"My lips are a little swell" The girl flew down all the way to the mission hall while muttering silently.
LianHua sat on her flying lotus flower, while she was looking in a mirror in her right hand. The red lips were bulging liked she was using plastic sugary and her tongue hurt when she got up in this morning.
She took out an ointment and rubbed against her lips. A while later, the lips returned to normal.
Was she sick? She then shook her head, as a practitioner, it's difficult to get sick.
After she had a warm breakfast with Shenling Lianxue, she bid farewell to him. Shenling Lianxue gave her many magical items and spirit stones.
She wanted to refuse and tell him that, she had many spiritual stones. But he didn't listen to her, so she could only helplessly accept his gifts.
As for her unreliable master, Shangguang Feling, she didn't see any of his shadow. Well, never mind, she will bring his lover (Lixin) back to him in a healthy way and let the two unite.
Along the way, there were countless disciples flying and walking along the sides of the road.
There is the area where you can fly, and some area in the sect are forbidden to fly, only allow to walk.
LianHua put a way to her flying lotus, and walked inside the mission hall. There are many outer and inner disciples here coming in and outside to take the task, the scene is very lively. As for the core-disciples, she didn't see any of them.
Only disciples who reach foundation building period can take the task here and go outside the sect to completing task.
"I heard that if you could catch the level 5 high-rank flaming leopard , you could get a very rich reward from the sect" an outer disciple talked to his friend enthusiastically.
(level 5 high-rank beast's strength equal to the practitioners at the beginning of building foundation period or even stronger)
"What is the reward" another male disciple asked interestingly.
"Come look at this!" the three men walked over the wooden task board. One man pointed to the paper scroll on the big board.
"Five hundred of medium grade spiritual stones, 6 bottles of low-rank recovering spiritual-power pill, 3 bottles of dan pill and a middle-grade low -rank weapon" the man was surprised. This reward is very rich for the outer disciples like them.
"We are all at the beginning of foundation period, I think we could complete this task" The man thought for a moment. The three men nodded. It's a little difficult for them, but the reward is rich, so they have to do it.
Challenging cross-level is not easy, especially the spiritual power of the beast is stronger than human, but since they were a team, they could do it.
LianHua turned her head to the other team member.
"Let's take this mission, we will go to the Floating mountain" an inner-disciple
woman took a scroll from the board and handed it to her friends to see.
There were ten people on her team. Which seven of them are at the peak of the building foundation period and the other three, are at the beginning of Jiadan period.
"Collecting two hundred of different high-grade spiritual plants, the time limited is one year" one of her teammates read the letters on the scroll.
"The reward is seven-hundred thousand of high grade spiritual stones, ten bottles of washing marrow pills and ten bottles of Dan pills, twenty bottles of strength recovering pill."
Dan pills had the effect of introducing spiritual aura in to the body faster than people's current strength.
"Good , let's prepare for the task! We had to spend at least a month to reach the Floating Mountain." they had to prepare something to protect them . Floating Mountain is very dangerous, there were countless beasts and danger there.
LianHua was observing everyone, some people also noticed her.
"Who is that girl?"
"What is that girl doing here?" A disciple asked his friend.
" So, what are you doing here ?" his friend gave him the white eyes.
" ….." Of course, he came here to take the task scroll !!! But that doll looked so small, It's a little unbelievable that she could come here.
"So young, and she reached the middle-step of foundation building?" They looked surprised. Even though the girl looked tall, she seemed to only around 12 years old.
LianHua already showed her cultivation to the middle of foundation period, while her real strength is the middle of Jiedan period.
That day in the cave, when Lixin released the intense pressure on her, she felt that her realm was loosened, so she closed down to advance.
Fortunately, the time in space is enough for her. Since she advanced to Jiedan, a day outside is 5 years inside the space.
"Don't you know her? She is the senior Lianxue's little sister" an inner-disciple was speechless.
"Really ?? No wonder! Her talent is extraordinary" They nodded in understanding. Senior Lianxue's talent is well-known in the sect. Everyone respects and worships him very much.
LianHua had been putting on the paralyzed face for the whole time. But she felt very helpless. Fortunately, they didn't know that she was the ancestor's apprentice or else, they would be shocked to drop their chin.
She didn't want to be famous at all. She always wants to remain low-key. Fortunately, she never came out of the peach blossom peak, most people didn't know her.
LianHua walked to the wooden task board, everyone made a way for her because they wanted to see which task she will take.
LianHua looked at the low-level task board for a while, then she went to the highest-level task board.
She tried to find the task which could take a long time to complete.
"Hunt down the phoenix tail crest serpent, limit time:unknown"
Reward : Fifty thousand best -grade spirit stones, twenty bottles of level 5 high-grade strength recovering elixir, a high-grade weapon, and one high-grade moon plant.
LianHua read silently in her mind. What catches her eyes most is the high-grade moon plant. This plant happened to be one of the important materials for refining the poison.
The reward is the okay because this task is very difficult. She could see, not many people could complete this task.
Firstly, the phoenix tail crest serpent is a magic-beast! Which strength is stronger than people in the middle of Jiedan period. Its speed is extremely fast, almost liked teleportation.
Secondly, the Moon plants is a kind of high grade spiritual plant. It only grew in the place where there was enough moon light that could provide the moon aura to it, so the plant could survive.
The sect is willing to put forward this reward, meaning that the level of this beast is not low, it might be higher than she expected.
Thirdly, the phoenix tail crest serpent lived in the Wasteland where countless high rank and magic beasts existed there! There were even powerful monsters! Normal practitioners would not go there.
Fourth, to go to the Wasteland, without enough strength, going to that place is liked to seek death. Even people at the peak of Jiedan period or higher didn't dare to go there alone.
For others, they will not choose this dangerous task, but for LianHua, this task seemed like a well-made for her. She happened to go to Wasteland to find the herbal materials for curing Lixin's poison, and she could practice there as well. There were many beasts to battle with .
She thought excitedly. She can finally get out of the sect. How could she not enjoy her time.
"....." the men in space are voiceless.
Lianhua seemed to like dangerous place .....
On the contrary, for LianHua, the more dangerous a place is, the richer resources she might find.
Of course, she was not stupid to throw her life away. She had her plan.
She took the scroll and went to the teacher's desk.
" ….. " Everyone only felt flabbergasted. They saw the white-hair girl took that difficult task.
Her face didn't even frown. They wanted to remind her, but she walked too fast. In a flashed, she stood in front of teachers' desk.
"She is seeking death!"
"Her strength is only at the foundation period, how dare she take that task?"
"She underestimated herself!"
"Should we remind her?"
"I don't think Senior brother Lianxue's sister will be impulsive. Maybe she has her own plan?" A man disciple frowned.
"Maybe you're right, no one would be stupid to seek death." A man nodded as he was touching his chin.
"Uhm make sense!"
Everyone was in deep thought. Some people shook their head , some sighed and some was disdain of her. Some shook their head and glanced at the one who disdain her.
But LianHua didn't give them a chance to stop her.
"Disciple has seen the teachers." she arched her hand as she arrived in front of the teachers.
"Girl, which task you take?" a teacher smiled. He knew her. She was the ancestor's apprentice. Not many people knew her, but that day, they witnessed the scene.
"Disciple, take this task" She handed a scroll embroidered with white almost golden-gem color on it.
The gem color represents the difficulty of the quests.
Start from : Bronze, silver, platinum, white, golden, purple, and diamond.
This task carved with white gem, but the color is almost liked golden-colored which means only for disciples in jiedan period or higher could do it.
"This … little girl, this task is not suitable for you" one of the teachers advised her.
If something happened to the doll, his couldn't guarantee his life!
The teacher was shivering, thinking of the that man's temper.
"Please ask the teacher to register this for disciple" She asked again.
She knew, she hided her cultivation, no wonder they didn't dare to let her go. But she had to go no matter what!
" This …." The teachers looked at each other. They were hesitated! If they allow her to take the task, when something happens to her, they will accompany her.
If they didn't allow her to take this task, what if she complains about them to the ancestor?
"Don't worry, the master has given permission to the disciple." she handed them a token.
Seeing the token, the elders open their eyes widely.
"Sighed, you go girl" One of the teachers hurried to record her name and her task on the crystal jade slip.
" Disciple retreat first" seeing their expression, she was puzzled, but she didn't ask much .
Looking at the girl disappearing back, the teachers wiped their sweat and looked at each other.
That token shaped like a rosette flower. It was made from phoenix jade stone, looked mysterious and exquisite.
The token's colored was purple, carved with complex ancient patterns shaped like leaf and vine. There was a crystal gem shaped liked ancient symbol shining in the middle of the token.
That token was only second to the patriarch in sect, which means whenever they saw the token, it means that someone is representing the the ancestor who is more powerful than anyone else.
They looked at each other in shocked.
LianHua was heading toward the teleportation hall in the sect. To be able to leave the sect, one must pay some spirit stones to the guards in the hall and then, the guards will activate the teleportation array to send disciples to Chuanxong city.
NOTE: I was thinking of changing my novel title to 'Watch my road to immortality, as a passerby'
So take a note at this.
