He hurried without pause to the Divine Armory.
Li Xuanxiao immediately began selecting from the various treasured blades.
The blades in the Divine Armory were arranged neatly, clearly marked with prices, grades, and characteristics.
Iris Blade, mid-grade Profound Realm. 240 Contribution Points.
This blade had an elegant appearance, yet was exceptionally sharp! Iris patterns were carved into the hilt. Its blade was silver, smooth and exquisite...
Asura Blade, mid-grade Profound Realm, 300 Contribution Points.
The blade was dark black, giving off a deadly faint gleam, with mysterious patterns emerging across its body...
Nine Heavens Blade, low-grade Profound Realm. 180 Contribution Points.
This blade was entirely silver, interwoven with faint golden patterns, making it look exceptionally splendid...
Sky Curtain Blade...
After looking through dozens of blades in one breath, Li Xuanxiao felt dazzled, and for a moment, he actually suffered from indecision.
Li Xuanxiao laughed at himself. What indecision? He was just poor.
If he had a mountain of Contribution Points in hand, he would not be hesitating at all!
A weapon was a warrior's second life, so naturally, he had to choose a good one.
Li Xuanxiao did not think for long and settled on the most expensive Asura Blade.
The Divine Armory also belonged to the Demon Slayer Division, so there was absolutely no shortchanging when it came to weapons.
It truly delivered exactly what one paid for!
There were actually better blades available, such as a high-grade Profound Realm Fleeting Light Blade, which required exactly 500 Contribution Points.
Li Xuanxiao could have bought it too.
But he did not intend to spend all his Contribution Points on a weapon. He still needed to use some to exchange for a flying technique.
His Jade Token swept over the Divine Armory's special artifact, and 300 Contribution Points were immediately deducted.
The restrictions on the Asura Blade were lifted, and Li Xuanxiao grabbed it in one motion.
He weighed it in his hand. It was clearly far heavier than his previous Constable Blade.
And far better too!
After all, it was a mid-grade Profound Realm weapon. A thousand Constable Blades could not compare to it.
With the Asura Blade, his combat strength would rise to another level!
Using the same blade techniques and martial arts, their power would also increase greatly!
Fully satisfied, Li Xuanxiao sheathed the Asura Blade and turned toward the Technique Tower.
After going through the same process once more, Li Xuanxiao ultimately chose a Profound Realm flying technique—"Rainbow Light Travel."
This mid-grade Profound Realm technique should originally have cost more, but the technique itself came with a special effect.
Its speed was fast, but it was also exceptionally dazzling and far too ostentatious.
It was suitable neither for tracking nor for escape, so its price had been reduced to only 200 Contribution Points.
Li Xuanxiao did not care about that. Speed was what mattered most.
And this flying technique happened to excel in speed, even rivaling some high-grade Profound Realm flying techniques.
Its value for the price was quite high!
He immediately scanned and bought it!
Now that he had both weapon and technique, everything was ready.
Once he joined the Demon Slayer Division, he could accept missions and begin his journey of slaying demons and eliminating fiends!
Li Xuanxiao did not wait long. On the second day after submitting his application, the Jade Token given to him by the staff faintly lit up.
He turned it lightly in his hand, and a voice immediately came from it.
"Warrior Li Xuanxiao, hello! I am XXX, a staff member of the Talent Recruitment Department of the Pei Province branch of the Demon Slayer Division. Your application to join has been approved. Please report to the Mission Hall within three days..."
"Fuck!"
Li Xuanxiao cursed, recalling those days in his previous life when he had been worked like an ox and horse.
That was terrifying!
Taking a deep breath, Li Xuanxiao comforted himself. Times were different now.
Even if he was still a wage slave, he was now a high-ranking wage slave!
He immediately got up and headed for the Mission Hall.
Just as Si Miaoyin had said, among the Demon Slayer Division's eight halls, the Mission Hall truly was the most lax and least disciplined place.
The person receiving him merely gave him a set of standard Demon Slayer Division warrior robes and an identity Jade Token.
Then, after casually explaining some rules and precautions, the person left.
After changing into the standard attire representing a Demon Slayer Division warrior, Li Xuanxiao stood before the Mission Hall, somewhat dazed for a moment.
He had joined just like that?
Looking at the identity Jade Token in his hand, engraved with the three words "Mission Hall," Li Xuanxiao curled his lip.
Whatever!
He only needed to accept missions and start killing!
He still had 360 Demon Points left. Li Xuanxiao spent 100 points to bring "Rainbow Light Travel" to the beginner level.
Only 260 Demon Points remained, and he was poor enough to hear coins rattle again.
Moreover, not a single one of the Profound Realm techniques and martial arts he was currently cultivating had reached the Sublimity Realm.
He had to obtain more Demon Points as quickly as possible!
Having made up his mind, Li Xuanxiao immediately began selecting missions from the Mission Hall's manual.
Hundred Mile Peak, Rime Ice Plains, Golden Dragon Ridge...
Profound Realm demon infestations, Apex Realm Great Demons, Profound Realm Demon Kings...
Demons and fiends of different realms in different locations awaited Li Xuanxiao's selection, leaving him dazzled for a while.
After some thought, Li Xuanxiao found his direction.
First, they had to be Profound Realm Demon Kings!
Only demons and fiends at that level could provide considerable Demon Points and Contribution Points.
Then, the locations had to be as close as possible. He could not spend too much time traveling.
Finally, it would be best if he could accept several missions at once.
And the mission locations could not be too far apart from one another, for the same reason.
Only then could he accumulate Contribution Points and Demon Points with the highest efficiency!
With his criteria decided, choosing became much faster.
Very soon, Li Xuanxiao selected three missions.
Three Profound Realm Demon Kings!
And their locations were not far from one another.
"Very good!"
Li Xuanxiao accepted the missions directly and registered them at the Mission Hall.
The staff member responsible for registration gave him a surprised look.
"Are you sure you want to accept three Profound Realm missions at the same time?"
Li Xuanxiao nodded.
The staff member immediately said nothing further.
After explaining some precautions, the staff member registered them for him.
Once Li Xuanxiao had accepted the missions, he walked straight out of the Mission Hall. With Rainbow Light Travel activated, he shot into the sky in an instant!
He flew straight toward the mission location!
Near Valiant Lion City, outside the city walls, a Profound Realm Tiger Demon occupied a mountain and ruled it as king.
Over the years, it had ambushed and killed countless passing warriors, and had repeatedly attempted to storm the city.
Fortunately, this city was close to the Pei Province Demon Slayer Division, and a Profound Realm warrior of the Demon Slayer Division was stationed here. Otherwise, the city's people would have long become demon fodder.
On this day, the Profound Realm Tiger Demon had devoured an unknown number of warriors, and its realm had actually improved once again.
It brought several dozen descendants with it to stir up trouble once more, arriving outside the city to shout provocations.
The Profound Realm warrior of the Demon Slayer Division stationed here immediately rose into the air, looking down at the Tiger Demon below.
His brows furrowed. He keenly sensed that the other party's realm seemed to have improved again, and his heart sank at once.
For demons and fiends, raising their realm was far easier than it was for human warriors.
They could devour heavenly treasures, devour other demons and fiends, or...
Devour human warriors!
To demons and fiends, human warriors were the finest medicinal treasures for cultivation.
And the higher their realm, the greater the help their consumption provided for cultivation!
The Tiger Demon looked at the Demon Slayer Division warrior standing in the air, its scarlet tongue flicking outward.
If it could devour him, its realm would surely advance another layer!
Not only that, the many warriors in the city would all become food for its descendants!
Thinking this, greed became even more apparent in the Tiger Demon's eyes.
Now that its cultivation had advanced further, would this human warrior still be its opponent?
