Data cultivation, I observe immortality in the five elements

Chapter 15 Escort Mission

half year later.

The northern forests of South Vietnam.

The sun was shining brightly, and four carriages were speeding along. In the carriage at the back sat a young man wearing a Taoist robe.

There is a standard magic sword beside him, and the Taoist robe on his body is engraved with the appearance of a palace.

This is the symbol of Five Elements Concept.

The young man's eyes are bright and clear, and his face is delicate. Although he is not outstanding, he has a shy smile that makes it easy for people to like him.

This young man is none other than Luo Yan from Five Elements Temple.

He looked at the scenery outside the horse window calmly, with curiosity in his eyes.

From the front carriage, a voice complained:

"It's so boring, Old Man Zhang, no wonder your task has been pending in the General Affairs Hall for more than half a month without anyone taking it.

Not only is the road to a neighboring country far, the carriage is so bumpy that it’s impossible to meditate!

The most important thing is that the reward you give is too low. "

"Cough cough."

Hearing this, an old man's honest and dry laughter came from the carriage in the middle, which was quite embarrassing.

Even though the carriage ran relatively fast, the people in the carriage were all immortal cultivators, and long-distance conversation was just a small skill in the use of spiritual power.

Luo Yan has been performing this Class C escort mission for almost a month.

Even so, there is still more than half the journey to go.

The carriage was not moving very fast, only covering three hundred miles a day. It had to stop and rest every three hours, otherwise it would affect the rest of the journey.

This kind of horse has a trace of monster blood in its body. Compared with ordinary horses, its speed is not much improved, but its endurance is much better.

It can run continuously for six hours without stopping.

It is often used by low-level monks to travel long distances.

Before their cultivation reaches the late stage of Qi refining, few Qi refining monks can fly with weapons.

Even monks who have reached the late stage of Qi refining will not be able to fly through the imperial weapon for a long time.

Only those monks who have reached the foundation-building stage will gradually get rid of dependence on secular means of transportation.

The old man who just spoke is also a cultivator, but his Qi refining cultivation level is only at the second level. He said it was because he had been injured before, so his cultivation level has regressed to this point.

He is the patriarch of a small family in Ji State.

At the same time, he also opened a small shop to run the talisman business. This time he came to the Five Elements Temple to purchase goods.

Despite the fact that the old patriarch acted submissively in front of them and always had a flattering smile on his face, in fact, in the secular world, the old patriarch was also a master of truth.

After all, there are only a few people who are qualified to practice.

There were four people taking on this task, including Luo Yan himself.

In addition to the one at the front of the carriage, there is also a couple on the carriage in the middle.

The man who spoke first was at the fifth level of Qi Refining, and the couple other than him were at the fourth level of Qi Refining.

At the beginning, because Luo Yan's cultivation was only at the third level of Qi Refining, they originally ignored Luo Yan.

Perhaps it was because Luo Yan grew up relatively quickly. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he was only slightly shorter than the average person. Therefore, they subconsciously thought that Luo Yan was of the same age.

In their eyes, it has been seven or eight years since they started practicing, and they have only reached the third level of Qi refining, which is probably what they will do for the rest of their lives.

I don't have much talent, and I don't have the eyesight. When I see these senior brothers and sisters, I don't know how to take the initiative to say hello.

No manners at all.

It's normal to ignore someone.

However, when they learned that Luo Yan was mainly focusing on the formation, delaying his practice, and could set up the spirit gathering formation, his reason was accepted by the other three.

At the same time, he put on a polite fake smile.

After all, the journey to Ji Country is long, and the concentration of spiritual energy in the outside world is not as thick as on Five Elements View Mountain, so the speed of cultivation will be affected to some extent.

It would definitely be much better with the blessing of the Spirit Gathering Array.

The area where Luo Yan and the others are now is an inaccessible wasteland, with ferocious beasts roaming around from time to time.

People without any strength would not dare to walk on such mountain trails.

In addition to wild beasts, there are countless poisonous snakes and fierce insects, and there are also many people who rob homes and homes.

Of course, Luo Yan and the others had not encountered any robbery along the way.

Therefore, except for those traders traveling between the two countries, there is basically no human habitation.

Luo Yan's purpose in accepting this escort mission was because, according to the "Geographical Chronicles of South Vietnam" and "Wuxingguan Insights" in the Sutra Pavilion, it can be known that the sphere of influence of the Five Elements Guan is actually very safe.

It seems that there is a special magic weapon in the Law Enforcement Hall that can instantly locate the death of a disciple.

As long as a sect disciple dies, he will be located by the Law Enforcement Hall, and a pursuit mission will be issued.

This also resulted in few sect disciples getting into trouble in South Vietnam.

After all, it is a practicing holy sect. Even if the sect has a vast territory, the probability of something happening is extremely low.

No one would be so stupid as to deliberately come to a super large group's territory to cause trouble.

In addition, the sect has regulations that require disciples who have not reached the late stage of Qi Refining to perform a certain number of general affairs hall tasks every month.

Through these large and small tasks, he promotes the growth of his disciples.

Only when a person encounters many things will his mind become more mature.

Therefore, the tasks in the General Affairs Hall are actually a large part.

They were all from the Law Enforcement Hall, and were placed in the General Affairs Hall after a special evaluation.

The purpose is to cultivate the abilities of his disciples in certain aspects.

Just like this long-term escort mission that Luo Yan took on, the danger level of the mission was only Level C.

But in fact, if we encounter a very popular task in the future, it will be a very important criterion to judge the number and types of tasks the task recipient has performed.      It's like going out on a demon hunting mission, and a certain demon hunting team is short of people.

When selecting team members, a fellow disciple who has experience in going out to perform missions is compared with a fellow disciple who can only stay in the Sutra Pavilion.

No need to think too much, you already know who to choose.

Coupled with the existence of the Five Elements Temple Law Enforcement Hall, they are all well-known. When faced with provocations from outsiders, they are almost always suppressed forcefully.

This creates a very good internal environment!

This is also the reason why many sect disciples dare to run around even if their cultivation is low.

After all, this is all within the sect's sphere of influence and under the supervision of the Law Enforcement Hall.

If the safety of his disciples cannot be guaranteed even within the territory of his own sect.

The Five Elements Concept is in vain called the super sect of the Southern Region.

The only place where there might be danger in this escort mission is the area near the Ji Country border.

It was the junction of the two sects' forces, and it seemed a little more chaotic.

But Luo Yan had exchanged so many life-saving talismans, and when he saw something was wrong, he immediately ran away.

Thinking about it, it wouldn't be much of a problem to escape.

It's a good time to take a look outside and learn more about the world of cultivation here.

Compared to Luo Yan, the couple in the middle car seemed to be really on a sightseeing trip.

They didn't seem to worry at all about the speed of the carriage.

Only the young man named Lin Lu who spoke at the beginning seemed to really come to contribute points to the mission.

Because it is a long-distance escort mission, although it is generally not dangerous, the mission level is still raised to level C.

The tasks in the General Affairs Hall can be roughly divided into four categories: A, B, C and D.

D-level tasks are hard work, such as planting elixirs, feeding spirit beasts, etc., and there is almost no danger.

The danger level of missions from level C to up increases linearly.

This escort mission shows that it will take about two to three months, and the contribution point reward for a single person is as much as fifty points.

This was enough to give Lin Lu, who lacked contribution points, a chance.

Contribution points are directly determined by the Task Hall of the General Affairs Hall and have nothing to do with the task issuer.

As long as caravans from other places come to Five Elements Temple to do business, and the amount of spiritual stones traded reaches a certain amount, the General Affairs Hall will dispatch escort missions.

However, some missions are too long, so almost all the old disciples who have suffered losses stay away from such escort missions.

So much so that when the General Affairs Hall requested an escort, no one took it for a long time.

So at this time, some task publishers will add additional rewards in the form of spiritual stones.

In the hope that some disciples can take over the escort mission.

After all, if you encounter any danger when you go out, you will lose more than just a few spiritual stones.

It's a pity that Chief Zhang was so tight that the four of them gave him fifty spirit stones, which was only enough to set up the spirit gathering array.

No wonder Lin Lu said something about him.

If Luo Yan hadn't had a few spiritual stones in his pocket, he would have rolled his eyes at this stingy old man.

The escort mission, which was expected to take more than three months in total, only cost fifty spiritual stones to hire four bodyguards.

One is at the fifth level of Qi refining, two are at the fourth level of Qi refining, and one is an array mage with the third level of Qi refining.

No wonder the old patriarch looked embarrassed.

However, as soon as Lin Lu talked about increasing the rewards for tasks, the old patriarch immediately changed to an embarrassed face, did not speak, and just sighed dryly.

It looks very poor.

"Stop the car and get ready to rest!" Lin Lu's voice came from the front.

Four carriages stopped in the shade of a tree. Patriarch Zhang took water from the storage bag to feed the horses, and gave them some aura-rich grass.

"Brother, the scenery here is so beautiful. Let's go for a walk in the mountains." The woman who got out of the car shouted to the man in the carriage with a delicate demeanor like a jade from a small family.

The man who came out later looked at her with a doting look on his face and nodded helplessly.

He could only send an apologetic look in the direction of Luo Yan and the others.

The vegetation on both sides of the road is lush, and the roars of beasts from time to time make the atmosphere of the mountain forest even richer.

Luo Yan sensed the changes in the spiritual power around him. The weak spiritual power made him frown. He took out the formation flag and began to set up the spirit gathering array.

Regarding cultivation, he never slacked off.

"Old man, how long do you think it will be before we get to Ji Country?" Lin Lu's eyes were half closed.

"It will probably take another month. We have to go around the Jueling Mountains first, then pass by the Imperial City and go north." The old patriarch said.

"Where is the Jueling Mountains? Why do we need to take a detour?" Lin Lu asked puzzledly.

"It is a devil's land, without any aura, or in other words, the entire mountain range has no life at all. You can't see a single living creature, and everyone who walks in is dead."

There was a hint of fear in Patriarch Zhang's eyes, and his expression was full of terror.

Lin Lu curled his lips in disdain when he heard this. Just when he was about to ask more questions, there was a wave of magic in the forest.

Luo Yan, who had set up the spirit gathering array, looked at him and calmed down at the same time.

That's the direction the couple left.

"Clan Leader Zhang, please stand in the formation. Before we come back, no matter what happens, you must not leave this formation."

Luo Yan also arranged a small killing array based on the spirit gathering array to stimulate sword energy.

If a foreign enemy breaks in, the sword array will be triggered to attack the intruder, and at the same time, it can be sensed by Luo Yan within a certain distance.

Seeing the Zhang clan elder standing in the formation, Luo Yan and Lin Lu looked at each other and quickly rushed towards the magic wave.
