Gongde Hall, one of the four major halls of Lingxiao Sword Pavilion.
If the Xiaoyun Order of the Jiange disciples wants to improve their level, there is only one way to do it, and that is to gain merit points.
Merit points can be exchanged for spiritual jade, but there are limitations. For example, for Renbang disciples, no matter how many spiritual jade they have, the merit exchanged can only upgrade the Xiaoyun Order to the third level.
After the third level, no amount of spiritual jade can be exchanged for merit.
The only way is to complete the tasks issued by the Palace of Merits. There will be no restrictions on the merits awarded by the tasks.
For the vast majority of sect disciples, completing sect tasks is the most important way to advance to the Xiaoyun Order.
After all, using spiritual jade to upgrade the Xiaoyun Order is really not cost-effective.
But completing the sect's mission is different.
Not only can you get merit points, but you can also get various generous rewards, such as elixirs, spiritual jade, mysterious weapons, secret treasures, etc.
Most of the resources obtained from the sect's cultivation come from this.
Therefore, whenever the Merit Hall releases tasks, a large number of sect disciples will gather.
Luojia Mountain and Gongde Hall are not far apart.
Lin Yun and the others arrived at the Hall of Merit in the space of about two cups of tea.
In the majestic hall, hundreds of outer disciples gathered at this moment, and the number is still increasing.
Stepping inside, Lin Yun raised his eyes and saw that the hall, approaching thousands of people, did not seem crowded at all.
Inside the hall, there are four ancient stone walls erected, and palm-sized wooden plaques are hung on the walls.
The wooden sign is the task sign. Taking the wooden sign off indicates that you have accepted the task.
Within the sect, there are strict requirements for tasks, and the rewards are generous. Once you fail, you will also be punished.
Especially for tasks issued by certain sect elders, the consequences of failure are the most terrifying.
Lingxiao Sword Pavilion has a long history and a long inheritance.
There are many old antiques in the sect. If you accept the tasks of these old antiques, you will not complete them.
If you are angry, you will be punished very horribly.
Even the four guardians couldn't stop this old antique from getting angry.
The four walls correspond to A, B, C and D, four different levels of tasks.
Class A tasks have the highest rewards. Upon completion, they will earn at least thousands of merit points. There will also be additional rewards such as spiritual jade, elixirs, and mysterious weapons, which are extremely tempting.
The difficulty coefficients are also equal.
There are not many people stopping at the A-grade wall, but the B-grade wall at the next level is quite popular.
There were so many people stopping here that the walls of the mission were packed to the brim.
"Is a first-class mission so difficult?"
Lin Yun was slightly surprised when he saw that almost no one was stopping in front of the Grade A wall.
"It's difficult. Once the mission fails, the punishment is also terrible. Moreover, these missions are very rare, and there is an unwritten unspoken rule within the sect."
"What rules?"
"Class A tasks are restricted to the top ten people on the list. If you are not among the top ten on the list, if you take it rashly, you will get into trouble that you shouldn't get into. It is equivalent to declaring war on everyone in the top ten!"
Huangfu Jingxuan looked solemn and said cautiously.
Lin Yunqi asked: "Who made these rules?"
"No one has made a decision, it's just everyone's acquiescence. It has been like this for hundreds of thousands of years. Although Class A tasks are threatening, the rewards are also extremely generous. Coupled with its rarity, it has become an alternative resource."
Huangfu Jingxuan explained: "The top ten people on the list have a tacit understanding and have monopolized this resource for a long time. If you are not in the top ten, you are absolutely prohibited from accepting A and other tasks. Once you accept it, you will be against the top ten people on the list.
How disrespectful!"
As he spoke, he looked at Lin Yun's expression and saw that he didn't seem to care too much.
He couldn't help but warn: "The top ten on the list are all extremely terrifying. Their cultivation level is at least the fourth level of Xuanwu, and they all master a Xuan-level super-grade martial arts."
"Those who can dominate the top ten,
There won't be a weak person, and what's even more troublesome is that once you really pick it up, it's very likely that the top ten people you'll offend will attack you at the same time. When the time comes, the sect may not help you. This rule is that the sect
Acquiesced!"
Lin Yun smiled: "It's okay, I'll go take a look."
Huangfu Jingxuan smiled bitterly in his heart, if you really just went to take a look, then there would be a ghost.
Since you accept a task, you should naturally take the one that suits you best. If you are really capable of completing the task of Grade A Wall, there is no reason not to take it.
rule?
Wang Yan doesn't even have to abide by the rules expressly prescribed by his sect, let alone the rules that he acquiesces to in private.
Rules are meant to be broken.
In martial arts practice, what you seek is a happy relationship, that is, don't constantly break all kinds of constraints, seek great freedom, and seek great freedom!
If you obviously have strength, but you are still subject to various restrictions and stick to the rules.
Not only is it pedantic, it's also a bit stupid.
Lin Yun strode forward and walked towards the Grade A task wall.
"What is he going to do?"
"If I remember correctly, even though he killed Ye Liuyun, he was only ranked thirty-sixth on the list. He was not officially listed on the list, so he became the top ten on the list. This is a bit against the rules."
"Is it possible that Lin Yun thinks he has the strength to face everyone's top ten?"
When he saw Lin Yun and stopped in front of the Grade A task wall, an uproar sounded in the Hall of Merit.
There are all kinds of sect missions, all kinds of strange ones.
Some are local powerful forces entrusting the sect to help solve the troubles they encounter. Some are tasks issued by the sect internally, among which the tasks issued by the Pill Hall have the most generous rewards.
There are four levels of tasks, each level has a corresponding difficulty, with one star being the lowest and five stars being the highest.
Class A tasks are indeed rare.
Lin Yun took a quick look at it. It was sparse and there were less than twenty mission cards.
Looking through the task cards at random, he saw that each first-class task had been abandoned by him for various reasons.
Some are really too difficult to complete by one person, some are too time-consuming, and some are too tight on time.
The first-class mission was not as tempting as he imagined.
Suddenly, Lin Yun's eyes lit up and he carefully looked at the content on one of the wooden signs.
Mission: Collect fifty blood essences.
Specific content: The blood wolf Xuanwu three-level monsters are ferocious and brutal, gathering in the depths of the Moyun Mountains. The eyebrows on the top of their heads are brightly colored, containing extremely rich essence, and have endless magical uses. They can be directly polished and used as jewelry, and they can also be used to refine elixirs.
Medicine, the best material for mysterious weapons.
Difficulty: five stars.
Reward: Three thousand merit points, one hundred Great Mysterious Pills, and two hundred second-grade spiritual jade.
"Second-grade spiritual jade?"
Lin Yun thought thoughtfully, spiritual jade is divided into nine grades, with first grade being the lowest and ninth grade being the highest. The higher the grade, the more difficult it is to refine, and it is difficult to obtain second grade spiritual jade through ordinary means.
He looked through other five-star tasks, and sure enough, only first-class five-star tasks would reward second-grade spiritual jade.
Moreover, there are not many of them.
"Since I choose not to use elixirs now, this second-grade spiritual jade is very urgent for me."
That’s it, rub it!
Lin Yun stretched out his hand and took down all the remaining three first-class five-star missions.
There were not many tasks on the A-grade wall, but Lin Yun picked up four of them at once, making them seem even rarer.
Ignoring the stunned expressions of others, Lin Yun walked straight towards the deacon of Merit Hall.
The deacon looked at Lin Yun, was quite shocked, and tried to dissuade him a few times.
But now that he has chosen it, there is no reason to put it back.
"Where are the five-star missions? Why are there no five-star missions left!"
Lin Yun, who had just finished the process and was about to leave with Huangfu Jingxuan, suddenly heard a loud roar.
"That bastard didn't follow the rules and took all the five-star missions!"
A terrifying aura filled the Hall of Merit, and a young man in gray clothes stood in front of the first-class wall with a gloomy expression.
The top ten people on the list all have a tacit understanding with each other.
Absolutely not, I will take away all the first-class five-star tasks at once.
The only possibility is that someone else broke the rules and took away all the five-star tasks with the most generous rewards.
The other outer sect disciples in the main hall were suddenly as silent as a chill, not daring to make a sound.
At the same time, he was greatly shocked. It turned out that Lin Yun had picked up all the first-class five-star missions.
This appetite is really a bit too big.
Huangfu Jingxuan's face changed slightly in front of the second-level wall, and he secretly thought, "Oh no."
He is in the top ten of the list, Zhang Lie!
This guy's character is notoriously cruel, and he is very ruthless in his attacks.
The Biyan sword technique in his hand is unparalleled in violence and has already reached the state of great success.
Beside him, there were two companions with equally ugly faces.
"Tell me! Who took this first-class five-star mission away!"
Zhang Lie was so angry that he reached out and grabbed someone and asked in a cold voice.
The man was tightly held by his collar, his breathing was rapid, sweat dripped from his forehead, and he was too frightened to say a word.
"Don't tell me!"
"Senior Brother Zhang, please spare me... I don't know..."
How dare that person say that neither Lin Yun nor Zhang Lie were the ones he could afford to offend.
It would be okay if Lin Yun wasn't here, just say it directly.
But Lin Yun didn't leave at all. If he said it directly, it would be like directly offending Lin Yun.
Thinking about Ye Liuyun, who was thirty-sixth on the list, he was killed by Lin Yun with a sword. How could he have such courage?
"court death!"
Zhang Lie had a sullen face, murderous aura escaping from his body, and it seemed that it would be impossible if he didn't give him a lesson.
The deacons in the main hall looked indifferent and ignored it.
To them, it is too normal, and they have long been used to it. As long as no one is killed and the trouble is not out of control, deacons and elders will not easily take action against conflicts between disciples.
It is the characteristic of the sect that the weak eat the strong.
The sect prohibits killing, and when it comes to the outside world, it will only become more cruel.
"Let him go, I took over this task."
Lin Yun frowned slightly, took a step forward, and said calmly.
Zhang Lie glanced at him and threw the person he was holding out.
"Lin Yun?"
"It's me."
"Do you think that by killing Ye Liuyun, you really don't care about the top ten of us?"
Zhang Lie was as cold as ice, staring at Lin Yun, and said coldly.
Lin Yun said calmly: "Whatever you think, since the sect is forbidden, I can take on first-class tasks. You can just do this to me, and there is no need to affect others."
"Arrogant!"
Zhang Lie snorted coldly: "There is no prohibition in the sect, but let me tell you, there are rules for people to be listed on the list of people, and there are rules for the list of people to be listed on the ground. Since your name is hanging on the list of people, you can't help but abide by it.
Don't compare the top ten people on the list to a waste like Ye Liuyun, you have no chance to use your domineering sword in front of me."
"But the rules have to be broken by someone. Since Class A tasks exist, they shouldn't be just the privilege of a few people. Since I have the confidence to take it, I don't need to bother you to worry about it."
Lin Yun responded, not wanting to waste any time on this person, so he turned around and left.
"I'm warning you one last time, spit out all the tasks you took on privately, otherwise, you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Zhang Lie's bone-chilling voice came out word by word.
"It doesn't seem to make sense?"
Lin Yun, who had his back turned to the others, slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a smile.
rock!
His arms shook violently, and the heavy sword box suddenly fell to the ground. The huge Hall of Merit suddenly began to shake, as if a mountain peak had fallen.
