As the puppet soldier fell, a circle of white halo suddenly lit up in the center of the secret room, spreading in all directions.
Within the white light, countless silver runes appeared, and they began to dance up and down around the center. After a series of intertwining, they soon formed a white formation.
With a flash of light, a palm-sized token appeared in the center of the array.
"This is a teleportation array …" Liu Ming put away the Heavy Water Droplet and restrained the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison on his body. After looking at the teleportation array for a while, he thought so.
Since the array appeared, it meant that he had passed the test here.
Moreover, this token was rather similar to the identity token, so it should be used to accept missions on the Inner Board.
Liu Ming immediately bent down to pick up the token and walked slowly into the center of the array.
The teleportation array suddenly lit up with a dazzling light, then the space fluctuated.
Liu Ming only felt that the surrounding scenery was blurred for a while. When he came back to his senses, he had already appeared in the corner of a wide hall.
"This should be the inner hall." Liu Ming held the token and looked around a few times.
The layout of this place was very similar to that of the previous hall. Four stone pillars with coiling dragons supported the four corners, and there was also a slightly smaller jade disc in the center of the hall. It glowed with a faint silver light, and there were also lines of missions listed on it.
It was just that the words "Xuan Notice" appeared above the jade disc was golden.
Unlike the bustling crowd in the outer hall, there were only twenty people here. It seemed very spacious, and everyone was wearing the same gray hooded clothes as Liu Ming. Other than their height and weight, there was not the slightest aura to be felt.
No one in the crowd spoke. Compared with the bustling outer hall, this place was filled with a quiet and dull atmosphere.
As soon as Liu Ming appeared, a few people in the crowd around the jade disc glanced at him, then they immediately turned their heads. They obviously didn't care.
Seeing this, Liu Ming didn't care. He walked behind the crowd, glanced slightly, and immediately cast his gaze on the inner notice jade disc in front of him.
…
At the same time, in a secret room of the Xuan Hall, a fat disciple in a yellow robe was half-lying on a chair, holding a disk array with a leisurely expression. Most of the jade runes on it had been shattered, and only a yellow bronze mirror in the center was still intact.
The bronze mirror was showing a video. It was the scene of the battle between Liu Ming and the puppet soldier. The battle process was not long. The two fought for less than 10 minutes, and the winner was decided.
The disciple in a yellow robe glanced casually. When he saw the dragon tiger qi phantasm displayed by Liu Ming, he couldn't help being slightly startled. His half-lying body sat up a little.
"Which idiot in the inner door is this? He actually practiced such a stupid technique like the Tiger Dragon Hell Prison, but it seems that he hasn't even reached the second level yet. He is probably a newly joined inner disciple." The disciple in a yellow robe scratched his head and muttered.
The fat man shook his head. He flicked his sleeve, and the image on the bronze mirror disappeared in a flash.
He lazily lay back down on the chair again. He rummaged around in his bosom and pulled out a roasted golden chicken drumstick from somewhere. He ate it with big bites as if he had completely forgotten about what had just happened.
…
In the inner hall of the Xuan Hall.
Liu Ming had browsed through the missions on the jade disc at this moment, and his face suddenly became a little dignified.
The missions here were really more dangerous than the outer notice. Most of the missions made Liu Ming feel a chill in his heart. But at the same time, the contribution points as a reward were extremely generous. It was far from what the outer hall could compare with.
For example, one of them: Collect the tentacles of the firewire ant, each reward is 500 contribution points.
Liu Ming had seen in the classics of the Changfeng Association that the firewire ant was a fierce insect beast that appeared in the volcanic area. Its body was about two to three meters long, and it was very difficult to deal with. The beastkin fire it spat was comparable to the fire of the earth lung. Ordinary spiritual weapons would melt upon contact, and its strength was comparable to the cultivator of the Condensation Period.
If that was the case, it would be fine. What was more troublesome about this insect beast was that they always came in groups, and the number was easily hundreds or thousands.
The blood locust beasts that he, Xin Yuan, Fang Yao and others hunted previously only had the strength of the Spirit Apostle Stage. Only the king beast was at the Condensation Period. They also set up an array, took a lot of effort, and lost one of their companions to annihilate them. Liu Ming even used one of his trump cards, the Golden Fallen Sand.
When he thought of hundreds of firewire ants of the Condensation Period spraying beastkin fire, Liu Ming couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle.
Another one: Hunt the colorful dream butterfly and obtain the medicinal stone in its body. Each medicinal stone will be rewarded with 1,000 contribution points.
The colorful dream butterfly was a kind of beastkin that looked like a butterfly. Its strength was not strong. It was generally only around the Condensation Period early stage. If it was one-on-one, an ordinary Condensation Period disciple could easily kill it, and this beast did not appear in groups.
An adult male colorful dream butterfly would condense a medicinal stone in its body. This kind of medicinal stone was an excellent medicinal material and one of the main materials to refine several superb elixirs.
Although this colorful dream butterfly was weak, this kind of beastkin lived in the night miasma flower group all year round.
The night miasma flower was a kind of exotic flower on the Middle Sky Continent. It usually grew in a humid environment and formed a sea of flowers for hundreds of miles. At the same time, it constantly emitted a kind of highly toxic miasma. If ordinary cultivators accidentally inhaled it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Therefore, for the cultivators of the Condensation Period, going to such a place to hunt the colorful dream butterfly was not enough.
After Liu Ming finished reading, he was a little speechless.
On this inner notice, he even saw a mission to hunt the blood locust king beast's beastkin core. The reward was not low; there were thousands of contribution points.
But without the help of his accomplices and array, he was not confident to face the sea beast that could manipulate blood to attack again. Not to mention where to find this blood locust beast group in this vast sea.
Liu Ming searched for a while until there were only a few people left on the scene. Finally, he raised the token and waved it at a certain spot on the ranking board. The inner ranking board immediately cast a bright light onto the token in a flash.
He took a mission to collect snowclaw spider eggs. Each egg could be exchanged for 100 contribution points.
If he was lucky, he might be able to get enough contribution points to condense the sword embryo at the Five Elements Spirit Cave in two or three times.
Beastkin like the snowclaw spider often moved in groups of three to five. Their strength was also around the Condensation State. It was quite dangerous, but compared with the firewire ant, the night miasma flower sea was much safer.
Of course, the main reason why Liu Ming chose this mission was that the mission issuer directly provided the approximate range of the snowclaw spider. It was in another mountain range not far from this Thousands Spirit Mountain Range.
After taking the mission, he didn't plan to stay here for a long time. As he glanced around, he found that there were more than a dozen small teleportation arrays in the corners of the hall.
Liu Ming immediately learned from others and stepped into a magic array. He appeared on a mountain peak near Xuan Hall in a flash.
He immediately took off the gray robe on his body and flew toward the Piaohong Courtyard.
Liu Ming made a little preparation, and at the same time, he carefully thought about the mission before and after. He set off early the next morning and left Thousands Spirit Mountain.
Not long after he left, a green light fell in front of his cave house. After the light faded, a person was revealed. It was a young woman wearing an inner disciple costume.
This woman was only about twenty years old. She had a ring bun. She had a beautiful nose and cherry lips. Her skin was as white as snow, and her eyes were full of spirit. She looked like a person in a painting.
She took a closer look in front of the cave house, then she nodded. She stepped forward and knocked on the two copper rings on the door.
However, the stone door was closed, and there was no sign of opening.
"I'm really unlucky. This Younger Brother Liu is not in the cave house. It seems that I can only come next time." The woman muttered to herself and called out for a while. She found that the cave house was still closed, so she could only leave in disappointment.
At this time, Liu Ming had already left the Thousands Spirit Mountain Range, so he naturally knew nothing about what happened outside the cave house.
Half a month later, he was in a mountain range that stretched for thousands of miles in the east of the spiritual mountain.
The mountains here looked abnormally tall and steep. The mountains were like huge wolf teeth inserted into the ground. From time to time, the roar of beastkin could be faintly heard from it, which added a bit of strange color to this place.
The mountain rocks on each mountain peak were a kind of black-gray rough rock. Huge ancient trees grew among them, and the vines were entangled. The ground could rarely be seen.
Compared with the beautiful Thousands Spirit Mountain Range, there was more of a kind of rough vitality here, but there was no immortal spirit at all.
This was the destination of Liu Ming's trip, the Black Sun Mountain Range.
At the foot of this mountain, there was a market called the Black Sun Market.
Liu Ming did some research before coming. He knew that although this market was not big, it was quite famous in this area.
The reason was that the Black Sun Mountain Range was the closest place to the Thousands Spirit Mountain to provide beastkin materials. It was also the most common place for many Taiqing Gate disciples to come for training.
There were many casual cultivators and cultivation families in the Middle Sky Continent who wanted to have a little relationship with Taiqing Gate. For a long time, many foreign cultivators came here. They occasionally brought some special items which were eye-opening, attracting more cultivators to come.
After Liu Ming landed nearby, he did not immediately enter the market. Instead, he found a secluded place nearby to change his Taiqing Gate disciple costume and put on an ordinary green shirt. He looked like an ordinary cultivator, then he walked in slowly.
The entire Black Sun Market was surrounded by a simple wall, covering an area of about a mile. There was a main street running east-west inside. On both sides were houses of different heights. There were buildings, attics, and many low huts. It looked very messy.
As Liu Ming walked in, he found that there were many people wearing strange clothes in the crowd. Some even had beastkin spiritual pets beside them, causing pedestrians to avoid them. Most people were not surprised by this.
There were mostly shops on both sides of the houses. Most of them were shops selling many beastkin materials. There were also shops selling various elixirs, talismans, and spiritual weapons.
Liu Ming walked around inside, and he really found a lot of rare things, such as some rare ores, medicinal materials, and even beastkin cores that he had never heard of.
After walking casually for a while, he turned and walked into a shop selling the Black Sun Mountain Range topographic map.
After a quarter of an hour, Liu Ming walked out with a calm face. There was a map of the mountain range in his arms. He quickly left the market and entered the mountain range alone.
