Eternal Life: My Talents Can Refresh-Chapter 294 - 156: Living Together in the Cave Mansion (Two-in-One)

Chapter 294: Chapter 156: Living Together in the Cave Mansion (Two-in-One)

However, there were still no results.

In the blink of an eye, Cen Zijin had already stayed here for more than a month.

This day, when Chu Ning walked into the Spirit Field, he was immediately taken aback.

It was because the Spirit Fruit, hybridized from the Primordial Yang Fruit and the Iron Stem Orchid, had been growing extremely slowly after setting fruit.

Not only did the time for pollination before fruition take longer compared to the hybrid Golden Orchid Fruit before.

The growth speed after fruition was also far slower than that of the original Golden Orchid Fruit, even slower than the Iron Stem Orchid.

In nearly two months of growth, the Spirit Fruit, apart from becoming slightly larger, hadn’t shown any other changes.

Previously, the Golden Orchid Fruit would gradually spread its golden color over time.

But this Spirit Fruit, in almost two months, had shown very few changes.

Today, however, when Chu Ning looked again, he noticed a slight change in the fruit.

The size remained as small as ever, but the red spots on it seemed to have decreased since he last checked two days ago.

"What’s going on? It’s one thing for the Spirit Fruit not to grow, but why are the red spots getting smaller? Could the cultivation have failed?"

Chu Ning muttered to himself, then took note of the changes in the Spirit Fruit.

Then, he turned to look at the Flame Wood Twin Fruit and Iron Soul Flower, two most concerned Spirit Medicines in his garden.

"Oh, they’ve fruited!"

Seeing a few small Spirit Fruits growing on the Flame Wood Twin Fruit Tree, Chu Ning was immediately overjoyed.

He quickly stepped forward to the Flame Wood Twin Fruits.

The Spirit Fruit was green, unlike the fiery red ones he had picked in the Spirit Realm before.

Moreover, it was much smaller in size.

However, its shape was exactly the same.

Seeing this, Chu Ning’s face was filled with smiles.

After spending 8 months, the Flame Wood Twin Fruit had finally set fruit, and from now on, it was only a matter of time before it matured with continuous spell-casting.

He remembered that when he was picking in the Spirit Realm, a Flame Wood Twin Fruit Tree could grow 5 or 6 Spirit Fruits.

Now he had planted 36 of them here; if everything went well, it should yield over 150.

By then, whether he consumed them directly or refined them into Profound Spirit Treasure Pill to take, it should be enough.

It’s just that time-wise, he still had to nurture these Spirit Fruits to maturity as soon as possible.

"I’ll have to call Ling Xiaobai out to help accelerate the ripening."

Chu Ning didn’t believe that these Spirit Medicines and Fruits could grow so fast solely due to his spell-casting.

His Yin Wood Spirit Body using the Profound Spring Youth Technique was indeed more effective than the general cultivator.

However, such growth speed definitely had something to do with the ripening influence of the little guy, Ling Xiaobai.

Thinking this, Chu Ning turned and walked towards the Cave Mansion.

The little guy had been getting benefits from Cen Zijin every now and then recently, so whenever she called it to play, it was always happy to oblige.

But this proper business shouldn’t be forgotten.

In the Stone Chamber, Cen Zijin was teasing and playing with Ling Xiaobai, watching Chu Ning take Ling Xiaobai away, the latter showing an unwilling look.

She asked curiously:

"Fellow Daoist Chu, what on earth are you making Xiaobai do? Why does it look so unwilling?"

"To pee! It’ll be back soon!"

Chu Ning casually replied.

"Eek!"

Ling Xiaobai let out a pitiful cry upon hearing this.

Cen Zijin’s face turned slightly red, hesitated for a moment, but still followed Chu Ning out.

However, upon seeing Chu Ning enter the Medicinal Garden with Ling Xiaobai, she halted her steps.

Cen Zijin still remembered Chu Ning’s previous reminder that there were some Spirit Plants planted there, which he didn’t want others to see. 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

And because of the Restriction in place, even Cen Zijin couldn’t see what was planted in the Medicinal Garden and Spirit Field from outside.

After a brief moment, Chu Ning came back out holding Ling Xiaobai again.

Cen Zijin reached out to take Ling Xiaobai from Chu Ning, hugged it, hesitated, and asked:

"Why did you bring Xiaobai here?"

"For fertilizing," Chu Ning said matter-of-factly.

"The manure of Spirit Beasts is rich in Spiritual Qi, which can promote the growth of Spirit Plants, actually..."

Saying this, Chu Ning glanced at Cen Zijin.

Cen Zijin, upon seeing him glancing, gave him a glare.

It felt like she hadn’t put on her Foundation Establishment Cultivator persona enough, as though this guy was getting increasingly audacious.

Feeling Cen Zijin’s gaze, Chu Ning paused slightly, somewhat puzzled, and said:

"Actually, anyone who has ever been involved in Spirit Plant Cultivation knows these things.

For example, in the Sect, Spirit Beast manure is often specially made into fertilizer."

Hearing this, Cen Zijin blinked softly.

"Is that what you wanted to tell me?"

Chu Ning nodded slightly, pausing a moment, and said, "Yes, what else would I say?"

"Nothing!" A blush flashed across Cen Zijin’s face, then she quickly hugged Ling Xiaobai and headed into the Cave Mansion.

Seeing this, Chu Ning smiled and followed her into the Cave Mansion as well.

After walking a few steps ahead, Cen Zijin slowed her pace, allowing Chu Ning to catch up so they could walk side by side.

Then she reached into her Storage Bag, took something out, and handed it to Chu Ning.

"Here for you, the Cloud Pattern Talisman Brush. I hadn’t been at ease making it while healing.

In the past few days, I cleaned all the iron meteorites from the root whiskers, see if it’s okay."

Chu Ning reached out to take it. Cen Zijin had indeed asked him before how to make the Cloud Pattern Talisman Brush.

Receiving it at this moment, he saw that the emerald bamboo body had turned yellow and was shorter by a segment.
