Chapter 3: Sect Mission
Yang Xian took on a sect task, and the task content was to investigate the disappearance of the mortals of the Zhou family in Wuyin Village, because within the Spirit Sword Sect, as an outer disciple, he had to complete a sect task every month, and he could not shirk it. Otherwise, why does the sect provide you with cultivation land and monthly spirit stones, the sect's task is the core of the sect's operation, and in the sect is a thing called contribution value as a universal currency, this contribution value can only be obtained through the sect's tasks, property inheritance or transactions with the sect, and in order to ensure fairness and justice, the sect stipulates that the sect's disciples cannot trade contribution points privately. Outer disciples like Yang Xian have five thousand in the Spirit Sword Sect, and most of them are in the Qi refining period, if every outer disciple does the tasks according to the regulations, then the development of the sect will get better and better.
Yang Xian's sect is a three-grade sect, and the highest combat power of the three-grade sect corresponds to the Jindan period, the head of the Xuanyi Zhenjun, as the strongest person in the Spirit Sword Sect, cultivates in the late stage of the Jindan, and the rest of the Lingjian Sect has 7 strong people in the Jindan period, and there are more than 150 disciples in the foundation building period, plus more than 5,000 disciples in the Qi refining period, the entire Spirit Sword Sect can be regarded as a behemoth.
As a three-grade sect, the Spirit Sword Sect is a three-grade sect, because of its strong overall strength, it occupies a radius of 30,000 miles, and affects the area within a radius of 50,000 miles, which can be regarded as a vast area, and only such a vast area can have the soil for the survival of the three-grade sect, if it is a fourth-grade sect, it is often hundreds of thousands of miles, millions of miles of radiation area, and only such a vast area can allow immortal cultivators to be free to cross and horizontally, and at the same time, more mortals can survive, and only then can there be a steady stream of mortals with spiritual roots to join the sect. Mortals are the foundation of a third-grade sect like the Spirit Sword Sect, and it is also the foundation of the second-grade or first-grade sect and family attached to it, in this land called the Xuanling Continent, the survival of mortals is always challenged by a lot, especially the Spirit Sword Sect is on the edge of the Western Wilderness Forest, the survival of mortals is even more difficult, and various problems emerge one after another.
The task that Yang Xian received this time was to investigate the case of the disappearance of the mortals of the Zhou family in the Wuyin Village of the Wuyin Mountain Range at the very edge of the Western Desolate Forest, and this mission was reported by the Zhou family, a family under the Spirit Sword Sect. Because this area is the territory of the Zhou family, the Zhou family is sheltered in the big tree of the Spirit Sword Sect, and when it encounters a situation that cannot be solved, it will be reported to the Spirit Sword Sect in time, and the Spirit Sword Sect will release such an incident as a sect task to the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect, generally according to the difficulty layer for the first grade, the second grade, and the third grade task, and it is divided into simple, ordinary, and difficult three kinds. Investigate the case of the disappearance of mortals in Wuyin Village, Wuyin Mountain Range, at the edge of the Western Wilderness Forest, about 12,000 miles away from the sect, the task period is three months, and those who cultivate immortals at the third level and below can receive it, and complete the reward of 5 spirit stones and 2 sect contribution points. Many of these similar investigation tasks are released on the mission hall as sect tasks, and the personnel who receive the tasks are limited to immortal cultivators in the early stage of qi refining, just to train low-level outer disciples. There are many tasks released by the task hall every year or even every day, and there will be disciples to pick them up every day, and there will be a steady stream of sect task sources, such as the direct release of the sect, the elders, deacons, and disciples of the sect, the report of the small family, and the report of the subordinate sect.
In order to complete the task of the sect, Yang Xian just received this task, the reward for this task is not rich at all, even if he uses the wind control technique, the disciples in the early stage of qi refining can walk about 600 miles a day, and it will take about 40 days to go back and forth, and they have to investigate the situation, the time can only be said to be barely enough, this investigation task is a thankless task, and the immortal cultivators in the early stage of qi refining are more willing to do some tasks that are close to each other and convenient for cultivation, such as taking care of the spiritual field, taking care of the elixir, mining for the sect, and looking for certain medicinal herbs, Guarding the Danfang shops and doing chores, inspecting the sect, guarding the cave and other easy jobs. Yang Xian's task of this sect is for immortal cultivators in the early stage of qi refining, because of the low cultivation, there is a risk of going out, and at the same time, it is more than a month to waste time on the road, and the cultivation in the early stage of qi refining cannot be guaranteed normally, and the early stage of qi refining should have taken time to cultivate and increase cultivation, and the time is squeezed again and again, how can there be extra time to waste. Yang Xian's willingness to do this sect task is to take a fancy to the three-month period of this task, if this task is done, there will be no other tasks within three months, although this task is limited to three months, but the general investigation tasks are very simple, and they can be completed in a few days at most, plus if you don't sleep on the road, you can save half of the time, then you can complete it in one month at most, and the remaining two months can be used freely, whether it is to concentrate on cultivation or do other things.
So Yang Xian took over the task of this sect and then came to the Zhou family for handover, and after the handover was completed, he entered the depths of the Wuyin Mountain Range to explore, but inadvertently found the cave of the Yin Wind Snake, and found this hundred-year-old dragon pattern spirit grass, and this hundred-year-old dragon pattern spirit grass is only guarded by a first-order mid-grade Yin Wind Snake, although this first-order mid-grade Yin Wind Snake is at least equivalent to a fourth-level Qi refining immortal cultivator, Yang Xian thought about it again and again, and then danced on the tip of the knife with two divine talismans, and took the opportunity to seize the grass and escape, and the previous scene happened.
Although at present, the task of the sect has not been completed, but it has obtained the extremely precious spirit grass, it took 6 days before and after, plus 12 days to hurry, when Yang Xian was traveling 1000 miles a day, and it has taken 18 days in time, but nothing has been obtained, Yang Xian thought about speeding up the progress, so he left the temporary cliff that had been stored for nearly 5 days, and then explored the Wuyin Mountain Range, so he continued to search according to the clues provided by the Zhou family, and it turned out to be around the hundred-year-old dragon pattern grass, Yang Xian thought: It seems that he didn't find the wrong direction at the beginning, Wuyin Village is not far from the Wuyin Mountain Range, and mortals are missing within a radius of 20 miles at most, even if they have secular skills, they are only within a radius of 100 miles, and the entire Wuyin Mountain Range stretches for more than 500 miles, and more than 100 miles can be regarded as going deep into it How can mortals disappear to such a distant place, the people of the Zhou family did not tell the truth, but in this way, there are only more than 20 Yipin families of Qi refining and cultivating immortals, how dare they deceive the behemoth of the Spirit Sword Sect, I am afraid that there is a hidden secret, this sect's task is not simple! In other words, if it was a simple task, how could it be reported to the Spirit Sword Sect?
Yang Xian thought: No wonder the situation where the Zhou clan and I wanted to stop talking when they handed over was a little strange, it seemed to be unspeakable, and the other party's eyes were also a little strange, as if they were disdainful and pity. The other party did not say anything about the handover task, as a disciple of the upper sect, Yang Xian did not ask, especially everyone is an immortal cultivator, and they all have their own privacy, if they probe into the privacy of others without authorization, they can only say that this is the way to self-destruction.
Yang Xian reviewed the situation of this mission again, and obviously felt that there was a problem in it, this mission felt that the Zhou family was a little perfunctory, Yang Xian noticed that something was wrong, so he couldn't act without permission, not to mention that now he was still chased and killed by the Yin Wind Snake, in case he encountered it again, even if he was at the fourth level of Qi refining, that is, the cultivation in the middle stage of Qi refining, he didn't dare to fight with a spirit beast with the same cultivation, with the same cultivation, the means of immortal cultivators were more than spirit beasts, but the flesh of spirit beasts made immortal cultivators out of reach, this was innate, Even if he specializes in cultivating the body, he is barely close to the spirit beast physique at most, and Yang Xian is now destitute except for the dragon pattern spirit grass, and if other things happen during the mission, it may be fatal.
The methods of ordinary immortal cultivators such as pills, talismans, magic weapons, formations, etc. are all help, at present, Yang Xian's own magic weapon is still the most ordinary inferior magic weapon, plus the imperial art, the sneak attack is okay, if you attack head-on, the effect is extremely average, and you can only be majestic in front of mortals. Yang Xian fantasized that if there was a high-quality grade inferior magic weapon, or even a low-grade magic weapon, then it would be another world, but high-quality inferior magic weapons and even low-grade magic weapons were very rare, because refining tools should not only consider the art of casting, but also have suitable materials, and the success rate of refining tools also had an impact, mainly because the materials were rare, because the immortal cultivators used them must be high-quality, ordinary materials could not withstand the baptism of heaven and earth aura at all, and the materials of various spiritual ores also needed to be purified before they could be used. Only the essence of the material can be used to refine magic weapons, and only then can it become a weapon for immortal cultivators.
Under normal circumstances, the weapons of immortal cultivators are divided into two categories: magic weapons and magic weapons, and magic weapons and magic weapons can be divided into three categories: lower grade, middle grade, and upper grade. The magic weapons and magic weapons used by immortal cultivators are extremely powerful, and Yang Xiandao hearsay: The magic weapon is in hand, and I have it in the world.
The most common defective magic weapon in Yang Xian's hand is a semi-finished magic weapon, after the refiner initially failed in the process of refining the magic weapon, the refiner had a whimsical idea to reuse the waste to refine the product, forming the prototype of the defective magic weapon, and then with the deepening of refining research, the defective magic weapon was officially included in the refining category, as a standard weapon for low-level immortal cultivators, and at the same time, because the Spirit Sword Sect has too many outer disciples every ten years, the resources of the magic weapon are too small, and only some personnel in the sect can obtain the real magic weapon, The disciples who can obtain the magic weapon are the core disciples of the sect and even the foundation building deacons, they are the cornerstone of the sect. Most of the outer disciples like Yang Xian, the Spirit Sword Sect used the most ordinary inferior magic weapons as the standard.
There are three kinds of defective magic weapons, one is ordinary defective magic weapons, which depict 1-3 first-order formation prohibitions, one is a divine soldier-level defective magic weapon, which depicts 4-6 first-order formation prohibitions, and the other is a high-quality grade defective magic weapon, which depicts 7-9 first-order formation prohibitions, of which ordinary defective magic weapons are mostly used by mortals and scattered cultivators, and generally only 1 or 2 first-order formation prohibitions are depicted, and there are very few of them, because mortals and scattered cultivators have low attainments, And like the Spirit Sword Sect, the sect is generally equipped with ordinary inferior magic weapons, but it depicts 3 first-order formation prohibitions. Even the most ordinary inferior magic weapon issued by the Spirit Sword Sect was better than the ordinary inferior magic weapon used by scattered cultivators and mortals, because the materials and refining techniques were far from each other, and this was the advantage of the great sect.
Yang Xian silently calculated, this sect's task seems to have gone beyond the simple level of Yipin, although it is only an investigation, it is also divided into several situations, the reason for the fact is at least to be investigated, as for whether it can be solved, it is another matter. Yang Xian took out the black iron sword from the storage bag and clenched it tightly in his hand, as if this was the only way to feel safe. Yang Xian thought, fortunately, he is already in the middle stage of qi refining now, it shouldn't be a problem to do a simple investigation, as for whether it can be solved, it is another matter, besides, this 500-mile Fog Hidden Mountain Range is only 12,000 miles away from the sect, if there is any situation, the problem has already been solved by the high-level immortal cultivators of the sect, and safety is not a problem. Moreover, Yang Xian had also checked the information of the Fog Hidden Mountain Range before, and the high-level immortal cultivators of the sect had also explored, but there were only some first-order low-grade, first-order middle-grade spirit beasts in the mountain range, and there were not many of them, and at the same time, there was a similar mist formation formed by natural mist in the depths of the Fog Hidden Mountain Range, this formation was not worth mentioning for high-level immortal cultivators, but for these first-order spirit beasts and immortal cultivators in the Qi refining period, they had the feeling of walking into a labyrinth, and it was easy to get lost, and at the same time, this also made the spirit beasts of the Fog Hidden Mountain Range unable to come out and harm one side, if it could cause harm, I don't know how many times it has been eradicated by the behemoth of the Spirit Sword Sect, and it exists! No impact.
