Did you pick them?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not, let’s go pick them now. I need them for Alchemy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Golden Essence Fruit was picked today,\" Chu Ning replied honestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoqing immediately said, \"That’s great! Let me first see your Golden Essence Fruits, Junior Brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she turned to Du Han and said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother Du, I need to inventory the Golden Essence Fruits with Junior Brother Chu first, you...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Du Han seemed to be slightly impatient at this point. With a soft \"hmm,\" he said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In that case, Junior Sister Gu, consider my proposal. I’ll come back another day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, Du Han turned and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He showed no dissatisfaction towards Chu Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, Du Han realized that Gu Xiaoqing was just finding an excuse to escape his entanglement and didn’t actually have anything with Chu Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, Chu Ning’s current Qi Refining Fifth Layer level was not something he and Gu Xiaoqing took seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Du Han left, Gu Xiaoqing breathed a sigh of relief, looking visibly relaxed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all this, Gu Xiaoqing turned to Chu Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Junior Brother Chu, let’s go to your shop to look at the Golden Essence Fruits.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning, meanwhile, acted as if he was completely unaware.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just nodded, then used the Restriction Token to open his shop and invite Gu Xiaoqing inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Sister Gu, here are one thousand Golden Essence Fruits, the same quantity as before.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning took out several Jade Boxes from the Storage Bag, opening them one by one in front of Gu Xiaoqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xiaoqing only glanced briefly before putting the boxes away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she took out 1000 Lower Grade Spirit Stones from her Storage Bag and placed them in front of Chu Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning set aside 50 Stones, then smiled at Gu Xiaoqing, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Sister Gu, just take 950 Spirit Stones.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xiaoqing gave a noncommittal nod and took back the 50 Spirit Stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she seemed to realize her oversight and quickly showed Chu Ning an apologetic smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry, Junior Brother Chu, I’ve been really frustrated being pestered by Senior Brother Du all day.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s no problem,\" Chu Ning replied with a casual smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Gu Xiaoqing seemed inclined to talk, and she voluntarily started sharing with Chu Ning:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother Du has been stuck at the Ninth Layer of Qi Refining for a while, unable to enter the Qi Refining Perfection Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, he’s thought of using the Dual Cultivation Technique to break through and wants me to be his Dao partner.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Gu Xiaoqing’s face tinged slightly red.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Chu Ning understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder, Du Han had never shown such intentions before but suddenly started clinging to Gu Xiaoqing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ve already clearly expressed that I’m solely focused on pursuing the Dao and have no intention of finding a Dao partner for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Senior Brother Du, sigh...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gu Xiaoqing’s face was full of distress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This matter originally had nothing to do with Chu Ning, but considering Gu Xiaoqing had been kind to him over the past year, Chu Ning hesitated a moment, then casually suggested:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Sister might as well come up with a better reason, for instance, claiming you once swore an oath not to find a Dao partner before reaching the Foundation Establishment Stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you break this promise now, it could affect your Dao Heart, which wouldn’t be favorable for future cultivation...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, Chu Ning refrained from saying more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Gu Xiaoqing’s eyes brightened considerably.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why didn’t I think of that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her previous gentle expression returned, and Gu Xiaoqing flashed a bright smile at Chu Ning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Junior Brother.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No need to be so formal, Senior Sister,\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning said, watching Gu Xiaoqing’s departing figure with a shake of his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Gu Xiaoqing spoke like that, Du Han naturally couldn’t continue entangling her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, affecting one’s Dao Heart is a rather mystical matter, and even Du Han couldn’t force it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The street was almost empty, so Chu Ning decided to close the shop door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to his courtyard, he immediately took a Spiritual Essence Pill and began cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the ensuing days, Chu Ning continued farming, making Talismans, and cultivating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cultivated Spirit Plants while advancing his cultivation, striving to reach the Qi Cultivation Eighth Layer quickly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, ten days later, the mutated two rows of Iron Blue Orchid Fruit in the Spirit Field matured first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning gave them a name, calling them Golden Orchid Fruit, then picked them and packed them in Jade Boxes to bring back to the Market.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Chu Ning was still unsure of what use the Golden Orchid Fruit had.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed to explore its use further.\u003C\u002Fp>",1073,"2026-06-02T10:18:59.779Z",1,"novelbin.me","0577141f3447ef4b4e6d3517a5929b51f2848dee6687409882e950807ac566c6","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-451","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-149",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-cover.jpg"]
