The ancestor of talismans

Soon, Shen Gongtu reported the task. Xu Changshou wrote incomplete information and did not write the date. Shen Gongtu wrote the date.

After finishing it, he handed the jade slip to Xu Changshou and said: "Go to the back hall and hang up your task. Remember, it must be hung in the miscellaneous column in the purchasing area. The fragments of the thousand-year-old spirit wood belong to miscellaneous items. If you hang it in the wrong area, there is no guarantee that you will be able to buy what you want.”

"Thank you, fellow Daoist Shen Gong, for reminding me."

"Go!"

Shen Gongtu waved his hand, and Xu Changshou took the jade slip and walked towards the back hall.

When we arrived at the back hall, there were more and more people. There were more than a dozen foundation-building monks in the entire hall looking at the jade slips, all here to take on the task.

Xu Changshou took a look and saw that the four walls of the back hall were all covered with jade slips.

There are three major areas on the four walls. Among them, the left and right walls have signs for buying and selling respectively.

The walls at the front and back have signs with missions written on them.

Xu Changshou took a general look at the wall with tasks written on it, and subdivided it into many columns.

Like murder-hunting missions, medicine-gathering missions, monster-hunting missions, group missions, adventure missions...

There are dozens of different tasks.

After looking around for a week, Xu Changshou walked towards the wall with the purchase sign. This wall also had its own columns, like: flying swords, magic weapons, ores, metal materials, elixirs, medicinal materials, jade, thousand-year spirit. Wood……

Xu Changshou looked at it for a long time before he found the miscellaneous column in a corner.

Xu Changshou scanned several jade slips with his spiritual consciousness, and some information suddenly came into his mind.

Want to buy: Ten blood jade beads, priced at fifty spiritual stones.

Want to buy: a rosin wood box...

Want to buy: waste elixir...

Want to buy: scrapped magic weapon...

Want to buy: Ten deep-sea abalones, fresh...

After looking at dozens of jade slips, Xu Changshou shook his head slightly. No wonder there was nothing serious in the miscellaneous column.

Xu Changshou even saw many ingenious gadgets in the houses he wanted to buy.

Xu Changshou hung his jade slip in a conspicuous position casually.

At the same time, each branch of the Immortal Cultivator Guild also had the same jade slip asking for scrap wood, which was hung in their respective miscellaneous columns.

The information between the headquarters and branches of the Immortal Cultivation Union is synchronized.

After completing his task, Xu Changshou did not leave, but stayed here to read the tasks posted by others.

There are all kinds of strange tasks. Xu Changshou didn't know it before he came here. Many things can be done without you having to do anything as long as you have money.

Except killing people.

In the Eastern Immortal Cultivation World, 90% of the cultivators are from the five major immortal sects. Therefore, killing tasks cannot be issued in the Immortal Cultivation Guild.

Of course, every immortal sect has a place to publish tasks. Murderous tasks can be posted in one's own sect, but there is a prerequisite: tasks to hunt down one's own disciples cannot be posted.

In addition to the tasks posted, Xu Changshou was also dazzled by the tasks of purchasing things.

Before coming here, Xu Changshou didn't even know that there were so many strange and weird things in the world of immortality.

Sadly, Xu Changshou read all the sales tasks, but there was no column for selling thousand-year-old spiritual wood.

There is a column for buying thousand-year-old spiritual wood, with a few jade slips hanging sparsely on it.

This shows that among ordinary immortal cultivators, the demand for thousand-year-old spiritual trees exceeds the supply.

Xu Changshou was glad that he did not directly announce the mission to purchase the Millennium Spiritual Wood. Even if he did, he might not be able to buy it.

"By the way, do you want to take on a mission?"

Suddenly, such a thought flashed through Xu Changshou's mind.

There is a distance of 30,000 miles from Wanxianfang City to Pingyangfang City. Xu Changshou wanted to pick up a mission on the way back.

Xu Changshou was a little unwilling to accept hundreds of spiritual stones stolen from him at the Immortal Cultivator Guild, and wanted to take on a mission to see if he could earn back the lost spiritual stones.

Of course, the premise for him to accept the task is that, first, it cannot be a too dangerous task.

Xu Changshou is not short of money, so there is no need to do dangerous tasks to make money.

Second, Xu Changshou was going back to his sect, so he picked up a task on the way and completed it without wasting time.

There are so many tasks in the Immortal Cultivation Guild, and there will definitely be one that suits you.

Thinking of this, Xu Changshou began to select the mission jade slips.

Escort mission: Escort the Zhou family to collect medicine, destination Okura Mountain.

This won’t work, Okurayama is not going your way.

Demon-killing mission: Go to the Seven-Star Pool and kill the water demon in the pool.

This is a convenient way, but it won't work. I don't know how strong the water demon is, and the risk is too great.

Escort mission: Go to Guan City and escort the Mohist disciples.

No, this is not going well either.

…

Xu Changshou looked at dozens of tasks, but none of them were satisfactory. They were either too far, too dangerous, or too hard.

At this time, Xu Changshou's eyes were suddenly attracted by the message on one of the jade slips:

Demon slaying mission: Go to Cangzhou, help your uncle's family kill the demons, and be rewarded with a thousand-year-old water willow tree stump.

The stump of a thousand-year-old water willow is a good thing.

Seeing this reward, Xu Changshou couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. He cheered up and looked at the task seriously.

This is a mission issued by a family of cultivators named Taishu. Recently, a monster has targeted their Taishu family, causing many disciples in the family to be killed.

Therefore, Taishu's family issued this demon-eliminating mission, calling on fellow Taoists from all walks of life to help Taishu's family eliminate demons and defend Taoism.

This is a group task, and many people can take it. However, the people of Taishu's family promised that whoever helps them eliminate the evil will get the thousand-year-old water willow stake.

This family of immortal cultivators named Taishu is a vassal family of the Hehuan Sect. There are many disciples in the sect who are practicing in the Hehuan Sect.

Their family is not far from Pingyangfang City.

Seeing this message, Xu Changshou couldn't help but frown.

He has dealt with people from the Hehuan Sect a lot. Maybe because of practicing the dual cultivation method, the people of the Hehuan Sect are very evil, and Xu Changshou doesn't like the people of the Hehuan Sect.

Looking down, there is another picture of a stake. From this picture, you can see that this is a complete tree stump with tree roots underneath.

Such a big stump must be at least 500 kilograms.

However, the value is not too great, because it is all tree roots, and it is good enough to refine two or three flying swords.

If it is in Xu Changshou's hands, it will be useful. You know, 500 kilograms of thousand-year-old spiritual wood can make 5,000 spiritual talismans.

This wooden stake is enough for his eight or nine years of tasks.

Xu Changshou was tempted.

If he could get this wooden stake, he could focus all his attention on cultivation in the next ten years.

In ten years, he could condense two drops of foundation-building true liquid, which means that within ten years, he could enter the middle stage of foundation-building.

This temptation was too great.

Indeed, whoever helped the Taishu family get rid of the evil spirits would be rewarded. Xu Changshou might not be able to get rid of the evil spirits, but even if he couldn't, he could buy the thousand-year-old water willow wooden stake from someone who did.

Should he take it?

Although he was tempted, Xu Changshou fell into thought...

He found two loopholes in this task.
