Five Immortal Sects

Chapter 1221: Assessment tasks (I)

Views:

These elite young monks in the clan are also descendants of several other elders. Among them are not only descendants of the fourth and fifth elders, but also descendants of the third and sixth elders.

However, the weakest forces here should be the two descendants of the Sixth Elder, and the Sixth Elder has been missing for a long time.

"Oh, I was ordered by the Second Elder to hurry up and find a batch of 'Gray Cloud Eagles'. The battle a month ago almost killed and wounded all of them.

In the subsequent month's offensive, the soldiers who fired the 'Bone Breaker' suffered the most casualties on our side. Large numbers of 'Wind Goose Beasts' had almost no opponents to stop them. They flew straight in from the air and posed the greatest threat.

Therefore, we need to refine another batch of 'Gray Cloud Sculptures' as soon as possible.

I just came out of the breeding garden. The oldest 'Grey Cloud Eagles' there are only about ten years old. Most of them are cubs. Alas!"

Having said this, a look of heartache appeared on A Yuan's handsome face. The "Grey Cloud Eagle" was raised, bred and trained by their "King of Daliang" lineage, but now almost all of its resources have been emptied.

It doesn't mean that there are no flying monsters except the "Gray Cloud Eagle", but the "Gray Cloud Eagle" is of Yin nature and is fearless of death. It has been proven over countless years that it is the best monster to deal with the "Wind Goose Beast".

The rest of the flying monster beasts would tremble with fear upon seeing the "Wind Goose Beast", and their combat power would be reduced by half before they even started fighting.

Therefore, unless the other mid-to-high level flying monsters are used to suppress the low-level "Wind Goose Beast", there are not so many mid-to-high level monsters.

In the past month, the front has actually been using a lot of the cultivators' mid- to high-level flying spirit pets. The "Wind Goose Beasts" are not stupid. If you send out a second or third level monster, they will also send out a second or third level monster this month.

This resulted in heavy casualties among many of the mid- and high-level flying monsters that the Fengli monks had trained themselves.

"Oh, then you should report this matter to the Second Elder and the others as soon as possible. However, I think it would be best to send our tribesmen out to look for or purchase a batch of adult 'Gray Cloud Eagles' from other places. This is the fastest way to solve the problem."

Gong Chenying thought about it and gave his own suggestion.

"I was thinking the same thing. Of course, buying them is the fastest way. I can put them into battle after refining them. But the Second Elder wanted to confirm the number of Gray Cloud Eagles on the side of the Great Liang King, so I went to check again.

By the way, after I report to the Second Elder, I will suggest going out to see if we can buy the 'Gray Cloud Sculpture'. Why not Ah Ying..."

"I am still injured, and I have other things to do. If you go out, Yuan, it would be best to select a few good fighters from the tribe to go with you to ensure that nothing goes wrong."

Just when A Yuan finished speaking, he suddenly looked at Gong Chenying with hope on his face, but Gong Chenying immediately interrupted his thoughts.

At the same time, she gave another suggestion. It is not so easy to go out and buy elixirs and monsters. The nearest market is more than 70,000 miles away.

At that time, some small towns nearby had already moved away due to the brutal battle between the Tianli tribe and the wind beasts for more than ten years. As the Tianli tribe continued to retreat and the wind beasts outside were rampant, several small towns had already moved away.

If the Tianli cultivators wanted to go out, the three tribes of wind beasts would definitely try to stop them. There were only a few Nascent Soul cultivators, so both sides just looked at each other.

The Foundation Establishment cultivators wanted to cross an area of more than 70,000 miles. Not to mention whether they could make it, just based on their flying speed, it is unknown how much time it would take to go back and forth.

Of course, Jindan cultivators are more suitable for this kind of thing, but it would definitely be safer if multiple Jindan cultivators go out together.

Seeing Gong Chenying's refusal, A Yuan's eyes showed disappointment. Just when he was about to say something, Gong Chenying nodded to him.

"I have some important matters to attend to. Please report the situation to the Second Elder as soon as possible. The war situation is getting intense at the front and we cannot delay any longer."

After saying this, Gong Chenying flew away without giving the other party time to speak.

Looking at the beautiful and heroic figure in blue clothes and arrow-shaped sleeves, A Yuan's eyes flashed with a hint of heat, but he could only fly in another direction immediately.

Of course, all of their tribesmen saw Li Yan's arrival, and they also saw how powerful Li Yan was.

Therefore, these young cultivators of the Tianli tribe all thought that Li Yan was Aying's elder, and no one knew that he was actually Gong Chenying's junior brother.

They all thought that the other party might have come here for training, or might have received a letter from Gong Chenying asking for help, so he rushed over.

The second elder also did not know the specific details of Li Yan. Even though he knew Li Yan's identity as "King Qing'a", he was still weighing whether to reveal this news.

He knew that once the news of the appearance of "King Qing'a" in the clan was leaked, it would inevitably bring trouble to Li Yan.

But now, with a cultivator as powerful as Li Yan, the Tianli tribe may still need his help. So the second elder is still observing Li Yan in secret to determine what decision he can make.

However, during this month, Li Yan did not go out at all and stayed in the attic all day long. Gong Chenying also stayed in seclusion to recover from his injuries. This made the Second Elder unable to make any further judgments for a while...

In a hanging tower in the forest, the great elder looked at Gong Chenying who had a calm expression in front of him.

"He really has practiced the Qiongqi Purgatory Technique, and has far surpassed the highest level limit of the assessment. This matter is a bit difficult to deal with."

The Great Elder also showed an embarrassment on his face, even though Gong Chenying was his descendant and they had guessed it in advance.

But when it was really confirmed that Li Yan was practicing the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique", which actually involved the supreme treasure of the Tianli clan, the great elder couldn't help but weigh it again and again in his mind.

He didn't know Li Yan too well. It was Li Yan who caused the Tianli tribe to be in danger last time. However, the other party also came to ask for the "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique", which meant they had other purposes.

"Great Elder, I don't think it's difficult. First of all, I have to choose a Taoist partner. As long as my Taoist partner is not a problem and does not harm the Tianli tribe, it's fine.

Secondly, Li Yan killed a fourth-level wind beast and severely injured another fourth-level wind beast in the last battle.

To be frank, if he hadn't taken action, I would have died. How many people of the Tianli tribe would have survived a month ago? I believe the elders are very clear;

Thirdly, Li Yan is the ancestor of the Wuliang Sect. Perhaps after crossing over to this place, his influence on this place is almost negligible, but his preferences can definitely influence other Nascent Soul cultivators in the Wuliang Sect.

Then who can guarantee that we will not have any intersection with those Nascent Soul cultivators from now on?"

Gong Chenying slowly spoke out what she wanted to say. After hearing it, the Great Elder's eyes flickered a few times with a strange look passing through them.

"Did you just say that he was going to look for Shanhe and the other two?"

"Father is my only blood relative in this world. Li Yan knows this!"

Gong Chenying did not give a direct answer, but only said this.

"Although I think Li Yan's cultivation is more than what he showed in that battle, there is no doubt that he is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. He will also take you with him. If anything happens to you..."

"Great Elder, what I want to make clear is that he was going to go alone, but I asked him to go with me. Although he and I have not officially formed a Taoist partnership, he was able to come to the Wind God Continent because of me. Moreover, he went to save my father, and whether he succeeded or not, I had to stay by his side. Did the Great Elder want to see me commit suicide in the tribe after waiting for bad news?"

Gong Chenying still had a calm expression, and there wasn't much emotion on her cold and beautiful face, but anyone could hear her determination.

The great elder sighed in his heart when he heard this. Regardless of whether they were men or women, the vast majority of the Tianli people would rather break than bend, especially some women, whose temperaments were even more strong-willed than men and who were extremely affectionate.

The meaning of the belly button ring is loyalty. Since ancient times, there have been many Tianli women who committed suicide to follow their husbands, so suicide is not an extreme thing for the Tianli people.

Of course, there are also many women who, after the death of their Taoist partners, never remarry and choose to pursue immortality wholeheartedly, just like the high priest of this generation. With such a mentality, he finally succeeded in becoming a god.

“Well, since you are here to testify, no matter whether he can rescue Shanhe and the Sixth Elder, as long as he truly helps, I will approve of him.

I think you have already explained to him about the 'Qiongqi Purgatory Technique' and 'King Qing'. The last six levels of the technique will be tested one by one.

I can make a plan first. If Li Yan can bring back accurate information about Shanhe and the others, I can teach him the fourth level of the skills.

If Shanhe and the other two can be rescued, the clan can make an exception and teach the fifth and sixth levels.

But this matter will require the consent of the Second and Third Elders. The Third Elder should not have any objection, and I will also try my best to get the Second Elder's approval. What do you think?"

The Great Elder also knew Gong Chenying's character, and he probably wouldn't be able to persuade her. What's more, she was going to go find her father, and this matter had been delayed for too long. Even the Great Elder felt sorry for Gong Chenying.

In the final analysis, the conditions proposed by Li Yan were too tempting, and Gong Chenying was his direct bloodline. Gong Chenying certainly would not betray Gong Shanhe and help Li Yan with a fake rescue.

Even if we take a step back, as long as Li Yan can bring back accurate information about Gong Shanhe's current situation, they may be able to work out a specific rescue plan for the next step.

"Then... if one of my father and the Sixth Elder has already met with an accident, to which level will the technique be passed on?"

Gong Chenying keenly grasped the problem in the elder's words, which was that he required Li Yan to bring back two people before he would teach them the fifth and sixth levels of skills.

In other words, it is still an assessment at each level. Rescuing one person is considered completing an assessment. But what if one of them has already been in trouble when Li Yan and she arrive

The Great Elder fell into deep thought for a long time.

“Well, as you said before, Li Yan has done a favor to our clan in the last battle, so as long as he rescues one person, our clan will teach him the fifth and sixth levels of martial arts.

If it is not completed, then the subsequent training methods can only be changed to other assessment methods. This is the biggest concession that the clan can make."

The Great Elder's mind was racing. After Li Yan became "King Qing'a", although he obtained the subsequent skills of "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique", he could only get to the sixth level at most.

Without the extraordinary merit, the last three levels of skills can never be achieved. The last three levels of skills are the essence and core of "Qiongqi Purgatory Technique".

Moreover, once Li Yan obtained the identity of "King Qing'a", he would be tied to the chariot of the Tianli tribe. Now that the high-end combat power of the Tianli tribe is already insufficient, the great elder had to consider more and made the biggest concession.

Gong Chenying nodded. She had done her best to get such a reply from the Great Elder. The supreme treasure of the Tianli tribe was not so easy to obtain.

To put it bluntly, it might mean the extermination of the clan, and people in the clan might not be willing to reveal the skills to others. All this is based on the rules of "King Qing'a".

"Then I hope the Great Elder can make a final decision according to what he just said!"

“I will try my best. After all, this is the only chance to rescue Shanhe and the others. I will ask the second and third elders to come over.

With the third elder and I here, if the second elder makes any unreasonable suggestions, we will have no choice but to give him no face. You go and inform Li Yan.

Let's talk about these things with him again, but you have to make it clear that this is just my plan. In one hour, we will gather at the Tianli Palace!"

The Great Elder nodded. After all, his surname was also Gong, and this matter had troubled him for too long.

"Damn Yan San!"

Thinking that he could not leave the Tianli tribe, otherwise Gong Shanhe and the Sixth Elder would have a greater chance of escaping, the Great Elder could not help but curse the "Wind Goose Beast" in his heart.

… …

Just over half an hour later, five people had gathered in the "Tianli Palace". Gong Chenying, as the person involved, still appeared in the "Tianli Palace" at the level of a Jindan cultivator.

"Why did you call me here so urgently?"

The second elder arrived last. After entering the hall, he glanced at a few people, politely clasped his fists towards Li Yan, and then sat down on the chair.

His thoughts raced through his mind, and when he saw Li Yan and Gong Chenying were both here, he actually already had some guesses in his mind.

The third elder leaned coquettishly in his chair, lazily stretching his slender figure that was no less slender than Gong Chenying's.

A pair of beautiful eyes kept scanning Li Yan and Gong Chenying. Since her arrival, she had not spoken a word except for secretly communicating a few words with the Great Elder.

Li Yan felt a little uncomfortable when being glanced at by the Third Elder. He frowned and looked over, only to see the other party nodding at him with a smile.

He was speechless for a moment. He couldn't get angry with the other person's attitude, especially now that Li Yan already knew that the third elder was on Gong Chenying and the others' side.

"This person is good at both magic and body, and the witchcraft he is particularly good at is very unpredictable. He even knows the legendary divination technique. We should be careful!"

Li Yan has always been extremely cautious in areas that he is not good at.

"Please ask the Second Elder to come over. I want to talk about Fellow Daoist Li's 'King Qing'.

First of all, everyone witnessed Brother Li’s last battle. Not only did he save our clan from danger that day, but he also killed one and injured another of the other side’s high-level wind beasts.

So in this regard, and with Ah Ying's personal confirmation, I believe he is qualified to be included in the ranks of the 'Qing Ah King' of our clan."

Seeing that everyone was present, the Great Elder spoke directly, but before he spoke, he put a hat on Li Yan to suppress him.

As he spoke, his eyes turned to the Second Elder.
