Chapter seven hundred and ninety seventh chapter of four thousand characters
Mission Hall.
This place is one of the most lively areas of the sect. Every day, countless outer disciples wait in the task hall, staring at the task distribution list. Once a task with rich merit appears, they will immediately snatch it up.
Su Yu came to the mission hall, looked at the crowd of people, secretly smacked his lips, and glanced at it casually. There were at least thousands of outer disciples, looking at various mission lists.
The task list is divided into two, one is very huge, it is a projection hanging in the sky, and it is also the task that most people pay attention to.
There is also a task list, which does not have many followers. It is just a huge stone about one foot in size, erected next to the temple, and there is an old man who is unsmiling and sitting next to the huge stone.
It looks like it's very deserted here.
However, when a light flashes on the task list and a new task appears, it immediately attracts the attention of thousands of people, and their eyes are extremely hot, as if the task appearing on this task list is more special.
"Junior Brother Su, there are two task lists, called the human list and the ghost list. The human list is the huge list that issues ordinary tasks, and the ghost list is the giant stone list that issues special tasks. There is a huge difference between the two.
." Xue Qi was very interested in this trip to Yuling Mountain.
Su Yu's eyes showed a thoughtful expression: "How is it special?"
Xue Qi pursed her lips and smiled and said: "For example, only certain people can accept the Yuling Mountain mission, and the rest cannot accept any status! Or some very dangerous missions. Most of these missions are missions that even the outer disciples cannot complete. Some missions cannot be completed by the outer disciples.
, stayed on the list for ten years, and all recipients ended in failure."
A task that could not be completed even after ten years? Su Yu was surprised.
"Yes, it is said that this mission has a reward of three million meritorious deeds! And it is increasing every year. Even the geniuses of the inner sect are excited. Unfortunately, they have all failed over the years, and two people have even disappeared because of it.
More than a few." Gongsun Wuxie got out his little head and said with his eyes shining.
Three million meritorious deeds? Su Yu was shocked. What kind of difficult task was such a huge meritorious deed?
Moreover, what is the background of the person who issued this task?
However, Su Yu was just surprised, and had no plans to take on this task for the time being. He had not completed it for ten years, and the number of fallen inner sect geniuses was no less than double digits, which showed that the task was difficult.
Those who can enter the inner sect are those who are not outstanding in strength. They still have not been favored. Su Yu will naturally not ask for trouble.
I just keep this ten-year mission in mind.
When he came to the boulder, the rickety old man raised his eyelids and glanced at the seven Su Yus lightly: "Yuling Mountain mission?"
But he knew the purpose of Su Yu and others. Su Yu naturally nodded: "Exactly, please give me the task, senior."
The rickety old man glanced at Su Yu, casually took out a snow-white centipede from his sleeve, and threw it to Su Yu: "This is the white species of the black and white ice centipede. Take it to Yuling Mountain and give it to the owner of the villa. He will naturally arrange it."
You carry out your mission."
However, Su Yu understood the function of this thing. The eggs born from the black and white ice centipedes would give birth to two male and female centipedes at the same time. White is the female and black is the male. The two come from the same source and can react with each other.
This kind of spiritual insect is used as a token. When two centipedes come into contact, they will react.
As long as Su Yu takes this centipede, goes to Yuling Mountain and comes into contact with the black centipede in someone's hand, he can prove that Su Yu is from the sect and performs a specific mission.
"Thank you, senior." Su Yu cupped his hands and left the sect with a few people.
Before leaving, Su Yu looked back at the rickety old man, with a glint in his eyes.
After Su Yu had gone away, the rickety old man shook his sleeves and a bee flew out, drawing a line in the air and heading straight for the trapped fairy forest.
Yuling Mountain is five days' journey from the outer gate and is located deep in the Quexian Forest.
There were many dangers along the way, but they were traveling with a disciple of the Inner Sect God Master and four demons, and Zixuan secretly.
As long as the active monsters in the mountains and forests have eyes, they will not collide with them, and the journey will be safe and worry-free.
"Junior brother Su, your battle is not small. The four demons, oh, no, including yourself, are the five demons." Xue Qi came over, the alluring fragrance hit her nostrils, a pair of bright red phoenix eyes, smiling.
Looking at Su Yu.
Su Yu subconsciously kept a little distance and said instead: "Senior Sister Xueqi is far more powerful than the five of us, so how can we talk about a battle?"
As he spoke, Su Yu groped his chin and said, "Senior sister, I'm very curious, why do you have to go to Yuling Mountain? With your status, you don't seem to care about ten or twenty thousand meritorious deeds, right?"
Xue Qi smiled and narrowed her eyes: "Want to know? As long as you pay enough, senior sister will tell you."
Su Yu shrugged, having a deep understanding of this woman's evil intentions, so he naturally stopped answering.
"Hmph, you coquettish fox, pretending to be mysterious, trying to seduce our Yuxian, there's no way!" Tian Renyao flew over, inserted himself between the two, held his hand on Su Yu's arm, and said coquettishly.
Su Yu felt a chill all over his body and cleverly avoided Tian Renyao's grasp.
Tian Renyao didn't take it seriously. Instead, he came close to her with a smile on his face: "Yuxian, don't pay attention to that little vixen. Whatever you want to know, I will tell you."
Su Yu's goosebumps fell all over the floor. He hurriedly avoided it and unconsciously walked around to Bing Wuxin's side.
Tian Renyao did not give up and continued to catch up.
"That's enough, let's go on our way in peace." Bing Wuxin said expressionlessly.
"Ahem, junior brother, you don't know something. Something happened in Yuling Mountain recently. Some inner disciples got the news and tried to find a way to go there." Bai Shanshan coughed, and as expected, a column of blood spurted out.
Su Yu's heart tightened: "Situation? Please enlighten me, senior brother."
"Don't take it seriously. In fact, this matter has spread throughout the inner sect." Bai Shanshan's pale face became slightly serious: "It is said that ghosts have been causing trouble in Yuling Mountain in the past six months. There are often disciples performing tasks and monsters raised.
Missing, no body left."
"Ninety-nine percent of those who can perform tasks in Yuling Mountain are inner sect disciples, so the inner sect has already spread the word, and only the outer sect knows nothing about it." Bai Shanshan said: "Many forces in the inner sect are suspicious of each other, and they think it is
They are attacking each other, so they each send investigators to sneak in and investigate secretly. This Senior Sister Xueqi should be the investigator sent by her power."
Hearing this, Su Yu's eyebrows relaxed slightly. At first he thought it was Shao Yueming's conspiracy, but since it started half a year ago, there was obviously something abnormal.
Although Bai Shanshan didn't say it explicitly, Su Yu could hear the implication.
The missing ones are all inner disciples. Among the inner disciples, there are quite a few powerful ones.
Even the God Lord has disappeared and his body has not been found. This matter is not trivial.
However, if soldiers come to block it and water comes to cover it, Su Yu may not be afraid of ghosts and evil spirits.
There was no words to say all the way, and everyone kept walking for five days, and finally arrived at a wonderful place.
There are a series of mountains, one after another, like overlapping waves, spreading to the end of the sky, giving people a sense of depression and dullness.
In addition, the aura of this place is special, so you can always feel a vague and cold air flow, always swirling around.
Looking at the mountains below, they are all dark green, giving people a gloomy feeling.
"This used to be the place where humans and ghosts fought decisively. Many corpses of ghosts were buried under the mountains. A hundred years ago, this place was always a barren land filled with ghosts. It wasn't until decades ago that the ghosts gradually dissipated and I exposed them.
The Blood Palace was developed, but due to centuries of ghostly aura, this place is somewhat ghostly." Bai Shanshan explained, seeming to know the place very well.
Su Yu glanced below and saw the presence of Zixuan. He did not dare to use his soul eyes to explore the depths of the underground, and followed them into the depths of the infinite dark green mountains.
I don’t know how many miles I flew, but suddenly, a plain full of greenery and refreshing aura suddenly appeared in front of me.
Looking from above, it looks like a round jade ring floating in the sea among the endless overlapping waves.
"This is the Yuling Villa opened by our Scarlet Blood Palace. We dug out a hundred mountains to create the villa. There are a large number of precious spiritual objects planted near the villa. Therefore, there are many decision-makers from the sect guarding it. Please remember not to cause trouble.
, abide by the rules here, otherwise, the strong guard will be qualified to kill first and then report!" Bai Shanshan warned with an unusually serious look.
The group of people nodded and flew down to the plain.
Before it fell, a group of nine people flew over quickly.
The leader is a powerful divine master, and his position here is just that of the captain of a patrol team.
"Who?" the squad leader scolded.
Without saying a word, Su Yu took out the white species of the black and white ice centipede.
Seeing this, the captain's expression calmed down slightly: "Okay, come with me and meet the owner of the village."
With the team seemingly leading the way but actually monitoring, Su Yu and others arrived at the villa.
As soon as he entered the villa, Su Yu immediately noticed that no less than ten eyes of the God Lord were scanning his body.
Under close surveillance, Su Yu and others entered a side hall.
"You guys stay here, the owner of the village will be here later." After the team leader finished speaking, he immediately went to inform the owner of the village.
Not long after, a majestic-looking middle-aged man with a purple gold crown walked over, followed by nine elders with different cultivation levels.
"See Mr. Zhang." Xue Qi poked Su Yu's arm and saluted.
Su Yu and the others saluted one after another: "I have met Master Zhang."
However, just as he lowered his head, a gentle force helped a group of people up.
Looking up, I saw the right foot of the middle-aged Zi Jinguan slowly lowering it!
By lifting his feet, he can control the power of gentleness and support everyone. His control of strength is astonishing.
When it comes to sensing cultivation, Su Yu only has four words, which are unfathomable.
Just like the little palace master of the empty cicada at the outer gate, it is like an abyss that is difficult to detect clearly.
Coupled with the nine early to mid-stage God Lord elders around him, this lineup alone is comparable to a quarter of the outer sect's strength.
Especially with Master Zhang in charge, the protective power here is terrifying.
Even the other sixteen sects will find it difficult to compete with Yuling Villa unless they use all their sect strength.
"No need to be polite. You are all the leaders of the outer sect. Sooner or later, you will be your peers. There is no need to be more polite." Zhang Zhuangzhu was extremely polite and paid special attention to Su Yu and others.
As Su Yu ranks first in the outer sect's assessment, his future achievements will be limitless.
The four demons brought here are all ninth-grade flying immortals, and they are only one step away from becoming the God Lord.
Even, according to legend, they are suppressing their cultivation, just waiting for a certain opportunity, otherwise they would already be gods.
"Master Zhang, this is our token." Su Yu took out the white centipede and handed it over.
Zhang Zhuangzhu's eyes fell on Su Yu.
For a moment, Su Yu felt like his whole body was being seen through, and he was shocked.
So strong!
Su Yu only had this feeling in his heart. Except for the old monster Wanxiang, no one had ever given Su Yu such a feeling of oppression. Not even the Master of Kongchan Palace was so powerful.
"That's right. I heard that you reached the fiftieth floor when you first tried to leap over the Dragon Gate. Now that you see it, you are indeed born with a strange phenomenon." Zhang Zhuangzhu said.
However, Su Yu understood clearly that the other party meant that his appearance was so old and that it was an anomaly.
"Master Zhang deserves the award, this junior is just lucky." Su Yu said modestly.
Master Zhang chuckled and shook his head: "Haha, there is no room for luck when the fish leaps over the dragon's gate. Your achievements in the future will not be low."
With that said, Zhang Zhuangzhu took the white species, glanced at it, and took out a black centipede in front of everyone.
When the two come into contact, both centipedes emit rainbow-like light.
"They are black and white ice centipedes born from the same egg. The tokens are true." Zhang Zhuangzhu said: "This village owner will arrange for you to open up wasteland, Jiu'an, bring the map."
A bald old man in the middle stage of the Divine Lord, who was mostly a monk, with a kind face and kind eyes, took out an ancient scroll from his sleeve and slowly unfolded it in front of everyone.
It was exactly the topographic map Su Yu saw from the sky.
"Jiu'an, leave it to them to decide which area is most suitable for reclamation in the near future. It's not easy for the outer disciples to come here. They must find a better area." Master Zhang took special care of them.
Jiu'an glanced around and landed on the westernmost area.
"Master, the soil near Shibalian Mountain is fertile and very loose, suitable for cultivation by outer disciples. The rest of the wasteland has hard geology, and it requires the master's training to break through the hard soil underground." Jiu'an said.
Zhang Zhuangzhu looked at Su Yu and the others: "The Eighteen Mountains will be reclaimed by you. You only have three days. How much area you can reclaim depends on your hard work. The merits you gain in the end are directly related to the reclamation."
The area is linked, of course, if important treasures are unearthed, they can also be exchanged for success medals."
Everyone readily accepted this.
"Okay, here is the map. Take it. There is a prepared camp in Shibalian Mountain with all the supplies and resting places. You can rush there. By the way, there is a new group of people arriving there.
Disciples, you are also on a reclamation mission, so you must get along well with each other." Zhang Zhuangzhu said.
Su Yu and others clasped their fists in thanks and respectfully sent Master Zhang off.
Tian Renyao looked at Zhang Zhuangzhu's leaving figure, his eyes were full of color, and he said delicately: "Oh, Zhang Zhuangzhu is so handsome, it makes the slave family's heart skip a beat."
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Su Yu from the corner of his eye and replied shyly: "Of course, the most masculine person is our Yuxian. No one can compare with her."
Su Yu felt a chill. He didn't understand why Tian Renyao was interested in him.
With his old body and appearance, he is far less attractive than those handsome young men.
"Oh, this Zhang Zhuang seems to be pretty good." Gongsun Wuxie's eyes rolled darkly: "But, wouldn't he be too nice to us?"
As Dongxie and the little ancestor who manipulated people, she was very suspicious.
"There is indeed a problem." Suddenly, Xue Qi, who had never raised her eyebrows, said in a deep voice.
Bai Shanshan lowered his head in thought, and his face gradually became solemn: "Yes, there is indeed a problem."
The two looked at each other and exchanged opinions. Then Bai Shanshan turned to look at Su Yu and said seriously: "I think we may have to be careful. The Eighteen Mountains arranged for us by Zhuang Zhuang is not a kind place.
, but the most dangerous area in the past six months!"
Su Yu raised his eyebrows slightly and said thoughtfully: "You mean, many people have disappeared in Shibalian Mountain in the past six months?"
Bai Shanshan nodded, then shook his head slowly: "Not many, all the missing people disappeared in the Eighteen Mountains! The warriors who have been stationed here for a long time are not willing to step into the Eighteen Mountains!!"
