Kong Laosan glanced at the woman up and down, and said calmly.
"Haha, my surname is Xu. I just saw fellow Taoist hesitating outside the door for a long time. It must be the first time I have come to this headquarters. If you don't mind, how about I lead you to register?"
The woman surnamed Xu didn't mind Kong Laosan's rather cold attitude, but instead greeted her. This made Kong Laosan a little confused. Just when he was about to refuse, he saw that the woman was already walking to the left, and thought about it.
Thinking, he swallowed the words that reached his mouth and followed the woman silently.
"This is the day where our Beihai Merchant Alliance accepts mission submissions in exchange for contribution points. Fellow Taoists have just joined the Merchant Alliance, so they probably don't know much about it. As long as we early Golden Elixir cultivators can complete 100,000 contribution points every month,
It’s just a mission, but there aren’t many rules and regulations. That’s where we get the mission.”
Hearing this, Kong Laosan subconsciously looked in the direction indicated by the woman, and saw that in the center, a huge crystal wall of more than thirty feet was inserted into the earth, with countless characters and symbols densely covered with a layer of it.
Qingguang, with his eyes alone, can see the words above clearly.
A closer look revealed that these tasks were clearly divided into several parts by some thin blue lines, which were divided in order according to Qi refining, foundation building, golden elixir, and Nascent Soul. The higher up, the fewer the tasks and the higher the difficulty. At the same time,
The more contribution points you get. Of course, as long as you have the strength, even foundation-building cultivators can take on some tasks specially prepared for golden elixir cultivators. There is no clear distinction between them.
"I heard fellow Taoist Xu just said that as long as we early-stage Jindan cultivators can complete the task of 100,000 contribution points every month? Isn't it a task forcibly assigned by the above?"
Kong Laosan frowned. There was not much expression on his face, but his tone seemed a bit deep.
"How is this possible? If some tasks are extremely dangerous, wouldn't your life be in danger once it falls on you? Our merchant alliance has never forcibly assigned tasks. I wonder where you got this news?"
After hearing what Kong Laosan said, the woman surnamed Xu shook her head indifferently. Instead, she was more curious about where Kong Laosan got the news. However, Kong Laosan naturally had no intention of explaining, and there was a hint of anger on her face.
Yi's appearance disappeared without a trace, and the good impression she had towards Feng Ranmei also disappeared without a trace. Obviously, she was deceived this time.
"It's nothing, I just heard it from a friend occasionally, and I guess I got it wrong."
Kong Laosan explained lightly. The woman surnamed Xu obviously didn't believe this explanation, and she still had a curious expression on her face. However, seeing Kong Laosan's expression of indifference and not wanting to talk more, she stopped talking.
.
"That's where tasks are accepted and submitted..."
Following the guidance of the woman surnamed Xu, in just a moment, Kong Laosan had already figured out everything about the situation here. The whole place was full of people coming and going, and it was very noisy. In just a cup of tea, the two of them were in a cupboard.
Paused in front of the pavilion
Come.
In front of the cabinet, in addition to Kong Laosan and Kong Laosan, there were three cultivators, two men and one woman, queuing up to register. The three people in front of them seemed to have just reached the foundation building, and their auras were still a little unstable. However, after the registration was completed, the three cultivators
The people seemed very excited, chattering all the way about going to hunt the sea monster and so on.
Regarding this, Kong Laosan could only sigh in his heart: Newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.
Golden elixir cultivators already have a certain status in the merchant alliance. After registration, they can choose any place in this sea area to open a cave.
"Third Elder, I will bring this fellow Taoist here to register."
In front of the cabinet, the woman surnamed Xu said in a rather respectful tone. After her voice fell, behind the cabinet, a wizened old man with an old face showed his big head, glanced at Kong Laosan, and nodded, "Put the sign on
Give me, in addition, a ray of spiritual power to imprint on this jade."
As the old man spoke, a piece of yellow jade about three feet in size and with a simple shape appeared in front of Kong Laosan.
He handed the sign to the old man casually, but when he heard that a ray of spiritual power would be imprinted on the jade, he hesitated a little.
"Fellow Taoist, please rest assured. This jade biscuit is only used to record the breath of your soul. It has no other purpose and will not have any impact on you."
As if she could see the worries in Kong Laosan's mind, the woman named Xu beside her opened her mouth to explain.
Hearing this, Kong Laosan nodded. After applying the power of spiritual thought, the jade in front of him automatically disappeared without a trace. At the same time, the old man raised his eyes and glanced at Kong Laosan casually, and slowly said, "
In the early stage of Jindan, according to the rules, you have the qualifications to open a cave, so you can choose a place at will."
As he spoke, the old man waved his sleeves, and above the void, a shadow of the sea about the size of a car hood was suspended in the air. The sea surface was filled with light, and the island became the size of a fist, scattered in all directions. Some red and green light spots fell on the island.
At first glance, it seems a bit densely packed.
"Each red light spot represents the cave of a golden elixir cultivator, and the green light spot is the location of the Yuanying seniors. Theoretically, you can choose to build the cave anywhere, but those Yuanying seniors usually like to be alone.
If you go alone, if you get too close, something unexpected may happen, so think carefully about it yourself."
Kong Laosan looked at the virtual shadow carefully. Compared with the dense red light spots, there were only dozens of scattered green light spots, distributed on thousands of islands in front of him. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see them at all.
After a rough scan of more than a thousand islands, Kong Laosan discovered a strange phenomenon. Except for the island where the Beihai Merchant Alliance headquarters is located at his feet, the red light spots on the other islands were almost evenly distributed. However, on
On the outermost edge of these more than a thousand islands, a smaller island near the west side is not inhabited at all, and the entire island is heavily painted in black.
"This island is..."
Kong Laosan pondered for a while and then asked.
"I have heard some rumors. It is said that this island was originally occupied by a Nascent Soul ghost cultivator who joined the merchant alliance. Later, the ghost cultivator did not know what he was doing.
He Kuangda slaughtered all the mortal cultivators living on the island, turning the entire island into a place of death. Later, the ghost cultivator was removed by several Yuanying seniors, and there was no longer any cultivator on the island.
It is willing to live, and only a few secular mortals who have grown up on this ghost island for generations are still there."
The woman surnamed Xu spoke softly, glanced at the silent old man behind the cabinet, shook her head, and said no more.
"Oh? I see. Then Kong will open a cave here."
Seeing the watch of the woman surnamed Xu, Kong Laosan also secretly glanced at the old man. There was nothing strange on his face. He pointed to another island next to this ghost island and said slowly.
It was only at this moment that the old man raised his eyes, nodded, and without saying a word, directly handed Kong Laosan a black storage bag, "There are some array flag array plates needed to open the cave, and some clothes."
If you don't have anything else to do, just go ahead. According to the regulations of the Merchant Alliance, newly joined Jindan cultivators have a month's rest. Starting next month, they will start preparing to receive tasks."
The old man reminded him, waved his hand, and said no more.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, that old man just now was..."
"Well, that third elder was once a powerful elder of the Beihai Merchant Alliance, and his strength reached the realm of Nascent Soul. However, it was during the battle with that ghost cultivator that he suffered a heavy blow. Not only did he fall to the realm of the late Golden Core, but also
The foundation was also destroyed, and it was reduced to the place where it is now guarded and registered."
The woman surnamed Xu said with some regret, then looked at Kong Laosan, chuckled and said, "Fellow Taoist has just joined the Merchant Alliance, are you interested in joining our Qingpeng team?"
"Qingpeng Team?"
When Kong Laosan heard this, he was slightly startled, and he immediately understood that this was probably what the woman named Xu was asking for when she greeted him like this. However, Kong Laosan naturally had his own plan in mind, and now he had just registered.
The situation of the entire Merchant Alliance has not yet been sorted out, so it is naturally impossible to casually agree to join the Qingpeng team.
However, before Kong Laosan could speak, the woman surnamed Xu slowly said, "Fellow Taoist has just arrived, so I may not be very clear about it. For us golden elixir cultivators, although one hundred thousand contribution points per month is not much, it is just a matter of traveling alone.
Being on the vast sea means that all kinds of unpredictable things may happen at any time. If you are not careful, you may be buried in the belly of the fish. If a few people work together, not only will many tasks become easier, but they will also be able to take care of each other.
, there are many benefits.
Of course, I also understand that fellow Taoist has just arrived here and needs a few days to get used to it. Our Qingpeng team plans to meet up at Beili Islands in seven days and go to the far sea to hunt some tiger sharks. If fellow Taoist is interested, you might as well go to a
exchange."
Hearing this, Kong Laosan remained calm on his face, but in his heart he admired the eloquence of this woman named Xu. Her words were well-founded and she was speechless. However, since she had a few days to think about it,
Kong Laosan was not in a hurry to reply, nodded, and after a few polite words, he galloped away in the direction of Xiqiong Island alone.
