After that, Qin Di walked out of the grotto-heaven. He looked at his identity token and learned about the Four Sacred Sect's recent developments.
Because the Yin Ghost Sect had suddenly lost a Void Step and several Nascent Soul cultivators, they were not as arrogant as before, and there was an oversight in their encirclement of the Four Sacred Sect. As a result, the success rate of Wang Zhenjun's disciples on missions doubled, and the sect's resources were not as scarce as before. Everyone had a smile on their faces.
Since Qin Di had nothing to do, he went to see Wang Zhenjun to ask for more missions.
Wang Zhenjun looked at the schedule and said, "There's a very dangerous mission. Do you dare to go, Immortal Qin?"
Qin Di smiled, "Uncle-master Wang, please tell me, what is the mission?"
Wang Zhenjun waved his hand to drive everyone out of the hall, then said in a low voice, "You know that the Four Sacred Sect mainly has fire cultivators on Morning Sun Peak. Fire cultivators have a big problem, and that is, it's not easy for them to control the spirit fire in their bodies. If they're trapped on Morning Sun Peak for a long time and don't get enough yin attribute spirit herbs and vegetables, they're more likely to suffer from Qi deviation. This kind of Qi deviation is also called 'Fire Onset Syndrome.'
"In the middle of the Tongtian River, less than ten thousand li from the Yin Mist Peak where Patriarch Dong is, there's a Yin Mausoleum Island. It's rich in 'Yin Mausoleum Fish,' which is very effective in treating Fire Onset Syndrome.
"Yin Mausoleum Island is occupied by Tianbao Hall, so it's considered a neutral force.
"Our Four Sacred Sect sends people to the island to buy Yin Mausoleum Fish every year, but Patriarch Qiu and Patriarch Dong found out, so they sent experts to guard the island and kill anyone suspicious.
"In the past decade, ninety percent of the people we sent to buy Yin Mausoleum Fish died! That's why more and more people are suffering from Fire Onset Syndrome on Morning Sun Peak, which has greatly limited the sect's progress. Some disciples don't even dare to practice fire techniques anymore.
"Your current mission is to buy Yin Mausoleum Fish! Let me tell you, it's a matter of life and death! Think about it carefully before you make a decision. "
Qin Di thought for a moment and said, "I have Yin Spring Water here. It's even better than Yin Mausoleum Fish in treating Fire Onset Syndrome! However, I couldn't easily take it out. Otherwise, it would be hard to explain it to others. Also, I came here to train myself. It is not good to always stay at Morning Sun Peak. I have to go to Yin Tomb Island. "
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly had an idea. He took out two black bone pellets from his storage ring. Each pellet was like a black grape, black and shiny. He said, "Martial Uncle Wang, find someone to try it. Soak it in water, then use the water to soak the spirit herbs. Refine it into 'Essence Yin Pill' and give it to the person with the fire hair. See if it has any effect."
Wang Zhenjun raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's that?"
Qin Di didn't dare to hide anything. He said, "This is the 'Extreme Yin Pill' left by a Nascent Soul Cultivator of the Yin Ghost Sect, just like the Buddha's Sarira."
Wang Zhenjun thought for a moment and said, "We'll have to ask our sect's alchemy grandmaster to carefully verify if there are any toxic side effects. Only then can I start concocting pills. "
Qin Di nodded. "Martial Uncle Wang, you're right. This is not a small matter. I still have a dozen or so of these Extreme Yin Pills. If they work, I can contribute them. As for buying Yin Tomb Fish, I'll accept this mission! "
Wang Zhenjun took out a storage ring and said, "There are three hundred Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires collected by our sect in this ring. I want to exchange them for at least one thousand third-grade Yin Tomb Fish! Any less and we'll lose money! "
Qin Di asked, "Can this ring hold one thousand spiritual fish?"
Wang Zhenjun smiled. "There's a lot of space inside, more than enough to hold twenty thousand fish!"
"Do I have to have third-grade spiritual fish? Can I exchange them for fourth, fifth, or sixth grade Yin Tomb Fish? "
"If you can get them, that's even better! Even ten sixth-grade Yin Tomb Fish are worth more than a thousand third-grade ones. For low-level disciples, just a little bit is enough to cure their fire hair. "
"Good! I'll set off now and see if I can get a few sixth-grade spiritual fish. "
Wang Zhenjun handed him a jade slip and said, "This is a map of the area around Yin Tomb Island. Take a good look. If you complete this mission, I'll give you two meritorious deeds! "
Qin Di slapped the jade slip on his forehead and set off.
Sitting in the Vast Ocean Boat, he looked at the three hundred Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires and realized that they were mainly at Black and Yellow Grade, which were relatively low. However, it didn't matter to him. As long as he used the Fire Sacrifice technique, they could all be used as raw materials for the high-level spiritual fire to advance continuously.
Therefore, he was prepared to keep the three hundred Heaven and Earth Spirit Fires and exchange them for other spiritual materials with Tianbao Hall. Or, if possible, he could go into the water himself and catch a few high-level spiritual fish.
Qin Di flew forward unhurriedly. In the end, he encountered a Nascent Soul Perfected Lord less than three hundred li away from Morning Sun Peak. This Nascent Soul Perfected Lord was different from the rest as he released his flying sword from a few li away!
The sword was extremely ferocious like a meteor from beyond the heavens, arriving three hundred feet away in the blink of an eye.
Shocked, Qin Di wanted to dodge, but it was too late!
He knew that it was another spirit treasure flying sword. He was unlucky – it seemed like he had encountered a sword cultivator!
Spirit treasure flying swords could make turns so the other party would catch up to him even if he tried to dodge.
In his desperation, Qin Di did not have time to think of anything else and could only open his mouth to spit out the Green Firmament Sword!
The Green Firmament Sword was only an inch long when it was released. However, it expanded with the wind and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a gigantic sword that was ten feet long and met the incoming spirit treasure flying sword head-on!
Thereafter, there was a crisp 'ding' followed by a faint wail. Clearly, the spirit treasure flying sword was severely injured as it turned around and flew back!
The Green Firmament Sword chased relentlessly and collided twice consecutively. With a 'poof', it actually snapped the other party's spirit treasure flying sword!
Far away, the Nascent Soul's spirit consciousness was injured as well and his face turned pale!
He had not expected to encounter such a tough opponent in his attempt to intercept a Golden Core. For a sword cultivator, having their only spirit treasure snapped was equivalent to losing half of their cultivation.
Therefore, he had no desire to continue fighting and turned to flee swiftly.
Unfortunately, the Nascent Soul's opponent was Qin Di who was riding on a Grade 9 spirit weapon, Vast Ocean Boat, at an extremely fast speed. That was why he was beheaded by the Green Firmament Sword before he could get far!
The Nascent Soul left his body and fled towards the north as fast as the wind!
However, the Green Firmament Sword continued its relentless pursuit and sliced the Nascent Soul into pieces. Furthermore, each piece was attached to the Green Firmament Sword and could no longer struggle!
At the same time, a thick plume of black smoke rose into the skies!
A Nascent Soul was dead! Another Nascent Soul was dead!
This had happened not far from Morning Sun Peak, so many people had seen it clearly!
This time round, even Wang Zhenjun saw it and could not help but narrow his eyes, thinking to himself, "Indeed, this lad has a spirit treasure on him! Both of them fought head-on and he actually managed to kill Perfected Lord Ghost Sword! Perfected Lord Ghost Sword is at mid-stage Nascent Soul and has been there for many years. He might even be able to advance to late-stage Nascent Soul in another hundred years! That Grade 2 spirit treasure flying sword of his has killed countless people of Four Sacred Sect. Now, he's finally getting his comeuppance! "
The two Patriarchs Bu Xu who were drinking tea at the peak witnessed this as well.
Tie Xu Lu could not help but slap the stone table and praise, "Good lad! To think that there would be such a talent in the corners of the world! "
Yanxu Yang looked at the rising black smoke quietly and said indifferently, "This lad has a lot of tricks up his sleeves! A few days ago, he revealed a wooden spear and now, a high-grade spirit treasure flying sword. Furthermore, I heard that he even used a high-grade spirit fire to burn a few Nascent Souls to death with a Thousand Li Scarlet Ground. You should know that to burn a Nascent Soul to death, one would need at least a Heaven-grade spirit fire. I even suspect that he has an immortal fire with him! "
Tie Xu Lu was surprised. "Immortal fire? How is that possible? There are so many Perfected Cultivators in the entire Morning Sun Peak. Other than Senior Brother Gu Xutian who jumped into the Sun Lake who has a Grade 2 immortal fire, Senior Brother Cheng Xuchun and Senior Brother Yan both have a Grade 1 immortal fire! I've nurtured them for so many years and I only have two Heaven-grade spirit fires. I've been standing at the doorstep of immortal fire for a long time but have not been able to cross over! It's depressing to think about it! "
Yanxu Yang counted on his fingers for a while and said, "Call that lad back later! Whether or not your Heaven-grade spirit fire can level up depends on him! "
"Ah? Really? "
Tie Xu Lu stood up excitedly and wanted to fly down the peak to call Qin Di back!
Yanxu Yang quickly pulled him back. "Junior Brother Tie, if you call him back, the mission will be wasted! According to the sect rules, you can't return without completing the mission or you will be punished severely! "
"This …" Tie Xu Lu had no choice but to sit back down.
"I hope that the lad can come back safely and not die outside!"
Yanxu Yang smiled. "Don't worry, I've already calculated. This lad has great luck and will be the key to the rise of our Four Sacred Sect!"
"Senior Brother Yan, you rarely praise people."
