There is no need to think too much at this moment. The wooden sign has already flew far away. If you don’t follow, you may be late. The figure jumped violently in the air, like a dragon snaking soaring.

The wooden sign flew very steadily, but it was extremely fast. Xiao Chen chased him all the way and found it unexpectedly. The wooden sign did not lead to the Hall of Merit, and finally stopped in an unknown courtyard.

Xiao Chen walked in with doubts. There were already ten people in the courtyard here, and the girl he just saw on the big tree on the sky was also here.

She saw that Xiao Chen had actually come here, and a little surprised expression appeared on her face. Xiao Chen clicked the number of people, and there were a total of ten people, including him.

Everyone has at least the realm of a middle-grade martial artist. The girl has the highest realm and the realm of a top-grade martial artist. It is a hurdle for a great martial artist to get to a martial artist. The sooner you enter the martial artist's realm, the higher your future achievements will be.

For this reason, the Tiandao Pavilion even explicitly stipulates that if you cannot reach the level of Martial Master before the age of twenty-five, you will be directly disqualified from the qualification of an inner disciple.

Except for Xiao Chen, the remaining few people knew each other and were gathering together and chatting in a low voice, "I don't know if I'm going this time, I'll be dead. I almost died there last time."

"Yes, if I hadn't been in a hurry to lack merit, I wouldn't have taken the risk of my life. I felt that my cultivation had reached a bottleneck recently, so I had to buy some elixirs to assist in my practice."

When Xiao Chen heard this, his face changed slightly. He looked at the neckline of these people - Changfeng - Wenxue -et. Now that they were all embroidered with only two golden threads, this is the symbol of ordinary disciples. None of these people are core disciples of the inner sect.

But how did they receive higher-level tasks in the sect? Did I be deceived? Xiao Chen remembered what happened on the second floor. The more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.

In fact, he was indeed deceived. On the second floor of the Merit Hall, the list of advanced tasks given to him by the man was extremely dangerous, and few people took over the accumulated tasks.

Everyone can take on it. The person did not show him the real normal higher-level tasks, and he didn't know the tricks.

"Hey! Which peak are you? What's your name? Good noodle. My name is Mu Xinya, from Konoha Peak, we just met." While Xiao Chen was thinking, the girl came over to say hello to Xiao Chen.

For some reason, Liu Ruyue and Liu Suifeng did not wear Qingyun Peak’s signature clothing, nor did Xiao Chen. They were wearing the clothes they brought, so outsiders could not tell at a glance which peak Xiao Chen came from.

Xiao Chen withdrew his thoughts and looked at the girl in front of him carefully. The girl was only sixteen or seventeen years old and had a high-quality appearance. She always had a smile on her face and two mandarin duck knives were inserted around her waist.

It gives people the feeling of being like a little girl next door, looking extremely lively. Xiao Chen smiled faintly and said, "Qingyun Peak, Ye Chen!"

Mu Xinya and the eight men looked at Xiao Chen in surprise and looked at him carefully. After a while, Mu Xinya spoke, "Didn't you go to the second floor first yesterday? Why did you take on this task? Didn't they show you other advanced tasks?"

Seeing that Xiao Chen was a little puzzled, Mu Xinya explained the reason in detail. After hearing this, Xiao Chen suddenly realized that no wonder that the man left for a long time before he came out of the task list.

Moreover, the risk factor of the task is very high, and the room for choice is extremely low. Such explanations with Mu Xinya can only show that this group of people have really fooled him.

Seeing that Xiao Chen's face was a little wrong, Mu Xinya advised: "Don't think too much. Just try to complete the task after you have already taken over the task. The punishment for failure of the task is very serious."

None of the other people were core disciples, and they were completely understandable about Xiao Chen's current feelings. They started to persuade him. After a while, Xiao Chen and these people became familiar with each other.

Among these people, a Beichenfeng disciple named Ma Cheng has the most experience in this mission. He has been there twice in total, and he has not kept telling everyone about his knowledge.

"The mission location is several hundred meters deep underground. Our main task is to protect ordinary people who are mining. There are often some strange things underground. Don't be careless. If there is something that cannot be dealt with, retreat immediately and greet the elders. It is important to save your life."

Pouffy!

As Ma Cheng was talking, a sound of footsteps came from outside. Three old men in black appeared in front of everyone. The three old men were embroidered with two long crossed golden swords on their collars.

This is the symbol of the Supreme Elder of Heavenly Sword. The Supreme Elder is in the Heavenly Sword Pavilion and has the power to directly distribute merit tasks.

The momentum of the three of them seemed unfathomable, and the momentum was as majestic as the vast ocean. Xiao Chen conservatively estimated that the three of them had at least the cultivation level of King Wu.

Especially the old man in the middle, the impression was even more profound. The old face was covered with wrinkles and clouds, and cold lights flashed from time to time in his eyes, which looked shocking.

The old man looked at everyone, frowned slightly, and said with some displeasure: "The number of people is getting smaller and smaller every time. There is actually a low-grade martial artist running in. The Merit Hall suppressed our mission so much."

The lower-grade martial artist is talking about Xiao Chen. Even if Xiao Chen is dissatisfied, he dares not be angry at this moment. He shut up and remain silent.

"Forget it, just make do with it. There is no big deal recently. It's relatively calm. Ten people are enough." A person next to him said.

The old man in the middle pointed, "I will tell you in detail about this mission now. Let's talk about it in a long story short, so I won't talk about it."

"The mission is very simple, it is to patrol underground, protect and monitor. Those ordinary people who dig spirit stone mines can complete the task within a month."

It's really simple. Saying it means not saying it. Xiao Chen slandered in his heart.

After the old man finished speaking, he took out a jade bottle and pointed it at everyone and said, "Relax, don't use your energy to resist!"

Whoosh!

A huge suction force came from the jade bottle. When Xiao Chen heard the old man's words, he did not use his energy to resist and was sucked into the jade bottle at once.

This jade bottle is actually a secret treasure. It has a small world in the bottle. In the void, it is pitch black and cannot see five fingers. The other nine people did not see it, and they did not know where they went.

In this dark space, time seemed to be still. Xiao Chen knew that this was similar to the space in his Qiankun Ring, and he was not panicked.

Sit cross-legged, enter the state of cultivation, slowly start the Purple Thunder Skill, and spend this boring time.

Bang!

I don’t know how long it has passed, but Xiao Chen felt that his feet were solid and he had already arrived in the space outside. He opened his eyes and appeared in a wet stone chamber.

When Xiao Chen stood up, he immediately felt that the rich spiritual energy around him was terrifying, which made people a little unbelievable, as if he could touch the illusory spiritual energy with his hand.

"Is this the spirit mine?" Mu Xinya next to her looked around curiously with her eyes wide open.

The remaining eight people, and the old man who brought them, did not appear, only the two of them here. There was a stone table and two simple stone beds in the stone room, and all kinds of daily necessities were available.

Could it be that in the next month, both of them would live in this place? Xiao Chen felt a little headache when he thought about it. On the other hand, Mu Xinya still had a smile on her face, looking around the surrounding environment, and turning the utensils in the stone chamber from time to time.

Brush! A stone door opened in the stone chamber, and a middle-aged man dressed in black walked in and said, "You two have been divided into a group. You will live here this month. If you have any questions in the future, you can find me. Let's go, I'll take you out to get to know the environment first."

Xiao Chen was really going to live together. He felt a little embarrassed when he thought about it and said to the man: "Senior, is there really nothing wrong with this?"

The middle-aged man said strangely: "What's the problem? You're still good at getting a cheaper one. There are two people living together here. If you want to change it, I can change it for you immediately."

"No, no!" Xiao Chen waved his hand quickly and said, if he lived with a man, it would probably be even more unbearable.

The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Don't call me senior or anything else. I'm not that old. Just call me Uncle Ye or Ye Wen, hurry up and leave."

"By the way, wait a moment, I almost forgot, hold this first."

The middle-aged man handed the two a chapter of a map made of animal skins. Xiao Chen took it and saw that it was a tunnel picture similar to a maze, with curved lines that were dazzling.

The eighth floor is written on the map, and the map is also found. The mine tunnel on this floor alone has a range of thousands of square meters, which is shocking.

Xiao Chen found his place on the map, and there was a light spot on it, and I don’t know what it was.

Ye Wen explained: "This light spot is the waist card on your waist. As long as the waist card is not lost, you don't have to worry about getting lost. If the waist card does not move for a long time except for rest time, it means that you are in danger and someone will support you immediately."

This probably also means surveillance. With this map, the whereabouts of the two of them were completely grasped, and Xiao Chen thought to himself.

Ye Wen then indicated on the map that the headquarters of this mine cave was located, and told them that the black lines were marked with dead ends.

After explaining for a long time, Xiao Chen and his friends also had a general understanding of the mine cave. They were no longer confused and ignorant.

After telling the two of them the mechanism of the stone gate, Ye Wen took them out to get to know the mine and didn't walk far from the stone chamber. Just in the dim mine, he saw a group of ordinary people with dark faces and had not taken a bath for a long time.

On the wide corridor, these people were holding the ore draft and digging hard on the ground, with their expressions appearing numb and not angry.

The task of digging spirit stones is arduous and huge. It would seem unrealistic to use the disciples of Tiandao Pavilion to dig it out. These people were sent here after signing a life-and-death contract with Tiandao Pavilion.
