Chapter 442: Advantage 1
Among all the ways to earn immortal stones, rob others the fastest, or take out high-end goods to auction...
After pondering for a while, Xiao Lingyu suddenly turned around and entered the mercenary building, staring at the light curtains on the walls on both sides.
If you want to rob, you can only rob strong cultivators, because they have a large number of immortal crystals in their hands. Xiao Lingyu, who just came to the fairy world, did not want to make a grudge with the masters of the fairy world. As for the high-end goods, Xiao Lingyu thought it would be better to leave them for him.
After thinking about it, Xiao Lingyu decided to earn immortal crystals by doing tasks.
Five million immortal crystals are not a small number, and ordinary tasks are not rewarded. Tasks with high rewards are naturally difficult and dangerous.
After watching for a long time, he went to the counter again to wait in line.
Another half an hour passed, and Xiao Lingyu arrived in front of the cabinet. Before the pretty girl could ask, he spoke first: "I'll take over the task, it's the task of collecting ten sand crystals."
Although the beautiful girl recognized Xiao Lingyu, she did not ask any more questions, but said: "The mission deposit requires five thousand immortal crystals."
Although anyone can accept the tasks issued by mercenaries, they need to pay a certain deposit. This deposit is actually a handling fee. Regardless of whether you complete the task or not, the deposit will not be refunded. However, if you complete the task, the mercenary organization will give you full reward and no other fees will be charged.
It is said that there was no deposit in the past. When monks completed their tasks, they came to receive the remuneration, and the mercenary organization deducted the handling fee from the remuneration. However, after many monks completed the tasks, they directly found the person who issued the tasks and received the reward privately. The person who posted the tasks then came to the mercenary branch to cancel the task, saving the handling fee of the mercenary. Therefore, the mercenary organization later had the regulations to pay the deposit first for receiving tasks.
Originally, monks who took on tasks were generally unable to contact monks who released tasks, but some tasks needed to contact the person who released tasks to better complete them. Mercenary organizations cannot rely on concealing the information of monks who released tasks to ensure that every monk who completed tasks would pay them relevant fees.
After handing over the five thousand immortal crystals, Xiao Lingyu got a jade plaque and then left the mercenary building.
First, he bought a jade slip that burned the map of Zumaru mainland in a store in the city, and then Xiao Lingyu left Zumaru City.
Xiao Lingyu had read the contents of the jade slip and knew where he should go. After distinguishing the direction at the city gate, he jumped up and flew northeast of the city city.
After leaving Maru Castle, Xiao Lingyu gradually increased his speed and flew at full speed for three days before he stopped at the edge of a desert with countless sand dunes.
This desert is very famous in Zuomaru Continent, called Sand Eagle Hill, and is named because it contains many Sand Eagle.
Any sand eagle with a cultivation level of the mysterious demon has sand crystals in its head, and sand crystals are a high-quality material containing the power of the soul.
Xiao Lingyu came here to hunt the sand eagle.
After getting ten sand crystals, you can complete the task and go to the mercenary branch to receive a reward of 200,000 immortal crystals.
However, the sand eagle is a bird-like monster. Its speed is extremely fast, and far exceeds the human cultivator of the same period. The speed of the sand eagle in the early stage of the Xuan Demon is comparable to the speed of the human cultivator in the late stage of the Xuan Demon.
Generally speaking, it is difficult for cultivators who have less than the Immortal Lord’s level to hunt sand eagles to the Mysterious Demonic Stage to arrive at Shaying Hill Hill. They cannot catch up with them at all. How can they hunt?
Moreover, most of the sand eagles do not act alone. In most cases, they are in groups. They come to Shaying Hill without the cultivation level of the Immortal Lord. It is estimated that the sand eagle did not kill one, but instead became the food in the sand eagle's belly.
If you encounter groups of paired sand eagles, even those who are strong in the Immortal Lord level can only choose to retreat.
It is precisely because hunting sand eagles is difficult and there are quite a few dangers that sand crystal is a high-level soul material that the reward for this task is very high.
After a short pause outside the Shaying Hill, Xiao Lingyu flew into the depths of the Shaying Hill.
The Sand Eagle Dunes are vast in area, with countless not very high sand dunes. Looking down from mid-air, the sand dunes look like layers of waves.
Countless sand eagles whose cultivation level is less than the Xuan Demon stage flap their wings and fly between the sand dunes, or chase and play, and do not realize that they are the targets of being hunted.
The sand eagle with weak cultivation has no sand crystals in its head, so no one will hunt them down. The strong men on the Zumao Continent even ordered the monks to ban the cultivators from killing the weak sand eagle.
Ordinary sand eagles have yellow feathers, and their appearance is not much different from ordinary big eagles. They have sharp claws, mouths that look like iron hooks, and very sharp eyes... If they are not moved, they are prostrated on the sand and stones. If monks do not use their immortal consciousness to carefully scan and look at them with their naked eyes, it will be difficult to find their existence.
The higher the cultivation level of the sand eagle, the better it will hide between the sand dunes.
And in this desert, there is a kind of gerbil monster, who is the hunting target of the sand eagles.
Like other rat monsters, the gerbil monsters have an amazing reproductive speed, and are mostly hidden in underground nests and will only come out in the dark.
Like the gerbil monster, the sand eagle also lazily lying among the sand dunes during the day or slept soundly or played soundly. At night, it flapped its wings and wandered in the air. When they found the gerbil monster, they flew down like sharp arrows.
The sand eagle in the Xuanmo period is also active in the dark and only hunts gerbil monsters with similar cultivation levels. Although the sand eagle has natural advantages, it will take some trouble to deal with gerbil monsters with similar cultivation levels.
Experienced falcons will go out at night, and usually hunt gerbil monsters first, and then use gerbil monsters as bait to lure the sand eagle.
This experience is not a secret. There is a related introduction in that map jade slip.
After Xiao Lingyu entered the Shaying Hill, he restrained his breath, hid in a cave, and quietly waited for the arrival of the night.
Four hours later, the sky was completely dark, and the rustling sound of the gerbil demon who left the cave and came to the ground was not very obvious in the howling wind of the Sand Eagle Hills. However, the Sand Eagles who were gliding quietly in the air while staring at the earth with sharp eyes could hardly make any sound.
Gerry monsters have very powerful ear power. They can clearly distinguish various movements and stills when the wind is raging. Whenever a sand eagle pounces on them, they can sense danger by urging the friction sounds caused by the rapid flight of the sand eagle and the air. This is an important means for gerbils to avoid hunting the sand eagle.
Xiao Lingyu's ears are not as strong as gerbils, and his eyesight is not as strong as a sand eagle, but he spread his mind with all his strength to cover the large area of space around him. He could see clearly whether it was the sand eagle in the air or the gerbil on the ground.
Xiao Lingyu naturally would not take ordinary gerbils and sand eagles to heart. Even if gerbils pass by or sand eagles fly over his head, he would not move at all.
After waiting for a whole night, no gerbil or sand eagle from the Xuan Demon stage entered the scope of his thoughts.
This is also normal. Many falcons are very patient and often lurk in a place for several months or even years before they can wait until the target appears.
The darkness once again enveloped the entire Zuomaru continent, but darkness could not make this continent quiet.
All over the Sand Eagle Hills, sand eagles kept pounceing down from mid-air, either pounced on them or grabbed a gerbil and flew up again.
After waiting for nearly ten days, a gerbil in the middle stage of the Xuan Demon finally entered the range of Xiao Lingyu's thoughts.
