Nan Xianghan and his group of seven waited in the Alliance Hall of Niaoxiang Fortress for a long time, and the number of monks queuing up to receive the mission finally gradually became less and less.
Everyone glanced at a mission crystal wall hung on the wall in the main hall. Countless missions were hung on it, and the pages were continuously and automatically turned over to make it easier for all the monks to view.
On the task crystal wall, a task was suddenly displayed, and no one had taken it yet: "Task 2198: Mount Zhang'e, 300 miles southwest of Niaoxiang Fortress, has the realm of Stardust Dzogchen.
The group of ferocious beasts is causing harm to the people nearby. Go and kill them, retrieve their tails and horns, and dispose of the rest of the materials yourself. For each ferocious beast you kill, you will be rewarded with a 500-year-old Blood Ganoderma plant and spiritual power crystals.
Five hundred stones. The validity period of the task is one month from the date of receipt."①
"That's it." Nan Xianghan discussed with everyone for a while, then decided to receive this mission, and then went to a counter dedicated to handling the procedures for receiving missions and completed the formalities.
In fact, the procedure is very simple, just make a note. If the person who receives the task does not come to deliver within a month, the organizer will re-suspend the task for others to complete.
"Fellow Taoist, are you going to go alone or in a team?" Inside the counter, a voluptuous and beautiful woman raised her head and asked with a smile.
"Let's go as a team." Nan Xianghan responded expressionlessly.
"Team name and number of people." The beautiful woman continued to ask, while taking out a jade slip and recording it.
Nan Xianghan pondered for a moment and said, "Ba Sword, seven people."
"Okay, this is the token of the Eastern Wasteland Monk Alliance. With this token, wherever you go, all the forces in the alliance can provide some conveniences to fellow Taoists. Fellow Taoists, please take it and I look forward to returning home with a full load!"
"The beautiful woman smiled.
"Thank you." Nan Xianghan took the alliance token, turned around and left the alliance hall with his teammates.
The seven of them had nothing to deal with, so they quickly arrived at the mission location - Zhang'e Mountain, three hundred miles southwest of Niaoxiang Fortress.
This is a large rocky mountain with rugged rocks and towering peaks, but it looks bare, with some low vegetation growing there, all of which have dried up.
Everyone stood on the edge of a cliff, looking into the valley, scanning their eyes, searching for this target.
"clank!"
Suddenly, a strange sound like hitting a stone came from the bottom of the valley. Everyone immediately increased their vigilance and looked around, but could not see anything. But the sound just now was clearly the cry of a ferocious beast.
It's just not easy to judge the quantity.
According to the mission information, there is a beast in this mountain. It is red all over, has a body like a leopard, has five tails, and has a single horn in the center of its forehead. It makes a clanging sound like hitting a stone, so it is called
For ferocious beasts.
"It is said that the ancestor of the ferocious beast was an evil beast in ancient times. It had strong magical power and a violent and untamable temperament. It once brought trouble to the world. Once when he was doing evil, the ancient mythical beast Zhulong happened to pass by, so he subdued it.
.Since then, the ferocious beast has followed Zhulong. Zhulong ordered it to clean his huge body, completely turning it into a coolie and unable to go out to do evil anymore. Until Zhulong disappeared, the ferocious beast
Then he walked out again." Jiao Yuan suddenly said.
"As expected of being called Jiao Yuan, he is indeed knowledgeable. In this way, the ancestor of the ferocious beast lived with the mythical beast Zhulong for a long time. Could it be that he learned more difficult methods and passed them on to his descendants?
?" Nan Xianglian asked with a smile.
"That's not clear, but the ferocious beasts here have the cultivation level of Stardust Dzogchen Realm, and they are in a group. We don't know the specific number yet. This is a huge challenge for us." Jiao Yuan looked a little bit.
Solemnly.
"Brother Jiao, does he know the weakness of ferocious beasts?" Nan Xianghan asked.
"The ferocious beast is extremely powerful and has strong attack power. It can tear apart tigers and leopards, and it is as fast as the wind. Its weakness is that it gets angry easily and loses its mind. We can take advantage of this, and its weak protection is
In the abdomen." Jiao Yuan said.
"We are all in the early stage of Stardust, and our strength is far inferior to that of ferocious beasts. Therefore, we can only kill those who are alone, and we can only outwit them, but cannot defeat them." Nan Xianghan looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice.
, "Now that we know their weaknesses, we will first find a secret place to hide, then carefully study them, formulate a hunting plan, and then act according to the plan."
Everyone nodded.
When night falls and the new moon rises, the Fire Phoenix has returned to its full glory, and Hua Luoxue's injuries have also recovered as before.
The fire phoenix removed the red cloud that enveloped everyone, and its body turned into a red light and disappeared.
"Where did Senior Fire Phoenix go?" Li Yiyue was shocked and couldn't help but ask.
"Junior sister Yiyue, don't worry. Senior Huo Fenghuang is very powerful and is too conspicuous. It is not advisable to show her face too much to avoid attracting attention. She is nearby, not far from us. If we encounter a danger that we cannot deal with, she will be there in time.
Came here to help." Xiao Nan looked at Li Yiyue and said.
"So that's the case, then I'm relieved. How long will it take for me to practice until I can reach as advanced a state as Senior Fire Phoenix!" Li Yiyue said with a look of fascination.
"Haha! The day will come. Junior Sister Yiyue has to work hard. We will always have to face the road ahead on our own. Senior Fire Phoenix cannot always protect us." Xiao Nan heard Li Yiyue's words.
, and couldn’t help but smile.
"Well, I will try my best." Li Yiyue turned to look at Hua Luoxue, with a look of concern on her face, "Senior Brother Xuehua, are you really fully recovered? There is nothing uncomfortable in your body, right?"
"Thank you, Junior Sister Yiyue, for your concern. I'm really fine with my health. You've already asked me twice." Hua Luoxue responded helplessly.
Li Yiyue's pretty face turned red, "That's good. Hey, what is that?"
Suddenly, Li Yiyue pointed to the distance and exclaimed in a low voice.
Everyone couldn't help but look in the direction she pointed, and saw a red light flying across a bare valley in the distance at an extremely fast speed.
In front of the red light, there is a blue sword light roaring, but the speed is obviously slower than the red light. Depending on the situation, it will not take long for the red light to catch up.
As soon as everyone's thoughts changed, the red light suddenly accelerated, and in an instant it caught up with the blue sword light and slammed into it.
A burst of light erupted, and the blue sword light was severely knocked away by the red light for a distance. The speed slowed down a lot, and it seemed to be a little shaky. It was obvious that the person who was hit had been injured.
The blue sword light did not hesitate and continued to run forward. Seeing the red light quickly catching up with him, the blue sword light immediately turned around and struck out with a sword. The sword light rose up like a blue crescent moon.
Normally, it would just hit the red light.
A strong and dazzling light burst out instantly, and even sent the red light flying away, but the blue sword light did not dare to stay and continued to flee forward.
"Moon God Technique!" Xiao Nan and Hua Luoxue both exclaimed in low voices at the same time, and then they quickly looked at each other.
"The blue sword light is probably Han Qiuyu. She is being hunted. Let's follow her and have a look." Hua Luoxue whispered to Xiao Nan.
"Senior Brother Xueluo, Senior Brother Xuehua, what are you muttering about?" Li Yiyue suddenly came over.
"It looks like there's someone fighting there. I'll sneak over to take a look at the situation first, and then you can slowly follow me from behind." As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Nan turned into an afterimage and flew past before anyone could reply.
And left, in an instant he was already far away.
Hua Luoxue could only look at the three brothers and sisters Yu Shengrui and said, "Let's follow them quietly to take a look, so that we can take care of them if we encounter any danger."
The four of them no longer hesitated, spread out their bodies one after another, and quickly followed.
① "The Classic of Mountains and Seas·Western Mountains": The mountain of Zhang'e has no vegetation and many jade greens. It is very strange. There is a beast, its shape is like a red leopard, with five tails and one horn, and its sound is like hitting a stone. Its name is ferocious.
