Li Xingkong made up his mind and decided to choose this multi-person mission to carry out.

As for Yisu and the other two, their strength is limited, and Li Xingkong can't take care of them during the mission, so they definitely can't come together.

After bidding farewell to the others, Li Xingkong once again headed towards the location of the Exquisite Pagoda.

Although Yisu and the others were reluctant, they knew that for them, at the Nascent Soul stage, the task undertaken by an immortal like Li Xingkong would truly be a death sentence.

Trying to curry favor with Li Xingkong? That's something I wouldn't even dare to dream of.

Once again inside the Exquisite Pagoda, Li Xingkong stepped inside and went straight to the third floor.

Unlike the last time I came, there were many more immortals on the third floor this time. They floated around in twos and threes, carefully selecting task lists.

Upon seeing Li Xingkong's appearance, the immortals present glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally, but then paid no further attention.

He's just a new immortal, so he doesn't attract much attention.

Li Xingkong stood at the door and observed for a while, quickly learning the selection method for this task from the actions of others.

His Divine Sense connected with the pagoda's will, and countless selection criteria appeared before Li Xingkong.

"Number of participants, task type, duration, location..."

Numerous filters appeared before Li Xingkong, forming a densely packed list.

Li Xingkong filtered the number of people according to his own ideas.

As for other aspects, Li Xingkong and filtered out entries related to the Nether River.

Li Xingkong isn't confident he can deal with him yet, so it's best to eliminate anyone associated with him for now.

After all, reality isn't a novel, and he doesn't have that kind of explosive power. There won't be any unexpected events or sudden breakthroughs that would allow him to ignore the vast difference in strength between the two sides and achieve a counterattack.

An old monster like Nether River has been lurking in this Era of Chaos for who knows how long, and no one knows how many trump cards he has up his sleeve.

Finally, Li Xingkong did another round of screening, selecting the tasks that only needed a few more people to begin execution.

Since this is our first mission to broaden our horizons, the sooner the better.

After a process of filtering, Li Xingkong discovered that many of the mission lights that covered the entire third floor went out in an instant.

This should be the effect of the filtering process.

Li Xingkong stepped forward one by one and selected the nearest one to examine.

"Pursue the Spirit Insect Immortal. This fiend's true form is the first locust in the world, possessing bizarre abilities and the capacity to transform into countless forms. Three immortals skilled in sealing and suppressing it are required to accompany it. (1/3)."

A closed-off crackdown? No, no.

Li Xingkong shook his head and looked at the next one.

"To seize the power of the Fire of Departure, there is a god-demon Li Fire Shi who possesses the ability to complete the Fire of Departure. It requires 12 water-element immortals to set up the One-Origin Kui Water Formation and take it down in one fell swoop. (9/12)"

Sunflower water function? No, no.

Li Xingkong scratched his head, then re-selected the tasks, removing those with special requirements as well.

The number of tasks around us has decreased again, but thankfully there are still some to choose from.

"Major mission: The Flying Cloud Pass battlefield is about to open, featuring clashes between immortals. (71/72)"

Wow, so many people!

The task description was vague and incomplete, yet the number of people signing up was unusually high.

Looking at the expressions of the immortals around him, who were calm and even chatting and laughing, it seemed that the task was not too difficult.

This is an opportunity not to be missed, I accepted it.

Li Xingkong channeled his Divine Sense into the flying star formed from the mission, and immediately saw 71 become 72. The flying star formed from the mission suddenly split apart, transforming into seventy-two rays of light that flew in all directions.

Li Xingkong was closer, and the rosy light fell directly into his hands.

The glow of the sunset conveyed only very simple information: the time and place of the meeting.

There were also many immortals around who had received the radiant glow. The moment they received it, they all stood up and scattered.

"Fellow Daoist, why haven't you taken action yet?"

Just as Li Xingkong was looking around, someone suddenly put their arm around Li Xingkong shoulder.

Li Xingkong turned around and saw a slender female immortal, dressed in simple, unadorned robes, wearing a large straw hat, and carrying a tightly wrapped sword on her back.

Her face possessed an exceptionally heroic air, with two sword-like eyebrows that looked as if they had been cleaved by a knife, making her appear remarkably spirited.

He was less of an immortal and more of a chivalrous knight-errant.

Li Xingkong also saw the glowing light in her hand; this must be one of Li Xingkong's teammates.

"A mission? Don't laugh, fellow Daoist, this is my first time carrying out a mission, and I really don't know what I need to prepare."

Li Xingkong quite frank; it was just the first time, and his teammates had no right to mention his elimination anyway, so there was nothing to hide.

"Hehe, you're quite honest."

The female fairy laughed.

"You're on your first mission? You probably Earthly Capital Flying Cloud Pass is?"

"I humbly request your guidance, fellow Daoist."

"Well, it's not a good place anyway. Since we've both taken on the same mission, how about we keep each other company?"

The female immortal stared at Li Xingkong for a few moments, then ignored Li Xingkong question and abruptly spoke.

"Uh... I still don't know your name..."

Li Xingkong did not agree immediately. Although everyone in the camp was a fellow Daoist of the Jade Void Sect, Li Xingkong still felt something was off.

"My name is Liu Shinian, a person from the Quantum Era. I'm a man of integrity, and I'm a truly honest person."

The female immortal laughed heartily, not only revealing her name but also charming Li Xingkong.

Integrity?

Li Xingkong looked at Liu Shinian and examined her again. The conceptual information she exuded was indeed very positive.

Does an immortal who governs integrity possess any fighting power? Li Xingkong expressed his doubts.

"My name is Li Xingkong, and I am a Human Immortal."

However, despite his doubts, Li Xingkong still gave his name first.

As they spoke, Li Xingkong realized that Liu Shinian was not lying.

He originally intended to say that he was a Dao Immortal who Traversal through time, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't bring himself to say it.

Although the Dao of Self was used to conceal it, in front of the Dao Immortal himself, this Dao of Self seemed to have lost its effect.

In front of Liu Shinian, he lost the ability to lie.

hiss...

Li Xingkong suddenly realized that although this ability wasn't strong in direct combat, it was an absolute godsend for stabilizing the rear.

No one can lie, which means no one can cause trouble in front of her.

All infiltration and schemes will be rendered ineffective within her jurisdiction.

" Human Immortal are quite rare on this battlefield, but who cares? Everyone who comes to this battlefield has some skills. Come on, Fellow Daoist Li, let's work together."

Liu Shinian, as if they were old friends, grabbed Li Xingkong and dragged him away without giving him a chance to refuse.
