
Instead, he let Song Feng walk ahead.
This action by Chu Ning was seen as a sign of respect by Song Feng, who couldn’t help but have a trace of pride on his face.
The two entered the cave mansion one following the other.
"Such abundant Spiritual Qi, Fellow Daoist Chu indeed has a Tier Two Hidden Spirit Vein here, quite fortunate."
As Song Feng entered the array, he immediately remarked.
Chu Ning felt there was no need to hide and responded truthfully:
"There is indeed a Tier Two Hidden Spirit Vein here, though it’s rather small, incomparable with Thousand Illusion Island."
Upon hearing this, Song Feng looked at Chu Ning with deep meaning.
"Perhaps not, for you to achieve Foundation Establishment in such a short time, the cultivation site must surely be extraordinary."
Chu Ning heard this and somewhat realized.
Was he suspecting that his fast cultivation pace was due to the Hidden Spirit Vein?
Chu Ning did not deny it; it certainly contributed, as without the Hidden Spirit Vein, both his cultivation speed and Spirit Plant cultivation would’ve been affected.
However, the true reason for his rapid cultivation was not something as ordinary as a Tier Two Spirit Vein could achieve.
Chu Ning smiled without replying, while Song Feng observed and spoke:
"Fellow Daoist, your cave mansion is indeed well-arranged. May I have a look around?"
Even as he spoke, Song Feng had already begun walking deeper into the cave mansion.
Chu Ning’s eyes gleamed coldly; Song Feng was indeed exceedingly impolite.
However, besides the advancing Ling Xiaobai, and the places where Flame Wood Twin Fruit and Iron Soul Flower, along with some rare Spirit Medicines, were grown, there were not many secrets.
Chu Ning at this moment simply did not stop him.
He wanted to see what tricks Song Feng intended to play.
Song Feng, while walking, looked around and remarked:
"Fellow Daoist’s cave mansion indeed has many Restrictions, oh, what’s this cave chamber?"
Song Feng had already stopped outside the Spirit Beast Room where Ling Xiaobai was situated.
Chu Ning followed up to say: "This is a Spirit Beast Room."
"Oh, you also raise Spirit Beasts? What kind of Spirit Beast is it, would you mind if I took a look?"
Song Feng seemed very interested.
Chu Ning naturally refused outright:
"It is a Spirit Beast cub, not convenient to view, but there’s an Iron Rock Beast next door if you’re interested."
Saying so, Chu Ning directly opened the Iron Rock Beast chamber nearby.
Song Feng truly took a closer look.
Then chuckled: "I was just saying casually, if it’s inconvenient for you, naturally that’s fine."
With that, Song Feng continued forward, quickly arriving outside the Medicinal Garden.
Chu Ning had stayed in the cave mansion recently, and the Restrictions in the Medicinal Garden had not been completely opened.
Beyond the Flame Wood Twin Fruit, Iron Soul Flower, and three mixed-breed Spirit Plants, there were one or two Spirit Medicines brought from the Spirit Realm.
Items like the Primordial Yang Fruit, although separated by Restrictions, were still visible at a glance.
Song Feng stood watching and pointed to the planting places of the Flame Wood Twin Fruit and Iron Soul Flower.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, what are those two places planted?"
"Those are seedlings I recently planted, to prevent interference from other Spirit Plants, so I used some special Restrictions to separate them."
As Chu Ning spoke this, his tone had already shown a hint of displeasure.
However, Song Feng seemed unaware, laughing as he spoke:
"I’m quite interested in Spirit Plant Cultivation as well, could you let me take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Ning looked directly at Song Feng and said:
"Fellow Daoist Song, since you’ve come to recruit, why not speak frankly? It’s inconvenient to open the Spirit Plant Restrictions."
Upon hearing Chu Ning refuse so directly, Song Feng’s smile finally lessened.
He turned his head, looking at Chu Ning with a revealing smile.
"Recruiting Fellow Daoist Chu is certainly one of my purposes for coming, but I also wish to know the reason behind your rapid cultivation advancement.
Between us, Mr. Song has been at the Early Stage of Foundation Establishment for some time.
If I could gain some insight from you, I’d ensure more advantages when you join the Song Family."
