The five people accepted the collection task. The more valuable all the materials and spiritual herbs collected, the more contribution points they can get, and the higher the corresponding task rating will be.
If you only collect some ordinary materials and spiritual herbs, although you can complete the task, you will only get a passing rating in the task assessment.
For many ambitious inner disciples, what they pursue is more than just passing the exam.
Every task accepted by the inner disciples will be evaluated according to the degree of completion of the task, and divided into four levels: excellent, good, qualified, and unqualified.
If he fails to pass three tasks in a row, it means that the disciple's ability is very poor.
If you want to take on missions in the future, you will only receive the worst missions.
Similarly, if three consecutive tasks are rated as excellent, you will have more options, and some tasks with higher authority will be opened.
The purpose of these people's trip is to get the magical grass in the Red Fox Valley, the three-leaf phantom flower.
The three-leaf phantom flower is a first-class spiritual grass, but its value is higher than the ordinary second-class spiritual grass.
Just because it is an auxiliary herb required for refining the Foundation Building Pill.
If you find the three-eyed red fox, you have a certain probability of finding the three-leaf phantom flower.
"Can there really be a three-leaf phantom flower here?"
Along the way, she encountered several kinds of demon foxes, but she didn't even see the fur of the red fox. Xiao Qingyu finally lost her temper.
Xiao Qingyu is Chu Chan'er's retinue. Although she is said to be a retinue, she is more like a concubine in the world.
Along the way, everyone saw their various behaviors, and they felt very contemptuous of Xiao Qingyu.
After entering the immortal sect, he did not know how to practice well. Instead, he learned the tricks of some indecent mundane halls and served others with his beauty.
Not to mention the inner disciples, even the retinues were unwilling to pay attention to him.
Chu Chan'er opened her red lips lazily, "Of course there is, it just depends on whether we are lucky enough."
It's not difficult to deal with the three-eyed red fox, but the difficult part is how to find this demon fox's lair.
A cunning rabbit still has three burrows, let alone a fox who is famous for his cunning?
Huangfu Yao's expression suddenly changed, "The spirit survey plate detected weak spiritual energy fluctuations in the front left, which may be spiritual grass or lurking monsters."
Hearing this, all ten people in the group went on alert.
Along the way, they were able to save themselves from danger many times, and the spirit plate survey was indispensable.
Zhao Mingren quickly made arrangements, "Huangfu Yao will come with me to investigate the situation, and the others will be on standby, ready to respond to us at any time."
After the explanation, the two of them walked side by side and cautiously walked forward.
Although Xu Chunniang is meditating, she still has spiritual energy left to explore the spirit beads.
Therefore, she felt that there was a strong spiritual energy wave approaching from outside the formation, so she stopped meditating and looked thoughtful.
That demon fox is back so soon?
It's impossible. The demon fox's injuries are more serious than hers, and she will never dare to come back in a short time.
Xu Chunniang's expression was slightly condensed, and she walked towards the entrance of the cave. When she saw the two monks outside clearly through the concealment formation, she looked slightly stunned.
What they were wearing were the uniform robes of the inner disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect.
There is actually an acquaintance among these two people.
Although they had not seen her for five years, her temperament had changed a lot, but her appearance had not changed much. Therefore, Xu Chunniang recognized the female cultivator at a glance as Huangfu Yao.
Xu Chunniang's mind was racing with thoughts, how could an inner disciple... appear here?
Are they here to practice? Or are they here for the three-eyed red fox?
She couldn't tell the strange male cultivator's cultivation level. He was probably at least at the eighth level of Qi training.
There was a solemn look in her eyes. No matter why they appeared here, if these two people wanted to forcefully break the formation, with Huangfu Yao here, she could only reveal her identity.
Xu Chunniang got a bamboo hat in the storage bag of the monk from the Gao family.
But the bamboo hat is just an ordinary thing. If it is far away, it can cover a little or two, but the distance is so close. If there is a fight, it will inevitably not reveal the traces.
I didn't see how Xu Chunniang moved, but I saw a sudden change in her aura.
It was then seen that his cultivation level instantly dropped from the seventh level of Qi training to the sixth level of Qi training, then to the fifth level of Qi training, and finally stayed at the early stage of the fourth level of Qi training.
The fourth level of Qi training seems a bit too low...
A look of thought flashed across Xu Chunniang's eyes. With her cultivation level at the fourth level of Qi training, it can be said that her life is in danger at any time if she appears in the Red Fox Valley.
If the cultivation level is too low, it will lead to more suspicion.
Her thoughts moved slightly, and her cultivation level slowly increased, finally stabilizing at the mid-level of the fifth level of Qi training.
I came to Red Fox Valley on the fifth level of Qi training. My cultivation level is still a little low, but it is still passable.
A trace of ruthlessness flashed in Xu Chunniang's eyes. If these two people continued to harm her after revealing their identity, she would not sit still and wait for death.
Outside the formation, Zhao Mingren and Huangfu Yao were a little surprised.
"This was originally a demon fox cave, but a concealment formation was set up at the entrance of the cave. Most likely, some monks killed the demon fox inside and occupied the cave."
Zhao Mingren only took a few glances and made a rough guess about the situation.
In fact, this situation has been encountered several times.
The soul surveying disk in Huangfu Yao's hand is a first-class spiritual weapon, so it is not surprising that he can detect a first-class medium-grade concealment formation.
They can't even afford high-grade formations. From this, it seems that the strength of the monks inside is not strong.
"Let's go!"
It is better to do less than to do more. Zhao Mingren did not want to deal with the monks in the formation.
Huangfu Yao was a little unhappy with the result, but didn't say anything and followed Zhao Mingren back.
Watching the two of them walk away, Xu Chunniang did not lower her guard. Who knows if they will come back?
She thought for a while and cleaned up the blood and mess in the cave.
After I couldn't see anything at all, I felt a little relieved.
Not long after she finished all this, the two people came back.
In addition to the unknown man and Huangfu Yao, there were eight other people behind them.
It seems that a few of the people behind were injured, quite seriously.
Xu Chunniang even saw two acquaintances inside, Wei Dawu and Qi Haozhi.
The rest of the people are all unfamiliar faces.
While Xu Chunniang was meditating, a group of ten people had already arrived in front of the formation.
Zhao Mingren handed over the formation and said, "We are inner disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect who are practicing here. Our junior brothers and sisters are injured and continue to receive treatment. I would like to trouble the Taoist friends inside to make it easier for me to activate the formation and borrow it from the cave for my use."
He didn't expect that he would go and come back again. Thinking of what happened just now, his expression didn't look good.
Just as he and Huangfu Yao left, the remaining eight people encountered a monster.
A demon fox at the eighth level of Qi training would not be afraid if Zhao Mingren was present, but he was not there at that time.
Fortunately, Zhao Mingren returned in time and there were no casualties. Only three people were injured by the demon fox.
Seeing the bad opportunity, the demon fox ran away immediately, and Zhao Mingren had nothing to do even if he was angry.
Seeing that the three people were seriously injured and there were no other good hiding places nearby, he had no choice but to lead his team back.
Zhao Mingren knew that his actions were a bit presumptuous, but as the team leader, he had to find a safe place as soon as possible for his junior brothers and sisters to heal their injuries. For a while, he couldn't care about so much anymore.
The rest of the people were ready to take action when Zhao Mingren spoke.
If the monks inside agreed to let them in, that would be the best. If not, they could only break the formation and drive away the monks inside.
Xu Chunniang took a deep breath, and sure enough, what was supposed to come would always come.
But with so many people around, even if Huangfu Yao had any thoughts about her, he would not take action openly.
And it seemed that she couldn't control the man with advanced cultivation.
Xu Chunniang removed her formation and stood in front of several people to greet them.
"Outer disciple Xu Chunniang, I have met all the senior brothers and sisters."
"It's you!"
Qi Haozhi exclaimed, never expecting that the one hiding in the formation here was that ugly girl from the outer gate!
But soon, his expression turned gloomy. This ugly girl had stayed in the outer sect for five years and had actually reached the fifth level of Qi training.
Compared to him, he is actually not slower at all.
