Chapter four hundred and fourteen: first meeting Jindan monk
"There are many strong men in the deep sea canyon. We are so weak that we have no choice. After searching for many times, we hunted down a second-level top-grade fur seal. This foxtail flower should be considered to meet the test requirements." Zhao Shoushou's face was filled with emotion.
A look of helpless smile.
In fact, when I picked this elixir, I had fully anticipated the current encounters. Fortunately, the leader of the expedition team did not behave too much.
"If there are some suitable occasions, this dog's tail flower can be exchanged for some good treasures. After all, there are many dog family spirit beasts, and there are always some monks in need. Even if they are not good enough, they can still meet this test."
The smile in the bearded monk's tone could not be concealed no matter what.
"Zhao Xiaoyou, please relax your mind. It is also very important for monks to know how to choose. How can we move forward if we just rush forward and fight? There are many injuries on my body. It is obviously after a hard battle. It is better to adjust first.
"Take a breath." After all, Brother Ma Gan is a little more honest.
No matter how the process was, what the final thoughts of the two leaders were, he finally completed the test mission and officially became a member of the expedition team.
"I once encountered a powerful sea beast in the underwater forest. One blow almost brought me to a near-death situation. If the other party hadn't pursued me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to come here to join us today." After Zhao Shoushou gave a brief introduction, he was already looking for a remote place.
Sit down in the corner.
From the outside, he can still be seen, but after a series of battles, the injuries inside his body are terrifying, even with the continuous repairs of the Yuan-Building Spirit Pill.
So far, it has not improved at all. On the contrary, there are new cracks in the original wound. It can be said that it is miserable. It will take at least several years to rest in a place full of spiritual power before it can truly heal.
Although there is only about one day left, which is far from enough to treat the injury, it can be used to stabilize the situation in the body and ensure that it will not continue to worsen. This is particularly important.
Of course, the premise of all this is that no new battles will break out in the future. Under the protection of two powerful leaders on the ninth level of foundation building, this is not a too difficult goal.
According to the description in the original invitation letter, once they pass the test, they will go to the base camp of the expedition team. Presumably, they will not mind providing some temporary caves to recuperate for new members who have suffered some injuries during the completion of the test mission.
Another point and the most important point is that Lingdao, which can be used as the base camp of the expedition team, must have some special places. He hopes to have an in-depth understanding and exploration of the places that he will visit frequently in the next hundred years.
Time passed little by little, and for many monks, one day was just a few days of running. There were a total of five monks who participated in the test. As of the evening of the tenth day, only four had returned, and only four had completed the task.
There are only two including Zhao Shoushou.
"The ten-day test has come, and the expedition team's test mission has officially ended. Congratulations to both of you for completing the mission and becoming official members of the expedition team. I will wait to return to the base camp to meet the island owner." The bearded monk's tone had calmed down at this time.
"Although the two fellow Taoists have not passed the test, they have gained something. It is considered a worthwhile trip. After returning to their respective spiritual islands, they will practice seriously and have the opportunity to condense the golden elixir. Let's say goodbye today and meet again someday." Brother Ma Gan
He was also quite polite to the other two people.
It's just that in the expedition team, not completing the test mission naturally means the end of everything, and I'm afraid there is no chance to become a member of it.
Compared to the other two monks who never returned, they were also lucky. Ten days had passed, and the possibility of falling into the deep sea canyon was very high.
Of course, it is also possible that due to some reasons, you are temporarily trapped in one place and cannot escape, or you are seriously injured and are recovering from your injuries. In short, you are in trouble.
After some simple farewells, Zhao Shoushou and another monk who passed the test, together with the two guides, boarded a round-shell flying spiritual weapon and headed for the expedition team's base camp, Expedition Spirit Island.
"Since the two friends have successfully passed the test and become members of the expedition team, and have formally introduced each other, my surname is Liu Mingliang, a ninth-level monk of the Foundation Establishment, and currently the deputy captain of the third expedition team of the permanent expedition Lingdan Aoju.
Duty," Brother Ma Gan said cheerfully.
"A fake scholar from Wenzhou. I am Qian Yanshou, nicknamed Da Laohei. The only goal of spiritual practice is to live a long life. I like to drink various spiritual wines on weekdays." The bearded monk was still quite heroic.
"Hu Jingzhi has met two fellow Taoists." This monk who also passed the test with Zhao Shoushou looked a little shy at this time.
"Zhao Shoushou, the owner of Hululing Island, has met three Taoist friends. If you pass by Lingdao in the future, please show up and see him so that Zhao can have the opportunity to express his friendship as a landlord. I still have questions in my heart. Can you tell the two friends?"
A Taoist friend, please give me advice?" After the introduction, he tentatively tried to explore.
Zhao Shoushou never believed that after joining the so-called small group, all the monks would selflessly contribute and reveal all their secrets.
This has a lot to do with the monk's character, not to mention that as a new member, Zhao Shoushou obviously has a certain gap with the two leaders.
If you didn't have a preliminary understanding of their personalities during the previous conversation, you would never dare to ask them casually.
"You are too polite, little friend. As the guide, we also have the responsibility to answer questions, so there is no need to be polite." Liu Liangren (Monk Ma Gan) responded with a smile.
"I would like to ask, senior, after becoming a member of the expedition team, do you need to stay in the base camp for a long time? How are the tasks assigned? How are they divided internally? Which team should newcomers like us join?
"Zhao Shoushou can be said to be a typical person who does not complain and is unhappy.
"Hahaha, Xiaoyou Zhao is planning to find out everything about the expedition team. I can only give a simple answer here. There will be specialized monks on the spiritual island to explain the specific details."
"The expedition team has no fixed requirements for the team members. Some of the casual cultivators live on the Spirit Island for a long time and are responsible for the defense of the base camp. As for the assignment of tasks and teams, it is decided by the Elders Council and is not within the scope of our management." Liu Liangren just said
He responded hastily, and then urged the two of them to heal their injuries.
Two days later, they returned to the base camp of the expedition team without any worries. On the fifth day, the current island owner of Ling Island, a golden elixir monk, personally came to meet the two of them.
Including all the elders, composed of more than ten monks at the ninth level of foundation building, jointly confirmed the allocation of the two monks and handed them over to the sixth expedition team.
This was Zhao Shoushou's first real experience of the existence of a Golden Core cultivator up close. Before he released his breath, he was just like a mortal without any magic power.
