Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 940 - 938: Collecting the Elixir of Eternal Youth
Half a day, one Dragon Tiger Pill, seven thousand Contribution Points, even a Core Disciple cannot withstand such consumption!
"Looks like I need to quickly take on tasks to earn Contribution Points!"
Feeling the effects of the Dragon Tiger Pill rapidly being absorbed within his body, Chu Ming thought with a bitter smile.
Originally, he thought five million Contribution Points would support his cultivation for a long time, but unexpectedly, it is far from enough!
This was even after he relied on the Freshman Battle to seize a large amount of Contribution Points; otherwise, earning fifty thousand Contribution Points would take who knows how long!
Half a month later, Chu Ming, with his Soul Power, entered the Task Hall through his Identity Token, checking the tasks arranged for palace disciples by the Nine Elements Dao Palace!
In the Nine Elements Dao Palace, most tasks require entering certain Secret Realms, all of which are controlled by the Nine Elements Dao Palace, except for a few that need to be completed in the Celestial Net Star Realm outside the palace!
Based on fundamental task difficulty, these tasks and secret realms are generally divided into five levels: simple, ordinary, difficult, purgatory, and nightmare!
Simple Level tasks are the safest, even for Outer Palace Disciples, posing no danger; however, the Contribution Points rewarded are naturally the least, with only a bit over a hundred points for completing a task!
Ordinary Level tasks are relatively difficult, with a fifty percent mortality rate for Outer Palace Disciples; nonetheless, completing an ordinary task can reward one to two thousand Contribution Points!
Onwards, difficult level tasks are usually taken by Inner Palace Disciples, posing significant risks, even for Inner Palace Disciples with a Seventh or Eighth Layer Emperor Dao cultivation, an uncareful encounter could lead to their demise!
Purgatory Level tasks are only for a few top Inner Palace Disciples qualified to take on; others are assured a dead end if they try. Such tasks often require fighting Saint Dao experts, possibly even slaying a First Heaven Saint Dao expert, and completing one such task rewards at least fifty or sixty thousand Contribution Points!
As for Nightmare Level tasks, they are prepared for Core Disciples, and at Chu Ming's current level, he cannot even view the specific contents of the Nightmare Level tasks!
Hu!
"With my current strength, taking on difficult level tasks should be no problem!" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎
After reading the description of these tasks, Chu Ming exhaled deeply and secretly thought to himself.
Chu Ming closed the interfaces for other task levels, leaving only the difficult level task interface open, browsing through it slowly.
"Enter Celestial Blood Continent, slay Blood Butcher, reward twelve thousand Contribution Points, five hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Crystals.
Note: Blood Butcher possesses a strength comparable to the ordinary Ninth Heaven of Emperor Dao; it is suggested that the taker's cultivation is above the Eighth Heaven of Emperor Dao!"
"Eradicate Wind Wolf Bandits, Wind Wolf Bandits is a gang of bandits in the Black Blood Secret Realm, numbering several hundred, bandit leader has a middle stage Ninth Heaven of Emperor Dao cultivation, has killed many Inner Palace Disciples, rewards fifteen thousand Contribution Points, one million two hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Crystals!
Note: Suggested taker should have a Ninth Heaven of Emperor Dao cultivation, or be two disciples with peak Eighth Heaven of Emperor Dao cultivation!"
"Collect Snow Silver Ore, Snow Silver Ore is within Blue Mountain Continent, guarded by Martial Artists with a Saint Dao expert overseeing, rewards five thousand Contribution Points, three hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Crystals for every collected piece!"
...
These tasks for regular Inner Palace Disciples present quite a challenge!
"Hmm? This one then!"
Chu Ming's gaze fixed on a task!
"Head to Black Eye Continent, collect Elixir of Eternal Youth, rewards eight thousand Contribution Points, five hundred thousand Middle Grade Spirit Crystals for each collected batch!
Note: Demons exist in Black Eye Continent, suggested taker should have a cultivation above the Eighth Heaven of Emperor Dao!"
The task of collecting Elixir of Eternal Youth can be repeatedly submitted, with no limitation!
Elixir of Eternal Youth is a peculiar liquid; a mere drop can grant eternal youth to mortals, though for Martial Artists it's largely useless, especially within the Nine Elements Dao Palace, where most are above Emperor Dao cultivation, even Life and Death Realm King cultivations are scarce!
However, Elixir of Eternal Youth has another use, it can preserve the potency of elixirs when soaked in it, ensuring the effects remain unchanged no matter how long they are stored!
Swoosh!
Having taken the task, Chu Ming flew towards the Teleportation Hall; Black Eye Continent is also one of the Secret Realms controlled by the Nine Elements Dao Palace, classified as a difficult level Secret Realm; only through the Teleportation Array in the Teleportation Hall can Chu Ming enter Black Eye Continent!
Swoosh!
Paying five thousand Middle Grade Spirit Crystals, Chu Ming stepped into the Teleportation Array!
His vision brightening, what appeared before Chu Ming was a gray continent, desolate and boundless to the eye!
Black Eye Continent used to be a high-level continent but was invaded by demons, drifting into an alternate dimension until discovered by a Nine Elements Dao Palace powerhouse, who employed Heaven-Reaching Power to capture it directly into the Nine Elements Dao Palace!
"In Black Eye Continent there are demons; Elixir of Eternal Youth, being a superior Emperor Level treasure, would surely stir these demons; presumably, most of the Elixir is in their possession!"
Chu Ming chose a direction, flying while contemplating!
Black Eye Continent is a difficult level continent; its strongest should be the top Demon Emperor, akin to a peak Ninth Heaven of Emperor Dao expert, slightly exceeding Chu Ming's current strength!
"Chu Ming, actually you can use the Eye of Illusion to search for Elixir of Eternal Youth!"
At this moment, Little Ai reminded in his mind.
"Oh? Eye of Illusion?"
Chu Ming's expression shifted!
"Indeed, Eye of Illusion is a Lower Grade Sacred Artifact, not just for annihilating True Spirits; it has many uses. You can absolutely employ the Eye of Illusion to pierce through space, discern illusions, and seek the hidden Elixir of Eternal Youth!"
Little Ai patiently explained.
"I'll give it a try!"
Chu Ming nodded slightly, summoning the Eye of Illusion; at his brow emerged a pitch-black vertical eye, terrifying, seemingly able to pierce everything; under this eye, nothing in the cosmos could hide!
"Indeed, it's correct!"
Chu Ming scanned into the distance, his vision brightening; everything around seemed altered, as if the world instantly became clearer; in a gray canyon three miles away, he distinctly felt a vibrant aura!
"There's Elixir of Eternal Youth!"
Chu Ming rejoiced internally; Eye of Illusion is a perfect tool for searching for Elixir of Eternal Youth; under its gaze, no matter how concealed the Elixir is, it couldn't escape his discovery!
