The two of them stood on the flying spiritual device, and Lin Daqiao gave Li Yan a detailed introduction. This mission hall was indeed located in the dense bamboo forest on the back mountain, just as Li Yan had guessed before.
There are three kinds of tasks that Xiaozhufeng can accept: watering spiritual plants, raising monsters, and cooking for monsters. Li Yan can understand the first two, but he finds the last one strange.
In addition to eating the flesh and blood of other monsters and some spiritual plants, some monsters are more special and require large amounts of spiritual food for nourishment.
If this type of monster grew naturally, it would have to look for food suitable for its physique every day in order to survive.
But if they are raised artificially, then the food they need must be refined or cooked separately, and this kind of food must contain spiritual energy to ensure that these monsters can grow normally.
As they were talking, they had already arrived at the bamboo forest at the back of the mountain. The two of them landed on the ground and collected their spiritual weapons. Lin Daqiao walked towards a small path as if he was familiar with the route. Seeing this, Li Yan opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, and finally asked.
"Seventh Senior Brother, there are many paths in the bamboo forest. The ones with stone tablets should be the places to go to the Mission Hall to complete the missions.
There are quite a few paths like this, but these stone tablets have no words or pictures, so it is inevitable that new disciples will make mistakes. Can't they just make a mark or something?"
This question has been on his mind for several years, and he has never had an answer. Today, he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"It seems that Junior Brother has also walked these paths, otherwise he wouldn't know these. You mean markings? There are markings..."
After hearing Li Yan's question, Lin Daqiao turned around and looked at Li Yan strangely, thinking.
"You said you didn't know about the Mission Hall, and I brought you here, but you were able to mention the stone tablet, which seemed like something you should know. In the end, why did you look confused again? Who explained this to me, Junior Brother, and didn't explain it clearly?"
How could he know that although Li Yan often came to the back mountain, he had never entered the path with the stone tablet since Gong Chenying told him that.
Lin Daqiao looked toward the top of the mountain and spoke in a very low voice.
"There are four such paths here. I think you know that they correspond to three mission sites and mission halls. However, the small stone sign at the intersection was separated by Master Tianbei..."
At this point, his voice lowered a little.
"Lord Tianbei went up from here. There is a huge stone tablet on the square about fifty miles away. It was originally a magic weapon that suppressed the entrance to the picking secret realm.
But after tens of thousands of years of being cleansed by the spiritual energy of Xiaozhu Peak, and coupled with the interactive changes of the rich spiritual energy from the secret realm during the month each time the channel was opened, the spirit of the instrument was slowly born inside it.
I heard that the spirit of the Heavenly Stele Artifact has now reached the terrifying level of the middle stage of the Golden Core Realm. However, we’d better not talk about him because he has a bad temper.
Our current location is also within his coverage area. If he hears us by accident, I guess you and I will be in trouble.
Also, Junior Brother, don’t go up to him out of curiosity. His temperament is too unpredictable. The consequences will be unpredictable…”
Having said this, Lin Daqiao looked up at the mountain again with some concern, and reminded Li Yan with some worry.
When Li Yan heard this, he was shocked at first. He never thought that the stone tablet that made him vomit blood and injured was actually a magic weapon, and it also had intelligence.
A piece of stone can also develop intelligence like a human. The world of immortal cultivation is truly full of wonders.
Another thing that surprised him was that the passage to the secret realm was right at Xiaozhu Peak. These things were not recorded in any books.
Then, Li Yan also smiled bitterly in his heart. He knew very well that the Heavenly Stele had a bad temper. It was really bad. He vomited blood several times before he could even see it clearly. He had to recuperate for several days before he recovered.
Seeing that Li Yan remained silent, Lin Daqiao was afraid that he didn't believe her, so she spoke again in a low voice.
"Junior brother, this is true. The Heavenly Stele has a strange temper. Originally, there were four stone tablets with inscriptions on the four roads here. But since the Heavenly Stele gained intelligence, it felt that there should be no other stone tablets here, and only small pieces of stone could exist.
So he used his magical powers to destroy the four stone tablets here and scattered four small flat stones here. These four small flat stones were later called stone tablets. This shows that he had a very different personality.
However, the logo is still there, you just don’t know it, it’s the crack on it.
The one with one crack is the mission hall, the one with two cracks is the spirit plant garden, the one with three cracks is the spirit food garden, and the one with four cracks is the spirit object garden. When you enter the mission hall later, if you see a mission with two on the mission list, it means the mission is for the spirit plant garden, and three of course corresponds to the spirit food garden..."
Li Yan was stunned after hearing this. The symbol turned out to be a crack. How overbearing was this heavenly monument? Not only did it not allow other stone tablets to exist, it also caused cracks on its body. It seemed that he had to stay away from this heavenly monument in the future.
If you accidentally provoke it, with its terrifying cultivation level, even if you are in the bamboo courtyard, only a few dozen miles away from it, it will pinch you as if it's a piece of cake, and it will also cause several cracks on your body. That would be terrible.
Seeing Li Yan's face change several times, Lin Daqiao knew that he believed it, so he straightened his back and spoke loudly.
"Let's go, Junior Brother, it's just ahead!"
They had reached a small intersection. Li Yan looked carefully at the stone tablet, which was about one foot wide. There was indeed a crack on it, but it looked like it was formed naturally. He couldn't help but rub his nose.
On the small path, we met a few more monks. They should be the disciples from other peaks who came to take over their tasks.
When they saw the two of them again, they seemed to be very familiar with Lin Daqiao. They greeted her one after another and just smiled and nodded to Li Yan.
Li Yan has been staying in Xiaozhu Peak for the past few years and practicing diligently. Unlike Lin Daqiao, who not only wanders around Xiaozhu Peak, but also often visits other peaks and has many acquaintances there.
Soon, the two of them reached the end of the path. Just like the end of the path where Li Yan saw Leng Yan's sixth senior sister last time, there was also a dense bamboo forest. However, there were obviously many fewer people here. From time to time, one or more people would flash out in the twisting ripples of the bamboo forest. After Lin Daqiao glanced at Li Yan's waist, he didn't say anything and raised his legs to hit the bamboo forest.
Ripples formed, and then he disappeared into the bamboo forest.
Li Yan's face turned strange when he saw this, but he followed suit and stepped into the bamboo forest. However, the moment he walked into the jungle, his eyes blurred and he seemed to have come to a colorful space.
He felt the token on his waist tremble slightly, and he looked down hurriedly, just in time to see a ray of light rolling back from the fog, and then the token returned to normal.
The next moment, his eyes lit up and Li Yan appeared in an open space. In front of him stood a huge bamboo house in the middle. Seventh Senior Brother was standing at the gate in front of the bamboo house, looking at him with a smile on his face.
At this time, Li Yan certainly knew how to enter the mission hall. It turned out that he entered through a token.
In this way, if you are not a disciple of the sect, you will not be able to enter. The sect token is signed by dripping blood, so even if it is obtained by someone else, it cannot be used. This ensures that the token cannot be stolen.
There seemed to be quite a few people here at the moment. In just a short while, more than a dozen people came in and out. Li Yan took a few quick steps and came to the steps in front of the bamboo house, standing with Lin Daqiao.
"Junior brother, you can enter the other three paths in the same way!
Similarly, except for the mission hall on Laojun Peak, if you want to go to the other three small mission halls, you can enter in the same way.
However, there is one thing to note here. Your and my tokens can freely enter the three mission sites of our peak's spiritual plant garden, spiritual food garden, and spiritual object garden, while the tokens of disciples from other peaks can only enter this mission hall.
They can only enter the corresponding mission site after receiving the corresponding mission of their own peak. Similarly, their tokens can also freely enter and exit the mission sites of their own peaks. "
After hearing this, Li Yan of course understood the meaning. Simply put, his mountain token had priority.
When the two of them walked into the bamboo house, Li Yan saw that the space of the mission hall was really large, about seventy or eighty feet, and was divided into two areas, one was the place to receive tasks, and the other was the place to hand in tasks.
The two of them did not rush forward. Lin Daqiao kept explaining to Li Yan in a low voice, and Li Yan kept observing according to what Senior Brother Seven said. After a while, he figured out the situation here.
There is a huge piece of white jade about thirty feet in the sky above the two areas of the Mission Hall. Rows of flashing golden characters are scrolling on it, corresponding to the published task lists and the tasks that have been handed in.
The difference is that the huge white jade for publishing tasks is divided into three small blocks, each of which corresponds to a different type of content. If there is too much content, the tasks in the small blocks will scroll so that the disciples can understand the tasks in detail.
And on the huge white jade for submitting tasks, only the names of the last 100 tasks just submitted were displayed, nothing else.
In addition to being divided into categories, tasks on the huge white jade board that publishes tasks are also divided into single-player tasks and multiplayer tasks.
Once a single-player mission is claimed by someone, the gold lettering will turn gray and it can no longer be claimed. However, this kind of mission is not something you can just do alone.
Once a solo mission is accepted, if it cannot be completed, the person who accepts the mission must pay compensation according to the price. Some missions even require several times the compensation.
For multiplayer tasks, there is no such restriction and anyone can claim it.
There will be a constantly updated number behind the task to show how many people have accepted the task. This kind of task will be rewarded to whoever finishes it first, but the number of reward spirit stones is much lower than that of a single-person task.
The name of the person who accepts the task will not be displayed behind any task, which seems to be an attempt to protect the personal privacy of each disciple.
No matter who accepts or submits a task, they must enter the range of thirty feet below the white jade. This range is isolated by a formation and outsiders cannot see what is going on inside.
Once someone enters these two areas, they will be covered by a layer of white light. The white light flashes blindingly. Even if they are in the same formation, others cannot look directly at them and cannot tell who is who in the formation.
When accepting a task, one only needs to use spiritual consciousness to communicate the task on the white jade plate above. Disciples from the outer peaks will have two rays of light injected into them, one is the task mark, and the other is the temporary entry mark for the task site. Disciples from this peak will only have one task mark injected into them.
When submitting a task, one also uses spiritual consciousness to communicate the task on the white jade board. The outer peak disciples will have three rays of light shot towards the task. One is the task mark, one is the mark of confirmation of completion by the issuer, and the last one is the mark of reclaiming the temporary entry into the task site.
When the disciples of this peak complete their tasks, only two badges will be taken back.
Just like that, after a cup of tea, Li Yan finally understood the receipt and payment of tasks.
The same is true for the main mission hall of Laojun Peak, but I heard that the space there is six or seven times that of here, and the two pieces of white jade are each a hundred feet in size. It makes sense, with tens of thousands of cultivators in the sect, so the amount of tasks there is certainly huge.
After saying this, Lin Daqiao thought for a moment and gave another reminder.
"Junior brother, you can take on the tasks of watering spiritual plants and cooking for monsters, but as for raising monsters, you'd better not take it for now.
The monsters here are a little special. The reason is not convenient to tell now. This sect has a ban. Only those who accept the task will know, but they are also forbidden to talk about it after they come out. You will know some reasons in the future.
If you want to take on this kind of mission, you have to reach at least the tenth level of the Qi Condensation Stage before you can barely accept the mission."
After hearing this, Li Yan first nodded to Lin Daqiao, then looked up again and looked carefully at the white jade board for receiving the task.
He searched on the huge white jade plate and easily saw the column for raising monsters.
There are now a total of nine messages above, and each message is followed by a note, such as: Be careful when accepting below the tenth level of Qi Condensation, do not accept below the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, etc.
It seems that the monster raised by Xiaozhu Peak is quite strange.
