You must know that although your Silver-patterned Black Crocodile was just a cub, it was the genuine Spirit Beast.
It was barely sold for ten thousand taels of silver.
This pseudo Spirit Beast level Ghost Face Black Plover dared to ask him for eighteen thousand taels, which was almost equivalent to two Silver-patterned Black Crocodile cubs.
Even though the price of the bird type Strange Beast may be more expensive than the land type Strange Beast, it is definitely not to this extent.
But if you think about it carefully, it's not too much. After all, the Strange Beast bought from the Myriad Beasts Hall is a living creature, so there's nothing wrong with it being more expensive.
But such a high price was still too unexpected for him. He came here with no intention of actually buying it. He just wanted to find out the price of Spirit Beast in advance.
After coming out of the Myriad Beasts Hall, he didn't stop and went straight to Wanhua City East District. He stopped in front of an antique shop and then walked in.
This antique shop is where Dark Star resides in Wanhua City.
After a while of code words, Lin Sheng showed his Gray Star Emissary Emblem and was led into the backyard of the antique store by the contact.
"What do you want?"
The person in charge of the station is a middle-aged woman with good facial features and still has charm. However, a large area of skin on one cheek has been burned, completely ruining the original beauty.
The woman looked at Lin Sheng and spoke calmly.
Lin Sheng just glanced at the woman. After all, everyone in Dark Star organization is good at pretending, and the appearance of the woman in front of him may not be real.
"I want to take over the commissioned task."
"There are all wooden signs hanging on the wall in front. Just pick out whichever one you want and give it to me."
The woman didn't have any surprises, she said calmly, and then turned and left the room, leaving Lin Sheng alone.
Not paying attention to these, Lin Sheng walked to the wall covered with wooden signs and glanced over each wooden sign.
The number of commissioned tasks here is much greater than that at Tongzhi Station.
And hanging in the first place is the same Dark Star level mission as Tongzhi at that time, assassinating King Yan Zhao Hongzhang.
He just glanced at it, looking away from the Dark Star-level and Lier-star missions. These two levels of missions were still too far away from him now.
His attention is mainly focused on the Gray Star Emissary and Hidden Star Emissary tasks.
[Hidden Star Mission: Congyun Mountain Range There is Cold Spirit Withered Night Grass in the purple bamboo forest. Bring back a complete Cold Spirit Withered Night Grass, and you will be rewarded with 500 merit points.]
"Cold Spirit Withered Night Grass..."
He had never heard of this name, but Congyun Mountain Range was somewhat familiar with it. Congyun Mountain Range was the largest mountain range in Linjiang Prefecture. This might not be accurate, because Congyun Mountain Range straddled the two prefectures. In addition to Linjiang Prefecture, part of it was also within the boundaries of Yuntian Prefecture.
It almost completely separates the two prefectures, which shows how big the Congyun Mountain Range is.
Congyun Mountain Range is densely packed with Strange Beast, and many rare Heavenly Treasures are conceived in it. However, compared to the Heavenly Treasures inside, the danger level is even greater.
Among them, there are an extremely large number of Spirit Beast, and various poisons Miasma are scattered throughout. Even Blood Circulation Practitioner, which is already extremely resistant to poisons, only dares to move around the outer areas and enters rashly, and basically escapes death.
Even Demon Beast definitely has more than one among them.
More than once, Demon Beast came out of the Congyun Mountain Range and entered the land of the two mansions. Each time, it caused nearly devastating damage to the cities near the mountains.
Fortunately, this kind of thing has not happened for many years. The last time was decades ago, and the cities near the Congyun Mountain Range have long since moved away from the Congyun Mountain Range.
Even the Imperial Court force, which is full of experts, has nothing to do with Demon Beast in the Congyun Mountain Range and dare not rush into it to attack.
The purple bamboo forest where Cold Spirit Withered Night Grass is located is located at the junction of the middle and outer parts of the Congyun Mountain Range. As a hidden star-level mission, its difficulty level is definitely extraordinary.
Moreover, the Purple Bamboo Forest was quite far away from Wanhua City, so Lin Sheng just paused and lost much interest.
There are many Strange Beasts in the Congyun Mountain Range. He is indeed very interested, but it is not the time yet. When his strength improves, he will not have to go to these Congyun Mountain Ranges.
He looked at a few more stealth-level tasks, but the difficulty level was much higher than he imagined, so he still focused on the Gray Star Emissary level tasks.
There are a lot of gray star level tasks. At first glance, there are more than 20 wooden signs. Lin Sheng quickly glanced at these wooden signs and quickly settled on the third wooden sign from the bottom on the left.
[Gray-star mission: There is a group of Red-haired Bandits outside Pingshan County causing trouble. Kill the leader of Red-haired Bandits, Red-haired Ghost Luo Hu, and you will be rewarded with one hundred merit points.]
"Red-haired Ghost Luo Hu..."
Lin Sheng muttered softly, finally took off the wooden sign and walked away.
"Have you chosen? Give me the mission sign and I will register it for you."
The middle-aged woman outside the door saw Lin Sheng coming out, spoke calmly, and took the wooden sign from his hand.
After taking a look at the task on it, the middle-aged woman showed a hint of surprise on her face. She looked at Lin Sheng up and down, and finally spoke coldly.
"This group of Red-haired Bandits is not weak in strength. The leader Red-haired Ghost has been confirmed to be Blood Circulation Practitioner. Are you sure you can take it? Don't blame me for not reminding you. There are already two Gray Star Emissary who have folded on top of this Red-haired Ghost."
At this point, the woman in the middle paused for a moment before continuing.
"And compared to the difficulty of this mission, the mission rewards are not rich, so think about it."
"That's it, I've already thought about it."
Lin Sheng just spoke calmly.
"Okay."
Seeing this, the woman was too lazy to say anything. She took out a booklet from a secret compartment, quickly recorded some information, and then waved her hand.
"Okay, it's been recorded. You can go. The mission time limit is one month. If you can kill Luo Hu within one month, the mission will be successful."
"Okay."
Lin Sheng was about to turn around and leave, but after taking a few steps, the woman seemed to remember something and called him from behind.
"By the way, the customer of your mission has a request. Before you go to kill Luo Hu, he needs to meet you first. The location is at No. 175, Shuixiang Street, Wanhua City."
"Got it."
Lin Sheng paused for a moment, threw out a sentence, and then walked out of the antique shop.
Watching Lin Sheng disappear from sight, the middle-aged woman snorted coldly.
"Blood Circulation didn't even step in, yet he dared to take on this task. Another idiot. The quality of the organization is really getting worse..."
Shaking her head slightly, the woman looked away and started busying herself.
On the other side, Lin Sheng walked out of the antique shop.
He was also calculating in his mind, and he had his own considerations in taking on this task.
Compared with other Gray Star Emissary tasks, the merit rewards for this mission are pretty good, and you don't have to waste too much time.
After all, the exact target is already there and the approximate location is clear.
And the most important point is that the reward for this mission is not just the 100 merit points on the surface.
There is a bandit group with Blood Circulation level warriors. You don't need to think about it to know that there must be a lot of property in this group of bandits.
The net worth accumulated by Blood Circulation Practitioner alone should not be a small amount.
Therefore, the benefits that can be gained from annihilating this group of bandits are not a small amount.
If he's lucky, it might be enough for him to buy a Spirit Beast bird.
So I have to give it a try.
Before his breakthrough, he might not have been sure of facing Blood Circulation Practitioner, but since he broke through and had Blood Demon Centipede enter his body, his strength has been greatly improved compared to before.
There shouldn't be many people in Blood Circulation Practitioner who can be his opponents.
Of course, he didn't intend to go directly to find Red-haired Ghost.
Without rushing to see the so-called customer, Lin Sheng bought some poisonous weeds and Vital Blood decoction from the drug store on the street and returned to Residence in Wanhua City.
In the afternoon.
In Residence room.
Thick white mist floated in the room, filling the room with a dense atmosphere.
In the center of the white mist, inside a round wooden barrel, a naked figure loomed.
The figure is none other than Lin Sheng.
At this time, his whole body was red as if from congestion, and the veins on his red skin were bulging like little green and black snakes that were constantly twisting.
The dark-colored medicinal solution in the wooden barrel was becoming thinner and thinner at a speed visible to the naked eye. Half an hour later, the white mist in the room dissipated, and the medicinal liquid in the wooden barrel had turned into water.
Lin Sheng opened his eyes and let out a breath.
"Ape Fetus Technique's breakthrough is getting closer."
The level of this martial arts Qingniao Chasing Star Finger is obviously beyond the first-class martial arts. It should be regarded as a relatively low-level real martial arts, or it might be more appropriate to name it Pseudo True Skill.
Although simply practicing this martial art cannot break through to Divine Form realm, it can directly reach peak Bone Transformation.
Its power is much stronger than that of Ape Fetus Technique. Not only is the gap not too outrageous, after all, it is the later realm that really widens the gap in power.
Since Qingniao Chasing Star Finger's cultivation is difficult, his current cultivation progress is not very fast.
Then simply practice Ape Fetus Technique and Three Corpses Soul Severing Palm first.
Especially the former is on the verge of a breakthrough, and it can take up to ten days to reach the completion of muscle strengthening. If you are lucky, the time may be shorter.
In the case of the latter, because it has just been broken through, it will take longer to go further, but it is still much faster than Qingniao Chasing Star Finger.
Red-haired Bandits had taken on this mission before, Gray Star Emissary, but both ended in mission failure and even lost their lives. Obviously, the strength of this group of bandits is not weak.
Therefore, the time spent practicing Qingniao Chasing Star Finger for a month may not be obvious, but Ape Fetus Technique is different.
Being able to break through to a great level of muscle training within 10 days will undoubtedly improve his strength a lot, making up for Three Corpses Soul Severing Palm's poor physical fitness increase.
As for Three Corpses Soul Severing Palm, although it is impossible to enter Blood Circulation realm in one month, you can also take advantage of this period to strengthen the poisonous power and take the power of this poisonous skill to a higher level.
There is also more confidence in completing this task.
Moreover, after Ape Fetus Technique breaks through and enters the body of Black Tiger Ape and White Ape, with double Agility Boost, his speed will be greatly enhanced. Even the agile Blood Circulation Practitioner may not be able to keep up with him. If things go against his will, he is sure to escape.
This was what he had planned for a long time, so he took on this task.
In the following time, Lin Sheng's practice was basically mechanical repetition, and most of the day was devoted to practice.
Ape Fetus Technique and Three Corpses Soul Severing Palm are seamlessly connected.
Seven days passed quickly.
In seven days, he only returned to the Seven Forms Sect for half a day, and then returned to Wanhua City Residence to practice hard. Ape Fetus Technique had only a small breakthrough to break through the bottleneck.
This day.
In the courtyard, Lin Sheng's figure is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and his movements are very agile.
There is a sound of breathing and exploding between movements.
In the corner of the yard, Da Huang was lying lazily on the ground, shaking his head and looking at the moving Lin Sheng, quite bored.
Suddenly Da Huang raised his head and looked at a black fly that was constantly circling in the sky.
The fly circled in the air, and then fell down towards Da Huang.
call!
Da Huang made a low purring sound, showing his white teeth, and the next moment his head poked out.
Just listen to a click.
Da Huang took one bite, and the fly flew to the other side, still circling around Da Huang, as if it was very interested in the furry thing below.
Huh... woof!
Da Huang shook its furry head left and right, trying to bite the fly to death, but the fly was extremely agile and flexible, so it failed several times. Instead, it accidentally bit its tongue and grinned in pain.
At this moment, Lin Sheng in the yard suddenly stopped moving, landed on one foot, closed his eyes tightly, and his whole figure was as motionless as a stone sculpture.
But compared to the external bottleneck, the Vital Blood inside was completely in a violent boil.
Even bursts of Vital Blood exciting muffled sounds came from the body.
The fly seemed to have lost interest in Da Huang at this time. After circling in the air, it looked for the target again. It soon chose the target on the sculpture-like Lin Sheng in the yard, and flapped its wings and flew towards Lin Sheng.
Da Huang barked non-stop, staring angrily at the flies in the air and chasing after them. From time to time, he jumped high in the air, trying to bite them off. However, he jumped only half a meter high with all his strength, which was far away from the flies.
Soon the fly flew over Lin Sheng, circled once, and then fell towards Lin Sheng's head.
But before it fell, a rough big hand was raised upwards, and with a flick of the finger, a strong wind shot out, cutting the fly into two pieces.
At this moment, the Vital Blood stirring sound in Lin Sheng's body suddenly stopped, but soon a series of brittle bone sounds like firecrackers sounded one after another.
Da Huang, who had just approached, was startled, and darted into the firewood pile in the corner, leaving only a pair of eyes looking out cautiously.
"Broken!"
Lin Sheng His eyes suddenly opened, a bright light flashed in his eyes, and with a low voice, he felt that the thin bottleneck in his body was completely broken.
"It's done!"
Feeling the lightness coming from his body, his brows relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.
He moved his body and felt better than ever.
With a little tiptoe, he has reached the roof quietly.
A civet cat was licking its fur on the roof. It quickly stopped and flew up in the next moment. It meowed and fled away.
The culprit is of course Lin Sheng.
"Yes, Ape Fetus Technique has made another breakthrough and is more agile in action... Now it's time to test the strength..."
After muttering a few words, his figure flashed and disappeared on the roof.
