Capítulo 9: Heaven List Mission: Kill the Red-Eyed Demonic Tiger
Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After everything was settled, Gu Xi remembered that he still had two cultivation methods that he had left behind at the Library Pavilion. Those cultivation methods should be pretty good, but he did not have enough contribution points.
If he wanted to earn contribution points, he had to do sect missions. He immediately went to the Mission Hall.
At this moment, the Mission Hall was full of people. After all, everyone wanted to do missions to earn contribution points. They hoped that they could exchange it for an opportunity to advance.
The missions were divided into three lists, which were Human, Earth, and Heaven. The difficulty increased in turn, and of course, the rewards would also increase.
In the center of the hall, there were three light screens. The Human List was white, the Earth List was red, and the Heaven List was golden. The Human List was refreshed very frequently, and the Earth List also changed from time to time. Only the Heaven List rarely changed, especially the top few. Almost no one could complete the missions in the Heaven List.
The person in charge of serving Gu Xi saw that he was not even an outer sect disciple, so he threw a piece of white paper to Gu Xi without raising his head, "You can accept these daily missions on the Human List."
Gu Xi glanced at them. There were menial missions such as feeding the demonic beasts of the sect, taking care of the herb garden, looking for items that an elder had lost, going to the various main peaks to clean up, and so on. Such trivial matters.
Not to mention that this kind of thing took up a lot of time, and the contribution points earned were pitifully small. He did not know how long it would take before he could earn enough contribution points to exchange for the other two cultivation methods.
"Is there anything with a little more contribution points?"
The person in charge raised his head and looked at Gu Xi, sizing him up and down a few times, then handed over another one, "Then take a look at this."
Gu Xi took a quick glance and indeed, it was dozens of points higher than the previous one.
"I want to accept this mission," Gu Xi said while pointing at the screen.
The person in charge casually followed the direction that Gu Xi was pointing. For a moment, he thought that Gu Xi was pointing in the wrong direction. He could not help but confirm, "You want this?"
Gu Xi was pointing straight at the Heaven List. It was also the mission that was ranked first: Kill the Red-eyed Demon Tiger.
"That's right."
The Red-eyed Demon Tiger was extremely brutal and evil, causing unspeakable damage to the surrounding villages. However, it was very powerful and rarely had an opponent. However, its body was full of treasures and was extremely valuable. Even so, no one was able to subdue it.
One had to know that this mission had been on the Heaven List for nearly a year, yet no one had completed it. There was once a disciple at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage who had accepted it, but he returned in defeat and was even heavily injured. From then on, this mission was ranked first on the Heaven List, and no one dared to attempt it anymore.
The person in charge looked at Gu Xi as if he was looking at a fool.
"Even an inner sect disciple couldn't defeat the Red-eyed Demon Tiger, and you're not even an outer sect disciple. Aren't you asking for trouble?"
His meaning was very clear. If Gu Xi accepted this mission, he would undoubtedly be a snack for the demonic tiger.
The others were also attracted by the commotion here and immediately burst into laughter.
"What? Did I hear wrong? Someone actually accepted this mission, and it was even a disciple who didn't enter the sect?"
"This mission has been on the Heaven List for a year. Ever since the previous disciple who was at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage failed, no one dared to attempt it anymore. Should I say that this kid is a newborn calf that's not afraid of tigers, or that he's not afraid of death?"
"With this little bit of cultivation, I am afraid that it is not enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of the demon tiger. Is he illiterate? Or is he tired of living?"
Everyone was mocking Gu Xi, but his expression was calm. The person in charge shook his head and felt that Gu Xi had high standards but low skills. Gu Xi's strength was clearly high, but he wanted missions that rewarded more contribution points. He could even disregard his safety.
The person in charge saw that Gu Xi was still young and did not want him to lose his life in vain. He said earnestly, "It's good for young people to have ambition and pursuits, but you have to be down-to-earth. This mission is not suitable for you at all. I advise you to look at the rest of the Human List."
Who would have thought that Gu Xi would shake his head and reject his good intentions? "I'll choose this one."
The person in charge was speechless. Seeing that Gu Xi was so stubborn, his expression gradually turned cold. "Then it's up to you."
Anyone could accept the missions on any list, be it Heaven, Earth, or Human. There were no thresholds or restrictions. However, everyone would choose according to their own strength. Even if there were people who wanted to challenge the difficulty, they would do so within their limits, and they would not be too outrageous.
If any accidents and dangers really happened, the sect would not be responsible. After all, life and death were fated. Therefore, people were usually cautious when choosing which mission to accept.
However, it was a first for someone like Gu Xi.
Gu Xi ignored the cold remarks around him, picked up the mission card, and was ready to leave. The person in charge looked at his back and shook his head. If nothing unexpected happened, this should be the last time he saw this disciple.
"Why waste your breath on this kind of person? He actually wants to send himself to his death. There's no need to stop him."
At this moment, a clamor came from outside the door.
A group of purple-robed disciples with extraordinary aura entered the Mission Hall. It was as if purple clouds had come from the east. Purple was the color of personal disciples, and Gu Xi just happened to pass by them.
The Daoist robes on these disciples were very different from the other ordinary ones. They were not only impervious to water and fire, they were impervious to swords and spears. It could be seen how precious they were. Whether it was the cuffs or the edges, they were all outlined with golden lines, and they were exquisite.
The man's eyebrows were thick and his eyes were bright, while the woman's face was like a peach blossom. They were at the Foundation Establishment stage, and there was an arrogant look on the woman's face.
The few people in charge and even some elders hurriedly went out to welcome them. One had to know that these personal disciples were the hearts and flesh of the peak masters and elders. Their statuses were noble, and people could not afford to offend them.
"I wonder why all of you have graced us with your presence?"
The man in the lead looked to be around 20 years old. His facial features were handsome and elegant, and his temperament was extraordinary. He was the personal disciple of the Sect Leader. His name was Lin Bai, and he was good at swordsmanship.
"We are here under the orders of the elders to accept the mission and practice."
"I see."
When the person in charge heard this, he respectfully welcomed them in.
Lin Bai glanced at the top of the Heaven List and saw that the golden characters on it had dimmed. This meant that the mission was already accepted. If the mission failed, it would return to its original appearance. If the mission was successful, it would disappear from the Heaven List.
He remembered that this mission was to kill the Red-eyed Demon Tiger. The difficulty was extremely high and it had been on the list for a long time.
"Could it be that other personal disciples had come before me and accepted that mission?"
Logically speaking, in the sect, only these personal disciples were most likely to complete this mission. Lin Bai was suddenly a little curious. After all, he had wanted to accept this mission to challenge himself, but he did not know that it had been taken by someone else.
To be able to accept this mission, this person must be very powerful.
However, who would have thought that the atmosphere would fall into silence. The expressions of the surrounding people became a little strange. Lin Bai asked in puzzlement, "What's wrong with all of you? Could it be that there's something special about this person?"
After a moment, the person in charge opened his mouth and said, "The person who accepted this mission is a disciple that's not even in the outer sect."
Lin Bai was shocked.
