Chapter 273

"I'll go and ask." Ning Cheng patted Jin Liang'an on the shoulder and walked towards the release place of the Zongmen Mission Hall.

"I want to ask..."

Before Ning Cheng could say a word, he was interrupted by a female cultivator inside, "What mission number do you take? Just give me your identity jade badge and mission number, and don't talk nonsense about anything else."

Ning Cheng said helplessly, "I want to take the task of No. 17..."

The impatient female cultivator shook her hands when she heard Ning Cheng's words, she raised her head and repeated in disbelief, "You said you want to receive the No. 17 mission?"

"I asked you to explain, but you didn't explain, so I had no choice but to take it directly." Ning Cheng said a little depressed.

The female cultivator didn't have an attack this time, but frowned and said, "Up to now, including our Luohong Sword Sect, all the disciples who received the No. One returned, and no one has news. Are you sure you still want to receive the task on the 17th?"

Ning Cheng already knew this, he just asked, "I want to ask, if I don't complete the task, will I be punished if I come back halfway?"

"No, this task was originally voluntary." The nun said without hesitation.

After hearing this affirmative answer, Ning Cheng immediately said, "Okay, then I will accept the task on the seventeenth."

At worst, if he finds danger, he just doesn't go. If he was lucky enough to find out something, the reward from the sect would be enough for him to practice in Xiaolingyu for more than a year.

The nun didn't try to persuade Ning Cheng any more, she nodded and said, "There are some changes in the mission on the 17th this time. There are also disciples from other sects who went there. When you get there, the elders will tell you what to do. Here is the mission jade card and map. And the mission statement. Take it, and good luck."

Ning Cheng walked out of the room where the mission was released, and found that Jin Liangan was discussing something with a few Xuandan monks, and he probably planned to go out together for some mission. Ning Cheng and Jin Liang'an greeted each other, and immediately left the task release hall.

Without even going back to the place where he lived, Ning Cheng went directly to the battle between Daliang Zhenguo and Beishang Zhenguo. He was still a little worried about Liang Kexin and the two of them.

As for the reason for the war between the two real kingdoms, the Jade Slips are very vague. But there is also a possibility.

That is, a few years ago, in the territory of Daliang Zhenguo, at the junction of Beishang Zhenguo, an ancient cave suddenly appeared. Beishang Zhenguo was the first to hear the news,

Immediately occupy this place and explore this ancient cave that suddenly appeared.

But then Daliang Zhenguo also knew that there was an ancient cave in the territory, and of course Beishang Zhenguo would not allow it to occupy it. Immediately, Beishang Zhenguo took the concubine of Beishang Zhenguo abducted under the pretext of Daliang Zhenguo, and asked Daliang Zhenguo to hand over the princess, otherwise he would cede the land for compensation.

Because of this incident, the two countries have experienced several years of war, and countless deaths. In the end, the matter still came out. Some sects got involved in this matter one after another. At this time, this matter was out of control, and it was completely beyond the control of Daliang Zhenguo and Beishang Zhenguo.

The ancient cave mansion was exposed. Instead, the war between the two countries has temporarily ceased. Because this cave is too ancient and huge, and only monks in Yuanhun Realm or below Yuanhun Realm can enter. It is even heard that in the deepest part of the cave, there is a place with the strongest spiritual energy, and only monks under the profound liquid can enter.

Therefore, some Yuanhun monks who participated in the exploration of this cave would bring one or two Xuanye monks with them. In case you encounter this place, you have no way to go in.

But this is where the strange thing happened. The disciples of these sects went to the place where the two countries were at war, and after entering this ancient cave, they disappeared one after another. The last one did not come back, and it is impossible to figure out how the one disappeared.

At the very beginning, there was still an entrance to this cave. At the back, this ancient cave mansion gradually disappeared. Even if this ancient cave disappears, monks at or below the primordial soul level at the location of this cave will still disappear without warning.

These disciples who came out to do the task were all elite disciples of the major sects, and the Huading monks of the major sects immediately couldn't sit still. Some cauldron-forming monks also began to come out, but none of these cauldron-forming monks could find out the reason. Fortunately, although the monk Huading couldn't find out the reason, he didn't disappear like these disciples who were doing the task.

This matter has become a mystery until now. As more and more disciples disappeared, some casual cultivators also began to accept missions from the sect, but they were still missing. As a result, there will be fewer and fewer disciples who take on this task.

In order to find out the truth of this mystery, some monks under the original soul must participate in this task, and the monk Huading can find some clues based on the missing monks.

Ning Cheng put away the jade slips, and he already guessed clearly in his heart that accepting this task is to accept the job of a cannon fodder, or a job of a mouse.

Ning Cheng also knows about himself, he has practiced in Xiaolingyu. If there is no Xiaolingyu in the future, it will be too difficult for him to advance. For Xiaolingyu's one-year training, he also had to fight. Besides, he also has a magic weapon for escape that no one else knows, that is, in the last resort, he can enter the bottom of the blood river by crushing the talisman given by the bone.

Ning Cheng's flying magic weapon is a middle-grade flying weapon. In order to arrive early, Ning Cheng not only activated the flying magic weapon at full speed, but also used Tianyun's wings. Even so, it was not until ten days later that he arrived at the location marked on the jade slip map.

The place that catches the eye is the endless desolation and decay, with potholes everywhere, and some broken weapons and fragments of low-level magic weapons are thrown everywhere. In many places, even the soil is a little dark red, obviously caused by too much blood infection.

Where Ning Cheng's spiritual sense could touch, there was nothing but a dark gray floor.

According to the introduction on the Jade Slip, Ning Cheng knew that this dark gray floor was temporarily built by various sects. If he wanted to accept this task, he had to go to this gray floor first, and then listen to the orders of the sect elders.

Ning Cheng put away the flying magic weapon, and just as he walked to the entrance of the building, he was stopped by two monks, "Which sect?"

Good guy, the two monks who guard the gate are also in the God-shaping state.

"The junior is Ning Cheng, an inner disciple of the Luohong Sword Sect, and he came here specially for this task." Ning Cheng hurriedly answered politely.

The cultivator on the left nodded, "Luohong Jianzong is in the fifth room on the left side of the third floor."

"Thank you." Ning Cheng thanked him again, and quickened his pace to go up the floor.

"Hey, a month ago there were hordes of Primordial Soul cultivators who came to take on the task. Who are they now? Even the first level of Xuandan has come to take on this task." Another cultivator at the Soul Shaping Realm saw Ning Walking away from the city, he shook his head and sighed.

Pointing to the cultivator on Ningcheng Road, he said disapprovingly, "At least three of them came here today. I haven't seen any of them come to do the task in the past few days. I guess this place will be demolished soon. , so many disciples have disappeared, and there is still no clue."

"This is beyond our control..."

Even though Ning Cheng went upstairs, he could still hear the voices of the two cultivators in the God Shaping Realm discussing behind him.

"Come in." Ning Cheng had just walked to the fifth door on the left side of the third floor when a voice came from his ear.

Such a powerful cultivation base, this voice is just like what the other person said, without half the distortion of sound transmission. Ning Cheng didn't dare to hesitate, he quickly opened the door and walked in.

Five monks and monks sat in the room, and two young monks stood in the middle of the room.

The breath of these five male and female monks did not overflow, but it gave Ning Cheng a strong feeling of depression. Ning Cheng couldn't tell what the cultivation bases of these five people were at all, he immediately understood that these five people must be cultivators of the Cauldron Transformation.

"Ning Cheng, an inner sect disciple of Luohong Sword Sect, has met five seniors." Knowing that he was facing five cauldron-forming monks, Ning Cheng didn't dare to neglect, and quickly bowed to greet him.

"Well, that's right. Although his cultivation base is a little lower, he is still calm." Seeing Ning Cheng's calm look, an old man nodded.

A middle-aged Confucian scholar sitting on the right side also nodded in satisfaction to Ning Cheng and said, "Ning Cheng, I think you should be aware of the danger of this task, even if you give up now, it is justifiable. So far, none of the disciples who participated in this mission has been able to return, and we have received very little favorable news. This mission will soon be cancelled, and we will use other methods to track it down."

After hearing the middle-aged Confucian scholar's words, Ning Cheng immediately came up with several meanings. Firstly, this task is very dangerous, and asking disciples to participate is just letting cannon fodder to find clues. Second, because the cannon fodder has received too little favorable news, this mission will not be carried out in this way soon. The third party wants to persuade him to give up this task.

A Huading monk still cares about the life and death of an inner disciple, so it can be seen that this Huading elder is a good person.

Ning Cheng clasped his fists again and said, "Thank you senior for saying clearly, I have all the true disciples and core disciples of the Luohong Sword Sect participating in this mission, and I am just an inner disciple. Participate in the mission of the sect, contribute to the sect, and improve my cultivation at the same time." Because, it's a matter of duty."

A beautiful woman giggled and said, "Elder Bei, this kid from Luohong Sword Sect is very good at talking, and he has a set of tricks."

Hearing these words, Ning Cheng understood that the five Huading monks here are not all from the Luohong Sword Sect, but also from other sects.

The middle-aged Confucian scholar chuckled, "Junior Sister He is over the top, this disciple of your Xingluo Mansion and the female doll of Zhan Qing Dao Sect are much better than Ning Cheng."

After Luohong Sword Sect finished speaking, he continued directly to Ning Cheng, "Ning Cheng, this time you go to check the situation with Xing Hai from Xingluo Mansion and Bu Mei from Slashing Love Dao Sect. Remember that as long as you can find some clues Coming back is tantamount to meritorious service. There is a jade talisman here, if you find that it is not going the right way, crush the jade talisman immediately, and you can be teleported away immediately."

"Yes, this junior understands." Ning Cheng hurriedly responded, and stepped forward to take the jade talisman.
