Volume 1: The Sword Comes from the West Chapter 39 The Last Mission
After getting along with each other for these two days, everyone got to know this junior brother who was just starting out. Although he has not practiced Qi, he is extremely smart and knows the weaknesses of all monsters.
Although this giant python is difficult to deal with, as long as the previous method is followed, with Junior Brother Li responsible for giving guidance and they jointly attacking, it is not impossible to win.
But now he walks up so arrogantly, what is his plan?
Everyone couldn't figure it out despite racking their brains.
"Before, it was all the senior brothers and sisters who contributed, now it's my turn."
Li Xiuping looked back and smiled as he moved forward.
Everyone frowned.
What do you mean? He wants to deal with the giant python alone that is as powerful as a Foundation Establishment monk?
Are you kidding me? A person who hasn't even practiced Qi yet has to deal with a demonic beast with foundation-building strength, but he still has to be swallowed by the giant python?
After Li Xiuping finished speaking, he took off the hatchet from his waist and suddenly accelerated.
Seeing Li Xiuping's action, everyone couldn't believe it, but they still had to believe that that guy really wanted to deal with the monster alone, which was as powerful as a foundation.
Although I don't understand why Li Xiuping did this suddenly, it is impossible for Li Xiuping to deal with that giant python given his level of strength.
"Junior brother, you don't want to die, come back quickly." In desperation, the disciple named Hao could only stop him.
If you fail to complete the task, at most you will get less monthly salary, but if a disciple in the sect dies because of the task, then it is not just a matter of the monthly salary.
Seeing Li Xiuping getting closer and closer to the giant python, everyone turned pale.
"When we do it, we must ensure the safety of our little junior brother."
Seeing that the disciple named Hao could not stop Li Xiuping, he did not dare to hesitate any more.
However, at this moment, Li Xiuping's whole body suddenly surged with sword intent, and he suddenly stepped on his feet, causing a large pit to explode in the ground.
Li Xiuping used the force of the rebound from the ground to raise his whole body into the sky. Holding the knife in both hands, he smashed straight into the giant python with the help of gravity and momentum.
Hit the snake seven inches.
Among all monsters, snake monsters have the most obvious weaknesses, because this is something everyone knows.
Everyone who was about to take action suddenly froze in place when they saw the strength and momentum displayed by Li Xiuping.
The next moment, Li Xiuping's body had fallen, and the giant python also felt the crisis. The huge body coiled like a mountain shook for a while, and then its huge head suddenly raised, trying to directly neutralize Li Xiuping's attack with the strength of its body.
Li Xiuping had long expected that it would have such a hand. He raised the hatchet in his hand and slashed it seven inches below the giant snake's head.
But from a distance, it looked like the giant snake was hitting the hatchet in Li Xiuping's hand.
With a deafening roar, blood flew out, dyeing the entire sky red, and a bloody rain began.
The giant snake's huge head hit the ground with a bang, and then kept rolling!
Everyone could hardly believe their eyes and opened their mouths wide.
"He...he really didn't practice qi?" After a while, the female disciple named Cai still couldn't believe what she saw.
After being astonished, the extraordinary and handsome disciple burst into laughter and said, "I only know that the remaining tasks we have can be easily completed."
Everyone nodded repeatedly. With the strength Li Xiuping showed now and his understanding of monsters, it would not be difficult at all to complete the remaining tasks in one day.
The female cultivator surnamed Cai's face turned a little hot at this time. She originally thought that this time it was Li Xiuping who had taken advantage of them. He just walked in and followed them to complete such a difficult task without having to do anything. But now she discovered that it was Li Xiuping who took advantage of them.
It turned out to be these senior brothers and sisters who had been in the industry for a long time.
Li Xiuping landed on the ground and asked: "Senior Brother Hao, does this big guy have anything valuable on him?"
Everyone came up at this time, and the disciple named Hao said: "Snake skin can be refined into defensive robes, but the others are of little use."
Li Xiuping stopped talking and started peeling off the skin with a hatchet, shocking everyone on the spot.
Li Xiuping said while busy: "Go get the Dragon Snake Fruit, there are still many tasks."
The disciple who received the Dragon Snake Fruit mission was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly ran towards the valley.
Li Xiuping soon discovered that skinning such a big snake was not an easy task. At this time, a disciple named Hao also stepped forward to help. Naturally, the others were too embarrassed to stand around. Finally, that disciple retrieved the dragon snake.
When fruiting, peel off the snake skin completely.
After the disciple walked out of the valley, he waved the sign in his hand and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Hao, all my tasks have been completed."
Everyone's hands are full of blood at this moment, and there is nowhere to put it.
Looking at Li Xiuping again, he didn't care at all. He folded the snake skin and put it into the Qiankun bag. He rubbed his hands casually in the soil on the ground, then picked up the hatchet and put it on his waist.
Everyone looked at Li Xiuping's actions and frowned, but for a moment they had no better way to do it, so they simply followed Li Xiuping's example and rubbed their hands in the soil.
Not to mention, it's quite practical. At least it doesn't have the viscosity and fishy smell of blood, but there is still a tight feeling when the fingers are flexed and stretched.
This time everyone put in almost no effort, so naturally there was no need to rest and they went straight to find the next mission target.
In the next few times, almost everyone watched Li Xiuping take action. No matter what kind of monsters he was, he could kill them with one strike, and it was nothing to them.
At this moment, everyone completed the last task, and then looked at the sun that had just reached their heads, filled with joy.
All tasks have been successfully completed, fifty-nine in total, and the tasks are so difficult, the rewards this time will definitely be extremely generous.
Everyone looked at Li Xiuping and said with a smile: "If it weren't for my junior brother here this time, we really wouldn't be able to complete so many tasks."
At this time, naturally no one would doubt the authenticity of this sentence, and everyone nodded.
Li Xiuping said awkwardly: "Actually... we still have one task to complete."
With that said, he took out his jade token.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned and looked at Li Xiuping with complicated expressions.
"What mission?" the female disciple named Cai asked with a frown.
"Get the blood of the blood lizard." Li Xiuping replied.
"What?!"
Everyone exclaimed almost at the same time.
The blood lizard is a real third-level monster, a terrifying existence that even the foundation-building monks find difficult to deal with. To obtain the blood of a blood lizard, doesn't it mean killing a blood lizard?
Li Xiuping looked at everyone's expressions and said awkwardly: "Brothers and sisters, all you need to do is tell me the places where blood lizards often hang out, and I will do the rest myself."
Everyone looked ugly, and in the end their happiness was in vain.
I thought I had finally completed all the tasks, but now there is only one left.
According to the elders, as long as one of them fails to complete the task, the tasks of the others will also be invalidated.
In other words, Li Xiuping's remaining mission is actually the mission of all of them.
But this task is too difficult. Even if all the previous tasks are added together, they are not as good as one-tenth of this task.
Under the Foundation Establishment, all are mortals. This is not just a sentence, it shows the huge gap between the Qi Refining Stage monks and the Foundation Establishment Stage monks, a gap that cannot be bridged.
No matter how powerful the monsters they encountered before were, they had not reached the foundation building stage, but now they were facing a real third-level monster, an extremely ferocious blood lizard.
The disciple surnamed Hao said bitterly: "I said that everyone has ten tasks. Since Junior Brother Li has such strength, how can there be only nine, and it is not difficult at all. The most difficult task is that Junior Brother Li has concealed it.
."
Everyone was full of admiration and gratitude for Li Xiuping just now, but now, their gratitude and admiration are gone. Because of this guy's concealment, they have wasted so much time and suffered so much in vain...
Li Xiuping looked at the expressions of these people and said with a smile: "I have killed foundation-building monsters before. So all I need to do is tell me where to find the blood lizard. I promise to complete the task before dark.
We will never let everyone suffer losses.”
The disciple surnamed Hao said: "Since it is a joint mission, how can we let Junior Brother Li complete it alone? But before, we only walked around the periphery of Xuanmu Mountain, and the most powerful ones we encountered were only second-order peak monsters.
I don’t know where to find third-level monsters like blood lizards.”
Li Xiuping couldn't help but frown.
"Since it is a third-level monster, it must be deeper in Xuanmu Mountain. But if we really continue to go deeper, we may encounter more than just blood lizards." The handsome and extraordinary disciple looked hopeless.
expression.
Where there are blood lizards, there will naturally be other third-level monsters, and you may even encounter the so-called thousand-year-old locust tree. If that happens, the lives of all of them will probably be involved.
Li Xiuping raised his eyes and looked into the depths of Xuanmu Mountain and said: "Without further delay, brothers and sisters, please go back quickly. I will go and complete the last task."
After saying that, he walked directly deeper into Xuanmu Mountain.
Everyone looked at Li Xiuping who just left, frowning, not knowing what to do for a while.
"Senior Brother Hao, do we really want him to go alone?" a disciple asked worriedly.
Everyone then looked at the disciple named Hao.
The disciple surnamed Hao looked at the direction Li Xiuping was leaving. He couldn't make a decision for a while. After a while, he sighed and said, "Let's go over and have a look. Since the elder issued such a mission, it must be reasonable. The worst is not the best."
It will really make us die here."
Everyone nodded, their original fear dissipated a lot, and they followed the disciple named Hao in the direction where Li Xiuping left.
However, no matter how hard they chased after him, there was no trace of Li Xiuping, and the junior brother seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
