Endless Road: Asura's Extraordinary Journey

Chapter 34 Mission

After nearly a whole day of practicing the Ten Thousand Destruction Technique, Gu Ling finally succeeded. The attack was more powerful than he expected. The sickle beam he just sent out was far more powerful than the melee attack of the Mountain Crush Sword.

"Now I no longer have to perform suicidal attacks with the Mountain Sword and my scythe!"Gu Ling said with a smile."The only problem is that this attack used up a lot of my energy. I can only use it a few more times before I regain my energy.

Although this attack was quite costly, Gu Ling didn't care. The greater the consumption, the stronger the attack power

"I have the Mountain-Shattering Sword, the Five-Step Movement Technique, and now I have the Scythe of All Destruction. My fighting ability has been growing rapidly."

Gu Ling sat down to recover for an hour, and then returned to the city gate of the kingdom.

He walked directly to the city gate without queuing, showed the entry certificate to the guard and was allowed to enter the kingdom again.

"There is still one day left before the meeting. I should go back to the inn to practice. Every second of practice brings me closer to becoming powerful enough to participate in the battle of the realms. Gu Ling thought with a determined expression on his face.

Gu Ling practiced until late at night before going to bed. He woke up early in the morning and started practicing again before going out to release the task.

Gu Ling slowly opened his eyes."I can It feels like the bottleneck is getting weaker and weaker. After one or two more battles, I should be able to advance to the middle stage of the fog."

Gu Ling is anxiously waiting to be promoted to the middle stage of Mist Creation. By then, his Qi attack will be stronger, and he also wants to know whether he can improve his cultivation level again. He keeps trying to absorb more blood essence, but He was never able to do what he wanted, which made him very distressed.

Gu Ling went downstairs and ordered breakfast. After eating, he set off for the meeting place. The meeting place was next to the main road outside the city wall.

Gu Ling walked for a while before leaving the city wall. He left A few minutes later, he spotted a group of people gathering on the roadside

"So that's it. Gu Ling thought to himself that there were about ten people in this group waiting, and they were all at least mid-stage practitioners of the fog-making realm. He even found a practitioner in the late-stage fog-making realm—a white-haired, long-lasting practitioner. An old man with a big beard. Most of the other cultivators were in their twenties and thirties.

When Gu Ling approached the group, one of the cultivators turned around and looked at him. There was a joking expression on the man's face. smile

"who is this? A little kid wants to join us?"Several other people looked at Gu Ling and laughed at this comment.

"Hey, he's probably just lost. There's no way this kid thinks he's strong enough to pull this off, right?"Another person replied.

Gu Ling stood in front of the group of people, looking over them, but said nothing. The person who spoke first walked towards Gu Ling and stood condescendingly in front of him. This man was very tall and looked He looks about thirty years old. He has a shaved head and his face is covered with pockmarks.

"Boy, what are you doing here? Lost?"The man asked, with a confused look on his face.

Gu Ling frowned and looked at the man. Just as he hesitated whether to respond, another team member walked up to Gu Ling and spoke.

"Come on, he's just a little boy, there's no need to bully him. Besides, you should have noticed that his cultivation level is not low. Even though he is in the early stage of the fog-making realm, do you really think you are qualified to point fingers at a boy who is half your age but almost as strong as you?"

Facing the newcomer's question, the troublesome man did not refute. He spat on the ground, glared at Gu Ling, and then turned back to his companions

"Ignore him," the new man said. He stretched out his hand to shake Gu Ling's hand."By the way, my name is Lei Ting. And you?"

"Gu Ling. Nice to meet you. Lei

Ting smiled at Gu Ling and asked,"Although our companion is a bit of a jerk, what he said is not completely unreasonable." This mission requires an intermediate fog-making practitioner. Do you think you can do it?"

"Don't worry, I'll be fine. Gu Ling responded with a smile. His first impression of Lei Ting was very good, so his attitude was quite friendly. One of Gu Ling's life creeds is: treat others with sincerity, and others will treat me with sincerity.

"All right. But remember, if anything happens, I will protect you. Lei Ting winked at Gu Ling. Gu Ling responded with a smile but did not answer.

A few minutes later, a carriage stopped in front of everyone. A man jumped out of the car. He was wearing elegant business attire, leaving Wearing a delicate mustache. He looked at everyone for a while and nodded with satisfaction.

"Gentlemen, I am very pleased to see so many brave souls signing up. As mentioned in the notice, I need a group of intermediate fog-making practitioners to assist me in completing this task. But please note that this mission involves certain risks, and those who are unwilling to take risks can leave now."

Everyone looked at each other, but no one chose to leave.

"Great, looks like I have some brave company……"The man was about to continue speaking when he noticed Gu Ling in the team.

"What is a child doing here?" He asked.

Just when Gu Ling was about to respond, Lei Ting spoke first,"Don't worry, I will vouch for him. He will not be a stumbling block to this mission."Gu Ling looked at Lei Ting in surprise, not expecting that he would defend himself. Lei Ting smiled at Gu Ling, winked, and whispered:"Don't worry, I support you."

The bearded man pondered for a moment and then nodded."Very good. The two of you will be on this mission together. If this child causes you any trouble, I will deduct both of your fees."

"So, let’s get down to business. As far as I know, this is an escort mission. But I'm telling you, that's a lie."

Gu Ling narrowed his eyes and listened silently to the man's words without making any comments.

The man paused, as if observing everyone's reaction, and then spoke again:"Due to some legal reasons, I can't tell you directly. Your real mission. If anyone has concerns about illegal behavior, it's not too late to leave now."

Everyone looked at each other again, wondering if anyone was willing to give up this task. However, no one chose to leave.

Seeing that no one chose to leave, the man breathed a sigh of relief."Okay, okay. Well, let me tell you the truth. The real mission is to sneak into Lord Romes' mansion and steal an item from him."

Gu Ling's eyebrows raised slightly. He never expected that the real mission was related to Lord Romes.

"It seems that there is some kind of indissoluble bond between us," Gu Ling thought to himself, with a smile on his face.
