Chapter 31 Novice Mission
Song Wen walked out of the cave and saw Du Qiu standing at the door with a somewhat impatient face.
Behind him were five other people who started at the same time.
Wu Sheng led his iron corpse with a proud face and stared at Song Wen provocatively.
A month ago, he took advantage of the fact that Song Wen had just arrived at the Corpse Demon Sect and did not understand the sect's rules, so he took Song Wen's cave by force. With the help of the rich spiritual energy and corpse evil energy in the cave, in just one month, his "Zombie Evil Skill" broke through from the middle stage of the third level of Qi training to the late stage, which made him very satisfied.
He now wants to know how depressed and angry Song Wen felt after learning about the sect's rules prohibiting private fights.
The result was that he was disappointed. Song Wen just looked at the other party lightly and stopped paying attention, as if the occupation of the cave had never happened at all.
Zhang Xiaofan and four other people have also started practicing the "Corpse Evil Technique", but it is only at the introductory stage, and the corpse energy on their bodies is almost invisible.
Du Qiu glanced at Song Wen and saw that Song Wen had successfully practiced "The Corpse King's Blood Training", so he stopped paying attention.
As long as these six people successfully learn the technique within one month, his mission will be considered completed.
Du Qiu said, "The January period has arrived. You need to go to the Foreign Affairs Hall to receive the sect's mission. I will take you to the Foreign Affairs Hall. My mission of teaching newcomers this time has been completed. Please follow me."
After saying that, Du Qiu took the lead and headed towards the mountainside along the rugged mountain road.
The six people followed immediately.
On the road, Wu Sheng still cast provocative looks at Song Wen from time to time, but Song Wen seemed to not see it at all and ignored him, making Wu Sheng's provocation completely in vain.
"I'm afraid this person is a fool! I don't know where he got his confidence. If he is so confident when he first arrives in a strange place, he won't be afraid of being slapped one day!"
However, Zhang Xiaofan, who had had brief contact with Song Wen, cast a kind look at Song Wen.
Song Wen also responded with a kind smile. Even if you are in a demon sect, you still need to have necessary interpersonal relationships, especially those who have started at the same time, who have a natural sense of closeness to each other.
It's always good to have good classmates, even superficial friends.
After walking for less than half an hour, the group arrived at the Foreign Affairs Hall halfway up the mountain to the west of the mountain.
Du Qiu said, "This is the Foreign Affairs Hall. Before I say goodbye, I would like to remind you one last time to be cautious when choosing tasks for newcomers. This is directly related to your career in the next five years, and may even have a major impact on your entire cultivation career."
"That's it for now, I'll see you all later."
After saying this, Du Qiu left gracefully.
After Du Qiu walked away, Wu Sheng raised his eyes and looked around the five people, with an inexplicable sense of superiority in his eyes.
Before joining the sect, he had already chosen the sect's mission, and he felt that he was much better than these five newbies who didn't know anything.
He walked into the foreign affairs hall at the lead and said to an old man in the hall.
"See the elders, my name is Wu Sheng, I am a new disciple starting in January, and I am here to receive the newbie mission."
The old man raised his cloudy eyes, glanced at Wu Sheng without any emotion, then looked at the five people behind him and urged.
"Why don't those five guys behind you hurry up? I don't want to waste time, so I'll introduce the newcomers' tasks to you newcomers twice."
The five people behind quickly quickened their pace.
After the five people approached, the old man continued.
"The places that need new people now are: the Spirit Planting Hall needs six spirit planters, the Blood Refining Hall needs two corpse removers, the Soul Refining Hall needs three soul collectors, and the corpse pit needs two corpse bearers... "
The old man introduced each of the halls that were in urgent need of fresh blood.
"These are the places that need manpower now. You can choose any one from them. Once chosen, it cannot be changed within five years."
Wu Sheng, who had already been accused of the crime, was the first to speak.
"Elder, I want to go to Yinsha Palace to be a corpse catcher."
When practicing, the Demonic Cultivators of the Corpse Demon Sect require a large amount of blood essence and corpses from righteous monks and mortals. The so-called Corpse Catchers are the Demonic Cultivators of the Corpse Demon Sect who specialize in capturing and massacring righteous monks and mortals.
Of course, the mortal essence, blood and corpses required by the monks of the Corpse Demon Sect are not ordinary mortals. They generally have specific requirements. For example, a person with a Yin fate who was born in a Yin year and a Yin month must be buried in a corpse raising ground without decaying for hundreds of years. mummies and so on.
When the Corpse Demon Sect massacres the righteous monks, it usually does not attack the disciples of the large righteous sects. It usually chooses the casual cultivators and small sects who practice the righteous methods to attack. After all, the persimmons have to be picked on the weak.
The old man looked stern and scolded in a bad tone.
"How come you, a newcomer who has just started, become the corpse hunter of Yinsha Palace!"
The old man was angry because in his previous introduction, he did not have the option of becoming a corpse catcher.
The Corpse Catchers of Yinsha Palace need to be at least in the middle stage of Qi training before they can join, and this is only the minimum requirement. Since Corpse Catchers often have to fight with casual cultivators, they are extremely dangerous, which leads to the fact that most of the elite Corpse Catchers are He is a monk in the late stage of Qi training.
Of course, being a corpse hunter is extremely risky, and comes with huge rewards.
Not only does the Corpse Demon Sect allocate a large amount of training resources to the Corpse Catchers every month, the treatment of the Corpse Catchers is top-notch in the entire Corpse Demon Sect, and after killing casual cultivators, they can often get a lot of money from their corpses. H.
Faced with the old man's scolding, Wu Sheng was not afraid. He cupped his hands, bent down and said respectfully.
"Please calm down, elder. My late father was once a corpse catcher. He taught me the Corpse Evil Skill since I was a child. Now I have reached the peak of the third level of Qi training, and I am only one step away from the middle stage of Qi training. I also have an iron corpse comparable to the sixth level of Qi training. Elder, can you please be lenient with me for the contribution my father made to the sect?"
While speaking, Wu Sheng took out a cloth bag from his arms. The bag contained fifty spirit stones, which were prepared for him by his father before his death.
He stuffed the bag directly into the hands of the old man.
The old man held the bag and smiled. Although there were not many spirit stones, he was very satisfied.
The old man nodded and said, "For the sake of your father, I will let you join the Yinsha Palace and become a corpse catcher."
The old man touched the storage bag on his waist, and a triangular black token appeared in his hand. The token had the words "corpse catcher" on it.
He threw the token to Wu Sheng.
Wu Sheng took the token and looked very happy. He bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you, elder."
The reason why Wu Sheng wanted to become a very dangerous corpse catcher was mainly because he only had a fourth-grade spiritual root. Although he also had a middle-grade spiritual root and had the opportunity to build a foundation, he needed a lot of resources to supply him with cultivation. His father, who was only at the eighth level of Qi training, left him a legacy that was obviously not enough to support him to cultivate to the foundation-building stage.
He didn't want to be like his father a few decades later, failing to build a foundation and leaving the sect sadly, and could only place the hope of immortality on his descendants.
