I can help you with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And why not rest at my place tonight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xiaoqing has always been considerate of others, evidently out of concern that Lu Miaoying was too frightened today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, with Luo Yiping’s passing, she feared her junior sister might be scared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unexpectedly, Lu Miaoying shook her head and forced a semblance of a relaxed smile at Gu Xiaoqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother Luo left quite a few spirit beasts; I need to take care of them. This shop still needs to continue operating tomorrow and the day after.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Chu Ning couldn’t help but take another look at Lu Miaoying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t paid much attention to this junior disciple of the Spirit Beast Room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He only knew she always followed Luo Yiping’s lead and seemed to lack her own opinions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet he hadn’t expected her to have such deep feelings for Luo Yiping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, however, she exhibited a resilience and determination unlike before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Lu Miaoying left, the group exchanged glances and prepared to part ways.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Zhengquan left first, while Gu Xiaoqing lagged a few steps behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Chu Ning was about to enter the shop, she called out to him and quickly walked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Subsequently, Gu Xiaoqing produced the storage bag belonging to the Yin Demon Sect disciple and handed it to Chu Ning:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Brother Chu, I must thank you. Without you, I would’ve been doomed today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This storage bag should be handled by you. Without your help, I wouldn’t have been able to kill that person.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since Senior Sister insists, I shall accept it with gratitude.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Gu Xiaoqing’s grateful expression, Chu Ning considered for a moment and accepted the bag without further insistence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, women tend to be more emotional, and if he didn’t accept it, this senior sister seemed quite troubled by it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, upon seeing Chu Ning accept the storage bag, a faint smile appeared on Gu Xiaoqing’s face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since encountering the attack, this was her first time showing such an expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Gu Xiaoqing left, Chu Ning took the storage bag back to his residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he retrieved three other storage bags from his belongings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It remained uncertain whether Lin Changqing thought Chu Ning and the others had indeed suffered losses today or simply had no interest in the items of these Qi Refining disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Changqing only took a few identity tokens from Yin Demon Sect disciples and left the rest behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, Chu Ning decided to pour out all the contents of the storage bags.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly, an array of dazzling items spread across the table, momentarily making Chu Ning’s eyes blur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling Lin Changqing mentioning that the Yin Demon Slash was unleashed from a magical artifact, Chu Ning’s gaze first fell on several magical artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He initially picked up the magic staff used by the black-clad man to release the gray mist, and immediately, a chill emanated from the staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning couldn’t help but frown slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he wasn’t well-versed in magical artifacts, he knew this was an object of chilling nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, this artifact appeared quite remarkable, as it was also an intermediate magical artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He attempted to inject magical power, and after several tries, quickly mastered its use.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The staff had two small arrays inscribed upon it, corresponding to two functions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One function was the gray mist that could obscure vision; as long as magical power was activated, it could be used, and Chu Ning tested it, capable of enveloping an area up to about ten zhang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The other function was to activate a gray light spell through magical power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning carefully sensed it and realized that this spell wasn’t any of the Five Elements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It emitted a faint chilly aura, hinting at some demonic cultivation spell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The gray mist is indeed a useful tactic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Chu Ning found the staff somewhat unattractive, its practicality was quite appealing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In combat, it could indeed prove useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Today was simply a fortunate encounter for the black-clad man to meet Chu Ning; for an ordinary Qi Refining cultivator, even at Qi Refining Late Stage or Qi Refining Perfection, without divine sense, being trapped like this would mean being at his mercy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on the black-clad man’s actions, he likely didn’t know Chu Ning was using spiritual sense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, this Refining Spirit Technique wasn’t something from the Yin Demon Sect but was acquired by Qi Chongmao elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Storing the staff securely, Chu Ning turned his attention to another magical artifact, the black wheel of the person killed by Gu Xiaoqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From how the other party used it, this artifact was also a combination of offense and defense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, after a brief test, Chu Ning quickly lost interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the artifact could both attack and defend, its quality was average, just barely reaching intermediate magical artifact level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its attack relied mainly on launching the artifact post-activation, yet controlling it required certain spells for cooperation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for defense, it merely depended on a material-embedded array that didn’t shield the whole body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning’s gaze then fell upon two other magical artifacts: the long saber wielded by the yellow-clothed man he had killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also an intermediate magical artifact, seemingly quite lethal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, it seemed Chu Ning had little use for it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first adversary Chu Ning killed, who initially opposed Lu Miaoying, used a basic magical artifact.\u003C\u002Fp>",966,"2026-06-02T10:18:59.779Z",1,"novelbin.me","3ce4c4d0a4a93d2d2af5ffbe79ca1febc315fa3ba1cf8c7c76d5099334c189d8","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-129","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-127",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-cover.jpg"]
