"Task board?"

After Qiao Zheng left, Qin Tian developed an interest in the task board Qiao Zheng mentioned. He went back to ask Qiao Wenxuan, who told him that the task board is a method used by the Qilin Mountain Sect to train Inner Sect Disciples. Through task assignments, disciples take on tasks and complete them to earn rewards.

The task rewards on the task board include Spirit Stones, Elixirs, Magic Artifacts, and various Cultivation Immortality Resources, mainly determined by the mission level.

One can earn Cultivation Immortality Resources and also self-train. Naturally, Qin Tian had to check it out.

In the afternoon, he arrived at the task board, standing before the towering, layered board over three meters high. He felt dazzled by the array.

The tasks on the board were divided into five levels, with the first level being the lowest and the fifth level the highest.

"Level one task: Exterminate bandits at Purple Clouds Mountain; Task Duration: Ten days; Task Reward: Fifteen Low Grade Spirit Stones; Suggestion: Two Qi Refining Middle Stage Immortality Cultivators should go."

"Level two task: Kill a First Level Demon Beast at the East Sea; Task Duration: One month; Task Reward: Thirty Low Grade Spirit Stones; Suggestion: Two Qi Refining Late Stage Immortality Cultivators should go."

"Level three task: Qilin City Medicine Merchant Escort Task; Task Duration: One month; Task Reward: Two hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones, ten Gathering Spirit Pills. Suggestion: one Qi Refining Peak Immortality Cultivator, five Qi Refining Late Stage Immortality Cultivators should go."

...

Qin Tian gazed at the task wall with its myriad of complex tasks, especially when he saw the rewards for each task, he couldn't help but gulp.

"Overall, the first-level and second-level tasks are basically minor leveling tasks, not very challenging, and the rewards aren't much."

"But once you reach the third-level tasks, generally, you must have a Qi Refining Peak Immortality Cultivator to oversee things. Moreover, many Immortality Cultivators are needed. Of course, the more people there are, the fewer Cultivation Immortality Resources are distributed after completing the task."

"Hmm... What task should I choose to practice with?"

Qin Tian stood in front of the task wall, lost in thought.

His minimum goal for himself was a third-level task, but most of the remaining tasks were group cooperation tasks, which would be challenging for him alone.

"Brother, you seem unfamiliar. Are you a disciple of the Right Pulse or the Main Vein? I haven't seen you before?"

As Qin Tian hesitated, a young man beside him initiated a conversation with Qin Tian.

"I'm a disciple of the Left Pulse, Qin Tian," Qin Tian replied.

"Oh, you're that... Qin Tian who has been gaining some fame in Qilin Mountain Sect recently, haha, nice to meet you! I am Liu Yu from the Main Vein. I was away for a while on a task, just returned, so I apologize for not recognizing you."

This young man greeted Qin Tian proactively, seemingly without any bias against Qin Tian.

"Haha, are you looking to take on a task too? May I ask if your cultivation has reached the Qi Refining Late Stage?"

Seeing Liu Yu's curious expression, Qin Tian roughly guessed what he wanted, and nodded, "Yes, Qi Refining Late Stage."

"Haha, that's great. We've just accepted a fourth-level task and need one more Qi Refining Late Stage Immortality Cultivator. Are you interested?"

"Fourth-level task?"

Upon hearing Liu Yu's words, Qin Tian was taken aback as he originally intended to take a third-level task, yet this guy had accepted a fourth-level task?

Qin Tian couldn't help but size up Liu Yu, asking, "What's the fourth-level task?"

"Exterminate the Cult's Blood Refining Hall branch in Nanshan, East State. It's a major task. From what we know, there's one Primordial Pill Early Stage Immortality Cultivator, two Qi Refining Peak Immortality Cultivators, and over ten Qi Refining Late Stage and Qi Refining Middle Stage lackeys."

"Primordial Pill Early Stage!?"

Hearing Liu Yu's words, Qin Tian was stunned, "If we take on this task, how many people do we need?"

"Four. Including you." Liu Yu smiled faintly. "What? Are you scared?"

"Why so few people?"

"That's always the case. The more people, the less the Cultivation Immortality Resources are distributed. This time, it's led by Zhao Hanshuang from the Right Pulse. She proposed four people: two Primordial Pill stage, one Qi Refining Peak stage, and one Qi Refining Late stage."

Upon hearing, Qin Tian understood. It turns out he was the Qi Refining Late stage needed to complement their numbers.

"Rest assured, Junior Brother Qin Tian, Senior Sister Zhao Hanshuang is one of the 'Qilin Five Talents' of our Qilin Mountain Sect, renowned and has long been in the Primordial Pill Early Stage. It's more than enough to deal with that Primordial Pill Early Stage master in the Blood Refining Hall."

Seeing Qin Tian indecisive, Liu Yu smiled faintly, "We're short one Qi Refining Late Stage disciple to deal with the petty enemies in Blood Refining Hall. So, what do you think? Interested? Since there are only four people, the rewards are very generous, you know?"

"How generous?"

"If you join and complete the task within the month's duration, you'll receive one hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones."

Qin Tian raised an eyebrow. The reward Liu Yu mentioned was indeed generous, at least for a Qi Refining Late Stage Immortality Cultivator.

However, Qin Tian was still curious, and asked, "And what about you all?"

At that, Liu Yu's face showed a hint of awkwardness, but he smiled faintly and said, "Rewards naturally differ due to differing cultivation levels. This proposal was made by Senior Sister Zhao Hanshuang. After completing the mission, she will receive twenty Mid Grade Spirit Stones and the Magic Artifact Spirit Light Dagger; I will receive twenty Mid Grade Spirit Stones and ten Qi Primordial Pills; Cao Lin will receive ten Mid Grade Spirit Stones and five Qi Primordial Pills."

"Cao Lin?"

Hearing Liu Yu's words, Qin Tian frowned instantly. Wasn't this the guy who used to show off in the Left Pulse?

"Yeah, I made an agreement with Senior Sister Zhao Hanshuang. She chooses one Qi Refining Peak person; I choose a Qi Refining Late person, and he chose Cao Lin. As for me... haha, I haven't known many Qi Refining Late friends because I've been dispatched often for tasks over the years... cough cough, isn't it fortunate to meet you?"

Liu Yu looked at Qin Tian and said, "Junior Brother Qin Tian, the task rewards we mentioned earlier are merely the Sect rewards for the extermination task of the Blood Refining Hall's South Mountain Branch. As for what you can loot from those Cult disciples during the mission.... well, that's up to individual skill... heh, that's the unspoken rule."

Liu Yu chuckled awkwardly, "So what do you think? Interested or not? If not, I'll continue to look for someone, as we're departing tomorrow."

"I'll go."

Without hesitation, Qin Tian responded, "I'll go back to organize myself, where shall we meet tomorrow morning?"

"At the Main Vein's main entrance."

"Alright. See you then."

Qin Tian accepted the task and then returned to the Left Pulse to inform Qiao Wenxuan and others about his mission undertaking.

Qiao Wenxuan paused and said, "You're going on a mission with Senior Sister Zhao Hanshuang? She's notoriously strict and haughty, especially looking down on our Left Pulse disciples. Qin Tian, you should be careful..."
