Chapter Forty-Eight: The Sect's Mission
Early in the morning, on a mountain cliff, there is a figure dancing with a sword, as if blending into the heaven and earth, every move brings up clouds and mist, wrapping around the body, otherworldly.
Suddenly, the figure shook, and suddenly retracted, and the clouds that were originally light as flocculent and like nothing were scattered like sharp blades at this time. About ten paces away, several trees seemed to be affected, their trunks trembling and their leaves dropping. Before the fallen leaves hit the ground, they are divided into two and two into four, and the incision is flat and straight.
At this time, Chu Ming was able to break through the air even with the breath he spitted out, and his whole body was like an unsheathed sword, with a sharp edge.
Call~
He let out a long breath, and his whole body was full of momentum. As if it was just a hallucination, nothing had happened.
"This should be regarded as a half-step sword intent, there is still a gap between the real sword intent and the real sword intent," Chu Ming secretly speculated.
The Qinglian Sword Technique can't actually be said to be a sword technique, because it's still only in its initial state, just an outline, and a concept. But it was with this concept that Chu Ming absorbed, studied, and finally sublimated. Slowly refine it, and even deduce the sword moves step by step. The original abstract concept is concretized. This is simply appalling, you must know that self-created martial arts must at least require the cultivation of the Heaven and Earth Realm to do it, although Chu Ming is deepening his original understanding, but it is enough to be regarded as a monster.
And not only that, after more than three months of study and deduction, Chu Ming began to slowly come into contact with a new realm, the kendo realm that all swordsmen dream of - sword intent!
In fact, Chu Ming could already begin to feel the existence of the sword intent, but the sword intent was too mysterious and ethereal, and it was always unnecessary, every time it felt like it was only a layer of veil, but in fact, it was thousands of miles apart, and this time he suddenly had an epiphany, captured a trace, and absorbed it, although in the end it was only a half-step sword intent, but looking at the entire Shuiyun Sect, it was absolutely unique!
"It's time to hone your actual combat ability, it's better to talk about it on paper than to experience it firsthand" Chu Ming felt that he had now reached a bottleneck, and the bottleneck not only existed in cultivation, but also in comprehension, after all, people's spirit and spirit could not be kept at their peak forever, and there would be times of fatigue.
Now Chu Ming has reached this time, after more than three months of training, Chu Ming has already improved his cultivation to the fourth level of the Spirit Skill Mirror, and has officially entered the middle level of the Spirit Skill Mirror. There has also been some progress in swordsmanship and boxing, but Chu Ming feels that there will not be much improvement in the near future, and it is better to increase the actual combat experience, hone the skills and skillful use of martial arts, and by the way, you can also try the power of martial arts, so that you can have an accurate grasp of your own strength.
Thinking of this, Chu Ming cleaned up and prepared to go to Lingyun Hall to see if there was a suitable sect task to take.
......
If you look down from a high place now, you will find that the empty space just now is centered on Chu Ming, and a green lotus pattern the size of a zhang round is about an inch into the ground.
......
Lingyun Palace:
Dozens of disciples had gathered in the imposing hall at this time, and there were other disciples who kept coming.
Last time, Chu Ming only noticed it on the inner door martial arts list, and as soon as he entered the main hall at this moment, he saw the stone pillars that reached the sky, and the entire ground was paved with white marble, although dozens of people gathered, it still seemed a little empty.
"Chu Ming, are you finally going out today?" Zhou Ze walked over with a smile, and he was also very impressed by Chu Ming's hard work, and he was also speechless, as if he had a grudge against himself.
Zhao Feng followed closely behind Zhou Ze and also stepped forward to say hello.
"I feel that I may have something to gain, so let's see if there is a suitable task to practice my hands!" Chu Ming was also smiling, Chu Ming was still quite interested in the friendship between the three of them, the martial arts road was long and boring, and it was a good choice to have a few like-minded friends to encourage and discuss with each other.
"Feng'er and I have already taken over a mission, I'll tell you the rules" Zhou Ze pulled Chu Ming and walked towards the inside of the main hall.
Zhao Feng's face was slightly red, and he also followed, Chu Ming noticed the changes in the two of them, and he also smiled silently.
"There are two kinds of tasks, one is the task within the sect and the other is the task outside the sect. ”
Inside the sect and outside the sect?
"The tasks within the sect are some tasks issued by the sect itself, such as some killing tasks, which are aimed at some thieves with cultivation and the like, which can not only hone actual combat, but also establish the image of the sect; Zhou Ze said as he walked
"I see"
"The rewards for tasks within the sect are generally some spirit stones or contribution points, while tasks outside the sect are generally gold"
"The sect will be classified according to the difficulty of the task, there are three levels of white, gray, and black, each level is divided into easy, average and difficult, and the rewards are different according to the difficulty."
"Don't think about the black-level task, generally only the core disciples dare to take it, even the top ten inner disciples have to weigh it, and the gray-level is generally only the top 100 dare to take it, don't be afraid of your jokes, last time Feng'er and I worked together to take a gray-level simple task, and we paid some price to complete it" Zhou Ze smiled bitterly, he thought that his strength was the first person in Shifeng City, after all, he had always been hidden, but he didn't expect that there was a Chu Ming, so that he couldn't see through, even if he used all his strength, he would only win or lose, and when he came to Shuiyun Sect, he was even stronger than himself.
If other disciples knew about this, they might vomit blood on the spot. Through the special trick of the outer gate, he entered the inner gate that month, and two months later, he took on the gray-level task for the first time! and completed it! This is in the eyes of most disciples, it is against the rhythm of the sky. That's not enough, how do they live!
In fact, from this aspect, we can see that the level of people is not the level of nobility and lowliness, but the level of mind and realm. This is not unsatisfying greed, nor is it ambitious, but it comes from the heart, which also shows the difference between genius and mediocrity to a certain extent, and many people are destined to be looked up to. Their small steps forward seem so unattainable to many.
After chatting a few words, Zhou Ze took Zhao Feng and left, after all, they also had their own things to do, and after saying goodbye to each other, Chu Ming moved his gaze to the jade bibs in front of him. There are a total of nine jade bibs, and for a difficult series, each jade bib is divided into two pieces, the left is the task within the sect, and the right is the task outside the sect.
Chu Ming came to the first jade, corresponding to a white-level simple task. glanced at it from above, there was nothing that attracted Chu Ming, it was all trivial things, and there was even a small family surnamed Zhang who wanted to hire someone to beat the second young master of another family, and the children's family was making trouble, this sect really took any task, Chu Ming laughed dumbly.
Then Chu Ming walked in a little more, and came to the other side of the jade, which corresponded to the white-level difficult difficulty task.
At the top is a white skull with several rows of small letters underneath:
Mission: Eradicate the Black Stone Bandits
Synopsis: The big boss of the Wushi bandits was originally a loose cultivator, and later joined a small family as a guard, and later coveted the beauty of the family lady, defiled it and brutally killed, and finally became a thief, pulled up a group of people and horses in a place called Wushi Town to become the king of the mountain, robbed the past merchants, and abducted local women. Sin is unforgivable!
Force analysis: The big boss of the Wushi bandits is the five-fold cultivation of the spiritual aperture, the second master and the third master's three-fold spiritual aperture, there are more than 100 celebrities and horses under his command, and there are about 30 cultivators above the spiritual aperture mirror.
Difficulty: Peak of White difficulty
Task reward: 10 lower-grade spirit stones and 1,000 sect contribution points
Chu Ming secretly said in his heart, you must know the advantages of having more people and more people, if you go alone, unless your strength is much higher, you can't escape too much if you shoot the spirit mirror and go to a high-level martial artist, after all, the other party is too powerful, and if you are careless, you will inevitably not be taken advantage of by the other party, and you will hate it on the spot.
However, this is not impossible, for example, the flower problem of two or three peak martial artists in the middle stage of the Spirit Technique Mirror should not be too big, after all, the strength of the disciples of the sect is not comparable to ordinary martial artists of the same realm. And it is not impossible to be a genius disciple, such as Chu Ming and Zhou Ze
It's just that after all, it's the first time to do a task, and many details are not familiar, so don't be so high-profile, thinking about it, Chu Ming decided to take over an ordinary practice first.
His gaze slowly moved down, and suddenly an extra-sect task attracted Chu Ming's attention:
Mission: Escort the Yun family's medicine collection team into Senmei Valley to collect medicine.
Introduction: Senmei Valley is filled with black fog, and there are many second-level demon beasts in the depths of the valley, and there are not a few third-level demon beasts.
Difficulty: White level difficulty
Reward: 30,000 taels of gold and 10 Hui Zhen Pills.
Note: The task is not unique, if there are more than five people, it will be filtered.
Sure enough, Chu Ming saw that there were two identical task lists next to him, and without too much hesitation, Chu Ming reached out and tore one off.
"What! He actually took advantage of the white-level difficult mission!"
"I know him, he is a newly promoted inner disciple, and his nouns are about 400 outside. ”
"Four hundred people dare to take on white-level difficult tasks!
"It doesn't matter if he dies, I hope I don't lose the face of our Water Cloud Sect, after all, we will have to screen it when the time comes. ”
"Just that's it"
............
Ignoring everyone's gaze, Chu Ming left the Lingyun Hall directly, and after showing the token to the mountain guarding disciples, he rented a thousand-mile horse!
This thousand-mile horse is not an ordinary horse, but a half-demon horse with half demon blood. You can travel 3,000 miles a day, and you can walk on steep mountain roads.
Of course, the price of this thousand-mile horse is also amazingly expensive, and one horse needs 10,000 taels of gold. The average small family can't afford it. If you buy a horse just to do the task, it is estimated that the gain outweighs the loss, and this Qianli horse is not bought by the cabbage, so in order to facilitate the task of the disciples of the sect, the sect has a special rental place, and the price of 100 contribution points per day is rented.
Choosing a sturdy thousand-mile horse at random, Chu Ming turned over his horse and galloped out.
Just after Chu Ming left, a person came to Lingyun Pavilion, exuding a cold aura all over his body, wearing a moon-white robe. It feels like a humanoid ice sculpture. The surrounding disciples avoided him one after another, distancing themselves from him.
The disciple glanced casually at the jade bib, and then a bloodthirsty smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he waved in the void. Tear that slash mission off,
If Chu Ming or Zhou Ze and the others were here, they would definitely recognize his identity.
The eldest young master of Lanfeng City, Li Yiming!
