System's Super Sect-Chapter 443 - 441, The Fourth Magical Artifact? (3/4)

"Different attack techniques?"

"Yes, the Explosive Flame Star Chasing Cannon expands energy outward from a point. The Vortex Cannon also expands from a point, but it will retract energy again, just like a vortex in the ocean. If the host doesn’t have a clear concept of the Ordinary Level and Basic power, think of it as three times the power of the Explosive Flame Star Chasing Cannon!"

"Three times!"

This concept was very intuitive.

So intuitive that Wen Ping felt he had taken the right task.

Isn’t it just about killing a Mountain Suppression Realm expert at the Divine Profound Lower Realm?

If you don’t take a chance, how will you know you can’t succeed?

Besides, it’s still hard to say what his actual power is now. He could only say that when he looked at Half-Step Divine Profound, the feeling was no longer of looking up, but even somewhat of looking down. However, a Mountain Suppression Realm that couldn’t be killed by the Explosive Flame Star Chasing Cannon was not to be underestimated; at least she didn’t dare to for now.

...

By now, it was nearing noon.

Elders and disciples in the Cultivation Area began to appear one after another in front of the Main Hall. Since the reopening of Wind Valley, the elders have been enthusiastic about entering Wind Valley. Disciples like Zhao Yi routinely entered to seek Red Stones, while Zhantian Qingxuan, Lin Kewu, and others continued their acquisitions.

After all, Red Stones had significant uses in Wind Valley.

"A message!"

While everyone stood around chatting, a red bird hovered in the sky, making a distinctive call. Upon hearing it, Miao Yin immediately pointed!

"Young master, it’s your Ah Hong."

"It should be a message from home, but the Sect Leader on the mountain set up a Maze Array that it couldn’t get through. Miao Yin, go down the mountain and fetch the message. I will convey what the Sect Leader says to you later."

"Young master, could it be something happening at home?"

"What could possibly happen at home? Quickly go and get the message."

With a wave of his hand, Qin Mo sent Miao Yin down the mountain.

At this moment, Wen Ping appeared in front of the Main Hall.

"Come with me."

Wen Ping gestured for Yun Liao to lead as everyone followed Wen Ping to the task hall.

No one spoke, they just followed.

This time, there was no posted charge for the task hall, and everyone was quite excited about it.

No matter which sect, sect tasks were always beneficial to disciples, regardless of their starting point, allowing disciples to profit.

"Everything’s good. What I want to talk about is the task hall’s restrictions. First, you can only take one task per 30 days in the task hall, no exceptions for Elder Yun Liao and the others. Second, all tasks are distributed randomly, you cannot choose them yourself, and once taken, you must complete them. Thirdly, and most importantly, if you take on a task and fail or cannot complete it, one thing you’ve learned from the Immortal Sect will be stripped away."

So harsh.

That was everyone’s first impression.

They thought nothing of the first point, but the second and third points seemed unreasonable.

Especially the last point, which would strip them of something valuable.

Instinctively, Huan Cheng clutched the Dragon-slaying Sword, Luo Mi hugged the Celestial Demon tightly, and Lin Kewu glanced at the Fire Rod.

But no one voiced these concerns. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

When they reached the task hall entrance and saw its full view, everyone’s focus immediately went to the light screens on the three walls.

Wen Ping continued, "All tasks are distributed randomly, I won’t interfere, so whether it’s easy or hard task, it’s all up to your own luck."

"Good luck to you all."

With those words, Wen Ping led everyone into the task hall.

As one task after another passed before their eyes, smiles appeared on their lips.

Compared to the calm elders, Yang Lele and the others reacted enthusiastically, "Qin Mo, Zhao Yi, look... that task, to get through the fourth layer of the Ten Layers Tower, you can gain a 100% comprehension ability for the fifth layer. Kewu, I’ve heard that your strength can now handle the Upper Profound Realm, so maybe you’ll have a chance to obtain the Fire Dragon Skill."

The fifth layer of the Ten Layers Tower was where the Fire Dragon Skill could be found.

Currently, there were nearly 20 people in the sect, but only three could enter each day.

It took roughly seven days to get a turn.

The fifth layer wasn’t a guaranteed comprehension rate, Elder Zhantian Qingxuan entered it just yesterday, passed the fifth layer, yet still didn’t get the Fire Dragon Skill, so this task’s reward was just too enticing.

"Don’t dream about it, the tasks are random. Among so many tasks, who’d have such luck to get this one." Lin Kewu laughed, but Huai Ye beside him immediately poured cold water over the excitement.

Lin Kewu retorted defiantly, "I might get lucky."

Yang Lele, being the one who talks the most and is the most active each time a new structure is built, promptly said: "I think I’ve figured out the Sect Leader’s first rule for allowing only one task per month. These task rewards are incredibly generous. If we could take more than one a month, the Sect Leader wouldn’t be the Sect Leader of our Immortal Sect."

Yang Lele said the last sentence quietly, fearing Wen Ping would hear.

How could this escape Wen Ping’s ears though?

"Lele, do you think once a month is too much?" Wen Ping’s cold voice came through.

Yang Lele forced a wry smile, shaking his head, "Sect Leader, I was just babbling nonsense, you’re so generous, and I was mistakenly thinking you were stingy... hee hee."

As soon as he finished speaking, the people around softly laughed.

Lan Peng, Wanyan, also laughed.

Though they were new, the laughter helped them blend right in.

Wanyan watched this scene, feeling it was very different because she had never seen a sect where a disciple could poke fun at the Sect Leader without penalty.

The relationship between the Sect Leader and Yang Lele was hierarchical, but Wen Ping didn’t posture as being above everyone.

Lan Peng watched this scene, feeling the same many thoughts.

For some reason, he felt that only this kind of sect felt like home.

Many sects brainwashed disciples, saying the sect was their home, but there they had obvious ranks, couldn’t say or do anything wrong—what kind of home is that anyway?

"Elder Yun, you take the first task."

At this moment, Wen Ping spoke up.

The handsome Yun Liao immediately stepped forward, stopping before a light screen Wen Ping pointed out, and slowly extended his hand.

In the light screen, numerous tasks flowed by like water.

Then, one stopped beside his hand, unfolding a new small light screen that landed in front of Yun Liao as he stepped back two paces.

[Trial Task]

[Task Objective: Kill five Profound Realm horse bandits within a month]

[Task Reward: One random Magical Artifact from the Immortal Slaying World]
