Chapter 173 Moon Spirit Pure Heart Flower
In the blink of an eye, nearly a month has passed again.
There are more than a dozen evil-killing envoys in the Zhuxie Division of Tianxuan Sect, and each of them is in charge of a part of the members, just like more than a dozen teams.
A few months ago, Yu Wusi was deregistered in Gaoguan County, and almost all of his team members died, and the remaining people were divided up by other evil-killing envoys.
Therefore, Gu Xia is now the only "free man" without a team.
But because he is a novice and his past performance is very average (because Qian Danggui took this junior brother to fish in the dark), no evil-killing envoy wants to take him in for the time being.
In a sense, Gu Xia is now directly under the jurisdiction of Gu Wangshu, the manager of the Zhuxie Division, but Gu Wangshu has no time to take care of him.
Therefore, in fact, Gu Xia can arrange his own time freely, which is equivalent to a sinecure for the time being.
This morning, he came to the Merit Hall of Tianxuan Sect.
The function here is similar to the task release point of the mercenary guild.
Although the formal disciples of Tianxuan Sect have been assigned corresponding tasks, after all, warriors have to practice, so most of the basic work is solved by the outer disciples.
After finishing their duties, formal disciples have at least ten days of free time every month.
And those formal disciples who lack cultivation resources will use their free time to come to the Merit Hall to accept tasks and exchange resources.
The commissions here are not like the work of the Evil Punishment Department, which only gives a little money. Many tasks are very generous, and sometimes even those disciples from aristocratic families are tempted.
Gu Xia walked into the gate.
He asked the errand disciple behind the counter for the task list and began to check it.
There are two types of tasks in the Merit Hall, internal tasks and external tasks.
As the name suggests, internal tasks are tasks issued by Tianxuanmen.
For example, the alchemy room lacks a certain rare medicinal material and needs to go into the deep mountains and dangerous places to collect it; a senior brother needs a second-grade weapon and he is willing to buy it with a black crystal.
External tasks are tasks issued by people outside the Tianxuanmen.
Most of them are the court, a wealthy businessman, a gentry, or even other small sects. If there is a problem that cannot be solved, they will issue tasks in the Tianxuanmen and promise various rewards.
Gu Xia took a quick look and found that the task list was full of demon-killing tasks.
"Task content: Blood demons appeared in the mines outside Caishi County and need to be eliminated.
Task difficulty: Xuanliu level.
Task reward: 3,000 taels of silver.
Published by: Caishi County Government"
"Task content:
Blood demons appeared in Qitian Town and need to be eliminated.
Task difficulty: Kaiqiao level.
Task reward: 500 taels of silver.
Published by: Zheng Tianxiang, a rice merchant in Qitian Town"
"..."
Gu Xia also saw some tasks of killing blood demons at the level of entering the internal organs, which rewarded 10,000 taels of gold or more than a dozen Xuan crystals.
"It seems that the blood disaster is really serious! So many counties and towns near Xianfu City have been invaded by blood demons. What is the purpose of the Origin Demon Cult spreading blood demons everywhere?"
Fortunately, most blood demons have the characteristics of entrenching in fixed areas. Unless humans enter their territory, they generally do not kill people.
Otherwise, if so many blood demons move, it is estimated that the entire Yunzhou will be devastated.
After looking for a long time, Gu Xia finally found the task he wanted.
"Task content: There are demons in Qianshui County who kidnap young women. You need to eliminate them and rescue the kidnapped women.
Task difficulty: Xuanliu level
Task reward: 3,000 taels of silver and a plant of Lingyue Qingxin.
Publisher: Qianshui County Government"
These silvers naturally cannot arouse the interest of Gu Xia, who is worth tens of thousands of dollars.
What he cares about is another reward, the herb called Lingyue Qingxin.
It is a second-grade spiritual herb, which naturally contains a clear and clean moon power.
Because it is not very useful, the price is not expensive. But it is very rare. Gu Xia searched all the pharmacies in the city and asked the alchemy room of the sect but could not find this spiritual herb.
As for why he suddenly wanted to find herbs, it was because he wanted to prepare a spiritual medicine.
As we all know, people who have practiced the blood demon technique will get a negative buff. Even if they do not eat blood food, the blood demon evil spirit will gradually accumulate in their bodies until one day they are transformed into blood demons.
Since the Blood Demon Art has appeared for thousands of years, naturally many people want to remove the bug of the Blood Demon Evil Qi.
Among them, the Origin Sect, which has studied the Blood Demon Art the most, is naturally the Origin Sect, which regards the Blood Demon Art as the foundation of its religion.
Unfortunately, after thousands of years of research by countless people, it has finally been proved that the Blood Demon Evil Qi is a curse, which cannot be cured by medicine or method.
However, just like AIDS in Gu Xia's previous life, it cannot be cured, but it can be alleviated and delayed.
In the Origin Sect, someone once developed a prescription that can condense part of the Blood Demon Evil Qi accumulated in the body into an external pill, achieving the effect of reducing the side effects of the Blood Demon Art.
After condensing the evil spirit, this external pill can also be used as a hidden weapon. If someone takes it by mistake, those with weak will will be turned into blood demons on the spot.
The specific effect of this elixir depends on the realm.
The Kaiqiao realm can condense 80%-90% of the blood demon evil spirit in the body, the Xuanliu realm can condense 20%-30% of the blood demon evil spirit in the body, and the Ruzang realm can condense 5%-10% of the blood demon evil spirit. The effect can be ignored at higher realms.
This recipe can be used once in each major realm.
And Gu Xia found this prescription in the Origin Religion document in Gaoguan County.
Originally, there were many precious and rare medicinal materials on it, which he could not match with his wealth, but he gained a lot during the trip to Dajiang City.
So Gu Xia was tempted.
Although he could withstand higher and higher blood demon evil spirits with the increase of soul power, the less he was exposed to this kind of thing, the better.
However, all other medicinal materials were purchased, but the main medicine in the prescription, Yueling Qingxin Flower, could not be found.
Gu Xia found Yuan Yi, but he had no clues.
However, Yuan Yi suggested that Gu Xia try his luck in the Merit Hall, because those who did not have enough silver to issue tasks often used some spiritual medicines and treasure mines instead of rewards.
Gu Xia was lucky, as if he really had "lucky" luck, and found the target as soon as he arrived.
