Chapter 5 is not easily attained
Mr. Chen wishes to retain his legal resident status in Qingshi City and is required to pay five spirit stones each month
High investment often signifies high returns
The woman turned her eyes slightly, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Young master, this... this is a family training task, isn't it?"
"I am spending money; it is I who should be asking you, not the other way around," Chen Taizhong said impatiently. "Two spirits is not a small amount... First, tell me, what level is the task for the Sunfire Fruit?"
However, loose cultivators are known for their humble lifestyle, and it is rare for them to encounter wealthy patrons. If a loose cultivator were to have an extraordinary experience and obtain a shocking inheritance, it would be impossible for them to be completely ignorant of the immortal realm
He glanced sideways at the young man beside him and said, "Care for a drink?"
However, a high-ranking celestial being would hardly concern themselves with such a trivial amount of money
After much deliberation, he finally chose a task related to daily life—hunting the antlers of the Thunder Deer
Thus, he stated plainly, "Speak as much as you can, recount the information that the lower realms are unaware of; if you do well, there will be rewards"
Two spirits, buy half, middle-aged people are not aggressive buyers and sellers
The middle-aged man ate very slowly, savoring the rabbit with careful chewing, taking almost half an hour to finish his meal
His spider silk has not yet been redeemed, but he is not in a hurry to redeem it. For a month's work, the three spirits will redeem it—if he redeems it now, he will be left with nothing.
The next day, after checking out of the hotel, he exchanged a disposable lighter for the privilege of spending half a day drinking tea at a tea stall—many people here possess fire-related celestial arts, yet without any fluctuations of celestial energy, they can still produce fire, which is somewhat of a curious little novelty
Casually asking, he then realized that rabbits are not poisonous and can be eaten; however, those who practice cold attribute cultivation methods are better off eating this food sparingly
However, this is an official task. At https://mhetushucomcom, spending a little money can ensure that you receive absolutely accurate information, which is still worth it.
How can one bear this situation
The Thunder Deer is a Level 2 Wild Beast, known for its incredible speed and ability to unleash lightning in an instant. Generally speaking, even Level 5 Wanderers cannot contend with them—after being struck by lightning, the victim will be paralyzed for a moment, during which time the Thunder Deer has already made its escape.
The task reward is 2 spirit stones, and posting the task also cost 2 spirit stones. With 27 spirit stones, plus the 2 spirit stones returned as a deposit, it was originally 29, but in the blink of an eye, it has become 25.
Moreover, that half rabbit was sold for money, so how could one feel justified in drinking this fine wine for free
That task... is not feasible," the woman shook her head, "It should be considered a combination of level one plus level five, or it requires a special artifact with a concealing aura to be completed.
Chen Taizhong did not think much further, and following the advice of the middle-aged woman, he purchased a book on the introduction to plants and animals, as well as a map of Jizhou. Subsequently, under her guidance, he rented a daily rental apartment.
The middle-aged man clapped the storage bag, took out a gourd, and then retrieved a cup, pouring out a glass of fine wine. The aroma of the wine wafted through the air, truly worthy of being produced in the realm of immortals
The young man sitting in meditation remained steadfast, welcoming the influx of spiritual energy without reservation. Even as the energy surged in wave after wave, each more potent than the last, his body seemed like an endless abyss, effortlessly absorbing the spiritual energy.
This truly reflects the stench of wine and meat in the wealthy households, while the bones of the frozen dead lie on the road
It turns out that the fire-breathing rabbit encountered by Chen Taizhong in the outskirts is a Level 1 weak wild beast, the bat is a Level 1 strong wild beast, the earthworm is a Level 2 wild beast, and the wild boar in the forest is a Level 3 wild beast
Thus, he recalled the fire-breathing rabbit he had killed himself, and the dead bat, which he did not put into the Xumi Ring, finding it disgusting
"This task is simply not something a first-level celestial being can accomplish," Chen Taizhong retorted, feeling angered by the other party's words. "The Flame Turtle hasn't awakened, yet we've encountered too many formidable entities along the way. Can't you clarify this?"
Three Spirits, Chen Taizhong negotiated, a fire-breathing rabbit, which is about one spirit, he learned about it yesterday, but after it is cooked, plus the seasonings from Earth, three spirit stones can buy half of it, this is not considered asking for too much.
By the time he arrived at the location of the Thunder Deer, it was essentially midnight. To avoid exposing the Xumi Ring, he held the Fire-Spitting Rabbit in his hand, lit a fire, and then disassembled the rabbit into a series of skewers, which he placed over the flames to roast.
He put the cup and gourd into the storage bag, stood up, glanced at the young man who was meditating, and was about to turn and leave when he suddenly froze, "This spiritual energy..."
Buddy, where did I bring a bodyguard? Chen Taizhong glanced at him, knowing there was a story behind this, but he wasn't in a hurry to find out. Instead, he casually issued a task—newcomers seeking explanations about the immortal realm, with a reward of two spirit stones per day.
It is precisely for this reason that the task of collecting the Sunfruit is extremely challenging. High-level Immortals must accompany low-level Immortals in order to complete it. The high-level Immortals lead the way past the rabbits, bats, earthworms, wild boars, and centipede swarms, allowing the low-level Immortals to sneak in and gather the resources.
During this half day, he finished reading the book in his hands and firmly memorized it, then went to the task courtyard
Chen Taizhong shook his head; with his first-level Immortal Wanderer realm, he did not wish to casually consume the provisions of others in this desolate wilderness
However, Chen Taizhong felt that all of this was worthwhile for the sake of the books, as he had meditated for an entire night and vaguely sensed that he was on the verge of breaking through to the second level of the Immortal Wanderer. It is important to note that he had only seriously cultivated in the Immortal Realm for half a day.
Chen Taizhong swiftly eliminated the rabbit in his hand like a whirlwind, then closed his eyes to meditate. The spiritual energy of the celestial realm was abundant, and he was reluctant to waste even a moment.
The woman's speculation arises from Chen's complete ignorance of the fairy realm, yet he is still willing to expend spirit stones to issue a task—this indicates he is either a wealthy rogue from the lower realm or a scion of a noble family
I want to know as comprehensively as possible about various news from the celestial realm," Chen Taizhong declared boldly. Although he had just had three blazing sun fruits snatched from him, he still retained some of the feeling of having ascended from the lower realm.
He confidently accepted the task, using the remaining three spirit stones as collateral. He then obtained information about a habitat of the Thunder Deer and wasted no time, heading directly out of the city.
Living in the celestial realm is no easy feat
"Did the middle-aged man throw three spirit stones to him to hunt deer antlers?"
This daily rental is not expensive, at two silver coins per day. The inns on the street charge at least three silver coins per day, and only those at five silver coins can offer a relatively rich aura of immortality—of course, there are also those at one silver coin per day, but those are dormitory-style accommodations.
Hmm," Chen Taizhong snorted, tucking three spirit stones into his pocket. He casually drew a line over the campfire, "This half is yours, and this half is mine.
Some cultivation families, in order to nurture talent, do not hesitate to allow their members who ascend from the lower realms to first adapt to the environment, while the family itself remains in the background
Chen Taizhong is a first-level游仙, posing no significant threat to the Thunder Deer. However, through his understanding of this world, he discovers that... he seems capable of defeating monsters beyond his level.
Before long, someone signed up; it was a middle-aged woman with darting eyes, clearly a person of clever disposition
As for the stiffness caused by lightning, this is quite manageable. One can place an iron pot on the head, tie an iron chain to the ears of the pot, letting it dangle down to the ground, and then attach a heavy iron block. This will do the trick.
The centipedes in the valley are also classified as Tier 3 wild beasts; however, there are simply too many of these centipedes, along with the Tier 4 centipede king.
Then he spent 3 spirit stones to buy some meat and put it into the Xumi ring, spent 1 spirit stone to treat the woman to a meal, and 2 spirit stones for accommodation. The next day, he gave the woman a reward of 1 spirit stone, leaving him with only 3 spirit stones in hand
The antlers of the Thunder Deer contain pure lightning power, making them most suitable for low-level lightning cultivators to use for their training
It was released by the youngest daughter of the fallen nobleman Nant. The woman glanced around and lowered her voice to speak, "Miss Nancy... She has a white pet mouse, of the fire attribute, which loves to eat blazing sun fruits, consuming at least three every day, hence she has been purchasing them in large quantities for a long time"
However, this deer is quite peculiar; it seems to deeply understand the adage "the elephant burns itself with its tusks, and the clam splits its body for a pearl." When it cannot escape in time, it releases lightning between its antlers, destroying its own foundation and leaving the hunters disappointed.
No wonder that guy thought I was looking for a bodyguard, Chen Taizhong also felt quite speechless—if it weren't for my friend's ability to conceal his presence, the deposit for the task would probably have been deducted
After Chen Taizhong bought the books and maps, he was left with only ten spirit coins. When he inquired about the food here, the woman clearly informed him that the food from the lower realm has too little spiritual energy. While it may give a feeling of fullness in the immortal realm, it truly does not stave off hunger
However, he put the rabbit inside, thinking that this thing might be edible
Miss Nancy's pet mouse consumes ninety Solar Fruits each month, which are valued at twenty-seven spirit stones—along with the monthly task release fee of sixty spirit stones, totaling eighty-seven spirit stones
Seeing him speechless, the woman was at a loss for words, so she turned her eyes and asked, "Young master, do you know who issued this task?"
The fourth-level wild beasts, along with the typical fourth-level wandering immortals, may not necessarily be able to contend with them. Furthermore, with the presence of numerous third-level centipedes, it is not an exaggeration to say that even one or two fifth-level wandering immortals would be fortunate to escape from such an onslaught
The middle-aged man glanced at him, said nothing further, picked up his drink and took a small sip, then grabbed a rabbit and began to gnaw on it
However, the few pitiful spirit stones in his pocket might not even be enough to purchase such fine wine
A level two earthworm, he can still knock it out, a level three wild boar... ? ... That's because he is unwilling to bother with it, as there is no income. If he really wanted to bother, how significant is it to kill a wild boar?
In the next moment, the ethereal energy from all directions gradually surged forth, and as time passed, the speed increased, all rushing towards the body that was in meditation.
Uh... Chen Taizhong smacked his lips, wanting to say something, but ultimately remained silent. So, after more than two days of hard work, all he did was help someone collect mouse food
I don't know, Chen Taizhong shook his head, "This task is truly bizarre"
The roasted beast is a wild creature, yet the seasonings are brought from Earth. The reputation of the Gluttonous Empire is not unfounded. Just as the rabbit was about to be perfectly roasted, a figure flashed by, and a middle-aged man sat down, "It smells so good!"
"If you don't clarify, you also brought bodyguards with you," the staff said impatiently, waving a hand. "It's fine, step aside, don't interfere with my work"
This is mine! '' Chen Taizhong spoke lightly, knowing that a first-level wandering immortal is a low-ranking figure in the immortal realm, but although their strength is at the bottom, one cannot lose in terms of momentum
