Chapter XVIII Tasks

The two confronted each other, and finally attracted rich middle-aged.

The rich middle-aged is also very strange, Chen Mengsheng has only been in the room for more than a year, and his cooking skills have even surpassed He Laixin, and it seems that he is also a very talented disciple, so he abandoned He Laixin and made Chen Mengsheng the housekeeper.

From now on, Chen Mengsheng must cook the spiritual food himself, the spiritual food he cooks is stronger, and he does not deduct the spiritual materials privately, so that those elders are very satisfied, and the benefits are more, he does not have He Laixin's kind of shelf, and the senior brothers in the room are more and more convinced of him.

He Laixin could only stare dryly, he couldn't control Chen Mengsheng, and the benefits he got were more than before, and then he seemed to accept his fate, and he did his best every time he cooked spiritual food.

However, beneath the seemingly calm surface of the water, there are actually choppy waves. Once cooking an elder's spiritual food, He Laixin secretly put the wrong ingredients, the kind of ingredients he put in looked similar to the ingredients that should have been put in, but it was an ordinary plant, without a little spiritual power, and was finally discovered by the elder, and he was furious, and even the rich middle-aged man was scolded.

The rich and fat middle-aged man sprinkled all his anger on Chen Mengsheng, he was removed from the position of house manager, and He Laixin returned to the position. Chen Mengsheng couldn't argue, who made him the manager of the house, and in the end he could only bear the result silently. The other senior brothers knew that He Laixin had ghosts, but they couldn't help Chen Mengsheng. Cultivating immortals is not emotional, cultivating immortals is full of deceit, no one cares what the truth is, only seeks results.

Since then, Chen Mengsheng has also seen it, since He Laixin wants that position, give it to him, as long as his own benefits are indispensable. And I am also happy to be idle and have more time to practice.

Spring goes to autumn, and two years have passed.

Except for the days of making spiritual meals, in fact, the life of Magnolia Peak is very leisurely. But Chen Mengsheng didn't dare to be leisurely, his qualifications were already poor, and if he didn't work hard, he wouldn't be able to catch up with other disciples at all.

Later, he heard that there were special elders in the sect who told the disciples about cultivation knowledge, and from then on, he had extra homework and listened to those elders when he had nothing to do.

This narration is mainly aimed at formal disciples, and each formal disciple must listen to at least one elder's narration, which is considered the common task of formal disciples, while inner disciples do not have this requirement. In order to complete the task, most formal disciples will choose one or two narrations to listen to, and they will only listen to the narrations that are useful for cultivation.

However, Chen Mengsheng listened to the narration and chose to listen to it all. Originally, it was very special for an inner disciple to listen to the narration, and he chose to listen to all of them, and soon he got the attention of other formal disciples, and even some inner disciples had heard of it, and they all knew about this strange thing. Moreover, as a registered disciple, he has become an inner disciple, and the news that he is still an enviable disciple of the house has also spread, attracting their envy and jealousy.

"Chen Mengsheng, you are here again, come and sit next to me. A kind old man said to Chen Mengsheng with a smile.

This old man's narration of the history of cultivation in the mainland belongs to the category of anecdotes, and there are very few disciples who listen to him. But since Chen Mengsheng listened to the story, he had become a loyal listener to the old man, and he would rather listen to less of the cultivation experience than miss the old man's story.

"Speaking of which, the history of the mainland is very long. As I said last time, there was a Xiuzhen civilization before us, and there were many immortals, but after experiencing the legend of changing day and night, the ancient Xiuzhen civilization suddenly declined. Now, tens of thousands of years have passed, and there is a gradual scene of recovery. Legend has it that there were thirteen layers in the previous Enlightenment Realm, but now there are only twelve layers in the Enlightenment Realm, and no one knows what the thirteenth layer in the legend is. ”

"So, our current cultivation is an incomplete state?"

"Hehe, I knew you were going to ask, you, your brain is spinning so fast. You don't have to worry, it's just a legend after all. Do you think, the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, day and night always alternate, how can it happen that day changes night? It is very likely that it is a rumor, and when you think about it this way, it is not strange that the ancient Enlightenment Realm was rumored to be thirteen layers. ”

Chen Mengsheng nodded thoughtfully.

"Let's go on, the mainland ......"

After listening to the old man's story, Chen Mengsheng walked on the road with a puzzled face, he was very curious about what happened in ancient times 10,000 years ago, did it really happen when day changed from night to night?

When he was secretly curious, he heard someone call him.

"Hey, freak, have you finished listening to the 'Immortal Lecture'? Why don't you hurry up, what's the ink? Elder Liu's narration has also begun. ”

"Hahaha, this fool, everyone has to listen, I think if he has a doppelganger, he will definitely not be left behind. ”

"That is, if you have that spare time, why don't you practice for a while, listen to so much and be useful?"

"Of course it works, don't you see that he has become a celebrity among those elders now? ”

"Heh, I really regard this as a school, do you think that if you listen to the lectures well, you will learn something? This is cultivation, not learning, if I can practice by endorsing books, I think I would have become the ancestor of Sanhua a long time ago, hahaha. ”

The surrounding disciples burst into laughter.

Chen Mengsheng looked at them coldly, didn't speak, and walked straight to the place where Elder Liu was telling. He had experienced such a situation many times, and almost every time it appeared, he would be ridiculed by these formal disciples.

"I'm curious, do you think it's possible for him to participate in the competition of the three major sects?" In the distance, a middle-aged man looked at Chen Mengsheng and said.

"I don't know, it depends on how much he can digest these things. These disciples, when will they understand that it is also meaningful for the sect to set up these narratives. ”

His ears do not hear anything outside his body, and he only listens to the scriptures of the sages. Chen Mengsheng's life is very fulfilling, and he spends most of his time listening to narration every day, and even has less time to daydream.

He likes to listen to these stories very much, since he was a child, he likes to read books and listen to stories, and his flexible mind, especially in the memory area, seems to have a unique advantage. In the past, in the private school, it took two days for others to memorize an article, but he memorized it well in the morning, and it was not easy to forget, so he was always among the best.

At the beginning, he was full of joy, feeling that his qualifications must be very good, who knew that it turned out to be the Five Elements Spirit Root, a proper waste spirit root, and the qualifications were extremely poor. Zhang Xiaohu is a stupid person, but he has measured the three spirit roots, which is not much better than his waste spirit roots. I don't know how God distributes the spiritual roots, but I can be sure that it doesn't match a person's ingenuity.

There is less time for daydreaming, but cultivation is not left behind. There is spiritual food in the room, and as an inner disciple, there are many more spirit stones to worship every month than other disciples, so in more than half a year, he has cultivated to the realm of the fifth layer of enlightenment, and he is only one foot away from the sixth layer, and it is estimated that he will be able to enter the realm again in half a month at most.

However, the realm he showed was still the fourth layer of Kailing, in fact, at this time, he could already do not need to hide his cultivation, there were so many spirit stones in front of him, and there was excellent treatment in the back, and he would not be too shocked if he showed the realm of the sixth layer of Kailing now. But he is still cautious, and concealing his cultivation can also confuse his opponent, which can have a surprising effect, and he has been hiding his true cultivation.

At this time, he received the first sect mission. As long as they are disciples of the sect, they will do sect tasks, unless they become core disciples, that is, the disciples of the head of the sect and the major elders, they have the right not to do sect tasks, and other disciples must do sect tasks without exception.

The task of the registered disciple is to chop wood and carry water, and through these tasks, he can exchange for spirit runes, and then exchange spirit runes for spirit stones for cultivation. Formal disciples are different, their tasks are varied, and the rewards are rich. If a formal disciple wants to quickly improve his realm, doing sect tasks is a good shortcut, provided that he has that ability. Inner disciples are similar to formal disciples, but their realm is higher, the task is much more difficult, and the corresponding rewards are also very rich.

Each disciple is promoted to the next level of disciple and has a protection period. Registered disciples are promoted to official disciples with a protection period of half a year, they don't have to do sect tasks in this half year, just practice with peace of mind, and start doing sect tasks after half a year, each disciple has task indicators every year, if they are not completed on time, the light one will be punished with the task, and there is no reward, and the heavy one will be directly expelled from the sect and find another place. A formal disciple is promoted to an inner disciple and has a one-year protection period.

Chen Mengsheng was a little special, he should have started doing the sect task a year ago, but because he was directly promoted from a registered disciple to an inner disciple, he didn't have the strength of an inner disciple, and he couldn't do the task issued by the inner door, so he kept it on hold. Later, the sect also discovered this problem, so it was agreed that he should do the task with the official disciple and treat him as a formal disciple.

In this first task, the sect asked him and several other disciples of the fourth level of Enlightenment to capture a spirit beast in the middle of the first order.

This time, there were five people doing this task together, and it was a coincidence that Zhang Wei was also among them, and a group of five people stepped into the deep mountains around the Fire Flow Sect.

The mountains and forests were quiet, and occasionally a few birds flew by, and a fluttering sound frightened these disciples. Although the other four had done several missions, this was the first time to capture a mid-first-order spirit beast, and that mid-first-order spirit beast was more powerful than them.

Spirit beasts are also divided into levels, their realm is not as complex as that of monks, with "order" to dedicate, the first order of spirit beasts is equivalent to the monk's spiritual realm, up is the second order, the third order is like this. The monk's spiritual realm is somewhat special, divided into twelve layers. In order to distinguish the realms of these spirit beasts, they were also divided into the early, middle and late stages, and it happened that every four layers of the spirit realm corresponded to one period. The sect asked them to capture the mid-first-order spirit beasts, which exceeded their realm, and several disciples were very apprehensive.

Chen Mengsheng had actually reached the sixth layer of the Enlightenment, but he had never fought in actual combat, and he was also very apprehensive when he heard that the spirit beast was much more powerful than the human cultivator. He remembered that the villagers went hunting in groups, and at that time they were just ordinary beasts, and now they have to face spirit beasts, but how empty his heart is.

Roar, a howl that shook the mountains and forests came, and the legs of several disciples went limp.
