$ Chapter 1074 Xuanyin Stone, Xuanyin Cave

Just when they were feeling awkward, Yu Xiong took the initiative to offer a fair and reasonable solution, and Huan Yin was also easy to talk to, and directly accepted Yu Xiong's proposal. This was naturally what the third elder of the Situ family was very happy to see.

What's more, under Yu Xiong's suggestion, the Situ family had found two strong people to compete for their tasks at the same time. No matter which party succeeded in the end, the probability of the Situ family's task being completed would at least double, and the Situ family would not suffer any loss. This was also what the third elder was very happy to see.

So, after Huan Yin finished speaking, the third elder of the Situ family hurriedly said: "Since this senior agrees with Master Yu's method, then let's do it according to Master Yu's method."

As he spoke, the third elder's face was already full of smiles. His tone was a little hurried, as if he was afraid that one party would suddenly regret it.

Nodding, Huan Yin said: "Since the host family has no objection, let's do it this way."

Making a "please" gesture, the third elder said: "Then please come here and swear an oath according to the requirements and rules, and then I will explain the details of this mission to the two seniors."

Huan Yin and Yu Xiong looked at each other, and Yu Xiong's eyes showed obvious fighting spirit and brilliance, while Huan Yin smiled faintly. Then they walked to the territory belonging to the Situ family at the same time and began to swear an oath.

According to the rules of mercenaries, the requirements for the oath are extremely strict. And the high-level mission of the Situ family has greater rewards, so the requirements for the oath will naturally be more stringent.

Huan Yin and Yu Xiong not only swore to do their best to complete the mission as agreed, not to privately hijack the target of the mission halfway, and not to disclose the details of the mission to anyone after the mission failed, but also swore according to the special requirements of the Situ family that if they failed, they would be willing to compensate the Situ family with 100,000 fairy jades as punishment.

After the oath, the third elder nodded with a smile, and then threw the jade slip in his hand, causing it to soar into the air. The jade slip soon flashed with light, and the light fell directly towards Huan Yin and Yu Xiong.

What the light wanted to convey to Huan Yin and Yu Xiong was naturally the specific information of this mission. Huan Yin stood quietly, and when he was covered by the light, he learned that it was less than half a mile outside the tall city wall of Xijian City, on the side of a small mound, there was actually a bottomless pit.

The entrance of this pit is very small, and it is not good-looking, so even though it has existed for a long time and is within the territory of the Western Eight Days, it has not been noticed by anyone.

The reason why this pit attracted the attention of the Situ family was that a little kid in the Situ family went to play at the entrance of the cave and accidentally discovered that there seemed to be another mystery inside. Therefore, the Situ family secretly organized the family's masters to go to investigate many times, and finally found that although the entrance of the pit is small, once entered, at least three people can pass through at the same time. Moreover, in the pit, from 500 feet below the ground, there was an extremely yin aura, and the deeper it went, the thicker it was.

The head of the Situ family had the highest cultivation in the family, and he had personally gone to investigate once. That time, he went to a position 3,000 feet below the pit. There, he found that the extremely yin aura was so thick that he could not understand it. Even with his cultivation, he did not dare to investigate further.

In his perception, the end of the pit seemed to be far away, which is why the Situ family said that the pit was bottomless.

If the pit had remained mysterious, the Situ family would not have paid attention to it. But after the head of the Situ family came to 3,000 feet underground, he felt another breath. The head of the Situ family was knowledgeable and concluded that the breath was transmitted from the "Xuan Yin Stone", a creature of heaven. In addition, the pit was too yin, and it had the conditions for breeding Xuan Yin Stone. Therefore, the head of the Situ family finally concluded that there must be Xuan Yin Stone in the depths of the pit.

Because of these, the Situ family named the pit "Xuan Yin Cave". And because the Situ family was in urgent need of Xuan Yin Stone, they secretly organized their clansmen to go to the cave many times, trying to get the Xuan Yin Stone. However, no matter how they used the power of the formation, the deepest they had ever been to was only five thousand feet.

At five thousand feet, the Situ family still did not find the Xuan Yin Stone, but found that the breath of the Xuan Yin Stone was a little stronger.

In this way, as time went by, the Situ family's demand for Xuan Yin Stone became more and more urgent. Until today, if they couldn't get the Xuan Yin Stone, something would happen at home. In desperation, they urgently asked the third elder to come here to issue the task, and wanted to ask someone to get the Xuan Yin Stone up today.

After understanding the details of all the tasks, the third elder took the jade slip back. Huan Yin stood there and thought.

"The Xuanyin Stone is a spiritual object that can only be produced after a thousand years of nurturing in the extremely yin land. However, this kind of thing is not very useful, so it is not very precious. If calculated according to the market price, 150,000 fairy jades should be able to buy the Xuanyin Stone. Therefore, the reward given by the Situ family is considered high."

"However, it seems that there is no such thing for sale in the market recently, and the Situ family may really need this thing urgently, so they have to offer a reward of 200,000 fairy jades today. I am not losing money in this deal."

Thinking of this, Huan Yin looked at the third elder of the Situ family, and found that he was looking back, and whispered: "Two seniors, the head of the family once told me privately that he suspected that in addition to the Xuanyin Stone, there was another Xuanxu in the pit, and it might even be a passage to hell! The two seniors must be extremely careful. Once successful, perhaps in addition to the rewards from my Situ family, you can also encounter other fortunes in it!"

The third elder of the Situ family said something tempting, obviously wanting to make Huan Yin and Yu Xiong more motivated. Yu Xiong's eyes glowed with more brilliance, as if he had believed the third elder's words, while Huan Yin still smiled faintly, and then heard the third elder say loudly: "Since the two seniors have understood the details, I think there is no time to lose, let's set off now!"

Huan Yin and Yu Xiong nodded at the same time, and had already soared into the air. At this time, someone in the task market below asked loudly: "Third elder, you said there are two tasks, what about the other one, why not tell me first before leaving."

The third elder laughed and said: "The head of the family said that the second task is more difficult than the first task, and it requires a stronger person to complete it. Now I see that the strong people in the entire task market are all around me, so this second task will be directly handed over to the seniors who completed the first task!"

After speaking, the third elder took Huan Yin and Yu Xiong, turned into streams of light in the sky, and flew out of the city.

The distance was not far, so the three of them soon came to the small mound and saw the pit. It was really inconspicuous.

In order not to attract the attention of others, the Situ family did not send anyone to guard here, so after the three of them arrived, there were only three of them here.

"Two seniors, this is it." The third elder pointed to the pit on the ground and said.

Yu Xiong stood up, bowed to the third elder, and said: "Then I will leave now."

After that, he turned to Huan Yin and said: "My fellow Taoist, please go all out, otherwise I'm afraid you will lose miserably!"

Huan Yin smiled faintly and said: "None of your mercenary group members have arrived yet, are you going to go alone?"

Yu Xiong said: "Since it is a fair competition between you and me, I naturally can't ask others for help!"

When Huan Yin looked at Yu Xiong, his appreciation increased a little more. He said faintly: "Okay, then please."

Yu Xiong bowed to Huan Yin, and his figure shook, and he had already drilled into the pit.

Seeing that Yu Xiong had already rushed in, but Huan Yin had not made any move, the third elder asked: "Senior, do you have any other requests?"

Huan Yin took out a jade slip from his arms and handed it to the third elder, saying: "Take this, it will be convenient for you to witness everything."

The third elder saw that what Huan Yin handed over was the jade slip that could allow him to directly obtain Huan Yin's vision after Huan Yin rushed in and see everything that happened in the pit. He immediately said excitedly: "Senior, you are really thoughtful, so please leave immediately!"

"Okay!" With a slight smile, Huan Yin disappeared without a trace...
