Chapter 1221 Zuo Fufeng Accepts the Mission
Back at his own training ground, Xu Changshou continued his cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, another fifty years had passed, and Xu Changshou opened his eyes.
At this moment, he had used up all thirty Void Spirit Pills he had on him.
Take another look at the identity token; it only has two merit points.
Two merit points are only enough for ten years of cultivation, so Xu Changshou didn't even bother to exchange them for Void Spirit Pills.
Next, it's time to accept the mission.
A thoughtful look flashed in Xu Changshou's eyes.
Ultimately, merits are earned through one's own efforts; to gain merits, one must undertake sect missions.
Previously, when he was in the mid-stage of the Void Refinement realm, Xu Changshou had thought about taking on missions, but at that time, his strength was insufficient and the risks of taking on missions were too great.
The last time I went with Yang Yanjing and others to catch the three-legged thunder frog was a personal mission of Venerable Guye, not a sect mission.
There are only two types of true sect missions: internal missions and external missions.
Internal tasks generally involve working for an elder in a sect, such as guarding the dojo, feeding demon cultivators, managing the spirit herb garden, and so on.
This type of task is safe and the commission is relatively low.
Generally speaking, a century's worth of commission will not exceed three merit points.
Xu Changshou needs a lot of merit points, so internal missions are obviously not suitable for him.
Then I'll have to take on an outing mission.
There are two types of missions: ordinary missions, which are not very dangerous but have lower pay.
The second type is dangerous missions, which require the person accepting the mission to risk their life. These missions offer the highest commissions.
Xu Changshou planned to take on this dangerous mission.
There was nothing he could do about it; sect merits were too hard to earn. If he didn't take on dangerous missions, he didn't know when he would be able to accumulate two hundred merits.
Of course, Xu Changshou now has a certain confidence in his own strength. As long as he doesn't encounter a cultivator at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement stage who knows Heaven-level spells, he can handle most cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement stage.
Throughout the world, there are only a handful of cultivators who can perform Heaven-level spells, and even if there are, they would not be his targets.
Therefore, Xu Changshou was quite confident in undertaking these dangerous missions.
With this thought in mind, Xu Changshou stood up and flew towards Zuofu Peak.
The mission hall of the Donghua Immortal Sect is located on Zuofu Peak.
The steward in charge of the mission hall is named Yan Tianlu, a veteran cultivator at the Void Refinement stage.
Xu Changshou entered the mission hall, where several people were queuing up to receive missions. Yan Tianlu was the one in charge of issuing missions behind the counter.
Xu Changshou glanced at Yan Tianlu, whose gray hair was neatly combed, making him a meticulous person at first glance.
Xu Changshou glanced at the wall behind Yan Tianlu, which was covered with densely packed jade slips containing mission instructions.
All the task jade slips are divided into three colors: blue, green, and red.
Xu Changshou had heard that the sect's mission jade slips were divided into three colors.
Blue indicates internal tasks.
Green and red both represent field missions.
Green represents ordinary missions, while red represents dangerous missions.
Soon, the people in front of him had received their tasks, and it was Xu Changshou's turn.
"Disciple Xu Changshou greets Uncle Yan!" Xu Changshou bowed respectfully.
Glancing at Xu Changshou, Yan Tianlu asked, "What mission are you taking?"
"Disciple accepts dangerous mission."
"Ok?"
Looking at Xu Changshou's cultivation level again, Yan Tianlu couldn't help but frown. He was only at the late stage of the Void Refinement realm, yet he dared to accept dangerous missions outside. He was quite bold.
"Cough cough!"
Yan Tianlu coughed, tapped the table, and said, "Xu Changshou, I advise you to think it over carefully. Although dangerous missions offer high rewards, they can cost you your life. It would be best to wait until you break through to the Great Perfection of the Void Refinement Realm before taking on dangerous missions."
"Thank you very much, Uncle Yan!"
Xu Changshou cupped his hands and said solemnly, "Uncle Yan's advice is correct, but cultivation is like rowing against the current; if you don't advance, you fall behind. This disciple urgently needs merit, and for this, I am willing to risk my life."
"Ok!"
Yan Tianlu nodded and stopped trying to persuade Xu Changshou. After all, there were plenty of people in the late stage of the Void Refinement realm who were tasked with dangerous missions.
"The red ones are dangerous missions. You can choose one yourself. Let me know when you've made your choice."
"Yes!"
Xu Changshou released his divine sense to examine the red mission jade slips.
The mission to catch the criminal.
Mission objective: Hunt down the notorious bandit Li Huo, Xie Tianyi.
Mission destination: Hulucheng, Qingzhou.
Reward: Blackjack Merit Points.
……
Capture mission.
Mission objective: Capture the sect traitor Situ Xuan alive.
Mission destination: Unknown.
Reward: 22 merit points.
Upon seeing this task, Xu Changshou was stunned for a moment. He then glanced at Situ Xuan's detailed information. Indeed, it was the Situ Xuan he knew.
He never imagined that Situ Xuan would become a traitor to the sect.
Xu Changshou only knew that after Situ Xuan was driven away from Wushan, he was sent back to Zuofu Peak. As for how he became a traitor to the sect, Xu Changshou had no idea.
Upon seeing this task, Xu Changshou was intrigued.
He knew Situ Xuan's strength inside and out, and with his own strength, capturing Situ Xuan alive would be a piece of cake.
The problem is that the destination of this mission is unknown, meaning we don't know where Situ Xuan went.
In the vast Sangyu Immortal Realm, finding a person is like finding a needle in a haystack.
Xu Changshou shook his head and continued looking at the mission.
Exploration mission.
Mission objective: To conduct marine exploration for fire crystal steel ore.
Mission destination: The Chaotic Sea.
Task reward: 23 merit points.
Xu Changshou shook his head; this task wouldn't work either.
Tasks such as prospecting for minerals require professionals; if you don't have experience, going there will only be a waste of time.
……
Hunting Mission: Deep Sea Monster Slayer.
……
Mission: Hunt down the ruthless bandit Zhang Xiyao.
……
……
Xu Changshou watched for a while and found that most of the dangerous missions involved chasing, killing, hunting, and capturing alive.
Nine out of ten missions are extremely dangerous.
However, the rewards for the tasks are very generous, with the commission for each task generally exceeding twenty merit points.
It's dangerous, but the rewards are excellent.
Of course, don't even think about getting fifty merit points for tasks like catching the three-legged thunder frog here.
Back then, it wasn't convenient to post the mission from Venerable Guye in the sect's mission hall. You have to understand how rare the Three-Legged Thunder Frog is. If the mission had been posted in the sect, it's uncertain who would have gotten the Three-Legged Thunder Frog in the end.
Therefore, Guye found some reliable people among Honglian's disciples and gave them a lot of merit points, which was equivalent to giving Honglian's disciples a benefit.
That kind of mission will never appear in the Mission Hall.
……
Capture mission.
Mission objective: Capture the sect traitor Lin Gengxian alive.
Mission destination: Mu Dong Divine City.
Task reward: 29 merit points.
Suddenly, a task caught Xu Changshou's attention.
The destination of this mission was actually in Mu Dong Divine City, his hometown.
Speaking of which, it's been over a thousand years since I've been home, so it's time to go back and visit Xiu Fan.
"That's it!"
