Peerless Sword God

The next day, Lin Chen came to the inner sect mission hall early.

The missions in the mission hall are divided into seven stars. Most of the inner sect disciples choose two-star or three-star missions. As for the higher-star missions, unless they are extremely talented and have strong strength, other inner sect disciples can't complete them at all.

"Three-star mission requires a level 4 high-level demon beast four-armed demon ape inner pill. Completing the mission will reward 200 contribution points and 800 low-grade spirit stones. Note, this mission requires going deep into the Molian Mountains. It is not recommended for warriors with cultivation below the middle stage of Tiangang Realm to accept this mission."

"Three-star mission, destroy Huwei Village. Crime: Huwei Village burned, killed, looted, committed all kinds of evil, and looted passing caravans. Completing the mission will reward 350 contribution points and 1,000 low-grade spirit stones. Note, the owner of Huwei Village is in the middle stage of Tiangang Realm, with great sword skills, three subordinates in the early stage of Tiangang Realm, and dozens of body-refining realm warriors. It is recommended that several disciples in the middle stage of Tiangang Realm go together."

"Three-star mission,..."

...

Lin Chen shook his head slightly as he read along. Most of these tasks take quite a long time and are not suitable for Lin Chen.

The first three-star task is more suitable for Lin Chen than other tasks, but this task does not indicate the location of the four-armed demon ape. If Lin Chen takes this task, it will be a problem to find the four-armed demon ape, and the monsters killed by Lin Chen may not contain inner elixir.

Lin Chen pondered for a moment and planned to look at the four-star task first.

With his current cultivation and strength, it is not easy to accept the four-star task. The four-star task is generally accepted by the inner disciples of the middle stage of the Tiangang Realm. If the warriors of the early stage of the Tiangang Realm accept it, there is a great possibility of death.

And Lin Chen is only at the early stage of the eighth level of the body refining realm at this moment.

But now he has no choice. These three-star tasks take too long, but Lin Chen does not have so much time to waste.

However, just when Lin Chen was about to look at the four-star task, suddenly, an elder of the task hall came over, holding a task card in his hand, and walked straight to the three-star task column, and then placed the task card in his hand at the highest place of the three-star task.

This task is obviously not easy, otherwise the elder would not put it at the top.

Seeing this scene, Lin Chen stopped and subconsciously looked at the task that the elder had just issued.

"Three-star task, protect the Wang family caravan to go to the Molian Mountains to collect ice stones. The Wang family is located in Tianling Town. After accepting this task, please rush to Tianling Town immediately. Completing the task will reward 200 contribution points and 7,000 low-grade spirit stones."

Lin Chen read it once and his eyes lit up immediately.

"That's it!"

This task is the same as the first three-star task that Lin Chen saw before, and it also requires going deep into the Molian Mountains. But unlike that task, this task only needs to protect the Wang family caravan from entering the Molian Mountains. The entire task from beginning to end takes only a few days to complete, which just meets Lin Chen's requirements.

Lin Chen reached out to take the task off and recorded it with the elders in the task hall.

The elder was slightly stunned when he saw Lin Chen accept the task that had just been put up, but perhaps because Lin Chen, with the seventh level of the body refining realm, had completed the task of killing the butcher Lao Gao alone last time, the elder was quite impressed with him, so he was not too surprised to see Lin Chen accept this three-star task.

However, even so, he still said with a serious face: "Lin Chen, your cultivation is still in the body refining realm after all. This task is very difficult, and I suggest you be cautious."

Lin Chen shook his head and said: "Thank you for your kindness, elder, but I am confident that I can complete the task."

Hearing Lin Chen's answer, the elder said no more, nodded, recorded the task, and said: "Lin Chen, I wish you good luck."

Lin Chen smiled, put away the task card, went to the sect to rent a black horse, and then went straight to Tianling Town.

Tianling Town is located in the northwest of Tianji Sect, about three days away from here.

Tianling Town is next to the Molian Mountains, so the trade here is prosperous. There are many caravans and warriors going in and out of the Molian Mountains, either picking herbs or killing monsters.

The mission that Lin Chen accepted was to protect the Wang family caravan to collect ice stones in the depths of the Molian Mountains.

The Wang family also discovered the ice stones by accident. There is a cold pond in the Molian Mountains, which contains a lot of ice stones. After receiving this news, the Wang family was overjoyed. Their family makes a living by making weapons, and this ice stone is a precious material for many weapons. The weapons made by integrating ice stones are much harder than ordinary weapons.

So, the Wang family arranged two waves of people to go to the Molian Mountains to collect ice stones, but they all failed.

The place where the cold pond is located is between the outer periphery and the depths of the Molian Mountains. Most of the monsters that appear are high-level or top-level level 4 monsters. If you are unlucky, you will also encounter level 5 monsters.

The Wang family arranged two groups of people to go to the cold pond to collect ice stones, but both failed. As you can imagine, the danger was high. However, because of this, the Wang family was no longer able to send a team to collect ice stones independently, but if they gave up collecting ice stones, they would be unwilling. So the Wang family sought help from the sect.

…

After three days, Lin Chen finally arrived at Tianling Town, and then he went straight to the Wang family mansion.

The Wang family mansion is located to the west of Tianling Town. When Lin Chen arrived here, he found that there were already several warriors standing in the courtyard.

Among them, there were four people wearing costumes of different sects. Two were inner disciples of the Chunyang Sect, another was a disciple of the Chiyun Sect, and there was a woman from the Wushuang Hall.

Among these four people, except for the two inner disciples of Chunyang Sect who are in the early stage of Tiangang Realm, the other two disciples from different sects are both in the middle stage of Tiangang Realm.

The Wang family is just a small family. They not only posted the tasks in Tianji Sect, but also posted the tasks in many other sects in Yannan Territory. Therefore, there are so many inner disciples from other sects here.

After all, a small family like the Wang family cannot fight against the sect. If they only post the tasks in Tianji Sect and turn a blind eye to other sects, it will inevitably cause dissatisfaction from other sects. It will be much more difficult for them to post tasks in the future.

When several warriors in the courtyard saw Lin Chen coming, they were all stunned.

"Early stage of the eighth level of the body refining realm?" The four warriors frowned slightly, and the young man wearing the clothes of the inner disciple of the Chiyun Sect whispered with a frivolous look.

In front of the courtyard, a middle-aged man in a white robe and full of majesty was also stunned, with a look of astonishment on his face.

It was the head of the Wang family.

In order not to offend other sects, the head of the Wang family issued tasks to multiple sects at the same time, but he didn't expect that the person coming from the Tianji Sect was a warrior in the early eighth level of the body refining realm.

With this level of cultivation, coming to participate in such a task, isn't it looking for death?

The most important thing is that if he joins the caravan, he may not only fail to protect the caravan, but will drag the caravan down, which is not good for them at all.

At this time, the young disciple of the Chiyun Sect snorted and said, "Boy, if you don't have the strength, don't join in the fun. The place we are going to is the depths of the Molian Mountains. Now, go back to where you came from."

Although the other three sect disciples did not speak, their expressions revealed that their thoughts were the same as those of the young disciples of the Chiyun Sect.

Entering the depths of the Molian Mountains is not a joke! Without sufficient strength, you will only destroy yourself. Otherwise, the Wang family would not have sent two waves of troops, and they would not have been almost wiped out before reaching the cold pond.

The head of the Wang family showed an embarrassment on his face. In fact, what the young disciple of the Chiyun Sect said was exactly what he wanted to say. Although Lin Chen was only in the early eighth level of the body refining realm, he was an inner disciple of the Tianji Sect after all. If he was sent back, it would be much more difficult for him to issue tasks in the Tianji Sect in the future.

Hearing the words of the young disciple of the Chiyun Sect, Lin Chen just smiled faintly. He understood what these people were worried about. He smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, since I dare to accept this task, I have the confidence to complete it. You don't have to worry about me."

Hearing this, the head of the Wang family looked at Lin Chen with some suspicion. Lin Chen's cultivation was only in the early eighth level of the body refining realm, but he accepted this difficult task. Is his strength really that strong?

He hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "Well, welcome to join our team."

Seeing that the head of the Wang family made a decision, the two people from the Chunyang Sect and the woman from the Wushuang Hall became expressionless.

On the other side, the young man from the Chiyun Sect snorted coldly and said to Lin Chen in a deep voice: "If you want to die, we won't stop you."

Hearing the young man's words, the head of the Wang family showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, but he didn't dare to offend Lin Chen, let alone the young man from the Chiyun Sect. After all, the latter was a mid-stage Tiangang Realm cultivator and the main force of this mission, while Lin Chen was only an early stage of the eighth level of the Refining Body Realm. In comparison, the head of the Wang family still had a judgment in his heart about which one was more important.

The head of the Wang family smiled and said, "May I know your name, young master?"

"Lin Chen."

"Okay. Lin Chen, this is Fang Shang from the Chiyun Sect, these two are Yang Feng and Zhou Wenyao from the Chunyang Sect, and this is Ji Tongwen from the Wushuang Hall."

After a pause, the head of the Wang family continued: "Five of you, please follow me. We will rest here tonight and set off for the Molian Mountains early tomorrow morning."

Lin Chen and the other five nodded and followed the head of the Wang family into the hall.

After lunch, Lin Chen and the other five returned to the rooms that the Wang family had prepared for them to rest. The head of the Wang family stayed in the hall with an old man.

The old man was the elder of the Wang family, named Wang Tianming. He was the leader of the Wang family team this time. He was in the early stage of Tiangang Realm. He looked at the figures of Lin Chen and the other five people leaving, and a trace of worry appeared on his face.

"Head, the two previous times we arranged people, almost all of them were wiped out, which greatly consumed the funds of the clan. If we still invest so many spirit stones this time..."

Wang Tianming's face was even more worried. In order to collect ice stones, the clan has already used a large amount of spirit stones, and this time, a large reward was offered to invite disciples from the sect. The Wang family no longer has more spirit stones to spend on this.

If this mission still fails, then the funds within the Wang family will not be able to circulate smoothly, and the consequences will be disastrous.
