Eternal Life: I Can Break Through The Limits Of All Methods

Chapter 81: Trial Outside

Chu Ming could also understand what Wu Changqing was thinking.

He definitely didn't want to see the person he had invested resources in turn out to be a cowardly and incompetent individual who couldn't bring him any benefits.

He had indeed acted too timidly, even resisting the idea of going fishing at Golden Scale Lake, showing a lack of character.

While others might know that there would be some danger, they would still rush to the lake, as it was a great opportunity to change their fate.

Wu Changqing arranged for him to go on a trial outside, probably just to toughen him up.

But why did he have to go with Wang Ming?

He didn't really want to get to know this person.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Master, what is the content of this trial?"

Wu Changqing explained, "Recently, a ninth-level Qi Refining one-eyed silver-horned rhinoceros appeared in Yanxia Valley."

"Its horn is extremely precious, and it is said that grinding it into powder and burning it is beneficial for the cultivation of dual cultivation techniques."

"You might have heard of Wang Ming, the male cultivator who got involved with Zhou Junyi, the fellow disciple. He is the grandson of an elder in the Punishment Hall."

"He is proficient in dual cultivation techniques and naturally very interested in this item."

"And the difficulty of killing this Demonic Beast also matches the difficulty of the trial for outer disciples to enter the inner sect."

Chu Ming chuckled inwardly. This Wang Ming was obsessed with dual cultivation.

But it did sound like the rhino horn was quite good. He wondered what specific effects it would have.

Wu Changqing continued, "For this kind of trial, you can bring helpers, but there are certain restrictions on the number and cultivation level."

"For example, a ninth-level Qi Refining can only bring one person and cannot bring any more."

"An eighth-level Qi Refining can only bring three..."

"There are no restrictions on the number for those below the sixth level of Qi Refining, but if there are casualties, it will be considered a failed trial."

"And the people he is bringing are all at the fourth or fifth level of Qi Refining, with the highest not exceeding the sixth level of Qi Refining."

"It can be seen how at ease he is. This trial is like a walk in the park for him."

Chu Ming nodded. This person was, after all, the grandson of an elder in the Punishment Hall and must have many Law Treasure talismans on him.

For him, this trial to enter the inner sect was just a formality.

Finally, Wu Changqing said, "He asked me to help arrange the trial, and I also discussed with him about including you in the team. He said it's not a problem."

"So you can rest assured. There are no formidable Demonic Beasts or evil spirits in Yanxia Valley. Even if there are, Wang Ming can handle it."

"And this person has a strong background in the inner sect. It will be beneficial for you to get to know him."

Chu Ming had also heard of Yanxia Valley. It was located ten miles east of the sect and had many low-level Demonic Beasts at the Qi Refining stage.

Indeed, there was no danger. Many cultivators at the fifth level of Qi Refining dared to go alone to hunt Demonic Beasts.

And that ninth-level Qi Refining one-eyed silver-horned rhinoceros didn't need him to deal with it. Wu Changqing should have arranged for him to just tag along and gain some experience.

Wu Changqing asked, "What do you think? Isn't it too difficult?"

Chu Ming pondered for a moment and felt that there was no need to forcefully refuse. It would be abnormal if he didn't even dare to participate in such a simple trial.

He now had an extra golden scale fish on him and didn't want to attract attention. It would be better to act normal.

Besides, Wu Changqing could provide him with a large amount of cultivation resources. There was no need to create conflicts over such a small matter.

Chu Ming nodded and said, "It's not a difficult task. I will follow Master's arrangements."

"But I haven't had any dealings with Wang Ming before. Will he ignore me?"

Wu Changqing smiled and said, "Don't worry, I've talked to him. He will naturally give me face."

"And when I mentioned you to him, he was also very interested and wanted to get to know you."

Chu Ming felt uncomfortable hearing this. Hopefully, this person had no ulterior motives in getting to know him.

He then said, "In that case, I have nothing to worry about."

"I know that Senior Brother's arrangement is also for the sake of training me, for my own good."

Wu Changqing smiled with satisfaction, "It's good that you can understand my intentions."

"When the time comes, hunt down a Qi Refining fifth-level Demonic Beast or a fiend, and bring back the Beast Core or fur as proof."

Chu Ming smiled, "No problem, after all, I am already at the Qi Refining seventh level, dealing with a Qi Refining fifth-level Demonic Beast will be a piece of cake."

After exchanging pleasantries, Wu Changqing instructed Chu Ming to meet with Wang Ming and others at the plaza outside the hall tomorrow morning.

After Chu Ming left, he continued to use the perception plants outside the council hall to monitor Wu Changqing, ensuring that he had no other intentions.

After he left, Wu Changqing cursed in annoyance, "This Chu Ming, he has great talent but is so timid and cowardly, it's really unacceptable."

The young boy walked up to Wu Changqing, poured tea, and asked, "Elder, it seems like this Chu Ming doesn't have much combat experience."

"What if he accidentally gets injured or dies? Wouldn't the spirit stones you spent be wasted?"

Drinking his tea, Wu Changqing snorted, "If he can die from something like this, then he might as well just die."

"Doesn't that mean he has bad luck?"

"If he can't even catch a fish, if he doesn't have a chance in the Dragon Gate trial, he can die in any simple trial."

"What's the use of cultivating someone with such bad luck?"

Chu Ming chuckled to himself after hearing this. If he didn't have luck, then there wouldn't be anyone lucky in the world.

This Wu Changqing really doesn't care about personal relationships, only about interests.

Of course, from the beginning, Chu Ming didn't plan on repaying Wu Changqing.

But since the other party kept sending him resources, he couldn't refuse.

After finishing the surveillance, he didn't find any other intentions from Wu Changqing, so he returned home with peace of mind and told his junior sister about it.

Xiao Yuying was a bit worried, "This Elder Wu is really troublesome, why does he have to make Senior Brother go out?"

"That Wang Ming doesn't seem like a good person either. If Senior Brother encounters trouble, he might not lend a hand."

Chu Ming patted her shoulder to reassure her, "Don't worry, Senior Brother's strength is not bad, he just doesn't like to show off."

"This time, I'll prove it to Wu Changqing, and he won't bother us anymore."

"You just stay at home tomorrow, I'll go out in the morning and be back by evening. You won't be alone."

"It's safe within the sect now, so you don't have to worry."

Xiao Yuying blushed and smiled, "Okay, I'll wait for Senior Brother to come back."

"Oh, Senior Brother, take this with you."

She took out her protective jade pendant and handed it to Chu Ming.

But Chu Ming didn't accept it and returned it to her.

"You keep it. Senior Brother doesn't need this anymore, and it can protect you."

His perception plants had a range of twenty-five li, so even if he went to Yanxia Valley, he could always keep track of what was happening at home.

If anything happened, he could teleport back at any time, so his junior sister wouldn't be in danger.

But just in case, he thought it would be better to leave the jade pendant with his junior sister.

At night, the two of them had another intimate moment...

The next day, Chu Ming walked out of the house in clean Daoist robes and bid farewell to his junior sister before heading towards the plaza outside the hall.

In the distance, there were constantly inner sect disciples flying towards the direction of the Dragon Gate trial.

They all seemed to be older cultivators, probably sent by the sect to explore and pave the way.

Chu Ming sighed inwardly, originally he thought that he could have a few days of leisure.

But he didn't expect Wu Changqing to find trouble for him and arrange such a trial.

Hopefully, there won't be any trouble.
