A senior brother beside Lu Yang also noticed this task and laughed softly: "Every time I see this long-term task, I always think of the great achievements of the senior sister."
Another person also said: "When the fact that the senior sister wrote the exercises herself and pretended to have obtained them from the ruins cave heaven was exposed, it caused a lot of trouble."
"I heard from Master that there is a relic cave in Lingnan called Sishui Cave. The most precious treasure in the cave is the technique "Chaos Dawn Breaking Technique" left by the cave master before his death."
"The eldest sister once lied that she had found a martial arts book called "Chaos Breaking Dawn" in Sishui Cave Heaven. If you practice it to perfection, you can break through the chaos and gain insight into all the truths in the world."
"Not long after the lie of the eldest sister was exposed, someone accidentally passed through many dangerous barriers and came to the deepest part of Sishui Cave Heaven, and obtained the real "Chaos Dawn Breaking Art"."
"As a result, after comparing the methods, we found that the real method was not as easy to practice as the one compiled by the senior sister, and the final effect of the practice was even more different."
"After that, many secret manuals of martial arts were discovered in the ruins. All the martial arts with the same name were not as powerful as the one compiled by the senior sister. After the elders learned about this, they were silent for several days."
Lu Yang: “…”
Lu Yang had never seen the Yunzhi area of the Sutra Library. He thought it was because the skills compiled by the senior sister were too powerful, so they were all stored in the highest level of the Sutra Library and could not be read or practiced without special permission.
This is commonly known as taboo.
"Big Sister is extremely gifted, rare in the ages, and has great talent. She has a lot of ideas in her mind. Otherwise, people wouldn't say that it's a good thing for the Sect Master to go into seclusion and let Big Sister take over the Sect Master's duties."
"I also heard a rumor that the eldest sister seized power and usurped the throne, and locked up the sect master. She wanted to become the real sect master herself. She also had leverage over the eight elders, and the higher-ups didn't dare to resist. Someone heard sobbing sounds at Tianmen Peak at night. That was the sound made by the sect master in the dungeon!"
"Hahaha, this must be nonsense. It's absolutely impossible."
Lu Yang had never heard the so-called sect leader's whimpering at Tianmen Peak. He didn't take it seriously and continued to look for the mission.
Finally, he found one that met the requirements.
"According to the people of Taiping Township, Quhe County, a bird monster appeared in the township. It speaks human language. The specific species is unknown. There is no record of it hurting people or using magic. Can you ask Taoist Master Dao Zong to deal with this monster bird?"
Lu Yang thought for a moment and took on the task.
Judging from the description, it seems like some kind of monster that has strayed into human territory, or maybe it is a monster that has awakened its intelligence through some chance encounter with an immortal. The cultivation level of this kind of monster will not exceed the foundation-building stage, and its aggressiveness is not high. It may also be a monster that is close to humans, and is most suitable for newcomers like him.
And the rewards given by the mission hall also confirm this.
The mission rewards thirty contribution points.
Minimal mission rewards.
The mission reward is calculated by a special person from the Wendao Sect and then verified by another person. With this double guarantee, there are very few mistakes.
The lower the quest reward, the easier the quest is.
Lu Yang came to the front desk: "Brother, I will take on the task of dealing with the bird monster."
"I will take on the task of dealing with the bird monster." Another voice sounded, speaking almost at the same time as Lu Yang.
The owner of the voice was a little girl in a light pink dress. She had regular features and fair skin, and was as charming as a blooming peach blossom.
She has a sweet appearance and is in the foundation-building stage like Lu Yang, so the girl's identity is obvious.
"Junior Sister Tao Yaoye, what a coincidence." Lu Yang said with a smile. He had only seen Tao Yaoye when he first joined the sect. After that, he stayed in Tianmen Peak for a year and rarely saw outsiders.
Lu Yang was the first in the entrance test. Before the re-ranking, he was the senior of this class.
In fact, it was no coincidence that Tao Yaoye chose this task. There were not many tasks suitable for the foundation-building period, and there were only a few tasks that their session could complete.
"It's Senior Brother Lu. Congratulations on establishing your foundation. There are not many tasks in the foundation-building period. Why don't you and I work together to complete them and split the reward equally?" Tao Yaoye smiled sweetly. She was a little curious about this Senior Brother Lu who seldom showed up.
Lu Yang readily agreed.
When doing tasks, they don’t all care about the rewards; they just want to gain experience in the process.
"Quhe County is not too close to here, how about taking a flying boat?"
…
"Junior Sister Taoyao Ye, do you know that our human race is a rather contradictory race? Often people fear something and worship and yearn for something at the same time."
"I heard that in ancient times, demons were rampant, natural disasters were constant, and the human race was weak and struggled to survive in the cracks."
"Those great monsters relied on their ancestors' blood, strong physiques, and innate magical powers to run rampant in the wild land."
"Humans are afraid of big monsters. They think big monsters are like natural disasters and cannot be resisted. At the same time, they also worship big monsters and hope to gain the same power as big monsters."
“That’s how our ancient ancestors developed cultivation methods, learned magical powers from the blood of monsters, overcame numerous difficulties, stood on the top of the continent, and opened up a new world for the human race. The human race has been reborn ever since then!”
"For example, wind, rain, thunder and lightning. Ancient people feared them, but also yearned for them. They are the might and authority of nature, and the will of nature that cannot be defied!"
"Humans yearn for them, and also want to obtain the power and authority of nature. The ancient ancestors asked nine questions to heaven and earth, faced thunder, and comprehended in the wind and rain. They realized the truth that man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature, and they realized a series of Taoism methods!"
"Have you discovered that this contradictory mentality is a necessary element for the human race to become the overlord of the continent!"
"For example, the sky. Humans yearn for the sky and hope to fly freely in the sky like birds. They also stand in awe of the sky and think it is mysterious. This awe runs in their blood and is a mentality that every human has, whether it is obvious or hidden..."
On the flying boat, Lu Yang's heart was pounding. When he got excited, he suddenly stood up, gestured with his hands, and talked loudly.
Tao Yaoye thought calmly for a moment and interrupted Lu Yang's long speech.
"So that's why you're afraid of heights?"
"yes."
Tao Yaoye: “…”
The two of them were sitting in a flying boat that was flying among the clouds. The bottom of the boat was engraved with a balance formation mass-produced by a formation master. When a strong wind or rainstorm came, no one in the boat would feel a thing.
The sky was clear and the air was fresh at this time. It was a good opportunity to bask in the sun, meditate and enjoy the scenery on the deck. Tao Yaoye suggested that they go out for a walk on the deck, but Lu Yang was determined to be a Taoist and refused to agree no matter what.
Tao Yaoye was more curious than most people. After repeated questioning, Lu Yang had to start from ancient history to explain why he was afraid of heights. He quoted from classics and spoke eloquently to prove that fear of heights was a reasonable and ancient psychological state, and in a broader sense, it would also contribute to the progress of the human race.
Fortunately, Tao Yaoye didn't believe a word of it.
