he couldn’t even find someone to ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Chu Ning’s heart wasn’t full of questions at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At least two things made Chu Ning feel slightly at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the Cyan Creek Sect already knew about the Yin Demon Sect disciples infiltrating the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, they knew their purpose was to enter the forbidden zone, so they continued to purge them before and after entry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This relieved Chu Ning, who had known about the matter but didn’t know how to inform the sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another thing that slightly reassured him was that the sect’s secret mission was better than he had imagined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there were some dangers, according to what the Yin Demon Sect people said earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The dangers in the forbidden zone mainly come from various places with demon beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And these demon beasts, at most, are Tier One Advanced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In other words, they are still within the Qi Refining Stage; even if some demon beasts are indeed powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as long as they are not too absurdly strong, preparing enough tactics should handle the issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking this way, Chu Ning’s earlier anxiety about possibly being chosen for the mission slightly eased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still, to Chu Ning, participating is something to avoid if possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With these thoughts interweaving, Chu Ning finally returned to his courtyard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Chu Ning released Ling Xiaobai again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaobai, without my permission, do not venture inside there again, understand?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ying!\" Ling Xiaobai called out softly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Chu Ning recalled Ling Xiaobai’s divine technique for breaking through restrictions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, he asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaobai, was the divine technique you used to bring me into the restriction awakened after you became a Tier One Advanced Demon Beast?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are there any other divine techniques?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\" Ling Xiaobai answered with an aggrieved tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Ling Xiaobai’s response, Chu Ning gave up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worried that this little creature would run amok again, he put him back in the Spirit Beast Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling Xiaobai was naturally unwilling, but at Chu Ning’s insistence, he burrowed back into the Spirit Beast Bag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning watched Ling Xiaobai’s figure disappear and shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He recalled Zhuang Yunde mentioning that the Library Pavilion’s outer library mainly stored miscellaneous books that Outer Disciples could view anytime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, he intended to visit the Library Pavilion during the day to find information about spirit beasts, especially regarding Ling Xiaobai. But that would have to wait for another opportunity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After practicing the Refining Spirit Technique briefly, Chu Ning, who had not closed his eyes for two days, fell asleep immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next morning, Chu Ning got up and arrived at the entrance and exit of the Outer Sect on time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon after, Gu Xiaoqing, Shen Zhengquan, and Lu Miaoying arrived one after another.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Chu Ning’s slight surprise, Lu Miaoying, originally at the Qi Refining Fifth Layer, had broken through to the Sixth Layer of Qi Refining.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning wasn’t the only one who noticed; Gu Xiaoqing also asked joyfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Sister Lu, did you break through?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, I had been stuck at the Qi Refining Fifth Layer for a while. After returning to the sect a few days ago and relaxing, I somehow broke through.\" She smiled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her smile was quite natural, noticeably different from the forced smile she had at the Market before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that breaking through made Lu Miaoying genuinely happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s good. Cultivation is sometimes about reaching a certain point naturally,\" Gu Xiaoqing said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two women started chatting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Zhengquan also congratulated and joined in the casual conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning simply congratulated and then remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, Chu Ning noticed the few people who had waited on the first floor of the Hundred Treasures Pavilion appearing again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A person who looked like a steward flew a spiritual boat, carrying them through the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Chu Ning observing them, Gu Xiaoqing spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They are on another mission. I heard they also encountered people from the Yin Demon Sect on the same day as us.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of them had a treasure that helped them all survive, and they returned for a reward.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Gu Xiaoqing explained, Chu Ning understood why they had appeared at the Hundred Treasures Pavilion that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Zhengquan added:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard from elders in the hall that five groups encountered attacks from the Yin Demon Sect that day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides our two groups, the other three seem to have been completely wiped out.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Brother Shen’s information is correct; I also heard it from people in the hall.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xiaoqing nodded slightly to confirm the news.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she sighed slightly and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"We should be more cautious in the future. Try to avoid leaving the Market. If we have to go somewhere, it’s best to travel in pairs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group fell into brief silence upon hearing this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The previously relaxed atmosphere grew heavier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though days had passed, they evidently hadn’t forgotten the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning quietly shook his head at Gu Xiaoqing’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He agreed with avoiding straying too far from the Market if possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, as for traveling in pairs, it seemed unnecessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning thought the attack might have been due to the group being a conspicuous target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he went out alone using Illusion Technique, the chance of being discovered by the Yin Demon Sect might reduce significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Chu Ning kept these thoughts to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regarding returning to Yan Workshop, he decided to observe for some time before making a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After chatting for a while, Lin Changqing arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He released a flying boat, carrying them through the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An hour later, they appeared at Yan Workshop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By then, the Market had begun to see some foot traffic.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Changqing ignored the already populated streets and landed the flying boat directly in front of some shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Chu Ning and others emerge, envious gazes immediately turned from Cultivation Clans and loose cultivators.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A Major Sect is remarkable!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course, not just anyone can become an Outer Disciple of the Cyan Creek Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve heard the Cyan Creek Sect has been accepting many disciples these past two years. I wonder if anyone from my family will have this chance...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst such discussions, Chu Ning and the others disembarked from the flying boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he was about to return to his market booth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Changqing’s voice echoed in their ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need to worry too much. The area around the Market remains safe. I’ll be staying here in the Market too for the next few days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furthermore, our sect, allied with six other sects, is engaging in a large-scale sweep against the Yin Demon Sect disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Estimated within a month, we should largely clear them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Lin Changqing took to the skies again on the spiritual boat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning and the others opened their respective shops.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Chu Ning stepped into his shop, a figure quickly followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shopkeeper, you’re open! I’ve been waiting here since early morning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you have any Basic Upper Grade Talismans? I want to buy a few.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surprised by this, Chu Ning turned his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was rare for someone to specifically request Basic Upper Grade Talismans and to buy several at once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning around, he saw an unremarkable middle-aged man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had some impression; the man had purchased talismans from him before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, he hadn’t seen him buy Basic Upper Grade Talismans before, and he wondered why the sudden interest today.\u003C\u002Fp>",1475,"2026-06-02T10:18:59.779Z",1,"novelbin.me","dd1dd1ef60c293aa6aca23e3b2c210705078884838d0ede0e05910a799deb314","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-145","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-143",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-cover.jpg"]
