Chapter VII Tasks
Wang first arrived at the Qinglongmen station, and found that there were a large number of people inside and outside the hall, dozens of times more than last time, and it was estimated that there were one or two thousand people.
I took a closer look at the jade slip on the release wall, and sure enough, there was a place that showed the task released by the Qiandan Sect. The Qiandan Sect is a small sect attached to the Qinglong Sect, mainly based on alchemy.
The task is to go to the Beibi Mountain, the sphere of influence of Qinglongmen, to collect the moon velvet flower, which is one of the medicinal sources for refining several Qi refining period pills such as Zhuji Dan and Qianyuan Dan.
Linghua Lingcao, corresponding to the elixir refined by its main medicine or medicinal lead, including Qi refining stage, foundation building period, Jindan stage and Yuan Infant stage elixir, is correspondingly divided into low, medium, high-level and top-level spirit grass.
Each order of spiritual grass is divided into the best, the upper grade, the middle grade and the lower grade according to its year and medicinal efficacy, and some spirit grasses are only divided into the best, the upper grade and the lower grade, not the middle grade.
The moon velvet flower is a low-level spirit flower. It blooms every year after a small cold and before a big cold, and the flowers bloom on the moontail tree, and a tree blooms about once every three years.
The age and size of the trees are different, ranging from dozens to more than 100 flowers each time, there are 50 to 200 years of lower grade moon velvet flowers and 200 to 500 years of upper grade moon velvet flowers, as for the best moon velvet flowers of more than 500 years, it has not appeared for many years.
The reward of the Qiandan Sect is five high-grade or twenty low-grade moon velvet flowers, in exchange for one Qianyuan Dan.
Beibi Mountain is one hundred and fifty miles south of Fang City, with a radius of several hundred miles, and there are demon beasts from time to time.
The moontail flower grows in the deep valley or under the broken edge where there is no sunlight all year round, and the surrounding must be rich in aura, and due to the attraction of aura, there are often demon beasts guarding it.
Therefore, although he knows that there is this kind of flower in Beibi Mountain, there is only one monk who can enter and find it, and if he finds it, he will be better than the demon beast, and he must be more careful not to encounter human monks to kill people and seize treasures.
However, even if you don't find the moontail flower, you still have the opportunity to encounter a demon beast and win the demon pill and demon bone after killing.
The demon pill can be used for alchemy, talisman refining and refining tools, and for monks of the same level, it is a great supplement after alchemy. Demon bones can be used to refine magic weapons and runes, increasing the chances of victory against the enemy.
In the cultivation realm of the Taitian Continent, the demon beasts are divided into levels one to nine, corresponding to the beginning, middle, and end stages of human cultivators' qi refining, the beginning, middle, and end stages of foundation building, and the beginning, middle, and end stages of Jindan's cultivation.
The ninth-level demon beast can already be transformed into a half-human and half-demon, with about half the spiritual intelligence of a human being.
The demon beast in the infancy stage is no longer called a demon beast, but a demon monk or demon cultivator. The demon cultivators have all turned into sincere and benevolent forms, have the same spiritual wisdom as human beings, and understand human language.
Beibi Mountain has been formed for hundreds of thousands of years, and in the last few thousand years, most of the fourth- to sixth-level demon beasts, and a few seventh- to ninth-level demon beasts, have been slaughtered by the Qinglongmen.
Nowadays, there are a large number of first- to third-level demon beasts and a small number of fourth- to sixth-level demon beasts, and seventh-level to nineth-level demon beasts have not been discovered for many years.
The Qiandan Sect and even the Qinglong Sect did not have enough manpower to get enough moon velvet flowers, so they could only use heavy treasure rewards to attract many Qi refining period cultivators to try their luck. In this way, the harvest is widely sown and harvested, and it can barely maintain the alchemy needs of the moon velvet flower every year.
Wang first calculated, two days later, it was Xiaohan, and there were so many people in the lobby, most of them came to receive the task. As long as you hand in five spirit stones to the resident personnel, you can receive the task jade slip.
The jade slip contains the map of the terrain of Beibi Mountain and the growth habits and appearance characteristics of the moontail flower, and several collection points found in previous years are also marked, as well as the divine imprint of the Qinglongmen monk. With this imprint, there is a permit from the Qinglong Gate to enter the Beibi Mountain to collect medicine.
After all, in addition to the moon velvet flower in Beibi Mountain, there are some other spirit flowers and spiritual grasses that have been discovered, plus the existence of fourth- to sixth-level demon beasts, entering Baoshan, without permission, once discovered by the Qinglongmen Mountain Patrol Monk Team, it will be killed.
Each team of the mountain patrol team has a leader in the early stage of foundation building to prevent foreign forces from trespassing on the treasure, and few monks take this risk for a few spirit stones.
Wang Xian couldn't help but admire Qinglongmen's approach. Entering Baoshan, it is good to have one out of a hundred who can successfully obtain the treasure, but many Qi refining period cultivators are still flocking to it, and those who do not have the treasure must hand over the spirit stone, and those who have the treasure will generally be handed over to the Qianyuan Sect in exchange for the elixir.
Wang first considered the risk of this trip, the treasure hunt in Beibi Mountain should mainly attract monks in the early and middle stages of Qi refining, with his current net worth, even if he encounters a monk at the end of Qi refining, with the mana of the short foundation building period possessed by the middle-level talisman, he should be more than able to protect himself alone.
He looked around, most of the monks who came to receive the task were going in groups of three or five, it seemed that in order to prevent encountering a group of monks to rob and kill, or if they were unlucky enough to encounter a fourth- or sixth-level demon beast, they still couldn't go alone.
At this time, in the hall, some people entered together in a group, these were mainly from the Immortal Cultivation Sect or the family group, and a few were casual cultivators who knew each other. There are also some people who come in alone, and they are in temporary groups in the hall.
During the Qi refining period, some of them occasionally obtained immortal fate like Wang Xian and practiced alone, and some of them were not allowed to leave or be driven away by the sect or family.
Everyone has not been debuting for a long time, and there are few monks they know, so for this mission, it is obvious that many casual cultivation teams are forming teams, looking for people to talk to and pull people's heads everywhere, it seems that everyone thinks the same as Wang Xian.
Just as Wang Xian was looking around, a nearby person came from the three-person team staring at Wang Xian.
This person is a purple-faced and green-robed man, with a Chinese character face, a nose and a wide mouth, a full beard, a tall man, striding in a tiger's wind, a few steps around the crowd and walking in front of Wang Xian, Wang Xian also smiled and took a step.
The big man clasped his fists and saluted, and said loudly: "This Taoist friend is invited, and I am at the mercy of the person, and it is the loose cultivation of Yongcheng." I don't know if you are going to Beibi Mountain, and if there is anyone else going with you?"
Wang Xian used his divine sense to detect that the other party was in the middle stage of qi refining, and he hugged his fists and saluted: "My person Wang Xian, I am going to Beibi Mountain, and I haven't found anyone who has traveled with him, if Brother Dao is interested, please don't hesitate to give advice." ”
Ren Xing said with a smile: "I and the other two Daoists are planning to find all four of them and go together, I see that Daoist friends are arrogant, if Daoyou don't think we are presumptuous, how about inviting Daoists to join us?"
"I don't dare to ask for ears," Wang Xian nodded and smiled.
"Okay, please" Ren Xing laughed, made a gesture to the two of them, and strode forward, Wang followed first.
I saw two monks, a man and a woman, standing not far away, and Wang Xian looked at them as he walked.
The man was a middle-aged man of medium height, with a white face and a green robe, thin and delicate, holding a folding fan in his hand and shaking it gently, squinting his eyes and looking at Wang Xian.
The other woman was young, looking to be in her early twenties, with a silver and green dress, a beautiful face, but her face was cold, and her big eyes glanced at Wang Xian curiously, so she didn't look any more, and stood there quietly.
Wang first saw that these two people were also cultivators in the early stage of Qi refining.
After some introductions by Ren Xing and several greetings from the four of them, Wang Xian learned that it turned out that these three scattered cultivators had teamed up with another person three years ago, and they did not find the moon velvet flower in the mountains, but hunted two third-level demon beasts, and the four of them divided the demon pill and animal bones, which was not worth the trip.
The four of them had already made an appointment to go looking for the moontail flower again this year, but not long ago, the three of them heard that another person was robbed and killed by an unknown monk when he was doing a bounty mission last year.
Speaking of this, Ren Xing and the three of them couldn't help but sigh for a while. However, the path of cultivating truth was originally against the sky, and every step was full of murderous intent, and the three of them could handle it calmly.
The four of them handed over the spirit stone, received the task jade slip, got on the manned beast vehicle of the Qiandan Sect, and rushed to the north of the mountain. This beast cart can carry seven or eight people, just enough for two teams of monks to go, and the beast man also has a cultivation of the first level of qi refining.
The cart is pulled by a unicorn horse, with a snow-white body and a tail like a unicorn tail. The unicorn is a kind of third-level demon beast that is more common in Beibi Mountain, and it is estimated that it was tamed and washed its wisdom and was made by people.
