While the chief senior brother enjoys the treatment and rights that other disciples do not have, he must also undertake corresponding obligations.
For example, maintaining the honor of the school is one of the obligations.
For example, maintaining a fair and just attitude towards life is another obligation.
Furthermore, it is necessary to perform some special tasks.
Chen Zong received such a mission. A village with hundreds of people was slaughtered overnight. Everyone died in the same state, and their blood was dried up. This mission is available in all halls except Tianyao Hall and Xingyao Hall. , and some disciples accepted it, but in the end, no one completed it. None of the disciples who accepted this task came back. There are a total of more than 20 disciples, and many of them are ninth-level warriors in the Qi and Blood Realm.
In addition to Tianyaotang and Xingyaotang, the chief senior brothers of the other five halls are all given this task, and the five will work together to complete it.
The chief senior brother of Diyaotang is still Xiao Hongfu, the chief senior brother of Wuyaotang is Zhan Ying, and the chief senior brother of Bingyaotang is Yi Qianren. These three have been the chief senior brothers of the third hall for quite some time, and the new Daoyaotang will follow later. The Chief Senior Brother Zhou Dong and the new Jianyaotang Chief Senior Brother Chen Zong.
Of the five, Chen Zong's cultivation was at the peak of the eighth-level Qi and Blood Realm, and the other four were at the peak of the ninth-level Qi and Blood Realm, but in terms of strength, Chen Zong would not be inferior to them in the slightest.
"This time, the task may not be so easy, the five of us should cooperate wholeheartedly." Zhanying said.
"I hope no one will hold you back." Xiao Hongfu snorted coldly, glanced at Chen Zong, and said implyingly, but Chen Zong didn't seem to hear it, and just ignored it.
"I think everyone present is about the same strength. Although Chen Zong's cultivation is not at the ninth level of Qi and Blood Realm, he can defeat Bai Yushan, which is enough to show that his strength is not inferior to ours." Zhou Dong laughed.
Yi Qianren was very silent and didn't say a word, Xiao Hongfu snorted coldly and didn't say anything more.
In the battle between Chen Zong and Bai Yushan a few months ago, he saw with his own eyes that Chen Zong's strength made him very surprised and even afraid. Even if he did it himself, he might not be able to defeat Chen Zong. Said that it was just to give Chen Zong a bad look, but he didn't expect the other party to ignore it.
"Let's discuss this task first." Zhan Ying smiled, and the five of them started discussing and exchanging their opinions while riding on the red horse.
Along the way, Yi Qianren hardly spoke and remained silent. The weapon he used was also rather peculiar, a pair of ancient bronze maces, each section of which was like a miniature version of a tower.
Chen Zong also seldom spoke, and his understanding of this task was very limited.
Mainly Zhan Ying, Zhou Dong and Xiao Hongfu were expressing their opinions.
After some conversation, the clues were gradually straightened out.
According to the information description of the mission, the murderer may be a human or a monster, but it is more likely to be a human. Secondly, the murderer is either super powerful, or there is more than one murderer. It is inferred that the latter is more likely, because hundreds of people He died overnight, but the village did not cause any obvious damage.
Even a martial artist who practiced Jinjing couldn't kill hundreds of people in a short period of time. Furthermore, hundreds of villagers died with their blood dried up, but the wounds they left behind were different.
The third point is that the murderer's cultivation should not exceed the Qi and blood realm.
If it is beyond Qi and Blood Realm, Chen Zong and others will not be able to do this task. Naturally, there will be masters who practice Jin Realm to perform it.
After three days and two nights, the five of them finally arrived at their destination. Immediately, they could feel a heavy and dead air.
This is the downside of hundreds of deaths.
Before they came, everything was just verbal, but after they arrived, Chen Zong and the other five showed solemn faces.
The whole village was dead silent, and under the gloomy and cold atmosphere, there was an invisible pressure. Ordinary people would probably be scared out of their wits after a short stay.
"Let's separate and investigate in each direction to see if we can find any clues." Zhou Dong suggested.
"It's not right, if the dispersal is broken one by one, it will be troublesome." Zhan Ying objected.
"I want to see how to defeat them one by one." Xiao Hongfu snorted coldly, and walked quickly to the side.
"My side." Zhou Dong smiled and went to the other side, but Yi Qianren chose another direction without saying a word.
Zhanying helplessly shook his head.
The five of them are all the chief elder brothers of each school. They are equal in terms of strength and status. No one is convinced by the other, and each has arrogance.
"Brother Chen, why don't we join forces?" Zhan Ying felt that it would be safer to act together. Compared with this mission, it was weird. If one was not careful, he might be the same as the previous twenty or so people, never returning.
"Okay." Chen Zong will not be indifferent to arrogance. In the final analysis, he is just a small eighth-level warrior of Qi and Blood Realm. What a proud qualification.
Chen Zong and Zhan Ying teamed up and chose another direction to walk. Both of them walked very lightly, one was in charge of the left and the other was in charge of the right. Their sharp eyes scanned carefully, looking for all possible traces.
The corpses of hundreds of villagers had already been burned, and they could not see them. The twenty or so people who performed the task before did not know where they went, maybe they died.
After half a day, the five of them circled the entire village, but nothing useful happened.
"It's getting late, let's stay here at night." Zhan Ying suggested.
"The task has not been completed yet, so of course I am staying here temporarily." Xiao Hongfu said coldly. As the chief senior brother of Diyaotang, he has a sense of superiority. After all, Diyaotang belongs to the elite hall. There is a domineering attitude.
The five people each choose a room and live not far from each other.
In the middle of the night, Chen Zong had finished practicing the True Sword Heaven Absolute Art.
"It may be difficult to break through to the ninth level of Qi and Blood Realm in a short period of time, and it may not be so easy to reach the fifth level of the True Sword Heavenly Absolute Art." Chen Zong exhaled and said secretly.
No matter if one's cultivation reaches the ninth level of Qi and Blood Realm or the fifth level of True Sword Heaven's Absolute Skill, it will bring a significant improvement to one's own strength.
Chen Zong reckoned that it would be very difficult without more than a month. If someone knew, he would be able to break through from the peak of the eighth level of Qi and Blood Realm to the ninth level of Qi and Blood Realm in one or two months. Hit and kick.
After all, it is normal for most warriors to pause for half a year at the peak of the eighth-level Qi and Blood Realm.
"Who?" The eyes of Chen Zong who had just breathed out were sharp and sharp, and the Fake Frost Sword was unsheathed in an instant, turning into a stream of frost-like sword light that tore through the air and fire, and stabbed back.
"The reaction is quick, but it's a pity that I'm going to die." Under the ferocious laughter was a voice full of murderous intent. A black shadow appeared, and its sharp claws swung out. Under the cold light, it collided with the fake Shuangliu sword several times in a row. After the tyrannical force shook the sword away, the sharp claws drove straight in, turning into the sharpest and most ruthless cold light, tearing the air and grabbing at Chen Zong's throat.
With a flick of the wrist, the Fake Frost Flow Sword turned into a colder light, cutting towards the shadow's head.
"It's a bit difficult." Soi Ying's sinister laughter sounded again, with a strong bloody and murderous look, which made people uncomfortable.
The sharp claws of the cold light spread all over, resisting Chen Zong's sword again, and the other claw was still grabbed forward, but it changed instantly and stabbed at Chen Zong's heart.
With one sword and eight changes, Chen Zong not only defuses the opponent's sharp claw attack, but also fights back, peeling off the black robe covering the opponent's body, revealing a thin but extremely vigorous figure.
The appearance is a bit weird, and Chen Zong reminded him of a wolf at first glance, especially those eyes, which were full of wolf-like ferocity, and the muscles of his vigorous body were distorted, full of terrifying power, and his hands held sharp claws , the cold light shone under the candlelight.
The tyrannical qi and blood fluctuations reached the peak of the ninth level of the qi and blood realm, with a tyrannical aura, like a monster.
With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Chen Zong couldn't help blurting out: "You are from the Black Demon Sect!"
In a word, Chen Zong saw a look of astonishment flashing across the other party's face, and immediately laughed grinningly again: "A little person on the eighth floor of Qi and Blood Realm actually knows about our Black Demon Sect. die."
As soon as the words fell, the disciple of the Black Demon Sect jumped forward, attacking and killing like a wolf, the wind paved the surface, full of murderous aura, people who were not strong enough in spirit and will would feel afraid under this kind of aura, and all their strength It's hard to show how much.
Chen Zong once fought with a disciple of the Black Demon Sect, and even cut off one of the opponent's arms, but that was when the opponent was injured and his strength was limited and he was unable to perform high-level martial arts. The feeling was completely different from today, but he himself was not previous self.
The Fake Frost Flowing Sword brought out bursts of cold light, as if the ground was covered with frost, the sky was full of cold snow, and the sword was merciless.
Needless to say, Chen Zong can be sure that all the hundreds of villagers in this village died overnight. It must be done by people from the Black Demon Sect. The twenty or so Qiyao Martial Academy who accepted the mission but never returned The disciples probably all died at the hands of Hei Yaomen.
Even when the five of us entered here, we were also targeted by the people from the Black Demon Sect. They didn't wait until night to attack, and we were attacked and killed. It is estimated that the other four were also the same.
Just as Chen Zong thought, Zhan Ying and the other four were all attacked and killed, but their strength is not weak, and they are also at the first level of genius. Even if the Black Demon sect claims to be capable of overpowering many fighters of the same level, they cannot defeat them for a while.
Within the five wooden houses, five different but equally dangerous battles were going on.
"Kill!" Chen Zong slashed out with a sword, and the sword light condensed, emitting an astonishing light, dazzling and dazzling, making it difficult for the opponent to look directly at it.
Just when the eyes were closed and opened, a terrifying sword light had already slashed in front of him without mercy.
His complexion changed drastically. The disciple of the Black Demon Sect immediately crossed his claws to resist the sword's beheading. The tyrannical force burst out, and he was directly repelled and hit the wall of the wooden house. The sharp claws left cut marks. Chen Zong received a stronger impact, backed up and smashed through the wooden door.
After all, what Chen Zong used was a top-notch precious iron sword, and the sharp claws used by this black demon sect were only precious iron grades, even if they were top precious iron grades, they could not compare with precious iron grades.
