Xiuxian, I have a high martial arts world

Chapter 104: Wartime alert, encirclement and suppression mission! (5k)

The sound of the bell could be heard within dozens of miles around Changchun Gate.

At the same time, countless cultivators in the Changchun Mountain Market raised their heads and looked towards the peak that was thousands of feet high.

"The bell rang! What happened at Changchun Gate?"

"Three bells ring... The last time this happened was when the previous Zhen Peak master died!"

"Let's go and have a look!"

For a moment, the entire Changchunmenfang market was in chaos.

Many monks who did not know what was going on looked terrified.

Those who had learned the information in advance were also surprised.

Hundreds of monks were seen flying up in their flying weapons and heading towards Changchun Mountain.

Lin Chen was also shocked and murmured:
"Sure enough, the Blue Star think tank predicted correctly..."

"Let's go and see what the sect's attitude is."

Thinking of this, Lin Chen also took out the purple jade gourd and headed towards the Changchun Mountain Gate.

Along the way, the inner and outer disciples of the sect were all talking and walking in a hurry.

When Lin Chen arrived at Jianfeng, nearly a thousand disciples had gathered in the square.

In the center of the square, Sect Leader Wang Changchun was waiting quietly with a serious expression.

About a quarter of an hour later, seeing that most of the inner and outer disciples had arrived, Sect Master Wang spoke:

"Dear disciples, the bell will ring three times, and our Changchun Sect will enter a wartime state!"

"As for the reason, some disciples may already know it...but I still want to explain it here!"

Sect Master Wang looked around and said slowly:
"About seven days ago, Cen Wushan, a foundation-building disciple of my Changchun Sect's Danfeng, was besieged by robbery cultivators and unfortunately died..."

"After learning the news, the sect quickly sent out several Jindan cultivators to go out and encircle and suppress the robber cultivators."

"After investigation, it was found that the leader of the Wild Wolf Sect, Wild Wolf, was behind that group of robbers!"

After hearing this, the disciples in the square were all surprised.

"Wild Wolf, hiss... that's an old monster at the Jindan stage!"

"Something really big has happened. Even the Jindan cultivators have taken action?"

Some disciples were frightened, while others looked doubtful.

Obviously, they didn't know about Yelangzi's death.

"Quiet!"

Sect Leader Wang shouted softly, his voice was not loud but very penetrating.

All the disciples fell silent.

At this time, Sect Master Wang continued:

"At present, the leader of the Wild Wolf Sect, Wild Wolf, has been killed."

"But after investigation, we found that major robbery forces have frequently emerged within the Yanlai country, and the disciples of the Wild Wolf Sect have also robbed many independent cultivators and disciples of our sect..."

"Therefore, after the sect's decision, a sect mission has been issued to encircle and suppress the robbers and Wild Wolf Sect disciples in Yanlai!"

Sect Leader Wang spoke in a loud voice, and thousands of disciples were all shocked after hearing it.

Wild Wolf, the old monster who had reached the Jindan stage died?
This is a big deal in Yanlai!

At this time, Sect Master Wang also announced the rewards for encircling and suppressing the robbers and disciples of the Wild Wolf Sect.

"All of our Changchun Sect disciples who have reached the late stage of Qi Refining can accept the mission."

"Kill a Qi Refining Early Stage Tribulation Cultivator and you will be rewarded with fifty Spiritual Stones or fifty points of Sect Contribution."

"Kill a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi Refining, and the reward will be doubled. In the late stage of Qi Refining... the reward will be quadrupled!"

After a pause, Sect Leader Wang continued:

"If you kill a Wild Wolf Sect disciple, the reward will be twice that of a cultivator of the same realm... If you capture him alive, the reward will be quadruple!"

"In addition, anyone who obtains information related to the Jie Xiu and Wild Wolf Sect will be rewarded according to their merits."

"The specific bounty will be displayed in the sect's main hall... You can claim it starting today!"

After the sect leader announced the bounty, all the inner and outer sect disciples present were jealous.

This is simply a mission to kill people and make money!

According to the sect leader, if you kill a Wild Wolf Sect disciple in the late Qi Refining stage, you will be rewarded with four hundred spirit stones.

If you capture one alive, you will be rewarded with eight hundred spirit stones!
As the saying goes, there will always be brave men when there is a big reward!
Eight hundred spirit stones are almost equivalent to most of the wealth of a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining.

Not to mention these ordinary sect disciples, even Lin Chen was quite moved after hearing it.

"It's a bit troublesome to capture him alive, but if you kill one person, you will be rewarded with 400 spirit stones. The Wild Wolf Sect has thousands of disciples..."

"If I kill them all... wouldn't that mean I have hundreds of thousands of spirit stones?"

Lin Chen's breathing became a little rapid.

He now felt that the second-level Soul Devouring Spiritual Root was not too far away...

He even thought of running to the Wild Wolf Faction and throwing a few nano missiles.

But after the excitement, Lin Chen quickly calmed down.

"Something is wrong... If we were only to wipe out the robbers and the Wild Wolf Sect, there would be no need to pay such a huge price!"

"Moreover, the sect leader concealed the most important information... The people behind that group of robbers are far from being as simple as the Wild Wolf Sect..."

Lin Chen thought silently.

He was an eyewitness to the encirclement and suppression of the Wild Wolfs and knew some of the inside stories better.

Behind that group of robbery cultivators, there is far more than just the Wild Wolf Sect.

Combined with the speculation of the Blue Star think tank, Lin Chen has sufficient reasons to believe that there are other demonic forces involved behind the scenes.

After thinking it over, he decided to observe for a while.

"I need to be extremely cautious when I take action... Although I have no shortage of spirit stones for the time being, the sect's contribution is very useful..."

In Changchun Sect, there are some special and rare resources that cannot be bought with spirit stones at all.

For example, high-level refining materials, talismans, etc.

"Let other disciples test the waters first. If the risk is low, it won't be too late for me to take action."

Lin Chen looked around, looked at the excited inner and outer disciples around him, and silently retreated and left the sect square.

"Little junior brother!"

Just as Lin Chen was about to return to the market town, a shout came from behind him.

He looked back and saw that it was not someone else but his senior sister Mi Ke'er.

"Senior Sister, is there anything wrong?" Lin Chen asked puzzledly.

Mi Ke'er quickly approached and whispered in Lin Chen's ear:
"Junior brother, it is better not to easily participate in this mission to encircle and suppress the Wild Wolf Faction."

After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded silently and said, "Junior brother is planning to prepare for the foundation building first, and has no time to carry out these tasks..."

Mi Keer breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and suddenly thought of something.

She said, "Brother, Master is currently in seclusion. It is very difficult to break through to the Jindan stage. It may take one or two years..."

"Before that, the master left some resources and pill recipes for you to make pills during this period of time."

After saying that, Mi Keer handed over a storage bag.

After Lin Chen took the storage bag, he felt a little touched.

Instead of returning to the market at the foot of the mountain, Lin Chen took the storage bag and went directly back to the residence of Danfeng disciples.

Opening the storage bag, Lin Chen found that it contained a lot of good things.

There are thousands of spiritual medicines, both first- and second-level. There are also many medicinal spiritual seeds and spiritual stones...

And four second-level pill recipes!

In addition, Han Jihai also left a letter.

"My disciple Lin Chen personally wrote this."

"I have been practicing Taoism for more than 200 years, living in a muddle-headed way, just hoping to protect myself in this chaotic world and protect future generations..."

“However, Wushan’s death made me realize that the Dao is ruthless… Even if one’s foundation is built to perfection, one cannot stay in this chaotic world, let alone protect future generations.”

"Then I will close the gate of death and break the realm of Jindan. If I can't break it, I can't stand it. If I don't come out of the gate within three years..."

"Chen'er, you have excellent aptitude and character. Although you have a secret, I don't want to ask about it... After I go into seclusion, I hope you will not slack off in your practice and be diligent in refining pills..."

"..."

Lin Chen finished reading the new content, which was more than a thousand words long.

The words are full of care...

After reading the letter, Lin Chen was silent for a long time.

For the first time in this strange world, he felt a sense of belonging.

Master, Senior Sister, Second Senior Brother...

Although these people are not relatives, they treat Lin Chen better than relatives.

"Master, I'm afraid he won't be able to condense the golden elixir this time... This letter is half a suicide note."

Lin Chen thought silently.

After reading the letter, Lin Chen began to study the four second-level pill recipes given to him by his master.

They are respectively the second-level Qingyuan Pill and the first-level Yiqi Pill, which are superior elixirs and can be used by the foundation-building cultivators for their practice tomorrow.

The effect of the Qi-boosting pill is greatly reduced during the foundation-building period, and Lin Chen is well aware of this.

But most foundation-building cultivators cannot afford Qingyuan Pills, and they still use Yiqi Pills to practice on a daily basis.

"But for me, money is not a problem... If this Qing Yuan Pill can save me time in cultivation, it will be worth it!"

Lin Chen thought silently.

In addition to the Qingyuan Pill, there are also the common second-level Huiyuan Pill and second-level coagulation pill, which are used to quickly restore true essence and heal injuries.

The only thing that concerned Lin Chen was the last pill recipe.

Ox-Tiger Pill!
"This Ox-Tiger Pill can be exchanged for contribution points in the sect's main hall... one pill is worth hundreds of contribution points!"

"After taking this pill, you can directly increase your strength and strengthen your blood, qi and body... It is a secret medicine passed down from ancient times!"

After Lin Chen finished reading the recipe, he was surprised.

This Ox-Tiger Pill can increase the strength of an ox and a tiger after taking it!
"The strength of an ox and a tiger... According to the recipe, it can add 5,000 kilograms of strength?"

Lin Chen was stunned.

This Ox-Tiger Pill does not temporarily increase your strength by 5,000 pounds after taking it, but permanently increases your strength by 5,000 pounds!

Moreover, according to the recipe, one person can take this pill up to three times, and the effect is halved each time.

This means that with this pill alone, one can increase one's strength by up to about nine thousand kilograms!

What is the concept of nine thousand jin?
For a junior military general, the strength standard is no more than 60,000 jin.

If Lin Chen took three Bull Tiger Pills, he would probably reach the level of a military commander directly...

"Hiss... This Ox-Tiger Pill is absolutely a treasure for warriors!"

Lin Chen read the recipe carefully. This Niuhu Pill is extremely rare and is one of the most precious medicinal materials in Danfeng. The medicinal materials needed to refine Niuhu Pill are not rare.

There is only one medicinal ingredient, which is extremely rare and requires the flesh and blood of a third-level monster.

"A third-level demon beast is equivalent to a Jindan cultivator of the human race!"

"But, are the third-level monsters in this Xiuxian world the same as those on Blue Star?"

Lin Chen was confused and decided to try again after returning to Blue Star.

"However, in addition to the Ox-Tiger Pill, there are several other kinds of pills that can also be learned..."

Thinking of this, Lin Chen went to the alchemy room.

According to the recipe of the elixir, he began to try to make the elixir.

For second-level elixirs, it is more difficult to control the fire and temperature, but Xiao Zi's purple flame spirit fire is of excellent quality, so it is not difficult to refine second-level elixirs.

The first batch of alchemy failed without a doubt.

But he did not lose heart and continued to refine it.

In the next few days, Lin Chen simply stayed in Danfeng.

He spent five or six hours every day refining the elixir, and only refined the second-level Qingyuan Pill.

From being unfamiliar at the beginning to gradually becoming proficient.

By the fourth day, Lin Chen had roughly mastered the method of refining Qingyuan Pill.

"One furnace of pills, the success rate is barely 50%, all of them are low-grade..."

Lin Chen looked at the Qingyuan Pill in his hand and nodded slightly.

He has only mastered the Qingyuan Pill for a few days, and he is already very satisfied with his current level.

"I have almost figured out the steps to refine the Qing Yuan Pill..."

"I don't know what the situation is in the sect now?"

Lin Chen prepared to leave Danfeng and go to the sect hall to see the situation.

Stepping on the purple jade gourd, Lin Chen arrived at the Disciple Square a few minutes later.

At this moment, the Disciple Square was bustling with activity.

In the past, it was considered good to have dozens of people, but now there are two or three hundred inner disciples gathered here.

Even many outer disciples who have reached the middle stage of Qi Refining want to take on the mission.

"Brother, shall we form a team? I have information about a robbery base..."

Not long after Lin Chen arrived, an inner disciple in the late Qi Refining stage came forward to greet him.

He had witnessed Lin Chen’s strength in the sect competition.

Lin Chen shook his head and refused. He planned to observe it for a while longer.

After walking around the Disciple Square for a few rounds, Lin Chen had a general understanding of the situation.

The sect does not want the disciples to die, but rather recommends that several disciples in the late Qi Refining stage go together to carry out the mission.

For example, seven or eight disciples in the late stage of Qi Refining go together to wipe out a certain stronghold of robbery cultivators.

After killing more than ten Tribulation Cultivators, each disciple would receive fifty or sixty contributions from the sect.

Even within just a few days, an industrial chain for encircling and suppressing robbers and repairmen was born.

From selling intelligence, to renting magic weapons, and even hiring sect masters to accompany them...

After going through this series of processes, almost everyone can make a profit, regardless of whether they are strong or weak.

"In this way, the threat of exterminating the robbery cultivators will be greatly reduced."

Lin Chen was calculating silently in his mind.

Just at this moment, a figure suddenly approached.

Lin Chen looked closely and found that it was Li Zhenqian.

He came over and said mysteriously:
"Lin Chen, do you want to carry out the mission with me?"

"I have a way. I found a group of Qi Refining Middle Stage Tribulation Cultivators. There are about 20 to 30 of them... In addition to you and me, there are two brothers in the late stage of Qi Refining..."

Lin Chen looked up and saw that there were indeed two inner sect brothers standing behind Jian Li Zhenqian.

Judging from their cultivation level, they are all at the eighth or ninth level of Qi Refining.

"Let's follow Li Zhenqian and give it a try to see how dangerous it is..."

Lin Chen thought to himself.

So he smiled and said to Li Zhen:
"So it's Fellow Daoist Li... I wonder how the contribution points will be divided if I travel with you?"

After hearing this, Li Zhenqian waved his hand and said:
"Of course, whoever kills them will own them... If you can kill them all, it will be a contribution of several thousand to the sect!"

After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded slightly and asked:

"If so, when do we set off?"

"Let's set off now! The group of robbers is only eight hundred miles away from us. If everything goes well, they will be back in the evening..." said Li Zhenqian.

After hearing this, Lin Chen decided to go along.

"In that case, let's go!"

Hearing Lin Chen's agreement, the other two inner sect brothers were delighted.

They knew Lin Chen's strength, and he probably had no rivals before he reached the foundation building stage.

With Lin Chen accompanying them, their safety is greatly guaranteed this time.

So the group of four people left Changchun Gate in a royal carriage.

The journey of eight hundred miles can be completed in one morning for a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining.

A few of them took a short break during the journey.

It was not until the afternoon that they arrived at a hilltop.

"Old Lin, there is a group of robbers hiding in that mountain. I bought this information for fifty spirit stones."

Li Zhenqian pointed to the col and said.

After hearing this, Lin Chen looked around and saw that there were indeed people living in this barren mountain.

So, several people rested at the foot of the mountain for an hour to recover their strength.

After the state was perfected, he groped his way into the depths of the mountains.

Along the way up the mountain, Lin Chen released his spiritual sense, and after walking for about half an hour, he stopped.

"The robbery cultivator is in that direction." Lin Chen pointed.

According to his spiritual sense, there were more than twenty cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining.

After hearing this, several people immediately took out their magic weapons and slowed down their pace to approach.

When they arrived at the village, they indeed found traces of the robbers.

What followed was a fight!

Lin Chen and his companions took the lead, as they had good magic weapons and high levels of cultivation.

Therefore, even when facing more than twenty people in the middle stage of Qi Refining, he still has a huge advantage.

Lin Chen used his spirit to control the weapon, and three flying knives kept flying through the air.

In less than a quarter of an hour, more than a dozen Tribulation Cultivators died under his sword.

The whole battle lasted about a quarter of an hour.

When more than twenty Tribulation Cultivators fell, Li Zhenqian exclaimed:

"Old Lin, you were too ruthless! I saw your flying knife... you killed at least fifteen people, right?"

Lin Chen was speechless.

You call me Lao Lin all the time. Are we familiar with each other?

Although he complained in his heart, Lin Chen still nodded and said:

"Less than fifteen. To be precise, I think I killed fourteen Tribulation Cultivators..."

Soon, everyone began to claim the bodies and count the spoils.

Fourteen Qi Refining mid-stage Tribulation cultivators would represent the contribution of one thousand four hundred sects.

Taking into account the resources on Jie Xiu's body, Lin Chen earned at least three thousand spirit stones on this trip.

"This money comes too quickly..."

Lin Chen silently counted the goods while looking at several other fellow disciples.

This battle was relatively easy for him.

But for the two brothers in the late stage of Qi Refining, it is a bit difficult.

One of the brothers was stabbed in the abdomen and suffered a serious injury. He will probably need to recuperate for a month or so.

After counting the supplies on Jie Xiu's body, everyone cut off his head and prepared to take it back to the sect to do charity.

There were no accidents on the way back, and by the evening, they had returned to Changchun Gate.

"Junior Brother Lin, you are worthy of being the champion of the sect competition. Your strength is truly amazing..."

The injured senior brother bowed, with excitement in his eyes.

This time, he killed four Tribulation Cultivators, which meant he earned five or six hundred Spirit Stones in one trip.

It only took one day, and it was equivalent to earning half a Foundation Establishment Pill!
How could he not be excited about such a windfall?

Lin Chen nodded slightly, then looked at Li Zhenqian and said jokingly:

"Junior Brother Li has made a lot of money this time. If there is such a good thing next time... don't forget to call me."

After hearing this, Li Zhenqian's eyes suddenly became resentful.

If he had known this earlier, he would not have called Lin Chen. There were more cultivators like Lin Chen on this trip than the three of them combined.

"Old Lin, you have to leave a few for me next time... It takes spirit stones to buy intelligence!" Li Zhenqian said in a condescending manner.

Lin Chen smiled and nodded. After greeting a few people, he walked towards the sect hall.

"Elder Liu, I am here to hand over the task..."

After Lin Chen took out Jie Xiu's head and gained experience, he obtained 1,400 contribution points.

It is not difficult to verify the identity of the robbers. Most of them have criminal records, and you can find out with a quick comparison.

"Junior Brother Lin Chen, you are a very talented young man!"

"Among the disciples who received tasks today, your contribution points ranked first."

Elder Liu from Internal Affairs praised him. He glanced at Lin Chen’s contribution to the sect and asked:

"Junior Brother Lin Chen, do you want to exchange some cultivation supplies?"

After hearing this, Lin Chen nodded slightly. He really wanted to change it.

"I want three Bull-Tiger Pills, and the remaining two hundred contribution points can be exchanged for Cold Iron Stones..."

When Elder Liu heard that Lin Chen needed the Ox-Tiger Pill, he became interested.

"Junior Brother Lin, I watched your competition! With your talent, it would be a pity if you don't cultivate your body! This Ox-Tiger Pill is very suitable for you..."

"However, the quality of the pills is really average. They are all old pills made by your master a few years ago. Are you sure you want them?"
