Chapter 654: Protection Fee? Anti-Grab

( ) Seeing Xiao Chen's move in the courtyard that day, I originally thought that Xiao Chen would be the most difficult bone in this line of work, so I prepared a lot for it.

After handing over the low-grade Gui Lingzhu, Xiao Chen walked forward with a blank expression, without saying a word.

A person beside Gui Wu smiled and said: "Brother, this kid is not as mysterious as you said, how can the characters from the sky world be so powerful."

Gui Wu weighed the Gui Lingzhu in his hand, and said coldly: "For he is wise, I happen to be short of one person, let me kill chickens to make an example to monkeys."

At the end, he turned his head and asked, "How many low-grade Guiling Orbs have we received in total?"

Someone immediately made some calculations and said excitedly: "There are 100 people in this residential area under our control, and a total of 500 Gui Lingzhu have been obtained."

Gui Wu heard the words, shook his head and said: "It's still a bit small. The original five major factions controlled residential areas with at least three or four hundred people, and the group of stupid big men in the war world controlled more than two hundred people."

"Among the seven major factions, we are the weakest. We have to be tough next month. Each of us must hand in seven Gui Lingzhu, otherwise we will be squeezed out sooner or later."

In the wooden house where Xiao Chen was, Zhuo Yushi said with some gratitude: "Xiao Chen, it's a good thing you didn't fight them, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

"Why?" Xiao Chen asked.

Zhuo Yushi took a sip of tea and said, "Returning the Lingzhu to the disciples of the inner sect has always existed. In the past, our area was managed by Lan Feichen, who ranked fifth in the inner sect."

"Half a month ago, Gui Wu led people to fight him, and no one knew the result, but afterward, Lan Feichen assigned our residential area to Gui Wu."

Xiao Chen frowned slightly and said: "Lan Feichen, I won't give him a part for no reason. This ghost dance seems not easy."

Zhuo Yushi said: "He has a great backer. He is the grandson of the master of the Haotian Sect in the Hailing Realm. I heard rumors that he brought millions of high-grade spirit stones. After taking Juyuan Pill, he swallowed many The treasures of heaven, material and earth have once again reached the realm of the low-rank peak Martial Emperor."

After chatting for a while, Zhuo Yushi bid farewell and left, and Xiao Chen's calm eyes revealed a murderous intent.

"My Gui Lingzhu is not so easy to get."

Talking softly to himself, Xiao Chen seized the time, cross-legged on the futon, and continued to condense his true energy.

With previous experience,

The speed behind Xiao Chen's condensing of true essence was much faster. Ten days later, all ninety-nine drops of true essence liquid turned dark purple, as smooth as pearls.

On the futon, Xiao Chen opened his eyes, his eyes were pure and introverted, at first glance, it was ordinary, but when he looked closely, it gave people a sense of unfathomable and unfathomable.

Putting the fingers of his right hand together, Xiao Chen's heart moved, and a ray of purple saber energy shot out from his fingertips.

The saber energy was like lightning, fleeting, and passed through a vase on the wooden table without a sound, then passed through the wall, and shot out of the house.

Xiao Chen stretched out his hand, and the vase fell into his hands with a whistling sound.

The vase is made of porcelain, which can be smashed to pieces with a light touch. If in the past, Xiao Chen's powerful true essence hadn't even touched the vase, just a strong wind could crush the vase into powder.

But now, the power of the saber energy transformed by the true essence has not diminished at all, but only a flawless hole was opened in the middle of the vase.

If outsiders were here and didn't see Xiao Chen making a move, at first glance, they would definitely think that there was a hole in the vase.

Playing with the vase casually, Xiao Chen smiled slightly and put the vase back in place with a wave of his hand.

"The condensed degree of my true energy now is almost the same as that of the Ghost Dance that I have taken Juyuan Pill."

When encountering Ghost Wu, Xiao Chen already has a 60% chance of winning, but Ghost Wu is not alone, there are six or seven lower realm geniuses who are slightly weaker than him by his side.

You have to take Juyuan Pill to condense the extremely condensed true essence again, so as not to be afraid of the opponent's siege.

In terms of martial arts, it has never been Xiao Chen's weakness, whether it is the Four Seasons Saber Technique that he comprehended alone, or Qinglong Chuhai, which has already exerted 80% of its power.

Xiao Chen is fully confident that he has completely defeated the opponent in terms of martial arts.

What he lacks is the accumulation, the accumulation of true energy, as long as the true energy is completely condensed, no one among the low-rank Martial Emperors will be his opponent.

When the time comes to trouble those people, Xiao Chen has never been the one who suffers, and he must pay the price for taking his Gui Lingzhu.

His current cultivation base is still in the middle stage of the low-rank Martial Emperor, and has not changed. It is undoubtedly a waste to use Juyuan Pill.

However, Xiao Chen still has hundreds of low-rank Guiling Orbs. As long as he is willing to give up and give him a week, he can use the Guiling Orbs to reach the realm of the low-rank peak Martial Emperor.

"I have to practice slowly for the time being, there are still five days until the end of the month, so go and pick up a sect mission first."

The sect mission must be accepted, otherwise you will not be able to stay in the inner sect. This is a rigid rule of the Haotian School, and Xiao Chen dare not violate it.

When passing by Zhuo Yushi's house, Xiao Chen scanned it with his spiritual sense, and the house was empty, Zhuo Yushi was not there.

Xiao Chen didn't care, he found someone at random, asked politely, and then he knew how to get to the mission hall.

Half an hour later, we arrived at the mission hall. As the end of the month approached, there was a lot of people in the hall, and the noise continued, making it very noisy.

After waiting for a while, Xiao Chen finally came to the front desk, took over a stack of task lists and began to check them carefully.

Quests are not classified into different levels. Quests with high rewards are all linked to high risks. Generally, no one will accept missions that cannot be completed beyond their means.

If the mission fails, it will be punished accordingly. Those missions with higher rewards will receive greater punishment after failure.

Under such regulations, it is completely avoided that the fluke mentality of some people blindly accepting tasks.

"This is an escort mission. The City Lord's Mansion of Haining City has to escort a batch of resources to pay tribute. The danger is not great, even if it takes a long time, the reward will be low."

"There is also the task of collecting spirit beast materials. It was issued by an alchemist in our sect, and the reward is very high. But this rule is too harsh. Not only must the integrity of the materials be guaranteed, but also the freshness of the materials. Who can do it? .”

Xiao Chen carefully searched for suitable tasks, but found that none of them were satisfactory, either because the pay was low or the conditions were too harsh.

Eh, chasing and killing casual cultivators? Xiao Chen's eyes lit up, and he pulled out a task list, which described a city in the border area of ​​Haotian State.

Recently, a group of casual cultivators came here, all of them were at the level of a low-rank Martial Emperor. They came and went like the wind, and half of the four major families in the city were wiped out by these casual cultivators.

Not only was all the wealth accumulated by the family wiped out, but men, women, and children were all disemboweled and killed, causing panic in the city.

The goal of the mission is to kill this group of casual cultivators, and you can get 1,000 contribution points and 50,000 top-grade spirit stones as a reward.

Xiao Chen smiled slightly, held the task list in his hands, and said, "It's you."

Not only can he test his recent cultivation results, but he can also get rewards. This task is equivalent to tailor-made for him.

Haotian State is vast and boundless, and the land of one state is larger than the entire territory of Jin State on Tianwu Continent.

There are nine large cities in the state, hundreds of medium-sized cities, and no less than a thousand small cities. The Dingshui City that Xiao Chen is going to is one of the small cities.

Dingshui City is located at the border between Haotian State and Baiyu State. Baiyu State is also very large, and Lingtian Pavilion, the eighth-rank sect, sits in the state.

If it is in other places, with the strength of Lingtian Pavilion, it is definitely not the overlord of one side.

But it is too close to the Clear Sky School, the so-called one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and only one overlord is allowed to appear in one place. It has been suppressed by the Clear Sky School all year round, and all the light has been covered up.

Haotian City is a long way from Dingshui City, with a length of several million kilometers, limited by the rules of the Kunlun Realm, Xiao Chen's speed is more than 20% slower here.

With his own ability, if he wanted to fly there, even if he drove day and night without eating or drinking, it would take a month to go back and forth, which was obviously not worthwhile.

But fortunately, in the sky world, there are very few long-distance teleportation arrays, which are not rare in the Kunlun world.

This untold secret handed down from the Immortal Era, after thousands of years of research by many seniors in the Kunlun Realm, finally got some clues.

These teleportation arrays can be imitated, but the imitated teleportation arrays are imitations after all, it is impossible to achieve a perfect effect, and the cost is very high.

With the financial resources of the Haotian School, there are only nine cities in the Haotian State that have this school, and a total of ten have been laid.

But even so, it greatly facilitates the travel of warriors. Xiao Chen only needs to teleport to Tianling City, and he can reach Dingshui City in five days as a flying spirit beast.

Xiao Chen took this task, not wasting time, and walked towards the teleportation square in the city, but when he was about to go out, someone yelled at him to stop him.

"Brother Xiao, are you also here to take up the mission?"

In the crowded task hall, Zhuo Yushi walked towards Xiao Chen with a group of people with joy on his face.

Xiao Chen looked back, and found that Zhuo Yushi's original frivolous true energy was all restrained in his body, and his cultivation had dropped from the original low-rank Empress Wu stage to the early stage.

But the aura of the whole person is much fiercer than before. Zhuo Yushi now is not the same as him half a month ago.

Zhuo Yushi was obviously very satisfied with his current cultivation, and he could feel a sense of self-confidence in every step.

But when he saw Xiao Chen's cultivation, he was taken aback. Xiao Chen's current cultivation is introverted and unremarkable, like a puddle of autumn water that makes people unpredictable.

He obviously has the cultivation base of a low-rank Martial Emperor in the middle stage, but the condensed speed of his true essence is much stronger than him.

Impossible, if he takes Juyuan Pill, his cultivation will be knocked back to the early stage of the low-rank Martial Emperor, how can he be so much higher than me.

Could it be the effect brought by the top-grade Juyuan pill? After much deliberation, this is the only possibility.

"Xiao Chen, have you taken your high-grade Juyuan pill?" Zhuo Yushi asked.

In front of everyone, Zhuo Yushi revealed that he had a high-grade Juyuan pill, Xiao Chen was slightly displeased.

But he understood the character of the other party, knew that it was outspoken, it was not intentional, and it was not easy to get angry, so he nodded and said, "That's right."

The group of people behind Zhuo Yushi heard that Xiao Chen was taking the top-grade Juyuan pill, and a strange look flashed in their eyes inadvertently.
