Weird cultivation of immortality starts with possessing a mysterious book

After spending a few days to settle down, Gu Xing successfully broke through to the late stage of Qi training.

Before it rotted, he also made the remaining stomach pouch of the gluttonous rabbit into a trick weapon.

It's just a pity that what came out was not a storage artifact, and the quality was much worse than his previous ones. It could only be regarded as an ordinary, low-level artifact.

Its ability is to preserve food from rotting, but the stomach pouch is too small to be of much use, so it was thrown into the Taoist Hall by Gu Xing in exchange for fifteen points.

As a result, Gu Xing had a huge sum of thirty points.

And with more points, Gu Xing's thoughts became active again.

The shadow caused by the Mother Insect of All Things last time was too profound, so Gu Xing decided to go to Tao Pavilion to find a Taoist technique that could protect his consciousness.

"Green Lotus Terrace"

The name is a bit difficult to understand, but after successful cultivation, a green lotus platform can be formed in the mind to protect one's consciousness.

This Taoist skill is only a low-grade Taoist skill, but it cost Gu Xing twenty-five points.

Kung Fu and Taoism related to consciousness and soul have always been expensive, and their cultivation is also unusually difficult.

It took a full five days before Gu Xing managed to get started and condensed a green lotus platform in his mind.

At this time, almost a month had passed since Gu Xing entered the Taoist temple.

Gu Xing counted the time and it was time to reclassify.

Before that, there was another assessment for them.

But it's not another weird test, this time it's just a simple test.

The exam content is what they have learned this month, including language, practice, weirdness, miscellaneous practice, etc., to test their mastery of these knowledge.

The number of subjects is not too many, so Gu Xing is not worried.

At least what he is learning now is much easier than the exam-oriented education in his previous life.

"Brother Gu, how are you?"

Before the exam, Gu Xing met Roy.

Roy has been practicing these days, but his cultivation talent is only second-level, and he is still in the stage of condensing the vortex of true energy until now.

"OK How about you?"

Roy frowned.

"Others are fine. I don't understand many things about cultivation and miscellaneous matters, because I have been busy with cultivation and have no time to study these."

"How can you not understand that there is only one day left before the miscellaneous exam, so I will make up for it for you?"

"Thank you, Brother Gu."

Roy was overjoyed and hurriedly asked all kinds of questions.

After Gu Xing listened, he found that they were all very simple questions, so he started to talk.

After the exam.

"How is it?" Gu Xing asked.

Roy was very excited and rushed over and hugged Gu Xing.

"Brother Gu, you are amazing. You have passed many of the points you mentioned. I can at least pass this time."

Gu Xing smiled and said nothing.

But at this moment, a bell suddenly rang.

Gu Xing raised his head and looked in the direction where the bell was coming from, which was the location of the Taoist Hall.

"This is the disciple summoning order! It seems that the Taoist Hall has an urgent mission."

Holding the exam paper, Wen Ying, who was as gentle as the breeze, also raised her head and murmured.

Someone nearby asked the disciples what the summoning order and urgent tasks were.

Wen Ying explained to them, and Gu Xing, standing by, also understood.

That is, when some emergency occurs and a large number of manpower is needed, the Taoist Hall will issue a disciple summoning order.

And for this kind of urgent task, the reward is usually extremely generous.

As a result, many people were moved and went to the Taoist Hall one after another.

"Brother Gu, are we going?"

Roy also seemed interested, but he still asked Gu Xing first.

"Go and see."

Gu Xing said, and then the two of them went to the Taoist Hall.

When they arrived, the Taoist hall was already crowded, and from time to time someone took over the task and ran out.

After finally squeezing in, Gu Xing also saw the details of the mission.

In the Black Wind Mountain in the outer city, a large number of strange blood rats appeared, and those blood rats were scattering in all directions in the outer city.

And their mission is to kill these blood rats to prevent them from harming ordinary people.

Seeing this, Roy asked doubtfully.

"Why are there so many strange things happening in the outer city? Won't the morning bell in Yucheng kill them?"

Judging from his questions, he must have rarely been exposed to these things and was immersed in practice.

Gu Xing explained to him.

"The scope of the morning bell's power is limited. Even the original morning bell and dusk drum of the Great Zhou Dynasty can only cover the capital city, let alone the imitations in these cities and villages."

"Besides the one at the city gate, there is only one morning bell in Yucheng in the city lord's palace, and that one doesn't even cover half of the inner city."

"Even if you are in the Taoist Temple, you won't be able to feel the power of the morning bell, and the Taoist Temple is already close to the City Lord's Mansion."

"Therefore, in most cities, the morning bells placed at the city gates only serve to prevent strange things from entering the city. As for the strange things that break in, unless you carry the morning bell with you everywhere, it will be difficult to deal with it on a large scale."

"Moreover, Morning Bell is not invincible. After all, it is just a magic weapon, and the power of magic weapons is limited. Even the Morning Bell cannot deal with some things that are too powerful and weird."

Naturally, the instructors would not go out of their way to talk about these things. They were all seen by Gu Xing himself.

In the Taoist hall, there are books for sale at cheap prices. Gu Xing will buy some from time to time to learn about various information about the world.

Hearing this, Roy seemed to realize something, but then he asked again.

"Then why don't the mentors take action? They are so powerful, they should be able to deal with it quickly, right?"

At this time, Gu Xing looked at him thoughtfully.

"Guess why those blood rats appear in large numbers in the outer city?"

After the events of the Gluttonous Rabbit and the Mother Worm of All Creatures, Gu Xing no longer had any hope in certain higher-ups.

People's hearts are always unpredictable, and some people are even more vicious than weird.

The mentors need to hide behind them to guard against these people.

Roy was certainly not a fool. After saying this, he immediately knew that this matter probably involved a lot, and then he asked.

"Then do we still need to take on the mission?"

"Of course."

"Why?" Roy was confused.

"Of course it's because it pays well!"

Gu Xing looked at the reward column and felt a little confused.

Ten mortal-level blood rats have one point, dangerous-level blood rats have one point, and vicious-level blood rats have ten points. From there, there is no upper limit.

Naturally, weird people do not have a fixed level, they will also advance, and the usual description of their level is only based on the average level.

As for blood rats, apart from their numbers, they really don't have much danger.

And it just so happens that their number, with such generous rewards, has become an advantage.

only--

"Brother Gu, if you want to take on the mission, the mission requires you to form a team. Each team must have at least four people. There are only two of us. Who else are we looking for?"

Gu Xing was also a little worried about this.

Due to a certain famous incident, Gu Xing's reputation among freshmen was not very good, so he had few friends.

As for Roy, he is introverted and busy practicing, so naturally he has few friends.

As a result, the two of them couldn't even find a suitable teammate in their minds.

But at this time, someone squeezed over and asked.

"Gu Xing, do you want to take on this urgent mission?"
