“How can our Azure Green Sect face others if a Five-Rank Alchemist is assassinated on Dan Peak? This news will spread, what will people think of us?”
“All the Captains responsible for guarding will be dismissed and expelled from the Sect, never to be reinstated!”
“Besides them, everyone responsible for the Sect’s night duty will have their salary docked for six months.”
The Azure Green Sect’s Captain was furious.
As a Sect Captain, he failed to immediately discover that an intruder had slipped into the Sect.
“Captain, this matter might not be that simple,” a Captain stammered. That night, after they were alerted, they immediately went to besiege the person, but the person still escaped.
“We saw that person’s face at the time. That person looked like Elder Gu An’s nephew from Sword Peak…”
“Gu Cheng, it was him!” another Captain bravely spoke up.
“Gu Cheng is usually very ostentatious in the Sect. I’ve seen him many times.”
Hearing this, a cold glint flashed in the Captain’s eyes.
“Since it’s someone from Sword Peak, then let Sword Peak explain themselves. Let’s go!”
After speaking, this group of people grandly left Dan Peak and rushed towards Sword Peak, where they happened to encounter Qin Xuan.
“Master Qin, you should be careful these days. Recently, there have been intruders causing trouble in the Sect.”
Qin Xuan was already a Five-Rank Alchemist, so these Captains naturally held him in high regard and stepped forward to salute him.
“Hmm, then I’ll trouble you all. You must catch the intruders as soon as possible!”
“Even an Elder like Master Wu was killed, and the intruders dared to cause trouble on Dan Peak. This is truly going too far!”
Qin Xuan said indignantly, making it seem as if he and Wu Yong were the closest of friends.
Hearing ‘Master Qin’ say this, the Captain quickly nodded and expressed his absolute loyalty to Qin Xuan, stating that he would definitely catch the murderer and flay him.
After arriving at Dan Peak and chatting with Jiang Dan and the others for a while, Qin Xuan confirmed there were no abnormalities and then hurried underground.
“After absorbing those Black Spiritual Fire, the Fire Seed’s power has greatly increased. This time, I can collect more Black Spiritual Fire to take back.”
“Collect more and put them into the Refining God Cauldron. They can be used against enemies in the future.”
After pondering for a long time, Qin Xuan once again carefully entered the underground spiritual fire and walked to the deepest part, repeating the process to collect a portion of the Black Spiritual Fire into the Refining God Cauldron.
Only when the spiritual fire tried to attack Qin Xuan did Qin Xuan quickly retreat from it.
“I collected quite a lot this time.”
Looking at the Black Spiritual Fire in the Refining God Cauldron, Qin Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
With these spiritual fire, he could refine them on one hand, and use them to deal with enemies on the other.
Even the Fire Seed almost couldn't refine the Fire Seed, let alone other ordinary Cultivators.
This Black Spiritual Fire could definitely deliver a fatal blow to those Cultivators.
After pretending to refine two Medicinal Pills inside, Qin Xuan immediately left the Dan room.
“Next, I should go to the Mission Hall. I’ve been in the Sect for some time, and according to the Sect’s rules, I still need to complete the required missions.”
“Moreover, I can also inquire about intelligence in the Mission Hall. Maybe I can find the whereabouts of the Purple-Gold Thunder.”
Qin Xuan calculated.
Purple-Gold Thunder is hard to find easily. In Qin Xuan’s opinion, the Tianji Pavilion must be able to find relevant information.
However, if he could find it here in the Azure Green Sect, that would naturally be best.
“Let’s go to the Mission Hall and see if there are any suitable missions.”
The Mission Hall is one of the minor peaks. It didn't take long for Qin Xuan to reach the Mission Hall.
The Mission Hall is located at the peak of this minor peak and is divided into four floors.
Due to the assassination incident on Dan Peak, many people are now very vigilant.
However, even so, there were still many Disciples coming and going outside the Mission Hall at this time.
Outside the Mission Hall stood a sign, covered with various missions.
These missions were all posted by the Disciples of the Azure Green Sect, and they all had corresponding rewards.
Qin Xuan took a quick glance. The value of these missions was not high; they were either about helping to capture Spirit Beasts, or helping to raise Spirit Beasts, or collecting certain Spiritual Plants, and the rewards were not high either.
After looking around, Qin Xuan lost interest and withdrew his gaze, walking into the Mission Hall.
Inside the Mission Hall, the four walls were covered with Wood Ranks, and in front of the Wood Ranks was a row of wooden long tables.
Several Disciples were responsible for registration.
At this time, many Disciples in the Mission Hall were selecting missions.
His gaze swept over these missions, and Qin Xuan nodded slightly.
The missions here are divided into four Ranks: Heaven, Profound Earth, Earth, and Yellow. Heaven-Grade missions are naturally the most difficult, while Yellow-Rank missions are the lowest Rank.
However, these missions were all very simple for him, and more importantly, he found no connection to the Purple-Gold Thunder.
“Senior Brother, are these the only missions in our Mission Hall?”
Hearing Qin Xuan say this, the Disciple responsible for registration looked at Qin Xuan and then pointed upstairs.
“This is the mission area for Profound Earth Realm Disciples. The next floor up is for Tianxuan Realm, and above that are Yuqing Realm and Shangqing Realm, in order.”
The Disciple responsible for registration spoke with some impatience, possibly because he was asked this question frequently.
Shangqing Realm?
Qin Xuan was stunned.
Those who could reach the Shangqing Realm in the Azure Green Sect should have already become Elders.
This means that even Elders have missions they can undertake.
Missions that only Elders are qualified to undertake.
Qin Xuan himself was somewhat interested.
“Thank you.”
After saying thanks, Qin Xuan went directly to the second floor.
That was where Tianxuan Realm could accept missions.
For the current Qin Xuan, there was no need to accept Profound Earth Realm missions. He wanted to directly choose Tianxuan Realm missions.
Upon reaching the second floor, the number of people looking for missions was much smaller. At this time, there were only a dozen people in the spacious Mission Hall selecting missions.
The number of missions on this floor was much smaller than before, but the difficulty had significantly increased.
“Heaven, Profound Earth, Earth, Yellow. It seems the missions here are categorized by these Ranks.”
Qin Xuan quickly began selecting here.
“Qin Xuan, this might have a clue.”
Just then, Han Ye spoke to Qin Xuan in his Sea of Consciousness.
Qin Xuan turned his gaze to that side, and his eyes immediately lit up.
“Collect lightning crystal from Thunder Beast, with a map showing the Thunder Beast’s location.”
There's even a map.
Qin Xuan nodded in satisfaction.
As long as he had the location of the Thunder Beast, things would be much easier.
“Thunder Beasts are different from Wind-Thunder Beasts. Thunder Beasts feed on lightning and are entirely composed of lightning. Thunder Beasts of the same Rank are much stronger than other Spirit Beasts.”
“No wonder no one took the mission. The reward is only one High-Grade Spirit Stone, which is truly too meager.”
This reward was truly too low; for ordinary Disciples, it was simply not enough.
However, for Qin Xuan, it was just right.
What he needed was to temper himself with the Purple-Gold Thunder and quickly reach the level of the Golden Thunder Body.
