"Alright, I'll accept this mission."
The reward of 5000 points was not enough to move Du Feng. The challenge of choosing any combat skill on the second floor of the Martial Arts Pavilion was already very tempting. After breaking through to the Powang Realm, he wouldn't have to spend money to choose a combat skill on the second floor of the Martial Arts Pavilion. This condition was indeed tempting.
Looking at the third condition, he would be able to obtain 10 points for every enemy he killed. Compared to the 300 points awarded for each Ghost Emperor captured alive, the Ghost Emperor was much weaker. Killing an enemy only gave 10 points, which didn't seem like much. But this enemy didn't just refer to human martial artists, but also demonic beasts, ghost cultivators, all kinds of murderers, monsters, and even the mechanical people in the ancient ruins.
In short, anything that threatened Tang Jiaojiao would be judged as an enemy. So as long as she didn't die, Du Feng would be able to get points for every enemy he killed.
The reason why Du Feng dared to accept this mission was not only because of the reward of points, but also because of another important reason. That was the condition to enter the Tianhu Ancient Ruins. Cultivation couldn't exceed the fifth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm. In other words, the martial artists who entered were only at the fifth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm.
He himself was currently at the fourth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm, so it wouldn't be difficult for him to advance to the fifth level. Those top experts in the Heaven Seizing Realm basically stayed at the peak of the ninth level of the Cultivation to accumulate strength, preparing to break through to the Powang Realm.
For example, the first ranked Killing God Bai Qi, the third ranked Jun Moye, and the ninth ranked who was bribed by the Nangong Family were all at the peak of the ninth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm in Cultivation. They could be said to be invincible in the Heaven Seizing Realm, but they posed no threat to this mission.
The Tianhu Ancient Ruins was a bit interesting. The Cultivation restriction was actually stuck halfway. Under normal circumstances, the Cultivation restriction of the secret realm was a certain realm. For example, the Three Mountain Secret Realm's Cultivation restriction was the Origin Realm. Therefore, most martial artists would stop their Cultivation at the peak of the ninth level of the Origin Realm. After a few years of accumulation, they would enter and then break through to the Void Sea Realm.
However, the fifth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm was different. Very few people would allow their Cultivation to stop at this realm for a long time. Unless one was stuck at the fifth level for a long time, as long as one made progress in Cultivation, they would naturally advance to the sixth level.
Good, good, good. Du Feng was full of confidence for this mission. It was really hard to find a martial artist within the fifth level of the Heaven Seizing Realm who was stronger than him. The Buddha Light Palm that he had learned was considered one of the top combat skills on the first floor of the Martial Scripture Pavilion. Coupled with the existence of the Origin of All Beasts, Du Tulong, he should not lose to anyone of the same level.
"You better think it through. Once you accept the mission, you can't cancel it halfway."
"Alright!"
Seeing Du Feng nod in affirmation, Cang Jingsong finally activated this mission. When the mission was activated, Du Feng was dumbfounded. This was because he realized that the same mission had been issued for the third time. In other words, before him, there were two other people who accepted the same mission, and the request was to protect Tang Jiaojiao to find the Tianhu Mirror in the Tianhu Ruins.
The mission points were so high, and the restrictions were naturally high. Du Feng definitely could not cancel the mission halfway. In other words, no matter what the reason was, he could not abandon the person called Tang Jiaojiao. Although the mission card did not say it clearly, Du Feng could guess it. A mission that required the protection of three genius disciples from the Seven Basaltic Mansions, the identity of the mission was not ordinary noble.
If this person called Tang Jiaojiao died halfway, then he would not be able to come back alive. Even if he escaped halfway, he would probably be chased by the Seven Basaltic Mansions. The Seven Basaltic Mansions had taught so many experts, and the kill order issued was much more powerful than the Nangong Family's kill order. It was basically equivalent to a death sentence.
"Wow, who is this Tang Jiaojiao?"
Du Feng could not control his curiosity and asked.
"Ahem, it doesn't matter who she is. Anyway, you won't feel good even if she loses a hair."
Since Du Feng had already accepted the mission and could not cancel it, Cang Jingsong did not bother to be polite. Well, it was too late to figure it out now. This old fox had dug a hole for himself.
Tang Jiaojiao. This person's surname was Tang, and her name was so arrogant. Her elder must be a very important person in the Seven Basaltic Mansions. Du Feng began to analyze from the information he had. The surname of the governor was not Tang, so Tang Jiaojiao was definitely not his direct relative. Even if she was, she would at most be his niece.
The deputy governor could not be Tang either, and it was said that he was alone without a partner, offspring, or any relatives, so he could be excluded. Other than the two of them, the person with the highest status in the Seven Basaltic Mansions should be the Pavilion Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion.
"Boss Cang, I just want to ask, what is the name of our pavilion master?"
Du Feng really did not know the name of the Pavilion Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion, because there was no relevant information about him in the outside world.
"Not bad, kid. You're quite perceptive."
"Since you've thought it through, then do as you see fit."
Cang Jingsong did not answer directly, but he smiled and patted Du Feng's shoulder. Everything was said without words.
'Damn …' Du Feng felt like ten thousand horses were galloping in his heart. He would be a fool if he could not tell. 'The family of the Pavilion Master of the Martial Arts Pavilion, and from the sound of it, they must be his direct relatives. Judging from their age, they were most likely the granddaughter of the Pavilion Master. Of course, they could also be his daughter. In short, they had the same surname, so they were definitely not strangers.
Cang Jingsong had really dug a big hole. On the surface, it looked like he was giving Du Feng a chance to earn a lot of points, but in fact, he was pushing him into a fire pit. If he did not protect them well, he would basically have no way out. Within the four continents and two polar regions, there was no place that the Seven Basaltic Mansions could not threaten. Even if they hid on some islands, they would probably be found by passing tourists.
Du Feng's only choice was to bring Tang Jiaojiao back safely. Even if he died, he could not let anything happen to Tang Jiaojiao. This was because he still had to take care of his mother, Liu Fei, cousin Murong Mansha, cousin Du Yu 'er, and all his relatives in the East Continent. Even Yuan Cheng, Pi Weiwei, and the rest would probably be implicated.
This was a hot potato, and he hoped that Miss Tang Jiaojiao's temper would be better. If she was too spoiled, this trip would be troublesome.
"This is my third bodyguard. Can we set off now?"
