In terms of refinement quality, Jiuhua Sect’s Lu Jiakang holds a slight edge. This round goes to Jiuhua Sect!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the words of the middle-aged scholar, cheers immediately erupted at the scene.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The disciples of Jiuhua Sect all smiled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had realized that even though the people from Daluo Sect came with a strong momentum, they were not invincible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Chu Ning and Yuan Rongzhang did not join in the loud cheers, they were visibly pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning’s gaze at the moment was filled with contemplation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When Senior Brother Lu was refining just now, aside from the skillful Fire Control during quenching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The forging technique was also profound, likely combined with some form of Magical Power application.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And there was a certain rhythm and force to it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning secretly recalled the method Lu Jiakang used during Artifact Refining just now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should remember all these first, and later, when I see the Refining Essence Method, I can compare it and perhaps gain more insights.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning thought to himself while paying attention to the scene in the arena.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the Alchemy and Artifact Refining competitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jiakang and Gu Guanlin both left the high platform, flying into the middle of a duel arena about a hundred feet in size.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This arena was surrounded by Restriction fluctuations, a venue set up by Jiuhua Sect in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, to be safe, several witnesses, including Ao Langtian, conducted an inspection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, as Lu Jiakang and Gu Guanlin entered, the atmosphere at the scene grew tense.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This competition would be different from the previous two.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, not only would both sides directly engage, but they would also face significant danger, affecting which sect could gain an advantage in the first round of the competition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"According to the rules set by the persons in charge from both sides, there are no restrictions on approaches during the Magical Combat, except that lives cannot be taken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If one side feels they cannot win, they can concede early.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After these words, the white-haired Elder Peng sat down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s expressions grew solemn at these words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was essentially not much different from a fight to the death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the arena, the short Gu Guanlin immediately raised his hand after the words fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, an exceptionally sharp Fire Saber technique attacked Lu Jiakang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously, he also wielded a dark Long Saber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flames flickered around the Long Saber, clearly not an ordinary item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Lu Jiakang held a Giant Hammer in his hand, swiftly swinging it downward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Similarly, a fiery beam shot out, meeting the flaming blade in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, Lu Jiakang was also emitting an earthen yellow Magical Power Shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evidently, this Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator from Jiuhua Sect was not letting down his guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As his Protective Shield came to life, Gu Guanlin waved his hand again, completely activating several talismans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The power of these talismans was all at the Intermediate Upper Grade level, with some even being Advanced Talismans.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Lu Jiakang had prepared as well, blocking all of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, he unleashed several attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, both of them were well-prepared for this Magical Combat, employing various means to the fullest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, everyone knew that it would only become clear who would prevail once both sides exhausted their measures.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gradually, both stopped producing talismans and began to attack continuously with their Magical Artifacts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evidently, despite thorough preparations, the ongoing fierce battle had depleted their resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this point, Gu Guanlin suddenly produced another talisman and activated it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While he was enveloped in protective essences, the Long Saber in his hand disappeared, replaced by a Short Saber.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Magical Treasure!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a distance, Chu Ning observed this scene, muttering to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, this individual was resorting to his trump card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lu Jiakang in the arena obviously knew this as well, his expression serious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He waved his hand, producing a Shield, while a Silver Dart appeared in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s also a Magical Treasure, and there are two of them!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Ning was slightly surprised to see the Shield and Silver Dart in Lu Jiakang’s hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Driving a Magical Treasure with Foundation Establishment Stage cultivation wasn’t easy, requiring a significant amount of Magical Power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Simultaneously employing two Magical Treasures was especially challenging.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, not everyone had the abundance of Magical Power like Chu Ning, able to wield a Magical Treasure with Early Stage Foundation Establishment cultivation.\u003C\u002Fp>",936,"2026-06-02T10:18:59.779Z",1,"novelbin.me","3ded9f1ac65ca60e5fa0c2a9cac2b14e8c91225d0d94a4be0e8ee71805d24785","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-474","eternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-chapter-472",514,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Feternal-life-my-talents-can-refresh-cover.jpg"]
