Jiang Li still remembered that when he transmigrated, his role was a cannon fodder for the script of [Immortal Demon Lord].
He hadn't expected to encounter the protagonist of his script here.
The Immortal God Body was truly a bug-level physique, no wonder he could achieve the Immortal Demon Lord status.
Another guy who had a cheat.
Danyuan sixth heaven, this was already a protagonist with some achievements.
A story about an ordinary father and a Saintess mother that had to be told? Jiang Li silently grumbled as he looked at Su Ming's script.
It seemed the Chaos Sacred Land was in for some bad luck...
Jiang Li had seen this kind of trope too many times in his previous life.
If the Chaos Sacred Land was wise, they might be able to preserve some foundation.
But if they insisted on going against this protagonist, they were likely to be wiped out completely, every last member of their household.
This Su Ming was a ruthless person, he wouldn't bother with their petty squabbles.
Jiang Li shook his head and continued to read about Su Ming's fortuitous encounters.
Martial arts, spirit herbs...
Exotic Flames!!!
Jiang Li's eyes lit up. The Demonic Flame True Fire, it was an Exotic Flame.
Jiang Li looked at Su Ming, who was incredibly cold and distant nearby, a hint of delight flashing in his eyes. This fellow had good fortune.
Much better than that guy Lin Dong, who had just recently emerged.
It was actually an Exotic Flame.
One had to know that Exotic Flames were extremely rare, even more precious than Saint-tier cultivation techniques.
After all, one technique could be cultivated by multiple people.
But one Exotic Flame could only be refined by a single person.
Su Ming, surrounded by disciples, slowly walked into the mission hall.
Looking at the mission hall, which he had seen countless times, Su Ming's expression was incredibly calm.
As for the fervent voices around him, Su Ming had long grown accustomed to them.
If he could refine this Exotic Flame, the rank of the [Melting Fire Scripture] should increase significantly, Jiang Li thought to himself.
He should go and obtain the Exotic Flame as soon as possible.
Following that, Jiang Li also entered the mission hall.
The hall was extremely grand, and the decorations around it were exceptionally luxurious, with many ornamental items emitting a very fragrant aroma.
The mission hall was bustling with people, many of whom were accepting or submitting missions here.
Jiang Li headed straight to the mission reception area in the hall to check for any missions in Black Wind Mountain.
Black Wind Mountain was outside the Yellow Springs Demonic Sect and did not fall within its sphere of influence.
Therefore, one had to travel there via a teleportation array.
Jiang Li browsed the missions for Black Wind Mountain at the mission reception area.
The missions in the mission hall were all-encompassing, with basically all sorts of tasks available, from killing cultivators to tending flowers, and even escorting missions...
And only inner disciples were eligible to accept these missions.
Outer disciples did not have the qualification to accept missions.
[Assassination Mission: My dao companion betrayed me, I want his head... Requirement... Danyuan third heaven... Reward: 200 mid-grade spirit stones]
[Assassination Mission: I don't like my brother, I want to kill him... Danyuan fourth heaven... Reward: 300 mid-grade spirit stones]
[Daily Mission: I am cultivating demonic arts and need a partner for dual cultivation... Requires 20cm... Reward: 600 mid-grade spirit stones]
...
...
Jiang Li looked at the bizarre missions in the mission hall with a peculiar expression. Is this a demonic sect?
Killing, dual cultivation... Divine damnation, 20cm...
Jiang Li continued to search for missions in Black Wind Mountain.
Soon, Jiang Li finally found a mission.
[Go to Mingyun Inn in Black Wind Mountain and purchase a jar of Thousand Year Drunk! Reward: 500 mid-grade spirit stones.]
Just buying a jar of wine, there shouldn't be any problem, Jiang Li muttered to himself, looking at the mission.
But the reward seemed a bit too much, 500 mid-grade spirit stones.
Jiang Li always felt that this mission exuded a hint of strangeness.
There was no reason for such a simple mission to still be available here.
It was indicated that this mission had been posted here for six months, but no one had ever completed it.
Forget it, I'll take it first. I'm here for the Exotic Flame anyway... At worst, I'll just not do it after accepting it...
Jiang Li shrugged, and then made up his mind.
"I want to accept the mission to purchase Thousand Year Drunk!" Jiang Li said to the disciple arranging missions at the mission hall.
The disciple arranging missions at the mission hall was named Zhao Tian.
Jiang Li had already checked his script. He was just an ordinary disciple, nothing special, though his cultivation was quite high, reaching Danyuan third heaven.
As soon as Jiang Li spoke, Zhao Tian's expression changed slightly.
"Junior brother, are you sure you want to accept that mission?" Zhao Tian looked at Jiang Li with a peculiar expression.
Jiang Li frowned slightly. Is there really something strange about this mission?
"Senior brother, may I ask if there is anything wrong with this mission?" Jiang Li took a deep breath and then said to Zhao Tian.
If this mission really had any problems, he would have to reconsider carefully. Jiang Li didn't want to get himself entangled in any strange affairs because of a mission.
Zhao Tian took a deep breath. "Junior brother may not know, but there is no problem with this mission..."
Following that, Zhao Tian explained the details of this mission to Jiang Li.
It turned out that this mission was posted by an elder from Qianluo Peak in the inner sect. Previously, many disciples had undertaken this mission, but after buying the Thousand Year Drunk from there, the elder always claimed the taste was wrong, and the mission failed. This included some true disciples.
The price of that Thousand Year Drunk was not cheap, costing 300 spirit stones. This meant that upon failure, one would lose 300 mid-grade spirit stones for nothing.
Jiang Li frowned. Was that elder deliberately picking a fight? But it didn't matter. I'm not interested in the reward, I'm just using this as a means to get the Exotic Flame.
Seemingly sensing Jiang Li's thoughts, Zhao Tian continued, "I advise junior brother to choose another mission, don't waste your spirit stones for nothing!"
Jiang Li pondered for a moment. He hadn't seen any other missions for Black Wind Mountain on the mission board earlier. If he switched, he didn't know how long he would have to wait.
"Thank you for your advice, senior brother. I will still take the mission!" Jiang Li continued.
Anyway, all he wanted was the Exotic Flame. As for spirit stones? It didn't matter.
Zhao Tian shook his head and did not try to persuade him further. He simply handed the mission token to Jiang Li.
These missions were unique; once accepted, no one else could take them.
Only after the mission failed could it be accepted by another person.
After putting away the mission token, Jiang Li left the mission hall directly.
...
"Junior brother Zhao, is that junior brother from our inner sect? I haven't seen him before?" As soon as Jiang Li left, Su Ming, who had coincidentally finished his mission, arrived at Zhao Tian's place.
Su Ming looked at Jiang Li, who left directly, and felt a slight irritation. He always felt that this person was a bit displeasing to the eye, yet he couldn't pinpoint why.
Zhao Tian respectfully replied, "Senior brother Su, that is a disciple who recently joined the inner sect. He is here to accept a mission for the first time today!"
