Cultivation: I Can Reincarnate Into Various Worlds-Chapter 592 - 303, Hall Master level treatment, Grade 4 Spiritual Object Flying Cloud Gold_2

The grey-robed old man accepted the storage bag, his gaze towards Xu Xing softening considerably.

Ordinary cultivators, in the early stages of joining the Emperor's Son Pavilion, are often cautious and wary of the Pavilion. Unlike Xu Xing, who tried to establish connections and seek cooperation from the very beginning. It was precisely because of this that he believed Xu Xing to be a cultivator with potential.

"The position of Outer Chamber Hall Master of North Yue Country is currently held by Purple Fox. In a short while, he will enter seclusion cultivation at the General Pavilion to break through to the late stage of Nascent Soul..."

"The sects in North Yue Country..." The grey-robed old man glanced outside. "Your Immeasurable Sect is considered the foremost power among them. With this qualification, the General Pavilion should make an exception to promote you."

He did not readily promise to promote Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing immediately, instead deferring the matter to the Emperor's Son Pavilion General Pavilion.

"Elder Stone Monkey is only one step away from becoming an Inner Chamber Elder. At that time, we hope Elder Stone Monkey will put in a good word for us at the General Pavilion..."

Understanding his implied meaning, Yan Luanqing's expression brightened into a smile, and she offered a compliment to the grey-robed old man.

"Although I cannot promote your positions right now," the grey-robed elder stroked his beard and smiled upon hearing Yan Luanqing's complimentary words, "I do have the authority to upgrade your Tokens by one level. You will also be able to accept hall master-level tasks..."

After saying this, he had Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing take out their Tokens. He performed a few spells, then had them put the Tokens away again.

A few moments later, Xu Xing saw that the interior of his Token had changed. Several magical prohibitions had been altered, and many new tasks marked as "Xuan Rank" had been added.

Although these Xuan Rank tasks were somewhat more difficult than Yellow Rank tasks, the remuneration was doubled.

Yellow Rank tasks offered at most one to two Merit Points.

Xuan Rank tasks, however, offered three to five Merit Points.

"Every six months, the tasks within the Tokens will be refreshed. At that time, Daoist Chang and Daoist Yan, you must remember to quickly secure the good tasks..."

Leaving these words behind, the grey-robed old man did not linger. With a flick of his sleeve robe, he and the cultivators from the Emperor's Son Pavilion behind him transformed into a cloud of smoke and vanished from the Immeasurable Sect's blessed land.

...

...

「Half an hour later.」

In the Immeasurable Sect Great Hall.

Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing were seated on opposite sides of the Yuntai. Floating before them were the jade slip given by the grey-robed old man and the Tokens symbolizing their status in the Emperor's Son Pavilion.

"There are two Yellow Rank tasks and one Xuan Rank task available for us to undertake, with minimal danger."

After a long moment, Yan Luanqing opened her eyes. She used a spell to retract the jade slip and Token before her, placed them in her sleeve, and spoke to Xu Xing.

After the grey-robed old man had departed from the Immeasurable Sect, she and Xu Xing had immediately begun to study the various tasks in the Tokens and the resources available for exchange in the jade slip.

"What tasks?" Xu Xing asked, waving his sleeve to draw the jade slip and Token into his palm.

Just now, after reviewing the jade slip, he found that he could complete more than half of the tasks listed with his own strength.

But a tree that stands out in the forest is bound to be toppled by the wind. That was why he had come to the Immeasurable Sect: to team up with Yan Luanqing, complete the Emperor's Son Pavilion tasks together, and thereby conceal his own prominence and reduce the chances of encountering trouble.

In the Cultivation World, emphasis is placed on "Law, Companion, Wealth, and Land," with "Companion" ranking second.

Freelance Cultivators of the same level are always inferior in status to cultivators from sects.

"Black Wind Fiend" certainly doesn't sound as intimidating as "Black Wind Twin Fiends."

Tribulation cultivators often prefer to target lone freelance cultivators as easy prey. However, they are generally less inclined to take risks against cultivators traveling in pairs.

Yan Luanqing pondered for a moment and said, "The two Yellow Rank tasks are ranked one hundred and sixth and three hundred and twenty-fourth, respectively..."

"The former is an escort mission: to escort the Rong Family, a cultivator family in Liang Country, as they relocate, find a suitable Spirit Land to re-establish their family, and fend off the evil cultivator, Star River Demon Lord..."

"Our sect has absorbed so many Spirit Lands from Silver Ring Zhai; there are plenty of third-rank Spirit Lands remaining. Renting one to the Rong Family shouldn't be difficult."

"The tricky part is the Star River Demon Lord. However, with our combined strength and the friendly relations we have with many sects in North Yue Country, we can drive him away if he dares to come to North Yue Country. We can even invite fellow Daoists to join us in exterminating this evil cultivator," she said slowly.

"As for the latter, it's an assassination mission: to assassinate the Chief Elder of Spirit Abyss Gate, who is at the Nascent Soul Early Stage. We only need to lure him out of the sect to ambush and kill him."

When Yan Luanqing mentioned this, her expression was calm, showing no remorse for killing someone who might be innocent.

"These two Yellow Rank tasks are doable and within our capabilities. Liang Country, where Spirit Abyss Gate is located, is not far from North Yue Country..."

"It will only take a few days to reach."

Xu Xing nodded, offering no objection to Yan Luanqing's words.

Hearing this, Yan Luanqing was slightly surprised. "This Yellow Rank mission... Junior Brother Chang, don't you find me cruel and ruthless?"

She had killed many people in her cultivation journey. Most of the cultivators who had died at her hands deserved it. But there were also some against whom she had been merciless, showing no quarter.

She was asking Xu Xing now because, when dealing with Elder Jiu Ling, Xu Xing had not killed him but had instead spared his life. Furthermore, she genuinely valued Xu Xing's opinion.

"Senior Sister Yan, you jest. In our cultivation to this day, whose hands are completely free of innocent blood...?" Xu Xing shook his head.

For a Pride of Heaven like him, reaching the Primordial Spirit Realm was a matter of step-by-step cultivation. But Yan Luanqing had to fight for it! Although such behavior bordered on the demonic path, if she didn't, the only path left for Yan Luanqing was to die of old age. Besides, if they didn't accept the task of killing the Chief Elder of Spirit Abyss Gate, other cultivators from the Emperor's Son Pavilion would. No cultivator who reached the Nascent Soul Realm was truly benevolent.

"It seems I was overthinking things..." Yan Luanqing nodded slightly, setting her worries aside.

"The other Xuan Rank mission is the fifteenth-ranked pursuit mission..."

She then proceeded to introduce the next task.

...

...

After finalizing the three tasks, Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing began to formulate execution plans.

They completed the first Yellow Rank mission—escorting the Rong cultivator Family from Liang Country to North Yue Country—smoothly.

Although Star River Demon Lord attacked them midway, upon sensing the auras of two Nascent Soul Daoist Lords, Xu Xing and Yan Luanqing, he immediately executed a Blood Escape and fled hastily.

To fight two against one, facing two Nascent Soul Daoist Lords of the same realm—Star River Demon Lord knew he wasn't capable of such a feat.

"The mission is completed..."

Half a month later, after the Rong Family had settled and recuperated in North Yue Country, Xu Xing accepted the red token from the Rong Family's clan leader and breathed a sigh of relief.

This red token was also known as the Furious Cloud Order. It was issued by the Emperor's Son Pavilion through Furious Cloud Villa, a sect in the Chu Kingdom. Furious Cloud Villa was a sect in the cultivation world, similar to an escort agency in the mortal world, that specifically took on entrusted duties from cultivators throughout Nanyan Continent.

Furious Cloud Orders, like the tasks of the Emperor's Son Pavilion, were also divided into several levels, corresponding to Yellow Rank and Xuan Rank missions.

"That Star River Demon Lord comes and goes like a ghost. Now that our Rong Family has relocated here, I wonder if that evil cultivator will still trouble us..." an old man leaning on a cane stepped forward, bowed to Xu Xing, and sighed.

Initially, they had assigned the task hoping that the Dao Lords dispatched by Furious Cloud Villa would engage the Star River Demon Lord in a fierce battle, thereby giving their Rong Family some respite. However, they hadn't anticipated that Furious Cloud Villa would send two Nascent Soul Daoist Lords. This directly scared off the Star River Demon Lord, causing the Rong Family's plan to fall through.

"We hope you two seniors can lend us your aid..." The Great Elder of the Rong Family bowed slightly, his face filled with entreaty.

"This Spirit Land belongs to the Immeasurable Sect. Your Rong Family can seek protection from the Immeasurable Sect..." the young man wearing the 'Mysterious Snake' mask said coldly.

As his words fell, the two young cultivators before the Rong Family's Great Elder activated their Escaping Light and departed.

Soon after, within less than half a month, the Chief Elder of Liang Country's Spirit Abyss Gate was assassinated. This news sent shockwaves throughout the nearby countries and their major sects.

「Five years later.」

Inside the Immeasurable Sect's mountain gate, Yan Luanqing gazed at the hovering Flying Cloud Gold before her, a hint of pleasant surprise in her eyes.

"Thank you for your generosity this time, Junior Brother Chang. As for these Merit Points, I will repay you after I reach the mid-stage of Nascent Soul..." she said, bowing solemnly to Xu Xing.
