Chapter Seventy-Seven: A Dangerous and Tempting Mission
The sword spirit branch opened Wen Weiguang, although it was said that it was to reward Wen Weiguang for breaking through the Jindan period, but this was obviously just an excuse. This is the sword spirit using this reason to support Wen Weiguang, leaving Wei Lai to speak alone.
Therefore, Wei Lai understands that there must be a big deal to discuss separately.
The sword spirit was very neat and neat, and said: "Today I will get straight to the point with you, if you sincerely join the Yuan Sword Gate, then as long as you promise to complete one of my tasks, I will find Wen Chongyang to explain that all the chores in the Yuan Sword Gate can be exempted, and you only need to do my task well." And I can also guide you to practice, although there is no name of master and apprentice, but there can be the reality of master and apprentice. ”
"In the future, if there are any difficulties in the sect, you can find me. ”
"The task is dangerous and complicated. You don't have the strength to do it right now, but you have a lot of talent. In time, you will have at least the slightest chance of being able to get to the edge of the truth and accomplish this task. ”
"Because this mission is too dangerous and too secret, I can't tell you right now, I have to make a Dao Heart Oath in you before I can tell you. Now you answer me, would you like to understand this task and make a Dao Heart Oath?"
Wei Lai touched the Flying Shadow Sword on his wrist, only thought for a moment, and then said, "I am willing." ”
"Okay! Then you swear that all the words you hear from me today will never be leaked, and if there is leakage, then the Dao heart will go crazy and will not die a good death! "Sword Spirit Dao.
Wei Lai stood up solemnly: "I, Wei Lai, hereby make a Dao Heart Oath: Everything I heard from the Sword Spirit Seniors today will never be leaked, if there is leakage, then the Dao Heart will go crazy and will not die well!"
The oath of the immortal cultivation world is not so easy to violate, these are all guaranteed by their own cultivation. In the world of cultivating immortals, which pays attention to the cause and effect of the Dao heart, if you violate your oath and your heart is troubled, you will really go mad and die.
Seeing this, the sword spirit relaxed slightly, stood up, his eyes fell into reminiscence, and said slowly:
"The Neon Dress Fairy is the most talented among the seven founding ancestors of the Yuan Sword Sect, and in fact, the breakthrough in cultivation is also the fastest. However, when it really came to the Tribulation Period, she did not choose to raise her cultivation to the peak stage, but chose to suppress her cultivation to the middle level of the Tribulation Period. ”
"Just when the rest of the old ancestors chose to break through the tribulation period one by one and wanted to ascend to break through to a true immortal, the neon dress fairy still suppressed his cultivation and refused to leave. Because, the fairy always feels that there is a big problem with the so-called ascension breakthrough. ”
"During that time, the fairy lived happily. He even tried to reduce his cultivation by passing on his skills, so that his cultivation would always be at a level that would not trigger the Heavenly Tribulation. ”
"But...... Suddenly, one day, the fairy in the neon dress broke off the soul contract with me, and let me transform into an independent self to cultivate alone, and hand over all my savings to me as if I had explained the aftermath. Subsequently...... The fairy is gone. ”
"There is no catastrophe, no foreign enemy. The fairy disappeared from the sect, and I only had time to receive one last thought from her: the fairy left me an address, saying that if I couldn't find her one day, I would go to that place to find hope to save her. ”
"Of course, wanting you to save a mid-level monk in the Tribulation Period is tantamount to a fool's dream. However, I hope you will take on this task. At least leave me with some thoughts. Although one day, you will definitely need to go to that place of death and life to find the missing fairy in dress. After the sword spirit finished speaking, he looked at Wei Lai calmly.
"Please...... The seniors made me think about it. Wei Lai fell into deep thought.
There is no doubt that this is a tempting task.
As long as you take it, it is equivalent to being covered by this sword spirit predecessor with a superb status and strength. No ghosts and ghosts in the Yuan Sword Gate dared to move Wei Lai, even if they wanted to send a task to Wei Lai, Wei Lai could pull out the task given by the sword spirit as an excuse to refuse.
Not only that, Wei Lai can still use the care of the sword spirit to enjoy the top treatment in the Yuan Sword Gate.
As for the price that Wei Lai needs to pay, it seems very slight, and it is simply too worthwhile.
After all, if you really let Wei Lai carry out the task of rescuing the boss of the Tribulation Period, why do you have to wait for Wei Lai to break through to the Tribulation Period by himself, right?
The levels of immortal cultivation in the Lingyuan Continent are: Qi Refining Period, Foundation Building Period, Jindan Period, Yuan Infant Period, Refining Void Period, Transformation Period, Merge Period, Mahayana Period, and Tribulation Period.
With such a long road in the middle, Wei Lai may not be able to break through smoothly.
Even if Wei Lai has been successfully breaking through, then why would he have to wait for decades and hundreds of years, right?
And in the past tens and hundreds of years, Wei Lai can enjoy the support of the sword spirit at ease, and the benefits of the Yuan Sword Gate are not too cool.
But......
Suddenly, Wei Lai thought a little more.
If Wei Lai takes on this mission, it is likely that he will be targeted by a more powerful being.
Don't forget, it was a powerful force that could silently take away a mid-level monk of the Tribulation Period. The entire Yuan Sword Sect, and perhaps all the top combat forces of the entire Lingyuan Continent, were difficult to resist against that force.
In other words, after taking this task, the higher Wei Lai's cultivation may be, the faster he will die!
"So what?" said Wei Lai, "for a general, it is a shame to die of old age. Isn't it a shame for an ambitious person to die in bed? If I really have to face death in a few hundred years, it is better to let me die in something more meaningful!"
"There is a big problem with the Ascension Breakthrough, and I am also very interested in this matter!"
Thinking of this, Wei Lai stood up and said solemnly: "I am willing to swear to take this task!"
Sword Spirit looked at Wei Lai, and a glimmer of hope suddenly rose in his originally calm eyes, first in a daze, and then after a long time, he had a straight face, and said solemnly: "Actually, I have given myself a lot of hope. The reason why I asked the Shangqing Soul Examination Array to set a rule that every inspection result should be given to me by Lingjian Feishu is so that someone can save the Nishang Fairy. ”
"It's just that sometimes it backfires. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. ”
"You're not the first person to take on this task over the years, and you won't be the last one to follow. However, so far, all those who have taken on this task have died. They are all geniuses, but they are all unknown when they die outside, they only know that the fate card has fallen, and the person has disappeared, and the sect has sent masters to check many times, but no matter how they explore, they can't find clues. ”
"I'll give you a chance to give up, but if you do take it, there's no way back. ”
