Extraordinary Ring

Chapter 43 Accepting the Task

The market is several times larger than that of Hedong City, so there are many more people setting up stalls here. Li Huai scanned the life capture and found more than ten cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage, and even a few who were hard to tell, presumably they were in the Out-of-Body stage. Li Huai twitched twice in his heart with hatred, "There are actually people in the Out-of-Body stage here?"

What is the most conspicuous thing in the market? Of course, it is the magnificent building standing in the center of the market, with a large flow of people coming and going, and above the hall there are four large characters of the Cultivation Alliance with a fairy-like aura.

"Is that the branch of the Cultivation Alliance? If a branch is built so well, then isn't it the headquarters?" Li Huai slandered in his heart and began to wander around the market. In such a large market, he should be able to find one or two materials he needs. Li Huai needs four materials: gilded sand, herb leaves, agarwood, and purple gold stone. He has already bought gilded sand in the market in Hedong City, and now he only needs the other three.

The vendors standing in front of the stalls shouting and the cultivators bargaining with them, this market looks very lively. Li Huai's eyes are daring, paying attention to whether there are materials he needs. Formations are a thing that burns money. If you want to go far in the field of formations, the materials and Yuanshi required are a huge amount. Therefore, there are very few formation masters in the cultivation world, but there are many cultivators who know a little about formations.

The formation is divided into four levels: elementary, intermediate, advanced, and immortal. Each level is divided into nine sections. For example, the fourth master who taught Li Huai the formation was at the elementary level of the ninth section, which was considered a small master in the formation. After half a year of study and contemplation, Li Huai barely reached the standard of the elementary level of the fifth section. This made the fourth elder ecstatic. After all, he had studied the formation for hundreds of years and reached the ninth section, while Li Huai had only studied the formation for a few months, and only used one-seventh of his energy to learn it. At that time, he had the idea of ​​letting Li Huai only learn his formation, and then ran to negotiate with the six brothers. Of course, he was severely rejected, because Li Huai's talent in other fields was not inferior to the formation. From then on, the fourth elder did not regard Li Huai as a human being, but as a freak.

Walking in the market, Li Huai's eyes suddenly lit up, because he found another material he needed, agarwood, so he hurried over.

The agarwood that Li Huai found was about one meter long, with white bark. Generally, agarwood is priced by age. The older the age, the higher the price. For white agarwood like this, the age is about 50-80 years old. Fortunately, the requirements for the formation flags that Li Huai refined were not too high.

"Boss, how much is your agarwood?"

The boss was a middle-aged woman, but her cultivation had reached the late stage of Jindan. "23 pieces of low-grade Yuanshi. If you pay with medium-grade Yuanshi, two pieces will do!"

"Okay! I want it!" Li Huai threw out two medium-grade Yuanshi, and then put the agarwood into the ring space.

"Hey, you are so unreasonable. We were the first to get this agarwood! How can you buy it?" Li Huai wanted to turn around and leave, but an angry girl's voice came from the side. He came to the stall and found two girls standing there. The older one was bargaining with the boss, and the younger one stopped Li Huai. There are no ugly women in the world of cultivation. This is true. Wherever you go? The female cultivators you see are all beautiful, but the world of cultivation values ​​temperament and strength rather than appearance.

One of the two women is in the late Jindan stage and the other is in the early Jindan stage. They are also the best in the upper Jindan stage.

"Two Taoist friends, this is your fault. You have been looking at this agarwood for so long, and you didn't say you wanted to buy it. Why can't this Taoist buy it?" Li Huai didn't say anything, but the stall owner helped him refute the other party.

Li Huai smiled slightly, "You two, I don't know if this is what you want to buy, but this agarwood is also very useful to me. I'm sorry I can't give it to you two. I'll take my leave first!"

There is no need to entangle with them, so Li Huai turned around and left. Although agarwood is not a precious material, the environment in which it grows is relatively dangerous, and the price is not high, so few cultivators risk their lives to collect it. That's why agarwood is relatively rare in the market. Li Huai wants to use it to refine flagpoles, so he can't give it to the two women.

Two of the four materials have been found, and the remaining two are missing. The formation flag is also divided into two parts. Li Huai will refine the formation pole first. Refining the formation flag is to engrave the formation pattern on the formation flag, and then as long as the true essence is injected, the formation inside can be activated.

Purple gold stone and lily of the valley are not high-end materials. Li Huai should be able to find these two materials. As expected, when he looked at all the stalls, he finally found lily of the valley, but the whereabouts of purple gold stone was still unknown. After spending a medium-grade Yuanshi to buy enough lily of the valley, Li Huai planned to go to the Cultivation Alliance to accept the mission. It was said that there was a place called Nanhuang in the south of Donglan Continent, where there were many monsters and dangers, but it was regarded as a treasure land by the cultivation world. It was precisely because of the many monsters here that the disciples of the cultivation world could go here to kill the monsters and hunt for their inner elixir, because the monsters' inner elixir and flesh and bones were some rare materials for refining tools and elixirs. Even a lot of monster meat was very delicious, and was sold at high prices by major restaurants in the cultivation world.

As soon as he walked into the branch of the Cultivation Alliance, Li Huai discovered that there were more people inside than outside. Of course, their cultivation levels were also uneven. The weakest ones were those in the early stage of the Golden Elixir, and the strongest ones were Li Huai Kan. Those who are not in the out-of-body stage of cultivation.

After standing there and looking at it for a while, Li Huai understood that there were six levels of tasks marked on some windows: elementary, intermediate, advanced, human level, earth level, and heaven level.

The primary, intermediate, and two windows have the most people who accept and return tasks, but there are only a few high-level people. As for the human level, the earth level, and the heaven level, there is no one.

According to Mo Dong's memory, cultivators in the Golden Core stage can only accept elementary tasks, and intermediate tasks are acceptable to those in the Nascent Soul stage, or those who form a team, and the number of people in the team must be at least five.

There were also many people on the other side of the hall, because there were acceptable tasks and task rewards displayed there. Li Huai walked over as soon as his heart moved.

"Look, senior sister, I killed the eighth-level monster giant ape and received 100 inner elixirs as a mission reward: 20 middle-grade Yuan stones. This mission is good, let's take it!"

The corners of Li Huai's mouth turned up slightly. It was true that "enemies met on a narrow road". During the investigation mission, two women came into Li Huai's eyes. They were offended by Li Huai's preemptive purchase of agarwood.

Li Huai didn't want to meet them face to face. Anyway, the task bar was so wide that it wasn't too big, so he walked towards the other side, but the girl seemed to sense it. When she turned around, she saw Li Huai's back: "Senior Sister Look, that guy is the one who stole our agarwood!"

"Junior sister Xue Yi, don't talk nonsense. He also bought it with Yuanshi and didn't steal it from us!" Senior sister quickly stopped the little junior sister from talking nonsense.

"Hmph, if it weren't for him, the boss would have sold the agarwood to us for 19 low-grade Yuan stones!" Xia Xueyi pouted with dissatisfaction.

"Okay, don't be angry. This is just a small matter. Let's think about which mission we should take?" A trace of helplessness flashed in the senior sister's eyes. The younger junior sister Xia Xueyi is still young. It is her first time to go out to the mountains to experience. As a senior sister, she It's quite troublesome.

Xia Xueyi glared at Li Huai's back fiercely before giving up.

Li Huai smiled bitterly in his heart, "As for that, why don't you just buy a piece of agarwood first? You hate me so much!"

There are many primary tasks on the task bar, such as slaying monsters, finding herbs, exploring paths, and even delivering messages. Of course, the value of each task is also different. Among all tasks, only slaying monsters is the most important. It's cost-effective, because after completing the task, you only need to hand over part of the monster's body, such as fur, horns, inner elixirs, etc., and then the rest can be sold.

Li Huai glanced through the rows of tasks and task rewards, and finally locked on three tasks:

The first one is to search for three hundred-year-old purple water chestnuts. The reward for the task is 10 medium-grade Yuan stones. Purple water chestnuts are a kind of elixir that can be used to refine Zifu Dan. Zifu Dan is the best way to repair Yuan stones. elixir, but one Zifu Dan can be sold for 10 middle-grade Yuan stones, and three purple water chestnuts can be sold at least Refined 10 Zifu Pills, so alchemy is a hugely profitable industry. However, many people can only look forward to this hugely profitable industry. The first is that both alchemy cultivators and formation cultivators require a lot of materials to practice. In the case of Li Huai The current ability cannot refine high-level elixirs like Zifu Dan.

The second task is to kill the stone monster and obtain ten stone monster inner elixirs. The task reward is higher than finding the purple water chestnut, 15 fast and medium-grade yuan stones. The stone monster is a special kind of monster between life and non-life. , because their body surface is made of hard rock, their defense is strong and their attack power is strong, Their weakness is their slow movement speed, but one problem is that they are monsters that live in groups. Killing one stone monster will often attract dozens or even hundreds of monsters, so the risk factor of this mission is relatively high, and it is not Every stone monster has an inner elixir in its body. This depends on luck!

The third task is to slay the monster ape and obtain one hundred inner elixirs. The task reward is 20 mid-grade Yuan stones. The monkey is also a gregarious monster and has strong flexibility, but against Li Huai, a late-stage golden elixir. For experts, it's nothing.

After Yiyi's analysis, Li Huai decided to take on the third mission, because the location of the third mission was in the southern wasteland. In addition to completing the mission, he could also hunt monsters and obtain materials. He happened to know that there was a kind of grade The blood of a low-level demon fox is the best spiritual fluid for carving formation patterns.

After confirming to accept the task, Li Huai walked to the task window and queued up to take the task. Just as he stood firm, the familiar voice came from behind him again, "Senior sister, that annoying guy actually stood in front of us!" After discussion, the two women planned to take the task. The task is to kill the giant ape, so go to the task window to accept the task.

ps: This chapter is a little late, sorry, mainly because I found a book last night and read it very late without realizing it. It was past ten o'clock when I woke up today!
