Chapter 30: Outer Gate Mission.
Chapter 30
The little tree has transformed!
Bu Xingjin stared blankly at the small tree that had transformed into a human form. He had never expected that the appearance of the small tree after its transformation would be so majestic, awe-inspiring and making people dare not approach it.
After fully absorbing the essence of the holy medicine, Qing Yan successfully completed the process of transforming into a human form. He slowly descended from a high altitude, frowning and staring at Bu Xingjin who was standing still with confusion.
Growing up like this is really stressful! Bu Xingjin thought that his external conditions were already excellent, but compared with Xiaoshu, he was not on the same level at all.
Regardless, it’s great that the little tree has recovered!
Bu Xingjin walked slowly, overflowing with joy as he approached Qing Yan's side. He said happily, "Qing Yan, you've finally recovered! That's great!"
Bu Xingjin excitedly circled around Qing Yan and said with emotion: "I haven't expressed my gratitude to you yet. Thank you for helping me in my time of crisis."
"You don't have to say thank you." Qing Yan uttered a few words lightly.
Bu Xingjin was filled with doubt, wondering: Why didn't he express gratitude? Saving his life was such a great favor, yet he didn't even offer a single word of thanks. What kind of person was he, then?
When Bu Xingjin was about to ask, Qing Yan continued to explain: "This is to repay you for giving me some special spiritual energy."
After that terrifying thunderstorm, he luckily survived. From that day on, a mysterious spiritual energy would occasionally flow into his body, as if the power of nature was silently repairing his damaged foundation.
At first, his perception of the outside world was very limited, and he had no idea where this mysterious and strange spiritual energy came from. However, as time passed, his perception gradually recovered a little, and he finally discovered that the special spiritual energy was actually coming from a small blade of grass next to him.
Special aura?
Bu Xingjin instantly recalled the golden light he had absorbed from the tree during his upgrade. This must be the special spiritual energy Qing Yan had mentioned. However, he hadn't noticed any effect on him without this special energy. More precisely, the special energy wasn't under his control and couldn't be considered his own.
"You've lost some of your special spiritual energy, so you might be lacking some foundation when you ascend. I will replenish it for you."
Qing Yan told Bu Xingjin the whole story. The reason why he told it now was because he had some ability after his transformation and could fulfill his promise.
Ascension?
He was only in the Foundation Establishment stage, still a long way from ascending. Even if his foundation was slightly lacking, he wasn't worried, for he possessed a miraculous system. Furthermore, Xiaoshu had once saved his life, and compared to the small loss of his special spiritual energy, this was an indescribable bargain. Now, Xiaoshu no longer lacked anything for him.
"Qing Yan, you gained special spiritual energy because of me, and I escaped death because of you, so you don't owe me anything? You don't need to replenish my foundation..."
Qing Yan remained silent. Looking at his expression, Bu Xingjin knew that he didn't listen to him.
It is impossible for Bu Xingjin to refuse something that he has not yet obtained. Let's just wait and see.
Bu Xingjin looked up at the sky. At this moment, the daylight was gradually fading away, and the setting sun was slowly sinking into the western horizon. The sunset glow was picturesque, decorating the sky.
He looked around and found a small pit in the yard where Qing Yan had stopped. He walked over to the pit, gently patted the soil, and then smiled and invited Qing Yan into the house.
"Don't stand outside, let's go inside and talk."
Bu Xingjin walked in front, Qing Yan followed behind, and the little turtle lay quietly on Qing Yan's shoulder without saying a word.
The two men and the turtle came into the room and sat down.
"Qing Yan, what realm are you in now?"
Bu Xingjin asked the point that he was most interested in, so that he could judge when he could transform without relying on the human form experience card.
"Golden Pill."
This means that he can transform himself when he reaches the Jindan stage. Bu Xingjin was secretly excited. He was not far from the Jindan stage.
"Qing Yan, what are your plans next?"
Bu Xingjin actually wanted to ask if what he said before still counted. He remembered how much he had pestered Xiaoshu to go with him. Now that Xiaoshu was free to move around, would he leave?
"what ever."
Qing Yan uttered two words and stopped talking.
Bu Xingjin was very happy, as this meant that Qing Yan would continue to follow him.
Having already gotten the answer to what he wanted to know most, Bu Xingjin stopped asking questions out of curiosity and closed his eyes to start practicing.
The time spent in cultivation passed quickly, and the day dawned as soon as I opened my eyes.
Seeing that Qing Yan was still practicing, Bu Xingjin did not disturb him and quietly went out alone.
He wanted to go to the outer sect mission hall to check out the outer sect disciples' missions.
When he was practicing yesterday, he was thinking about what to do next. He had been in the Amaterasu Sect for so long and had always been under the protection of the master of Fuhua Peak.
Now that Xiaoshu is well again, he should do something to repay the master of Fuhua Peak, such as looking for the middle-aged man in green robe.
When he arrived at the outer mission hall, there were not many people inside and no one paid any attention to him when he came in.
The outer gate mission hall is not big. It is a small one-story building supported by four pillars. There is a huge water curtain in the middle, which is filled with various tasks.
There was a small wooden counter in front of the water curtain, and behind it stood a white-haired old man, hunched over, arranging the jade plaques on the counter.
Bu Xingjin looked around and finally came to the counter.
He took out his outer disciple token and placed it on the counter, saying, "I want to take on the outer disciple mission."
The old man took a long time to react and slowly put away the jade token in his hand. Bu Xingjin did not urge him and just watched the old man do it.
"The missions are all at the back. The ones at the top are the hardest, and the ones at the bottom are the easiest. Some missions have requirements, and some don't. Take your pick and report the mission number to me."
The old man moved slowly but spoke surprisingly fluently, saying everything in one breath.
Bu Xingjin looked up and carefully read the contents on the water curtain.
He looked at the top one first:
Mission 1: Kill the Water Snake.
Reward: Become an inner disciple, one thousand points.
Requirements: None.
He was a little confused about the mission objectives and rewards. He didn't know how terrifying the Water Demon Snake was, nor did he know what the use of 1,000 points was.
However, since it is Task 1, the most difficult task in the entire Task Hall, it is definitely not something he can complete when he is just in the Foundation Establishment Stage.
Looking down, Bu Xingjin saw a familiar task.
Mission 161: Investigate the murderer of Lu Xunwen, a disciple of Fuhua Peak.
Reward: One Heavenly Spirit Flower and one hundred high-quality spirit stones.
Requirements: None.
This just happened to be in line with his goal. Bu Xingjin found the old man and accepted task 161, and then found a task at the bottom to pick the third-level red ghost grass and accepted it together.
After accepting the two tasks, Bu Xingjin returned to the courtyard.
At this time, Qing Yan had finished his training and was standing in the courtyard, talking to the little turtle.
“… Revenge.”
Bu Xingjin walked in and only heard the vague words "revenge". He was about to listen more but found that the tree and the turtle had stopped talking and were looking at him together.
What's so mysterious that they don't want him to know? Bu Xingjin muttered but didn't take it to heart. He smiled and took out his outer disciple token and said, "There's nothing to do in Amaterasu Sect. I've accepted two missions and am going out to take a look."
Thinking of the last time he transformed into a human form and ran around and ended up being caught in a mine, Bu Xingjin looked at Qing Yan with some guilt. He felt that he would not fall to such a point this time.
Qing Yan didn't notice Bu Xingjin's eyes. After listening to Bu Xingjin's introduction, he agreed without objection.
The little turtle didn't care at all. After communicating with Qing Yan, it already knew a lot. It had nothing to do for the time being and was ready to continue following Bu Xingjin.
After explaining things to Qingyan and the little turtle, Bu Xingjin went out again and went to say goodbye to Zhao Siwen.
He couldn't wait to look around.
When he arrived at Zhao Siwen's palace, Bu Xingjin could see him practicing swordsmanship inside through the open palace door.
Bu Xingjin knocked gently on the door.
A crisp sound interrupted Zhao Siwen's actions. He turned around and saw Bu Xingjin standing at the door.
He put away his sword, smiled and ran to the door to let Bu Xingjin in.
"Why are you here?"
"I came to say goodbye to you."
"Goodbye, where are you going? There may still be people outside the Amaterasu sect who are unwilling to give up. It's very dangerous for you to go out now."
Zhao Siwen was stunned and couldn't keep the smile on his face. He advised with a worried look on his face.
He can't stay in Fuhua Peak forever. It was because of the little tree before, but now the little tree has transformed and its cultivation is higher than his. Plus, there is a little turtle whose realm is unknown, so it shouldn't be so easy for him to encounter danger.
"I have accepted the mission from two outer disciples and am going out to complete it."
"Can't we wait a little longer?" Zhao Siwen continued to persuade him without giving up.
"I've made up my mind. The Peak Master and you have helped me a lot. I can't always be under their protection. I won't grow up that way."
"In that case, I wish you a safe journey!" Zhao Siwen couldn't bring himself to go out with him. He wanted to cultivate to the Golden Core stage as soon as possible, and then go to avenge his senior brother.
"I'll give you my good wishes."
Bu Xingjin waved goodbye to Zhao Siwen.
I went back to the yard, packed up simply, and got ready to go!
