Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh

Chapter 402 - 200: Golden Core Falls, Jiuhua Mountain

As he activated the Teleportation Array with the Jade Token, Chu Ning also sensed Xia Kui’s Golden Core shooting towards him.

Because he wasn’t sure if his teleportation would be interrupted by Xia Kui’s attack on the Gold Coin Pill.

At that moment, Chu Ning took out the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman and activated it, preparing to fight back.

Feeling the Teleportation Array about to transport him, Chu Ning attempted to activate the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman.

As a result, this scene unfolded.

Although he had been teleported away, the sword aura released by the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman was already activated.

As Xia Kui’s Golden Core attacked the array, it was accurately struck by the Golden Core.

The dark blue sword light and the multicolored streaming Gold Coin Pill collided fiercely.

The next moment, various rays of light scattered and splattered everywhere.

However, the dark blue sword light and the multicolored Gold Coin Pill unexpectedly exploded simultaneously!

"No!"

"Poof!!"

At the same time the Golden Core exploded, Xia Kui, not far away, spat out a mouthful of blood.

His body then plummeted straight down and crashed onto the ground.

At this moment, the face of this Golden Core Cultivator was deathly pale, his aura weak, with none of the pressure of a Golden Core Cultivator left.

At the same time, his originally jet-black hair rapidly turned white at a speed visible to the naked eye.

And his previously gaunt skin became increasingly aged, instantly transforming into a haggard elderly appearance.

"A shattered Golden Core, how is it possible?"

Xia Kui let out a rasping howl of anguish.

"He’s just a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, how could he shatter my Golden Core!!?"

At this moment, Xia Kui truly regretted and feared.

If last time, when Chu Ning used the Thundering Bead to seriously injure him, causing him to lose half his body, made Xia Kui hate Chu Ning to the core.

Now, he feared Chu Ning like a tiger.

Xia Kui’s gaze was fixed on the Teleportation Array, as if dreading Chu Ning’s reappearance from it.

He was very sure that if such a situation arose.

The only outcome awaiting him was death.

After waiting for a long time, there was no activity from the Teleportation Array.

"Heh heh!!" Xia Kui finally let out a laugh resembling an eerie night owl.

However, amidst the laugh of apparent survival, there was an indescribable desolation.

Suddenly, his laughter halted abruptly.

Right now, the black mist originally swirling around him had unexpectedly condensed into a ghostly face and was lunging towards him.

Realizing that his shattered Golden Core and severely diminished cultivation had caused the Yin Soul backlash.

Xia Kui’s face changed drastically, and he quickly grabbed the Soul Summoning Banner in his hand.

Attempting to recapture the Yin Soul specter back into the Soul Summoning Banner.

But it was already too late!

Having fallen from the Core Formation Stage, he could no longer control the Soul Summoning Banner as he used to.

Before he could finish casting the spell, the Yin Soul had already transformed into a large mouth, completely engulfing him.

The next moment, countless Yin Soul specters flew out from the Soul Summoning Banner.

In the blink of an eye, ghostly mist filled the air within several hundred feet, with various Yin Souls’ shrill cries echoing.

And the figure of this Golden Core Elder of the Yin Demon Sect never emerged from this island again.

...

Chu Ning, of course, had no idea what transpired after he teleported away.

He didn’t even know whether the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman he had activated hit the Golden Core or what damage it might have inflicted on it.

The long-distance transmission made him feel as if his body was about to be torn apart completely.

Finally adapting, Chu Ning found himself inside a mountain cave.

It was pitch black around him.

Chu Ning immediately took out the Cyan Light Bead, only then could he see the environment he was in.

In a confined cave that could accommodate about a dozen people standing.

On the ground where he stood, various Dao Runes were inscribed.

In the cave, besides this Teleportation Array, there was nothing else.

For a moment, Chu Ning was entirely uncertain about where he had arrived.

He slightly sensed his physical condition.

Because just before teleportation, he had undergone a round of Magical Combat and activated the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman.

At this moment, Chu Ning’s magical power was only about fifty percent full.

Realizing this, Chu Ning refrained from recklessly extending his Divine Sense to probe outside.

He just stepped out of the range of the Teleportation Array and used his Divine Sense to envelop the cave chamber.

Then, Chu Ning began taking out a Pill and swallowed it, sitting down to regulate his breath.

After approximately a quarter of an hour, Chu Ning slowly opened his eyes.

At the same time, he cautiously extended his Divine Sense towards the outside world.

Instantly, the situation around the mountain cave clearly appeared in his sea of consciousness.

Immediately, Chu Ning let out a breath of relief.

The mountain cave was situated on the mountainside of a peak.

All around were mountains, and the spiritual qi outside didn’t seem particularly abundant.

It didn’t appear to be some holy land for cultivation.

Under Chu Ning’s Divine Sense, spanning more than a thousand feet, he didn’t detect any other cultivator’s presence.

Chu Ning immediately patted his Storage Bag and released the Iron Rock Beast.

He then commanded it to dig towards the outside of the cave, and soon, a passage leading outward appeared.

Chu Ning walked out of the mountain cave and saw only mountains in every direction.

This place seemed to be within a vast mountain range.

Chu Ning then instructed the Iron Rock Beast to seal the passage they had used before and casually used a few Small Techniques on the nearby plants.

The plants grew rapidly, quickly covering the sealed cave entrance.

At this time, Chu Ning asked Ling Xiaobai:

"Xiaobai, have you sensed any restrictions above or around us?"

Ling Xiaobai shook his little head.
