Chapter 220 Demon Exorcism Mission
Soon, Shen Gongtu reported the mission. The information written by Xu Changshou was incomplete and did not include the date, so Shen Gongtu wrote the date.
After finishing, he handed the jade slip to Xu Changshou and said, "Go to the back hall and post your task. Remember, post it in the miscellaneous items column in the purchase area. The fragments of thousand-year-old spiritual wood are considered miscellaneous items. If you post it in the wrong area, I can't guarantee that you can buy what you want."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Shen Gong, for the reminder."
"Go!"
Shen Gongtu waved his hand, and Xu Changshou took the jade slip and walked towards the back hall.
When we arrived at the back hall, there were more people. There were more than a dozen foundation-building monks in the entire hall checking jade slips. They were all there to accept tasks.
Xu Changshou looked around and saw that all four walls of the rear hall were covered with jade slips.
There are three major areas on the four walls. On the left and right walls, there are signs for buying and selling respectively.
There are mission signs written on the front and back walls.
Xu Changshou took a quick look and saw that the wall where the tasks were written was divided into many columns.
Like murderer-hunting missions, herbal medicine-collecting missions, monster-hunting missions, group missions, exploration missions...
There are dozens of different kinds of tasks.
After looking around, Xu Changshou walked towards the wall with the "Want to Buy" sign. This wall also had its own columns, such as: flying swords, magic tools, minerals, metal materials, elixirs, medicinal materials, jade, thousand-year-old spiritual wood...
Xu Changshou looked for a long time before he found the miscellaneous column in a corner.
Xu Changshou swept his spiritual sense across several jade slips, and some information immediately entered his mind.
Wanted: Ten blood jade beads, price fifty spirit stones.
Wanted: A rosin wood box...
Wanted: Waste Pills...
Wanted: Scrapped magical instruments...
Wanted: 10 deep sea abalone, fresh...
After roughly looking at dozens of jade slips, Xu Changshou shook his head slightly. No wonder it was a column for miscellaneous items, there was not a single serious thing.
Xu Changshou even saw many unique and ingenious items used in purchasing houses.
Xu Changshou casually hung his jade slip in a conspicuous place.
At the same time, each branch of the Immortal Cultivation Union also had a similar jade slip asking for the purchase of scrap wood hung in its respective miscellaneous items column.
The information of the headquarters and branches of the Xiuxian Guild is synchronized.
After posting his own task, Xu Changshou did not leave, but stayed here to look at the tasks posted by others.
There are all kinds of tasks, all strange and bizarre. Before coming here, Xu Changshou didn’t know that many things can be done without any effort as long as you have money.
Except killing.
In the Dongyu Immortal Cultivation World, 90% of the practitioners are from the five major immortal sects, so missions to kill people cannot be issued in the Immortal Cultivation Union.
Of course, every immortal sect has a place to post tasks. Tasks to kill people can be posted in one's own sect, but there is a prerequisite: tasks to hunt down one's own disciples cannot be posted.
In addition to the tasks that were published, the tasks of purchasing things also dazzled Xu Changshou.
Before coming here, Xu Changshou didn't even know that there were so many strange and bizarre things in the world of immortal cultivation.
Sadly, Xu Changshou looked through all the sales tasks and found no special column for selling thousand-year-old spiritual wood.
There is a special column for purchasing thousand-year-old spiritual wood, with a few jade slips hanging sparsely on it.
This shows that among ordinary cultivators, thousand-year-old spiritual wood is in short supply.
Xu Changshou was glad that he did not directly issue the task of purchasing the thousand-year-old spiritual wood. Even if he had, it might not be possible to buy it.
"By the way, do you want to take a mission?"
Suddenly, such a thought flashed through Xu Changshou's mind.
It is 30,000 miles from Wanxian Market to Pingyang Market. Xu Changshou wants to take on a task on the way back.
Xu Changshou was a little unwilling to accept the fact that he had hundreds of spirit stones robbed from him in the Immortal Cultivation Association. He wanted to take on a task to see if he could earn back the lost spirit stones.
Of course, the prerequisite for him to accept the mission is that, first, it cannot be too dangerous.
Xu Changshou is not short of money, so there is no need for him to do dangerous tasks to make money.
Second, Xu Changshou was going back to the sect, and he took on a task on the way and completed it without wasting time.
There are so many tasks in Xiuxian Guild, there will definitely be one that suits you.
Thinking of this, Xu Changshou began to screen the task jade slips.
Escort mission: Escort the Zhou family to collect herbs, destination is Dacang Mountain.
This won’t work, Mount Okura is not on the way.
Monster-slaying mission: Go to the Seven Star Pond and kill the water monster in the pond.
This is on the way, but it won’t work. I don’t know how powerful the water monster is, and the risk is too great.
Escort mission: Go to the Mechanical City and escort Mohist disciples.
No, this one is not on the way either.
……
Xu Changshou looked at dozens of missions and was not satisfied with any of them. They were either too far, too dangerous, or too hard.
At this moment, Xu Changshou's attention was suddenly attracted by the information on one of the jade slips:
Demon-killing mission: Go to Cangzhou and help Taishu's family kill the evil demon, and you will be rewarded with a thousand-year-old water willow tree stump.
The stump of a thousand-year-old water willow, a good thing.
Seeing this reward, Xu Changshou couldn't help but be surprised. He quickly cheered up and looked at the task seriously.
This is a task issued by a family of immortal cultivators named Taishu. Recently, a monster has been targeting the Taishu family, resulting in the deaths of many disciples in the family.
Therefore, the Taishu family issued this demon-eliminating mission, calling on fellow Taoists from all sides to help the Taishu family eliminate demons and defend the Dao.
This is a group mission and many people can take it. However, the people of Taishu's family promised that whoever helps them eliminate the evil spirit will get the thousand-year-old water willow wooden stake.
This immortal cultivation family surnamed Taishu is a vassal family of the Hehuan Sect. There are many disciples in the sect who are practicing in the Hehuan Sect.
Their family lives not far from Pingyang Market.
Seeing this message, Xu Changshou couldn't help but frown.
He had many dealings with people from the Hehuan Sect. Perhaps because they practiced dual cultivation techniques, the people from the Hehuan Sect were very evil, and Xu Changshou didn't like them very much.
Looking further down, there is another picture of a wooden stump. From this picture you can see that this is a complete tree stump with roots underneath.
A tree stump this big must weigh at least 500 kilograms.
However, the value is not that great because they are just tree roots. It would be good enough to refine two or three flying swords.
If it were in Xu Changshou's hands, it would be useful. You know, five hundred kilograms of thousand-year-old spiritual wood can make five thousand talismans.
This one wooden stake would be enough for him to complete eight or nine years of work.
Xu Changshou was moved.
If he could get this wooden stake, he could focus all his attention on cultivation for the next ten years.
In ten years, two drops of foundation-building liquid can be condensed, which means that within ten years, one can enter the middle stage of foundation-building.
The temptation is too great.
It is true that whoever helps the Taishu family get rid of the evil spirit will receive a reward. Xu Changshou may not be able to get rid of the evil spirit, but even if he cannot get rid of the evil spirit, he can buy the thousand-year-old water willow stakes from the person who gets rid of the evil spirit.
Do you want to pick it up?
Although his heart was moved, Xu Changshou fell into deep thought...
He found two loopholes in this mission.
