Lin Ze didn't expect that sitting in a teleportation array would be so expensive, two points back and forth, this is one-fifth of the reward for his mission, the task has not been done yet, this has already paid out twenty percent of the reward, it is simply a pit!

Fortunately, he only has one person, if five people form a team to do this task, won't it be completely in vain?!

For the stingy old man, Lin Xue scolded in his heart for a while, but when he got out of the teleportation array, he quickly put down the matter and looked at the Tiantian Mountain in front of him.

Although it is located near the Heavenly Desolate Land, it is far less dangerous than the Confused Sea Area, and there are many rare medicinal materials and plants in the Heavenly Soil Mountain, as well as various exotic beasts, making it one of the most famous mission places of the Sword Martial Arts Academy.

The teleportation array was set up at the foot of Tianyang Mountain, and when Lin Ze came out of the teleportation array, he saw at a glance that there were many students coming and going around him, some of them were happy to return after completing their tasks, and some of them had just arrived just like him. Of course, there are also some people who are sad about the failure of the mission, and even those who are seriously injured and need first aid.

Although Tianyang Mountain is not a place of great evil, there are many poor mountains and evil waters in it, and there are countless vicious beasts, and people who are not strong enough want to walk back and forth in Tianyang Mountain safely, which is simply impossible.

Even if it is a student of the Sword Martial Academy, many people are buried here every year.

Some people are developed because of the Tianyang Mountain, and some people are dying because of the Tianyang Mountain, the weak are eliminated, and the strong survive, which is the same truth since ancient times.

However, in order to minimize the unnecessary sacrifices of the students, the Sword Martial Arts Academy still arranged some medical personnel in Tianyang Mountain, so that the injured students could be treated in time.

With the task card, each student can get a whistle from the staff of the medical class, and if they are seriously injured, they can blow the whistle and medical staff will soon come to treat them.

Of course, whistles are not free, they require a credit, and a whistle can only be used once.

In the Sword Martial Arts Academy, points are the foundation for a student to gain a foothold, whether it is eating, drinking, or cultivating, they need to use it. Suffice it to say, if you don't have points, you will hardly be able to move an inch in the Sword Martial Academy.

This is also one of the reasons why Lin Ze will come to do tasks to earn points, at least the other reason, of course, is experience. The tasks in the Sword Martial Arts Academy can often help to improve the strength and combat experience of the students.

Having said that, one of the better things about the teleportation array is that the duration of the whistle is permanent, and you don't need to buy it every time, and if you don't get hurt all the time, the whistle doesn't make much sense.

Although whistles are not mandatory to buy them, Lin Ze is also confident in his own strength, but after all, he will not lose his self-esteem to the point of ignoring danger. It was a good deal to exchange a point for a chance to save a life, so he didn't hesitate to buy a whistle from the medical team...... Of course, the points are still owed.

Afterwards, Lin Xue followed the large army in front and set off for Tianyang Mountain.

In addition to those low-level tasks, as long as they are star-level tasks, they are not easy to complete, and they require not only strength but also time. For example, the purple bamboo seedlings that Lin Xue needed for this task were located about a hundred miles on the west side of Tianyang Mountain, and it would take a lot of time to reach the destination.

And during this period, people who are not strong enough may not even reach their destination, and they will be eaten by evil beasts.

So gradually, the students spontaneously formed a form of team, and before reaching the destination of their mission, they formed a team of fifty or sixty people, so that even if they encountered the attack of the herd, there would not be much danger, and the mortality rate was greatly reduced.

Anyway, there is no conflict in the task, and acting together will not harm anyone's interests, unless the two sides have enmity themselves, otherwise, no one will be stupid enough to refuse something that is good for everyone.

Soon after, after walking more than 50 miles, the original team of more than 60 people was not even half there. It's not that people are dead, it's that those people have already gone to their own destinations to do their missions. Although there were several battles on the road, there were no casualties.

This is the advantage of being outnumbered, even if it is a ferocious beast, it is not very daring to attack in the face of so many people.

The deeper you go, the fewer people in the team, the relative danger will increase, but there is no way to do it, the task above the star is originally accompanied by the danger of dying, everyone will do it when they are conscious, if they don't even dare to take this risk, they will not achieve anything in the future.

After another hour or so, at the end, there were only two people left on the west side of Tianyang Mountain. One is Lin Ze, and the other is a girl named Su Yun, who is relatively delicate, with a few distinguishes, looks a little bit of a small jasper, and is in the realm of refining gods, from Lin Ze's point of view, she is about the same strength as Zhong Li.

Su Yun is one of the few students in this team who is at the same level as Lin Ze, plus the direction of the mission location is the same, and he has said a few words along the way.

After a while, they came to a fork in the road, and the two were about to part ways, when Su Yun said, "Lin Ze's task is to pick purple bamboo seedlings, right?"

"How do you know?" Lin Xue was slightly stunned, he didn't remember what he had said.

Su Yun smiled: "Because the direction of your side happens to be the Purple Bamboo Forest, and I also know this task, but I didn't dare to take it." ”

"I see. ”

"By the way, there are many purple snakes in the purple bamboo forest, they are very easy to camouflage, and at a cursory glance, you think they are branches and leaves, but when you get closer, you will find that it is a purple snake. And it is extremely poisonous, once you are bitten by a purple snake, if you don't get treatment within three hours, you will definitely die, Lin Xue must be careful. Su Yun reminded seriously.

"Don't worry, I'll be careful. You too. Lin Ze smiled and nodded.

"Hmm. ”

The two nodded, and then went their separate ways.

Walking alone in the woods, Lin Ze was vigilant, always paying attention to the surrounding environment, and after about half an hour, Lin Ze suddenly found that there was purple not far ahead...... There is no doubt that the purple bamboo forest has arrived.

Whether it is the Purple Bamboo Forest, the Purple Bamboo Seedling or the Purple Snake, these three things he will definitely encounter on this mission, there has already been a detailed explanation in the task manual, and Su Yun has also reminded him before, Lin Xue naturally will not take it lightly, shook the long sword in his hand, and walked forward cautiously.

As soon as he stepped into the purple bamboo forest, Lin Xue felt an extremely strange atmosphere...... Quiescence!

There was silence.

Although he was walking alone in the forest before, he could still hear some sounds, such as the sound of the wind blowing, or the sound of small animals running around, but now, except for his own footsteps, Lin Ze could no longer hear any sound.

It's as if there is no life here except for himself, not even the wind, has never patronized the purple bamboo forest!

Such a strange atmosphere naturally made Lin Xue even more vigilant.

He walked forward step by step, his eyes looking around from time to time, looking for purple bamboo seedlings, and at the same time beware of purple snakes.

But after looking for a long time, the purple bamboo seedlings were not found, and the purple snake that was said to be good never appeared, and the purple in front of him was all covering the sky, but it made Lin Xue a little dazzled.

"Something is wrong, my vision is starting to blur......" Lin Xue stretched out his hand and rubbed the corners of his eyes, with some ominous premonitions in his heart.

It stands to reason that with his physique, even if he doesn't sleep for a few days and nights, it won't have the slightest impact on his eyesight, but now, less than an hour after entering the purple bamboo forest, his vision begins to become trance, which is really difficult to reassure.

What's more, there is no mention of this in the instructions at all.

At this moment, a hint of alarm suddenly arose in Lin Ze's heart, and he turned around sharply to look in the direction where the dangerous aura was coming, it was a purple bamboo, more than ten meters high, with dense branches and leaves, standing quietly seven or eight meters in front of him.

However, when Lin Ze's gaze swept over, the dangerous aura disappeared in an instant.

"Is it an illusion?" Lin Xue was suspicious in his heart, carefully observed this purple bamboo for a while, and finally confirmed that there was no purple snake on it, and scratched his head, "Maybe it's really me thinking too much, no matter what, this is just a one-star mission......

Sou!

Suddenly, a branch on the purple bamboo fell, but it seemed to be alive, and it shot towards Lin Xue quickly.

Purple snake?!

Lin Ze was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly swung his sword to slash away, but as soon as the long sword was cut off, the branch disappeared from him in an instant, and the next moment, Lin Ze only felt a pain in his left hand, and when he looked down, he saw that the branch had been inserted into his arm.

It was more than two feet long, as thick as a flute, purple all over, with a slightly pointed tail, and the two eyes on the head showed an infinite fierce light...... Where is this branch, this is clearly a purple snake!

Lin Xue didn't pay attention, he had been bitten by this purple line snake, but although he was not shocked, the Sky Splitting Sword intent was shocked, and the purple line snake was immediately shocked and flew out, and then fled at an extremely fast speed.

Although Lin Xue was in a hurry to use the Void Splitting Sword Intent, the power was not very great, but this purple line snake was not dead when it hit the frontal move, which immediately made Lin Ze feel frightened.

However, how could Lin Xue let it go, the sword intent shot in an instant, and before the purple snake escaped, he had already chased it, the long sword slashed down, snorted, and finally cut off the head of the purple snake with a snort.

The two bodies of the purple snake fell to the ground, the mouth of the head was wide open, revealing two fangs, while the body below the head was trembling violently.

The hundred-legged insect, the column is not stiff, the head of the purple snake is cut off, there is absolutely no reason for immortality, Lin Xue naturally will not pay attention to it anymore, but immediately tear off the sleeve of his left arm and check his arm.

Missing, Lin Ze couldn't help but gasp.
