Chapter 886: Chapter 886: Went to Do a Task
Of course, these things were all in the future; at the moment, Jiang Xiaobai was considering whether he should exchange for a cultivation technique from the marketplace.
The specified technique was to be acquired from a mission!
That is to say, it could enjoy the effect of a half-price improvement for the first time!
After looking through, Jiang Xiaobai found he had nearly thirty million points at his disposal; this trip out earned him a good haul of points.
“Thirty million, that should be enough for an enhancement, right?”
After some thought, Jiang Xiaobai began to browse through the system for soul-related cultivation techniques.
His first aim was to search for special techniques that could boost the soul.
But what Jiang Xiaobai discovered was that most techniques required a massive amount of time to cultivate.
For him at the moment, he didn’t have so much time.
Too many things to do!
As he looked, suddenly Jiang Xiaobai flipped back through the pages.
“Godslayer?”
Could it be a technique similar to “God Killing”?
Glancing at the description, Jiang Xiaobai’s eyes lit up, “Well, well, you’re the one, devouring others’ souls to enhance my own; isn’t this exactly what I need?”
“System, it’s this one!”
The Godslayer technique was immediately exchanged successfully, its name quite domineering, and its effect similarly so.
Jiang Xiaobai carefully read further and found that once this technique was cultivated to a formidable level, it could directly devour souls!
Godslayer, Godslayer, it was the soul that would be slain!
What concept was this?
When Jiang Xiaobai faced an enemy whose soul was weaker than his, good grief, he could just swallow it whole!
If you have no soul left, how would you fight me?
And by devouring others’ souls to enhance his own, wouldn’t that save the time needed for cultivation?
When it comes to slacking off, Jiang Xiaobai naturally ranked first, no one dared to claim second!
“System, how much does it cost to enhance a cultivation technique?”
“Thirty million points to elevate it to the most top-notch state; afterwards, this technique becomes a growth-type technique, requiring the host to devour other souls to enhance it!”
“Alright, thirty million it is, I’m spending this money!”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled, spending the thirty million points in one go, leaving just over a million in hand.
But that was enough!
The power of Godslayer immediately rose to complete perfection, but Jiang Xiaobai discovered something—devouring someone else’s soul took time!
For example, if he devoured a Great Achievement soul, it would take three days to fully transform it into his own soul strength!
If it was a True Immortal’s soul, then it would take more than ten days!
For that of an Earth Immortal or a Heavenly Immortal, even longer!
“Although this technique seems a bit wicked, it depends on who uses it; I’ll only use it against enemies, it’s not for indiscriminate use.”
Jiang Xiaobai chuckled.
In this way, apart from his own defense, it seemed like all other aspects of his abilities had reached the level of full development!
“The strongest defense is the strongest attack!”
“I, Jiang Xiaobai, don’t need defense!”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded earnestly.
He was now eager to find a soul to devour and see how much his soul strength would increase.
The soul was linked to the spirit, being a higher plane of the spirit’s existence.
If the soul was strong, the spirit was naturally strong!
Then wielding the Soul Blade would be even more effortless!
“Not bad, not bad. So next, let’s check out the missions, since there’s no way to practice cultivation anyway, and doing some missions to exchange for points sounds good.”
Jiang Xiaobai opened his eyes and realized it was already daylight—
He had spent a whole night browsing through cultivation techniques.
Just in time, Qiongyu also came out of her room.
“Let’s go, shall we see how the sect tasks are?” Jiang Xiaobai suggested.
“Of course, a battle is exactly what I need,”
Qiongyu said indifferently.
This might involve Qiongyu’s secret, so Jiang Xiaobai did not ask further.
But if he had asked, Qiongyu probably would have told him.
The tacit understanding and trust between the two had become so tight.
Soon, they hurried towards the Mission Hall.
For Jiang Xiaobai, this would be his first time entering the sect and his first attempt at handling sect affairs.
There were lots of people in the Mission Hall, over a thousand!
In front of them was a huge wall, on which at least ten thousand mission tokens were hung, each marking three things.
The first was the main objective and execution location of the task.
The second was the difficulty of the task!
It would give a recommendation, for instance, this mission is suitable for Great Achievement disciples, that one for Earth Immortal disciples.
The third was how many sect points one would receive upon completing the task.
The more points, the higher the difficulty, evidently.
Jiang Xiaobai even saw task selections for teams to complete.
“This is pretty interesting,” Jiang Xiaobai remarked, his curiosity piqued as he looked over the myriad of tasks.
Next to him, Qiongyu spoke lightly, “You’ve never done such missions?”
“Never, I haven’t even been in the sect,” he replied.
“What about you?”
Jiang Xiaobai looked towards Qiongyu, only to see her with a somber expression, “In the Elf Clan, there are also tasks which the clan disciples must execute unconditionally.”
“A superpower or super family will not sit idly in a place without incident; they need to develop and require resources to support their expenses.”
“A reward and punishment system as well as a task system, are essential.”
Jiang Xiaobai nodded his head in agreement.
He guessed that the Dragon Valley probably had the same situation, but he had never come in contact with it.
As for Ao Yan and Ao Cheng, who had already become the most core youth of Dragon Valley, they would either be focused on cultivating or doing other things; such tasks were not something they would be given access to.
Jiang Xiaobai began to seek advice from Qiongyu on task experience.
“There isn’t much to say about experience, it’s all clearly written here, the difficulty, the number of points,” she said.
“They even write down the recommended realm for you, what are you worried about? Just do it!”
Qiongyu sounded quite helpless as she spoke.
How could such a troublemaker not know these things?
Jiang Xiaobai scratched his head and soon found a task suitable for the Earth Immortal realm, set in one of the Middle Three Thousand Worlds.
There were two families there that had a dispute that needed to be mediated.
The task awarded thirty sect points, recommended for Earth Immortal realm.
Out of the many Earth Immortal tasks, this was a relatively simple one, neither too many nor too few points, just right for practice.
“Let’s pick this task, then.”
“I’ll follow your lead.”
They quickly registered for the task, which had to be completed within ten days, and took with them jade slips representing the two feuding families.
But how to get to the Middle Three Thousand Worlds?
Wouldn’t it be too costly to use World Origin Stones every time?
“An elder from the sect will open a passage for you all to go and execute the task. After completion, use the token to contact for your return,” declared the disciple issuing tasks.
Jiang Xiaobai finally understood.
“Rookie, doing a task for the first time, you’d better do it elegantly,” Jiang Xiaobai chuckled to himself.
He walked to another part of the Mission Hall, where there was a plaza. All the disciples going to other worlds would pass through here, where elders would specially open spatial passages.
Jiang Xiaobai and his company displayed their mission token, and an elder immediately opened the passage.
The two dashed through speedily.
What do you think?
