Chapter 543 - 14 Shaoyin Mountain Quest Hall_4

Chapter 543: Chapter 14 Shaoyin Mountain Quest Hall_4

The four mountains of Wanxiang Sect represent the ‘Four Aspects’, Shaoyin symbolises the White Tiger, thus the mountain shape is somewhat similar to it.

Wang Ba swept his eyes across without explicitly searching and spotted a bustling square located at the tiger’s back in the mountain landscape.

That is where the Quest Hall is situated.

The Quest Hall operates round the clock, with missions constantly being issued and concluded.

Sect disciples are always on the lookout there, ready to seize the Sect’s mission tasks at any moment.

Of course, according to Tian Fu’s claim, these tasks are not just for anyone to take on.

Many Sect tasks have stipulations on the Cultivator’s usual task completion rate, and if multiple tasks are left uncompleted in a short period, one’s qualification to take tasks would be frozen. So generally, there is rarely any malicious competition for tasks.

Wang Ba promptly descended upon the square. He took a quick glance around and saw a row of houses at the very front of the square.

The houses had several doors and windows open, with a queue forming in front of them. Cultivators were sitting in each window, processing something rapidly.

This scene seemed familiar.

Outside the houses, there were several huge things akin to water curtains.

Dozens of mission information strings were scrolling fast on the curtains, and there were a few cultivators next to them, occasionally putting bamboo plates into the water curtains. Immediately, a new mission information would appear on the curtain.

Wang Ba curiously walked over to them.

At the top of the first water curtain, he saw a ‘One’ written.

Wang Ba’s sight swept past:

“In need of Class I Nine-Leaf Snakehead Lotus, a hundred strains, at least ten years old, urgently needed for Alchemy! 5 lower grade Spirit Stones per strain…. Posted half a day ago.”

“Looking for Qi Refining stage X brothers and sisters to break through the ‘One-Five Dungeon’ together…”

“Body cultivator, female, beautiful, unmarried, willing to choose a daoist couple. Upon successful conception, a hundred Merits awarded… Posted two years ago.”

“…”

Wang Ba realised faintly: “‘One’, represents Class I or Qi Refining stage?”

Glancing across these tasks, his sight lingered a bit on the one requesting a child from the body cultivator and then regretfully withdrew.

100 Merits, it wasn’t small, what a pity…

However, seeing that this task with such good conditions was still not taken up, it probably wasn’t that easy either.

At this moment, Wang Ba saw a cultivator throw in a black bamboo plate into the water curtain.

A streak of golden light flashed on the first water curtain.

Wang Ba saw right away that within the golden light, was a new mission information line.

“Demonic beasts rampant in the ‘One-Nine Dungeon’ in Shaoyin Mountain, acquaint 2 merits and a Class I upper grade… for each one killed. Task pick-up condition: Class I/Qi Refining stage, no Class II Magic Tools or Talismans are allowed…”

Someone shouted out abruptly:

“Quick, grab it!”

In an instant, there were numerous figures rushing forward, throwing their Identity Plates into the golden light.

Then Wang Ba finally came to understand:

“So this is the Sect task, a benefit specifically for Qi Refining stage cultivators?”

His own dungeon, yet he’s not allowing any second level magic tools due to the rampant demonic beasts, this had to be a giveaway other than which there was no other explanation.

But this was normal. Most of the Qi refining cultivators do not qualify to hold a position, they couldn’t even receive the minimum of ten Merit Points a year. This served as an additional Merit procurement channel for some Qi refining cultivators.

Many Qi refining stage cultivators surged forward, and in a blink, the golden light dimmed, and the mission information fell out of sight.

Apparently, the recruiting quota was filled.

But Wang Ba wasn’t too bothered, as the mission was restricted to Qi Refining stage and he, being a Foundation Establishment Competitor, wouldn’t possibly be admitted.

Immediately, he approached the second water curtain.

At the top of the curtain was the word ‘Two’.

Plenty of mission information lines were scrolling through rapidly on the water curtain, but they were all clearly visible in the eyes of the cultivator.

“Seeking rotation patrolling companion, must be at least late-stage Foundation Establishment, preferably one specialized in combat, tenure of one year, remuneration: 500 middle grade Spirit Stones…. Posted two days ago.”

“Seeking Class II Elixirs or spirit food, useful for breaking through bottlenecks, 2 Merit Points as remuneration after confirming effectiveness…Posted half a day ago.”

“Seek advice for Body Cultivation from brothers at Shenti Peak…”

Wang Ba’s gaze inadvertently fell on the second task and he suddenly felt intrigued.

“Elixirs or spirit food…for breaking through bottlenecks…Is it because the remuneration is too little, that’s why no one is willing to accept it?”

Being one of the few personal tasks that offers Merit rewards yet still being left displayed on the water curtain, there had to be a reason.

Wang Ba felt some temptation, but refrained from any immediate action.

There were many tasks for those in Foundation Establishment stage, which slightly dazzled him.

He hesitated a bit, then walked towards the next water curtain.

As expected, there was a ‘Three’ on the curtain, and all the tasks on the curtain could only be handled by Golden Core realm cultivators.

There were several golden lights flickering on the water curtain.

These seemed like some Sect tasks that had not been picked up yet.

Wang Ba looked at the others and found a task that stirred his interest:

“Looking for a Golden Core Craftsman proficient in dissecting Spirit Beasts, requires: Golden Core Craftsman with at least 80% task completion rate. Remuneration: 14 Merits…Posted just now.”

He had a fair understanding of dissecting Spirit Beasts, but the other side’s requirements left him a bit helpless.

However, it was evident that the remuneration for Golden realm tasks was much higher than for Foundation Establishment.
